My Celestial Ascension-Chapter 21 One Sword One Strike
"Little Yuan! I will take my leave now, I will be cultivating in my room! If you need me, just give me a call..." Saying those words she left the dining room leaving Yuan, Grace, Anna, and Emma behind. When she got the cultivation technique in her hand from Yuan, she was very eager to learn the technique and start her cultivation journey toward longevity. She was only holding herself back from leaving because Yuan had to say something important to all of them, now that he had already informed the upcoming dangers and advised them to not leave the house until everyone was strong enough to defend themselves properly in any given situation; if not she would have left long ago, It's like a child has gotten her first toy and can't wait to play with it.
Seeing her childish behavior Yuan, Anna, Grace, and Emma let out a small chuckle.
"Just as before... She has never changed, she was like this before; always curious about new things..." Anna said while showing a relaxing smile on her face as she saw Lily leave in a hurry to start her cultivation. Seeing Lily's childish behavior, Anna remembered how she would always question her about new things to the point that she get annoyed by them, but now remembering it she felt a warm sensation in her heart and a gentle smile bloom on her face.
"It still feels like only a month has passed, time sure flies fast...Now look how much they have grown up, They have even popped their cherries..." Grace commented while nodding her head at Anna, which made Yuan and Emma blush.
Seeing Emma and Yuan's faces getting red because of embarrassment, Anna and Grace smiled ear to ear as they nodded at each other which Yuan nor Emma noticed. Emma has dedicated her whole life to this family from the moment Anna/Grace picks her up from the slum she has been working as a maid despite Anna/Grace telling her not to work, Anna and Grace both want Emma to enjoy her life as hers doing what she likes. Now that they both know that Emma has fallen for their son, they will do anything within their power to bring the two closer to each other.
"Now then, I will be taking my leave— I'm going to do some training in the backyard, If you guys need me simply give me a call." After those words, Yuan got up from the chair and walk towards the way to the backyard. The thing is that he doesn't want to get teased by his two seductive milf mothers with voluptuous bodies, he was hardly holding himself back from pouncing at them.
_
It only took him a few seconds to arrive at the backyard of the house, the backyard was not very big but had enough space to train 4 to 5 people at once. He has seen the backyard countless times but sadly it wasn't his experience, it was all from the previous Yuan; even though he has memories of the old Yuan, he isn't the same, it also applies to the way he sees his family members.
<A Mission has been assigned to the Host! >
<Mission: Learn a sword technique>
<Difficulty: None>
<Reward: 20 SP>
<Time limit: None>
<Mission Failure: 30 SP will be deducted>
<Will the Host take the mission? >
<Yes/No>
'What the hell! This is truly unreasonable!' Yuan muttered looking at the penalty for the mission failure, but then he accepts the mission by pressing the "Yes".
Yuan walked to the middle of the yard feeling the soft grass beneath his feet, he looked around the Yard a bit before sitting on top of the grass, and he felt as if he was sitting on a cushion.
' Now that I am here...If I remember clearly, I have two techniques present in my system storage, and both of them are sword techniques, good thing that I have a sword with me.' He pondered a bit, then he took out a technique from the system storage, and he then looked at the scroll before slowly opening the technique— After opening the technique he saw the name of the technique, "One Sword One Strike" a none ranking technique.
[Simple yet extremely fatal, a wise choice, Host! As the name suggests, There is only one move in this technique but this is what makes this technique so unique, those who learn this technique can execute it in any way if the user had a sword in hand.] Nora explained to Yuan the uniqueness of this sword technique.
He nodded.
He then read through the One Sword One strike technique, Only a few minutes passed before he closes the technique and throw it into his system storage with a calm expression on his face.
Yuan then stood up and a blue sword appears in his hand from thin air, he then looks around the yard and found a huge old tree trunk that they couldn't remove from the yard in the past, it was all dried up now. He then walks toward the old tree trunk calmly, His gaze deeply focused on the old tree trunk.
After arriving close to the old tree trunk, he pointed his sword at the tree trunk, he moves his hand accordingly as mentioned in the technique.
Thud! The sword in his grasp had hit the tree trunk and made a deep cut in the wood.
He then looked at the cut he made on the old tree trunk, he was disappointed by the result. He then looked at the sword in his grasp, he know that the cut was made due to his physical strength as a cultivator and nothing else. "I swing the sword according to the technique, but why do I feel like something is missing?"
[Host! Are you an idiot?... Although it was quite stiff, I can assure you that that was indeed a sword technique even though it was amateur!.. You only need to apply Qi when executing the sword technique perfectly.] Nora said after witnessing the lack of Qi in the sword technique unleashed by Yuan, even though he had understood and executed a sword technique only after reading for a few minutes, he could be described as a prodigy for this achievement.
"Qi?.... Yes, why don't I think of this sooner?.." Nora's words caused Yuan to get a sudden enlightenment, and he grasped the sword tightly and took a deep breath. "This time... I will succeed for sure!"
He firms his grip on the handle of the sword in his grasp, the moment he firms his grip over the sword everything about him changes. His aura become sharp as a sword that could slice everything in its path, His gaze showed a bit of dominance and also a bit of arrogance but his expression was anything but calm.
The changes were as if he had become a sword master that had lived a very long life mastering countless sword techniques and winning many battles! Even his aura has changed entirely! Who would believe he was the same useless mana-less Yuan a few days ago?
Yuan then swings the sword in his hand with the same movement as before but with a bit more precision and speed as he applies Qi to it. The sword in his hand suddenly glowed a little blue—
"One Sword One Strike"
Slash! Yuan's movement becomes very fast as the sword glowed in blue as if the time of the word has become slow for him, the sword landed on the tree trunk and sliced the trunk in half with a completely clean cut, and the pieces of soil scatter everywhere in the yard.

[Congratulations! For learning the technique within a few minutes, You are indeed a genius, Host!] Nora congratulated Yuan on his achievement, the truth be told, she was astounded by the comprehensive talent Yuan possess; if a sect from the cultivation world find out about Yuan's talent, they will do anything within their power to get him into their faction.
The sharp aura around Yuan vanished from him as he heard Nora congratulate him for his achievement. "Ohh, thank you, Nora! Your words flattered me..."
pαndα`noν?1--сoМ "Looks like I have a talent for swords, haha!" He said as he laughed awkwardly.
[You sure do, Host! You will be a genius swords master in the future, I am sure of it!] Nora said nodding her head.
Hearing Nora's flattering, Yuan slightly blushed and stayed silent. He then stared at the tree trunk that he split into two a moment ago, he was astounded seeing the clean cut he made; even most of the renowned knights won't be able to cut this clean and not to mention the size of the trunk, it's huge.
