Longevity Martial Arts: Starting from Inner Core Skill-Chapter 459 - 41 The World is Returning to Normal
Chapter 459 -41 The World is Returning to Normal
“The ‘Five Elements Sword Formation’ is a new Divine Skill.
As a Sword Formation Divine Skill, its primary feature is its lethal capability, and initially, Wang Sheng was only interested in its offensive power.
However, numerous modifications almost turned it into a versatile Sword Formation.
“As a sword formation, it even has healing effects, I’m not sure if that’s a good thing!”
The healing effect of the sword formation was not originally intended by Wang Sheng, but his array skills were still lacking; he had only achieved a Breakthrough once, so some things were unavoidable.
It’s still difficult to transform all the Five Elements into the ultimate offensive attributes within the same Sword Formation, and it can only be done to a certain extent.
Correspondingly, the Five Elements are still best at their respective skills related to the Five Internal Gods.
For example, the healing aspect of the Wood Element.

But Wang Sheng had no regrets.
“Having one or two-tenths of strength, for me, is already a lot!”
His current level of power, at one or two-tenths, is also extremely formidable.
If he had had these enhancements last time, the Hanhai Dragon King definitely wouldn’t have been able to injure him, and resolving the matter would have been much simpler.
Moreover—
“This is still just the newly-completed Five Elements Sword Formation!”
Currently, the Five Elements Sword Formation is only at level one, and although this level one has significant value, some martial skills after a Breakthrough might not even be this powerful.
But as far as progress goes, level one is still level one.
After upgrading, there will certainly be enhancements.
Even if the enhancement is slow, it’s enough for Wang Sheng to look forward to.
“How powerful will a level nine or even a Breakthrough Sword Formation be?”
Wang Sheng felt that although reaching the level of the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation might seem remote for now, it wasn’t impossible in the future.
Thinking of these things made him even more satisfied.
Not only that, but with the completion of the Sword Formation, there was also the Sword Transformation Technique.
The core of the ‘Five Elements Sword Formation’ naturally consists of five special flying swords nurtured by the Five Internal Gods, but as a sword formation, there couldn’t be only five flying swords.
This time, he also used the Sword Transformation Technique within the sword formation.
Once the Sword Formation is activated, the five different-element flying swords would transform into countless invisible flying swords, striking any enemies that enter.
It would also connect with the natural forces of heaven and earth to enhance the Sword Formation.
This was one of the main reasons for the enhancement of one to two-tenths in the Sword Formation’s power.
Each flying sword could connect with nature just like the main body could.
This effect was not there originally.
But—
“Sword Transformation Technique: Breakthrough+1 (10%)”
It was because of the Breakthrough that such favorable effects were possible.
After the breakthrough of the Sword Transformation Technique, its effect can more precisely simulate the flying sword itself; though not reaching 100 percent, the simulation is astonishingly close, and coupled with the Sword Transformation Technique’s ability to multiply swords endlessly, the amplification for the Sword Formation is tremendous.
“This time, the gain from the sword formation was greater than expected; Sword Formation proves to be a very good approach.”
Studying the Sword Formation, apart from enhancing strength, is crucial in discovering that the Sword Formation suits him better than mere Sword Dao Divine Skills.
For the Sword Formation already allows the Five Internal Gods to guard it as extensions of his will, inherently enabling him to perform any Sword Dao Divine Skill he knows at full capacity.
That is to say, the sword formation allows him to gain both strengthening and full execution of Sword Dao Divine Skills, without missing anything.
Just this point alone made it more attractive than the Sword Formation itself.
The path is forged by oneself, and the emergence of the Sword Formation has made it clear the path he desires.
With these thoughts, he dismissed the Sword Formation.
The Five Internal Gods and the flying swords all returned to his body.
“Going back!”
Now that the Sword Formation had been initially successful, what he needed to do was to enhance the level of the Sword Formation, pushing its power to a higher level.
“I’m not asking for much, a fifty percent boost would suffice… of course, if more is possible, that’s even better.”
Wang Sheng didn’t set his expectations in stone; he held high hopes for the Sword Formation.
He hoped that it could reach the level of the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation in the future.
As he made some gains and was returning, there was also good news from Datong.
“Have you found it?”
“Yes, Chief, this is the sample they brought back.” A person stood before Huangtian, presenting a stone.
This stone was identical to the one Long Lie took out last time.
Huangtian naturally wouldn’t judge merely by appearances; his spiritual power had already reached out.
After confirmation, his heart swelled with joy.
“There really are Energy Stones on land, just as Teacher said.”
The presence of Energy Stones on land, although not as abundant as in the ocean, would allow them non-restricted access, which greatly pleased him while also relieving his concern.
“Where was this found?”
“They were found both in the former Yan Emperor Dynasty and within Datong itself, and the output seems to be not low either.”
The person reporting might not know the stone’s ultimate use, but was very aware of the Chief’s emphasis and had thus investigated the details well in advance.
This type of ore had been discovered at several locations.
Upon hearing that several places contained it, Huangtian became even more delighted.
Immediately, he issued an order: “In places where this kind of ore is found, there must be at least three Grandmasters guarding them, and a Teleportation Array must be set up.”
No amount of attention was too much for a matter concerning the development of civilization.
“Yes, Chief, but having Grandmasters go to those areas, could it possibly be—”
Even in Datong, Grandmasters were absolutely crucial forces, and the energy discovery locations were all desolate places.
“First, send people there, I will quickly discuss the statute with the others.”
He never intended to keep Grandmasters stationed there forever. It was just because things had been rushed and he hadn’t anticipated the surprise coming so soon, coupled with having a lot on his plate, he had to make do for now since no arrangements about the ore had been made before its discovery.
“Alright, Chief.”
Soon, the person left to make the arrangements.
Huangtian paced for a long time, finally stood up, and stepped into a Teleportation Array.
…
When Huangtian arrived, Wang Sheng had just returned from the sea, just in time to meet.
“Sir, Datong has found the Energy Stones!”
Since the Teacher had instructed them to search for the Energy Stones, his first thought was to inform the Teacher of this good news.
“Have you found it…”
Upon hearing this statement, Wang Sheng was not surprised.
Yet, it was precisely because of this that his heart was full of thoughts.
His conjecture was correct once again.
Huangtian didn’t understand what this represented, but he did.
First, there was Zhu Xiao’s Breakthrough to Martial Saint, increasing his lifespan, then the complete emergence of a Spiritual Body.
And now, the Energy Stones, missing for thousands of years, reappeared in the form of ore veins, not just individual pieces.
All these events were hinting at something.
“The world is changing, ah!”
Wang Sheng looked towards where the First Dynasty’s Spirit World was located, now already in the Year 6 of the new calendar.
Six years, for ordinary people, were already a long time, and Datong had been actively pushing forward under the protection of strength.
The influence of the First Dynasty had been reduced to a certain extent.
The natural result was the weakening of the First Dynasty’s Spirit World.
Whether it was the matter of lifespan or the matter of Energy Stones, they all occurred after the weakening of the Spirit World.
“Rather than saying this world is changing, it’s more like the world is returning to its original form!”
