"In the Dao of weapons, be it sword or saber techniques, there are three realms: form, force and intent,"
The Saber Emperor's voice continued, "By form, it refers to the moves of a saber technique. That's the most basic realm. As long as a cultivator is willing to cultivate diligently, they will definitely be able to reach a level where they can wield the saber with ease. "
"Force is the second realm. It's relatively abstract and can be understood as aura, momentum and momentum. It's not something that everyone can cultivate. Some people won't be able to understand the meaning of force their entire lives. "
"At the realm of force, the might of a saber technique will be even greater and rise to a whole new level!"
"The third realm is intent. Swords have sword intents and sabers have saber intents. Simply put, intent is a concept that is even more ethereal and ethereal. A single slash will possess the might of Heaven and Earth! Only by cultivating an Essence Spirit will one be able to comprehend the mysteries of intent. "
One had to be at the Nascent Soul realm at the very least if they wanted to cultivate to the third realm. Su Zimo did not have to consider that at the moment.
Right now, he only had to cultivate the first two realms of his saber technique.
Su Zimo withdrew Blood Quencher and recalled the five stances of the saber technique that the Saber Emperor demonstrated before starting to practice them on the mountain peak.
Just as the Saber Sovereign had said, even though there were only five simple saber techniques, it was as difficult as ascending to the heavens to execute a complete saber technique!
Su Zimo finally understood why the Saber Emperor set up such a test.
The Sea Calming Manual had way too high a requirement for one's physique!
Countercurrent was merely a starting stance and if one's physique was not strong enough, their entire arm would explode!
After attaining lesser mastery of the Orifice Clearing section, Su Zimo could only release it while channeling his bloodline.
Every single muscle in his body had to be mobilized for that slash!
Of course, that was not the only difficulty in executing a complete saber technique.
Every single move, timing, angle of attack, control and strength must not be off in the slightest. Otherwise, the saber technique would not be able to be executed.
He had to experiment and practice repeatedly.
Fortunately, Su Zimo had experienced Countercurrent, Raging Waves, Vortex, and Ripple when he had crossed the Spirit Sea. It was relatively easy for him to understand them.
Ten days later, Su Zimo did not sleep or rest. He was finally able to complete the first four moves of the saber technique.
He wasn't familiar with the Four Styles of Saber Art. In fact, he was still a little shaky, but he had finally succeeded.
However, no matter how hard Su Zimo adjusted, recalled, and practiced, he could not perform the last move, the Sea Quelling Move.
It was clearly a very simple strike, but Su Zimo was unable to use it.
Su Zimo wasn't discouraged. According to the Saber Sovereign, the Sea Calming Stance was the essence of the Sea Calming Manual. If he could comprehend it, he could go anywhere in the world!
What kind of realm was that?
It was probably beyond Su Zimo's knowledge.
During these ten days, apart from Su Zimo, there was also a burly man on the mountain peak who watched Su Zimo practice his saber technique silently without saying anything.
Ten days later, when he saw that Su Zimo was able to perform the first four moves of the saber technique completely, a look of relief flashed through the burly man's eyes.
"Very good, you're very good."
The Saber Sovereign nodded and his voice gradually dimmed. His figure faded rapidly as well and disappeared from the world.
Su Zimo retracted his saber and bowed deeply in the direction where the Saber Sovereign's figure disappeared.
The next moment, the saber mountain collapsed and the spirit sea evaporated.
Standing in midair, Su Zimo suddenly felt a little sad.
With the inheritance of the Tidal Manual and Sea Calming Manual, the last traces of this unparalleled hero of the ancient era on Tianhuang Mainland disappeared as well.
On the shore, many cultivators watched everything in shock and remained silent for a long time.
The saber mountain spirit sea disappeared before everyone's eyes at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The saber mountain turned into a pile of useless gravel and the spirit sea dried up, returning spirit qi.
From this day forth, there was no more saber mountain spirit sea in Tianhuang Mainland!
Everyone was fortunate enough to witness everything.
Su Zimo landed on the ground and fell into deep thought, carefully comprehending the second realm that the Saber Sovereign mentioned – force!
Under normal circumstances, Su Zimo's performance of the four saber techniques was extremely jerky and he had not even reached the first realm – there was no need for him to try and comprehend the second realm.
However, Su Zimo felt a sense of déjà vu towards the comprehension of force.
When he was studying in Ping Yang Town, Su Zimo often practiced calligraphy.
In calligraphy, there was a saying of the nine forces – it referred to the nine strokes of the brush and the laws of writing.
Even without the guidance of a master, one could reach the wondrous state of calligraphy as long as they cultivated diligently and cultivated diligently.
In reality, the force of the nine forces of calligraphy was similar to the force that the Saber Sovereign mentioned.
There was always a general principle that was interconnected in all things.
This was also the common saying of the cultivation world that all things were the same.
Under normal circumstances, ordinary cultivators who were not familiar with saber techniques would not be able to understand the meaning of force, let alone reach that level.
However, Su Zimo was a scholar before he embarked on the path of cultivation and had studied the nine forces of calligraphy.
Su Zimo was no stranger to force.
Therefore, even though he was unfamiliar with the saber techniques of the Sea Calming Manual, Su Zimo tried to comprehend the force within and seemed to have gained something.
Su Zimo closed his eyes and gradually entered an indescribable mysterious state.
This was a rare state of enlightenment that was extremely rare.
Once it was awakened, he would definitely gain something!
After the saber mountain spirit sea disappeared, Su Zimo attracted everyone's attention.
When he entered the state of enlightenment, everyone was in an uproar.
For Su Zimo, the fact that he was in such a state right now was definitely a disaster rather than a blessing!
There was no one around Su Zimo to protect him and any external stimulation could interrupt his Dao enlightenment process, causing him to fail at the last step.
That was secondary.
That was because there was someone who wanted Su Zimo's life right now!
"Since the heavens want your life, don't blame me for it!"
Bai Yu smiled sinisterly and in a flash, withdrew a long saber with a cold glint from his storage bag and sped towards Su Zimo.
When he arrived close, Bai Yu slashed with his saber.
That slash was neither fast nor strong. Furthermore, it did not emit any killing intent.
Bai Yu was worried that he would awaken Su Zimo who was in the midst of enlightenment and something unexpected would happen.
It was silent, but it was a fatal strike!
Su Zimo's eyes were still tightly shut, as though he had not sensed the impending danger and was on the brink of death!
When they saw that, many cultivators shook their heads and sighed.
Initially, everyone was envious of this person for obtaining the Saber Emperor's inheritance.
However, who would have thought that this person would die in the blink of an eye? At the end of the day, they could only lament that fate was toying with them.
When he saw that the blade was about to slice Su Zimo's throat, Bai Yu's lips curled into a smug smile.
"Who cares if you have the Saber Emperor's inheritance? You're still going to die in my hands!"
Bai Yu sneered.
Just as the blade was about to slice Su Zimo's throat, Su Zimo's figure suddenly retreated without warning, narrowly avoiding that fatal slash!
"Hmm?"
Bai Yu's expression changed and he narrowed his eyes.
