The Five Rings, the Dome, was filled with vitality!
A hundred years had passed since the battle with the Buddhist alliance, and the entire Five Rings had changed greatly! The Sword Vein was no exception!
To be able to dominate the universe, it was impossible for them to remain stagnant. This was especially so when the battle this time was fought in a rather sullen manner. The external announcement of the victory was for the sake of publicity. Behind closed doors, each and every sect was desperately trying to find the reason why the battle had turned out so badly.
After nearly twenty thousand years of hard work, they had been successful in every endeavor. However, when it was time to use them, they had not been able to display their full potential. What exactly went wrong? This was the question that every sect and cultivator was thinking about!
No one knew the result of their consideration. This was a core secret of the upper echelons of the sect. However, there were some obvious changes in the sect. For example, in the Dome, a new Sword Vein had been added — the Coiling Sword Vein!
This was not a completely baseless gimmick, but the result of careful consideration! There was also a considerable number of Coiling Sword Swordsman. In fact, they were the two hundred Heaven's Chosen Men that Lou Xiaoyi had brought back, the people of Zhou Xian!
They were able to integrate into the big family of Xuanyuan not only because of their novel swordsmanship, but also because of the great effort they had put in for Qing Kong and the Five Rings!
The three hundred Swordsman of the Sword Soldiers had returned, and a hundred of them had died in battle. The blood they shed had won them the respect of all the Xuanyuan Swordsman!
The most important thing was that what they had learned was the legacy of their ancestors. Therefore, it could not be said that they had joined. More accurately, they had returned. A wanderer returning to his home, a swallow returning to its nest. This place was supposed to be their home!
It was like the descendants of a large family going to a faraway place. However, their surname and bloodline were still the same!
Therefore, there was no problem with the fusion!
The problem was that the fusion was too smooth. Now, almost all the Outer Swordsman of the Dome wanted to join the Coiling Sword Vein. Because this way, they would be infinitely closer to the strength of a true Inner Swordsman!
Actually, the Coiling Sword should also be called the Inner Sword. However, it was not coiled in the Niwan Palace, but in the Dantian.
Qianxiu Peak's Sword Qi soared to the heavens, and a pavilion master from the Pavilion flew into a rage. However, he still couldn't stop this situation from changing. Humans strive for greater heights, and water flows downward. Previously, he had chosen to use the external sword because there was no other way. If he couldn't obtain the sword pellet, how could he learn the internal sword?
Now that he could insert the Coiling Sword into his body on top of the Outer Swords, it was equivalent to opening a new window for the huge Outer Swords. How could he possibly control this thought of seeking change?
It wasn't just Foundation Establishment Jin Dan who was trying to wield the sword. Even True Monarch Yuanying was secretly trying it out. They were all trying to become stronger, and there was no way to stop such thoughts!
In fact, the Dome Sect had already organized a group of cultivators to study the way of wielding the sword as early as eight to nine hundred years ago. Although there were results, it was difficult for them to make up their minds because it might change the overall structure of the Xuanyuan Sword School forever!
The inheritance of the Outer Swords might disappear. Once the Coiling Sword was promoted on a large scale, even if the Inner Swords still had the upper hand in terms of individual combat power, their advantage would be far less obvious than before. In addition, there were more than ten times the number of Inner and Outer Swords. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the Dome Sect was going to change.
Therefore, they couldn't make up their minds. They couldn't blame the higher-ups of Xuanyuan for not having the courage. To change the tens of thousands of years of tradition required a lot of responsibility, and it wasn't something that a few Yang Gods could shoulder. The problem was that in such a crucial direction of the school's inheritance, Xuanyuan's few powerful half-immortals were still unable to pass down instructions. This caused the reform to drag on.
There were two reasons for the great changes in the Dome Sect!
One was the group of Swordsman warriors brought back by Lou Xiaoyi. They proved the vitality of the Coiling Sword with their actual existence. At least in terms of Kung Fu and Taoism, it was feasible and mature! It could directly lead to the Great Tao!
Another reason was this war. Although it was just the beginning of the chaos in the universe, the sword cultivators had suffered great losses. In order to increase their survival and fighting ability to the maximum, the sect had officially introduced the Coiling Sword lineage into the sect. It was inevitable that they would do so!
The six Yang Gods decided to officially establish the Coiling Sword in the Dome Sect and open it to all Outer Swordsman!
This caused a huge uproar! For tens of thousands of years, the glorious image of Outer Swords carrying sword sheaths had always been the main target of ridicule for Inner Swordsman. Outer Swords dreamed of refining their own Flying Swords into their bodies, no matter where it was. Even if they hid it in their anus, it would be fine. At most, they would have their backs facing the enemy when they fought in the future …
Now they could store swords in their Dantian? Could they also emit sword light? Or could they choose between physical swords and Sword Qi? They no longer had to worry about their Flying Swords being destroyed by their opponents. They no longer had to worry about whether their opponents were releasing acid rain when they attacked. They no longer had to carry hundreds of swords on their backs as replacements? They no longer had to go bankrupt for the resources of each Flying Sword. They only had to focus on one sword, and that was their entire life!
How could they resist such temptation?
The two hundred Swordsman in the Sword Soldier Legion became very popular. Everyone wanted to be taught the most direct experience and practical guidance. Of course, in terms of foundation, these Swordsman were far inferior to Dome Sect Swordsman. Not to mention Inner Swords, they couldn't even compare to Outer Swords because their foundation was mostly unorthodox!
However, they had the experience that the Dome Sect Swords valued the most — How to Coiling Sword!
A year after the official introduction of the Coiling Sword, three Outer Swords Yang Gods, led by Gong Yao, proposed in a high-level meeting that the Coiling Sword should be included in the management of the Sword Qi Rushing Heaven Pavilion. To put it bluntly, it was a merger of Outer Swords and Coiling Sword!
They couldn't disagree, because if they continued like this, they would become a commander without an army in a few years!
In fact, they wouldn't even be a commander without an army, because the three old Yang Gods had also created Coiling Swords, and now they didn't carry sword cases! Coiling Sword was not difficult for them!
Under the difficult tug-of-war, the Inner Swords had a deep sense of righteousness. They couldn't not understand, because they couldn't stop the trend. The Coiling Sword was destined to rise, and it couldn't be stopped. It was better to incorporate it into the system early!
The spring of Xuanyuan Outer Swords had come!
The Sword Qi Rushing Heaven Pavilion was divided into two factions, Coiling Sword and Outer Swords. For the time being, there were still stubborn old people who didn't want to let go of Outer Swords. However, it was foreseeable that as time passed, Outer Swords would gradually be preserved only at the basic stage. The higher the realm, the fewer Outer Swords there would be. It would be until Jin Dan's Yuanying that everyone put Outer Swords into their bodies!
This was a great change in the orthodoxy. Seeking new things and changes was always the greatest driving force for the development of human cultivation! It was also the greatest driving force for the development of society!
Xuanyuan belonged to the category of following the trend. In Gong Yao's words, they would change as powerful as they were. In the future, if there was a new breakthrough in Outer Swords, everyone would change back together!
Of course, there were those who followed the trend of the times, and those who adhered to tradition, such as Weijian Mountain!
It wasn't that Xuanyuan was reluctant to give up the secret technique, but that Weijian Mountain was as arrogant as before! In their opinion, their Outer Swords were not much worse than Xuanyuan's Inner Swords. Even if they became Coiling Swords, they wouldn't be much stronger. Why should they follow the crowd?
There were changes and perseverance. This was the complete cultivation world!
