Calamity of Tomorrow-Chapter 217 - 216 stars pour into swordsmanship
In the dream, Zhou Bai had just entered the fourth level of the Tianhe Star Explosion sword technique when he saw Lv Chongyang standing to one side, his body enveloped in starlight, smiling at Zhou Bai, "Zhou Bai, who would have thought you would progress so quickly in your training? Who said your Twilight Taoist Skill was slow?"
Zhou Bai chuckled, "Teacher, we are now on the same starting line when it comes to the Twilight Taoist Skill."
Lv Chongyang smiled slightly, "Is that so?" With one step forward, he was completely wrapped in starlight, "Child, you still have much to learn."
The next moment, Zhou Bai saw Lv Chongyang disappear in front of him, then he looked up at the light screen and saw Lv Chongyang appearing on the fifth level and, a few seconds later, jumping to the sixth level.
"Damn, that’s crazy!" Zhou Bai exclaimed, "Could it be that Teacher Lv Chongyang also has a laziness value like me for learning skills?"
Seeing Lv Chongyang just fly away and even jumping two levels at once, Zhou Bai quickly focused on the light screen.
After a full minute, seeing that Lv Chongyang had not made any further progress, he nodded his head, "You scared me. I thought Old Lv was about to cheat."
"To think that he could rush up two levels of technique in one go?"
Zhou Bai felt it strange, looked at the stele in front of him introducing the fourth level of Twilight Taoist Skill, knowing the secret might lie within these two levels of Twilight Taoist Skill.
"The Outer Heaven Flying Sword Technique is a Taoist skill that drives sword weapons with alien forces from beyond."
Zhou Bai mused, "If the previous three levels, Myriad Swords Return to the Origin, Heaven and Earth Forge My Sword, Myriad Laws Nourish My Sword, are all sword moves, like an operating system,
then this Outer Heaven Flying Sword Technique is like a power system, which can use alien forces from beyond instead of driving with one’s own Primordial Spirit."
Zhou Bai’s eyes brightened, he took half an hour to read through the entire training method of the Outer Heaven Flying Sword Technique, then walked towards the center of the platform.

Beneath his feet appeared a brilliantly radiant star chart, shimmering with endless light.
Looking at the star chart for a moment, an ancient, desolate feeling rushed over him.
At this moment, Zhou Bai felt as if he were truly in outer space, surrounded by endless darkness, void, and stars.
"This is the Starlight Flying Sword Chart, drawn by ancient swordsmen who entered outer space to observe the starry universe, ultimately based on their own enlightenment."
"Unfortunately, in Jiaojiao’s dream, this Starlight Flying Sword Chart is not the original, missing much of its marvel."
"If I were really to see this Starlight Flying Sword Chart drawn before the distortion of the Heavenly Dao in the Material World, it would probably be easy to misinterpret."
Zhou Bai slowly sat down, pinched a magic formula with his hands, and adjusted his breathing, his mind reflecting the endless void before him.
"By contemplating this Starlight Flying Sword Chart, one can sense the alien forces from beyond."
"After sensing the alien forces from beyond, one can then follow a special method to gather these forces, attempting to drive the sword equipment with the alien forces."
Zhou Bai began to concentrate on spiritual cultivation, and under the enhanced pressure, he felt the entire process of cultivation was incredibly smooth.
After ten hours, Zhou Bai’s eyes, filled with bright starlight, seemed as if billions of stars were flickering incessantly.
"The so-called alien forces from beyond are probably things like cosmic radiation, star gravity. Although they are said to be from beyond, in fact, the entire universe, the entire planet, every inch of space in Dao School, is filled with these forces."
"Being able to utilize these omnipresent, seemingly infinite forces is precisely the perfect power drive for the Flying Sword Technique."
At this moment, Zhou Bai could sense the omnipresent alien forces from the air anytime, anywhere. Of course, he knew these were not the dream’s alien forces but those in the real world where his body was located.
He looked up at the time, 40:12:21.
The next moment, Zhou Bai’s whole body twinkled with endless starlight, and he had already stepped into the fifth level.
What appeared before Zhou Bai at this moment was a vast expanse of starry sky.
"It clearly is on the same mountain, but what I see here is a starry sky, something that only makes sense in a dream."
Zhou Bai lowered his head to look at the platform below him, searching for the stele explaining the Twilight Taoist Skill.
But now he saw three other cultivators, each sitting in different places, either pinching a magic formula or muttering to themselves, clearly each immersed in their own cultivation.
As most of the previous practitioners who had come here had cultivated to the fourth level and above, Zhou Bai had gradually encountered other cultivators from the fourth level onwards.
Such as Lv Chongyang he had encountered at the fourth level, and now these three individuals.
However, Zhou Bai did not recognize these three, and they were not familiar with Zhou Bai. After all, apart from the teachers watching the light screen outside and a few people who paid special attention to Zhou Bai, such as Zheng Wentian and Liu Bingxin, most people did not keep checking the light screen to track other cultivators’ progress.
Thus, when Zhou Bai arrived, the three did not show any reaction, simply seizing the opportunity to cultivate.
Zhou Bai also came to a stele, where the cultivation method of the Twilight Taoist Skill for this level was inscribed.
"Starlight Charging Sword Technique, infusing alien forces from beyond into the sword equipment, storing it in the sword equipment as a Taoist technique."
"So that’s the case, passed down in the same tradition. No wonder Old Lv could cross two levels at once. Had he already guessed this beforehand and tested it?"
A confident smile appeared on Zhou Bai’s face, with his current talents, he believed he would soon catch up with Old Lv.
Twelve hours later, Zhou Bai, covered in starlight and sword light entwining around him, took one step forth and had already arrived at the sixth level.
Already on this level were five people cultivating, among whom Lv Chongyang was one.
"Old Lv, we meet again."
Lv Chongyang looked at Zhou Bai in surprise, "Zhou Bai? You’re so fast?"
Zhou Bai smiled and said, "Old Lv, watch out or I might surpass you."
Lv Chongyang snorted, "You’re still too green to surpass your teacher."
Two hours later, Lv Chongyang, enveloped in a swath of starlight, left, and had already rushed to the seventh level.
Zhou Bai watched his retreating figure with a face full of fighting spirit, continuing to cultivate.
"This level’s Star River Forging Sword Technique not only uses alien forces as the power for the sword equipment but also uses it to enhance the lethality of the sword equipment."
"Old Lv, I will definitely catch up to you."
On the other side, when Lv Chongyang reached the seventh level, he indeed felt a sweat on his forehead, "This kid Zhou Bai, does he have such a terrifying talent for Twilight Taoist Skill? At this rate, he’s almost catching up to me, right?"
"No, I have to push harder as well."
"What if this kid Zhou Bai catches up? Wouldn’t I die of embarrassment?"
Just thinking about it, Lv Chongyang felt fully motivated, once again concentrating all his energy to start cultivating.
