The Dao of Sealing contained the mysteries of heaven and earth. All sorts of laws were contained within it.
The Dao of Sealing was broad, profound, and unfathomable.
After making up his mind, Chu Mu gave up on cultivating. He focused all his attention and time on learning about sealing.
If he didn't have any guidance, learning about sealing by himself wouldn't be easy. That was because in order to learn about sealing, one had to have a comprehensive understanding of the foundation of sealing.
What was sealing?
To put it simply, the combination of seal and restriction was the same as a restriction.
It sounded simple, but it was extremely complex and profound. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to understand it.
If Chu Mu hadn't obtained the jade stone's inheritance, he would have had to spend at least a few months to grasp the basics of sealing.
However, it was different with the complete inheritance. The explanation of the basics of sealing was extremely clear and detailed. With Chu Mu's comprehension ability, he only needed to read it once to understand what sealing was.
Of course, that was just understanding. If he wanted to fully understand it, he would still need some time to study it.
Chu Mu was immersed in the sea of sealing knowledge. He was like a huge sponge, constantly absorbing the sealing knowledge and turning it into his own.
Seals could be divided into several sub-systems: Offensive Type Seals, Defensive Type Seals, Counter Type Seals, Binding Type Seals, and Auxiliary Type Seals.
Each sub-system of sealing contained all sorts of mysteries.
It could be said that the majority of sealing masters in the Immemorial Era only focused on one type of sealing. The other types of sealing were just auxiliary. They wouldn't spend too much time studying them because a person's time and energy were limited.
Of course, there were also some geniuses who could focus on two or three types of sealing.
Chu Mu first studied the basics of sealing. Once he had a more direct understanding of sealing, he began to think about sealing.
Previously, when he and Tu Gang had collided with the sealing, they had been bounced back. They hadn't been attacked. That meant that it wasn't an offensive sealing.
After analyzing it, Chu Mu felt that the sealing should be a defensive sealing.
Therefore, he had to focus on the study of defensive seals.
The release of the seal required hand gestures. Using the hand gestures, one's mind would be drawn, and the power of heaven and earth would be drawn to condense the seal talismans. One by one, the seal talismans would be arranged according to a certain pattern. They would resonate with each other, communicate with each other, and connect with each other. In the end, they would form a complete seal.
There were a total of 64 defensive sealing hand seals. In other words, Chu Mu had to first master these 64 hand seals, and even turn them into instincts. Then, he would delve into the method of condensing defensive sealing talismans.
After carefully studying the 64 defensive-type hand seals, Chu Mu began cultivating.
The formation of the handprint was initially completed through the hands.
If he wanted to cultivate, he naturally had to use his hands to cultivate. Thus, Chu Mu stretched out both of his hands, his ten fingers moving as he began to form hand seals.
Chu Mu's powerful mind and extreme control over his strength allowed him to reach an astonishing level of control over his own body. With just a thought, his body immediately reacted, reaching the realm of Mind and Body Synchronization.
Among the 64 defensive-type hand seals, the first one was the simplest, and the difficulty increased accordingly. When it reached the 64th one, the difficulty increased by dozens of times.
In the beginning, Chu Mu could easily condense the hand seals, but as time went on, the speed of condensing the hand seals became slower and slower, and the chances of making mistakes became higher and higher.
Tu Gang ended his cultivation and opened his eyes to look at Chu Mu. He happened to see Chu Mu's hands forming hand seals, and he was stunned.
"What is he doing?" Tu Gang was puzzled. "Is he cultivating? Is he tempering his sword intent or profound? But that doesn't look like the Nine Turns Heart Seal Technique. "
The Nine Turns Heart Seal Technique's hand seals were fixed. Even if it was an advanced cultivation method that used the Nine Turns Heart Seal Technique as a foundation, the hand seals would have the shadow of the Nine Turns Heart Seal Technique's hand seals, and could be recognized. However, the hand seals that Chu Mu condensed at this time did not have the slightest shadow of the Nine Turns Heart Seal Technique's hand seals.
"Could it be …" Tu Gang's eyes widened, and he stared at Chu Mu in a daze. For a moment, he felt a little dizzy.
Chu Mu did not know what Tu Gang was thinking. He was immersed in the cultivation of the defensive hand seals.
There was no shortcut in the cultivation of the hand seals. It relied on condensing the hand seals over and over again, gradually going from being unfamiliar to being proficient to being proficient to being completely mastered, until it became instinct.
Of course, talented people would master it faster.
Chu Mu was a talented person, and he was a very talented person.
After a day, the originally unfamiliar hand seals were gradually mastered. After three days, each of the sixty-four hand seals could be condensed successfully within a breath, and the accuracy was as high as eighty percent.
But this was not enough. Either do not do it, or do it to the best. This had always been Chu Mu's principle. Therefore, he continued to cultivate the hand seals.
Sharpening the knife would not delay the work of cutting firewood. Cultivating the hand seals was the process of sharpening the knife.
Striving for perfection, Chu Mu tirelessly repeated the cultivation of the hand seals. He was cultivating almost all the time. This kind of cultivation was undoubtedly very boring, and ordinary people would not be able to endure it.
With monstrous perception and incomparable control, Chu Mu's mastery of the hand seals rapidly deepened.
On the fifth day, Chu Mu's speed of condensing hand seals increased again. He could condense two hand seals in a breath. This speed had not reached the limit, and there was still room for improvement.
On the tenth day, Chu Mu's speed of condensing hand seals increased to three hand seals in a breath.
"I've reached the limit. It's time to study the defensive seals." Chu Mu muttered to himself. He began to read the contents of the defensive seals, and carefully comprehended them.
Sealing Masters were divided into Sealing Apprentice, Sealing Master, Sealing Master, Sealing Grandmaster, and Grand Sealing Grandmaster. Of course, there were even higher realms above Grand Sealing Grandmaster. However, Chu Mu's inheritance did not contain them. The highest realm was merely Grand Grandmaster.
In theory, Grand Grandmaster was equivalent to the Sword Of Gojoseon. However, Sealing Masters were relatively rare. Therefore, in the clan, their status was higher than the Sword Of Gojoseon.
After familiarizing himself with the sixty four defensive type hand seals, he could be considered to have reached the standard of a defensive type sealing apprentice. Next, he began to research defensive type seals. As Chu Mu researched, he took the seals in front of him as his target, combining practice with theory to better improve.
Ten days later, Chu Mu reached the entry level of a Sealing Apprentice. However, this was only the beginning.
Becoming an Apprentice was the entry level. With a clear understanding of seals, Chu Mu felt as if he was riding a flying battleship. His speed was extremely fast, and he continued to improve and deepen.
Another ten days passed. Chu Mu's attainments in the defensive seals had reached the level of a Sealing Master.
His improvement was ferocious. In another ten days, he broke through another realm and reached the level of a Sealing Master.
If other Sealing Masters were to know about this speed of improvement, they would probably be so shocked that they would lose their sense of direction. They would all kneel and beg Chu Mu to tell them how to improve quickly.
So far, only forty days had passed since he started to study seals. Chu Mu had reached the level of a Sealing Master.
This seal that trapped him and Tu Gang had already surpassed the Grandmaster level and reached the Grand Grandmaster level. It was extremely complicated and profound. It was also an excellent target for Chu Mu to study.
Learning seals not only required theoretical knowledge, but also sufficient practical experience. Only then could one become a qualified or even an outstanding Sealing Master.
Tu Gang sat down and did his own thing. He kept cultivating and finally confirmed that Chu Mu was indeed researching seals.
In the blink of an eye, twenty days had passed. Chu Mu's attainments in Sealing Mountain had once again increased by a large realm, reaching the level of Sealing Grandmaster. This level was something that other Sealing Masters would need a few years or even a dozen years to reach.
Chu Mu had given himself a deadline of three months. In total, he had ninety days. Now that sixty days had passed, there was still a month left. He had to reach the level of a Sealing Grandmaster.
Now that he had reached the level of a Sealing Grandmaster, he could more or less understand the seals that trapped them. Chu Mu discovered that they were not purely defensive seals. There was also a small portion of a Counterattack Seal. It was just that the Counterattack Seal's power was not strong. It was just that the Counterattack Seal's power was not strong.
The situation was unexpected. Chu Mu could only learn the Counterattack Seal. Just like the Defensive Seal, there were sixty-four seals.
With the foundation of the Defensive Seal, it was much easier to learn the Counterattack Seal. In just five days, he had mastered the sixty-four Counterattack Seal.
Cultivate, cultivate, research, improve, improve!
This was a combination of a defensive type and a counterattack type seal that had reached the great master level. Chu Mu's difficulty in breaking the seal had increased again. He knew that in three months, he wouldn't be able to break the seal.
First, he had to raise the Defensive Seal and Counterattack Seal to the Grandmaster level. Then, he had to combine the two seals to break them.
In the fourth month, Chu Mu let out a sigh of relief. His Defensive Seal had finally reached the Grandmaster level. As for the Counterattack Seal, it had also reached the Grandmaster level.
The next step was to figure out how to combine the defensive seals with the counterattack seals.
Different types of seals had different effects. In order to combine them, he had to find the point of convergence between the two.
This required a high level of attainment. Chu Mu worked hard to study the seals that trapped them. He advanced in reverse and combined it with his own understanding, deepening it step by step.
Tu Gang did not disturb Chu Mu. He could feel that Chu Mu was working hard to study the seals. Whether or not they could break the seals depended on Chu Mu. Otherwise, they would have to wait a few years. That was not the result he wanted.
Another month had passed. Calculating the time, Chu Mu and Tu Gang had been trapped here for five months.
On this day, Chu Mu's face was filled with joy because he had successfully fused the defensive type seal and the counterattack type seal. Although it was only a preliminary fusion, he felt that it was enough to break through the seal in front of him.
