Chapter 1559: Controlling multiple sabers
It was a must for cultivators to have a style such that they could sit at home, drink tea, talking and laughing with fellow cultivators, and have their sword or saber fly out a thousand miles away to take the enemy’s head.
However, Song Shuhang had a lot of treasure sabers, which one should he use?
The treasured saber Broken Tyrant? The invisible saber insect? The Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades?
In addition, he could also use the ‘Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber’ or even ‘Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword’!
The level of the treasured saber Broken Tyrant is a bit low. I’m afraid that its lethality would be a bit lacking, Song Shuhang thought to himself.
Broken Tyrant was the saber that had been with him for the longest amount of time, but it was only a Fourth Stage saber, and it did not carry much lethality. Although it was equipped with the Eighth Stage whale bone that had been tempered by the heavenly tribulation, the whale bone was only a guardrail and did not improve the saber’s quality. Next time, when he got the chance, should he ask Fairy Sixth Cultivator of True Virtue to work on Broken Tyrant?
He could consider using the invisible saber insect… but since there were six Celestials, he felt that the saber insect wouldn’t be able to kill them all at once.
Therefore, he should first attack the Celestials with something else, while having the invisible saber insect attack afterward. Anyway, the saber insect wouldn’t be seen by the Celestials, and he could have it hidden right beside them.
Song Shuhang suddenly thought, Wait, why am I thinking of only sending a single saber? Others can control one saber when they have one core. With me having five cores, doesn’t that mean that I can send out five at the same time? Wouldn’t that also let me deal with them in one move?
And so, he took out Broken Tyrant, the invisible saber insect, and the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades.
The Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades could target two Celestials.
If he were to add Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, the numbers added up perfectly!
I am Song “Numerous Golden Cores, Numerous Sabers” Shuhang.
With a lot of golden cores and sabers, you can really do whatever you want.
Song Shuhang called out to Lady Onion, who was in the Inner World, “Lady Onion, lend me the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber for a while.”
Lady Onion raised her head and joked, “I don’t have any gold coins in my game account~ Top up for me, and I’ll lend it to you!”
It had been quite a while since Lady Onion had her onion sprouts last pinched. During this time, she had also gradually come to understand Song Shuhang’s character, so she had become a lot more courageous and less restrained, causing her to occasionally make some small jokes.
However, when Lady Onion said that, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber had already flown up, taking the initiative to answer Song Shuhang’s call.
Lady Onion: “…”
The power of the ❮Tome of Never-Ending Tears❯ was triggered. She lay on Senior Turtle’s shell, tears streaming down her face. Am I really the Eighth Cultivator of True Virtue? In theory, I should be the master of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, right?
Song Shuhang said boldly, “Don’t worry, I’ll top up your gold coins.”
He was already prepared to use the golden sand in his Inner World, and exchange it with Cave Lord Snow Wolf for something else. If that didn’t work, he had also gotten a lot of magical treasures from the Celestials. He could have those exchanged for spirit stones and money.
At that time, if Lady Onion wanted in-game currency, it wouldn’t be a problem at all.
Song Shuhang called out again, “Fairy Waiting for a Promise, let Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword come out.”
The virtuous lamia squeezed out half of her body from behind Song Shuhang, lazily opened her mouth to spit out Scarlet Heaven Sword, and quickly went back again—she was rather listless today.
At this time, the invisible saber insect and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber were circling around Song Shuhang.
Scarlet Heaven Sword said, “Yo, Shuhang, are you going to do morning exercises?”
Song Shuhang replied, “No, this time I’ve locked onto six Celestials and want to use the saber controlling technique to deal with them.”
“Six Celestials? What is their strength?” Scarlet Heaven Sword asked.
Song Shuhang said, “I can’t tell for certain, but they should be at the Fifth Stage, right? I used the ❮Hateful Celestial Radar Technique❯ to sense them.”
“You brought me out to deal with a few weaklings at the Fifth Stage?” Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword was dumbfounded.
It was an Immortal-level weapon, and it was in a state of ‘full energy’.
If it wanted to, it could kill a Ninth Stage Tribulation Transcender Realm with a single slash!
Yet, it had actually been brought out to deal with a few weaklings at the Fifth Stage. Wasn’t this excessive?
Scarlet Heaven Sword added, “Even though Scarlet Heaven filled me up with energy, this energy shouldn’t be used in vain. We should save it for opponents at the Eighth Stage or higher, preferably the Ninth Stage.”
Some time ago, when Song Shuhang had faced a big shot, it was out of energy and couldn’t fight properly. It became frustrated just thinking about it.
“That makes sense.” Song Shuhang nodded and said, “Then, Senior Scarlet Heaven Sword can simply watch. I want to try and see if I can control several sabers at once.”
Scarlet Heaven Sword asked in confusion, “Control several sabers?”
Song Shuhang said, “Exactly.”
He first stretched out his hand to point at the treasured saber Broken Tyrant and used the ‘saber controlling technique’ on it.
Broken Tyrant floated up and turned according to Song Shuhang’s will.
Along with this, Song Shuhang also used the ‘Saber-Nurturing Technique’.
“Hum~”
A hum came from Broken Tyrant. It then rose sharply, ready to go.
“Very good, it doesn’t take that much effort,” Song Shuhang said. Afterward, he stretched out his hand to point at the invisible saber insect, and used the ‘saber controlling technique’ and the ‘Saber-Nurturing Technique’.
The invisible saber insect already had a mind, so when he used the ‘saber controlling technique’ on it, it consumed less than half the energy he used for Broken Tyrant.
Moreover, the effect of the Saber-Nurturing Technique on it’ was much more evident. The saber insect kept on conveying that it was very ‘comfortable’ to Song Shuhang.
“Next, the twin blades.” Song Shuhang stretched out his hand and touched the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades, releasing the Sixth Stage seal on them.
If he undid the Seventh and Eighth Stage seals as well, that would consume too much energy. For the current Song Shuhang, the most practical state was the Sixth Stage state.
He then used the same combination of ‘saber controlling technique’ and ‘Saber-Nurturing Technique’.
Because it was his life-bound magical treasure, the two techniques were even more effective when used on the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades.
The twin blades, the saber insect, and Broken Tyrant were now all lined up in a row, floating in front of Song Shuhang.
Song Shuhang mused, “I feel that I’ve still got a lot of energy left.”
The five golden cores in his body continuously provided him with spiritual energy, and coupled with the spiritual energy of the Sixth Stage ghost spirit, Song Shuhang felt very relaxed when controlling four sabers.
Song Shuhang said, “Next, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber!”
The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber was indispensable for this attack.
The Celestials were all inside their aircraft. If he wanted to break the defense of the aircraft, he had to use the sharpness of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
After all, it was a primordial treasure.
Even if no special buffs were added to it, it could still cut apart the Celestial aircraft like tofu.
Song Shuhang stretched his hand and touched the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, trying to use the saber controlling technique on it.
The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber cooperated with Song Shuhang and entered the saber control mode.
Then, Song Shuhang thought about it and used the Saber-Nurturing Technique on it.
When the ❮Saber-Nurturing Technique❯ fell on Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, Song Shuhang suddenly felt that his mind had connected with the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber.
He and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber seemed to have become one.
The saber was him, and he was the saber.
“F*ck, this is One with the Saber Realm,” Scarlet Heaven Sword couldn’t help but say aloud. This was unscientific.
Saber intent and the One with the Saber Realm were pursued by all saber cultivators.
Moreover, the One with the Saber Realm was much more difficult to comprehend than saber intent.
After comprehending saber intent, one would generally be able to use it steadily and have it become a part of their own combat power.
However, achieving the One with the Saber Realm depended on one’s luck, as well as the state of the person and their saber… There were various other factors that come into play as well.
There were times when the cultivator was in a good state, but the treasured saber wasn’t, and this would make it impossible to enter the One with the Saber state.
Song Shuhang said softly, “This is the One with the Saber Realm?”
This feeling was unexpectedly wonderful.
It was as if he had rid himself of the restraints of his body and entered the perspective of the saber.
This kind of perspective, which belonged to the saber, brought Song Shuhang’s understanding of the ❮Three Thousand Sabers Scripture❯ to an even higher level.
As long as I have a saber in hand, there is nothing in the world that can stop me.
Song Shuhang yelled, “Saber controlling technique, slash!”
The Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber took the lead, rushing at a speed that far surpassed the other sabers.
Behind it was the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades. However, the distance between it and the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber was constantly increasing…
As for Broken Tyrant and the invisible saber insect, they were moving at the same speed as one another.
Song Shuhang closed his eyes, his divine sense attaching itself to the treasured sabers.
❄️❄️❄️
Five kilometers away…
The Celestial aircraft found a mountain forest to stop at temporarily.
Their luck seemed to be off. After coming to this world from the Celestial Realm to hunt for Golden Core cultivators, they still hadn’t found any suitable prey even after searching for several days.
Now they were preparing to rest, recharge, and then meditate.
Just as they were about to stop the aircraft, a flame streaked across the sky in the distance and slashed towards them.
“Enemy attack!” shouted the Celestial in charge of keeping watch.
As soon as his voice fell, the flame had already turned into a flaming phoenix, slashing at the Celestial aircraft.
“Boom!!”
The Celestial aircraft was slashed.
The six Celestials inside were ejected at this critical moment thanks to the ‘safety ejection mechanism’.
Even so… the terrifying power of the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber left large and small wounds on their bodies. The inextinguishable phoenix flames wrapped around their wounds, continuously hurting the six Celestials.
After destroying the aircraft, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber did not stop its pursuit.
It continued floating in the air, spinning around happily.
From beginning to end, the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber had not exerted its true power. Otherwise, the six Celestials would absolutely be dead.
Its mission was only to destroy the Celestial aircraft and to keep watch in the air, so as to not let the six Celestials escape.
A Celestial flew out and shouted, “This is a cultivator’s saber controlling technique! A cultivator discovered us.”
However, they hadn’t even gotten the time to react when…
“Whoosh~”
The Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades arrived, with the blades slashing down fiercely. The twin blades separated, each locking onto a Celestial.
The two Celestials could only grit their teeth and rush to defend themselves.
However, they had been seriously injured by the Phoenix Saber just now, and their bodies were still enveloped in the inextinguishable phoenix flames. After two short breaths of resistance, they were still ultimately cut apart by the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades.
After that, the treasured saber Broken Tyrant came over.
It also locked onto a Celestial and slashed at it.
That Celestial had just stabilized its body.
It gritted its teeth and swung its sword to block the treasured saber Broken Tyrant.
However, the treasured saber Broken Tyrant was not alone. It was also followed by the invisible saber insect.
The invisible saber insect seized this opportunity to stab the other party.
