Longevity: Start From The Entry Of Luck

Chapter 8: Terrifying Power, Astonishing Old Ma!

In front of the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.

As soon as Old Ma saw Jiang Yuan, his face lit up with joy. "Young Master, you're amazing! Gu Mo's talent in swordsmanship is indeed as terrifying as you said!"

"Oh, how terrifying is it?"

"Just before you arrived, Gu Mo had already comprehended the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique completely. In just half a day, he surpassed the lifelong learning of our former master. It's simply unbelievable!"

Old Ma was full of astonishment.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuan smiled, completely unconcerned.

Just now, he personally experienced the power of the blue Innate Luck, so he naturally understood that the purple Innate Luck above it would be even more terrifying.

Now, no matter how Gu Mo performed, he considered it to be natural.

At this moment, Gu Mo, in the distance, still had his eyes closed.

Suddenly, his whole person seemed like a unsheathed sword, emitting an extremely sharp and powerful aura.

"Young Master, what is he doing?" Old Ma exclaimed in surprise.

"I suspect Gu Mo is comprehending the sword's momentum!"

"Sword's momentum? That's... impossible!" Old Ma widened his eyes. "Isn't comprehending the sword's momentum something only legendary immortals are qualified to do? If we ordinary people can comprehend the sword's momentum, we will surely transcend the mundane and become immortals. Gu Mo is only at the seventh level of Body Tempering, the level of blood exchange. How could he possibly comprehend the sword's momentum?"

Faced with Old Ma's doubts, Jiang Yuan smiled and remained silent.

Gu Mo not only possessed the purple-level Innate Luck of a sword god, but also a green-level Innate Luck, with a naturally powerful spiritual force.

[Spiritually Gifted]: Those born with a spiritual soul have outstanding five senses and a powerful spiritual force.

With his strong talent in swordsmanship and powerful spiritual force, it was not impossible for him to comprehend the sword's momentum in advance. In fact, it would be unreasonable if he couldn't comprehend it.

The two of them stood there for a long time.

Gu Mo slowly opened his eyes.

In an instant, it seemed as if there was a flash of sword light in his eyes, exceptionally bright.

Jiang Yuan walked over. "How do you feel?"

Gu Mo, who hadn't smiled for a long time, suddenly showed a smile on his face. "Very good! Excellent! Thanks to the guidance of the Young Master, I now truly know who I am!"

Gu Mo's eyes were bright, full of spirit and confidence.

At the same time, Old Ma approached, his face full of envy. "Gu Mo, did you really comprehend the sword's momentum?"

Gu Mo nodded, then shook his head. "I still lack a bit, but after a few days of settling down, I will have the confidence to condense my own sword's momentum."

Upon hearing this, Old Ma was shocked and speechless. "It's actually... just as the Young Master said."

Then he looked at Jiang Yuan with admiration. "Young Master, you are truly a divine being!"

Gu Mo also looked at Jiang Yuan with respect. "Young Master, the favor you have shown me today is as great as giving me a new life. I, Gu Mo, will never forget it."

Jiang Yuan smiled and changed the topic. "After refining the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique, has your progress in blood exchange improved?"

Gu Mo shook his head. "There hasn't been much change in that aspect, but my strength has improved significantly compared to before."

He held the giant sword in his hand and said, "Young Master, I feel that the sword's momentum I am about to comprehend is not suitable for heavy swords. It is more suitable for lighter swords. The Wind and Thunder Sword Technique has two true meanings, wind and thunder. I have a deeper understanding of the wind aspect."

"Then I will send someone to make a new long sword for you tomorrow."

"Thank you, Young Master!"

Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, his mind already deep in thought.

All the changes in Gu Mo were within his expectations, but the lack of significant progress in blood exchange was somewhat unexpected.

Subconsciously, he opened Gu Mo's panel and took a look.

[Name]: Gu Mo

[Realm]: Body Tempering, Seventh Level

[Innate Luck]: Sword God's Talent (Purple), Divine Soul Formation (Green), Proficiency in Knife Techniques (White)

Then his gaze once again focused on Sword God's Talent.

[Sword God's Talent]: Exceptionally outstanding talent in swordsmanship, can be called a god among mortals, able to progress rapidly in all sword techniques.

After carefully reading its description, Jiang Yuan suddenly had a realization.

Perhaps his talent does not lie in Body Tempering.

Even if his talent in swordsmanship is high, the efficiency of cultivation in the Body Tempering realm is limited, not as exaggerated as Zhao Li's performance.

In the realm of Body Tempering, in terms of tempering the physical body, the speed may not be as powerful as his previous extraordinary green-level physique.

Each Innate Luck focuses on different aspects, and the effects may be completely different.

Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan instantly gained some new understanding.

Then, Jiang Yuan said, "Gu Mo, how much has your strength improved compared to before?"

Gu Mo pondered for a moment and said, "Before, I could only rank in the middle and lower levels of the Seventh Level of Body Tempering. Now, I have the confidence to be invincible in Lin'an County at the same level. Even if I face the existence of the Eighth Level of Nurturing Spirit, I am not afraid."

He added, "In a few more days, when the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique improves further, my strength will also increase. If I successfully comprehend the sword's momentum, I have the confidence to fight against the Ninth Level of Body Tempering."

Old Ma beside him couldn't help but exclaim, "This is so exaggerated! You can actually fight beyond your realm? Compared to the Seventh Level of Body Tempering, the Eighth Level is more than twice as powerful. The strong ones even have a strength close to ten thousand jin. The internal energy is also several times stronger. Are you not afraid?"

Gu Mo nodded, "Not afraid!"

Jiang Yuan said, "That's enough! Tomorrow, the two of us will leave the city together to collect my father's remains at the place where he died and erect a tombstone for him."

"No, absolutely not!" Old Ma quickly advised, "Only by keeping the death a secret can we have a chance to catch our breath. According to Gu Mo, his strength will improve even more in a while, and then we will have the power to protect ourselves."

"If the news of our former employer's death is confirmed, even with the protection of the county lord, we will still face a crisis."

He paused and continued, "The most crucial thing is that before the Thunder War, the young master was set up by the young master. If he gets the news in the city, he will definitely be furious and come looking for the young master. With only Gu Mo, even a fierce tiger cannot withstand a pack of wolves."

Jiang Yuan shook his head, "As a son, how can I let my father's body be exposed in the wilderness!"

Then he said, "Moreover, who said it's only up to Gu Mo alone."

After speaking, Jiang Yuan lightly placed his right palm on Old Ma's shoulder and exerted a little force.

Boom!

The stone slab under Old Ma's feet instantly shattered, and the ground sank slightly.

His face turned red, and he seemed to be on the verge of kneeling down.

Jiang Yuan immediately released the force in his hand.

"How is it?"

Old Ma gasped for breath, his face full of disbelief.

"How is this possible! When did the young master become so powerful! With just one hand, you made me unable to catch my breath! This kind of strength! It's a bit inhuman! What level has the young master reached now?"

"Sixth Level, Marrow Tempering," Jiang Yuan said, "What do you think of my current strength?"

After pondering for a moment, Old Ma said, "If we don't consider combat experience, the force you just displayed is enough to dominate at the same level. Compared to the Seventh Level of Body Tempering, you are not weaker at all, and even slightly stronger."

Jiang Yuan smiled but did not comment.

Just now, he only used three layers of force to suppress Old Ma, a master of the Sixth Level of Body Tempering, with one hand.

Now it seems that he can definitely fight against a master of the Seventh Level.

He is not only terrifying in terms of strength, but the strength of his entire body far exceeds that of an ordinary person.

When integrated as a whole, it is not as simple as one plus one equals two.

Jiang Yuan said, "Gu Mo and I are almost equivalent to a master of the Eighth Level and a master of the Seventh Level. It's not a problem to leave the city."

Old Ma nodded in agreement, "We will follow your arrangements, young master."

Gu Mo also said, "We will follow your orders, young master."

Jiang Yuan nodded, "That's settled then. We will set off early tomorrow morning."

Then he thought to himself, "We share the same name and surname, and have the same appearance. There must be a connection that I don't know about."

In this way, he can also understand some cause and effect.
