Great Emperor Myriad - Chapter 59 - The Three Great Martial Arts
Chapter 59: The Three Great Martial Arts
“With a clear sword intent, plants and rocks can be used as swords. Is this… Sword intent’s state?!”
Nangong Qing was moved. Although she heard that Ling Xiao had comprehended a punch’s purposeful conception, she was utterly shocked when she saw that he had even arrived at sword intent’s state.
Ling Xiao moved!
Swish, swish, swish!
A few blinding sword lights could be seen as Ling Xiao wielded the Silver Moon Sword. As if it had come to life, the sword shadows and lights filled the air.
When the starlight sprinkled down from the sky, he was surrounded by innate True Qi that eventually transformed into sharp sword lights that gathered onto the Silver Moon Sword.

Bzz!
The edge of the sword dazzled as the sword vibrated. Then, a star appeared and the sword’s might increased drastically. It was as if the invisible sword domain had expanded.
However, that was only the beginning.
The faster the sword light moved, star after star gathered on the Silver Moon Sword. Between each move, Ling Xiao was vaguely seen holding seven stars, drifting around like a divine dragon.
Boom!
When the seven stars appeared all at the same time, his aura rose to the maximum and a bright full moon appeared behind him. He stood still with the sword, and as if a sword light that could penetrate the void had shot out from his eyes, a blinding sword light was seen shooting toward a faraway cliff.
At that moment, Nangong Qing somehow saw Ling Xiao as Nangong Xuan because he carried a master’s unparalleled momentum.
Consequently, the faraway cliff exploded and left a sword mark of over ten feet long and a few feet deep. It looked nothing like the work of a mortal world’s sword!
“Full Moon Sword Intent, this is Full Moon Sword Intent!”
Nangong Qing mumbled and she was astounded.
In her eyes, although the power of Seven Stars to Moon Sword performed by Ling Xiao was slightly weaker than when Nangong Xuan performed it, the pure sword intent produced by the former was finer than the latter. Moreover, there was a faint vibration that attracted Nangong Qing to the sword domain.
“For Seven Stars to Moon Sword, the will comes first before the spirit, the heart comes first before the sword, and the stars come first before the full moon. If you keep the vastness of the Sun and the Moon in mind, the stars will naturally change, and the seven stars will kill anything in their way!”
When Ling Xiao finally stopped, his face had a ruddy complexion and he showed no signs of weariness at all, which truly surprised Nangong Qing.
Even though Seven Stars to Moon Sword was an Earthly level inferior martial art, Nangong Qing would exhaust almost all of her True Qi if she were to perform it, yet Ling Xiao was completely unaffected.
Of course, this was because she was unaware of the formidable Sky Devouring Secret Technique that replenished his True Qi as soon as they were consumed.
Nevertheless, her attention was focused on what he had said earlier.
“The will comes first before the spirit, the heart comes first before the sword…” she mumbled.
Eventually, her eyes lit up before she took back her Silver Moon Sword from Ling Xiao as he stood up, and she began to dance in the bamboo forest.
Nangong Qing and Ling Xiao were different.
When Ling Xiao wielded the sword, he constantly pressed forward like the unstoppable shooting stars in the sky. It was as if he had become an unsurpassed God of swords, emitting boundless rays.
On the other hand, Nangong Qing fluttered in the wind beautifully like a fairy from a moon palace. The sword lights she produced were exceptionally exquisite yet cold, like dense starlights that carried a hint of killing intent.
She looked as if she had just gone through baptism. As her sword lights became finer, they started to gather until the fourth star eventually came together!
At one sword four stars, her sword force became fiercer.
Finally, when she sheathed her sword, her cold temperament had grown stronger. It was as though she had become one with the starlights.
“Not bad, not bad, that was one sword four stars. If this goes on, you’ll be able to achieve one sword seven stars, the Pinnacle stage!” Ling Xiao was delighted when he realized that Nangong Qing had attained a higher perception than he had expected.
“I’m still far from where you are! That leaves me wondering how you’ve been cultivating!”
Nangong Qing laughed. She was also elated by her improvement in Seven Stars to Moon Sword.
“Of course it’s due to my peerless talent, and that I’m supreme. The so-called geniuses and I are like the firefly lights and moonlight, they’re incomparable to me!”
Ling Xiao laughed confidently.
“You’re not humble at all!”
Nangong Qing shook her head as she chuckled.
“Cultivate well. If you can comprehend the Full Moon Sword Intent before you advance to Dragon Tiger Boundary, I’ll pass you a Heavenly level sword martial art. You won’t be presentable as my maid if you only learn an Earthly level inferior martial art!” Ling Xiao mentioned.
“A Heavenly level sword martial art? You’re boasting!”
Nangong Qing mocked as she knew that there might not be a Heavenly level martial art in the Ancient Great Barenland. Even in martial art sacred places like Sun Moon Stars Sect, martial arts of that level were sect-protection treasures.
Although she felt that it was ridiculous, she was somewhat hopeful. After all, Ling Xiao had created many miracles.
‘If he can find Longevity Supreme Scripture, perhaps Heavenly level martial arts aren’t just a dream?’
After Ling Xiao had taught her more cultivation knowledge for Seven Stars to Moon Sword, Nangong Qing left happily like a child.
Following that, Ling Xiao spent his time very leisurely.
Although his cultivation was already at ninth tier True Qi Boundary, he was not in a hurry to advance to the next boundary. So, he polished his True Qi while he cultivated martial arts, and spent his spare time giving Liu Chuanxiong and the others a few pointers.
Since True Qi Boundary was the foundation of martial arts, Ling Xiao was not in a rush to advance to the next boundary so soon. The stronger his foundation, the more profound he would be and the further he could go.
In terms of martial art, he chose three for himself. They were Titanium Demon-Slaying Punch and Immeasurable Light Dark Sword, which were both an Earthly level peerless martial arts, as well as Cloud Dragon’s Nine Changes which was an Earthly level peerless body technique martial art!
While the three great martial arts were all Earthly level peerless martial arts, they were the most suitable ones for Ling Xiao at the moment. Besides, all three of them had their follow-ups that could help him advance to Grandmaster Boundary or even Celestial Boundary!
Titanium Demon-Slaying Punch was a Buddhist martial art that uses the purposeful conception of a titan’s punch to slay demons. It was tremendously powerful as cultivating it to the extreme could not only break mountains and rivers, but it could also crack the earth with a stomp.
Immeasurable Light Dark Sword was, in fact, the combination of two sword techniques — Immeasurable Light Sword and Immeasurable Dark Sword. The force produced by this combination of light and dark could be comparable with any ordinary Heavenly level martial arts’!
Cloud Dragon’s Nine Changes was a top-notch body technique. One who cultivated it to the extreme would transform into a cloud dragon that could roam Heaven and Earth. Not only would one be so fast that one could travel a thousand miles in a flash, but one could also hide in the clouds with the help of Heaven and Earth’s force. It was both mysterious and wonderful.
For half a month, Longevity Sect was very peaceful. Ling Xiao remained at ninth tier True Qi Boundary, but since he had polished his True Qi to a Pinnacle stage, his Sea of Qi was now filled with faint golden True Qi. This meant that he could advance to Spiritualization Boundary anytime now!
Moreover, he had also cultivated the Titanium Demon-Slaying Punch, Immeasurable Light Dark Sword, and Cloud Dragon’s Nine Changes — the three great martial arts to an Intermediate stage!
After all, since Ling Xiao had comprehended a purposeful conception, he had no issues with cultivating Earthly level martial arts even though they were supposedly difficult to be cultivated.
Although he was still at ninth tier True Qi Boundary, his combat power had reached a fearsome level!
With the three Earthly level peerless martial arts — Legendary Dragon’s Body, Sky Devouring Spiritual Seed, and the double explosiveness from Dragon Violence the divine gift, Ling Xiao was confident about triumphing over Dragon Tiger Boundary masters.
He could even kill them in battles!
