"Great Dao Energy?" Xiao Chen muttered to himself. Then, he raised his head and looked at the other party. As he mulled over these words, he pondered them.
Qing Yun nodded and said, "That's right. It is Great Dao Energy. However, you have not crossed the threshold and have not obtained the Dao, so there is no need to comprehend it now."
When Xiao Chen heard this, he smiled and said, "Your words are interesting. Comprehending the Dao is for the sake of obtaining the Dao. Why is there a need to comprehend the Dao after obtaining it? It is like the process and the result. I already have the result, so why do I need the process? "
Doubt flashed in Qing Yun's eyes as she rubbed her chin with her finger. Then, she looked at Xiao Chen strangely and asked, "Did I overestimate you? You still can't figure out such a simple principle?"
"That should not be the case. You comprehended Saber Energy at such a young age. Many Saber Sovereigns did not manage to comprehend it until their deaths."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen felt embarrassed in his heart, like she was looking down on him.
"Very well, I'll tell you about it. Obtaining the Dao means entering the door and seeing the Dao. Comprehending the Dao is to continuously improve, ponder, and search for the source of everything, all the way to eternity.
"Before you cross the threshold, everything you think is far from the Dao. The more you think, the more you feel that you are correct. Who knows, you might be even further away from the Dao."
After Qing Yun explained in detail, Xiao Chen came to his senses. Simply put, one had to find the direction first before thinking in the right direction.
Without finding the right direction, everything one thought about would just be a waste of brain power. One might even go in the opposite direction, drifting further and further away from the Dao.
"I understand. Please continue." Xiao Chen humbly accepted. Then, he gave Qing Yun a faint smile, indicating for her to continue.
When Qing Yun saw Xiao Chen's attitude, she nodded to herself. Although he was a little stupid, he was sufficiently humble.
If Xiao Chen knew what she was thinking, he probably would not be able to smile.
"I'll now demonstrate what Great Dao Energy is and give you the right direction."
After Qing Yun finished speaking, she arrived outside Pan Huang Hall and opened her palm. A light that looked like clear water leaped around in her palm.
"How familiar!"
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat. The light contained the aura of Saber Energy. However, there seemed to be many other things as well. Smoother, more natural, and more relaxed.
It was not like Xiao Chen's Saber Energy, which came bit by bit. After it appeared, it had to be released. Otherwise, it would immediately explode.
"Dao!"
With a flip of Qing Yun's hand, the light scattered into specks, bright and resplendent. Xiao Chen was shocked. There are so many of them. Could they all be Saber Energy?
Xiu!
Thousands of motes of light gathered, forming a bright wheel behind Qing Yun. Countless saber images flickered continuously. An overwhelming force burst out from Qing Yun's body. Xiao Chen felt his Qi and blood churning as he was knocked flying.
He vomited a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground. Then, he looked at Qing Yun. The other party was just standing there quietly, not doing anything at all.
However, there was an invisible power, a power that he was most familiar with, that sent him flying.
At that moment, Qingyun was like a god, unapproachable and unblasphemous. It was like a treasured saber forged from bright jade, untainted by even a speck of dust, overflowing with brilliant light, and emitting boundless majesty.
"Dao!"
The bright wheel suddenly shrank to a spot. Then, it gave off a bright light. It turned into a straight line, rising continuously as if it wanted to reach the ends of the sky.
Xiao Chen, who had already fallen to the ground, vomited a mouthful of blood as he got knocked back again. He could not block this force at all.
Even if this force did not target Xiao Chen on purpose, he could not get close to it or block it.
The bright light turned into a straight line and rose to three hundred meters before stopping. One hundred meters was no more than three hundred meters. However, it gave Xiao Chen the feeling that it was even more majestic than a tall mountain.
Qing Yun scattered the Great Dao Energy and drifted to the ground. Then, she helped Xiao Chen up and asked, "Are you alright?"
After wiping away the blood at the corner of his lips, Xiao Chen stood up and said, "I'm fine. Is this your Great Dao Energy?"
Qing Yun smiled and replied, "No. I'm just an Item Spirit. How can I obtain the Dao? This is some Great Dao Energy that Pan Huang left behind. Now, you should know what you should be working towards, right? "
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "I understand a little now."
Qing Yun looked into Xiao Chen's eyes and knew that he was not lying. She continued, "Cultivate one hundred points of Saber Energy first before you are qualified to try comprehending the Dao. One hundred points of Saber Energy merge into a perfected Great Dao Energy. Then, you can be considered to have obtained the Dao. After that, you can formally comprehend the Dao.
"I'll tell you about the Dao later. Do you still have any questions for now?"
Xiao Chen thought for a while and said, "You said that there are three thousand Great Dao and eight hundred unorthodox paths in the world. Can you list them in detail and which Dao ranks higher?"
Qing Yun shook her head and said, "Three is just an imaginary number. The three thousand Great Dao means that the Dao is boundless. There are countless unorthodox methods as well. There are definitely more than eight hundred of them. "
"The Dao itself is not differentiated by rank. It is just that in some eras, some Dao does not have any legendary characters. After a long time, this Dao will slowly weaken. In severe cases, it might even disappear. "
Qing Yun continued, "The Dao is very important, but techniques are even more important. Don't be too obsessed with the Dao. Just like a bookworm, no matter how many books he reads, if he can't put what he learned to use, he's still trash. "
Xiao Chen indicated that he understood. Just like his previous Saber Intent, no matter how strong his Saber Intent was, it was useless if he did not know how to use it.
"One last question. Is there a shortcut to cultivating Saber Energy? Right now, I need to draw Saber Energy from the Saber Domain. It is very troublesome."
Qing Yun frowned and said, "I don't know about that. What I know is the cultivation method of Great Dao Energy."
The meaning behind Pan Huang's words was that Xiao Chen's level was too low, so Pan Huang could not be bothered to leave behind such insights.
"However, you don't have to be too vexed. There have been countless Saber Sovereigns in the past. However, there are less than ten people who are truly qualified for me to teach them. Furthermore, there is not a single person who has comprehended Great Dao Energy. "
Qing Yun encouraged, "I still think very highly of you. Become the first person to comprehend Great Dao Energy under the Saber Sovereign Medallion. Otherwise, it would be too depressing if Master's good intentions were not fulfilled."
Pan Huang's purpose in leaving behind the Saber Sovereign Medallion was to give later generations an opportunity to comprehend Great Dao Energy. Unfortunately, after the peak of the Ancient Era, the Martial Dao declined.
Although there was no lack of geniuses, no one could comprehend Great Dao Energy. Qing Yun had already given up hope long ago. Only when she saw Xiao Chen did her fighting spirit reignite.
"I'll do my best."
Now that he had a direction, Xiao Chen was in no rush. He did not immediately go out to cultivate Saber Energy. Instead, he went to the side of the Lightning Pool and entered deep thought.
Xiao Chen's will of thunder was just short of breaking through to the Innate Thunder Crystal.
Of the three thousand Great Dao, the Thunder Dao was definitely among them. Aside from the Saber Dao, Xiao Chen also desired this Thunder Great Dao a lot.
Ever since he started cultivating the Purple Thunder Divine Incantation, he had formed an affinity with lightning. No matter how he looked at it, he needed to comprehend the Thunder Great Dao in the future.
Wanting to cultivate the Thunder Dao was like the Saber Dao needing to comprehend Saber Energy. The Thunder Dao needed to make a breakthrough and obtain an Innate Thunder Crystal.
"Although it looks rather scary, my will of thunder is just short of breaking through. It would be too much of a pity if I don't give it a try."
After making up his mind, Xiao Chen closed his eyes and jumped into the pool filled with countless lightning bolts.
"Boom!"
In just an instant, this strand of Spiritual Sense vanished. Back in reality: Xiao Chen's entire body trembled. His head ached, and his entire body went numb.
His teeth chattered uncontrollably. Xiao Chen could only clench his teeth tightly, afraid of accidentally biting his tongue.
However, despite the pain, Xiao Chen was delighted to discover that the bottleneck of his will of thunder had loosened somewhat.
"Again!"
After the pain passed, Xiao Chen sent out a strand of Spiritual Sense and entered Pan Huang Hall again, jumping in without hesitation.
This repeated again and again. At the start, Xiao Chen could not last even a second. Eventually, he slowly adapted to it, staying in the Lightning Pool for an increasingly longer period of time.
When Xiao Chen made a breakthrough in Pan Huang Hall, the Iron Demon that he lured into the mysterious lake also had its own fortuitous encounter.
A fortuitous encounter that no one expected.
