Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and thanked him: "Thank you, Master, for your guidance. The techniques I have learned are extremely complex and I have not put enough effort into sword cultivation.
Especially in terms of sword intent, progress is relatively slow."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal smiled and said: "It's okay, it's normal to take detours in cultivation.
You are only about five hundred years old, and you have already broken through to the Mahayana realm.
The cultivation level has improved so quickly, and the alchemy talisman array has not yet fallen, so it is inevitable that there will be flaws in other aspects.
Fortunately, it's not the time of war yet, so there is plenty of time to improve."
"It is not a problem that what I have learned is mixed. Before I created Guiyuan Sword Intent, what I learned was extremely mixed.
He has mastered dozens of sword intentions, but all sword intentions are like a piece of loose sand.
I spent a lot of time and energy to understand the sword intention, but it couldn't exert any power.
These sword intentions interfere with each other, making it very difficult to go further.
Later, I wanted to find a leader among these sword intentions and let this leader manage other sword intentions.
After spending a hundred years, he finally created the Guiyuan Sword Intent in the early stages of becoming a god.
You have also practiced Guiyuan Sword Intent. This Sword Intent is like a tree, with one Sword Intent as its backbone.
Other connected sword meanings are branches, gradually expanding to include all sword meanings in the tree.
When the method is used, all the branches obey the orders of the trunk."
"Disciple understands that the disciple's many methods can also be regarded as a tree, and one needs to choose one method as the trunk.
The disciple also had this idea before, and the tree trunk he chose has the magical power of the domain."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal nodded: "Your methods do have this trend. The Five Elements Sword Domain also contains the power of the Five Elements Divine Thunder.
If you are given some time, you can really integrate the many things you have learned.
Unfortunately, you found the wrong tree trunk."
Wang Daoyuan was a little confused: "Disciples don't understand that the field has the function of containing everything.
Moreover, the disciple's magical power is a domain, and the container of heaven is also a small world.
Choosing the field as the trunk of many means should be the best choice."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal smiled and said: "You have suffered from a lack of knowledge. The spiritual energy in the north of Jue Tianyuan has declined, and there are no many experts. You have a serious lack of knowledge.
In the entire Qianyuan world, there are countless monks with domain magical powers, but I have never seen a great master who uses domains to command many methods."
“Although the domain can gather spiritual energy and increase the power of many spells, it cannot be integrated with other means.
In the field, it is indeed possible to use various means at the same time.
However, these methods are also isolated from each other and have little coordination with each other.
Think about it, what level of combat power will you have now when the Five Elements Sword Domain and the Five Elements Divine Thunder are combined with the domain's magical powers?
If the Five Elements Sword Domain and the Five Elements Divine Thunder are not integrated, what level of combat power will they have if they are combined with the domain's magical powers?"
Wang Daoyuan thought for a moment and then replied: "My disciple met a middle-stage Mahayana monk in the fragments of the fairy world.
At that time, I had just broken through to Mahayana and had not yet integrated the methods.
After fighting with him for half an hour, even Dao Yun used it.
If it weren't for the disciple's greater power of heaven, he might not be his opponent.
Now that the Five Elements Sword Domain has merged with the Five Elements Divine Thunder, if we meet that person again, taking his life is like picking something out of a bag."
"That's it, domain magical power is a versatile method, and it can be used with any magic or secret technique.
You don't need to deliberately control it, it can play a huge role.
Treating it as the backbone to guide other means will not greatly improve your strength.
Your many methods turned out to be a piece of loose sand, and with the addition of domain magical powers, they just turned into a pile of pebbles.
It's stronger than before, but it still hasn't condensed into a hard stone.
Just like Qiyao Talisman Immortal, he should have broken through to the realm of true immortal by now.
He is the same as you, his magical power is the domain, and the heavenly container is the small world, but his main method is the talisman array.
The formations and spiritual talismans are all integrated into the talisman formation. His swordsmanship is also good. It is not an exaggeration to call him a swordsman.
He integrated many methods into the talisman formation to have such strong strength.
It can be said that he was the first person among the Sons of Destiny to be able to fight back and forth with the leader of the Demon Clan back then.
Domain magical powers are the strongest auxiliary means, but they are not suitable as the main means."
"Master, is it true that domain magical powers can only be used as auxiliary means?"
Guiyuan Sword Immortal shook his head: "Of course not, there are also experts who use domain magical powers as their main method.
That man was a person from more than 100,000 years ago, and his name was Duotian Shenzun.
He relied on formations to cultivate his domain's magical powers into an existence similar to a secret realm.
Once the enemy falls into its territory, it will be surrounded by formations at all times.
He majored in space laws and relied on space laws and formations to suppress his opponents.
To be honest, his methods are not entirely based on domain magical powers, but focus on both domain and formation.
If you can master the laws of space and cooperate with the sword formation, you can pay equal attention to the sword formation and the domain.
It’s just that the strength exerted in this way is not as good as directly focusing on the sword formation.”
Wang Daoyuan thought for a while: "Forget it then, although I can use the power of the domain's magical powers to exert the laws of space.
But among the eight laws he has understood, there is no law of space.
It may take a long time to realize it and integrate it into the container of heaven.
I had planned to focus on practicing sword formation before, so I should focus on sword formation."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal nodded with satisfaction: "You are the son of destiny. How you grow is directly related to the future of the Qianyuan Realm. I dare not directly determine the path of cultivation for you.
In the past, I didn't dare to teach you too much for fear of affecting your future.
Only when you have doubts will we help you point the way.
Now that you have chosen to focus on the sword formation, I can teach you well as a teacher."
Wang Daoyuan bowed and saluted: "Disciple, please give me your master's advice on how to make up for the shortcomings of the sword formation."
“Although the sword formation has formation elements, it is actually still a sword cultivation technique.
Any sword cultivation technique takes the sword energy as its form and the sword intention as its spirit, just like the human body and soul.
If a person is godless, he is a living dead.
If you emphasize sword energy but despise sword intention, sword intention is too weak.
The sword cultivation spells he cast were like those of a person who was physically strong but whose soul was seriously damaged.
No matter how strong his body is, he is just a slow-witted fool.
It's okay to scare the weak, but it's vulnerable to an expert.
Your immortal power has taken shape. When I first broke through to Mahayana, I was far inferior to you.
If the immortal power is strong enough, the sword energy will naturally be very powerful.
If you work hard on immortal power, it will be difficult to make progress in a short period of time.
If you want to increase your power, the simplest and most direct way is to increase your sword intent."
Wang Daoyuan was a little disappointed: "Disciples also know the importance of the sword's intention, but it takes a long time to understand the sword's intention.
To truly understand the meaning of the sword, you also need an opportunity.
Sometimes a flash of inspiration can outweigh a hundred years of hard work.
It’s not easy to make Guiyuan Sword Intent improve by leaps and bounds in a short period of time.”
Guiyuan Sword Immortal smiled and said: "You don't understand the sword's intention enough. You don't know what the sword's intention is."
"Isn't sword intention the power derived from one's own understanding of the way of the sword? The essence still belongs to the 'god' in the essence."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal nodded: "That's right, the essence of sword intention is indeed 'god', but many things can be derived from this essence.
The essence of various spells is spiritual power or immortal power, but the spells they perform are completely different.
If you practice Taoism with the sword, you will know that the meaning of the sword and the law are the same.
All the sword intent you have can be turned into laws.
At the same time, all the laws you master can also be turned into sword intent.
The stronger the sword intention, the stronger the law, and vice versa.
What should we do next, do you understand?"
Wang Daoyuan thought for a moment, then his face showed joy: "Disciple, I understand, thank you Master for your guidance."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal was very satisfied: "The understanding is indeed much better than mine."
Wang Daoyuan's domain magical power spread out, covering dozens of miles in radius.
Within the scope of the domain coverage, the spatial laws fluctuate sometimes strongly and sometimes weakly.
Even the surrounding black energy is driven by the laws of space.
One day later, Wang Daoyuan clenched his right hand tightly, as if holding an invisible long sword.
With a wave of the long sword, a space crack appeared in front of him.
Violent space laws poured out from the cracks, and Wang Daoyuan felt like his body was about to be torn apart.
I wanted to dodge, but my body seemed to be sealed, making it difficult to move at all.
Guiyuan Sword Immortal condensed a sword shadow to block the crack, and the space instantly returned to normal.
Wang Daoyuan breathed a sigh of relief: "What happened to these violent space laws? I almost lost my life."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal taught him a lesson: "You really don't know the importance, the space in Jue Tian Abyss was cut through by my sword.
Later, many powerful earth immortals joined forces and failed to repair it, so they could only set up formations to suppress the space of Jue Tianyuan.
The space world here is extremely chaotic, and space cannot be easily torn apart.
What just blew in from the crack was space turbulence. It was just a small flow, but it almost killed you.
If I weren't here, you would have died due to the turbulence of space."
Wang Daoyuan was also in shock: "That was space turbulence just now? It's really dangerous.
The disciple just realized the way of space and gained something, so he hit it casually and almost caused a catastrophe."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal also looked pleased: "Your understanding is indeed good. Before you fully mastered the laws of space, you realized the sword intention of space with the help of the domain's magical power.
Sword intent and law complement each other. Whichever one makes progress, the other will also improve accordingly.
The sword intention and the law are practiced together, so the two paths go hand in hand, and it is not easy for bottlenecks to occur."
Wang Daoyuan has just realized the spatial sword intention and wants to use the sword intention to control the laws of space.
Guiyuan Sword Immortal quickly stopped him: "You can stop for a while. It is too dangerous to understand the laws of space here."
Wang Daoyuan was a little embarrassed: "This disciple has just found a new direction of progress and is a little anxious."
"Don't be anxious, you have understood the eight laws yourself.
Through these eight laws, understand the corresponding sword intention, enhance the power of Guiyuan sword intention, and then try to fight with me."
Wang Daoyuan nodded and sat down cross-legged.
The whole body is wrapped in a layer of turquoise energy, with a strong breath of life.
There were a few withered grasses on the tomb of Guiyuan Sword Immortal, but under the influence of this breath of life, new shoots actually grew.
The new shoots grew bigger and bigger, and within a few days, the grave was covered with green grass.
Wang Daoyuan woke up and waved his sword with his right hand.
It seemed that nothing happened, but the grass on the tomb of Guiyuan Sword Immortal all turned yellow.
Guiyuan Sword Immortal quickly stopped him: "There are only a few grasses on my grave, don't kill me."
Wang Daoyuan waved his hand again, and the withered yellow grass on the grave was instantly dyed green, creating a vibrant scene.
One of the grasses grew taller and taller, and soon it was more than ten feet tall.
"I said you should practice your sword intent well, why are you tossing the grass on my grave?"
Wang Daoyuan withdrew his sword intention: "Isn't this disciple practicing his skills? After practicing the law of life, there are only a few living things nearby, so we can only use them to test the sword.
The power of the law and the intention of the sword really complement each other. After understanding the law, it is really easy to understand the intention of the sword."
"That's natural. Although most sword cultivators' Heavenly Dao containers are sword-shaped, sword-shaped Heavenly Dao containers are not necessary.
There have also been some powerful sword immortals, but the containers of heaven are not in the shape of swords.
Their strength in sword cultivation is not weak, it depends on the connection between sword intention and law.
No matter what type of container of heaven, as long as you understand the sword intention corresponding to the law, you can use the sword intention to activate the power of the law, and then use the power of heaven."
"After you understand the sword intention corresponding to the law, you can also use the original sword intention to understand the corresponding law.
Guiyuan Sword Dao is open to all rivers, no matter how complex the methods are, Guiyuan Sword Intent can control it."
Wang Daoyuan said yes and continued to understand the meaning and laws of the sword.
After meditating for ten months, Wang Daoyuan's eyes suddenly opened, and two cold lights shot out.
Guiyuan Sword Immortal was playing with the gourd of heaven and earth and stretched out his hand to block the cold light.
"It's neither easy nor heavy. My master usually relies on the spiritual plants and beasts in this gourd of heaven and earth to relieve his boredom. Don't destroy this thing."
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said: "Master, this disciple has understood the corresponding laws of all sword intentions.
There are more than thirty kinds of laws in total. If they can be integrated into the small world, the disciples should be able to compete with the great powers."
Guiyuan Sword Immortal continued to watch the spiritual beasts and spiritual plants in the gourd: "If you think too much, it is not difficult to understand the law.
But integrating these laws into the already formed container of heaven is the biggest problem for Mahayana monks.
There is no law connected with the long river of heaven, it is just an illusion.
The power that can be exerted is only at the level of the late stage of divine transformation.
With your current strength, how many times can you defeat yourself in the late stages of becoming a god?"
Wang Daoyuan said without hesitation: "My disciple is good at group fighting. I won't be a problem if I fight one or two hundred times."
"You have only comprehended more than thirty kinds of laws now. The combined power of these laws is equivalent to six or seven of you in the late stage of divine transformation.
With your current strength, it doesn't matter if you increase your strength a little bit.
These laws are not integrated into the heavenly container, and you cannot superimpose their power at all."
Wang Daoyuan looked fawning: "Master, how should Mahayana monks integrate the newly understood laws into the small world?"
"My master's container of heaven is originally a sword, and it is one with the sword's intention.
As long as the corresponding sword intention is used as a guide, the law can be easily integrated into it.
Your little world is rather special, and it’s hard to tell how to integrate it as a teacher.
However, there are eight laws in your little world, and you have also understood the corresponding sword intent.
Let’s start with these eight pairs of sword intentions and laws, and try to connect the sword intentions with the small world.”
