Chapter 274: Defying Nature’s Insight, Dao Canon Level Sword Intent

Even Chen Ansheng himself did not expect his insight to suddenly rise so dramatically.

He didn’t even need to think; he could deduce a more perfect law by himself!

“Wonderful, wonderful. Chen, my dear brother, you truly are a rare talent. Your insight is on par with mine!” Li Tai’a humbly remarked.

“A bit of good luck in comprehension, Brother Li overpraises me,” Chen Ansheng replied with a chuckle, feeling overjoyed inside.

At that moment, a graceful figure soared from the mountaintop in the distance.

“Indeed, it’s the Storm Spirit Abyss; it helped you break through so quickly.”

The visitor was none other than Gu Miaoyan.

As she gazed at Chen Ansheng, he also looked at her.

“It seems General Gu has suffered quite a bit; her realm has actually fallen to the mid-Celestial Immortal stage,” Chen Ansheng almost blurted out.

This remark stunned both Gu Miaoyan and Li Tai’a.

Gu Miaoyan’s cultivation was much higher than Chen Ansheng’s; he was able to discern her realm at a glance!

“Preserving my life is already lucky enough; what can I say about my realm?” Gu Miaoyan replied, regaining her composure, a hint of disappointment in her tone.

“What does General Gu plan to do next? Should we return to Immortal King Han?” Chen Ansheng inquired.

“Heh.” Gu Miaoyan forced a bitter smile and said, “My strength has greatly diminished, and my old injuries are hard to heal. Even if I wanted to return, I fear Immortal King Han wouldn’t be willing to keep me.”

Chen Ansheng could easily sense the helplessness in her words.

Gu Miaoyan was now at the mid-Celestial Immortal stage, which shouldn’t be considered weak, but given her injuries, it would be quite challenging for her to break through again, almost equivalent to being forever stuck at the mid-Celestial Immortal stage with no room for progress.

Even if she returned, Immortal King Han might not drive her away out of pride, but he likely wouldn’t value her highly again, let alone provide generous resources for cultivation.

This was reality.

“You don’t have to go anywhere; stay by my side from now on!” Li Tai’a chimed in.

“You? Forget it,” Gu Miaoyan scoffed.

“So you’re saying that after I risked my life to save you, you, miss, have no gratitude at all?” Li Tai’a laughed.

“One thing at a time; I will remember your life-saving grace,” Gu Miaoyan said, a hint of a smile appearing at the corners of her mouth.

“Who the hell cares whether you remember it or not? I don’t fall for that; you’d better come up with something practical,” Li Tai’a feigned anger.

Gu Miaoyan glared at him disdainfully and said, “No way! I’m not the kind of person!”

Chen Ansheng rolled his eyes, silently thinking: Stop pretending; you are exactly that kind of person.

Chen Ansheng only thought this in his heart, but Li Tai’a bluntly voiced it.

Gu Miaoyan’s face immediately turned crimson, and she chased after Li Tai’a, ready to beat him up. In no time, their figures had disappeared into the distant mountains.

“Hehe.”

Chen Ansheng smiled but suddenly felt a bit down.

“More than ten years have passed; I wonder if Zhong Li is still alive.”

At that moment, Chen Ansheng felt a pang in his heart.

“I need to quickly find my master and come up with a solution as soon as possible.”

Although the spiritual energy in this realm was thick, he had already broken through. Even if he cultivated for another ten or twenty years, it would be difficult to improve further.

“By the way, let’s see if the ‘Great Dao Condensing Origin Magic Technique’ can be quickly comprehended.”

If he managed to practice this Condensing Origin Technique, advancing his realm would be much easier than cultivation.

With that in mind, Chen Ansheng cast aside his distractions, sat down, and began comprehending.

“This is what Master Zhu Feng referred to as extremely difficult? It’s too simple.”

In just a few breaths, Chen Ansheng grasped the first layer of the magic technique.

An hour later, the magic technique was successfully completed, and a bizarre Great Dao attribute law was infused into Chen Ansheng’s immortal soul!

“Oh my gosh…”

Chen Ansheng opened his eyes in amazement.

He could hardly imagine how strong his current insight was.

According to Zhu Feng, with Chen Ansheng’s original spiritual strength, it would have taken at least three thousand years to comprehend, yet he had perfected it in just one hour!

How many times more was the difference in insight?

It was simply defying the heavens!

“Perhaps my insight has surpassed that of the Peak Immortal King!”

Chen Ansheng’s face flushed with excitement.

Such incredible insight made him feel as if he were dreaming, compelling him to pinch his thigh hard.

“That hurts; it’s real!”

The peak of my life is finally coming!

Hahaha!

At this moment, Chen Ansheng longed to compose a poem, but due to his limited culture, he ultimately restrained himself.

“Back then, I obtained a sword technique from the old bastard Xue Fa; it shouldn’t be an ordinary one. Let’s give it a try.”

With this thought, Chen Ansheng took out a jade slip from his storage bag.

He infused his immortal essence into it.

In the vastness of the world, a sword cultivator with a bamboo hat stood against the dim sky.

“The Azure Sky Sword, rooted in wind, guided by thunder, with the sword as intent. It can tear the heavens and the earth, and even cut through the azure sky… Young one, watch closely!”

After this thunderous and icy declaration faded away, the hat-wearing man began to wield his sword.

With each move and form, he aligned with the laws of the sword, blending them together, incredibly exquisite and unfathomable!

“Good!”

After observing for a while, Chen Ansheng couldn’t help but exclaim.

However, once the performance was complete, Chen Ansheng frowned.

“Although this sword technique is remarkably exquisite and unfathomably powerful when mastered, the laws it communicates must originate from ancient times, from which I have no means to acquire!”

Chen Ansheng immediately discerned the flaw in the sword technique without much thought.

In the past, he would have foolishly tried to comprehend it, potentially suffering backlash—resulting in light damages to his immortal soul or, at worst, becoming a fool.

After pondering for a while.

A gleam suddenly flashed in Chen Ansheng’s eyes.

“The essence of this sword technique lies in the sword art itself; why must it align with those ancient laws that have already dissipated? I will re-derive a sword technique from the same origin, and its power will surely be extraordinary!”

With this bold idea in mind, Chen Ansheng began to implement it.

In his sea of consciousness, his Idea Body held a blazing red sword, repeatedly exploring and deducing his own sword path based on the ancient sword technique.

Days turned into weeks.

Before long, three months had passed.

On this day, a shocking sound of sword resonance suddenly echoed from within the Storm Spirit Abyss.

Li Tai’a and Gu Miaoyan, who were sunbathing on the beach outside the mountain, were startled by the terrifying sword intent.

“What is this…?”

Sensing that powerful and arcane sword intent, Li Tai’a couldn’t help but change his expression.

“Could it be Dao Canon level sword intent? Impossible!”

Buzz, buzz, buzz…

Just after saying this, Li Tai’a felt the three Idea Sword Bodies in his dantian resonate with the soaring sword intent!

“Whoa! It really is Dao Canon level sword intent; could it be that kid, Chen Ansheng? Too scary! This kid’s talent far surpasses mine; he might be a seed of a Sword Deity!”

It was simply shocking.

A mere Celestial Immortal could comprehend sword intent deeper than that of an Immortal King, truly frightening!

Indeed, just from the quality of sword intent, that soaring sword intent was already incomparable to Li Tai’a’s sword intent.

“Brother Chen will undoubtedly be a major asset in the future! I need to hold on tight to him!”

Li Tai’a gazed absentmindedly at that Dao Canon sword intent, murmuring in excitement.
