With Cultivation Simulator in a Chaotic World

[You have refined Nine-Element Heavy Water, and all seven attributes are complete.]

[In the same year, you stepped into the Black Tortoise Realm.]

Zhao Fu returned to the Lion Heart Empire.

Martial Artists are most vulnerable during breakthroughs.

Previously, Li Rucang was there to protect the path.

At this moment, the only one Zhao Fu could truly trust was his own Salted Fish Ancestor.

The ancestor stood at the entrance of the secret chamber, looking out over the entire Imperial Capital through the window.

"This old man has still come to this place."

Behind him, the door of the secret chamber opened wide.

A young man in a black robe walked out.

The young man was extraordinary, with deep, ocean-like eyes and a profound aura.

Grandmaster Realm, also the Black Tortoise Realm.

The ancestor felt the swirling Spiritual Qi around him and sighed helplessly.

"How did our little Zhao Family produce a True Dragon like you?"

"Wasn’t the old True Dragon from the Zhao Family too?" Zhao Fu smirked.

"I can’t compare to you," the ancestor shook his head.

"When I was your age, I was still hardening my body."

"This old man is old, doesn’t want to move at all. You’re making a breakthrough in the Imperial Capital; it’s bound to cause quite a stir. These old bones have no choice but to get moving."

Zhao Fu spoke with respect, "Didn’t you say there was a way to the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect in the Imperial Capital, and that the Dao Inference Sect had an unrivaled Sword Technique hidden there?"

The old Salted Fish, though unconcerned, even hoped Zhao Fu could be more ordinary.

Yet, when Zhao Fu asked about Divine Weapons and Skills, the old man still thought of his family descendant.

The fluctuations of the breakthrough quickly attracted many strong individuals in the Imperial Capital.

In the Celestial Essence Realm, a Black Tortoise Realm expert is a top-tier strategic force.

Even during the southern war of the Lion Heart Empire, when Zhao Fu participated as part of the Wind Wolf Army, Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators rarely appeared.

However...

.........

"However, Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators are still far inferior to Golden Core Cultivators."

Jiang Ming’s eyes showed contemplation.

Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators possess the life level of a Golden Core Master.

But it’s only the life level.

In cultivation, both life and skills are cultivated together.

Life is the foundation of cultivation.

Skills are the means of protecting the path.

Golden Core Masters have many means, thousands of spells, powerful Artifact Talismans, mysterious arrays, pills for explosive growth, and even escape techniques turning into rainbow light.

Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators lack all these.

They only have Martial Arts Divine Techniques derived from Martial Skills.

To other Martial Artists, Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators are invincible.

But compared to Golden Core Masters, or even Star Sea’s Golden Core Masters, they fall short.

At least in Star Sea, every Golden Core Master is a Sword Cultivator, and their Sword Control Skills are entirely different from Martial Arts Sword Cultivators.

Moreover, they’ve learned magic and Body Refining Techniques from the Demon Race and Witch Race.

Therefore, Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators are inferior to Golden Core Masters.

This is why Zhao Fu, with his Spiritual Martial Realm cultivation, could challenge the Black Tortoise Realm.

The opponent’s means are too scant.

While Zhao Fu did not practice much in Martial Skills.

He learned only a few for self-defense.

He focused almost all of his energy on Sword Dao.

Because Martial Arts Sword Dao and Cultivation Sword Dao share many similarities.

Zhao Fu transformed his Celestial Essence Sword Dao into a Cultivation Sword Dao, using the sword as a medium to unleash powers that Celestial Essence Martial Artists couldn’t manifest.

[You attracted many strong individuals, with the three Black Tortoise Realm Cultivators of the Imperial Capital visiting you.]

[Upon learning your identities, everyone was astonished.]

[No one expected that from a small border city, and in a family mostly consisting of Mortal Martial and low-tier Spiritual Martial, two Black Tortoise Realm powerhouses could emerge.]

[You did not say much, simply explaining your origins.]

[You obtained the secret key treasured by the Imperial Family, left by a friend of the deceased ancestor, unlocking a hidden trove in the Celestial Cloud Secret Realm.]

[You left the Lion Heart Empire, and with the ancestor’s strong protest, the renown of a family with two Black Tortoise was not spread.]

[You traversed countless mountains and waters, finally arriving at the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect.]

[Having reached the Black Tortoise Realm, you didn’t need to approach the Water Mirror Sword Sect as before.]

[By revealing your aura, you were received by the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect.]

[You were qualified to be an esteemed guest of the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect.]

Zhao Fu carried a longsword on his back.

The longsword showed no signs of divinity, appearing to be an ordinary treasure sword.

Merely matching the status of a Black Tortoise Realm Cultivator.

Zhao Fu sat down, gently sipping from a cup of Spirit Tea.

A middle-aged man with a sword arrived.

Their eyes met.

In an instant, the longswords of the Sword Sect disciples who came to serve trembled under their surprised gazes.

"Friend, impressive skills."

"Likewise."

[You straightforwardly explained your origins.]

[And straightforwardly sold out the old Salted Fish of your family.]

[Hearing the name Zhao Fan, the other party was immensely astonished.]

[Shortly after, you met the ancestor of the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect, an old woman.]

"Is your family’s ancestor really Zhao Fan?"

"The Zhao Fan of Tree Vein of the Dao Inference Sect."

Zhao Fu took out a token.

"Besides Little Li, only he knows of this item..."

"Unexpected, truly unexpected!"

"The past is like smoke; the vast Dao Inference Sect is left with only a few old fellows like us."

"Leng Cang, when I ascend, I will definitely kill you!"

The old woman’s silver hair danced.

She seemed to be recalling something.

Clearly, this old woman was in a completely different state compared to the family’s old Salted Fish.

Zhao Fu observed the aura emanating from the old woman in front of him.

His eyes narrowed slightly.

It was a rare sense of life-and-death crisis he had felt since entering the Black Tortoise Realm.

With Star Sea’s Sword Dao in his possession, coupled with his formidable talent and thousands of years of experience,

even though the Sword Techniques Zhao Fu wielded were not top-tier,

he was confident in defeating even a Black Tortoise Peak Cultivator.

Zhao Fu observed the Essence, Qi, and Spirit of the old woman, ultimately refraining from mentioning Leng Cang’s situation.

He could see that killing Leng Cang was the old woman’s obsession.

If she found out Leng Cang was already dead, she would lose the spirit, so revealing this information required careful preparation.

"Alright, the disciple of Old Zhao."

"I will teach you our Dao Inference Sect’s Sword Vein Ultimate Skill, the Celestial Sword Seven Techniques."

"Everyone learns the Celestial Sword Seven Techniques differently, and this method can only be learned after stepping into the Black Tortoise Realm."

"Because a Black Tortoise Realm Martial Artist is a Grandmaster, they have their understanding of Martial Dao."

"The reason Celestial Sword Seven Techniques is called the foremost sword technique of the Eastern and Western continents is that it is a framework, allowing a Martial Artist to realize their unique framework of Sword Dao."

"Only those with great talent and comprehension can learn it..."

[You received the inheritance of the Celestial Sword Seven Techniques.]

[You entered a state of enlightenment.]

[Your own Celestial Sword Seven Techniques are forming.]

[Within the sword light, your Martial Arts Primordial Spirit faintly reveals itself.]

The Martial Arts Primordial Spirit is the external manifestation of a Martial Artist’s will.

It is scarce in the Black Tortoise Realm.

But once the Martial Arts Primordial Spirit appears, it signifies a significant probability of Breaking the Void and ascending.

[At fifty-nine, you completed your own Celestial Sword Seven Techniques.]

[You then began to settle at the Celestial Cloud Sword Sect.]

[At sixty, you started preparing to set out for the Western Continent.]

Zhao Fu did not choose to go to the Great Moon Empire.

Currently, the Eastern Continent formed a situation where the Great Moon Empire and various other forces are united against each other.

It was similar to how the Dao Inference Sect once opposed numerous other forces.

In such a situation, going to the Great Moon Empire with Zhao Fu’s identity seemed inappropriate.

"Now, my Sword Dao has achieved Great Success."

"My power is almost sufficient; I just await for cultivation to be Perfected."

Zhao Fu’s Body Technique and Body Refining Technique were the top in the Eastern Continent.

The Body Technique included three top-tier techniques encompassing long-distance evasion, extreme speed, and shifting: "Golden Crow Sun Evasion," "Inch by Inch," and "Micro-step Overlapping Waves."

The Body Refining Technique was "Qi Blood Demon Scripture," developed by Zhao Fu combining local Cultivation Techniques and Witch Race Body Forging Techniques.

He also had various techniques from Leng Cang for attack methods.

The only thing lacking somewhat was the Inner Strength.
