However, cultivation techniques and skills were two different things.
Lu Yuan wasn’t planning to obtain the thunder and Yang cultivation techniques for the time being.
He had not forgotten what he relied on to rise to power.
The key to his rise was his skill interface.
As for special skills like cultivation techniques, the system could not directly advance them.
Lu Yuan needed to find a suitable cultivation technique for himself that could be advanced by the system.
Lu Yuan did not have the time to search for them in the short term.
Moreover, cultivation techniques could only be cultivated by his main body and could not be cultivated by his clones.
Therefore, Lu Yuan’s main focus for now was on cultivating his other skills.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan transferred his consciousness to the courtyard.
In the courtyard, a guy with a blurry face was practicing his swordsmanship.
This person who was practicing the sword was Lu Yuan’s N0.1 tool clone.
Ever since Lu Yuan had successfully cultivated the Fire Cicada Nine Transformations and possessed the ability to summon clones, he had let his clone practice swordsmanship and Item Manipulation.
Since the clone did not know fatigue and did not know resentment, therefore, in just a few years, it had already cultivated these two skills to a sufficient level to be advanced by the system.
[Level 10 Wind-riding Sword Control Technique: 994.7/10000]
[Level 10 The Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques: 9978/10000]
Lu Yuan was still brooding over something. He had already fought many times after leaving the mountain.
Although he had been cautious, he had revealed many of his techniques.
If someone was deliberately collecting information about his techniques, they would be able to obtain a lot of data.
The skills that he had revealed could naturally no longer be considered trump cards.
Therefore, Lu Yuan planned to add to his trump cards.
Moreover, Lu Yuan judged that the great battle between the righteous and the devils was about to reach a fever pitch.
Once the battle reached a certain level of intensity, even if he wanted to hide in Moon Mountain Pass to avoid the battle, he might not be able to do so.
Moon Mountain Pass was actually located on the outskirts of the Full Moon Mountain Range.
This place wasn’t far from the battlefield of cultivators in the Full Moon Mountain Range.
It was possible that the battle would eventually spread here.
When that time came, as a disciple of the Qingyun Sect who was guarding Moon Mountain Pass, he would have no choice but to participate even if he did not want to.
Thus, increasing the number of trump cards he had and strengthening his life-preservation methods were Lu Yuan’s priorities now.
Having more skills and life-saving means was not a bad thing.
As for cultivating more techniques, it was not something that could be completed in a day.
If he wanted to increase his strength in a short period of time, then he could only work on his skills.
The advancement of the Wind-riding Sword Control Technique and the Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques would undoubtedly greatly benefit him.
Lu Yuan had already obtained quite a number of benefits from the advancement of his Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique.
Therefore, he was very curious about the effects of the advancement of the Wind-riding Sword Control Technique and the Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques.
As he thought of this, Lu Yuan directly recalled his clone.
The next moment, the result of the clone’s practice throughout the night entered Lu Yuan’s mind.
[Ding! Your skill, Wind-riding Sword Control Technique, has met the advancement requirements. Please choose the advancement options.]
[Ding! Advancing the Wind-riding Sword Control Technique.]
[1. Increase the flying speed of the Sword Control Technique]
[2. Reduce the consumption of spiritual energy when controlling the sword.]
[3. Increase the power of the sword.]
Out of the three options, Lu Yuan made his choice without much hesitation.
In the world of martial arts, speed was king!
In some aspects, a real man had to settle things quickly!
As long as one was fast enough, no one could stop them!
[Ding! Your skill, Wind-riding Sword Control Technique, has been upgraded. Advanced skill obtained: One Qi Sword Control Technique]
[Skill: One Qi Sword Control Technique]
[Effect: Through the method of turning one’s qi into a source, one can infuse their spiritual energy and soul into the flying sword to form a qi sword. Every time the skill is upgraded, the number of qi swords increases by one.]
Lu Yuan pondered for a moment as he looked at the One Qi Sword Control Technique. Then, he came to the open space outside.
He circulated the spiritual energy in his body and executed the One Qi Sword Control Technique.
A large amount of spiritual energy mixed with soul power covered the flying sword, making it even more convenient to control it. Moreover, the speed of the flying sword was doubled compared to before.
With just the original Wind-riding Sword Control Technique, Lu Yuan, who was only at Level 5 of the Foundation Establishment Stage, could already achieve a speed comparable to that of a Pseudo Core Stage cultivator.
The One Qi Sword Control Technique built upon this foundation.
Lu Yuan studied it for a while and discovered that the reason why the One Qi Sword Control Technique could display speed that was even more shocking than the Wind-riding Sword Control Technique was due to the use of the divine soul.
In fact, in a sense, the relationship between cultivators and spiritual energy was like the relationship between a car and gasoline.
On the other hand, the cultivation techniques practiced by cultivators were like different engines and equipment.
Therefore, when Lu Yuan’s car was fitted with a better engine, naturally, its speed would increase by several times.
Other than that, similar to Lu Yuan being able to sense the strength of others’ divine souls after mastering the Divine Soul Pill Refinement Technique, he also possessed some special passive abilities after mastering the One Qi Sword Control Technique.
Lu Yuan felt that his current understanding of swordsmanship had risen by a level.
This was because the system’s advancement did not merely allow Lu Yuan to use advanced skills. Instead, it allowed him to understand the effects of these skills.
As a skill that had advanced twice, the One Qi Sword Control Technique could already be considered a special sword control divine ability.
Using qi to control a sword and transforming qi into a sword were not easy tasks.
Lu Yuan was not sure if his understanding of swordsmanship was comparable to that of sword cultivators.
However, based on his judgment of his current swordsmanship, the difference in swordsmanship between him and a sword cultivator of the same level should not be too great.
It was not an exaggeration to say that he was more or less a sword cultivator now.
In Lu Yuan’s own words, after he obtained the One Qi Sword Control Technique, his understanding of swordsmanship had directly increased by +1.
In the future, learning similar swordsmanship would also be much faster.
After obtaining the One Qi Sword Control Technique, Lu Yuan began to choose the next skill to advance.
[Ding! Your skill, Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques, has met the requirements for advancement. Please choose the options for advancement.] [Ding! Advancing the Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques.]
[1. Increase the precision of item manipulation.]
[2. Reduce spiritual energy consumption when manipulating items.]
[3. Increase the number of items that can be manipulated at once.]
Unlike before, when he could quickly decide on one of the options, Lu Yuan surprisingly hesitated when faced with the options to advance his Five Elements’ Manipulation Techniques.
This time, should he choose quantity, duration or precision?
What a difficult decision..
