Ling Tian Sword God Chapter 112 - 111: Martial Arts True Meaning Picture1

Upon walking into the Spirit Martial Hall, all the disciples remained completely silent, with no chatter or interaction. With only one hour, everyone cherished it deeply, not wanting to waste even a single breath.

In the Spirit Martial Hall, all that t the eye were bookshelves and walls adorned with an array of scrolls. On these scrolls were landscapes, movent diagrams, or calligraphies, each emitting a unique aura.

These scrolls all contained profound insights. Simply looking at the surface would not reveal their true essence, leaving one unable to grasp their full aning.

"These are all relics left by the Divine Intent Sect’s ancestors. Each of these scrolls is a priceless treasure. Every scroll contains a trace of Martial Arts True aning. It depends on whether you have the capability to comprehend it."

Noticing the confused expressions on the faces of the six disciples, Elder Xie Chan explained it to them.

Each scroll contained Martial Arts True aning left behind by a Top Sky Apex Strong. By studying these True aning scrolls, not only could one enhance their ntal Power, but also their Martial Realm. It was even possible to comprehend the esoteric masteries left by a Top Sky Apex Strong, though this possibility was small.

Normally, the Spirit Martial Hall remained closed. Only when it was opened were these Martial Arts True aning Pictures displayed. That these pictures had been preserved to this day was entirely due to the Martial Will of a Top Sky Apex Strong imbued within the scrolls, granting them immortality. Once this trace of Martial Will dissipated, the Martial Arts True aning Pictures would turn to dust.

Thus, the Spirit Martial Hall was not opened very often each year—three or four tis at most. This was all done to prolong the lifespan of the Martial Arts True aning Pictures. The more frequently the Spirit Martial Hall was opened, the shorter their lifespan would beco.

"This picture was left by the infamous Blood Sword King!"

Suddenly, a shocked exclamation ca from Yun Tianhe, who was not far away. In front of him was a blood-red scroll, depicting a battlefield scene piled high with corpses and flowing with rivers of blood. At the center of the battlefield, a swordsman in blood-stained clothes strode with a sword in hand, killing a person every ten steps.

Blood Sword King.

He was a renowned swordsman in the history of the Five Kingdoms’ Martial World, one who pursued speed and slaughter throughout his life. Even the Sword Intent he mastered was slaughter-attribute. He had killed more than a thousand martial artists.

Of course, Ling Chen had heard of the Blood Sword King. This man was not an ancestor of the Divine Intent Sect, yet his Martial Arts True aning Picture was still in the Spirit Martial Hall.

"The Blood Sword King had connections with a Sect Leader of our Divine Intent Sect. He once had a friendly martial arts exchange with that predecessor Sect Leader, after which he left this picture behind. It was then collected by that Sect Leader and placed here in our Spirit Martial Hall," Elder Xie Chan continued to explain. "Aside from those left by our Divine Intent Sect’s predecessors, many of the Martial Arts True aning Pictures here were left by other renowned experts who, like the Blood Sword King, had so connection, whether amicable or adversarial, with our Divine Intent Sect. Their Martial Arts Realms were extrely powerful."

"Perfect! The Sword Way of the Blood Sword King is a natural fit for mine. This Martial Arts True aning Picture will surely help reach a higher level!"

Yun Tianhe sat cross-legged before the Blood Sword King’s Martial Arts True aning Picture, beginning to comprehend its true aning.

Xiao Muyu and Gu Lingfeng also found spots and sat cross-legged. Xiao Muyu found a picture titled ’Pear Blossoms in Flying Snow,’ left by a Top Sky Apex Strong known as Snow Princess. Gu Lingfeng found the ’Mind Annihilation Picture,’ left by an expert nad Heart Slayer King. Both quickly began their comprehension.

As for Xiahou Lin and Li Liuxing, they also found Martial Arts True aning Pictures that appealed to them and imdiately sat down to begin their cultivation, wasting no ti.

Ling Chen walked around, not choosing in a hurry. The Spirit Martial Hall contained hundreds of Martial Arts True aning Pictures, but with only enough ti in the day to comprehend one, it was crucial to choose wisely. Wasting this opportunity would an waiting until the following year.

"Ling Chen, your ntal strength level is very high. You can go deeper into the hall where more powerful Martial Arts True aning Pictures are located. Those whose ntal Power hasn’t reached a certain level would feel dizzy and suffer neural damage just by glancing at them. However, since your ntal Power has reached level eight and you have comprehended the Sword Intent Embryo, you should be fine."

Just as Ling Chen was preparing to search carefully for a picture, Elder Xie Chan’s voice suddenly reached him.

"Thank you for the information, Elder."

Ling Chen’s gaze shifted towards the depths of the Spirit Martial Hall. There were far fewer Martial Arts True aning Pictures there, but the aura they emitted was particularly unique and mysterious.

Ling Chen arrived at the deepest part of the Spirit Martial Hall. Before him, eight Martial Arts True aning Pictures were displayed. Ling Chen’s gaze swept across these eight scrolls, eventually resting on a landscape painting.

This landscape painting appeared ordinary on the surface, yet it subtly concealed a fierce, sharp undercurrent.

Ling Chen glanced at the red seal in the bottom right corner of the Landscape True aning Picture. Within the seal, the four characters for ’Sword Hider Elder’ were clearly inscribed.

Sword Hider Elder?

Ling Chen paused for a mont, then shook his head. I’ve never heard of the na ’Sword Hider Elder’ before.

He must have been an extrely ancient figure.

Ling Chen sat down before the Landscape True aning Picture, cald his mind, and focused his gaze intently on the scroll.

Depicted in the scroll was a steep mountain with a solitary peak piercing the clouds. Beside the peak flowed a river, where an old man was fishing by the bank. The artistic conception of the serene fishing scene was a stark contrast to the piercing sharpness of the solitary peak, creating a dynamic and undulating feel.

At a glance, nothing could be discerned.

The Martial Arts True aning left behind by a Top Sky Apex Strong is indeed not so easy to comprehend.

Ling Chen inwardly shook his head. This scroll is truly difficult to understand.

He sat there for most of the day.

The one-day ti limit for being in the Spirit Martial Hall was about to expire; only half an hour remained.

Yun Tianhe, Xiao Muyu, and the others had already erged one by one from their imrsive comprehension of the pictures. Satisfied expressions adorned their faces, clearly indicating they had all gained sothing, more or less, from these Martial Arts True aning Pictures.

Xiao Muyu’s gaze fell upon the figure in the inner depths of the Spirit Martial Hall. Ling Chen was sitting there, perfectly still. His eyes were heavily bloodshot with dark circles underneath, and he didn’t look to be in good condition. Hmm, why is he still sitting there? she wondered.

Yun Tianhe also noticed Ling Chen, and a sneer imdiately touched his lips. "Haha, what an overambitious fool! He should have known that the deeper one goes into the Spirit Martial Hall, the more profound the artistic conception of the Martial Arts True aning Pictures becos, and thus the harder they are to comprehend. Looking at his state, it’s clear he’s unable to grasp the insights within that picture but is too stubborn to give up. That’s why he looks so wretched."

"He’s run out of ti," Elder Xie Chan also walked over, looking at Ling Chen with a hint of regret. Her feelings were complex; she was beginning to wonder if allowing Ling Chen into this deepest area had been a mistake.

At this mont, Ling Chen heard none of this. His entire concentration was fixed on the Landscape True aning Picture before him.

Am I really going to leave empty-handed?

It would be a lie to say Ling Chen wasn’t anxious, but he knew anxiety was useless. When it ca to comprehension, the more anxious one beca, the more counterproductive it was.

But after staring at the picture for nearly an entire day, Ling Chen’s eyes were tired to the extre.

Just as he was about to look away from the Landscape True aning Picture, the entire landscape painting seed to ripple for an instant.

After this ripple, the entire Landscape True aning Picture began to take on a blurry outline, which then grew increasingly clear in Ling Chen’s vision.

It’s actually the character for ’sword’!

Ling Chen finally saw clearly what the landscape painting depicted. And in that very instant, his vision went black as a terrifying wave of artistic conception washed over him, engulfing his entire being.
