Sect Master's Immortal Journey

Chapter 88: Viewpoints

Forest Spring Watch is a cultivation force on the same level as Twin Success Valley, both being vassals of the Flying Swan Sect.

However, Forest Spring Watch's territory is much smaller than Twin Success Valley's, and its affiliated forces are not as numerous, mostly being mediocre. Within Forest Spring Watch, there are several outstanding families, and these families have a deep integration with Forest Spring Watch, making them completely inseparable.

The Lin family is one such family. Most of the remarkable cultivators in the family are disciples of Forest Spring Watch. In each generation of Foundation Building cultivators in Forest Spring Watch, one can generally see members of the Lin family.

Lin Shenpo's grandfather was a cultivator from the Lin family in Forest Spring Watch. Due to a falling-out with his family, he left and joined Forest Mountain School. Originally, he was just an ordinary and unremarkable cultivator in the Lin family. However, after joining Forest Mountain School, he began to rise. Not only did he climb up to a high position within Forest Mountain School, but he also left behind a large number of descendants.

In Lin Shenpo's generation, he successfully achieved Foundation Building, making him one of the true masters of Forest Mountain School.

As an affiliated force of Twin Success Valley, Forest Mountain School's close relationship with Forest Spring Watch is something that Twin Success Valley does not want to see. Now that Forest Mountain School has two Foundation Building cultivators, it is considered unique among the vassals of Twin Success Valley.

The higher-ups of Twin Success Valley are undoubtedly somewhat worried that Forest Mountain School, feeling an increase in power and having ties with Forest Spring Watch, may develop some inappropriate thoughts.

Of course, Forest Mountain School has not done anything yet, and even if Twin Success Valley is domineering, they cannot act rashly based solely on their concerns about the situation.

Therefore, this led to the appearance of Dan Yihu and Shan Ying.

Having existed for over three hundred years, Forest Mountain School only has two Foundation Building cultivators. On the other hand, Twin Success Valley, which boasts of having ten Foundation Building cultivators, can easily dispatch two Foundation Building cultivators.

Even Forest Spring Watch doesn't possess such strength.

All of these thoughts were just Meng Zhang's speculations, but he believed they were close to the truth.

On the elevated platform, with the arrival of Dan Yihu and Shan Ying, the Foundation Building cultivators of Golden Blade Sect and Qiaoshou Sect seemed visibly constrained.

After some superficial pleasantries, they slowly got back to the main topic.

The two Foundation Building cultivators from Twin Success Valley came to Forest Mountain School to engage them in a friendly competition and not to embarrass them.

"We have chatted here for quite some time, and the younger ones below might have grown impatient," Dan Yihu said with a big laugh. "Perhaps some daring souls are already cursing us old folks in their hearts."

"Let's have Lin Shenpo start the lecture now," he continued.

After speaking, Dan Yihu and Shan Ying took their seats on either side of the platform on casual cushions.

With Dan Yihu opening the way, the other Foundation Building cultivators also sat on the cushions, leaving Lin Shenpo standing alone in the middle of the platform.

Lin Shenpo didn't waste any time and sat cross-legged before directly starting the lecture.

For the Refining Qi cultivators below, having a Foundation Building cultivator giving a public lecture was a rare opportunity. Many of them might never encounter such an opportunity in their entire lives.

Naturally, Lin Shenpo's lecture didn't focus on his own insights and experiences of Foundation Building, as that knowledge was not something easily shared. Even among the Forest Mountain School disciples, only a few core members would be qualified to learn such things.

But to speak vaguely, using a lot of obscure and impractical information, would not be a good scene either. Forest Mountain School had sent out invitations, and everyone had come with great gifts to pay their respects. It would be quite petty not to share something useful.

Lin Shenpo wasn't a professional Sword Cultivator, but he had been passionate about swordsmanship from a young age. Though there was no dedicated Sword Cultivator sect in the Endless Sea of Sand, he had never lost his love for sword techniques. He had even almost delayed his Foundation Building due to his focus on sword skills.

For the first time since reaching Foundation Building, Lin Shenpo chose to give a public lecture, and he focused on the art of controlling swords.

Flying swords were the most popular magic tools in the Cultivation World. Whether it was a Refining Qi cultivator, a Foundation Building cultivator, or even a Gold Core Daoist Master, they all carried flying swords and were adept at sword techniques.

Almost all cultivators dreamed of flying freely in the sky, controlling their swords to traverse the world. However, the ability to fly on swords and control them required at least a Foundation Building Cultivation Base.

The flying swords most Refining Qi cultivators possessed were just common magic tools with little difference from other magic tools. Only a very few with exceptional talents could cultivate specialized sword techniques. Although they couldn't fly on swords, they could still use swords as powerful weapons in combat.

Those who were more focused on the path of swordsmanship were known as Sword Cultivators. With a sword in hand, they could shatter a thousand magic tools and myriad spells.

Lin Shenpo couldn't be considered a true Sword Cultivator, so he wouldn't reveal the true extent of Sword Cultivator's techniques. The unique sword techniques he had cultivated for many years would not be easily disclosed.

Thus, Lin Shenpo's lecture primarily covered the attention points when controlling a sword during combat, based on his years of battle experience. Occasionally, he would cite specific examples to illustrate how to respond in certain situations.

Though Lin Shenpo was a quiet and reserved cultivator, lacking smiles, when speaking about his beloved swordsmanship, his soul seemed to soar.

Furthermore, his teachings were full of practical knowledge, making them valuable to the cultivators present. As long as they weren't too dull, they would gain some insights after earnestly comprehending his words.

Meng Zhang, too, listened intently and nodded repeatedly, feeling that he had gained something from it.

A long time ago, Meng Zhang had shown extraordinary talent in swordsmanship. Even in the declining Taiyi Sect, where no sword techniques were passed down, he had managed to develop several assassination sword skills, which earned praise from Daoist Profound Spirit, the former sect master.

In the inheritances he obtained from the Trial Ground, there were several sword techniques. With the treasure he acquired, Meng Zhang spent considerable effort in practicing these sword techniques.

Learning a high-level sword technique meant that even an ordinary flying sword could exhibit tremendous power, let alone Meng Zhang's Soft Around The Finger, which was considered a small treasure among First Rank flying swords.

Meng Zhang's greatest regret was that he hadn't found a suitable sparring partner to showcase his sword skills. He had considered testing his swordsmanship against Deep Earth Spirit General a few times, but the general was always busy, and Meng Zhang didn't want to disturb him.

As for the other members of Taiyi Sect, to put it bluntly, none of them were even qualified to let Meng Zhang use his flying sword, let alone spar with him.
