CHAPTER EIGHT: Golden Blood Ginseng
The incantation of the nine calamity nine heavens divine skill was already second nature to Chu Yang; he could recite it backward without error. However, he couldn't practice it right now!
This was due to one significant feature of the nine calamity nine heavens divine skill. That is, knowing the incantation alone was useless; one must obtain the corresponding sword body. This sword body is imbued with a peculiar power, and only after absorbing that power can one cultivate the nine calamity nine heavens divine skill according to the incantation, resulting in rapid progress!
Moreover, the power attached to each segment of the sword body is different!
If one were to recklessly practice without acquiring the nine calamity sword body, they would likely perish in a fiery blaze within moments!
Additionally, Chu Yang's current physical condition did not meet the requirements for cultivating the nine heavens divine skill. Only after becoming a martial sovereign, with all meridians unblocked, gradually increasing vitality, moving beyond the small circulatory system into the greater circulatory cycle, could one cultivate the nine calamity nine heavens!
As the eastern sky brightened, the sun suddenly leaped over the horizon. Chu Yang took a deep breath, concluded his practice, and stood quietly for a moment, feeling warm all over, an indescribable comfort coursing through him…
He stood there, squinting toward Gathering Cloud Peak, where the first segment of the nine calamity sword lay quietly buried beneath the ground.
He must obtain it as soon as possible!
A sharp glint flashed in Chu Yang's eyes. After watching for a while, he finally withdrew his gaze.
He cautiously surveyed his surroundings to confirm there was no one else around, then his figure moved, slowly sliding down the steep rock face. His eyes carefully scanned the area above, below, left, and right, because if Stone Thousand Mountain was correct, then the golden blood ginseng was growing right on this rock face!
Golden blood ginseng was not considered a top-tier spiritual medicine. However, even in the upper three heavens, it was rare and valuable. All major families needed this spiritual medicine to lay a foundation for their descendants!
Many descendants of renowned families were even fed golden blood ginseng from birth! Taking advantage of the mother’s innate energy before it dissipated and with peak experts assisting the baby in harnessing the medicinal power, they could create a martial genius that would shake the world!
If this genius grew up to work hard, their future achievements would be unimaginable! A significant portion of their success could be attributed to this golden blood ginseng from their childhood!
The reason why the descendants of noble families cultivate so quickly is largely due to the accumulation of spiritual medicines!
In this world, there is no shortage of geniuses! Indeed, geniuses have far more opportunities for success than ordinary people! But one undeniable point is that the number of geniuses who die young or fade into obscurity is infinitely greater than those who succeed!
I am not a genius, but I will transform myself into a genius greater than any genius! I want geniuses to be nothing in front of me!
Chu Yang slowly slid down, his entire body pressed against the smooth cliff face, moving effortlessly like a large gecko, steadily navigating the sheer cliff.
This was a technique he had obtained from killing a martial sovereign in his previous life, called the "void sky divine travel technique." It felt useful, so he practiced it.
Now, even though this body had never cultivated before, he could still manage to use it…
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from below, accompanied by a whiff of a foul wind.
Chu Yang frowned, his gaze sharp. He exerted force with his right hand against the cliff, and his entire body silently shifted horizontally seven feet along the rock face! With a swish, a colorful venomous snake darted past him!
