"Fusion of profound meanings!"
Xiao Yun fell into thought at those words. The Lightning Divine Sword from earlier surfaced in his mind. Indeed, those profound meanings had seemed to meld together into a single whole, indistinguishable from one another. So they had been fused.
It was not enough to comprehend profound meanings; one also had to fuse them.
This fusion of profound meanings was the greatest difficulty.
Xiao Yun looked at Lei Zhan opposite him and asked again, "Senior, people say that it is difficult for us sword cultivators to attain the Dao. What exactly is the difference between the Sword Dao and other Daos? Why is it so hard to attain the Dao through it?"
Lei Zhan smiled. "Because the Daos comprehended by others have no profound meanings. Or rather, the Daos they comprehend are themselves profound meanings."
Xiao Yun frowned. What did that mean?
Lei Zhan continued, "Take speed, for example. Speed is merely one profound meaning within the Thunder Sword Dao, but in truth, it is also a Dao. A cultivator can entirely rely on the Dao of 'speed' to attain the Great Emperor realm. Thus, their Dao is the profound meaning, and the profound meaning is the Dao. They only need to comprehend one Dao, one profound meaning. They do not even need to fuse anything."
Xiao Yun suddenly understood, then gave a bitter smile. "So that is how it is. We need to comprehend several profound meanings and fuse them together. The difficulty is several times greater than theirs. No wonder it is so hard for the Sword Dao to attain the Dao."
Lei Zhan smiled faintly and shook his head. "Saying it is several times harder is somewhat exaggerated. Although we need to comprehend several profound meanings, the profound meanings we comprehend are easier
