Without hesitation, Zhou Yang quickly turned and left, quickly returning to the cave dwelling.
Like the others, Pan Mao was also shocked when he saw the sword fragment.
"Cave Master, are you saying that someone saw it?" Pan Mao said with some fear.
"Indeed, many people saw it." Zhou Yang frowned.
"Then Cave Master, you should go out and hide. A man's wealth is his own ruin."
Zhou Yang shook his head. Dragon Tail Mountain was only so big. Astral winds could appear at any time. Where could he go?
"Let me ask you, why can't I feel any power in this sword fragment?"
"This … this is because you didn't cultivate the Ten Direction Sword Way of the Tiangang Sword Sect, so … so …" Pan Mao's eyes flashed.
"Ten Direction Sword Way!"
Zhou Yang frowned and looked at Pan Mao suspiciously. He felt that Pan Mao was still hiding a lot of things.
Thinking of this, he quickly opened the storage rings of Gao Sheng and the other two. Just as he thought, there was a martial art called Ten Direction Sword Way in their storage rings.
"Looks like you're still hiding a lot." Zhou Yang looked at Pan Mao coldly.
Pan Mao immediately broke out in a cold sweat and knelt on the ground, "Cave Master, I … I was just careless, so …"
"You don't want me to improve my strength?"
Zhou Yang opened the Omnidirectional Sword Dao secret manual as soon as he finished speaking. After reading it, he came to a realization.
"No wonder the Taiji Sword is so strong. It's the martial art of the Tiangang Sword Sect …"
"Yes, Cave Master. In the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, no matter what school of sword dao one cultivates, the martial art used is the Ten Directions Sword Dao, and the Taiji Sword is precisely the first sword of the Ten Directions Sword Dao. It is divided into nine revolutions, and Gao Sheng's subordinate is only at the second revolution …" Pan Mao said while trembling with fear.
Zhou Yang's eyes were cold. Pan Mao didn't say anything about the Taiji Sword because he was afraid that Zhou Yang would become stronger. If Zhou Yang didn't plant the poison in Pan Mao's body, Pan Mao would probably harm Zhou Yang.
Pan Mao's words couldn't be trusted!
Zhou Yang immediately began to study Ten Direction Sword Way.
After an hour, he finally felt at ease and could not help but sigh at the power of the Omnidirectional Sword Principle.
Ten Direction Sword had a total of ten martial arts. The lowest level, Taiji Sword, was already at the beginner Earth martial art level. Above Taiji Sword were the Yin and Yang Sword, the Three Talent Sword, the Four Elephant Sword, and the Five Element sword …
Among them, the Sword of Four Elephants was an Empyrean martial art.
It could be said that even if one reached the Gold Star Realm, it would be impossible to completely cultivate this martial technique. It was the strongest martial technique of the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, and it was also one of the three founding foundations of the sect.
However, to practice this martial art, one had to constantly condense Martial Veins. For example, the Tai Chi Sword required four Martial Veins to practice, while the Yin and Yang Sword required nine Martial Veins.
"Four Martial Veins. It looks like I'll have to condense two more. Fortunately, I still have the Peak Grade Star Jade."
Upon having this thought, he immediately began to condense his Martial Meridian.
Previously, in the Black Scale Cave's Thundercloud Space, he had used the Blood Praying Mat to sell twenty top-grade star jades. Now, it was just the right time to put them to use.
Circulating his primary energy, Zhou Yang began absorbing the top-grade Starjade's power. In just a moment, streams of pure power flowed into his body from his hand. This power was like a newborn life, filled with vitality.
Just as Zhou Yang had expected, the amount of Peak Grade Star Jade he used to condense his third Martial Vein was double the amount he used on the second day. He only managed to condense his fourth Peak Grade Star Jade after a total of four.
"The third Martial Vein already has four Peak Grade Star Jades. Doesn't that mean the fourth Martial Vein will have eight Peak Grade Star Jades? At this rate, when I reach the ninth Martial Vein, all the Star Jades will be a terrifying number."
Taking a deep breath, Zhou Yang could not help but frown.
The Tai Chi Sword only required four Martial Veins, but the stronger Yin and Yang Sword required nine Martial Veins.
Nine Martial Veins, 256 Peak Grade Star Jades.
"I'll take it one step at a time."
Without thinking too much, Zhou Yang continued to absorb the power of the Peak Grade Star Jades to condense his fourth Martial Vein.
Time passed slowly, and it was midnight. Suddenly, several rays of light flashed in the small cave abode. He had finally condensed his fourth Martial Vein.
"Congratulations, Cave Master. You can finally cultivate the Tai Chi Sword." Pan Mao hurriedly cupped his hands and congratulated Zhou Yang when he saw him stand up.
"Are you really congratulating me or not?" Zhou Yang sneered.
"Cave Master, Pan Mao was indeed hiding something before. However, from now on, I promise to tell you everything I know," Pan Mao said resolutely.
Zhou Yang naturally would not take Pan Mao's words to heart. He only said, "Since that's the case, then tell me, how can I cultivate the Tai Chi Sword so quickly?"
"This …" Pan Mao was a little embarrassed. After a while, he said, "Cave Master, this Tai Chi Sword has a total of nine revolutions. Your subordinate's talent is poor, and I've only completed two revolutions. I don't dare to guide you."
"Just say it." Zhou Yang smiled.
"Since Cave Master has said so, your subordinate will tell you his opinion." Pan Mao thought for a while and said, "The Tai Chi Sword is the first sword of the Ten Directions Sword Dao. Although it is only an Earth-ranked martial art, the difficulty is several times higher than other martial arts of the same level. Other than those who possess a Sword Star Soul or those who are born with a sword talent, there are only two ways to cultivate it quickly …"
"Which two?"
"First, the Sword Catacomb. The Sword Fragments contain Sword Intent. Comprehending Sword Intent can allow one to improve quickly. This is a well-known fact. However, the Sword Fragments are treasures that can only be found by luck."
"What about the second method?" Zhou Yang asked doubtfully.
"The second method is Dual Cultivation. In the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, Dual Cultivation is very common. This is because if a man and a woman cultivate the Ten Directions Sword Dao, the speed of improvement will be faster. Especially after reaching the Yin and Yang Sword Technique, the effect of Dual Cultivation will be even more obvious. However, just like the Sword Fragments, women are also a scarce resource here."
Zhou Yang nodded. Now he basically understood why the few disciples he met didn't have high attainments in the Tai Chi Sword. It turned out that it was because of the high difficulty of cultivation.
After a while, he left the cave alone and began to practice the Taiji Sword in the cave.
After cultivating for a few minutes, he felt that the Tai Chi Sword was indeed as the secret manual had said, suitable for any sword style. This also made him even more determined to cultivate the Ten Directions Sword Dao.
In just two hours, Zhou Yang had mastered all the basic moves of the Tai Chi Sword. This was all thanks to his unlimited Star Souls and the powerful Flaming Magnetic Hands.
With the Flaming Magnetic Hands, his usage of weapons could be said to be far superior to others. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was a sword genius.
However, the Flaming Magnetic Hands required him to fuse with Star Souls, and fusing with Star Souls consumed a large amount of True Qi. He couldn't keep cultivating like this.
"Tai Chi Sword, kill!"
Under the dark night sky, two rays of light, one black and one white, appeared. Following that, a huge rock split open from the middle and shattered into countless pieces of rock that were the size of a pinky finger.
"It's indeed very powerful. These broken rocks are all about the same size, and I'm only at the first revolution …"
It was not difficult for him to shatter large rocks, but only the Taiji sword could shatter them from the inside. More importantly, the shattered rocks were all of the same size. This was completely different from simply shattering a rock.
"Brat, your sword art is not bad."
Even Greedy Soul couldn't help but praise him.
"It's indeed not bad. Just at the first revolution, the gravity of my heavy sword's sword Qi increased from nine times to ten times." Zhou Yang laughed.
"More importantly, the gravity of your heavy sword is generated from the target's body. This is much more brilliant than the martial arts you learned in the past."
Zhou Yang nodded. The Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect's reputation was indeed well-deserved. With this Tai Chi Sword, his strength would increase rapidly in a short period of time.
