Sea Cultivation: Giant Ships and Heavy Artillery Knock on the Door to All Races

Chapter 126: The Unafraid Sword, Mutual Calculation

"What's going on? Why do they feel like they've slowed down?"

"Sparring? Such an important duel turned into a sparring match?"

"I couldn't see clearly before, but now I can see clearly."

"Is it due to lack of spiritual power?"

"No! Sword cultivators are good at controlling their spiritual energy consumption. Even though they have exchanged hundreds of moves, their actual spiritual energy consumption is not that great."

"Could this be... a sudden enlightenment in the way of the sword?"

"Dude, what is kendo enlightenment?"

"There are thousands of great paths in the world, and every step forward is a transformation. However, true transformation is difficult to achieve through gradual accumulation. Daily accumulation only lays the foundation for transformation. When the foundation is solid enough and the right opportunity arises, enlightenment may come."

"A swordsman's enlightenment is called sword enlightenment, and a swordsman's enlightenment is called sword enlightenment. It's the same principle. Once enlightenment arrives, it means the current stage has reached its peak and the next stage has begun. Consuming a complete enlightenment means completing this transformation in one go."

"What happens after the transformation is complete? What specific changes will occur?"

"After the transformation, the sword has its own intentions and its strength has been greatly improved. To put it simply and directly, at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining, one can unleash half of the power of Foundation Establishment at its maximum strength."

"Only half a move?"

"Half a move is already pretty good. Foundation Building and Qi Refining are one in heaven and one on earth. Half a move of Foundation Building will make the power invincible to Qi Refining."

"I understand. Thanks for the explanation, brother. But what does this Lin Liqiu mean?"

"He's a true gentleman. He could have taken the opportunity to defeat Lin Qianfan, but he chose to help Lin Qianfan."

"Ah? The Lin family actually has such a genius and hero. It seems that the Lin family will have to rule the Yulong Islands for thousands of years."

"Hush! You dare to say anything."

"What's the big deal? I only said good things, it's nothing serious."

The originally fierce confrontation between the two people in the field turned into Lin Liqiu feeding Lin Qianfan with different moves.

He fed Lin Qianfan everything he had learned throughout his life, including even the moves he had only seen once but had never used, one by one, so that they could become the nourishment for Lin Qianfan's enlightenment in the way of the sword, allowing Lin Qianfan to complete his enlightenment in the way of the sword as completely as possible.

“What is my path?”

"It means having a clear conscience! It means not being trapped by emotions! It means being free and unrestrained! It means being brave and diligent! It means endless life!"

"The sword is a sword without regrets! Just do everything with a clear conscience!"

After finding the path in his heart and fully absorbing the entire epiphany, Lin Qianfan's originally confused and scattered eyes instantly regained focus.

"Thank you!"

Lin Qianfan, who had completed his transformation, put away the Phantom Sword and clasped his fists forward.

From the outside, Lin Qianfan looks no different from before, but the more powerful people are, the more they can sense the danger he poses.

This is the "Haoyang" feeling that someone mentioned before. Even if Lin Qianfan does not make a move, he can invisibly burn the people around him. The stronger they are, the more oppressed they will be by Lin Qianfan.

Lin Liqiu shook his head upon hearing this:
"This is what I should do. I don't think any of the Lin family's disciples would have the heart to disrupt your hard-earned enlightenment in the way of the sword."

Once the epiphany begins, it means that Lin Qianfan has embarked on the path of sword intent. If it is interrupted, it will take more time to perfect it.

It may take months, years or even decades, so Lin Qianfan is indebted to this favor.

But Lin Qianfan did not comment on the other party's remarks. There were many corrupt officials in the Lin family, and not everyone could be as upright as Lin Liqiu. Others would not show mercy.

But then again, if any other shrewd person came up, there would be no way he could have the strength of Lin Liqiu.

"I lost!"

Lin Qianfan, who had completed his transformation, was definitely better than Lin Liqiu, who had just found the direction of his transformation, so Lin Liqiu took the initiative to admit defeat.

"No! If it weren't for Uncle Qiu's assistance, my nephew's enlightenment wouldn't have been so smooth this time. In fact, I was defeated when I entered the state of enlightenment."

Lin Qianfan has no shortage of money to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill. In fact, according to the current situation, the Foundation Establishment Pill is not necessary. It is just a backup.

Therefore, this bonus can be given to Uncle Qiu to help him make another attempt to establish his foundation before he turns sixty.

"How about a draw then?"

"Okay! It's a draw! We split the prize money."

If it is a draw, the gamblers above will not lose money. Although they did not win any money, they have gained some insights and can go out and brag about it.

Having completed the transformation from sword energy to sword intent, the 25-year-old Lin Qianfan, whose fundamentals are very perfect, deserves the title of genius, so there is no need to continue this challenge.

After taking the bonus, Lin Qianfan did not go to investigate the case right away, but found a cave to practice in seclusion. He needed to continue to improve some details that he had not taken into account during his enlightenment, so as to truly master the power of half a move of foundation building.

Yanglong Bay.

"What? Did that guy really kill us?"

Yanglongwan also knew that Lin Qianfan had set up the bonus challenge before. Everyone was unclear about his real purpose and thought that he was doing it to raise money to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Some people are optimistic.

After all, Lin Qianfan’s record in the family training ground is real. Lin Qianfan once defeated all the ninth-level Qi Refining cultivators in Yanglong Bay, including several former Foundation Establishment Seeds.

Even though the Xiancheng Lin family had more experts, their top-tier skills were definitely similar, so it was normal for Lin Qianfan to win. However, some people were not optimistic about him.

Some people with low strength and no concrete concept of power do not believe that there is someone around them who can achieve invincibility through Qi Refining. Some people even believe deep down that the Lin family of Xiancheng is more powerful.

So they thought that Lin Qianfan would definitely fail, and in the end he would have to come back and borrow money to build his foundation.

And Lin Ligui's third aunt is obviously one of them.

"Oh no! He distributed more than 2,000 spirit stones in one go. If we add to that his own savings, I'm afraid it will be almost enough."

Third aunt was calculating a lot, but she didn't understand that the higher the success rate of foundation building, the more capable people are. The more capable people are, the stronger their hematopoietic ability is, and the less dependent they are on the outside world. Lin Qianfan really looked down on her little tricks.

"What should I do?"

The third aunt's son has recently been targeted by Lin Qiansuo for using the family's name to seek personal gain. Originally, he could have used the connections of Lin Ligui's family to pay a fine and the matter would have been resolved.

But now Lin Ligui is pretending to be crazy, Lin Limao is too high-ranking to be seen, and he and Lin Qianfan have no connection and can't be seen, which makes this scheming woman feel helpless.

"Got it! Qian Bao that kid must also need spirit stones. I have to go find him first to confirm it, so as not to miss it later."

In Third Aunt's original plan, Lin Qianfan was the best investment target, and Lin Qianbao was the backup option, but now she has to put the backup option on the agenda.

Yanglongwan Presbyterian Church.

"The latest news is that this group of old jackals has succeeded again in Xiyue Bay. They killed a newly promoted Jindan and robbed Xiyue Bay of the wealth accumulated over a thousand years."

"Aren't there two Jindan cultivators in Xiyue Bay? How could they be forced into a battle by a group of old men while guarding a third-level formation?"

"For some reason, Master Xiyue was not in Xiyue Bay at the time. Only a newly promoted Jindan cultivator stayed behind. How could one person withstand the continuous bombardment of a group of people?"

"These old guys are quite well-informed."

"I'm afraid the matter is not that simple. It is possible that someone is tipping them off."

"That's right, the pot is only this big. If there are fewer people eating, the average amount per person will be higher. These people are really sinister."

All camps are relative. The Western Region and the Northwestern Region are only geographically opposed. As long as the interests are consistent in some aspects, the enemy and us are also relative, and there is nothing that cannot be cooperated.

"If that's the case, then aren't our neighbors to the northwest also in danger?"

"It's hard to say. A Jindan Zhenren has his own considerations. We can't speculate too much."

"I hope that after this incident is over, some Dan-forming resources will flow out."

"Yes! The old ones will leave, and the new ones will take over. Then there will definitely be Dan-forming spirits flowing out on the market."

"Third Master, how are your preparations going?"

"There are some, but I still don't know where the most important spiritual object is."

For the Jindan forces, superior Jindan spiritual objects are also extremely precious, just like the foundation-building forces crave foundation-building pills.

However, unlike the foundation-building forces that cannot be independent and are strictly controlled by others, the golden elixir forces are often independent, so many golden elixir forces can produce certain golden elixir spiritual objects on their own.

However, the difficulty of forming a golden elixir is extremely high, and the challenges faced are more than those of building a foundation. Moreover, the rarity of the golden elixir and the difficulty of obtaining it are much higher than those of building a foundation.

Therefore, many golden elixir seeds cannot be used to form real golden elixirs, and one can only deal with each level by collecting a complete set of golden elixir spiritual objects.

Of course, the Lin family also supports the golden elixir seeds, but the support is obviously not as strong and stable as the support for the foundation-building seeds. What kind of elixir-forming spiritual objects the family can come up with depends on the situation at the time.

The Third Master, who has now reached the ninth level of foundation building, is facing this problem. The spiritual objects that can be bought on the market for forming elixirs are of average effect, and there is no news about the most critical and superior spiritual objects that can significantly increase the success rate.

"Wait, there's no rush."

"Well, it will take me a few years to reach the peak of the ninth level of foundation building. I should be able to buy it by then."

After this turmoil, it can be predicted that some Jindan forces will decline or even be completely destroyed.

Destruction and rebirth complement each other. At that time, various opportunities will appear on the market. With the current strength of the Lin family, it is not too difficult to exchange or purchase superior Jindan spiritual objects.

at the same time,

Yundu Island secretly welcomed three mysterious guests.

"Thank you all for your support. I won't say much, but I will always remember this kindness."

"I'm just being loyal to the person who entrusted me with this. Please arrange a few caves for us."

"More Meiji!"

"Everyone has it."

Of course, the Zhang family couldn't hire these people on their own. Even if they had the money, they wouldn't have to take the risk of going to the Northwest Region.

These people were all independent Jindan cultivators invited from other places by Guanlan Xiancheng. In addition, they were greedy people, so they came here to ambush with one conspiracy, targeting the people from the Northwest Region.

"We have a plan. Now we can be safe."

The matter of the ancestor's invasion of the Northwest Region was kept absolutely secret. Only the young Jindan Zhang Chaoyang knew about it in the Zhang family. But with the fall of Xiyue Bay, it meant that the news was no longer kept secret. This loose and false alliance even devoured its own people.

Zhang Chaoyang had no choice but to ask for help from Guanlan Fairy City and promised many unequal treaties.
