Lu Xiaotian stood quietly in the Stone Mulberry Forest outside the Golden Silkworm Wolf Spider's lair. Lu Xiaotian stood quietly under the tall Stone Mulberry Tree. He was inconspicuous. The wind blew, causing the mulberry leaves to rustle.
Since entering the Stone Demon Cave, Lu Xiaotian had been to many places. Most of the places in the Stone Demon Cave were dim yellow. From time to time, there would be strange phenomena of flying sand and stones. The Stone Spirit Mulberry trees here intertwined with each other, providing shade and some vitality under the dim yellow light. It was a pretty good place. At the very least, compared to many other places, the Golden Silkworm Wolf Spider was a relatively good place.
After half a day, Xiang Qingcheng also came out. He walked around and familiarized himself with the environment. Seeing that Lu Xiaotian had been standing there quietly without any movement, Xiang Qingcheng was slightly surprised. However, as a cultivator, Xiang Qingcheng did not disturb him.
At this moment, Lu Xiaotian was naturally aware of the outside world. However, there was something strange in his body. After his cultivation level increased, Lu Xiaotian's auxiliary primordial spirit, which had been comprehending the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet, seemed to have understood something. Just like before, Lu Xiaotian directly switched his auxiliary primordial spirit to his main primordial spirit. At this moment, the eight auxiliary primordial spirits in his body were not as strong as his main primordial spirit. At this moment, he finally understood the sword essence from the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet. Lu Xiaotian was afraid that his auxiliary primordial spirit would not be able to fully comprehend the changes in the sword form. He quickly switched to his main primordial spirit. Relatively speaking, the stronger the primordial spirit, the more subtle changes one could feel.
The Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet, which had not changed for decades, moved again. Lu Xiaotian could not help but feel a little excited.
"Buzz!" In the vast space of the stone tablet, a small sword wrapped in a transparent light shield flew through the gray sky. It was extremely fast. It was the image of the Ethereal Sword Embryo.
The sword embryo flickered in the air. One sword after another slashed through the void. Every time the sword embryo moved, its trajectory seemed to be natural. Even with Lu Xiaotian's eyesight, he could not find any flaws.
The Ethereal Sword Embryo shook in the air and split into countless flying swords. They fell like rain, almost covering the entire sky.
This was the Illusory Rain Sword Form that Lu Xiaotian had first comprehended from the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet. It was followed by the sword form. Then it evolved into a sword formation and then the Ethereal Sword Embryo.
Looking at the strange movements of these flying swords, Lu Xiaotian could not help but have an illusion. Although they were using the same sword style, the power was clearly stronger than before. Lu Xiaotian instinctively followed suit, but he was still far behind.
"Could it be that there is something fishy about this?" Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but be a little puzzled. But at a glance, Lu Xiaotian couldn't figure out why.
If he could not detect any abnormalities from the beginning to the end, he might really gain nothing. Lu Xiaotian was not discouraged. He focused his mind and calmly observed every movement and change of the Misty Sword Embryo. He was afraid that he would miss any detail. Every time the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet demonstrated the Sword Principle, the process would not be too long.
As time passed, the Ethereal Sword Embryo that appeared in the space of the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet reached the end of the Sword Principle. After the last few slashes, it disappeared. Lu Xiaotian's body suddenly froze. In the last few slashes of the Ethereal Sword Embryo, he felt something that he had never felt before. There seemed to be a faint ripple on the Ethereal Sword Embryo. Lu Xiaotian even suspected that it was his illusion. From the beginning to the end of the Sword Principle that the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet had deduced, he had only caught a slight change. If it was really his illusion, he had gained nothing this time.
"What is the ripple-like thing on the Sword Embryo?" Lu Xiaotian's consciousness moved. He took out his Ethereal Flying Sword and combined it in the air. He repeated the process of the Sword Principle that the Sword Comprehension Stone Tablet had deduced. At the same time, Lu Xiaotian kept thinking about the meaning of the slight change.
Lu Xiaotian repeated the sword form, the sword formation, and the changes of the Sword Embryo. Lu Xiaotian imitated its trajectory. If the first time was not enough, he repeated it twice. If the second time was not enough, he repeated it a hundred times or a thousand times.
Towards the end, Lu Xiaotian did not remember how many times he had repeated it. He was deep in thought, but he still did not understand the main point. However, he knew that the Ethereal Sword Embryo or the sword formation that he had just taken out was not its real power. When he was in the Jin Dan Realm in the Ethereal Hall, the ethereal and elegant Sword Embryo had a kind of domineering aura. Wherever the Sword Edge pointed, nothing could not be broken. Wherever the Sword Aura passed, it was like a domain. Nobody could challenge its majesty. Even the Xuan Yan Ghost King, a peerless powerhouse who could easily destroy an immortal city, was not a match for the Ethereal Sword Embryo.
"That's right, domain!" He inadvertently thought of the Ethereal Venerable's Sword Embryo's invincible majesty. Everything under the Sword Embryo was a Sword Domain! Within the Sword Domain, nothing could not be broken.
Lu Xiaotian's eyes suddenly lit up. Once a technique was understood, a hundred techniques could be understood. At this moment, he realized why the power and reputation of a Great Cultivator was far above that of a Nascent Soul Realm middle stage, although there was only a difference of one realm between a Great Cultivator and a Nascent Soul Realm middle stage.
In the past, when he faced a Great Cultivator, he could also feel the faintly discernible pressure. Even Guru Zi Qing and the Golden Armored Corpse King, who were at the lower end of the twelfth level, felt the same. It was just that his Primordial Spirit was not much different from these Great Cultivators, so he felt less pressure. For others who were at the same realm as Lu Xiaotian, but whose Primordial Spirit was far inferior to Lu Xiaotian's, it might not be the same. The prestige of a Great Cultivator was built on absolute strength. Even if they did not make a move, they could still make Nascent Soul Realm early stage and middle stage Nascent Soul Realm middle stage feel a faintly discernible pressure.
Over time, in the cultivation world, when ordinary Nascent Soul Realm cultivators mentioned Great Cultivators, there would be a subconscious feeling.
Perhaps this kind of pressure was a domain. Moreover, different cultivators practiced different cultivation methods. Even the difference in personality brought about by this kind of pressure would be different. The killing intent and deterrence on a person's body also belonged to a type of domain. For example, Lu Xiaotian had killed countless demonic beasts, and the number of Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses he had killed was more than the number of his fingers. In the past, Lu Xiaotian's killing intent was extremely shocking. However, Lu Xiaotian practiced the Seven Floor Pagoda, had the Demon Subduing Pagoda in his body, and had increased his realm. After so many years, it had been diluted by a lot. Lu Xiaotian would occasionally release his aura to suppress others. This was also a kind of the most superficial domain. Strictly speaking, it was not completely considered a domain. A true domain was absolute control over an area of space.
