Then, Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged and meditated, six feet away from the red-clothed old woman, with her hands on her knees, like a student seeking knowledge, and seemed very serious.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was so polite and elegant, the old woman in red nodded and said, "Your cultivation has reached the eighth transformation of fish and dragons. I believe you will soon begin to comprehend the holy path. So, what is the essence of the holy path?"

"Some people say that the holy way is to constantly seek knowledge, learn, and explore, which makes one's own knowledge more profound. In the end, one can understand everything in the world and make one's spiritual energy reach a state of escape. For example, spiritual power monks and Confucian Taoist monks."

"Some people also say that the holy way is a rule in the dark. For example, when the sun shines on the leaves, it will leave shadows on the ground, it is a rule; water flows from high places to low places, it is also a rule."

"Humans understand the first rule, so they know that hiding under the shade of trees can enjoy the cool air. When humans understand the second rule, they know that going downstream can lead to a thousand miles a day."

"But these are the most basic rules in nature. As long as they are wise creatures, they can easily be noticed and understood. Thus, they have enhanced their ability to adapt to the environment and do some incredible things."

"The rules of the holy path are even more mysterious, and ordinary people cannot detect its existence at all. Only by constantly learning and comprehending can monks understand it and become semi-saints and saints."

"The sword path is a kind of holy path, representing the sharpest side of the holy path."

"Of course, the great way of nature, the holy way, the sword way, and even the mysterious way of time and space are actually the way of heaven."

...

…………

The old woman in red preached for nine days and nine nights, not only including the sword path and the great way of nature, but also explained some principles about space and time to Zhang Ruochen.

With her cultivation and age, her own knowledge is of course quite profound. The explanations include everything from astronomy and geography to all living beings.

The old woman in red is like the incarnation of heaven and earth, and can be said to be omniscient.

Even though she is not a descendant of time and space, her understanding of space and time is far beyond Zhang Ruochen, making Zhang Ruochen unable to meet.

For Zhang Ruochen, some of the things she explained were completely a new door, like a burst of enlightenment, making Zhang Ruochen's heart clearer, and his view of everything gradually became clearer.

Zhang Ruochen absorbed Qi Hong's knowledge of swordsmanship and holy paths. He was still a little confused and could not understand many things. Until now, he actually felt that he was about to integrate them.

"Wow!"

A pillar of light rushed out from above Zhang Ruochen's head.

The next moment, his martial soul condensed in the pillar of light, taking on a human form, exactly the same as Zhang Ruochen.

At the same time, the first holy rule continued to condense and finally appeared in shape, like an extremely thin light that merged with the martial soul.

Immediately afterwards, the second holy path rules and the third holy path rules... were condensed one after another, like spider silk.

I don’t know how long it took for Zhang Ruochen’s martial soul to stabilize, and a total of thirteen holy rules were condensed.

The old woman in red nodded and said, "It is already quite good to just have the eighth transformation of the fish and dragon, the thirteen holy path rules can be condensed."

With the realm of an old woman in red, it is already a very high evaluation that she can say the word "good".

You should know that if the ninth transformation of the fish and dragon monks can condense the rules of the twelve holy paths, they can already attack the semi-saint realm.

However, even if the true pride of heaven condenses the rules of the twelve holy paths, they will not easily break through. Instead, they will continue to comprehend, accumulate, and strive to condense more holy paths.

Why do this?

The twelve holy path rules have been integrated with the holy soul of the monk, which is the twelve holy paths of the monk. Even if the semi-saint understands the thirteen holy path rules, they cannot integrate into the holy soul.

Because, once you break through to the semi-saint realm, the monk's holy soul will be completely formed and become stable, and you cannot continue to integrate the rules of the holy path. At that time, the rules of the holy path that you comprehend can only become an auxiliary to yourself.

A semi-saint can only continuously improve the rules of the twelve holy paths, or choose one of the holy paths as the main practice and practice it to the extreme before becoming a saint.

However, the more rules of the holy path are integrated in the holy soul, the more powerful the power of the holy soul will definitely be more comprehensive, which will have infinite benefits for future cultivation.

The old woman in red continued: "There are nine 'ancient ways' between heaven and earth, seventy-two 'supreme holy ways', three thousand 'big ways', and hundreds of thousands 'small ways'."

"In the Fish and Dragon Realm, the stronger the Holy Dao Rules that integrate into the Holy Soul, the more the Holy Dao Rules that integrate into the Holy Dao Rules, the higher the future achievements will definitely be."

"Now, the rules of the thirteen holy paths you condensed are all small paths. If you break through to the semi-saint realm now, then your pretty good seedling will be completely ruined."

It is obvious that the old woman in red is reminding Zhang Ruochen to prevent him from being too utilitarian and destroying himself.

Zhang Ruochen asked, "Dare you ask my mother-in-law, how can we practice the great way, the supreme holy way, and the eternal way?"

The old woman Hongyu seemed extremely patient and said, "The small path is easy to accomplish, but the great path is difficult to cultivate. The supreme enlightenment is unparalleled in the world."

"Any of the three thousand great ways is quite mysterious. Only geniuses with extremely high understanding have the opportunity to cultivate the rules of the holy way in the fish and dragon realm."

"As for the seventy-two supreme holy paths, it is even more amazing. Being able to comprehend one of them is enough to benefit one."

"For example, sword path is one of the seventy-two supreme holy paths."

"However, cultivators in the Yulong Realm will have the opportunity to condense the rules of swords once they practice swords to the tenth level of great perfection."

Zhang Ruochen suddenly realized and said, "No wonder most of the cultivators who practiced swords to the tenth level of great perfection in the Yulong Realm can become sword saints later. It turns out that they incorporated the rules of swordsmanship into the martial souls. Just this is not comparable to other sword cultivators."

The sword path is one of the seventy-two supreme holy paths. It is naturally quite amazing for those who can integrate it into the martial soul, and their future achievements will definitely be quite amazing.

The old woman in red said: "In the Fish and Dragon Realm, she comprehended the rules of swordsmanship and integrated into the martial soul, and only opened a door. In the future, she must continue to practice unremittingly, improve the rules, and add some small paths and aids to the great paths to have the opportunity to become a sword saint. For example, the sharp path, the smart path, and the way to achieve success. Any kind of small path cannot be underestimated."

"Although the sharp way is just a small way, as long as you can cultivate to an extremely high level, you may not have a chance to become a sword saint. However, cultivators use the sharp way as the basis to strive for the sword saint's realm. Even if they have a deep understanding of the sword saint when they are a semi-saint, it will definitely be quite difficult."

"After all, any great way needs the assistance of the small way. Therefore, the more rules of the holy way the monks comprehended in the fish and dragon realm, the more benefits they will have in the future."

Zhang Ruochen nodded and finally got a certain understanding of the small path, the great path, and the supreme holy path. So he asked again: "So time and space also belong to the supreme holy path?"

The old woman in red shook her head and said, "Time and space belong to two of the nine 'the way of eternal ancient'. In addition, there are seven ways of eternal ancient, namely: truth, morality, origin, light, darkness, destiny, and nothingness."

"Time and space build the world where we live."

"Truth and morality have evolved into thousands of knowledge, which are scattered between heaven and earth."

"Light and darkness, derived from life and death, good and evil."

"Of course, the most powerful things in the nine 'Eternal Ways' are 'Fate' and 'Nothing'. Fate can determine everything, and nothingness can destroy everything."

The old woman in red said that the words were very mysterious. She had completely deviated from martial arts and even surpassed the holy path. Even with Zhang Ruochen's current realm, she just seemed to understand it.

The old woman in red seemed to see the doubts in Zhang Ruochen's heart and said, "In fact, it is normal for you to understand your current state. The reason why I told you the nine eternal ways is because you have the divine martial arts mark in time and space, and you have a good chance to practice the rules of time and space."

"If you can really succeed, you will have a chance to become the third time and space controller in Kunlun Realm in history. However, for you, this path will be very difficult."

Zhang Ruochen looked solemn and looked firm, saying, "Young people will definitely work hard. No matter how difficult it is, they will do their best to pursue the way of eternity."

The old woman in red shook her head and said, "Since ancient times, there are only a handful of people who can comprehend the nine great ways of eternal ancient times in the fish and dragon realm, and each one is a genius who can overcome the world."

"Old body does not mean that you must comprehend the two ancient ways of time and space. Instead, I hope that when you cannot do it, you can learn to give up. Practice the sword to the extreme and still become a person who stands tall."

"Time and space can become two auxiliary ways. When you reach the realm of a saint, it is not too late to slowly comprehend. In this way, your swordsmanship will become stronger."

Obviously, the old woman in red did not think that Zhang Ruochen could comprehend the rules of time and space in the fish and dragon realm.

That's why she was worried that Zhang Ruochen would get into a dead end and be trapped in the fish and dragon realm, and would never reach the semi-saint realm.
