Yang Ning's room was not large, and he did not use the Measuring Meso-Sumeru Technique.

This technique is actually quite extravagant. If Taiheng didn't have a Purple Heart Stone, it would never have become so abundant that even Qi Refining Stage cultivators could use it.

Yuan Jian pushed open the door and entered the small courtyard, only to find that he was living on a mountain where the air was somewhat thin. It seemed to be a mountain villa with a huge open area. The flat land was actually a whole rock, covered with countless sword and knife marks.

"This doesn't seem to have come from fighting, but from practicing swordsmanship!" Yuan Jian looked at the sword marks on the ground and tried to deduce them, and then came up with a Swordsmanship.

Unfortunately, it's not a legendary masterpiece, but it's still a decent Foundation Establishment Swordsmanship. It's fine for children to practice, but Yuan Jian has countless human-level, earth-level, and heaven-level sword Divine Ability, so naturally he won't need it.

"Is this the power of the Great Dao?!" He practiced his sword while feeling the power of the so-called Dao of Swords.

He could feel that all his sword Divine Ability, after being transformed from Immortal Power Sword Origin within his body, and then activated by the Sword Origin, experienced a qualitative leap in power.

It's that kind of leap from Heaven-grade Divine Ability to Peerless Divine Abilities!

Moreover, Yuan Jian could sense that when he unleashed his sword strike, a mysterious and unpredictable fluctuation accompanied it, adding to the power of his Divine Ability.

This is not due to the Sword Origin essence, but to the way of the sword.

The fact that it has become a prominent field of study in our time is not primarily due to the cultivation practices of its masters.

After all, if something is only strong in the hands of a powerful cultivator but weak in the hands of other cultivators, then very few people would be willing to cultivate it.

The reason why these twelve Great Daos are so powerful is that these seven Supreme Sage saints have incorporated the Great Daos into the rules of the Immortal Realm, which has given these twelve Great Daos the recognition of Heaven and Earth. From then on, even if a cultivator who practices this Dao knows nothing, as long as they are within the Immortal Realm, their use of these Divine Ability abilities will be enhanced.

It's like receiving a "20% increase in damage from sword Divine Ability and sword-type weapons" buff.

With the Heavenly Dao taking sides, how could this profession not be powerful?

In other worlds, challenging a spear with a sword is tantamount to suicide, but in the immortal realm, challenging a sword with a spear is suicide. It's just that unscientific and illogical.

But this is the Supreme Sage; they set the rules of heaven and earth. If they say a sword is stronger than a spear, then a sword is stronger than a spear.

Unfortunately, although this amplification was obvious, it was something that Yuan Jian, at his level, could not comprehend. Yuan Jian could detect the amplification of the Heavenly Dao, but he did not know what means the Heavenly Dao used to achieve this amplification. He could only practice his Divine Ability over and over again to adapt to the power, while trying to create his own sword divine Divine Ability.

He didn't know if Lin Qing would give it to him readily, but he still had to be prepared for the possibility that Lin Qing wouldn't. In that case, he should develop a set of sword Divine Ability to deal with the upcoming martial arts competition.

<Illusion Sword><Spirit Sword><Magic Sword><Destruction Sword Canon><Slaughter Sword Qi><Cihang Sword Scripture>

While swordsmanship is not mainstream in the lower realms, its elegance and charm, along with its high compatibility with the world of Xianxia (fantasy martial arts), have led countless sects and cultivators to dedicate their energy to it, resulting in the creation of numerous sword styles with different philosophies and ideas.

Yuan Jian had traveled through several great worlds and learned countless sword Divine Ability. Now, after summarizing all the sword Divine Ability, he discovered that although the development of swordsmanship was as brilliant as the stars, in the final analysis, it only followed three paths.

First: One sword gives rise to myriad laws

This approach emphasizes using the way of the sword, where Sword Qi energy gives rise to all things, such as rain, dew, lightning, wind, wood, thunder, and fire. The sword is used to interpret the myriad things in heaven and earth and the principles of nature. The way of the sword is merely a means for them to pursue nature.

The limit of this path is the world of swords.

A typical example is the "Lang Fanyun Fuyu Sword" and the flashy sword techniques in the Demon Slayer world.

Second: One sword can break all laws.

This approach emphasizes that no matter how many paths you take, I will only go one way. With a celestial sword in my mouth and a breath of Spiritual Qi in my chest, I will forge an unparalleled sword intent that will kill gods and Buddhas alike.

The ultimate limit of this path is to shatter all laws with a single sword strike.

Typical examples include Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuixue, Dugu Qiubai, and those swordsmen in the One Piece world who just slash and hack regardless of the opponent's moves.

Third: Sword Heart Clarity

This path of sword cultivation is also a path of self-cultivation. The realm of swordsmanship is the Spirit Realm. It emphasizes that one's heart and actions should be as clear as a mirror, with every word and deed guided by a calm mind. The sword heart should be clear, and knowledge and action should be unified. One's own heart and one's own path should be in perfect harmony. Drawing the sword is not for killing, but for practicing one's own ideals.

A typical example is the many swordsmen in "Qin Shi Ming Yue". They also practice swordsmanship, but their swordsmanship is highly integrated with their own philosophy. Swordsmen no longer kill for the sake of killing, but to verify their own philosophy and path.

These three paths intersect and occasionally cross paths, but their destinations are not in the same place, so it is difficult for a person or a sword manual to master all three.

Yuan Jian had not previously majored in swordsmanship, nor did he know which path suited him best. However, given his exceptional talent, it was not impossible for him to cultivate all three paths simultaneously!

Yuan Jian had become accustomed to doing his best whenever he embarked on a particular path.

Now that you've become Sword Cultivator, whether it was voluntary or forced, you have to accept what's done.

What we need to do next is not to wallow in self-pity, but to go further down this path!

"Then let's try cultivating the three paths together!"

Yuan Jian sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and meditated. Since he was going to create a new method, he naturally needed a quiet environment.

The sword, which gives rise to all laws, naturally generates all laws and naturally merges with all laws. Yuan Jian selected several supernatural Divine Ability from [Electromagnetic Force], [Great Celestial Phenomenon Art], and [Great Dragon Physiognomy], extracting the parts containing the myriad things of heaven and earth, and then combined them with [Great Insight Technique]. Thus, a sword scripture suitable for comprehending heaven and earth and integrating with nature was born.

Electromagnetic Force encompasses most of the content of natural physics, while the Great Celestial Phenomenon Art includes all natural phenomena such as wind, thunder, rain, snow, ice, and frost. Combining the two, although we are still far from creating a world, we are not far off. We can continue to absorb knowledge from them.

As for the name of this sword manual, Yuan Jian named it "[Senluo Sword Dao]", which means all things in the universe and implies that it encompasses the infinite and has infinite possibilities.

The principle of "one sword can break through all laws" can also draw nourishment from [Electromagnetic Force], [Great Celestial Phenomenon Art], and [Great Dragon Physiognomy], but this time it takes a path of brute force to achieve miracles.

Moreover, the phrase "one sword breaks all laws" emphasizes the act of breaking through, revealing weaknesses, and seeing through flaws. Therefore, the [Great Insight Technique] is of paramount importance and must be combined with the [Great Destiny Technique] to observe the opponent's Qi flow and find the opportunity for a fatal blow.

Regarding the concept of "one sword can break all laws," Yuan Jian pursues the ability not only to kill people, but also to kill objects, and even to kill concepts. All things in the world with a name are within the scope of breaking laws!

The sword manual was named by Yuan Jian as [Zhuxian Sword Dao]. Zhu Xian Sword is a celestial sword that can destroy heaven and earth and restore the earth, wind, water, and fire. The fact that Yuan Jian named this sword path after it shows his ambition.

Yuan Jian had some ideas about the path of sword heart enlightenment, but after much thought, he decided to put it aside for the time being.

His idea was too blasphemous; it might have a slight chance of being realized in the mortal realm, but in the immortal realm, the chances were slim.

But what makes us human is our ability to turn the impossible into the possible!

So after much deliberation, Yuan Jian finally created the way of the sword.

The sword path is called [Datong Sword Dao]. Although Yuan Jian knows that this is probably just a dream, even if he reaches the highest point of this world and becomes Supreme Sage, he may not be able to achieve it.

But what if!
