Chapter 509 Selfless Formless Sword
“Imperial Lord, please take a look.” The red-robed Supremacy flipped his hand and produced a book. He handed it to Meng Chuan respectfully.
Meng Chuan flipped open the book.
The book described the 19 Imperial Lord-level techniques in detail. Meng Chuan glanced at them briefly before focusing on the painting catalogue manual’s description.
The Selfless Formless Sword’s creator, Huang Yong, was an Essence Soul Third Tribulation Eminence. He was a mortal master artist who eventually became a cultivator. He used his sword as a brush and created a perfected Imperial Lord-level technique-Selfless Formless Sword.
This sword art was famous for its many variations. It had a total of 33,000 moves. Once it was used, he could be seen everywhere within 15,000 kilometers. It was as though he was in every spot within 15,000 kilometers simultaneously. Simultaneously, he could use the 33,000 sword moves to create a painting. The technique’s might was unimaginable. However, it was extremely difficult to learn it because there were many sword moves-each of them was extremely profound.
Though this was the case, one could ignore all the manual’s sword moves and directly study the five paintings in the manual. If one could comprehend the five paintings, they could also cultivate the sword art to perfection, allowing them to reach the perfected Heaven Earth realm.
Meng Chuan glanced at the sword art’s moves. Meng Chuan was looking forward to seeing what a perfected sword technique had to offer. “That sword art technique is actually a painting?” Meng Chuan pointed at the old book.
The red-robed Supremacy smiled and said, “Imperial Lord, to be honest, instead of calling this Selfless Formless Sword a sword art, it’s actually more like a brush technique! The brush technique is unpredictable, and it’s extremely difficult to master it. However, if one can directly comprehend its essence from the paintings, one’s cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.”
“It’s well painted.” Meng Chuan stared at the old painting catalogue. The surface depicted the first painting. The array formation stopped one from probing it with the consciousness, but he could see it with his naked eye.
Meng Chuan examined the first painting…
Meng Chuan could see through the bones, intent, and soul of the painting at a glance. Each brushstroke looked like they were two different strokes, but in reality, the painter had just varied their brush speed-fast and slow.
The brushstrokes’ speed, heaviness, fluidity, realism, and variability… With a single glance, Meng Chuan split the first painting into thousands of brushstrokes in his heart.
Meng Chuan seemed to see Senior Huang Yong personally painting it live. The first painting was only at the Dharma Domain realm, so Meng Chuan completely comprehended the first painting with just a glance. This Selfless Formless Sword is not from the lightning lineage, but it’s not from the water or fire lineage either. Instead, it’s a brush technique that only uses void laws. Meng Chuan nodded slightly.
Huang Yong had used his brush technique to enter the Dao before focusing on the void lineage. Meng Chuan looked relaxed.
“The painting is pretty good. I’ll buy this manual.” Meng Chuan looked at the red-robed Supremacy. “Name your price.”
“Buy?” The red-robed Supremacy was taken aback.
One just needed to learn a legacy once, yet he wanted to buy it?
“Sister Li, this Imperial Lord wants to buy Selfless Formless Sword’s original copy. He wants to make a bid. This is yours. Hurry up and make a decision.” The red-robed Supremacy secretly sent a voice transmission. The other four Supremacies beside him also noticed this.
“Just learning the legacy once would do. Why does he want to buy the original copy? Wouldn’t that cost more Essence Crystals?”
“It’s a good thing to earn more Essence Crystals. Sister Li, your homeworld should have more than one copy of the Selfless Formless Sword manual, right?”
“That is the only copy,” said the female Supremacy via voice transmission. “Senior Huang Yong isn’t a cultivator from my homeworld. This was originally bought in the outer realm and taken back to my homeworld. It’s said that one can comprehend the technique’s essence by studying the paintings. However, nobody in my homeworld has mastered Selfless Formless Sword, even after millions of years. Therefore, I brought it here.”
“Hurry up and give me a price, but don’t scare this Imperial Lord. After all, he’s an Imperial Lord. Imperial Lord-level techniques are useful to them.”
“I won’t sell it for too low a price. After all, it’s the original copy.”
As the five Supremacies conversed, the cyan-clothed female Supremacy walked over and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Imperial Lord. This Selfless Formless Sword manual belongs to my homeworld. I had no choice but to take it here to sell it. If you want it, you can have it for eight Outer Realm Essence Crystals.”
