Fang Xiao's Dao Slaying talent had, in truth, come from the Primordial Sword Body.
According to Taibai Ancestor, under normal circumstances, one needed to reach the Sixth Order in Body Refining cultivation before it could possibly be activated.
The reason Fang Xiao had been able to grasp it ahead of time was actually because it had been projected in advance through the Small World.
Of course, the birth of the Small World and the Primordial Chaos Sword Dao had also owed much to the Dao patterns of the Primordial Sword Body.
Thus, the two had mutually brought each other to fruition.
And in the years since Fang Xiao had broken through to the Void Refining Stage, he had done far more than merely refine Dao Tracks.
Although his Qi Refining cultivation had been constrained by resources, making further advancement difficult in a short time,
his physical body and soul, still at the peak of the Fifth Order, could yet continue to rise.
Thus, strictly speaking, Fang Xiao's cultivation in all three aspects—essence, qi, and spirit—had reached the Sixth Order.
Naturally, the one that had grasped a Dao Track was still the Qi Refining path, the one most eager to break through into Void Refining.
Yet the breakthrough of his physical body had not come without gains.
The Primordial Sword Body, which had already been stirred through the Small World, was further awakened as a result.
Now, the strength of his Dao Slaying talent could be said to have surged several steps in succession.
Against Void Refining cultivators like Xuan Zhongtian, who had mastered Dao Track Projections, every slash struck true.
Though he had not yet reached the point of completely severing a Dao Track Projection, early Void Refining cultivators could virtually no longer use Dao Track Projections before Fang Xiao.
