Chapter 931
As the saying goes, "A thousand books may contain false teachings, but a single sentence can convey true wisdom."
This saying is perfectly exemplified by the Thousand Immortals.
In the past, Chen Xuan sought enlightenment on his own, but without guidance, he was like a blind man touching an elephant, unable to grasp the essentials.
Today, after a few demonstrations and a few words of guidance from his master, he instantly felt as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through.
"Disciple, look again." Seeing that Chen Xuan seemed to have understood, the Thousand Immortals immediately waved their sleeves.
In an instant, nine swords appeared in mid-air above the cave. The arrangement of the swords looked quite familiar to Chen Xuan. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was none other than the Lesser Thousand Swords Formation that his senior brother Jianxin had used in the Hall of Proving the Dao that day.
"Based on the formation, the fused swordsmanship is unleashed through the formation; this is the way of the sword formation." The Thousand Immortal's incisive explanation was like a revelation to Chen Xuan, giving him a more profound understanding of the various subdivisions of swordsmanship.
These insights and experiences are precious lessons learned by predecessors after going through countless detours in their cultivation. They have not even been included in the Daoist Canon.
"Wow—"
"Disciple, sense the Great Dao of the Sword, and let them merge and assist each other!" Before Chen Xuan could recover, the Thousand Dao Immortal waved his hand again, and a dazzling sword light suddenly descended. Then, the sword began to change into various colors with powerful attributes, each color representing a complete ordinary Dao or the true meaning of the Great Dao.
My master was able to integrate such a complex set of principles into the Great Dao of the Sword in an instant and execute it. Based on this skill alone, it is no exaggeration to call him a sword prodigy, and he absolutely deserves the legendary title of Sword Immortal.
The sermon lasted for nearly two hours.
Many exquisite details, insights, and experiences were never revealed, even when lecturing in the sect's Dao Discussion Hall. This is the preferential treatment that only direct disciples enjoy.
With the final fusion of the Great Dao completed, the Thousand Dao Immortal gently waved his sleeve, and the various Dao pressures that permeated the cave instantly vanished without a trace.
Seeing that Chen Xuan was still immersed in the state of fusion with the Dao, the Thousand Dao Immortal smiled and called out, "Disciple, wake up."
"Hmm." Chen Xuan came back to his senses and looked at his master with great respect. "Thank you for your careful guidance, Master. Experiencing the integration of various sword techniques up close has made my understanding of the sword path clearer and clearer."
"Hehehe, to walk the path of a sword immortal, one must always guard a heart devoted to the sword and a heart of sincerity. You must always remind yourself not to let your sword heart be tarnished." The Thousand Immortals gave them a gentle and earnest advice.
"Yes, disciple will follow Master's teachings." Chen Xuan stood up and replied respectfully.
Seeing that his disciple had a deep understanding of swordsmanship, the Thousand Immortals smiled even more: "Come, come forward."
Chen Xuan nodded and walked steadily to his master.
Before he could even ask a question, he saw a finger rapidly enlarge in his pupils. Chen Xuan wanted to dodge, but although his eyes could follow the movement of the finger, his body was unable to move. He could only watch helplessly as the finger lightly touched the center of his forehead.
In an instant, a massive and complex flood of memories surged into his mind, and Chen Xuan had no choice but to calm his mind and accept them.
"Oh? Although I expected you to awaken your divine sense, I didn't expect you to be able to accept my complete sword formation technique in one go." Immortal Qiandao looked at Chen Xuan and nodded in satisfaction. In just a few breaths, he withdrew his fingers.
Chen Xuan snapped out of his daze, took several steps back, and looked at his master with undisguised surprise: "Master, this sword formation technique?"
“Indeed, this inheritance is the ‘Minor Thousand Sword Formation’ created by your master.” Immortal Qiandao explained to Chen Xuan, “Although Jian Xin also obtained this inheritance, he only learned the first six levels. As for the last three levels, only disciples personally taught by your master can cultivate them.”
Chen Xuan was overjoyed and had begun to gradually absorb and digest the massive amount of information in the Lesser Thousand Swords Formation.
In his view, if this sword formation could be fully unleashed, its power would probably be no less than the supernatural powers and secret techniques of the Daoist Canon.
"If this sword formation can be executed with a single thought and controlled at will, fighting beyond one's level is a piece of cake. However, it has a drawback," Immortal Thousand Paths said with a smile, "that is, the large number of entry-level flying sword magic treasures required to set up the formation."
