Lou Xiaoyi's cultivation began to get on the right track, on the fast track!
Every cultivator had to go through such a process in their growth. In the words of mortals, it was called enlightenment!
Entering the Dao was a watershed! It was the difference between sensing Qi and being slow, the difference between cultivators and mortals. However, this didn't mean that a cultivator's path would be smooth sailing. The next hurdle was Foundation Establishment!
After succeeding in Foundation Establishment, many people thought that the next hurdle was naturally Jin Dan, but such thinking was one-sided!
In reality, after a cultivator succeeded in Foundation Establishment, the biggest problem they faced was the problem of direction! How should they walk on their own path?
A hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators had a hundred paths. Which path belonged to them? What was the most suitable path for them? They should have an accurate judgment!
This wasn't just a question of cultivation methods, but also of skills. First, they had to have the means to protect themselves. This was a complicated system!
This had nothing to do with whether they joined a sect or not, or whether the sect was strong or weak! The sect would provide them with thousands of choices, but the final decision could only be made by them!
If they made the right choice and suited themselves, they would be on the fast track. Even if there were occasional setbacks, it wouldn't change the upward trend of Dafa!
If they made the wrong choice, they would bite off more than they could chew, they would be flashy but not practical. If they didn't start from their own point of view, they would strive for the bigger picture. Or if they followed behind others in everything, they would be fated to progress slowly. They would be stuck in a rut for their entire life. It was as if everything went against them, and fate would no longer favor them …
In reality, it was the wrong choice of their own Dao direction!
Lou Xiaoyi was very opinionated. Ever since he entered Xuanyuan, he didn't consider the mainstream as his only choice. This was the reason why the entire Star System was established to suit his characteristics. He didn't mindlessly choose the most Swordsman system just to become a qualified Swordsman!
Even if you learned the most Swordsman things, you wouldn't become a true Swordsman!
It wasn't until he found a way to produce a sword spirit and found the most perfect way to inscribe sword formations that it could be said that after ten years in Xuanyuan, he had stepped into his own rhythm in terms of both cultivation methods and skills!
If the rhythm was right, everything would go smoothly. Advancing bravely would be a cinch!
He was lucky and had his own thoughts. Therefore, all of this was both accidental and inevitable.
Would most Swordsman choose the colder Star System? Would he continue to wait for changes to appear and insist on not investing a huge amount of mental and physical resources in the engraving of sword formations?
If it was someone else, if they realized that their talent in sword formations was not enough, nine out of ten of them would work hard on it. If they did not have enough talent, they would work hard to make up for it. They would train hard and throw in resources. In the end, they would be able to reach or even surpass the average standard with their own efforts. However, they would spend a lot of time and resources in this kind of hard work. In the end, they would only be able to reach the average standard and not fall behind!
The direction of their efforts was wrong from the very beginning!
How much a wooden barrel could hold depended on the shortest piece. Everyone understood this principle, so everyone would fill the shortest piece!
But Swordsman was not a wooden barrel! Swordsman were famous in the universe not because they were good at everything, but because they were at the pinnacle of a certain aspect!
Swordsman were like this, and in fact, it was the same for magic cultivators. There was no need to set yourself up according to the mainstream and then develop yourself within this framework!
The correct way to go about it was to first understand your own strengths and where your advantages were, then persevere to expand this advantage. You might not reach the average standard because of your extremes, but once you succeed, you would definitely surpass the average standard and become a top-notch existence!
Time in the Realm of Nine Palaces was just as Jiu Lingjun said. The days were longer than the days before. Now that it was the end of the third year, every six hours he spent in the Realm of Nine Palaces was only two hours in the outside world. The benefit this brought him was that the time he spent with the three flying swords had greatly increased!
As a Swordsman, even if he was passionate about swords, he could not spend all his time on practicing swordsmanship! There would always be countless directions that required his attention, such as the main technique that determined his cultivation, supplementary techniques, how to earn resources to support his swords, certain interpersonal relationships, missions assigned by the sect, and so on.
Spending six to eight hours a day on swords was already the maximum limit. This was the reality of most Swordsman's cultivation.
Lou Xiaoyi spent at least twenty hours a day on swords, and this was all done through the Realm of Nine Palaces. This allowed his usage of flying swords to improve by leaps and bounds.
As the only main flying sword, the Four Seasons had already reached the level where he could control it with his thoughts. The communication with the Jue City Sword Spirit was progressing smoothly, and Lou Xiaoyi estimated that he would soon be able to re-engrave the sword formation with the Jue City Sword Spirit. The only reason he had not started was because he was a little tight on money. He had already engraved up to the fifth level of the sword formation for the Hidden Fragrance flying swords. This was practically his limit, and he did not plan to continue. The rest would be completed by the awakening of the Sword Spirit!
Spirit stones were spent like water. The Hidden Fragrance five level sword formation had almost emptied all his savings, and the Jue City Sword Spirit could not even begin the re-engraving of the sword formation!
This was also under the condition that he had the help of the Sword Spirit. If he were to inscribe sword formations like other sword cultivators, with his aptitude, even if he spent all his fortune on a flying sword, it was hard to say if he could reach the seventh or eighth level!
In fact, for a Swordsman with his experience, most of them would only have one flying sword at their level. If they were greedy, they would not be able to refine even one. This was not only a matter of time, but also a matter of resources.
He received a sword letter from the cigarette box Ling Ruofeng, inviting him to a gathering. However, this time, it was not the small circle from his original world, and there were many other Swordsman as well. The only thing that did not change was that they were all from the Outlands and were in the same faction.
This was one of the few invitations from Ling Ruofeng in the past ten years. Other than the first time, Lou Xiaoyi had been absent several times. This time, it would not be good for him to be absent again.
It was still the same Ring-shaped Mountain, but there were many people coming and going, and it was very lively. It seemed that Ling Ruofeng's small group had met many people in the past ten years. Everyone had gone from being in the dark when they first entered the sect to being able to handle it with ease now.
With more than ten years of experience in the dome, they could probably be considered half a veteran, right?
Lou Xiaoyi was not the only one who was improving. Everyone was improving!
It was still Ling Ruofeng who came up to him. He was the only one in the group who could still talk to Lou Xiaoyi. It was not because they were close, but because of Ling Ruofeng's temper. He was more like a person who rolled around in the mortal world. He liked this, and he had a natural ability to communicate with people.
"Little Yi, you're here? Come in quickly. There are many friends here today, and some are even experts in the sword. Little Yi, you should interact with them more. There will be a time when you can help in the future! "
When two people met, it was not good to call each other by their Dharma names. It was awkward. It was better to call each other by their names, and it would make them feel closer!
