Chu Mu's willpower, which was born from his powerful soul, was naturally very powerful, far surpassing that of ordinary swordsmen. Even so, he could only release his willpower to a range of 100 meters in the ancient world. One could imagine that other swordsmen could only release their willpower to a range of 10, 20, or 30 meters.
'I wonder if I can increase the range of my willpower after cultivating Tempering Mind Skill?'
With a trace of anticipation, Chu Mu studied it once and sorted out all the things he needed to pay attention to during cultivation. Then, he began to enter a cultivation state.
The cultivation of Tempering Mind Skill was different from the cultivation of the Heavenly Wilderness Sword Technique because willpower and sword origin were different. They were two different types of power.
Compared to the cultivation of sword origin, the cultivation of willpower was more mysterious.
This was also why there were so many cultivation techniques that cultivated sword origin but very few that cultivated willpower. It was too illusory, difficult to understand, and difficult to grasp.
Tempering Mind Skill was to materialize illusory willpower and refine it like a kind of energy. Chu Mu's willpower was very powerful, so it was easy for him to enter the state of cultivation. However, due to the strength of his willpower, it took some time to complete the refinement.
For an entire day and night, Chu Mu was in the midst of cultivation.
After a day and night, he finished cultivating, and all of his willpower had been refined.
Tempering Mind Skill was a basic cultivation technique after all, so it could only be refined once. However, after the refinement, Chu Mu immediately felt the difference.
He released his willpower to cover a range of 100 meters again. This was the limit that Chu Mu could reach.
After cultivating Tempering Mind Skill, the range of his willpower did not increase, but Chu Mu was not disappointed. This was because he realized that before cultivating Tempering Mind Skill, he felt a little strenuous when he could release his willpower to a range of 100 meters. Now, he could release his willpower to a range of 100 meters without feeling strenuous.
His willpower had become more resilient.
The second change was the most important one. Everything within a 100-meter radius that was covered by his mental power had become clearer. The clarity had at least doubled.
In other words, after cultivating Tempering Mind Skill, Chu Mu's willpower had doubled, although its quantity did not increase.
For spiritual consciousness, quantity was very important, and so was strength.
Just like Sword Origin, the quantity referred to the amount of Sword Origin, while the strength referred to the purity of Sword Origin.
Both were indispensable.
At this moment, someone knocked on the door.
"Brother Chu, are you done with your cultivation?" Jiang Chuan's voice came from outside.
"I just finished cultivating." Chu Mu stood up and opened the door.
"How is it?" Jiang Chuan's eyes lit up as he asked.
"I did." Chu Mu smiled.
"It's good that you've gained something." Jiang Chuan didn't ask what he had gained. After all, strength was a private matter. His relationship with Chu Mu wasn't so good that he could casually reveal secrets. "By the way, there's a teacher who's going to talk about swordsmanship today. Are you interested in joining us?"
"Alright." Chu Mu didn't even think and immediately agreed.
The Sky Edge Sword Palace was not considered a sect. It was more like a school. Therefore, within the Sky Edge Sword Palace, there was an instructor position. To become an instructor of the Sky Edge Sword Palace, one's strength was extraordinary. They were also experienced and knowledgeable. Their cultivation was profound, far surpassing the disciples.
A swordsmanship talk meant a lesson.
An instructor's sword talk was usually held once a month. However, due to the sheer number of official disciples in the Sky Edge Sword Palace, a total of two million, it was impossible for all of them to be arranged together to listen to an instructor's sword talk.
The Sky Edge Sword Palace naturally had its own way of dealing with it. Within the Sky Edge Sword Palace, there were tens of thousands of ordinary teachers and tens of thousands of swordsmanship rooms. Every time a swordsmanship talk was held, ten thousand swordsmanship rooms would be opened at the same time. Each room could easily accommodate two to three hundred people.
It was more than enough for one teacher to handle two to three hundred disciples.
The swordsmanship talk was only held once a month. It was considered an opportunity, so how could Chu Mu miss it? Furthermore, he still had many questions in his heart that needed answers.
Together with Jiang Chuan and Ding Xuan, the three of them left the Sword Tower District and headed for the swordsmanship area.
From the moment they became official disciples of the Sky Edge Sword Palace, they had already been arranged. Who would go to which swordsmanship room, etc. This was to prevent some from having too many swordsmanship rooms and others from having too few swordsmanship rooms.
Chu Mu and the other two headed for the swordsmanship room that had already been arranged. When they arrived, there were already more than a hundred swordsmen in the room. The teacher had already arrived and was sitting at the teacher's seat at the front, resting with his eyes closed.
This teacher was a middle-aged man in his forties. According to Chu Mu's judgment, this teacher's true age was probably in his forties.
The aura he emitted was very weak, but Chu Mu could still sense it. He should be a Sword Of Gojoseon.
A forty-year-old Sword Of Gojoseon was extremely rare in the Ancient Sword Continent, but it was nothing in the Immemorial World.
The swordsmanship room looked very simple. The floor and walls were white, and there were also trapezoid-shaped seats. There was even a hundred-meter-wide arena in the corner. Although the decorations looked simple, there was a certain charm to it.
In the empty space between the teacher and the disciples, there was an incense burner. A stick of incense was burning in the burner, and green smoke rose in spirals. A faintly discernible fragrance that calmed one's heart permeated the air and spread throughout the entire swordsmanship room.
Chu Mu and the other two casually found a seat and sat down. After a while, there were more than two hundred people sitting in the swordsmanship room.
Most of them were swordsmen from the Immemorial World, while a small portion were swordsmen from the nine continents.
It was clear that the swordsmen from the Immemorial World and the swordsmen from the nine continents were very distinct.
In this situation, the teacher did not say anything. The moment he opened his mouth, he gave a simple self-introduction. His main purpose was to let the swordsmen from the nine continents know him.
The teacher's name was Ji Tianxiang, and he was a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon.
"Four-star Sword Of Gojoseon …" Chu Mu noted this name down. Perhaps this was one of the classifications among Sword Of Gojoseon. However, he did not know how powerful a four-star Sword Of Gojoseon was.
"A swordsman needs to be strong both externally and internally." The four-star Sword Of Gojoseon, Ji Tianxiang, spoke at a steady pace. His tone was rather calm. "Externally, it is the swordsman's utilization of the geographical advantage. Internally, it is the swordsman's own strength, including physical strength, Sword Origin, Sword Intent, and so on. Whether a swordsman is strong or not is directly related to his strength, but it is not everything. This is because to possess strength, one must also learn how to use it. To use strength well, one must know how to control one's own strength. Today, I will be explaining the control of strength. "
"The control of strength is limitless. It is a lifelong cultivation for any swordsman who wants to become strong." Ji Tianxiang had already prepared the contents of today's lecture. The moment he opened his mouth, he began to explain. "The control of strength is formless. However, through the research of our ancestors, the control of strength has been divided into different levels."
In this world, some of the swordsmen from the Immemorial World had indifferent expressions, while others had a trace of disapproval. Only the swordsmen from the nine continents listened attentively. This was because they had never heard of this before.
"Today, I will tell you the first level of the control of strength. This level is called Advanced Level," Ji Tianxiang said slowly.
"Advanced Level …" Chu Mu and the others repeated in their hearts.
"The so-called Advanced Level refers to being able to control one's own strength freely. Whether it is physical strength, Sword Origin, Sword Intent, Profound, or so on, the control of one's own strength has reached the level of being able to control it as one pleases." Ji Tianxiang said, "For example, when you attack your opponent with your sword, only at the last moment when your sword is about to hit your opponent will you mobilize your own strength and pour it into your sword to form an effective attack. This is Advanced Level."
"If you are able to pour your strength into any part of your sword at will and unleash an even stronger power, this is Advanced Level," Ji Tianxiang said.
Chu Mu and the other swordsmen from the nine continents memorized this. Obviously, the swordsmen from the Immemorial World already had some understanding of this. Instructor Ji Tianxiang's lecture this time was mainly aimed at the swordsmen from the nine continents.
It could be seen that not all swordsmen from the Immemorial World discriminated against the swordsmen from the nine continents.
"Next, I will explain how to cultivate the control of strength and reach Advanced Level." Ji Tianxiang explained the first level of the control of strength, Advanced Level, so that everyone had a better understanding of it.
Everyone immediately focused and listened attentively.
"There is no shortcut to the control of strength. However, some people are more talented and will be able to control their strength faster than ordinary people and reach Advanced Level." Ji Tianxiang said, "Controlling one's own strength, to put it clearly, is control. Increasing one's control over the various strengths in one's body, controlling the speed of gathering strength, controlling the efficiency of gathering strength, controlling the degree of gathering strength, and so on are all within the scope of control of strength.
"How to cultivate control of strength? Very directly, strengthen the strength of one's mind. The stronger and more tenacious one's mind, the easier it is to control one's body, and the easier it will be to reach Advanced Level. "
Following Ji Tianxiang's explanation, the swordsmen gradually revealed expressions of enlightenment. Ji Tianxiang's explanation was very direct and easy to understand. With the swordsmen's intelligence, they could completely understand and remember it.
However, being able to understand was one thing, and being able to do it was another matter.
Take the Primordial Swordsmen as an example. Many of these Primordial Swordsmen had already learned how to cultivate Power Control, but until now, only a small number of them had been able to cultivate Power Control to the first level, which was the Entry-Level Realm.
As the saying goes, 'Looking at a mountain runs a horse to death'.
When you see a mountain, you think it's right in front of you, as if you can reach it by taking a few steps forward. However, you realize that no matter how you move forward, even when the horse is running to death, you still can't reach the mountain. And that mountain still gives you the illusion that it's right in front of you, that you can reach it by taking a few steps forward. (To be continued.
