The Way of Flying Deity and Salvation could be summed up in one word: detachment. It was to detach oneself, detach from heaven and earth, and finally find the Great Way to achieve freedom and reality. However, the Way of Flying Deity and Salvation was limited. After all, this sword art was not as good as the Nine Forms of Blood Sword.
Liu Zhaoxian naturally knew this. He murmured, "It's not hard to understand the Way of Flying Deity, but it's hard to do it. Do you remember what I said before, 'If there's no Way of Flying Deity, how can one get rid of the shackles'?"
Liu Zhaoxian sighed. There was an indescribable loneliness and helplessness in his tone. However, Wang Yan had some understanding of this loneliness and helplessness. The Way of Flying Deity and Salvation was created by Liu Zhaoxian, and it was a sword art that he wanted to use to reach the Great Way. Unfortunately, it was not as good as the Nine Forms of Blood Sword. Even if this sword art was used by Liu Zhaoxian, it was still difficult to reach the Way of Flying Deity, and he could not even detach himself from it. This was why Liu Zhaoxian sighed, "If there's no Way of Flying Deity, how can one get rid of the shackles".
"You've already understood my Way, but your Way has just begun. However, you and I have not taken the first step on the Great Way."
Liu Zhaoxian shook his head. There was regret in his eyes, but there was also a flash of determination. Wang Yan did not care too much, but he understood the meaning of Liu Zhaoxian's words. He nodded and said, "The heart is the barrier of the Great Way, and the body is the shackles of the Great Way. If the barrier is not broken, the shackles are not removed. In the end, one will only be hesitating under the Great Way."
"You've really understood."
Liu Zhaoxian's eyes showed some approval. He continued, "This world is about to change, and I don't have much time left. Therefore, I'm ready to take that illusory step."
"Senior, you're going to break through to the Connate Realm?"
Wang Yan was surprised. If Liu Zhaoxian wanted to break through to the Connate Realm in a short time, he could only enter the Golden Lights Cave. Could it be that he volunteered to come to the North Victory Continent and challenged the Natural Old Monk?
"Yes and no."
Liu Zhaoxian's answer sounded ambiguous, but Wang Yan understood. He knew that Liu Zhaoxian really wanted to break through to the Xiantian realm, but that was not his goal. He wanted to take the first step in the process of breaking through to the Xiantian realm, to transcend himself.
How to transcend?
Wang Yan did not understand. After all, Liu Zhaoxian had said that there was no method in this world. Moreover, he had also said that it was illusory. Wang Yan instantly understood that Liu Zhaoxian still had not found the way to take the first step in the Great Dao. It was only because he did not have much time left that he had to make a final gamble.
"Senior …"
Wang Yan wanted to say something but stopped. Although he had only known Liu Zhaoxian for a short time, he felt a sense of sorrow. He knew that it was extremely difficult for Liu Zhaoxian to find the Great Dao in the vast emptiness. Once he failed to break through to the Xiantian realm, death would be the only outcome.
Liu Zhaoxian knew that Wang Yan had not finished his words. He just waved his hand and said, "After dozens of years of living aimlessly, can you go back after finding your true self? Since you can't go back, you can only move forward bravely. As the saying goes, 'Seek the Dao with the sword, and never regret it even if you die nine times'. "
Hearing this, Wang Yan could not help but ask, "Senior, why did you choose me to teach you?"
"Because you can understand my Dao, and also because …"
As he spoke, Liu Zhaoxian pointed at Wang Yan in the air. Wang Yan immediately felt something in his pocket move. Without looking, Wang Yan knew it was the Dragon Opposing Token, which was given to him by an unknown person in the tea stall when he had just arrived in the Beisheng Prefecture.
"Liu Zhaoxian is related to the Dragon Opposing Token?" Wang Yan looked surprised, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. Seeing this, Liu Zhaoxian said with a smile, "Don't overthink it. You and I are on the same path, and our fate has already been decided. This thing is just a karmic connection. As for more things, telling you now will only burden you. When the time is right, you will know everything.
As for me teaching you Dao, in addition to the fact that we are on the same path, I actually have a request. "
Wang Yan immediately cupped one hand in the other before his chest and said, "Senior, please go ahead. Wang Yan is willing to be at your service."
"I want you to be my Tao Protector and accompany me to the Golden Lights Cave. If I fail on the verge of success, you will accompany me on my last journey to prove that I am not alone."
Wang Yan didn't expect that Liu Zhaoxian would ask for such a thing. Wang Yan didn't understand. The Golden Lights Cave was the Secret Land of the Spirit Source. In addition to the secret land that could help Peerless Experts reach the Primordial Realm, there were also countless Spiritual Flowers and Herbs. These things might not be important to people like Liu Zhaoxian, but to Wang Yan, they were undoubtedly the most precious treasures. If he could cultivate in the cave for a while, with the help of these Spiritual Flowers and Herbs, it would be easy for him to cultivate the Qingxu Sword Embryo Formula to the Advanced Level. Allowing a Warrior at the Nurturing Embryo Stage like him to enter the Golden Lights Cave was a great favor. How could it be a request?
"Although the sign of the opening of the Golden Light Cave is obvious, it's still not released yet. According to past experiences, it's still a few years away from the actual opening of the Golden Light Cave.
Once the Golden Lights Cave opens, the number of people who can enter it is limited. This is because every Secret Land of the Spirit Source has a limit on the Qi dynamic of the outside world. The Golden Lights Cave can only accommodate six Peerless Experts of the Postliminary Realm. At most, it can accommodate more than ten Warriors at the Nurturing Embryo Stage. Therefore, every Peerless Expert who enters the Golden Lights Cave will choose two Warriors at the Nurturing Embryo Stage as their Tao Protectors.
Although the Golden Lights Cave is rich in Spiritual Qi and there are many Spiritual Flowers and Spiritual Herbs that are very beneficial for cultivation, the Golden Lights Cave involves many different forces. The situation is complicated and treacherous. If you follow me in, you may lose your life. "
Liu Zhaoxian did not hide anything and told him all the secrets of the Golden Lights Cave. This was the first time that Wang Yan had heard such detailed secrets about the Golden Lights Cave. Naturally, he listened carefully. At the end, Liu Zhaoxian continued, "It is easy to say what is real and what is fake, but in fact, it is extremely difficult. Sometimes, what you see may not be real. Just like this one, no one can see the specific changes in it until it is time to reveal it.
However, it is definitely dangerous. If you agree to follow me into the Golden Lights Cave, you must be prepared to die. "
"Wang Yan is willing to follow you, Senior."
Wang Yan answered without hesitation. Although he could not see the complicated changes in the Golden Lights Cave, nor did he know the specific dangers, he knew that it was a great opportunity to enter the Golden Lights Cave. Especially after the strange experience on Mount Tailan, he was eager to increase his strength. Therefore, no matter what, he would not miss such an opportunity.
"Good. Since your Taoist Heart is firm, I will not say anything else. When the time comes, you and I will enter the Golden Lights Cave hand in hand. If anyone dares to block my way, I will kill them until they turn the world upside down."
