Beast Taming: Sharing Pets' Abilities-Chapter 446 - 445: The Profound Corpse Scripture

Therefore, although these sword techniques are numerous and quite profound and mysterious, ordinary cultivators may find themselves at a loss, unable to comprehend them even after three to five years of effort, but they are absolutely not a problem for Gu Yuan.

No matter how advanced the sword technique, there is always a trace to follow in Gu Yuan’s eyes.

It’s like a ball of tangled yarn; he always finds a way to locate the end of the thread, then slowly untangles it strand by strand, ultimately sorting it out. In the process of sorting, he naturally grasps the essence of it.

Gu Yuan plans to first comprehend the sword techniques here, and then quietly wait for news from Su Qiuyue.

The two of them had already discussed it; as soon as Su Qiuyue received the news that Zheng Changlong was coming from the East Sea Cultivation Realm to the Southern Border to propose at Taixu Temple, she would notify Gu Yuan.

At that time, the two would join forces to either capture him alive or kill him.

Since there was still time, Gu Yuan decided to focus on comprehending the sword techniques.

Among the fourteen newly acquired sword techniques, Gu Yuan didn’t plan to cultivate them all, but he needed to thoroughly understand the essences and integrate them into his own swordsmanship to build a sufficient foundation for himself.

...

After two months, Gu Yuan had comprehended the essence of several sword techniques, and had also gained quite a bit from the rest.

All he needed was to continue comprehending them step by step, and he could turn them into his own foundation, enriching himself.

Then, Gu Yuan took out the copy of the "Corpse Scripture" to have a look.

After reading it, Gu Yuan could only sigh; indeed, this "Corpse Scripture" was truly worthy of being the most top-notch cultivation Daoist scripture in the world.

Although it was a Demon Dao classic, it was also quite profound; it was definitely not much inferior to his "Taiyuan Biluo Dao Chapter".

The "Corpse Scripture" was mainly divided into three volumes, one of which recorded various miscellaneous profound and exquisite divine techniques; some were practical, some were niche, some were ruthless, and some were bizarre.

It is worth mentioning that the secret technique of Unity of Human and Corpse cultivated by the old ghost Youhai was among them, indeed quite bizarre and disgusting.

But if by chance it succeeded, although there would be some future troubles, it could indeed achieve a form of alternative immortality.

Another volume recorded the Corpse Cultivation Skill, which taught people how to specifically refine various zombies, blood corpses, evil corpses, and corpse kings, ultimately refining them into lifebound evil corpses.

The last volume was about the method for Demon Cultivators to cultivate themselves, with achievements leading up to the verification of the Primordial Spirit, and even the method to become a Corpse Immortal.

After reading it, even with Gu Yuan’s extensive knowledge, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of enlightenment.

Furthermore, some of the Demon Dao secret techniques and corpse cultivation methods also gave Gu Yuan quite some gains.

For example, one escape technique called Blood Shadow Divine Escape was a kind of escape divine technique that consumed not only True Qi but also essence blood.

The damage to the body was very great; using it once would cost an ordinary cultivator most of their life.

However, its effect was very formidable. If Gu Yuan mastered this method, once he used it, it would be slightly stronger than the Eternal Spirit Escape he had cultivated.

Of course, it couldn’t compare to Gu Yuan’s Eternal Divine Escape.

After all, the Eternal Divine Escape already involved a trace of the power of space rules.

Even so, for ordinary Golden Core Great Cultivators and Yin God Giants, this was already extremely rare, a life-saving divine technique in critical moments.

It’s not that Gu Yuan intends to cultivate Demonic Divine Techniques; it’s mainly that some of the cultivation essences are also worth learning from, which would greatly benefit Gu Yuan himself.

Refinement and purity are a path of cultivation, but drawing from various strengths is also a path that is by no means inferior.

Gu Yuan chose the latter.

...

Buzz—Buzz—!!!

In the stone chamber, Gu Yuan sat cross-legged.

A palm-sized flying sword, completely snow-bright and silver-white, extremely sharp, flew around Gu Yuan, like a small snake or a swimming fish, agile and swift, yet containing a chilling killing intent.

This flying sword was naturally Gu Yuan’s lifebound flying sword, the Primordial Jade Scenery Sword.

After comprehending the sword techniques taught by Zhong Tian, Gu Yuan gradually integrated their essence into his own sword techniques.

Nowadays, his swordsmanship had clearly advanced again.

Reaching the top-grade divine technique level, the sword techniques had become more exquisite, with a tendency to evolve into the prototype of great divine techniques.

Not to mention anything else, with Gu Yuan’s current swordsmanship, an ordinary Golden Core Great Cultivator would die if a single one came, or if two came, both would die.

Unless it was a Golden Core Great Cultivator at the upper-grade pill formation, perhaps only then might they resist him a little.

Gu Yuan’s swordsmanship combined with his Sword Dao talent, its power was even doubled, almost not inferior to his most powerful prototype of great divine techniques, the Chaos Divine Thunder.

Once Gu Yuan’s swordsmanship evolved into the prototype of great divine techniques, because it was cultivated by himself bit by bit, its power might be even stronger than that of the Chaos Divine Thunder.

The Primordial Jade Scenery Sword flew into Gu Yuan’s hand, which he began to play with.

This flying sword had already been completely refined by Gu Yuan, transforming sometimes into a bright sword silk, weaving beautiful patterns in the void, and sometimes into a pigeon egg-sized silver-bright sword pill, exuding a dazzling and sharp aura.

There are indeed many types of flying swords.

For example, normal flying swords, Wu Hook, sword pills, handleless flying swords, and even some resembling long spikes.

However, for Gu Yuan, since the Primordial Jade Scenery Sword had been completely refined by him, capable of changing its form at will, there was no need to be constrained by its appearance.

"Hmm?"

At this moment, Gu Yuan seemed to sense something and took out a Communication Jade Talisman from his storage pouch.

At this time, the jade talisman was gleaming with light, clearly indicating a message had arrived.

"Oh, Su Qiuyue has sent a message?"

Upon seeing this, Gu Yuan’s heart stirred, then he probed with his Divine Thought to investigate the message within.

Sure enough, a message from Su Qiuyue came, saying she had just received news that Zheng Changlong had already set out from the East Sea Cultivation Realm toward the Southern Border.

Gu Yuan did not delay any longer; he stood up, accompanied by the sound of his lifebound flying sword, the Primordial Jade Scenery Sword, which let out a buzzing sound before bursting into bright Sword Light, merging with Gu Yuan and transforming into a Sword Light that pierced through the stone wall and swiftly departed.

With the situation urgent, Gu Yuan chose to use Sword Escape to meet up with Su Qiuyue.

His Sword Escape, due to his outstanding swordsmanship, was first-rate in speed, not at all inferior to those proper top-grade escape technique divine techniques.

Of course, compared to Gu Yuan’s Eternal Divine Escape, it was still quite lacking.

But the Eternal Divine Escape was a prototype of great divine techniques, and using it had a great cost. Although Gu Yuan could fully afford it, it was really unnecessary.

Therefore, Gu Yuan opted to use Sword Escape, which was already sufficient.

Even though the East Sea Cultivation Realm and the Southern Border Cultivation Realm were adjacent, the area where Zheng Changlong was located was several million miles from Qinzhou.

Over such a long distance, even a Golden Core Great Cultivator would need a long time to hurry, so there was no need to be too anxious about this matter.

About six hours later, Gu Yuan had already flown out of the scope of Qinzhou and arrived in Liuzhou to meet up with Su Qiuyue.
