Comprehension Ability: I Come From the Great Emperor Family

"Celestial Tier Secret Skill!"

Seeing the tumultuous phenomenon of heaven and earth, the leader of the bandits couldn’t help but show an expression of astonishment.

The secret skills of the world are divided into four tiers: Heaven, Earth, Dark, and Yellow.

The standard for differentiating secret skills is simple: the strength of the skill’s intent!

Yellow-tier secret skills can attach their intent to weapons, amplifying power.

Dark-tier secret skills can reveal their intent to the outside world initially, their power quite impressive.

By the time it reaches the Earth-tier, the intent can affect heaven and earth, with faint phenomena emerging.

Once it ascends to the Celestial Tier, it resonates with heaven and earth, the phenomena grand and the power surging tremendously!

Like the Surprising Wave Sword Technique Su Changqing just used, the sword resonates with heaven and earth, converting streams into seas; this is evidently a Celestial Tier Secret Skill!

The bandits never expected that the ordinary mortal they were robbing would actually possess a Celestial Tier Secret Skill!

"Great Completion Intent!"

Uncle Fu’s eyes widened as he gazed at Su Changqing in front of him.

Yet, his focus was different from that of the bandit; he was more concerned with the swordsmanship’s great completion intent!

Celestial Tier secret skills are not easy to cultivate. Often, even those with decent talent can spend their whole lives without reaching such a level.

But the real issue is, Su Changqing is still a mere mortal!

Someone who hasn’t cultivated, yet refined a Celestial Tier Secret Skill to great completion? What a joke!

"That shouldn’t be the case, but the Celestial Tier Secret Skills include a Heart Technique, so it should also be possible to cultivate..."

Just as he was pondering this, Uncle Fu’s gaze trembled involuntarily, looking at Su Changqing ahead.

He remembered Su Changqing saying that the Sword Technique was incomplete, possessing swordsmanship without the Heart Technique.

"So that means..."

Uncle Fu murmured to himself incredulously,

"This Su Family Young Master refined a Celestial Tier Secret Skill to great completion merely with incomplete swordsmanship using an ordinary mortal’s body?"

"Hiss..."

Understanding this, Uncle Fu’s gaze on Su Changqing changed instantly.

If before he harbored some reluctance about becoming Su Changqing’s Guardian, merely considering Su Nan’s face,

now, Su Changqing had completely earned his recognition purely based on his own talent!

No matter how long Su Changqing had practiced that Sword Technique, even if he started in childhood to achieve his current accomplishment, he could be called a genius!

...

For a moment, the atmosphere in the scene fell into a slight silence, when suddenly an excited laugh erupted.

"Heaven’s blessing!"

"A Celestial Tier Secret Skill, it’s actually a Celestial Tier Secret Skill! And in the hands of a mere mortal, is this a pie falling from the sky?"

The bandit leader looked at Su Changqing with fervent eyes, exclaiming excitedly:

"Kid, you are practically a lucky star sent by the heavens!"

The great completion intent of the Celestial Tier is very strong, but how much power can an ordinary mortal without cultivation exert?

He didn’t believe his own one-tier cultivation power couldn’t surpass a mere mortal!

"Short-sighted."

Uncle Fu secretly curled his lips upon hearing this.

The bandit simply didn’t understand how powerful the great completion intent of the Celestial Tier really was.

Though Su Changqing currently possessed no cultivation, merely that phenomenon resonating with heaven and earth could eliminate these stray bandits.

However, Su Changqing himself was unaware of this.

It was his first life-and-death struggle, and he was extremely tense at this moment.

So, upon hearing the bandit leader’s words, he gritted his teeth and revealed his trump card.

"Seal, come forth!"

Su Changqing stroked his brow with two fingers, and a sparkling wave-like seal emerged into the world.

Upon its appearance, the seal directly fell into the wooden sword.

Instantly, that ordinary-looking wooden sword emitted an eerie blue light.

With a casual swing, the now incredibly sharp wooden sword produced a sound reminiscent of roaring waves!

"Lifebound Secret Skill?"

Uncle Fu’s eyes widened, his lips trembling.

The bandits ahead were even more dumbfounded, staring blankly at the eerie blue wooden sword.

Yet Su Changqing was still uneasy, gritting his teeth secretly, stroking his brow again, softly chanting,

"Come forth once more!"

Whoosh!

A radiant silver-white seal, dazzling like a star, appeared and in an instant merged into the wooden sword.

Buzz!

The wooden sword emitted a piercing sword cry.

With the integration of the starry sword seal, the previously blue sword body split into two, one half blue, one half silver-white, casting brilliant light in all directions.

"Holy crap!"

At this moment, Uncle Fu couldn’t hold back anymore, rubbed his eyes repeatedly, looking at Su Changqing’s wooden sword in disbelief.

"Another Lifebound Secret Skill?"

"Judging by this stance, it’s even higher in level than the previous Surprise Wave Secret Skill? Mid-tier Celestial?"

"What in the world! Is he still a mortal?"

Uncle Fu was utterly dumbfounded, staring with mouth agape at Su Changqing.

Having roamed the continent for a lifetime, he had never seen such an absurd thing.

A mere mortal holds two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier?!

Forget being a mortal, even a four-tier sword cultivator at Su Changqing’s age, could they master two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier?

And most importantly!

Su Changqing’s sword formulas were incomplete!

Using the body of a mortal to refine two incomplete Celestial Tier secret skills to the level of lifebound secret skills, this...

"What kind of monster has Su Domain Master cultivated!"

"I... I actually have the fortune to be the Guardian of such a monster!"

From initial disdain, to mid-term fondness, to later astonishment.

Up until now, he even felt honored to the extreme.

It’s only been less than a day, and his perception of Su Changqing has been refreshed time and time again!

Meanwhile.

At a loss, the bandits were completely bewildered.

Getting a pie from the sky is good, but when the pie is too big, it can also be deadly!

He understood now, even with his lack of insight, that he had hit a hard wall.

Two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier rendered him unable to imagine who the opponent might be.

All he wanted now was to flee swiftly!

"Hero..."

The bandit had just opened his mouth when Su Changqing raised his sword, his face solemn, saying:

"I have only this one strike. If you withstand it, then it means I’m destined to have this calamity!"

Upon hearing this, the bandit almost cried.

This was too damn optimistic.

If surviving meant he could live? Faced with this strike, would he use his life to withstand it?

A stray cultivator of one-tier cultivation dared die under the assault of two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier?

In his heart filled with terror, Su Changqing’s sword suddenly fell.

"Slash!"

Phenomenon appeared in the heavens and earth, illusionary yet real waves obscured the sky.

Astros shimmered in the sky, abundant starlight poured down, transforming into splendid sword radiance, merging with the ocean waves.

Boom!

A violent blast sounded, and the strike, merging two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier, directly exploded the remaining bandits on the spot.

Where they had just stood, a deep pit filled with flashing sword light was clearly visible.

Naught.

Under that powerful strike, the bandits couldn’t even attempt to run.

And Su Changqing, having unleashed that final sword strike, felt the wooden sword dissipate like dust, a sense of weakness surging within him.

But he paid no mind to any of this; at the moment the last bandit died, he immediately covered his mouth, ran to a nearby tree, bent over, and vomited profusely.

The bloody aura at his nose, the limbs flying about on the official road, all of this made his stomach churn.

"This..."

Uncle Fu watched Su Changqing vomiting endlessly, his mouth twitching.

A genius wielding two lifebound secret skills of the Celestial Tier, yet vomited uncontrollably after merely killing some bandits?

This world had suddenly become inscrutable to him.

Uncle Fu steadied his mind, went over to Su Changqing, patting his back to aid him,

"Young Master, were you previously a sword cultivator?"

Uncle Fu’s tone had unconsciously switched to respectful language.

"Ugh... no, the sword technique is a hobby."

Su Changqing didn’t lift his head, speaking amidst his retching,

"I...ugh, I used to be a scholar."

Uncle Fu was stunned again upon hearing this.

Holding two Celestial Tier Lifebound Sword Seals, this was merely a hobby?

The main profession was a scholar...

What caliber of books had Su Changqing been reading?
