Chapter 483: Chapter 338: Five Elements Sword Sha (Thanks to elephantZYL’s Silver Alliance)_2
Chen Mobai had some reservations about participating in the upcoming offline exchange and discussion meeting. It seemed rather unfair for the other students at the Daoist Academy.
In his current realm, it seemed that only Lan Haitian could match him in battle.
“By the way, Professor Zuo, although I can generate Sword Light, what if I encounter an opponent who has been cultivating Sword Demons? How should I react when my Sword Light transforms?”
But soon, Chen Mobai realized a blind spot.
The Sword Light was powerful, no doubt. But to dominate the Foundation Building Realm, he had to cultivate Sword Demons.
“There’s no other way then. The downside of the ‘One Sword Creates Thousands of Techniques’ is that after the Sword Light transforms, it can’t cultivate Sword Demons. That’s because once the energy of Earthly Destruction is integrated into the Sword Light, it can’t maintain its pure state without any attributes anymore. In other words, once you move forward, you can’t return.”
Zuo Gong helplessly shrugged. Unlike the gradual progression of the ‘One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Laws’, the ‘One Sword Creates Thousands of Techniques’ had too few practitioners, resulting in insufficient experience and examples.
Therefore, there are several crucial transition realms missing between the Sword Light Transformation and the harboring of the Primordial Spirit.
After all this, he realized that there was no way forward after “Sword Light Transformation”.
No wonder the Immortal Gate forbade cultivators in the Foundation Building Realm and below from practicing the ‘One Sword Creates Thousands of Techniques’. It was indeed a waste of time, leading disciples astray.
“How did the White Light Ancestor succeed then?”
Chen Mobai thought of the successful example mentioned by Zuo Gong. If someone could achieve it, there had to be a path to follow.
“The White Light Ancestor left behind two phrases: ‘Sword Meaning Formation’ and ‘Clear Heart of Sword’.”
“However, in the thousand years of our Sword Dao Association’s existence, only a handful of people could comprehend both realms.”
“Nangong Xuanyu is probably the closest one. When he fought with Master Qing Ping, he controlled the Primordial Yang Sword Evil with his Pure Yang Sword Intent, and briefly exhibited a power that was on par with a Nascent Soul cultivator.”
“Besides him, Hao Cao from the Mountain and Sea Educational Palace, Cai Yu, the president of the Sword Dao Association, and Gongsun Jielu from the Orthodox Law Hall of the Immortal Gate have all made significant progress on the path of the ‘One Sword Creates Thousands of Techniques’.”
When Zuo Gong mentioned these four people, there was a look of deep admiration on his face. Sword cultivators were prideful people, but these four seemed to have earned his genuine respect.
“My Sword Destruction Collection was compiled with their help. The original intention was to make up for the vulnerability of being easily targeted if only one type of Sword Demon was cultivated. Unfortunately, although the theory is complete, it’s practically impossible for ordinary sword cultivators to master it.”
When Chen Mobai heard Zuo Gong mention this, he recalled the Sword Destruction Collection that Zuo Gong had given him.
Indeed, if one could cultivate over a dozen different types of Sword Demons, they would naturally not fear being targeted.
However, to achieve this, they would first need to cultivate the corresponding Sword Light.
For example, if one wanted to cultivate the Two Rites Sword Devil, they would have to practice the Primordial Yang Sword Secret until they achieved the Primordial Yang Sword Light, and then practice another cultivation technique that could balance out the Primordial Yang Sword Light.
Only after both Sword Lights have been cultivated, they would have to hire an Earth Master to artificially combine the energies of the two Earthly Destructions.
The amount of human, physical, and mental resources consumed in the process would exhaust even a Golden Core cultivator.
“All four of them have achieved Sword Light Transformation and can transform the Sword Light into myriad forms, eliminating the initial step of cultivating different Sword Lights in my Sword Destruction Collection. They only need to condense the desired Earthly Destruction Qi.”
“Although the Sword Light can’t be retracted after the Destruction Qi is condensed, the power of the Sword Demon Formation greatly enhances their combat abilities.”
“However, artificially creating the Destruction Qi is also complicated. As far as I know, Gongsun Jielu used the resources of the Immortal Gate to master one type of Sword Demon Formation. Nangong Xuanyu should have also mastered the Two Rites Sword Evil, since he already had the Primordial Yang Sword Evil, and only needed to condense another.”
After listening to Zuo Gong’s words, Chen Mobai stood there in shock.
The realm of Sword Light Transformation had been bestowed upon him during his Empowerment, and he also had plenty of Earthly Destruction Qi at his disposal. The four pieces of Rank-2 Earthly Destruction Crystals seemed to perfectly complement his Fire Element Green Flames Sword Evil to form the Five Elements Sword Evil!
Upon reflection, it seemed like a feasible plan.
“Professor Zuo, when cultivating your Sword Destruction Collection, are there any precautions I need to take?”
Chen Mobai cautiously asked. Upon hearing his question, Zuo Gong glared at him, got up in displeasure, pointed at Chen Mobai, and began a stern lecture.
“That’s a lofty ambition, can someone like you, a mere Foundation Building sword cultivator, even comprehend my Sword Destruction Collection!”
“Not to talk about how many Good Deed Points are required for artificial synthesis of Earthly Destruction Qi, the time cost alone of honing different Sword Lights while refining the Five Elements’ essence is beyond your capacity.”
“Don’t assume just because you’ve broken through a realm every year that your cultivation speed is incredible. Even if you want to learn the Sword Destruction Collection, you should wait until you’ve reached perfection in the Foundation Establishment and can’t progress any further…”
After Zuo Gong spits out the words flying, giving Chen Mobai a thorough lecture, he finally gets the satisfaction he’s been craving since this lad skipped grades and forced him to personally send him off at his graduation from The Sword Control Department.
Just when Zuo Gong finishes his lecture and plans to leave with a contented heart, he sees Chen Mobai stretching out his left hand.
What’s he doing?
Confused, Zuo Gong initially thinks that Chen Mobai has poor psychological endurance. He can’t handle his words and wants to clench his fist to bear it. Then he sees a wisp of purple flame Sword Light rising from Chen Mobai’s thumb.
Zuo Gong is, of course, aware of the Purple Fire Sword Light that had swept Little Red Sky.
Having not seen it for two years, it seems to have become more proficient. This boy’s talent in Sword Dao is truly monstrous.
But Zuo Gong is even more confused by Chen Mobai’s actions. He’s a Golden Core sword cultivator, a single Sword Light is beyond…
Upon this thought, Zuo Gong sees a second green Sword Light illuminate from Chen Mobai’s index finger. He can’t help but look surprised.
[What’s going on? He’s actually cultivated a second Sword Light, and it seems to be a Wood Attribute. Seems quite mature, has he been preparing to cultivate my Five Elements Sword Devil for a long time?]
But what happens next makes Zuo Gong’s eyes widen in shock.
He sees Chen Mobai’s thumb emitting Purple Fire Sword Light, his index finger showing Divine Wood Sword Light, and his middle finger revealing fragments of black Sword Light with gleaming ice particles.
Three different Sword Lights of Fire, Wood, and Water attributes!
The Immortality Scripture is comprehensive, containing a technique called “Divine Wood Sword Qi”. Chen Mobai uses Sword Light Shapeshifting to evolve it into “Divine Wood Sword Light”.
The Water Attribute Sword Light was modeled on the Blackwater Cultivation. He had not only dabbled in it himself but had also guided Luo Yixuan in her cultivation. It was something he was very familiar with.
By evolving the Dark Water Cultivation’s Ice Breath, he transformed it into Black Ice Sword Light.
As for the remaining Earth and Metal attributes, Chen Mobai plans to go to the Dao Academy Library when he is free to see if there are any suitable Sword Cultivation methods.
However, his act of manifesting three different attribute Sword Lights on his left hand clearly conveys his intention to Zuo Gong.
Zuo Gong, the director of The Sword Control Department in the Dance Tool Dao Academy, a Golden Core sword cultivator and master of the Sword Destruction Collection, is utterly stunned at this point.
Others might think that Chen Mobai has cultivated three different Sword Light techniques. But only he knows that effortlessly manifesting Sword Light of different attributes like that on his fingers could only be achieved with “Sword Light Shapeshifting”!
His mouth agape, his face full of disbelief.
“You…you…you…you…”
Zuo Gong points at Chen Mobai’s right hand, trembling, barely able to speak clearly.
“Teacher Zuo, I made a breakthrough in Sword Dao recently, but I feel that the realm I’ve attained is different from the Exalted Sword Dao of ‘One Sword Breaks All’. I looked up some information online but found it unclear, so I came to you for guidance. After listening to your advice, I now realize that ‘Sword Light Transformation’ can be used to cultivate your Sword Destruction Collection. This is great. I now have a clear idea of the path I need to follow in Sword Dao.”
Chen Mobai rises to bow respectfully to Zuo Gong.
And he means it earnestly.
Honestly, without this conversation with Zuo Gong, he wouldn’t have thought that Sword Light Shapeshifting could be used in such a way.
“Were you truthful about what you said initially?”
But Zuo Gong feels kind of awkward. Earlier, when Chen Mobai said he had made a breakthrough, Zuo Gong assumed Chen Mobai was coveting the Exalted Sword Secret in his possession.
Thinking back, even Zuo Gong, who’s experienced in life, feels his face heating up from embarrassment.
