Storm, a new storm had formed, and the center of the storm was Chu Mu again.
"Have you heard? Chu Mu has passed the sixth level of the Puppet Sword Formation."
"Didn't he just stop at the fifth level? How did he pass the sixth level in just two days? "
"He is a genius. Do you know what a genius is? A genius is someone who can do things that ordinary people can't."
As for Chu Mu, he left the Puppet Sword Formation area with the one thousand five hundred Sky Edge Coins he had obtained after passing the sixth level. Together with the four hundred Sky Edge Coins that Chu Mu still had, he now had one thousand nine hundred Sky Edge Coins.
It could be said that Chu Mu was the wealthiest among all the swordsmen from the nine continents. Even the official disciples of the Sky Edge Sword Palace couldn't compare to Chu Mu's Sky Edge Coins.
After leaving the Puppet Sword Formation area, Chu Mu knew that he wouldn't be coming here for a long time. Unless his strength increased significantly and he was confident that he could pass the seventh level of the Puppet Sword Formation, he would come again.
While walking towards the Sword Tower District, Chu Mu pondered over the use of the one thousand nine hundred Sky Edge Coins.
Now that his sword intent had reached perfection, there seemed to be no need for him to go to the Sword Cleansing Pool anymore. Among all the profounds, only the Lacerating Profound had reached perfection. The other profounds were still far from perfection, especially the most profound Profound of Space. Not to mention perfection, even Dacheng was still far from it.
Chu Mu couldn't help but think back to what Ji Tianxiang had told him. Profounds depended on their purity, not their quantity. Unless one comprehended one type of profoundness to its true limit, only then would one comprehend a second type of profoundness. Otherwise, multiple types of profoundness would invisibly affect each other, making it difficult for the profoundness to become pure and limiting the power of the profoundness.
Chu Mu had comprehended a lot of power Upanishads. He had cultivated five of them, but he had never paid attention to the other four. However, as his realm increased, his understanding of the other four increased little by little. Thus, it had slowed down Chu Mu's comprehension of power Upanishads, which made it harder for him to purify them.
"Chu Mu, you are finally back. Instructor Ji Tianxiang sent someone to pass on a message for you to look for him." Outside the Sword Tower, Jiang Chuan was looking around. When he saw Chu Mu, he quickly rushed over and said.
"The instructor is looking for me. I'll go right away." Chu Mu came back to his senses, quickly turned around, and strode towards Ji Tianxiang's residence at an extremely fast speed.
…
"Good boy. In just two short days, your strength has increased so much. You went from barely passing the fifth stage to barely passing the sixth stage. Your sword intent and one of the profundities should have reached perfection, right?" Ji Tianxiang could not help but speak first when he saw Chu Mu. His face was full of smiles.
"I just reached perfection not long ago. I have some questions in my heart." Chu Mu said. Ji Tianxiang was a very good person to ask for advice.
"Go ahead." Ji Tianxiang seemed to have already prepared for this.
"Instructor, it's about power Upanishads. According to the instructor, only after comprehending a power Upanishad to the true limit would one be able to comprehend a second power Upanishad. In that case, isn't perfection Upanishad the true limit?" Chu Mu asked the question that was in his heart.
"Limit? What is the limit?" Ji Tianxiang asked back with a smile. Without waiting for Chu Mu to answer, he continued, "Everyone's limit is different. It is related to one's mental will, body strength, potential, and so on. It is very complicated. To put it simply, the limit is the threshold that one can reach in a certain period of time. Once all the potential of that period is squeezed out, there is nothing left. That is the limit. "
Chu Mu listened. He understood the meaning of limits.
"To swordsmen with mediocre talent, reaching 100% perfection in their profound is the limit. However, to swordsmen with outstanding talent, reaching 100% perfection in their profound is an end point, as well as a new starting point." Ji Tianxiang said seriously. Chu Mu was slightly surprised, and his expression became even more focused.
"You should know that there are many kinds of talents. There are cultivation talents, comprehension talents, spiritual talents, combat talents, and so on. Different talents will have different performances." Ji Tianxiang said neither slowly nor hurriedly, "This time, we will only talk about spiritual talent. Spiritual talent originates from the soul, so spiritual talent is also called spiritual talent."
"In this world, there are countless living beings. Take us, the human race, as an example. Some people are born with stronger souls than ordinary people. Their perception is also stronger than ordinary people. These people are considered as people with soul talent." Ji Tianxiang looked at Chu Mu, his eyes twinkling. "For example, you, Chu Mu. I can tell that your soul is stronger than the average swordsman. You are a person with soul talent."
Chu Mu was not surprised.
"The soul is the most mysterious existence in this world. It is unfathomable. Until now, our ancestors have put in a lot of effort on the soul, but the result was very little."
"Just like those soul cultivation methods, in fact, these methods can't really increase one's soul strength. The reason why some people feel their soul strength increase after practicing soul cultivation methods is because the potential of their soul has been developed."
"Cultivating soul cultivation techniques is secondary to developing the potential of the soul. The main thing is to increase the strength of the soul, making the soul purer. Naturally, the spirit will also become purer and stronger."
"Let me give you a brief introduction, and focus on the connection between soul talent and Profound."
"The sword intent and Profound that a swordsman comprehends are closely related to the soul. Let me give you an example." Ji Tianxiang pondered for ten breaths. After organizing his thoughts, he continued, "For example, if a normal swordsman's soul talent is zero, then after he comprehends the sword intent, he can only comprehend one Profound and raise it to the limit. He cannot comprehend the second Profound because his soul power cannot support it."
"For example, if a swordsman's soul talent is one, then after comprehending sword intent and one type of profound to the limit, he can still comprehend a second type of profound to the limit, but he cannot comprehend a third type of profound. Do you understand what I'm saying?" Ji Tianxiang finished speaking and stared at Chu Mu as he asked.
Chu Mu nodded to show that he understood.
"The performance of soul talent is not only that. No matter if it is the sword intent or Profound, after reaching perfection, we will give a new level of concentration. Nine Turns of Sword Intent and Nine Turns of Profound. As the name suggests, after reaching perfection in the sword intent and Profound, the quantity cannot be increased, but the quality can be improved."
"Using the example just now, a swordsman with zero soul talent will reach his limit after reaching perfection in the sword intent and Profound. A swordsman with one soul talent can continue to cultivate until he reaches the true limit, which is the First Turn of Sword Intent or First Turn of Profound. A swordsman with two soul talent will reach perfection in the Sword Intent and Profound, and the limit will be the Second Turn."
"Of course, because the soul is too mysterious, there is no effective way to measure a swordsman's soul power."
"Your sword intent and one profound have both reached perfection. I don't know how powerful your soul power is, but based on your performance, I guess it shouldn't be low. Perhaps you can refine your sword intent and profound to the third or even fourth revolution."
"Then instructor, how should I refine my sword intent and Profound?" Chu Mu asked, "Also, is there a deeper meaning to refining sword intent and Profound?"
"Good question, I will answer you one by one." Ji Tianxiang nodded, a look of admiration flashing across his face, "The realm after the Origin Realm is the God Condensation Realm. Sword Saint is the second realm of Sword Dao, and the third realm is the Sword Of Gojoseon. Reaching the God Condensation Realm does not mean you can become a Sword Of Gojoseon."
"In fact, only by refining sword intent and Profound to the First Turn can you become a Sword Of Gojoseon. The more profound you refine them, the further you can go on the path of becoming a Sword Of Gojoseon. It is said that a swordsman who can refine his sword intent and Profound to the Seventh Turn or above is almost guaranteed to become a Sword Saint." Ji Tianxiang's voice contained traces of envy and yearning.
On the Ancient Sword Continent, Chu Mu did not have such a clear understanding of it.
"Of course, there are very few people who can refine their sword to the Seventh Turn, and even fewer above that. In the history of our human race, there has never been a terrifying existence who could refine their sword to the Ninth Turn."
"It is not necessary to refine one to the Seventh Turn to become a Sword Saint. Currently, most of the Sword Saints in our human race have only refined their sword to the Fifth Turn or Sixth Turn. Because of their hard work and fortuitous encounters, they can also become Sword Saints."
"Talent does not represent everything. Unwavering hard work is the most important." Ji Tianxiang said seriously, "A true powerhouse is made up of one percent talent and ninety-nine percent hard work."
"However, those with talent, with hard work, can often go further than ordinary people."
"Let me give you a suggestion. Go to the Sword Hoard and choose a Mind Tempering Technique to refine your mind and increase its strength. Then, go to the second level of the Sword Hoard and choose the Nine Turn Heart Seal Technique. It is a technique specifically used to refine sword intent and Profound." Ji Tianxiang suggested, "I remember that the Nine Turn Heart Seal Technique costs one thousand Sky Edge Coins. Do you have enough?"
"Yes." Chu Mu said. Fortunately, he did not go to the Profound Sky Wall to spend the Sky Edge Coins. Otherwise, it would be troublesome.
Ji Tianxiang changed the topic with a smile and said, "Okay, after talking so much, I still haven't told you the real reason I called you here."
Chu Mu showed an expression of listening attentively.
"The head instructor has set a goal for you." The smile on Ji Tianxiang's face disappeared as he sternly said, "Other than passing the Venerable Sword Examination within half a year, the Head Instructor was very surprised when he heard about your progress. Therefore, he told me to tell you that if you become the number one official disciple before passing the Venerable Sword Examination, he will give you an additional reward."
"In my opinion, I hope you can give it a try because the head instructor does not make promises easily. The reward he mentioned must be extraordinary." Ji Tianxiang said.
"Number one official disciple …" Chu Mu's heart was moved. His eyes shone with a sharp light as he pointed his sword at the throne! (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
