I Have A Disciple Simulator

Lu Changsheng had already possessed the Heaven Rank supreme sword technique “True Martial Nine Forms,” and now, a second one, “Tiangang Sword Formation.”

With the help of the system, Lu Changsheng could view the information of “Tiangang Sword Formation.”

[Tiangang Sword Formation: One of the ancient sword arrays, set up with thirty-six Flying Swords, the mightier the cultivator’s strength, and the higher the quality of the thirty-six Flying Swords, the stronger the power of the formation will be.]

This was a sword array cultivation technique, different from “True Martial Nine Forms.”

“True Martial Nine Forms” only required one Flying Sword to be used, whereas “Tiangang Sword Formation” is more like a sword array that a cultivator can set up, needing to control thirty-six Flying Swords simultaneously.

Theoretically, as a sword array, “Tiangang Sword Formation” should be more powerful and wider in range than “True Martial Nine Forms.”

But cultivating this sword array comes with a significant disadvantage—it requires too many Flying Sword treasures.

A full thirty-six Flying Swords!

Under normal circumstances, a sword cultivator only commonly uses one or two Flying Swords; who could produce thirty-six decent-grade Flying Sword treasures?

However…

Lu Changsheng could.

The Flying Sword treasures returned from mentorship were plentiful.

Lu Changsheng currently possessed five Innate Flying Sword treasures: the supreme Innate Treasure True Martial Sword, the mid-grade Innate Spirit Treasure Biluo Jiutian Sword, and the lower-grade Innate Spirit Treasures Phoenix Blood Sword, Shadowless Sword, and Nine Heavens Imperial Thunder Sword.

Five Innate Spirit Treasure Flying Swords, combined with thirty-one Acquired Spirit Treasure Flying Swords, already initially showcased the power of the Tiangang Sword Formation.

If he continued to reward disciples, sooner or later, he would accumulate thirty-six Innate Spirit Treasure Flying Swords and might even possess Immortal Artifact Flying Swords.

Lu Changsheng dared not imagine how terrifying a Tiangang Sword Formation made from thirty-six Innate Spirit Treasures Flying Swords would be.

What about an enhanced Tiangang Sword Formation formed by thirty-six Immortal Artifact-grade Flying Sword treasures?

Lu Changsheng realized the tremendous potential of the Heaven Rank supreme sword technique “Tiangang Sword Formation.”

This sword technique, which could be cultivated even in the Dao Palace Realm, potentially rivaled the might of an Immortal-rank martial technique.

After all, the power of “Tiangang Sword Formation” depends on the treasures constituting the sword array.

“Tiangang Sword Formation” consists of six layers; for each additional layer cultivated, six more Flying Swords can be manipulated, and the power of the sword array doubles.

Before beginning to cultivate the “Tiangang Sword Formation” today, Lu Changsheng still had two opportunities left to return favors to his disciples, which he did not waste.

[Ding, you have bestowed your disciple “Shen Xiaoyao” with the supreme Spiritual Artifact “Wind Chasing Sword,” and received a hundredfold return reward: a supreme Acquired Spirit Treasure “Gentle Finger Sword.”]

[Ding, you have bestowed your disciple “Shen Xiaoyao” with the mid-grade Spiritual Artifact “Mount Shu Disciple Daoist Robe,” and received a hundredfold return reward: a lower-grade Acquired Spirit Treasure “Mount Shu Elder Daoist Robe.”]

After gaining four mentoring return opportunities each day, Lu Changsheng once equipped a newly accepted disciple with cultivation techniques, sword techniques, and treasures in a single go.

Although the treasures returned for rewarding Foundation Establishment Realm disciples were not of high grade, these returned treasures could later be rewarded again.

“Lian, guide your junior brother well in his practice; your master is going to cultivate sword techniques now.”

Lu Changsheng intended to cultivate the “Tiangang Sword Formation” to acquire another method of attack.

The potential of “Tiangang Sword Formation” was not inferior to a lower- grade Immortal-rank martial technique. It could be cultivated in the Dao Palace Realm and perfectly matched Lu Changsheng’s abundance of treasures, leading him to suspect this Heaven Rank sword technique was tailor-made just for him.

While Mo Huazhi was cultivating within the Spirit Gathering Array in his cave dwelling, Lu Changsheng simply went to the summit of the colossal boulder at Qjngyun Peak to practice the sword technique.

Lu Changsheng took out six Acquired Spirit Treasure-grade Flying Swords to cultivate the first layer of “Tiangang Sword Formation.”

He divided his Divine Sense into six strands to control the six Flying Swords simultaneously; the six Flying Swords soared into the sky, positioning themselves at six distinct locations, forming the sword array.

Beads of sweat the size of soybeans appeared on Lu Changsheng’s forehead.

The difficulty of the “Tiangang Sword Formation” was greater than Lu Changsheng had imagined.

The first layer of the “Tiangang Sword Formation” required one to multitask with six purposes.

The second layer, multitask with twelve purposes.

And so on, to cultivate to the sixth layer, one needed to multitask with thirty- six purposes.

The “Tiangang Sword Formation” was different from the “True Martial Nine Forms”, as the former required the cultivator to manipulate the sword array with divided attention, while the latter required complete focus on a single sword.

“Change formation!”

Lu Changsheng strove to become accustomed to simultaneously controlling six flying swords.

Fortunately, Lu Changsheng possessed the Innate Taoist Body, which allowed him to learn any cultivation technique or martial skill at a comprehension speed ten times that of a normal cultivator.

The reason why the Innate Taoist Body was considered a peerless special physique, ranked even above the Eternal Wilderness Body, the Everlasting Verdant Body, the Spirit Sword Physique, and others, was precisely because it was close to the essence of the Great Dao, allowing for an extremely fast Path Comprehension speed.

In just one day, Lu Changsheng had comprehended the first layer of the sword array.

The next day, Lu Changsheng summoned his disciple for a fourth-time grant, this time giving away elixir pills and returning a batch of sixth and seventh rank elixirs.

After using up his daily times for teaching and returning, Lu Changsheng then continued to cultivate the “Tiangang Sword Formation”.

“Strange, how come my three disciples still haven’t made a breakthrough?”

Lu Changsheng murmured to himself.

Mo Huazhi’s breakthrough from the Golden Core Realm to the Nascent Soul Realm was taking too long, wasn’t it?

The Body of the Literary Sage seemed to be different from other special physiques.

Lu Changsheng only pondered for a moment and then immersed himself in cultivation again.

This time, Lu Changsheng took out twelve Acquired Spirit Treasure flying swords.

Manipulating twelve flying swords, as opposed to six, did not just double the difficulty; the challenge increased exponentially.

Lu Changsheng was engrossed in his cultivation technique, and the numerous flying swords, like streams of light, flew back and forth above Qjngyun Peak, stirring up wind and clouds.

Shen Xiaoyao watched his master’s entranced techniques with great envy.

When would he be able to attain the same level of cultivation as his master?

Lu Changsheng became fully absorbed in his cultivation, and in the blink of an eye, three days had passed; only then did he come back to his senses, having comprehended the second layer of the “Tiangang Sword Formation” and was now able to perfectly manipulate the sword array comprising twelve flying swords.

Lu Changsheng calculated, and the three days had unknowingly slipped by, yet Mo Huazhi was still in the midst of a breakthrough.

Lu Changsheng’s Divine Sense enveloped his cave dwelling, feeling Mo Huazhi’s aura slowly rising without any indication of deviation or mania, which gave him a bit of relief.

Thus, Lu Changsheng turned his attention back to his own cultivation.

Lu Changsheng attempted to cultivate the third layer of the “Tiangang Sword Formation”.

He took out eighteen flying swords and split his Divine Sense into eighteen strands to activate them, forming the Tiangang Sword Array.

However, just as the sword array formed, it collapsed, and the eighteen flying swords clattered as they fell.

Lu Changsheng shook his head, “With my cultivation at the ninth layer of the Dao Palace, comprehending the second layer of the Tiangang Sword Formation and simultaneously activating twelve flying swords is already the limit. It seems that I can only cultivate the third layer, or even the fourth or fifth layers of the Tiangang Sword Formation after I break through to the Void Refinement Realm.”

Lu Changsheng was not in a hurry, as the second layer of the Tiangang Sword Formation, with its twelve flying swords, was already enough to cause many formidable enemies to have a headache.

“Oh? My third disciple’s aura is rising sharply, it seems she is finally about to officially step into the Nascent Soul Realm.”

Lu Changsheng noticed Mo Huazhi’s aura suddenly soaring, a sign of the Nascent Soul coalescing.
