Chapter 98: Chapter 79: Five Luminaries Celestial Rainbow Skill

V1: Basic Member.

V2: Official Member or Important Client.

V3: Elite Tier or Future Pillar.

V4: Core Tier. Not only do they receive massive discounts on purchases, but more importantly, they unlock access to the most central cultivation resources.

V5: Apex Force. The basic requirement is to be a Flying Star Level powerhouse! The Hall Masters of the various local branches of the Fire Hall, as well as some of the core management at headquarters, are usually at this level.

There might be even more mysterious tiers above V5, but that was something Li Wen could not yet know.

The higher the rank, the more convenient and cost-effective it was to operate within the Fire Hall system, and the greater the access to precious items that could truly propel one’s realm to the next level.

”DING-DONG~” A clear doorbell chimed.

Outside the door was the same meal delivery robot he had seen before. It silently handed Li Wen a well-insulated alloy meal box.

When he opened the box, a rich aroma wafted out. It contained a generous, well-balanced portion of expertly cooked Demon Beast meat and high-energy Spirit Plants, far exceeding a normal person’s appetite and brimming with potent energy.

After enjoying the more-than-worth-it lunch and resting for a moment, Li Wen felt the food in his stomach transform into a warm current of energy. He then lay back down in the virtual pod.

This time, his objective was clear. Without a shred of hesitation, the moment his consciousness entered the initial space, he stepped through the dark, swirling vortex that emanated the ancient aura of scrolls—the Cultivation Technique Inheritance World.

The tranquil and peaceful atmosphere of the world of scrolls enveloped Li Wen once again.

He walked straight to the Saber Skills category in the [Technique Inheritance Zone].

A dazzling array of information on saber skills once again filled his mind.

He was no longer satisfied with the detailed explanations of basic saber forms. His sole objective on this trip was to find a powerful, advanced saber skill to follow his Rainbow Light Saber Skill.

A peerless technique that could guide him directly to the realm of Blade Intent, and even to a more distant future.

Why did the nation and the four major powers compete to sign geniuses like him so early?

The reason was self-evident. The courses and resources available in high school could, at most, build a solid foundation and guide a person to the Unity Realm.

The truly powerful legacies that led to higher realms—such as secret Cultivation Techniques that pointed directly toward an Intent Realm or even higher levels—were simply unavailable in school.

This was determined by the scarcity of resources and the confidentiality of High Tier knowledge.

If a genius stagnated during their three years of high school due to a lack of follow-up Cultivation Techniques, it would undoubtedly be a tremendous loss.

Signing them meant bringing these high-potential assets into the system early. By granting them a huge amount of core cultivation points as start-up capital, they could immediately exchange them for the most suitable Cultivation Technique.

This allowed their potential to be fully unleashed even before entering a martial arts university or joining society, preventing it from going to waste.

With his mind made up, Li Wen immediately used the tablet’s search function to set his filter criteria:

Saber Skill Category

Suitable as a follow-up to the Rainbow Light Saber Skill (System compatibility is a priority)

Leads directly to Blade Intent, with room for future growth

Affordable price range, mainly concerned with whether the first volume is purchasable

A filtered list formed from converging light unfolded before his eyes, revealing several highly compatible options.

The name at the very top, along with its description, instantly captured Li Wen’s attention:

Five Luminaries Celestial Rainbow Skill:

First Volume: Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie Chapter - Exchange Cost: 5,000,000 core cultivation points

Middle Volume: Dawn Rainbow Chapter - Exchange Cost: 50,000,000 core cultivation points (Requirement: Minor Achievement in an Intent Realm)

Final Volume: Profound Dome Rainbow Silence Chapter - Exchange Cost: 500,000,000 core cultivation points (Requirement: Soul Realm)

Cultivation Technique Description: This is the essential Chapter of the ancient technique, the Five Luminaries Celestial Rainbow Skill.

The first volume uses the Rainbow Light Saber Skill as its foundation. One must visualize the transformations in the flow of a celestial rainbow, turning light into a blade and refining one’s intent within the heart.

Upon reaching mastery, one can transform the illusory into the real amidst the flow of blade light, preliminarily condensing the seed of Blade Intent. The blade will strike like a startled magpie piercing the clouds—swift and traceless.

This skill serves as a bridge, its core concept being to nurture Blade Intent through the five changes of the rainbow’s light. It is not confined to the surface-level phenomena of light and shadow, but points directly to the Intent Realm of light’s fundamental sharpness and rapid transformation.

Those with a foundation in the Rainbow Light Saber Skill at the Unity Realm will find their progress doubled with half the effort.

The middle volume requires one to have condensed their Blade Intent, then draw upon the Five Luminaries Star Power to temper intent and refine the soul. The Blade Intent can then transform into seven-colored flowing light, its power multiplied.

The final volume delves into the ultimate state of the rainbow’s light and the path of silent annihilation and reincarnation...

Looking at the five-million-point price tag for the Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie Chapter, and then at the sixty million points in his account, Li Wen didn’t hesitate for a second.

This was the choice that best matched his foundation, clearly led to Blade Intent, and possessed immense potential.

”Confirm exchange for Five Luminaries Celestial Rainbow Skill: Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie Chapter.”

As the thought formed, five million core cultivation points were instantly deducted from his account balance.

A seven-colored, illusory jade slip, like condensed rainbow light, slowly materialized before him. It then transformed into a stream of light and entered Li Wen’s consciousness.

Almost simultaneously, the space around him shifted.

He was transported to a pure white, extremely spacious virtual Martial Arts Room.

There was nothing else here, save for a figure standing silently in the center.

It was a middle-aged man with ancient-looking features and an aura as solid as a mountain. He wore a simple, dark-colored martial arts uniform.

In his hand, he held a dark gold, archaic-style wooden saber.

Although he was merely a virtual image, the moment his eyes, deep as ancient pools, slowly opened and looked at Li Wen, an invisible pressure, originating from a higher realm of skill, washed over him. It made Li Wen’s breath catch in his throat, as if he were facing not data, but an unfathomable Grandmaster of the Martial Dao of the saber!

”Practitioner, focus your spirit,” the middle-aged man’s voice was calm, yet it carried an undeniable weight.

As soon as he finished speaking, the unremarkable wooden saber in his hand slowly rose.

The movement seemed incredibly slow, yet it felt as if it contained the fundamental principles of the universe. The instant the blade’s edge reached the height of his brow—

HUMMM! The entire space seemed to ignite.

An intensely brilliant, seven-colored radiance erupted from the body of the saber.

This wasn’t the fleeting rainbow shadow from the Rainbow Light Saber Skill. It was a tangible, condensed blade light, imbued with the terrifying sharpness of will.

The blade light interwove, collided, and flowed through the air. At times, it was like a startled swan goose, appearing in a flash to stab into the void, leaving behind seven-colored trails.

At others, it was like a long rainbow arching across the sky, crashing down from dozens of meters away with a concussive blast of light.

Then, it would split into seven streams of light, each a different color but all equally sharp and peerless. They moved like seven living light-sparrows, dancing nimbly with unpredictable, cunning trajectories that still secretly conformed to the rhythm of the heavens.

”Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie—its intent lies in change, its power in the extreme! Intent arises from the heart and condenses light on the blade. It’s not about the speed of the form, but that in the instant between intent and thought, the rainbow light is already there!”

The man explained in a deep voice as he demonstrated.

Every one of his words, combined with the astonishing saber rainbow, was seared deep into Li Wen’s mind and soul.

”Observe the illusory and profound nature of the rainbows in the sky, but more importantly, comprehend the sharpness that breaks through clouds, pierces mist, and tears the heavens asunder. This is the foundation of Blade Intent...”

Li Wen’s eyes widened, his heart surged with emotion, and he was shocked beyond words.

’So... this is a saber skill of the Blade Realm.’

’It’s no longer just about using physical strength and technique to move the blade’s edge. It’s about using one’s own will as the core to command the blade’s light.’

That seven-colored saber rainbow—condensed as if tangible, ever-changing, and filled with immense destructive power—completely overturned his understanding of the saber.

This was no longer just a weapon skill; it was stepping over the threshold where technique approached the Dao itself.

Compared to the Blade Realm demonstrated by the virtual instructor, the rainbow lights produced by the perfected Rainbow Light Saber Skill were indeed just a prelude.

Amidst this extreme astonishment and longing, another image involuntarily surfaced in Li Wen’s mind.

It was from New Year’s Eve, the pure white blade light that Ling Feng had unleashed when he slew the invading Demon Beast—a strike that had nearly torn space itself.

That blade light was condensed to the absolute limit, as if it had shattered the boundaries of space, compressing the sharp edge of ”Intent” into an indestructible line.

At the time, he had only found it terrifying and incomprehensible. Now, having personally witnessed the Blade Realm’s Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie and comparing it to Ling Feng’s strike...

’Ling Feng’s strike... it didn’t have such dazzling transformations. It was purer, more condensed... That power... Could it be that he has already reached the higher Blade Soul Realm?’ The thought exploded in Li Wen’s mind like a clap of thunder.

An unprecedented sense of urgency and an even greater motivation erupted from the bottom of his heart like a volcano.

He had only just exchanged for a Cultivation Technique that led the way to Blade Intent, yet Ling Feng, the Blade Demon who was only a fourth-year university student, was already far ahead.

The virtual instructor’s demonstration of Blade Intent gave him unparalleled guidance, while Ling Feng’s existence ignited an unyielding, blazing fighting spirit within him.

The sharpness in his eyes intensified. He quickly focused his mind, his burning gaze locked on the virtual figure.

”The first volume of the Five Luminaries Celestial Rainbow Skill: Flowing Rainbow Shocking Magpie Chapter, is divided into Five Forms.”

The virtual instructor’s voice, deep and resonant like an ancient bell, echoed through the empty Martial Arts Room. The dark gold wooden saber in his hand flowed with a condensed, seven-colored halo—no longer mere energy radiance, but an external manifestation of the will’s sharp edge.

”These Five Forms are not simple moves. They are the compressed and condensed essence of a myriad of rainbow saber techniques. Each form is multifaceted, with its own profound focus.

Thoroughly mastering any single form means you have truly crossed the threshold into the Realm of Force! When all Five Forms are perfected and united, Blade Intent will manifest on its own!”

The wooden saber slowly rose, and space itself seemed to pulse in rhythm with it.

As he explained, solid, seven-colored rainbow trails that refused to dissipate interwove in the air, outlining the profound and indescribable trajectory of a Star Map:

[Flowing Rainbow Form One: Heaven-Dropping Form]:

The saber light suddenly unfurled, not like a chop, but like a colossal, seven-colored waterfall crashing down from the nine heavens! The saber’s force was majestic, covering an enormous area.

The seven-colored radiance surged and flowed within it, pulling and repelling, waxing and waning. Within its seemingly gentle appearance hid layers upon layers of a soft, grinding, and annihilating power.

This form emphasizes ”Force” and ”Domain.” It is not a brute-force sweep, but rather uses the flowing characteristics of the rainbow light itself to construct a fatal domain filled with whirlpools and gravitational forces. It traps the enemy inside, making it impossible for them to move a single step or escape. (Focus: Area Control/Annihilation)

[Flowing Rainbow Form Two: Guan Yue Form]:

The saber’s path abruptly converged! All the surging, seven-colored radiance condensed in an instant onto a single point at the saber’s tip, transforming into a spiral, seven-colored rainbow needle as thin as a strand of hair and condensed to the absolute limit.
