Others Level Up, but I Pursue Cultivation!

Chapter 113: Chapter 105: A Decade of Sharpening a Sword, the Demon-Subduing Pass Enemy-Slaying Sword!

Su Xing’s short-term goal was to kill the Divinity Transformation Stage Damned Zong, and then inherit his legacy.

However, achieving this was far from easy, as Damned Zong’s strength was at least equivalent to that of a Martial Emperor Level, plus he had lived for a thousand years and had too many life-saving tricks up his sleeve. If not careful, Su Xing could end up capsizing in a gutter.

That’s why Su Xing reckoned that he needed to at least reach the Qi Refining Divinity Transformation along with Body Refinement Divine Strength Realm, and also be skilled in offensive techniques, to have a sure grip on Damned Zong.

To reach this goal, Su Xing had no choice but to simulate accumulating his foundation multiple times.

At present, the Purple Talent sword fanatic, along with this “Sword Canon Compendium,” undoubtedly gave Su Xing hope.

Even if it meant only mastering the Earth Sword, let alone the first part, the Human Sword, just as stated in the compendium, to be invincible among men, Su Xing would have the confidence to defeat Damned Zong.

Of course, to be on the safe side, his strength and cultivation level also needed a boost.

Su Xing thought this way, and then continued simulating.

[In the ninth year, after failing to concoct the Divine Strength Pill, you focused all your attention on cultivation.]

[You practiced the Sword Canon Compendium every day, gaining new insights each time, and your swordsmanship progressed by leaps and bounds.]

[That same year, with a sufficient supply of Demonic Beasts’ Flesh Essence and daily consumption of Origin Martial Pills, your cultivation level rose to the ninth level of the Origin Martial Realm.]

[In the tenth year, your understanding of the sword deepened even further, but knowing that rewards come with effort, you didn’t reach for what was beyond your grasp and didn’t chase after things like Sword Intent or Sword Qi. Instead, you solidly practiced each sword technique and perfected each movement.]

[That same year, due to the abundant Spiritual Energy in the Spirit Field Blessed Land, your Qi Refining Cultivation climbed higher, turning you into a Nascent Soul Stage third layer cultivator.]

[In the eleventh year, having practiced swordsmanship for ten years, you had the basic four types of sword techniques down pat, with dozens of foundational sword moves drilled into muscle memory. No longer satisfied with the most basic swordsmanship, you sought to learn the sword techniques meant for killing!]

[You knew well that the path of the sword was created for killing people, slaying demons, and eradicating all enemies. If you spent ten years only practicing basic sword techniques, you would never achieve substantial improvement.]

[In the twelfth year, at your strong insistence, you joined Demon-Subduing Pass’s military and became a member of the border warriors.]

[The high echelons of the Great Xia initially put all sorts of obstacles in your way, believing your identity was too important to risk at Demon-Subduing Pass; they also felt that the Pass didn’t lack the strength of just one person.]

[But you knew well that you were not fighting to please others, but rather to refine your sword techniques. In the end, after your persistence, the Great Xia Military agreed to let you join Demon-Subduing Pass to fight the enemy.]

[For your safety, the Great Xia Military dispatched several Heavenly King Level powerhouses and one Martial Emperor Level powerhouse to protect you. Their orders from the military were clear: you were not to suffer any mishaps before their deaths.]

[You weren’t worried about your own safety, knowing that Luo Shuying, the Legendary powerhouse, was always watching over you on the battlefield, and unless a Legendary Level member of the Foreign Race personally made a move, your life would not be in danger.]

[You joined Demon-Subduing Pass and to ensure that your swordsmanship got enough practice, you disguised yourself and started as the most ordinary soldier, fighting recklessly on the battlefield.]

[Your strength was formidable enough to kill Heavenly King Level Demonic Beasts, but you had no experience fighting people on the battlefield, so you decided to start off by picking on the weaker targets.]

[In the first month of joining Demon-Subduing Pass, you slaughtered 36 Grandmaster Level Demonic Beasts, 178 Master Level Demonic Beasts, and countless others below the Gold Level!]

[In the second month of joining Demon-Subduing Pass, you slaughtered 60 Grandmaster Level Demonic Beasts, 270 Master Level Demonic Beasts, and innumerable Demonic Beasts below the Gold Level!]

[In the third month, by virtue of your military achievements, you were promoted to Chiliarch, commanding a thousand men.]

[But you didn’t care about any of this. All you wanted was to constantly battle against strong enough foes to hone your swordsmanship.]

[In the fourth month, countless Demonic Beasts fell by your hand, and you began to set your sights beyond the Grandmaster Level Demonic Beasts, eyeing the Demon Kings.]

[At first, although you could win battles by overpowering with strength, due to insufficient combat experience, your victories were rather messy.]

[However, as you continued to fight, your understanding of the “sword of killing” deepened, and you started to aim to kill with every move, without any hesitation.]

[In one month, you slayed a total of seven Demon Kings! With your military merit, you became a Ten Thousand Commander at Demon-Subduing Pass, even commanding two Heavenly King Level professionals.]

[In the fifth month, still engrossed in combat and honing your skills, you ended the lives of more than ten Demon Kings that month!]

[In the sixth month, your astounding military exploits caught the attention of the Foreign Race, which sent out six Demon Kings to besiege and kill you.]

[You, with a single sword, battled against the six Demon Kings for a full day and night, and when the rest of the soldiers found you, you were surrounded by the shredded remains of Demon Kings, with blood forming rivers.]

[In this battle, you too were severely wounded, with a gash over a foot long on your abdomen, which forced you to retreat from the front lines to begin healing.]

Upon reading this, Su Xing’s face grew grave.

“Indeed! I’ve always focused on elevating my realm and strength, but neglected the enhancement of my combat capabilities and experience in actual fighting…”

“In such situations, dealing with weaker enemies might still be fine, but when facing foes of comparable strength or even stronger, I’ll definitely be at a disadvantage because of this!”
