The Birth of Sword God

Chapter 387 - 340: Will Chu Huaixu Master Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root?

The area near the Cultivation Hall was already surrounded tightly.

Over ten thousand Spirit Swords gathered here, but overall, they were distributed irregularly.

This scene was noticeably different from when the Sword Venerable previously used Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root.

In the Sword Venerable’s hands, over ten thousand Spirit Swords seemed to converge into a sword array.

Unlike now, where they were scattered.

Xiahou Yue and the others used their Divine Sense, and naturally, they could first discover that the person who caused over ten thousand swords to break through the air was Chu Huaixu, who was meditating cross-legged!

The Female State Preceptor couldn’t help but have her eyes light up slightly, standing in the air with interest.

As for the cultivators gathered outside the Cultivation Hall, they were still somewhat bewildered.

They didn’t know who caused such a shocking scene!

But no matter what, from the perspective of bystanders, this scene resembled someone trying to learn Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root and already showing signs of success!

Although these Spirit Swords were arranged very scattered, weren’t they all summoned?

"Someone is experiencing Sword Enlightenment!" commented a Sword Cultivator with not so high cultivation.

"Never thought that one day I would be fortunate enough to witness someone comprehend Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root in person!"

"This must undoubtedly be recorded in history; there have been very few Sword Cultivators in a thousand years who learned Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root!"

"Who on earth has such comprehension!"

These people stood outside the Cultivation Hall, looking inward, and they already harbored suspicions in their hearts.

In the air, those renowned cultivation giants had already gathered.

As for who among those residing in the Cultivation Hall had the highest talent...

It was naturally Profound Yellow Leader Chu Huaixu!

Moreover, he was already dubbed as the second Dao ancestor and had several Borrowed Sword experiences.

"Could it be Chu Huaixu experiencing Sword Enlightenment?" someone couldn’t help but say.

"I also think it’s possible!" someone agreed.

Of course, many people also refuted.

"I think it’s unlikely; his cultivation is only at the Third Realm."

"Yeah, with Third Realm Divine Sense, it’s impossible to guide so many swords, even a hundred would be exaggerated, let alone over ten thousand!"

But soon, a Sword Cultivator jumped out to refute.

"You aren’t Sword Cultivators! You simply don’t understand!"

"Yes, since I arrived here, I’ve chatted with many fellow Daoists; in my heart, I’m almost certain it’s Chu Huaixu!"

Nearby, a cultivator wondered, "Oh? Fellow Sword Cultivator, what do you mean by that?"

A short Sword Cultivator raised his hand and pointed up, saying, "See that? That one’s my Lifebound Sword!"

The dozens of people surrounding him immediately looked up.

How would they know which one among that pile of swords it was?

"Oh! It’s the blue one! Can you see it?" The short Sword Cultivator became anxious, "The one with the sword tassel on top!"

"Oh, oh! Now I see it!" the crowd responded.

The short Sword Cultivator was satisfied and said, "Though it’s only a Middle Grade Spirit Sword, it’s among the Upper Grade Middle Grade Spirit Swords!"

He began to boast about himself.

Everyone looked at him eagerly, curious, and reluctant to respond harshly, so they urged, "Don’t keep us in suspense, fellow Daoist."

"Alright, alright!" He raised his hand, signaling everyone to stay calm, "You all know that today the Sword Venerable also performed Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root, right?"

"Yes!"

"So my sword has been borrowed twice today, is that right?"

"Yes!" The crowd only felt he was stating the obvious.

"Being my Lifebound Sword, it communicates with my heart; how could I not perceive its state?" the short Sword Cultivator began eloquently:

"The two times it was drawn, the sensations were distinctly different."

"Now you see the sword trembling and emitting a sword ringing sound."

"But I can perceive the Sword Spirit’s fear, or rather reverence, and... submission!"

"This aspect is entirely different from when the Sword Venerable borrowed it!"

"But you should know, when Chu Huaixu’s Sword Heart broke through previously, all surrounding Spirit Swords responded similarly!"

The short Sword Cultivator clapped his hands and exclaimed loudly, "It matches up perfectly!"

With these words, the group of cultivators immediately looked at the other Sword Cultivators.

These Sword Cultivators, dressed simply, stood in the fierce cold wind, first adjusting their posture by standing sideways, then slightly turning their heads, and finally, nodding slightly.

"You don’t practice swordsmanship, you don’t understand."

This left the rest of the cultivators looking at each other.

If only one person said this, it wouldn’t be very credible.

But if every Sword Cultivator said this, then it’s essentially confirmed to be Chu Huaixu.

This allowed the news to spread quickly, from one to ten, ten to a hundred, a hundred to a thousand...

Suddenly, all the cultivators gathered here reached a consensus.

"Chu Huaixu is experiencing Sword Enlightenment!"

"He only watched the Sword Venerable perform Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root once, and he already learned it!"

"Terrifying beyond measure! This child’s talent in Sword Dao is truly terrifying beyond measure!"

...

...

At this moment, Chu Huaixu is still seated in meditation on the mat.

Under the system’s isolation, even Xiahou Yue and others cannot fully discern his state.

He knows very well in his heart that currently it is entirely the Heart Sword upgrading, entering an extremely mystical state and showcasing its divine prowess.

This further solidifies his belief that his Sword Heart: Ten Thousand Swords Unite, as well as the Heart Sword within the Sea of Consciousness, are closely linked with the advanced version of Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root.

In the high air, Xiahou Yue and others stand beside Sword Venerable and others, frowning as they gaze down at the Spirit Sword below.

"Is this Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root? It doesn’t quite seem like it," the National Guardian remarked.

At their cultivation level, they possess the Power of Origin within, allowing them to see things more clearly.

This scene evidently has nothing to do with Technique.

It seems more like a large-scale phenomenon.

A super advanced version of Chu Huaixu’s Sword Heart breakthrough from that day.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhi couldn’t help but let out a cold snort.

He glanced at the middle-aged scholar and said, "Why don’t you explain it to them?"

"Yes, Elder Jiang." The middle-aged scholar remained as polite and gentle as ever.

Although he is now near invincible after entering the Ninth Realm, his demeanor has not changed at all.

"Actually, observing this scene, I can almost affirm that what Young Friend Chu is currently comprehending is probably not the Dao Ancestor’s Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root." Sword Venerable hesitated for a moment before speaking in a slightly speculative tone.

"Hmm?" The others were slightly taken aback.

"I haven’t fully grasped Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root, so this is just my speculation." The middle-aged scholar smiled with some embarrassment.

However, no one believes him.

I really don’t buy your nonsense!

Isn’t what you did still considered Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root?

Then what should the true Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root look like!

The middle-aged scholar, seeing that everyone was unwilling to believe him, could only sigh with helplessness.

He simply continued, "The current Chu Huaixu actually is already quite developed in form."

"The path he walks is quite different from the Dao Ancestor’s Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root."

"When he completely awakens, I dare not say he’ll surely be stronger than the Technique created by the Dao Ancestor."

"But definitely far surpasses mine." He said with a determined tone.

Due to the middle-aged scholar’s firm tone, everyone instantly understood that he was not being modest.

However, for Xiahou Yue and the others, they can only feel:

"Why?"

On the contrary, those from East Continent Mirror Country who have more contact with Chu Huaixu, although shocked, did not think too much about it.

Haven’t enough miracles happened to this kid?

Cheng Yuyan looked at the Spirit Sword gathered below, lightly shaking the fan in his hand, finding it very interesting, he said with a smile:

"This matter will likely soon spread throughout the Profound Yellow Realm."

"By the time he claims he doesn’t know Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Root, probably no one will believe him, haha, hahaha!"

...

...

Time ticked by second after second.

After approximately one more incense stick’s time, Chu Huaixu’s Spiritual Embryo breakthrough was finally completed.

But for some reason, this time he felt incredibly fatigued on the Divine Sense level, as if completely exhausted.

As soon as he opened his eyes, he fainted away.

And the thousands of swords gathered above suddenly no longer stayed in the air.

"Crash—!"

Thousands of Spirit Swords scattered all over the ground like this!

This left the surrounding Sword Cultivators dumbfounded.

Isn’t it finished! Not going back?

Do we still need to pick them up ourselves!

The scene instantly became chaotic for a time.

A group of Great Cultivators from Moon Country: "..."

And this time, Chu Huaixu was unconscious for a full day and night.

When he opened his eyes, it was the night of the second day.

Just as he was about to get up to check his condition, he heard Xiahou Yue’s voice from outside.

"Chu Leader, Your Majesty invites you."

...
