There was nothing wrong with the other party's words. The first two were still manageable. As long as Zhang Xuan didn't expose his secret, he would be able to catch his opponent off guard.
However, the third one was the most difficult one to deal with.
The reason Zhang Xuan was able to cultivate this movement technique was due to the unique bloodline he possessed, granting him an innately powerful physical body. Even without cultivating it, he could still easily execute it without suffering any damage. As for others, the same couldn't be said for them... While this movement technique was indeed powerful, it was impossible for one to cultivate it without a sufficiently powerful physical body.
If one were to forcefully cultivate it, it would only result in one's body collapsing, resulting in a drastic drop in one's cultivation.
This was something that could only be understood by those who cultivated it. It could be said to be the secret of secrets. For the other party to be able to ascertain it with just a single glance, wasn't his eye of discernment a little too incredible... Was he really just a Nascent Saint cultivator?
Seeing the other party's expression, Zhang Xuan chuckled softly.
Even without using the Library of Heaven's Path, he could still find many flaws in the other party's movement technique.
Back then, when he first started cultivating the Heaven's Path Movement Technique, he had faced the problem of his physical body being too weak and moving too quickly.
The Unbounded Voyager was even faster than the Library of Heaven's Path Movement Technique. If one's physical body wasn't strong enough, putting aside executing the movement technique, one could very well end up harming oneself before harming others.
More importantly, once one's physical body reached the Unbounded Voyager level, one would surely possess incredible strength. At that point, even without using the movement technique, one would still be able to move at incredible speeds. Thus, there was no point in learning the Unbounded Voyager anymore...
Thus, even though the other party spoke of the Unbounded Voyager, he had to have a strong physical body and abundant zhenqi to complement it. Otherwise, it would be futile.
Of course, if he possessed these two qualities and successfully cultivated the Unbounded Voyager, he would surely become invincible among those of the same cultivation realm!
Just that... it was impossible for him to acknowledge Zhang Xuan as his teacher!
"How is it? Is what I said correct? "
Zhang Xuan turned to look at the other party with a glint in his eyes.
"You are right. That's why this movement technique is only imparted to those who are talented. The fact that you were able to pass through the lava to get close to the seal and destroy it shows that your physical body has reached an incredible level. On top of that, the fact that you were able to find your way in the Unbounded World shows that your soul and zhenqi are sufficiently powerful as well... You have already cleared the trial and fulfilled the requirements to cultivate the Unbounded Voyager.
The figure paused for a moment before continuing.
Regardless of whether it was the lava or the seal, both of them were tests that he had left behind. The fact that the other party was able to come here meant that he had already cleared the test and was qualified to cultivate the Heaven's Path Divine Art.
As long as it was suitable, these flaws would no longer be a problem.
"I can cultivate it, but … I have the ability to improve this cultivation technique and make it even more powerful … I wonder if you want to hear it?"
Zhang Xuan smiled.
"Improve? Impossible! "
The figure shook his head.
His cultivation had already reached an astounding level when he was alive, but even so, he did not manage to alter his cultivation technique at all. Considering how the young man before him was only a Nascent Saint, how could he possibly succeed?
"There's no need to be in such a hurry to reject me. Why don't we do this instead? Why don't you show me your Unbounded Voyager cultivation technique, and I'll point out a few flaws in it for you to hear.
Zhang Xuan.
"I was going to impart this cultivation technique to you anyway, so it's not a big deal to show it to you. However … I'm just a fragmented soul, so I don't have much time left. If you really want to read through it, it'll probably take several hours …"
The figure said.
The reason he had left behind the ancient domain was to pass down his cultivation technique to the later generations, and the young man before him was one of the chosen ones. Naturally, he would impart the Unbounded Voyager to the other party … However, the cultivation technique was incomparably profound. Putting aside learning it, even a talented cultivator would not be able to comprehend it without several hours of study, needless to say, find its flaws!
He was just a fragmented soul, so it was likely that he would disappear before the other party could finish reading through it. If so, there was no way he could verify the authenticity of the other party's words.
"Several hours? There's no need for that. As long as you show me the cultivation technique, I'll be able to find the flaws within a minute and find a way to fix it! "
Zhang Xuan said with a smile.
"A minute?"
The figure hesitated for a moment before flicking his wrist, and a series of words reminiscent of the Milky Way appeared before his eyes.
It was the Unbounded Voyager cultivation technique.
With a single glance, Zhang Xuan could not help but feel astonished.
Just as the other party had said, there were indeed five dans to the Unbounded Voyager cultivation technique, and each dan represented a realm. Putting aside the final fifth dan, even if he were to cultivate the first dan to Major Accomplishment, his fighting prowess would rise significantly, and his speed of cultivation would increase significantly as well.
If he were to learn the Unbounded Voyager cultivation technique, his fighting prowess would surely rise even further.
Exhaling a mouthful of turbid air, Zhang Xuan chuckled softly. "It's true that this cultivation technique is unparalleled, but … if I'm not mistaken, there should be nine flaws in it, right?"
"You …"
The figure shuddered and jumped in fright.
Back then, he had asked Kong Shi to appraise his cultivation technique, and the latter had indeed said that there were nine flaws in it. However, instead of correcting them, Kong Shi had pointed them out and told him to find a way to resolve them himself.
When he first opened the ancient domain, his cultivation hadn't reached its peak yet, so he hadn't been able to find a way to resolve it. Thus, he had left the flawed cultivation technique behind.
To think that the person whom he was going to inherit would be able to deduce it with just a glance … Wasn't his eye of discernment a little too incredible?
"Firstly, when you cultivate the first dan, when your zhenqi flows through the Closed-Door acupoint, you will experience temporary blindness. If your luck isn't good, there's a good chance that you will lose your sight forever … May I know if my words are correct?"
"This … Yes!"
The figure paused for a moment before nodding his head.
What the other party had said was exactly the same as what Kong Shi had said back then!
Back then, when he first started cultivating the first dan, he did experience temporary blindness. It was fortunate that Kong Shi had saved him, and that was how the problem was resolved.
"The reason for this is due to the zhenqi flowing through the Mingmou acupoint. The acupoints that you are channeling your zhenqi through are wrong, and if you can't find the correct sequence … this will happen!"
The Library of Heaven's Path wasn't able to provide the correct cultivation technique, but it wasn't too difficult for him to point out the flaws and convince the other party.
"The second flaw is also in the first dan. When you cultivate the technique, you have to complete it in a single breath. If your zhenqi is insufficient and you are unable to channel it into the Shenxing acupoint, there's a good chance that you will end up paralyzed …"
Without any hesitation, Zhang Xuan continued.
The Unbounded Voyager, creating a gust of wind beneath one's feet, allowing one to walk further and faster! In order to achieve this, one had to open the legendary Shenxing acupoint.
This acupoint was located at the center of one's feet, and it was extremely difficult to open. It had a high requirement on the purity and density of one's zhenqi. The slightest deviation could result in one's entire body being paralyzed!
Back then, when he was cultivating the Shenxing acupoint, he had only managed to survive due to a stroke of luck. As such, none of the disciples he accepted were as fortunate as him. Not only did they fail to cultivate the technique, they even ended up losing their ability to walk.
All along, he had thought that it was due to his disciples lacking zhenqi and weak physical bodies. As long as they could find a cultivator with a bloodline as fearsome as his, they would be able to avoid such a fate … But now, the words of Kong Shi and the young man before him were spot on. Most likely … things weren't as simple as he thought.
"The third flaw is in the second dan. When one cultivates it, one's zhenqi will flow, thus inducing inner demons …"
"The fourth flaw is in the third dan …"
"The fifth flaw is in the fifth …"
…
Unable to be bothered to waste his breath on the other party, Zhang Xuan went through all nine flaws in a single breath.
These were all reflected in the Library of Heaven's Path, so all he had to do was to recite them.
"… This is the ninth flaw. What do you think? Am I right about these nine places? "
"T-this …"
The silhouette shuddered for a moment before putting away the river of words in the air. Nodding his head, he said, "Not bad, you are correct!"
At this moment, he was incomparably shocked.
There were more than ten thousand words in this cultivation technique. Even he would require several hours to fully comprehend it. Yet, with just a glance, the other party was able to point out the flaws in it. Furthermore, it was exactly the same as what Kong Shi had said back then … His eye of discernment was truly fearsome!
This talent was on par with Kong Shi back then!
"Do you believe that I can help you improve your cultivation technique now?"
Zhang Xuan.
"I do."
The silhouette hesitated for a moment before nodding his head.
Given how the other party was able to see through the flaws in the cultivation technique with a single glance, it was likely that he would really be able to correct it.
"It's good that you believe me. Right, I have something that I would like to ask you. Two years ago, did a group of master teachers come here? May I know if they are still alive or dead? "
Zhang Xuan asked.
"Two years ago, there were indeed people who came here. However, they didn't leave the Unbounded World within the stipulated time, so I didn't impart any cultivation technique to them. Instead, I allowed them to leave. However, they didn't heed my advice and continued onward … My consciousness is only here, so I'm not too sure about the situation at the later stages! "
The silhouette shook his head.
Even though he was left behind by the creator of the ancient domain back then, he was no different from a puppet guarding the trial. He could only manage the trial, and he was unable to peer into the situation at the later stages.
"Alright then …"
Hearing the explanation, Zhang Xuan came to a realization.
He had thought that he would be able to obtain some information from the other party, but from the looks of it, he still had to clear the trial one after another.
Just as Zhang Xuan was about to turn around and leave, the silhouette behind him suddenly said, "Since you know how to correct the flaws, can you tell me the correct cultivation technique?"
When he was left behind, he hadn't resolved the flaws yet. As such, even though he knew the problem, he was unable to resolve it.
Even though he wouldn't be able to stay for too long, if he could listen to the correct cultivation technique, his life wouldn't have been in vain.
Knowing the truth in the morning, one can die in peace in the evening.
"You wish to know how to correct the flaws?"
Zhang Xuan halted his footsteps and turned to look at the silhouette.
"Yes!" The silhouette nodded. "I'll be grateful if you can hear it!"
The other party was able to see through the flaws in his cultivation technique with a single glance, so he didn't dare to say anything about imparting the cultivation technique to the other party anymore. He only hoped that he could learn the corrected cultivation technique before he disappeared.
With a light chuckle, Zhang Xuan placed his hands behind his back, and an indescribable aura emanated from him, reminiscent of a deity who had descended from the nine heavens.
"Acknowledge me as your teacher, and I'll impart it to you!"
