Chapter 690: Chapter 578: Spirit Eater Advancement Chapter 690: Chapter 578: Spirit Eater Advancement “Funiu Sword Pavilion’s heritage has been long-standing, and its foundation and comprehensive strength are much greater than ours. Although we are not exactly rivals, they indeed have no obligation to help us.”
“And this weapon is the key to convincing them; we must bring back the Spirit Skill.”
“Yatagarasu Akiryu’s malevolent energy is too intense, and Kensumi’s identity is special. You are the most suitable one to go. However, during Sword Master Cold Crow’s rise, it was inevitable that some people’s interests were affected.”
“Some of them are now attached to Funiu Sword Pavilion. When you go there, you will inevitably encounter many obstacles…”
“What does the teacher mean?”
“That was his exact word; he wants you not to worry too much,” Michihiro Morita revealed a helpless smile.
“But I don’t think so.”
“I think you need to be patient for a while. As long as we can obtain the Spirit Skill, we will be one step closer to our goal.”
Roger didn’t utter a word, but after pondering for a moment, he nodded his head.
Michihiro Morita handed the weapon to Roger, emphasizing repeatedly not to break the external seal, and shared some information related to Funiu Sword Pavilion.
After force-feeding Roger a large amount of information, Michihiro Morita hurried off.
Securing the Sword of Destiny, Roger, carrying two other weapons, returned to his own room. He knocked on Higurashi Chika’s door and gifted her the Crow Feather.
Though Higurashi Chika didn’t say much, the blush on her cheeks made it clear she was quite pleased with the weapon Roger gave her.
Closing the door and finding himself alone, Roger felt a stir in his heart and appeared in Shadow Cottage with the weapons in hand.
He took the short sword given to him by Michihiro Morita to the Forging Room, where after a scan, Hunter’s Cabin provided a hint.
Life-bearing Sword: This is a peculiar life form with the shape of a weapon, created by a special method.
Method Analysis in Progress…
Information missing, failed.
Roger carefully examined the weapon in hand, knowing the secret was sealed within, yet even with the power of Hunter’s Cabin, he couldn’t access the information inside without breaking the seal.
Having learned the details of the mission, Roger didn’t set off immediately. Three months, thirty-three swordsmanship heritages–if he wished, he could further refine the Alder Sword Seal.
Yet Roger chose not to do so.
The three months of learning made him realize that he had been on the wrong path all along.
The High Mountain Trial, the final part of the Three Great Trials, proved to be far more challenging than Roger had imagined.
Only now did he understand that if he merely learned a few sword techniques by rote and combined them with a Dharma Seal, he might never be able to complete the High Mountain Trial.
The High Mountain Trial was not just a challenge for Roger; it was also a crucial step for the birth of new heritage within the Demon Hunter Fraction in this world.
In his memory, in that world which could be called a game, the power of Demon Hunters was not considered very strong; after all, they were a product of Alchemy.
Even though they could cast spells quickly, they were no match for true Magicians and magic creatures.
However, here, the power of Hunter’s Cabin combined organically with the world’s rules, reviving a profession that could be ended by a mere pitchfork.
Roger didn’t yet understand the principle behind this, but he believed the insistence on the integration of Dharma Seal and swordsmanship in the High Mountain Trial must have its reasons.
Considering the conditions for the emergence of the Quinn Sword Seal, which were just the most basic sword techniques, Roger saw them as too crude given his current experience.
The later Alder Sword Seal had a high starting point, yet when compared to the sword path mentioned by Sword Master Cold Crow, it fell far short.
The teachings of Sword Master Cold Crow made Roger realize that the Sword Seal consolidated in the true High Mountain Trial was not a simple burst of power or so-called killing moves and Secret Techniques.
It was supposed to represent an idea, a concept that harmonized the Dharma Seal, swordsmanship, and Fraction Heritage.
With this realization, Roger knew he had to slow down.
Reflecting on everything he had experienced since arriving in this world, his power growth and insights at many stages were forcibly pushed through with the power of Hunter’s Cabin.
Roger speculated that if he now collected various Fraction Heritages, studied and understood them, then merged them with Dharma Seal, he could quickly extrapolate what was called the Igni Sword Seal or the Axis Sword Seal.
But what would be the significance of doing so?
He might, because of his own greed and impatience, limit the ultimate potential of the entire Demon Hunter Fraction Heritage.
He was no longer the transmigrator who struggled day by day in the Transcendent World.
“I built my own Demon Hunter training base, Kaer Morhen, which is both a sentiment and a remembrance of the past,” Roger sighed.
If he could choose again, if he knew how things would unfold, he would definitely slow down, make steady progress, and only advance after thoroughly understanding the power of the current stage.
He had been too impatient in the past.
Roger couldn’t even imagine what it would be like if he hadn’t come to this particular place called Sunrise, but had stayed in the West without the heritage of bloodlines and systems, trying to grow a Demon Hunter team.
Once he thought through this issue, Roger decided to follow the guidance of Sword Master Cold Crow, eager to see the end of this path.
The Alder Dharma Seal’s offensive attributes, combined with the Nekomata Guardian Spirit and the sword path mentioned by Sword Master Cold Crow, merged into one.
