****************¶¶*******************
Within the cave, Arthur sat cross-legged, as he wondered, 'I have another martial spirit now?'
Arthur didn't know what exactly happened, all he knew was that the book floating above him, with a multicolored ring around it came from within his soul.
Arthur inspected the book and saw that it was made entirely of gold and the cover was filled with writings he had never seen before.
Just as he was wondering what this all meant, he felt a tremble in his mind, and it was one that he had felt before.
'Again?'
At the same he felt his mind tremble, the book martial spirit above him, flew to float directly in front of him and opened its first page.
Arthur saw words, like a title appear on the first page.
|[Nine Heavens Universal Scripture]|
Upon seeing that title, Arthur became sure that this book was definitely from the Nine Heavens Palace.
As those words appeared on the page, they simultaneously appeared in his mind, and then something magical happened.
*vroom*
Two sets of writings were drawn out of Arthur's mind, causing them to appear physically on the page of the Golden Book.
Those writings were the techniques that Arthur had received from his parents.
~|[Divine Scripture of the Chaos Dragon]|
~|[Eternal Life Divine Scripture]|
As they appeared on the page, Arthur was shocked to see the words of both techniques begin to edit themselves and fuse as one whole technique.
At the same time, their effects became nine times greater than before. And not just that, they also became one with the |[Nine Heavens Universal Scripture]|.
And just like that, Arthur now has a completely new technique in his mind.
He was glad everything worked out well in the end and happy that he had the Nine Heavens Palace, which was one of the best, if not the best treasure in the entire world.
Now armed with what is probably one of the greatest heaven-defying cultivation techniques in the world, Arthur was more optimistic about his growth.
"Nine heavens universal scripture..." Arthur reviewed how to cultivate the technique, and found out that it was hard for him to understand the contents of the technique.
He meditated and focused on comprehending it. And while he was doing so, the book martial spirit enveloped him in an invisible aura, which sped up his comprehension greatly.
After a while...
"I get it, so that's how it is..."
"....this is just too overpowered."
'And I like it!'
The next cultivation realm Arthur needed to break through to was called the Spirit Condensation Realm, which is a realm where the gaseous state spirit power is refined and condensed into drops.
It had a total of ten stages and a drop of spirit energy is condensed in each stage to make a total of ten drops when a person reaches the peak.

After that, the next realm is called the Gold Core Realm, where all ten drops of spirit energy are fused together to form a golden core in the dantian, giving the practitioner more robust energy.
The Nine Heavens Universal Scripture was different.
It had another name for the Spirit Condensation Realm...
The Heavenly Condensation Realm.
In this realm, rather than condense a drop of spirit energy at every stage, Arthur would condense ten drops of spirit energy instead.
Making a total of a hundred drops of condensed spirit energy when he reaches the peak of that realm.
After that, he would fuse them to form ten gold cores, in the Gold Core Realm.
Which is the Nine Heavens Universal Scripture was called the Invincible Gold Core Realm!
In this realm, even in the first stage of the realm, no one in the same cultivation realm would be able to defeat him.
Arthur was already shocked at this, but it did not end there, the cultivation technique also had high requirements for cultivating it, just like the two techniques from his parents.
"I have to comprehend intent?"
Comprehending intent was the first step to take in comprehending the Dao. Everyone would attempt to comprehend intent at the Gold Core Realm. At that point, their minds and spirit are more in tune with the world, but even then very few succeed.
But Arthur had to comprehend them now, and there were a total of ten intents that he had to comprehend.
'This is going to be hard...' Arthur thought, and then he smiled.
"But I wouldn't have it any other way," he said with a grin.
He already planned to comprehend intent earlier, and this just gave him the reason to. And besides, because his soul clones had comprehended all 999,999 paths of the Dao, he would comprehend it at a crazy rate. Even though he didn't have their memories, their soul still had that understanding.
And he would be able to draw upon that understanding and connection that his soul had with the paths of the Dao, as he comprehends them.
Because the Nine Heavens Universal Scripture was guiding him, it had teachings of the intents he needed to comprehend. Only, he just had to understand what is written.
Arthur took a deep breath and began to cultivate it immediately.
"The first step... Fire intent..."
What Arthur didn't know at that time was that as he cultivated the technique, it also began to make subtle changes to his physique.
**********
Two months later...
Arthur and the rest had reached their destination.
"So this is Heaven Sword City," Helia looked around with interest.
"This place is bustling with experts," Kaiser said.
"Indeed, this is my first time seeing so many powerful cultivators. The aura here is intense!" Luke seemed more excited than anyone else.
Only Arthur smiled and kept quiet.
During these two months, he had reached the third stage of the Heavenly Condensation Realm and condensed over twenty drops of liquid spirit energy.
But what was more surprising was that beyond his expectations what he condensed instead of the regular spirit energy, was elemental spirit essence.
