The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2275: Chapter 2275: Diligent Spell Cultivation

Jing Yan, transitioning from the Immortal Rhythm to the Immortal Venerable, like other cultivators, had to cross that seemingly insurmountable barrier.

In the Chaos World, he was at the Title Controller level, equivalent to the Immortal Rhythm Nether Sky Realm in the Immortal Domain. Although he lacked experience with the Immortal Venerable Realm, he devised a Virtualization Technique at the Immortal Rhythm level, giving him a direction toward nearing the Immortal Venerable. Yet even so, the journey remained arduous, requiring slow and careful exploration.

With the previous progress, stepping into the Immortal Venerable Realm indeed required a long time for Jing Yan.

But now, after mastering the Shadow Soul Kill, that barrier between Immortal Rhythm and Immortal Venerable loosened significantly, thinning the fog before Jing Yan.

"Next, it’s time to cultivate each of these ten plus Immortal Rhythm and Immortal Venerable level spells."

"If I can create an Immortal Venerable level spell myself, then..." Jing Yan’s eyes gleamed with brilliance.

For an Immortal Rhythm Netherworld Realm cultivator to create an Immortal Venerable level spell is truly unheard of.

Even in the entire history of the Nine Days of the Immortal Domain, individuals capable of such feats are rare, possibly none emerging in a whole era.

It’s known that it’s not easy even for Immortal Venerable level cultivators to create Immortal Rhythm level spells, let alone an Immortal Rhythm level cultivator creating an Immortal Venerable level spell.

If spread, surely no one would believe it.

Yet Jing Yan wishes to give it a try. After all, he isn’t creating out of thin air but has a basis. The Chaos Sword was gradually created and perfected as an Immortal Domain level spell following his journey of cultivation. Initially, the Chaos Sword was merely a Dao Skill level spell.

Which means, the Chaos Sword has a foundation, and it’s not entirely impossible.

If Jing Yan can indeed develop an Immortal Venerable level spell, then he might be very close to the Immortal Venerable Realm. Perhaps it’s possible to directly leap into the Immortal Venerable Realm.

Jing Yan focuses his mind, first withdrawing a magic technique book of Immortal Rhythm level, then taking out the materials needed for the cultivation of this spell.

The upcoming period involves steadily mastering this spell, which is a Five Elements Attribute spell. Jing Yan finds practicing it relatively easy. Moreover, since it’s only an Immortal Rhythm level spell, with Jing Yan’s current strength, it’s much easier than when he practiced the Seven Luminaries Technique. Practicing the Seven Luminaries Technique didn’t consume much time for Jing Yan either.

As time passes, one by one, the Virtualization Techniques of the Immortal Rhythm level are mastered by Jing Yan. Subsequently, Jing Yan begins practicing Immortal Venerable level spells. Among these, the Nine Heavens Divine Fire is the hardest to cultivate. If the Nine Heavens Divine Fire is mastered, its power surpasses that of the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique.

If Jing Yan can wield the Nine Heavens Divine Fire in tandem with the Great Demon Seal Suppression Technique, the showcased power could make even formidable Immortal Venerables retreat.

Jing Yan plans to save the Nine Heavens Divine Fire for last.

...

Residence of Bai Family Patriarch Bai Wentian.

A figure hurriedly walked in from outside.

"Greetings, Patriarch." The figure slightly bowed.

The person was a white-haired elder with a profound aura, evidently a strong force in the Immortal Venerable Realm.

"Elder Yi, how are things?" Bai Wentian’s eyes lit up as he urgently inquired upon seeing this Elder Yi.

"Fairly smooth."

"However, from now on, our Bai Family is completely under Lord Bu Yun’s command," Elder Yi said.

"Alas, at this point, what else can we do? As long as Lord Bu Yun is willing to assist, it’s not a problem for the Bai Family to follow his lead," Bai Wentian sighed lightly, yet his expression showed some relief.

"Elder Yi, thank you for your hard work; you can rest now." Bai Wentian continued.

"Alright," Elder Yi responded.

After Elder Yi left, Bai Wentian sat alone in the room, meditating without moving for a long time.

Recently, the Bai Family has been under tremendous pressure, almost suffocating.

The Bai Family offended an incredibly terrifying force.

This force announced plans to retaliate against the Bai Family. The whole Iron Bay knows about this, and many say this time the Bai Family is doomed. It’s incredibly difficult to shake off attention from such a force.

Bai Wentian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, going through countless relations, expending immense resources, barely securing an opportunity to communicate with the other party. But the conditions proposed by the other party were utterly unacceptable to the Bai Family.

Compensating with a massive amount of resources would be manageable, as long as the Bai Family could afford it, which is far better than annihilation. Yet the other party also demanded that Bai Wentian hand over Bai Bingli. How could Bai Wentian accept such terms?

And not complying means the other side intends to act, not only to wipe out the Bai Family but also to raze Bai City to the ground. Everyone in Bai City would die.

The opponent didn’t specify when they’d act, but Bai Wentian knew that they could move against Bai City at any moment. If they do, it would mean the end for Bai City, which would have no power to resist.

As a last resort, Bai Wentian sent Elder Yi to meet a significant figure, a bigwig named Bu Yun in Iron Bay. In Iron Bay, perhaps only Bu Yun and a few other key figures could assist the Bai Family in resolving this crisis.

Today, Elder Yi returned, bringing Bai Wentian some favorable news that Lord Bu Yun agreed to aid. Since Lord Bu Yun agreed, he wouldn’t break his word, so Bai Wentian breathed a sigh of relief. Though the cost of gaining Lord Bu Yun’s help is substantial, with the Bai Family needing to depend on Lord Bu Yun from now on, it’s far better than being wiped out or having the city devastated.

After quietly sitting for a long time, Bai Wentian shared the news Elder Yi brought back with other high-level family members. Upon hearing the news, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

With Lord Bu Yun’s help, the opposing force should be somewhat apprehensive, right? Even if they truly act against the Bai Family and Bai City, Lord Bu Yun should have the means to contend with that force. This Lord Bu Yun stands at the very pinnacle of the entire Iron Bay, commanding many strong individuals, with over a dozen cities depending on him.

These matters are mainly understood by the Bai higher-ups, as those in the middle and lower ranks don’t have access to this confidential information. They’ve heard a great force threatens the Bai Family but aren’t aware of the specifics, nor are the cultivators within Bai City.

Jing Yan, cultivating within the Bai Family, is especially unaware, having not left his room for a long time, continually practicing those spells. After millennia of secluded hard work, Jing Yan now only has the strongest and most difficult Nine Heavens Divine Fire spell yet to master.

Although a lot of Netherworld Crystal Stone was consumed, to master so many spells in such a short time, using some Netherworld Crystal Stone is fully worthwhile.
