I Can Replicate Martial Arts

The matter of the Viper King Venerable was over.

Yet its influence was far from over.

This major event changed everyone’s perception. From this day forward, the Martial Dao ascended to a divine pedestal—a truly *divine* pedestal.

The Martial Dao prowess displayed by the man and the beast far surpassed the common person’s understanding, transcending the very concept of a Martial Artist.

It was no exaggeration to call them "Immortal Gods."

With every move, they displayed world-shattering might, an absurdly large attack range, terrifying and invulnerable defenses, and elusive, lightning-fast speed—enough to give every major power sleepless nights.

Even with an army of a million mercenaries, one was like an ant before them, easily crushed with a single hand.

At the apex of the Martial Dao, I reign supreme!

From now on, Martial Artists were no longer swords in the hands of the powerful, no longer bound by worldly constraints.

Their strength was enough to change the entire status quo.

"Cultivation! Martial practice!"

The fire in the hearts of the common people was reignited. All those with a shred of talent now aimed their sights much, much higher.

The Grandmaster Realm was no longer considered remarkable. If one hadn’t reached the level of a True Dharma Master, how could they dare call themselves a Martial Dao expert?

It had been decades since martial arts became accessible to all.

This moment ignited all those sparks into a wildfire.

After a brief stop at the coast, Zhao Rui vanished.

He didn’t even meet with his two younger brothers.

His status was too sensitive now.

Emperor Zhao was not a name to be taken lightly.

’These bored netizens! Couldn’t they have come up with a cooler name?’

’Emperor Zhao... no matter how you say it, it sounds like you’re asking for a punch in the face.’

Zhao Rui grumbled to himself, then flew directly back to Qingcheng Mountain with Yun Hao in tow.

Accompanying them were Master Weiyang and other experts from the Qingcheng Sect.

"Junior Brother, if it’s all the same to you, I’d rather travel on my own!"

In mid-air, Yun Hao said awkwardly.

As the Qingcheng Sword Sect’s only other Sword Dao expert aside from Zhao Rui, Yun Hao’s progress was undeniably fast. But compared to his junior brother, his current strength was simply pathetic.

Zhao Rui couldn’t help but feel resigned. No matter how amazing a Cultivation Technique was, unless it was one of those Evil Demonic Skills, progress had to be made step by step.

’The Qingcheng Sword Sect still isn’t ready for the main stage!’

"Since we have nothing better to do, Senior Brother, quiet your mind and focus. I will transmit the art of the Sword Qi Rainbow Transformation to you."

"You don’t have to..."

Before Yun Hao could refuse, Zhao Rui had already used Secret Transmission to impart the secrets and insights of the Sword Qi Rainbow Transformation to him.

Upon receiving it, Yun Hao quickly closed his eyes and sank into contemplation, working to comprehend the profound principles Zhao Rui had transmitted.

Why do people strive to become disciples of prestigious sects?

Because prestigious sects have renowned masters, and renowned masters have already walked the path. They can answer your questions, resolve your doubts, and help you avoid the pitfalls they once faced.

A single insight might take you half a year or more to grasp on your own. But with a renowned master, a small pointer is enough to let you surpass others’ years of hard work.

The group flew on, crossing towering mountains and wide rivers, and soon arrived at Qingcheng Mountain.

Flying over the peak of Qingcheng Mountain, Zhao Rui led the group to slowly descend, landing on a Martial Arts Arena at the summit.

At this time, several hundred disciples from the Qingcheng Sect and the Qingcheng Sword Sect were standing there, craning their necks in anticipation, their faces filled with excitement and expectation as they awaited his arrival.

The Martial Arts Emperor!

’He’s actually from the Qingcheng Sect!’

They all stood a little straighter at the thought.

As Zhao Rui’s figure appeared, everyone’s gaze snapped towards him. The worship and excitement swirling in their eyes were so thick they seemed ready to overflow.

"Greetings, Emperor Zhao!"

"Greetings, Emperor Zhao!"

The unified chant of several hundred people, infused with their powerful Inner Strength, made the very mountain tremble.

Zhao Rui, who had been descending gracefully with a smile, felt his face twitch.

The True Dharma Masters behind him were even more baffled.

’Should we be getting out of the way?’

Zhao Rui quickly waved his right hand, and an invisible Domain Power instantly enveloped the entire Martial Arts Arena.

It isolated the area from all outside observation.

"What’s all this nonsense?"

Zhao Rui was a little baffled. ’His own sect, pulling this kind of flashy, pointless stunt.’

"The disciples insisted."

Sect Leader Weichen glanced at Sect Leader Yu beside him, stroking his beard as he chuckled.

’Yeah, right.’

Zhao Rui shook his head, at a loss for words. He released his grip on his senior brother, Yun Hao, and looked out at the disciples. "What outsiders say doesn’t matter," he declared, his voice ringing out. "What’s important is that our own Dao Hearts remain unshaken."

"The path of the Martial Dao is the pursuit of its apex, the sublimation of body and spirit, the joy of repeated metamorphosis. It is not about becoming complacent or blindingly arrogant."

"The world is full of Martial Dao experts. Before this, had any of you ever seen a Spirit Communication-level Exotic Beast like the Viper King Venerable?"

"Nothing should be done to excess. You must always remain cautious."

"Of course, humility is a form of self-discipline, but you must not lose your martial edge. It is a balance that you must all carefully contemplate in your cultivation!"

Zhao Rui used this opportunity to teach the disciples a lesson.

In the past, as an Elder of the Qingcheng Sword Sect, his words might not have carried much weight.

But now, his words were sobering truths that no one dared to ignore.

"We humbly accept the Elder’s teachings!"

The several hundred disciples roared their assent, their momentum immense and their spirits high.

As disciples of Emperor Zhao, how could they not be fired up?

Even Yun Hao, who was standing to the side, unconsciously followed suit and bowed.

On the Martial Dao path, the accomplished lead the way!

Today, he had seen Zhao Rui use the Thunderbolt Swordsmanship, and gained even more insights into the Thunder Sword Dao.

The unyielding spirit in his heart burned even more fiercely.

"You are all dismissed!"
