Chapter 41: Change In Your Next Life

As Su Zhan's voice echoed, the main square, which had been filled with noise due to Qi Yang's defeat and the discussion about the origin of Su Zhan's sword technique, instantly fell silent. All the elders widened their eyes, doubting if they had misheard.

Chen Changfeng's mouth twitched. He thought that Su Zhan would surely make a name for himself this time. But who would have thought that this guy didn't just reach the pinnacle of the Flowing Fire Sword Technique but actually created a sword technique that was more than ten times stronger than the Flowing Fire Sword Technique! Damn it, only you, Su Zhan, could pull off such insanity!

Qin Jincheng was stunned for a moment and incredulously asked, "Are you saying that this Firestar Sword Technique is your own creation?"

"Yes," Su Zhan nodded. There was no need to hide such a thing, and besides, it wouldn't be possible to keep it a secret anyway.

After all, Qin Jincheng was one of the top powerhouses in the Xia Country. He might not see it at first glance, but upon careful consideration, the shadow of the Flowing Fire Sword Technique could be discerned.

Upon hearing Su Zhan's admission, the elders gasped in shock and were extremely amazed.

"A self-created sword technique!"

"If I remember correctly, Su Zhan has only been in the sect for less than a month and has already reached the level of creating his own sword technique!"

"A self-created sword technique is nothing impressive. Even the Sect Master created a sword technique when he was in the Martial Lord realm, but the sword technique he created was only at the Ordinary Rank. Su Zhan's created sword technique, on the other hand"

"Cough, cough!" Qin Jincheng cleared his throat and gave a stern look to the elder who compared him to Su Zhan. "Comparing me, an old man, to that freak Su Zhan? Are you trying to indirectly insult me or something?"

Instantly, the elder shrunk his neck, realizing he had misspoken, and quickly shut up. The other elders all chuckled. Clearly, it was the first time they had seen Qin Jincheng in such an awkward situation.

"Su Zhan," Qin Jincheng said, revealing a slight smile. He suppressed his excitement and maintained the demeanor befitting a Sect Master. "How did you create this sword technique? Firestar Sword Technique Could it be that you had some fortuitous encounter when you came into contact with the star fragment in the Azure Mountain Range? Did you receive guidance from a master and, after this period of cultivation, create this sword technique?"

"No," Su Zhan shook his head. "I created this sword technique three days ago while cultivating the Flowing Fire Sword Technique in the Artifact Refining Valley. I gained some insights into the power of the stars and created this sword technique."

"The Artifact Refining Valley?" The elders who had witnessed Su Zhan's breakthrough to the Martial Martial realm immediately caught on.

Qin Jincheng was shocked. "Are you saying that in the Artifact Refining Valley, instead of comprehending the Flowing Fire Sword Technique, you were comprehending a new sword technique?"

"Yes!" Su Zhan looked somewhat surprised. "Flowing Fire Sword Technique is so simple. Why would I need so much time to comprehend it?"

The disciples, deacons, and elders who practiced this sword technique on the square felt a sense of frustration in their hearts when they heard Su Zhan's words. The sword technique they had practiced for years, even decades, had turned into something "so simple" in Su Zhan's words?

Many of them felt disgruntled, but unfortunately, they couldn't refute Su Zhan. After all, he had created the Firestar Sword Technique, which was stronger than the Flowing Fire Sword Technique. It was hard to find a point of argument when he said that the Flowing Fire Sword Technique was simple.

For Su Zhan, it was indeed simple!

Resentful gazes were cast toward Su Zhan, including from Qin Jincheng. Never would they have expected it! Su Zhan was actually comprehending a new sword technique in the Artifact Refining Valley. If they took that as the starting point, it meant that Su Zhan had created a new sword technique within just two days, and its power was likely even stronger than the Heavenly Cloud Sword Art.

This kind of talent in swordsmanship

Qin Jincheng thought about all of this and felt an urge to vomit blood. Back in the day, he, Qin Jincheng, was also a top talent in the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect with exceptional talent in swordsmanship. But now, compared to Su Zhan, he was nothing.

"Sect Master, Sect Master?" Seeing Qin Jincheng lost in thought, Su Zhan called out to him twice.

"It's nothing, I'm just a bit tired." Qin Jincheng snapped back to reality, glanced at Su Zhan, who looked puzzled, and suddenly felt a great sense of frustration when he realized that Su Zhan was still only sixteen years old. We're all humans, so why is the gap between us so vast? Letting out a deep sigh, Qin Jincheng got up and left. If he stayed any longer, he feared he would be driven to depression and vomit blood by Su Zhan's presence!

Seeing Qin Jincheng's demeanor, Su Zhan was a bit bewildered. He looked at Chen Changfeng and asked, "Elder Chen, what's wrong with the Sect Master?"

Chen Changfeng looked at Qin Jincheng's figure and sighed. "Sect Master, perhaps he's reminded of his lost youth and wants to go back and reminisce"

"Huh?" Su Zhan looked puzzled. Lost youth? What's that about?

Chen Changfeng didn't explain and changed the topic, asking, "Su Zhan, when you comprehended the Firestar Sword Technique, did you encounter many difficulties? How did you solve them?"

The study of swordsmanship was universal, and the sword technique Su Zhan created was even stronger than the one he practiced. The problems he encountered might provide insights into the various difficulties encountered in his own swordsmanship practice.

However, as the esteemed Grand Elder, it wouldn't be appropriate for me to directly seek advice, so I have to approach it indirectly. Chen Changfeng secretly thought to himself, eagerly anticipating Su Zhan's response.

"Difficulties?"

Su Zhan pondered for a moment. "I think the biggest difficulty in comprehending sword techniques lies in the lengthy amount of time required. Take this time, for example, it caused me to go without eating, drinking, or bathing for two days. I only managed to get a brief rest, and it had a tremendous impact on my mental state."

Chen Changfeng: "???"

Is that what I asked? Besides, you created such a powerful sword technique in just two days, and you think it took too long? Can a person really say that? Chen Changfeng felt frustrated in his heart and said, "Su Zhan, what I asked was about the aspects of swordsmanship."

"Aspects of swordsmanship" Su Zhan looked puzzled. "Creating a sword technique is nothing more than accumulating, increasing, and perfecting the insights gained. It just takes a bit more time. As for difficulties, are there really any difficulties?"

After listening to Su Zhan's words, Chen Changfeng was dumbfounded for two seconds, then suddenly stood up. "Su Zhan, I have something to attend to. I'll take my leave!"

Watching Chen Changfeng clutch his chest and fly away on his sword, Su Zhan looked bewildered and turned to the other elders. "What's wrong with Elder Chen?"

The other elders chuckled in their hearts. Don't you have any idea what's going on with Senior Brother Chen? I haven't heard a single coherent sentence from you today, you little brat! It's so frustrating!

With Chen Changfeng and Qin Jincheng gone, Su Zhan turned his gaze to Qi Yang, who was still alive under the stone pillar. He walked over and upon closer inspection, he found that Qi Yang was not completely dead. Although his breath was extremely weak, there was still a glimmer of life.

"Don't don't kill me. I know I was wrong" Sensing that Su Zhan was nearby, Qi Yang's feeble and terrified voice sounded.

After being defeated by Su Zhan with a single sword strike and hearing the conversation between Su Zhan, Qin Jincheng, and the others just now, he had completely collapsed mentally. He had lost all courage to challenge Su Zhan again.

In Qi Yang's heart at this moment, there was only remorse.

He didn't know what was wrong with his head for voluntarily provoking a freak like Su Zhan. Isn't that just asking for death???

Recalling the horror of Su Zhan's sword strike, Qi Yang's body trembled, and his voice quivered, "Junior Brother Su, no, Senior Brother Su, please spare me! I truly know I was wrong. I will change, I will definitely change"

"Good."

Upon hearing this word, Qi Yang felt a glimmer of hope. However, as Su Zhan uttered the next sentence, a chilling feeling instantly arose in his heart.

"In the next life, change for the better."
