Transmigration After Becoming Love Saint-Chapter 517 - 176 I’ll Help You Cross the Tribulation!_2

Chapter 517: Chapter 176 I’ll Help You Cross the Tribulation!_2

Outside Gu Yun Mountain, numerous cultivators had already slowly gathered.

It had been hundreds of years since anyone in the Cultivation World had ascended. It was an era rich with spiritual energy, where one theoretically could break through the void and roam the universe; however, this feat remained elusive to countless cultivators.

Crowned as the top Sword Immortal of the Nine Provinces, Yan Sword Immortal’s Ascension Heavenly Tribulation naturally impacted the entire Nine Provinces.

「In the Holy Land」

Wang Mu looked ahead. At the very front was the sealed, mysterious zone. The sky above it was full of dense patterns, enveloping the mystery within.

Wang Mu took a deep breath and slowly stepped forward. Before long, he had approached those ancient patterns.

It resembled a sky city lost in the clouds, suspended in the void.

This seal... Wang Mu frowned slightly. "It doesn’t seem like a normal seal..."

After some thought, Wang Mu gently touched the fascinating patterns.

In an instant, light began to bloom, and the surrounding landscape changed in a flash.

Wang Mu was startled. What? This is...

The figure of Heroine Yan slowly appeared. An extreme Sword Intent, carrying a sense of familiarity, emanated from within.

Is it... a sword? Wang Mu squinted; inside the seal was indeed a sword.

If that was the case, it indeed matched his conjecture. He now knew what the Heavenly Revelation Secret Treasure was.

Next, he had to see what exactly lay within this seal.

As the boundless Sword Intent rushed forward, various scenes slowly appeared.

It felt like a return to the very beginning.

It’s the Yunxia Sword Sect... Wang Mu fell silent.

Among mountains as misty as clouds, the dilapidated entrance of the Sword Sect appeared in Wang Mu’s sight.

A figure appeared outside the entrance. It was Yan Qingwu.

At this moment, she wasn’t the peerless Sword Immortal, but a mere swordsman.

She held two swords in her hands, one of which was the Green Frost Sword. The other sword’s aura seemed to overwhelm the heavens, its blade glinting with a rainbow light.

"It’s the Sky-cutting Sword," Wang Mu said, taking a deep breath.

It seemed this was after the great upheaval of heaven and earth.

Although Heroine Yan hadn’t created any illusion trials in this vision, Wang Mu clearly remembered many events involving her. Whether it was their first meeting, his Mid Stage sword enlightenment at the Sword Sect, or the later flower assembly, Wang Mu could easily recall them all.

In the final battle, she did participate... So after the battle, indeed... she obtained the Sky-cutting Sword... Wang Mu silently watched, like an observer.

Previously, at the Fengyue Sect, the appearance of the Shadow Hong Saber had made Wang Mu realize that his two weapons, the Sky-cutting Sword and the Shadow Hong Saber, must have been obtained by different heroines from the game. The Shadow Hong Saber was with Mu Hongyuan, so the Sky-cutting Sword was likely with Yan Qingwu.

This sword was extraordinary.

In the game, this sword was forged by Yan Qingwu using a secret treasure from the Yunxia Sword Sect—a sword core made from an Outer Heaven Meteor. Wang Mu had then crafted the final blade in the town below the Yunxia Sword Sect. After he gifted her the Green Frost Sword, Yan Qingwu’s return gift had been the prototype of this very sword. Later, as he progressed through the game, it transformed into an exceedingly sharp Divine Sword.

It became an extremely practical Divine Sword in the game’s later stages. Essentially, for players who specialized in swords, this was the best one available.

If a player didn’t romance Yan Qingwu, they would need to build favor with the Yunxia Sword Sect and complete a series of events to obtain this sword core. On the Love Saint Route, obtaining the Sky-cutting Sword was a natural progression.

Obtaining this sword in the Mid Stage and combining it with the Love Nine Sword Technique allowed players to sweep through most battles. Even if many battles on the Love Saint Route were challenging, players could still perform exceptionally well. Furthermore, after successfully romancing Yan Qingwu, they would receive a "Love Stronger than Gold" combat bonus. This bonus was powerful enough that even the final boss, Piao Miaoxu, could be gravely injured with just a few slashes.

After the Gate of Apocalypse opened, the Shadow Hong Saber was affected... This sword must have also been affected... Wang Mu thought, watching the Sky-cutting Sword in the vision.

Its Sword Intent soared to the heavens, and the blade seemed eager to fly off, emitting a vibrant hum.

In the vision, Yan Qingwu gripped the sword tightly, as if fearing the Sky-cutting Sword would fly away.

After the upheaval of heaven and earth... she took the Sky-cutting Sword back to the Yunxia Sword Sect... She must be... in the Sword Sect now, waiting for this sword’s master to return, so she can practice swords with him... Wang Mu sighed softly.

The Yunxia Sword Sect had already been destroyed by the Mid Stage of the game. In this vision, it was now an extremely dilapidated wasteland.

As Wang Mu had expected, the vision showed Heroine Yan returning to the Yunxia Sword Sect. She spent a few months simply repairing its guest quarters and then began practicing her swordplay day after day in the back mountains, completely immersed in the Sword Dao.

The Yunxia Sword Sect itself had its own cultivated farmland, and its living facilities, though basic, were all present. Unfortunately, Heroine Yan didn’t know how to farm. So, when hungry, she would go down the mountain to help nearby villagers, exchanging her assistance for food. When thirsty, she would drink water from the Yunxia Sword Sect’s well.

As spiritual energy permeated the land after the upheaval, her Cultivation advanced rapidly, all its brilliance contained deep within her.

Spirit Root... Wang Mu thought, looking down in contemplation.

After several years atop Yunxia Mountain, surviving on what little nature provided, Heroine Yan comprehended the initial version of the Taixiao Sword Mysterious Skill, also known as the Upper Heaven Energy Introduction Technique.

"Her talent is truly strong," Wang Mu said, shaking his head.

However, Wang Mu noticed a problem: her Sword Dao Realm hadn’t advanced much. This stagnation continued for decades.

From Wang Mu’s perspective in the vision, these decades passed as if they were a single day, an endless repetition. It was a routine that most people truly couldn’t sustain, enduring days that seemed arduous and were, in reality, even more so.

The Sword Dao is eternal.

With Heroine Yan’s talent for the Sword Dao, theoretically, her progress shouldn’t have stagnated like this.

She’s practicing the Love Nine Swords... Wang Mu fell silent.

The Love Nine Swords, in its initial version, required practice with a beloved partner to unleash its immense power.
