Chapter 152 - 121: Completing the Cultivation Technique, Breaking Through Three Fulfillments
Almost forgot, this fellow was also cultivating the Yuqing Daoji!
Chi Yu Zi and Xiao Yunyi fell silent for a moment; dazzled by the brilliance of the True Sword Dao, they had temporarily forgotten Gu Wen’s original identity.
The reason they had initially looked at Gu Wen differently was not due to the by-the-book swordsmanship he displayed a month ago, nor because he was a guardian under the Taoist Heavenly Girl, but because he possessed the Yuqing Daoji.
Such was the disparity among prodigies, those who rejected Gu Wen only saw the swordsmanship and failed to recognize the uniqueness of the Yuqing Daoji.
Gu Wen floated in mid-air like someone playing with a new toy, his hand brushing against the white rock that could shift between reality and illusion. He could either choose to pass through it or touch it.
Burying his head into it allowed him to see the fine pores between the rocks; his perception of the external world still intact.
However, attempting to pass through met with resistance; the body of Heavenly Spring Mountain exuded a natural Sword Qi, blocking the spirit whether it was solid or ethereal. To break through, one would have to face the entire Heavenly Spring Mountain, and even Yu Hua wasn’t sure about it.
Then Gu Wen tried flying; initially, it was like swimming in the air, but under Yu Hua’s guidance, he gradually learned the trick and began flying at a speed of fifty meters per second.
This was just the beginning, according to Yu Hua, the Primordial Spirit being between solid and ethereal made Flying Escape the fastest. Often, great powers were hard to kill in duels because their Divine Souls fled, and it was nearly impossible for those of the same level to catch up.
But the same issue of the Primordial Spirit emerging also had another problem, injuries to the Primordial Spirit were hard to heal. What if it were dragged to mutual destruction?
