158: Section 158

“Since I already possess such an invincible bearing, I should follow in the footsteps of my predecessors, dominate the numerous Prodigies in the Sword Tournament of Various Sects in the Eastern Wang Dao Domain, and embark on the path of invincibility!”

He thought so, his eyes shining brightly.

Chapter 89: Nurturing the Sword, the Sword Tournament of Various Sects Begins, Setting Off for the Central Lands!

Several days had passed since Chu Mo comprehended the Sword Intent in the Sword Dismantling Pavilion.

However, the entire Taichu Holy Land, with its countless Disciples, was still eagerly discussing what had happened that day.

Quasi-Saint Child Chu Mo had activated the Sword Qi contained within the Sword Monument in the Sword Dismantling Pavilion, causing many Elders of the Sect and even the Sect Master to personally arrive and observe. Even Celestial Sword Forefather had emerged from seclusion and accepted the Quasi-Saint Child as his successor.

This was Celestial Sword Forefather!

The Celestial Sword Forefather who once dominated the Dao Domain for three thousand years with a single sword, hailed as an unrivalled force who swept through the Dao Domain, the one who made the Taichu Holy Land once again produce an Immortal!

He was the brilliant sun that countless Prodigies and powerhouses could never escape from!

He was also the benchmark in the hearts of countless Sword Cultivators!

Even after ten thousand years, countless ancient texts still recorded his deeds, making him well-known, and to this day, his prestige still resounds throughout the Eastern Wang Dao Domain.

Any mention of him would leave people in awe.

Such a powerful Sword Cultivator, however, crawled out of his coffin in the Forbidden Ground and accepted Chu Mo as his successor.

How could this not shock them?

Not only the Disciples and Elders of the Taichu Holy Land, but when the news spread, countless people throughout the entire Eastern Wang Dao Domain were shaken.

Especially those Sword Cultivators.

Without exception, upon hearing the news, they all felt envy and jealousy towards Chu Mo.

What an astonishing Opportunity and what immense fortune it was to be taught and guided in the Dao of the Sword by Senior Celestial Sword!

Of course.

Envy was envy.

They also understood in their hearts.

Chu Mo was able to receive guidance from Celestial Sword Forefather because of his innate talent.

But...

That's easy to say.

When they thought about it themselves, they still couldn't help but feel envious!

The external commotions did not disturb Chu Mo.

After Celestial Sword Forefather returned to the Forbidden Ground, Chu Mo had already returned to Taihua Peak to Cultivate in seclusion.

Although Stopping War Swordplay was already in his hands, and he had a thorough grasp of all its essence and Profound Truths, he still needed to ponder and Cultivate it himself to master it proficiently.

What's more.

The Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture had also just reached the sword-drawing stage of its second phase, which also needed to be experienced.

Only a few days remained until the Sword Tournament of Various Sects, and he needed to quickly convert these into his own strength and wield them as easily as his own limbs.

In the quiet room.

Chu Mo sat cross-legged, the Pure Yang Dao Sword placed on his knees. The Mixed Origin Dao Embryo within his body vibrated slightly, and waves of Daorhyme permeated the air, instantly bringing Chu Mo into a state of harmony with the Dao.

In this state.

His understanding of the sword-nurturing method of Stopping War Swordplay was rapidly deepening.

...

He didn't know how much time had passed.

A blazing, ineffable Sword Intent suddenly surged from Chu Mo's body.

The Sword Intent swept out with a roar, then transformed into countless, seemingly endless, fine sword threads, almost invisible to the naked eye.

These sword threads encircled Chu Mo's body, intertwining with each other.

But as time went on, they gradually diminished and thinned, like melting ice and snow.

This was not dissipation, of course.

Instead, all the Sword Intent had integrated into the Pure Yang Dao Sword.

Stopping War Swordplay nurtures itself with the Concept of killing. In normal times, it hides its edge in the scabbard, holding the sword to stop war, and when needed, it unleashes an earth-shattering sword strike.

As streaks of killing Sword Intent continuously merged into the sword.

This Pure Yang Dao Sword also became increasingly blazing, and faint sword cries echoed throughout the quiet room.

This indicated that the Pure Yang Dao Sword could no longer suppress its killing intent and desired to be unsheathed to slay enemies.

At this point, Chu Mo would soothe it, deeply concealing the Sword Intent and killing intent.

Time flew by.

Two days passed in a flash.

Chu Mo silently opened his eyes, which now appeared as calm as still water, without the slightest ripple.

This meant that Chu Mo had successfully nurtured his sword!

He had successfully integrated the killing aura into the Dao Sword.

As time passed, the killing intent of this Pure Yang Dao Sword would become increasingly blazing, and its Sword Intent would accumulate to an even more terrifying degree.

“Stopping War has been achieved, next is drawing the sword!”

The Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture.

It is divided into three stages.

Condensing the Sword, Drawing the Sword, and Slashing the Dao!

During the Condensing the Sword stage, one gathers the Sword Heart, condenses Sword Intent, and accumulates endless killing intent into a single point, forming a blazing killing sword.

And Drawing the Sword.

Is to draw out this killing sword.

Finally achieving true Slashing the Dao!

When Chu Mo returned to his Family and heard how overbearing Cangyuan Palace was, he used the supreme sacred aura contained within the Pure Yang Dao Sword, in addition to the sword-condensing method from the Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture, to unleash an earth-shattering sword strike that spanned tens of thousands of miles, annihilating the entire Cangyuan Palace.

And now.

He had achieved Major Achievement in Condensing the Sword and reached the Drawing the Sword stage.

This made the power of the Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture even greater; once unleashed, the power it erupted would be even more terrifying.

In the Drawing the Sword stage.

There is no need to Cultivate any sword techniques or moves.

In fact.

As the most supreme killing sword art, the Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture itself does not contain many sword techniques; it is purely a comprehension of Dao principles.

Just like Drawing the Sword.

It does not require actually drawing the sword from its scabbard; it is merely a method of tempering one's will.

Drawing the sword means drawing the sword, but comprehending one's true heart.

In the process of Drawing the Sword, one's mind becomes more focused, sharp as a sword, ultimately reaching a point where whatever their gaze falls upon, with a single flash of the sword's edge, it becomes unstoppable!

In such circumstances.

The more resolute one's mind and the more blazing one's will before Drawing the Sword, the greater its power will be.

And if one reaches Major Achievement in Drawing the Sword, with the enhancement of their spirit, they can even achieve a state where they are not bound by any form, everything can be used by them, and nothing can withstand them.

Just like Celestial Sword Forefather.

When he dominated the Eastern Wang Dao Domain ten thousand years ago, an external Dao Domain Sword Cultivator came to challenge him. At that time, Celestial Sword Forefather, annoyed, casually pointed his fingers like a sword and slashed.

That Sword Cultivator, whose cultivation had reached the Saint Lord Realm, was directly cut in half!

Even the flawless sacred weapon in his hand instantly broke.

And that Sword Qi still continued unabated, directly entering beyond the cosmos, destroying countless stars, before gradually dissipating.

Also, several millennia ago, the Cangyuan Sword Sect had an astonishingly talented Sword Cultivator. This person observed the Sword Dismantling Pavilion at the Taichu Holy Land's mountain gate for sixty years and eventually created a sword-drawing technique.

He drew his sword thirty thousand times daily, continuously for a thousand years without rest. Later, when he entered the True Yang Realm overseas, he happened to encounter an attack from a Saint Realm Yao Beast.

He unleashed the sword-drawing Concept accumulated over a thousand years, and astonishingly, from a thousand miles away, he transcended realms to suppress and kill this Saint Realm Yao Beast!

From then on.

This Sword Cultivator instantly became famous.

After he entered the Saint Realm, he was even respectfully called the Grand Saint of Sea Slashing, and his prestige resounded for a time.

And the sword-drawing technique created by the Grand Saint of Sea Slashing, compared to the Taichu Slashing Dao Scripture, was naturally much simpler and cruder, but it was still unparalleled in its killing power.
