Wang Hao truly learned something new this time; the Fairy Yushu appeared to be only in her early twenties, but in reality, she was already over two hundred.
What shocked him most was that she was a virgin who seemed to have suffered emotional trauma in her youth, which was why she never married.
As for the Daoist Qingsong, he was an orphan he adopted and later became his godson.
Of course, he simply listened to these Bagua and then ignored them, turning his attention back to Zhu Wudao.
Although a confrontation had just taken place, Zhu Wudao paid no attention to it and continued to diligently cultivate his Foundation Establishment Saber Art. For this serious attitude alone, he deserves praise.
Upon Wang Hao's arrival, Wheel-Turning King and the others tactfully relinquished their positions as instructors, allowing Wang Hao to take over.
After watching for a while, Wang Hao took the long sword hanging at his waist, but instead of drawing the blade, he thrust it, scabbard and all, at Zhu Wudao.
Verbal guidance is the least effective; the true essence of martial arts lies in its intuitive understanding, which cannot be explained in words. And for martial artists, there is no better way to improve than through actual combat.
Sensing the longsword coming at him, Zhu Wudao reacted immediately, wielding a knock-off version of the Masamune Blade and slashing at it.
The two engaged in a fierce battle. Well, that's not quite right. The intensity of the battle was only directed at Zhu Wudao, while Wang Hao seemed to be handling the situation with ease, firmly suppressing Zhu Wudao and even making it difficult for him to maintain his Foundation Establishment Saber Art Technique.
As the creator of the Foundation Building series of cultivation techniques, Wang Hao was thoroughly familiar with all the techniques in the Foundation Building series, and the Foundation Establishment Saber Art was no exception.
In addition to his profound martial arts skills and high level of mastery, and his thorough understanding of martial arts such as the Nine Swords of Dugu, finding the flaws in his opponent's moves is a piece of cake.
With a casual glance, he could spot more than a dozen flaws in Zhu Wudao's body, and then he thrust his sheathed Sword One, making it almost impossible for Zhu Wudao to maintain his Foundation Establishment Saber Art technique.
However, this teaching method was just right for Zhu Wudao. He had been blind since childhood and had lived in endless darkness since he was a child. Although he could speak, he did not have a clear understanding of many things.
Verbal instruction is simply not enough to make him fully understand; direct combat instruction is far more effective.
In addition, Zhu Wudao's talent in the Saber Dao was indeed not bad. He quickly came up with solutions for all the flaws that Wang Hao pointed out, and his Foundation Establishment Saber Art skills were also improving rapidly.
Even those watching from the sidelines, like Wheel-Turning King and the others, could see this rapid increase in speed, and they seemed to be pondering it.
Clearly, they realized the shortcomings of their previous methods of instructing Zhu Wudao, which were far less effective than this practical, hands-on approach.
"When!"
Suddenly, Zhu Wudao seemed to break through his own limits, and slashed at Wang Hao's sheathed longsword. This was the first time he had hit Wang Hao's sword since they started fighting, and also the first time he had used a complete sword technique.
Previously, he had been suppressed to the point that he couldn't even unleash a complete sword technique, but this strike was a significant improvement.
It was indeed a great improvement, because just now he finally broke through the original constraints of his swordsmanship, and his Foundation Establishment Saber Art had reached the level of Complete Integration. Even his own cultivation had improved considerably.
"Not bad!"
Seeing Zhu Wudao's swordsmanship break through to a higher level, Wang Hao flashed out of the battle, looking quite satisfied.
Zhu Wudao, this young man, has truly remarkable talent in martial arts, especially in swordsmanship.
Although blindness causes many inconveniences and is a significant defect, this defect can often be turned into its greatest advantage.
As the saying goes, when God closes a door, he opens another.
Zhu Wudao is this type. Although he lost his sight, his other senses are extremely sharp, especially his hearing. These powerful senses work together to the point that they have even replaced some of the functions of sight.
If it were the dead of night, no one of the same level would be able to defeat this person.
Furthermore, vision is not irreplaceable. Whether it is Divine Sense or True Spirit Will, once cultivated to a certain level, they can replace vision, and in some ways, they can even be more powerful than vision.
However, these are still far from Zhu Wudao's reach and need not be considered for the time being.
Moreover, his experience of losing his sight at a young age is probably the biggest reason why he was able to comprehend the Saber Intent at such a young age; it can be said that he lost one thing but gained another.
"Thank you for your guidance, Master!"
Sheathing his sword, Zhu Wudao respectfully expressed his gratitude, his words filled with sincere appreciation.
"We are master and disciple, so there's no need for thanks. If you can break through to the First-Rate realm within a month and reach the Peak Perfection your Foundation Establishment Saber Art, I will help you Awakening your Acquired Divine Sense."
After observing Zhu Wudao, who remained expressionless, Wang Hao offered a bait.
These words startled Wheel-Turning King Wujizi and the others standing nearby, and their faces immediately filled with disbelief.
Can Divine Sense power help others Awakening?
After the initial shock, Wheel-Turning King and his companions were overjoyed; they had truly struck it rich this time.
Zhu Wudao's aptitude was already quite good, especially in the way of the Saber Dao. If he could Awakening his Divine Sense power ahead of time, he would be even more terrifying, and his chances of breaking through to the Shattering Realm in the future would be even greater.
How could they not be overjoyed by such a wonderful thing?
If they didn't have to worry about their image, they would have laughed wildly to the sky.
"Your disciple will certainly not disappoint your master!"
Zhu Wudao solemnly made a promise, determined to complete his master's task within this month no matter what, not only to obtain the opportunity to Awakening Acquired Divine Sense, but also to avoid disappointing his master.
"Kindness!"
Nodding, Wang Hao turned and stepped onto the ancient altar once more.
He was severely harmed by the Fortune Mount Tai this time, and his body was filled with the lingering thoughts of many emperors who sought immortality. It was as if countless voices were chanting in his mind that he wanted to become an immortal and live forever.
If his True Spirit Sword Intent and Divine Sense hadn't been quite strong, he probably would have been driven mad long ago.
Even if they are able to remain conscious for the time being, their actions are still somewhat restricted.
He had just tried it; once he left the ancient altar, the lingering imperial will in his mind would start to go out of control, and if it went completely berserk, he would be ruined.
After all, this was a lingering remnant nurtured for countless years by the Fortune Mount Tai and the National Fortune of various dynasties within it; it was terrifying beyond his ability to contend with.
However, fortune and misfortune are intertwined; although it is a huge pitfall, it is also a great opportunity.
"Hopefully, we can use these lingering remnants of emperors to open the Spirit Sea!"
With a sigh, Wang Hao sat down cross-legged on the altar again and drank a pot of medicinal soup that Wujizi had sent over. It contained the ten portions of medicine that had been agreed upon earlier.
With the help of such precious medicinal soup, Wang Hao's depleted Divine Sense and Innate Qi have been restored, and even improved considerably, especially in terms of Divine Sense.
At this moment, Wang Hao activated the Nine Revolutions Spirit Nourishing Instruction he had deduced, and visualized the Pangu Heaven-Opening Diagram from his memory.
Unlike Wujizi and others, he had participated in more than a dozen grand sacrificial ceremonies of the Jiuli Tribe in his previous life in the Primordial World world. The images of the Great God Pangu and the Twelve Ancestral Witches were deeply imprinted in his memory, and he could visualize them at any time. Moreover, the effect was much stronger than the small section of axe blade that he had copied.
The statues of Great God Pangu and the Twelve Ancestral Witches in each city of the Jiuli Tribe in the Primordial Great World were not carved casually. Rather, they were created by the Great Demon God Chiyou, who specially went to the Pangu Temple of the Witch Clan to obtain the Divine Charm of the statues of Great God Pangu and the Twelve Ancestral Witches, and thus they possess incredible Kamui.
He only managed to copy a simple form that day; he couldn't possibly replicate even a fraction of its inner Divine Charm.
Even so, the copied image possesses immense power. On that day, even a small section of the Heaven-Opening Divine Axe blade displayed a sharp edge, causing the Cangmang Jade Disc, which was as hard as pig iron, to shatter.
Now he possesses the complete Pangu Heaven-Opening Diagram, which he uses as the foundation for visualization, resulting in an enhancement of his Divine Sense that is unimaginable to ordinary people.
If the speed at which Wujizi and others cultivated using that small section of the axe blade was one, then the speed at which Wang Hao cultivated by visualizing the complete Pangu Heaven-Opening Diagram was one thousand, or even greater.
If Wujizi and the others knew about this enormous gap, they would be driven mad with jealousy.
Of course, the precious medicinal soup provided by Wujizi and others also played a significant role in enabling such rapid progress, since visualization cultivation requires a large amount of Divine Sense.
While it may seem contradictory to cultivate by consuming Divine Sense, this is not the case. Although visualization cultivation consumes existing Divine Sense power, it increases the upper limit of one's Divine Sense. Only when the upper limit is increased can more Divine Sense be accommodated.
Only those with sufficient Divine Sense are qualified to open the Spirit Sea.
Logically speaking, even with the potential boost of the Nine Revolutions of Samsara Technique, he should at least raise his Divine Sense cultivation to the Peak Third Tier before he is qualified to open his Spirit Sea.
But there are always exceptions. He can only do it that way on his own, but with the help of some external forces, it can be activated ahead of time.
He set his sights on these lingering imperial wills, believing that using them as a foundation to break through to the Spirit Sea would save him a lot of effort and could very likely allow him to open the Spirit Sea ahead of schedule.
Once the Spirit Sea is opened, one can reverse Acquired Divine Sense Innate, making them Innate Divine Sense. At that time, his cultivation speed and strength will surely be enhanced once again.
Of course, although he could open his Spirit Sea ahead of time by using the power of these emperors' lingering wills, he also needed to have a sufficiently solid foundation, and his Divine Sense cultivation had to be at least at the Peak Second Tier.
If he were to cultivate alone, even with the Pangu Heaven-Opening Diagram for visualization, it would still take him at least ten years to raise his Divine Sense to the Second Tier limit, since the higher one goes, the more difficult it becomes to improve one's Divine Sense.
Now, with the support of Taoist School masters like Wujizi, he can cultivate with peace of mind and even copy the Pangu Heaven-Opening Diagram.
Visualization is the most orthodox method for Spirit Refinement power, and imitating the object of visualization is also a method of cultivation, only it is more radical and the effect is better.
The improvement gained from copying a single piece is equivalent to the improvement gained from a month of full-force cultivation, which is why he previously stated that a jade disc would be sent every ten days for copying purposes.
At the same time, this was also his bargaining chip to extort money from the Taoist School. He believed that with this bait in front of him, Wujizi and the others would grit their teeth and supply the medicine no matter how much it hurt them.
His plan proved to be quite successful!
As for the promise to Awakening Zhu Wudao's Divine Sense, it was not a joke. Although he did not have that ability yet, as long as he could open his Spirit Sea and transform his Acquired Divine Sense into Innate Divine Sense, he could Awakening the Divine Sense of others in advance.
He was confident that he could raise his Divine Sense cultivation to the Peak Second Tier within a month, and then open his Spirit Sea.
