From dual spiritual roots to a sword master with all attributes

Although it was just a clone, Fang Xiao always felt a strange feeling every time he killed it with his sword.

However, it will not have any impact on his state of mind.

As the replica dissipated, the surrounding environment also gradually faded away.

The empty environment and fulfilling cultivation, everything is returning to oneself.

And his hands still maintained the posture of drawing the sword.

However, only one-third of the blade of the inherited sword was unsheathed.

After that, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remove it at all.

Obviously, the number of unsheathed swords represents how many levels of tests Fang Xiao has passed.

This one-third is proof that you have passed the first test.

“Good job, kid.

Although he is not the fastest among all the successors.

But the realm you are in is far higher than that of others, which is something they cannot compare to."

Because of the Hunyuan Sword Body, the sword spirit has great confidence in Fang Xiao.

However, other people basically participated in the test when they first started learning kendo.

That looks like Fang Xiao.

Not only is he in the ninth realm of swordsmanship, he is also far superior to others in the same realm.

Therefore, his test can be said to be the most difficult one ever.

This also caused some concerns in the sword spirit's heart.

But even so, Fang Xiao was still able to firmly defeat the clone and successfully passed the test.

This made the sword spirit re-examine Fang Xiao. Perhaps the potential of the Hunyuan Sword Body was far greater than it saw.

However, Fang Xiao did not respond to the sword spirit's words.

This is because the inherited sword at this moment is transmitting the first stage of Tianjian Mountain's inheritance to him.

He carefully read the contents of the inheritance and grasped its essence.

All I can say is that it is worthy of being the sword-fighting inheritance that the entire Tianhuang world is scrambling for.

Even though it was only at a low level, Fang Xiao gained a lot from the sword principles contained therein.

Many things that I couldn’t understand before are now clear to me.

Many misunderstandings have now been corrected.

It even allowed Fang Xiao to come into contact with areas that he had never been exposed to before.

However, just as he was eagerly absorbing the essence of it, the inheritance came to an abrupt halt and ended.

Fang Xiao looked at the inherited sword in astonishment, only to find that the one-third of the sword blade that had been pulled out had returned to the scabbard at some point.

It's like sharing a secret halfway and then suddenly stopping, which makes people scratch their heads and can't stop.

At this moment, the voice of the sword spirit also arrived at the right time.

"Hahaha, this expression is something I never get tired of seeing."

"Senior, the first stage of inheritance has come to an end."

Fang Xiao wanted to let go of the follow-up and couldn't help but ask.

“That’s right, the first stage of Tianjian Mountain’s inheritance only contains techniques for practicing the first four realms.

If you still want to obtain subsequent inheritance, you must complete these four levels of practice and forge a martial soul.

Only then can you continue to participate in the second test."

"So, in this second test, you can use your martial spirit, and it's no longer just hand-to-hand combat like before."

Fang Xiao made this reasonable speculation, and the sword spirit did not deny it.

"That's right, but it's only limited to the second level. I'm afraid you won't have the chance to participate in the third level test.

I can tell you the specific reason after you pass the second test."

Obviously, although Fang Xiao passed the first test, he only lifted some of the restrictions on the sword spirit.

There was nothing he could do about it.

We can only take one step at a time.

At least if we can get some inheritance from Tianjian Mountain, we will get some benefits.

If you want to get more, you have to forge your martial soul.

Thinking of this, Fang Xiao couldn't help but recall the words of the sword spirit before.

"Senior, what if I were to reverse the transformation of the two natal items, the Yuanshen Dao Sword and the Yanghun Gourd, into martial spirits?

Is it possible to directly ascend to the fourth realm of martial arts cultivation?"

Although each inherited martial art has its own martial spirit, he asked this question obviously considering the inheritance of Tianjian Mountain.

This inheritance is named 'Wansheng Tongxuan Sword Technique'.

The word "Wansheng" is not reflected in the current inheritance.

Fang Xiao speculated that it should appear in the subsequent inheritance.

However, he discovered something about the meaning of "Tongxuan".

Road to Road, very Avenue.

Famous, very famous.

Nothingness is the beginning of heaven and earth.

Existence is the mother of all things.

Therefore, I always try to be in a state of nothingness, in order to observe its wonders.

It is always there, and I want to observe its edge.

These two, from the same source but with different names,

Together they are called "Xuan".

Mysterious and mystical, the door to all wonders.

"Tongxuan" means that everything can enter the mystery and also enter the Tao.

In short, the 'Wansheng Tongxuan Sword Technique' only points out the direction of practice.

As for forging the 'Sword Soul', there are no fixed requirements at all.

Although the way of kendo is the same, different people have very different understandings of it.

Therefore, what kind of 'Sword Soul' can be achieved in the end depends entirely on each person's ideas.

Fang Xiao didn't know what others were thinking, but he knew one thing.

Since martial artists focus on cultivating the 'spiritual', the mind and soul are of paramount importance.

You know, after the sixth level, unless there are special circumstances, the mind and soul are in the fusion stage.

That is the 'true spirit' form.

The two natal treasures are the Yuanshen Dao Sword and the Yanghun Gourd, one can kill gods and the other can nourish souls.

Just like a sword and its scabbard, they are two sides of the same coin.

As a martial spirit, isn't it the most suitable existence?

After all, the 'Wansheng Tongxuan Sword Art' didn't say that one couldn't have two martial spirits.

If he were to start from scratch and forge a brand new martial soul, Fang Xiao really couldn't think of what kind of martial soul would be better.

And the most important thing is.

The Yuanshen Dao Sword and the Soul-Nourishing Gourd are Dao weapons that have already been refined into Dao tracks.

If it could be transformed into a martial soul, perhaps it would be possible to jump directly into the sixth level.

This is an alternative way to break the iron rule that you cannot practice multiple things at the same time.

Fang Xiao then told his idea to the sword spirit and asked it to help him analyze it to see if this idea was feasible.

However, after listening to his series of ideas, the sword spirit neither agreed nor disagreed, but burst into laughter.

Then he asked back.

"That's a nice thought, kid, but you only know that the three paths of 'spirit, energy, and spirit' must be cultivated simultaneously. But do you know why they can't be cultivated at the same time?"

After hearing these words, Fang Xiao was stunned.

Blade and Soul’s question hits the nail on the head.

He really only knew that the three paths could not be practiced simultaneously, and he had tried it himself.

However, he still didn't know why he failed.

"This... I really don't know, please enlighten me, senior."

However, the sword spirit never gave a direct answer to Fang Xiao's doubts.

"Let me ask you, whether you're a physical cultivator focusing on the physical body, a martial cultivator focusing on the martial spirit, or a Qi cultivator like you, what's the key to your cultivation?"

He just kept asking questions.
