Chapter 1843: Chapter 616: Sword Embryo Effect, Nine Nether Mastiff Charges to Tier 3! (Part 2) Yet at this moment, Lu Changsheng did not use any sword technique or display any Sword Dao divine ability. He simply activated the power of the sword embryo. "Phew!" A moment later, Lu Changsheng stopped, slightly exhausted and panting, looking at the sword embryo in his hand with growing fondness, unable to part with it. Holding this sword embryo felt as though he was directly wielding a peerless sword technique. In fact, Lu Changsheng felt that using the "Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture" was less straightforward than simply unleashing the sword embryo’s origin power. "Although I’ve acquired the ’Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture’ and consider myself a sword cultivator, compared to a sword cultivator like Xuanjian True Monarch, I’m still lacking." "If this sword embryo were in the hands of a sword cultivator like him, it would transform into a truly supreme divine weapon." Lu Changsheng was very self-aware of his level in Sword Dao. Even though he possessed the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, his strength was far beyond that of a typical sword cultivator. Yet, compared to top-tier sword cultivators, there was still a gap. For instance, under the same realm, not to mention the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, he might not even measure up to his son, Lu Qingshan. In the previous battle with the double-headed Flood Dragon, he witnessed the swordsmanship of Xuanjian True Monarch. Sleek and efficient, without a trace of embellishment, effortlessly and thoroughly breaking ten thousand laws with a single sword! Relying on the system’s inheritance of the Seven Luminaries Great Freedom Sword Scripture, he would need to accumulate and settle for over a hundred years to elevate his Sword Dao to that level. This required forging his own path in cultivation techniques and comprehending his own Sword Intent! "But it’s enough, had I possessed this sword embryo during my confrontation with the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master, I might not have been able to kill him, but I could have defeated him." At this point, Lu Changsheng recalled his past contention with the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master. At that time, his Yin Yang Great Mingling Millstone was difficult to push forward and unable to breach the defense of the opponent’s lifebound spiritual treasure. However, this innate sword embryo in his hand was comparable to a spirit treasure embryo, even some low-grade spiritual treasures. And at that time, in his condition, having elevated to the half-step Nascent Soul stage, if he had exerted all his strength, he estimated that he could unleash the power of a middle-grade spiritual treasure with this sword embryo. "Hmph, when I head to Jin Kingdom, if he dares provoke me, I’ll test my sword on him!" Lu Changsheng snorted lightly, feeling as though with a sword in hand, the world was at his command. "Moreover, refining it later could potentially enhance its power and effectiveness." Though refining might cause the sword embryo to absorb his magic power mechanism, affecting future crafting of heaven-reaching spiritual treasures or nurturing a sword embryo Dao body. But Lu Changsheng now grew increasingly fond of this sword embryo, finding it more and more handy, naturally planning to use it first. After all, for decades, apart from his crafted Yin Yang Chart, he hadn’t had a truly handy magical treasure. Now this sword embryo gave him a thrilling sensation. "Moreover, this sword embryo, which will only be used to nurture a sword embryo Dao body later, what’s the harm in it bearing traces of my magic power mechanism? It might even inherit more of the Chaos Body’s characteristics." Lu Changsheng didn’t mind this at all. Having a great treasure, what’s wrong with using it first as a father? He certainly wouldn’t forge any heaven-reaching spiritual treasure, but rather use it to nurture a Sword Embryo Dao Body. However, to nurture a sword embryo Dao body, it would be at least a few decades before seeing any progress. During this time, it’s not meant to collect dust, is it? Though it’s usable even without refining, yet not refining would slightly compromise its power, and the cultivation world’s divine abilities are numerous; among them are certainly some secret treasures that seize others’ treasures. Should he ever encounter such a cultivator outside who might snatch away his sword embryo during combat, he would have nowhere to cry. "With this sword embryo, just breaking through to the late stage of Core Formation, refining the divine abilities, and upgrading the law domain, then I can head to the Five Poisons Cult!" Having witnessed the strength of Nascent Soul True Lords previously, Lu Changsheng felt that breaking through to the late stage of Core Formation would allow for slight resistance against them. Now with this innate sword embryo, he felt even more confident. Though against Xuanjian True Monarch or Azure Phoenix True Monarch, who have Dao Soldiers and quasi-Fourth Rank spiritual beasts, he had little confidence. Yet against those like Heavenly Corpse Sect Master or Five Poisons Cult Leader, who were once simultaneously challenged by Xuanjian True Monarch, he had some degree of assurance. Even if he weren’t a match, he could still retreat unharmed! "If during these times, another sword Dao spiritual body were to emerge at home, it would be even better." Lu Changsheng thought of the previous ’Void Spirit Body’ that had enhanced him significantly. If at this moment a sword Dao spiritual body, even the least potent one, appeared, he could quickly elevate his Sword Dao level by a notch, thereby enhancing the innate sword embryo’s power even further. "But it’s alright if there isn’t one, once the sword embryo Dao body is born in the future, I, Lu Changsheng, would be a truly peerless sword cultivator!" Lu Changsheng twirled the sword embryo into a sword flower, then turned to head back to the Great Dream Immortal City. ... Returning to the City Lord Mansion, Lu Changsheng frowned slightly, feeling as though he had forgotten something. After pondering for a long time, his expression cleared up. Earlier, he was so excited by the lottery that he forgot to check on his son Lu Quanzhen’s situation. "System." Lu Changsheng silently called in his heart, then opened the system interface of his son Lu Quanzhen. [Name: Lu Quanzhen] [Life Span: 80/320] [Talent: Fourth Grade Spiritual Root, Kunpeng Demon Body (Upper Class Spirit Body)] [Cultivation Level: Core Formation First Layer] [Talent: Combat Law Compatibility (72%)] "Tsk tsk tsk, an 80-year-old Golden Core cultivator, if this were to spread, it would surely cause a sensation in Jiang Country." Lu Changsheng looked at his son’s interface, feeling quite accomplished. In the Jiang Country Cultivation Realm, forming a Core before the age of a hundred is considered a genius. And his son Lu Quanzhen was just 80 years old. But the Coagulation Crystal Elixir and Core Formation Spiritual Objects for Lu Quanzhen were given by himself, even simpler than the true inheritors among the Immortal Sects, saving a lot of time. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, obtaining the Coagulation Crystal Elixir and Core Formation Spiritual Objects would require at least decades of effort.
