Divine Brilliance

Maybe he wanted to test him or he was really bored. Shiyue waited for a moment until Shi Wuji flipped the True Dragon Sword Manual to the final page before he smiled and asked, “Do you have any questions?”

Shi Wuji shook his head and remained silent. After keeping the book, he stood up and pulled out the sword by his waist and stabbed out.

Weng!

A ring sounded with the sword body as the center. The surrounding air rippled.

One could hear a soft dragon roar.

Shiyue’s gaze instantly lit up. Just this sword alone showed that the kid in front of him had obtained 20% of the true meaning of the Wind Cloud Dragon Sword.

However, due to his lack of cultivation, the strength of the sword was restricted.

Such monstrous comprehension…

Shi Wuji was in deep thought before he slashed out with a second sword.

Another Dragon roar echoed, but this time it made use of the power of the wind and clouds around.

Just like this, after each sword he stabbed out, Shi Wuji would stop and think about it for a moment. After dozens of swords passed, suddenly a Dragon shape appeared above the sword body.

However, the moment the Dragon Shadow formed, the steel sword in his hand couldn’t take it anymore and shattered.

Shi Wuji frowned. He couldn’t train it anymore, so he stopped, “I have no questions. This sword manual is so specific, from foundations until the final Wind Cloud Sword. There are so many diagrams and pictures that have his intent within. The more complicated parts have annotations and explanations. When I look at it, I find it really smooth. I feel that even without another person teaching me, I would still be able to cultivate this manual with no problems.”

“That is true!”

Shiyue nodded his head, “I heard that the initial version was not like this and one could only cultivate a small amount. Only when Zong Shou stepped into Grade-9 a year ago and fixed it did it get better. Now there are over 300 people in Gantian Mountain who practice this. Actually, this sword manual not only has the True Dragon Sword Technique, it also has many of Zong Shou’s Sword Path learnings. Even if you don’t cultivate this sword, you can still comprehend some mysteries.”

Based on what he knew, because of the Nine Sword Manuals, Gantian Mountain currently had become a shrine for factionless Martial Cultivators in the world.

In the future, this Sword Manual’s value would increase in folds.

The matter of Dragon Shadow stepping into the End Realm would spread across the Cloud World in a short time. The Sword Technique which he passed down would definitely be eyed on and craved by all cultivators.

Be it those Low-grade ones or those Celestial and Saint Realm Experts, they would all take a look at it.

Naturally, the Sword Manual itself was something amazing.

Nine types of Grade Seven Legendary Sword Techniques which were several grades higher than the martial path techniques that spread around in the Cloud World.

Dragon Shadow passed his tribulation when he was facing death, become one of the seven End Realm Experts of the Cloud World. His Nine Dragon Shadow Sword definitely changed.

Grade-11 Godlike or even Grade-12 World Destroying was also possible…

Shiyue himself couldn’t take it, running to Gantian Mountain City after he battled Zong Shou.

He exhausted all his methods, but only managed to make a copy of this one book.

Shi Wuji’s eyes shone, “I heard that as long as you are a civilian of Gantian Mountain you can cultivate if you wish. It seems like it is true!”

He had followed Shiyue to see the Book Hiding Pavilion at the waist of Gantian Mountain.

There were a dazzling number of Spell Books and Martial Path Techniques. The Nine True Dragon Techniques were definitely not the only few Grade Seven Manuals.

As for Grade-8 Earth Shaking Martial Path manuals, there were actually 30 of them. It was said to be collected by Zong Shou over these years.

As long as one was good enough, one could take one to read.

On the streets, there were a whole bunch of cultivators, Spirit Masters were like rain. One could see dojos everywhere.

When one toured the streets, beggars were pretty much non-existent. Even those Nobles followed the rules and they looked no different from normal people.

Shiyue was startled when he heard this. He didn’t expect that this was something that Shi Wuji would care about.

However, thinking about it, looking back at his birth and his past, he understood.

“Not totally! To read this True Dragon Sword Manual without enough talent and without working for Gantian Mountain for 3-5 years, one would only be disappointed!”

Shiyue shook his head, however, his face looked impressed, “This Zong Shou really does surprising things, he is also really scary. Our Great Shang, apart from the military, all Martial Cultivation is banned. They suppress all the factions and factionless cultivators. However, Zong Shou has gone in the opposite direction, just that Book Hiding Building would be able to collect the hearts of most of the factionless cultivators in the world. There are also so many dojos that will give rise to numerous factions and sects. Their martial environment truly is really good!”

Shi Wuji laughed when he heard this. He didn’t fully agree with the first few sentences

Having a place to learn is better than not having any chance at all. As for working for Gantian Mountain, that wasn’t much.

When he started to gain wisdom a few years ago, he understood that in order to get something in this world, one had to give up some things. One couldn’t hope for free things, the gods wouldn’t toss treasures down from the sky.

He didn’t pay close attention to the last few sentences. Shiyue’s tone changed, “As long as one is a cultivator, one will like to abuse their strength to break the laws. All in all, it will cause chaos! If those people with nefarious intentions learn strong martial techniques and spells they will definitely cause problems. Although this martial atmosphere could increase their strength, it can also create huge problems. If I can lead in the future, I will ban martial arts and allow the Cloud World to be safe.”

Shi Wuji looked at Shiyue with a weird expression, hearing the determination in his tone.

He felt that what he said made sense. However, for some reason, his heart didn’t fully agree with it.

He walked on the streets of Gantian Mountain, but didn’t see anyone using their strength to bully others.

Thinking about it, Shi Wuji comprehended something.

Looking at how Zong Shou ruled, he wanted to combine the interests of all factions and sects together with Gantian Mountain to accept them into the country system.

He wanted to allow those Martial Cultivators and Spirit Masters to willingly maintain the law and order.

His third uncle was looking at the big picture and the long term. He hated cultivators committing evil acts. When everyone couldn’t cultivate anymore, then there would be no one who could use their strength to bully others.

The first perspective required spending huge amounts of time and energy compared to the second.

In his eyes, it was tough to differentiate the better solution.

However, Shi Wuji wasn’t interested in this. Seeing Shiyue talk a lot today, he asked curiously, “Three days ago, who won the battle between Zong Shou and you!”

Shiyue sucked in a deep breath and coughed. Shi Wuji asked this nearly 10 times every day up, causing him to feel really annoyed.

Thinking about it, Shiyue sighed. His nephew was good at everything, but when he was stubborn, he really gave one a headache.

“Treat that battle as one that no one won nor lost!”
