Chapter 5: As a Swordsman, The Sword Embryo Is Very Important!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Back in his room, Lin Feng sat cross-legged and started cultivating again.
The preliminary forging of the sword embryo was also very particular.
Those who were ignorant or did not have the guidance of others could easily create a sword embryo.
The result of this was that one’s cultivation speed would be very fast during the subsequent process of cultivation.
But in comparison, one’s combat ability would be slightly weaker than that of a normal person. The amount of spiritual energy that can be stored would be below average and would be consumed very quickly.
In game terminology, this meant that both damage and defense capabilities were insufficient. Even if one’s energy recovered quickly, the upper limit of the energy bar would be low.
The sword embryo was equivalent to the foundation of a building. There was no need to elaborate on its importance.
Therefore, a good sword embryo was very necessary when entering a profession.
As a Great Swordmaster who had once dominated the world, he naturally had to build a solid foundation for his cultivation now.
Lin Feng chose the most difficult but also the most effective sword embryo forging technique from his previous life.
Lin Feng had collected this technique purely for the sake of making a collection back then.
Once a sword embryo was formed, it essentially could not be altered.
Therefore, no matter how good this technique was, it was useless for Lin Feng at that time.
On one hand, it was for collection, and on the other hand, he wanted to keep it for his descendants or disciples.
He had never thought that transmigration could happen a second time.
After he transmigrated, he had to start all over again. In this case, the most powerful forging technique that was sealed in his memories was finally useful.
Although it was extremely difficult to forge this sword embryo, Lin Feng, the full-level Great Swordsman was no slouch.
Even if it was the strongest cultivation technique, was there really no room for improvement?
The so-called strongest simply meant that there was currently nothing better than it in the world. However, it did not mean that it could not be surpassed.
Hence, during the cultivation process, Lin Feng was also studying it bit by bit.
“Interesting idea. I don’t know if the creator of this method is trying to keep it a secret or for something else but he has deliberately increased the difficulty for some portions. In reality, doing so does not do much to improve one’s cultivation and the quality of the sword embryo.”
Lin Feng quickly discovered the problem and resolved it. He was optimizing and improving this technique.
So what if this is the best? I can still make it better and stronger.
Spiritual energy flowed continuously through Lin Feng’s body and finally converged in his dantian.
In Lin Feng’s inner vision, the outline of a sword was faintly discernible. It wasn’t a sword embryo, but sword energy that barely made up a part of it.
However, even though he didn’t have a sword embryo, Lin Feng had successfully passed the apprentice stage and became a ranked professional.
Although Lin Feng had optimized and improved this powerful forging technique, it was still a very difficult technique to cultivate.
That was extremely inefficient. Lin Feng was struck with an idea and directly split up this technique.
He divided it into ten stages. The first stage was sword form, referring to the sword taking shape. It was just a sword energy, an outline, a virtual image without a physical form.
At this point, the height of this technique that Lin Feng was using, as well as his skill had to be noted.
Even though it had been split up, and he had only completed one-tenth of the process, it managed to pull Lin Feng into the profession with its outstanding quality.
Furthermore, he was not just an awkward apprentice.
The fundamental difference between professionals and apprentices was the difference in their life levels.
No matter how an apprentice cultivated or strengthened his body, he would only be limited to the scope of a human being.
Becoming a professional meant that one had opened the path of life evolution and was advancing towards a higher level.
The cores such as the sword embryo and more of a professional were the key to the evolution of life.
Staying up all night Lin Feng cultivated according to the forging technique, improving and optimizing it as he did so.
If other professionals from the previous world, whose levels were up in the hundreds, were to learn that someone actually dared to cultivate like this, they would definitely think that they were dreaming.
He was completely playing with his life. If he was not careful, the spiritual energy would certainly go berserk in his body. At that point, it would be highly possible for his entire body to explode like a bomb.
It was such a dangerous process, but Lin Feng didn’t sense any obstruction throughout the entire process. Everything went smoothly.
There was no other reason, he was just that confident.
This was his pride as a Level 999 Great Swordmaster.
If someone were to ask him how he felt, he would only state indifferently, “This is just the basics.”
After becoming a professional, Lin Feng would no longer need to sleep and could use cultivation to replace it.
Ding ding ding!
Ding ding ding!
“Hmm?”
Lin Feng left his cultivating state and looked at the phone beside him strangely. It was a slightly aged model.
Lin Feng had forcefully gotten it from Lin Dong. The one from his predecessor was too pink and too disgusting. He felt nauseous just holding it.
“Lin Xue?”
Looking at the name on the screen, Lin Feng faltered for a moment before realizing that it was his sister’s name.
Lin Feng picked up the call.
“What is it?”
“…”
