In front of Lou Xiaoyi, there were two important directions. One was how to eliminate the deep-rooted influence of Buddhism on the small continent, and the other was how to set a direction for the Swordsman to improve themselves.
As for the former, he was not prepared to interfere. He would leave it to his Jin Dan subordinates to take care of their own areas. He could not underestimate this group of fellows. They were all experienced and knowledgeable cultivators who took pride in roaming the world. After so many years of dealing with Buddhism, each of them had some tricks up their sleeves. If he let them do it, it might not be any worse than if he did it himself.
His main focus was still on martial arts. He needed to carefully organize his swordsmanship system, list out a skill tree, and then remove the part about Xuanyuan and the part about Xiao Yao You. Then, he would see how much was left.
The result was very awkward. The skill tree was no longer a skill tree, and only a few broken branches were left!
After pondering for a few days, he realized that no matter how much he added, it was impossible to recreate this skill tree without the support of Xuanyuan and Xiao Yao. He could not use random things to make up the numbers, or it would affect the overall effect. This only proved that his current knowledge, skills, and experience were not enough to create a system!
His current height was because he was standing on the shoulders of giants. When the giants were gone, his height would not be worth mentioning!
Furthermore, he was only at the Jin Dan realm. He was clueless about the realms above the Jin Dan realm. If he were to create a system now, there was a high possibility that it would be overthrown when he reached the next realm!
The conclusion was that the creation of a swordsmanship system should be a problem that could only be considered by a Supreme.
Lou Xiaoyi felt that it was better to be realistic. Increasing the strength of a Swordsman from a single point of view would be more effective and more targeted. Furthermore, the roots of these hundred Swordsman were too heterogeneous. It was a mess from the very beginning!
He needed to study the skills of the Yaoying Sword Palace. After all, the Yaoying Sword Palace was the only skill that he could use openly, and it could directly lead to the Great Dao. After a round, he came back!
He was very happy that he was able to maintain a good relationship with the old Swordsman. Who knows, he might even have to ask the old Swordsman to give them a lesson!
A few days later, a hundred and thirty-three Swordsman gathered at the Shadow Sword Palace, including the ten from Xiao Yao and the few from Yaoying Sword Palace … There were only two people on the main stage, Lou Xiaoyi and Old Yuanying.
Lou Xiaoyi coughed softly. "I know that there are two reasons why all of you are gathered here. The first is for the sake of the Sword Vein's legacy. The second reason is very straightforward. You want to become stronger. But if you think about it carefully, the second reason is more important!
You're all people who don't wake up early without benefits, so I won't talk about responsibilities and ideals with you. If I talk about these things with you, it's very likely that I have nothing left to teach you. "
Everyone laughed. Senior Martial Brother Shan's opening speech was very much to their liking. There were no empty words. For cultivators like them who wandered the world alone, they hated these kinds of things.
"There's nothing in this world that comes for free! Yaoying's legacy is like that, and so is my swordsmanship. So if you want to learn it, you have to think about the price you have to pay!
It could be life! Only life is worth me imparting my knowledge to you! It's hard to get off my boat once you get on it! This is not a threat, but it's more than a threat! "
Everyone listened attentively. Actually, this was what they were thinking. They also did not believe that Senior Martial Brother Shan would be so noble as to be willing to give up everything he had just to help a declining Sword Vein. He must have a motive, but what was it? No one knew!
Life was not the most important thing to them. To be able to wander the world alone and face life on their own, it was impossible for them to do so. With their strength, joining a Sword Vein was very easy. If they chose to wander, there must be a reason for it!
Because they felt that the skills of the Sword Vein were not enough for them to exchange their freedom. But now, Senior Martial Brother Shan's swordsmanship was worth it. Even if they could not learn all of it, as long as they learned a part of it, it would be enough for them to be reborn!
"I don't know when I will need you to pay the price! It could be decades, or centuries, or even longer. If you can't reach the upper level of Yuanying, you may not be able to wait your entire life! I only need you to remember this!
Before that, you will still have the freedom to come and go in the Yaoying Sword Palace. I don't care what method you use to get rid of the Buddhist beliefs, but within a hundred years, I hope to see a simple Yaoying Little Lu, and not a street full of people chanting 'Amitabha'! "
The more they heard, the more shocked they were at Senior Martial Brother Shan's grand scheme! Waiting for them to become Yuanying before they could be of use? That meant that this was no longer a simple dispute within the realm. What was it?
Lou Xiaoyi stopped before going too far. If he said too much, he would be exposed. Now was the best time to let people think that he was just trying to establish a unique Swordsman orthodoxy. This was not unusual among the three thousand side sects in the upper realm of Zhou Xian. Although the upper realm of Zhou Xian was more stable, the real stability was the Nine Great Upper Sects. The three thousand side sects changed frequently. There would always be a new force emerging, and there would always be sects that would gradually decline.
"Regarding the cultivation in the Yaoying Sword Palace, I will divide it into two aspects!
Firstly, regarding the cultivation method. Everyone's cultivation method came from different sources. It is possible that some people's cultivation method came from the Upper Sects and has a foundation, but most people's cultivation method is probably not up to standard!
To be able to rely on your cultivation method to reach this level, you are all one in a million geniuses! But there is no such thing as a genius forever. If you rely on your cultivation method to reach the next level, the chances are not high!
Today is a chance to reconnect with your fundamental cultivation method. The Yaoying Sword Palace's Quenching Jade Technique is a direct path to Dao. It is up to you whether you want to learn it or not. What I want to remind you is that if you want to change your cultivation method, the sooner the better. You are all cultivators with hundreds of years of experience, you do not need anyone to teach you this.
Every morning, Taoist Master Mao will talk for half a day in the Yaoying Sword Palace. He can help you understand this Quenching Jade Technique at the fastest speed, and also build a stronger foundation for you! "
This was the foundation. The higher the level, the more important it was. Not only was it related to the upper realm, it was also related to the cultivation of swordsmanship. There were many things that could not be done without a strong foundation. For example, the condensation of mana and the strength of one's spirit.
They were all mature Jin Dan. He could not force them. He only gave a suggestion. If they insisted, then no one could do anything about it.
They still had a lot of time. Most of these Jin Dan had at least two to three hundred years of life left. There was still time to change their cultivation method. The key was whether they had the determination to change themselves.
