Back at the Disciple’s Residence, Mo Hua couldn’t sleep at all; almost immediately, he took out the bamboo scroll that Patriarch Dugu gave, no, temporarily lent him.
The bamboo scroll was very rough, like someone picked a bamboo strip and casually carved it.
But the simplicity revealed a sense of Great Dao’s naturalness, returning to the original state.
On the bamboo scroll, there was a sword, the engravings ancient and profound.
Mo Hua stared at the sword scar.
After a long time, he saw nothing.
Turning Divine Thought into a sword is not only difficult to learn, even the legacy is so obscure.
Mo Hua shook his head.
Yet no matter how difficult, as long as it involves the Divine Sense, Mo Hua has enough confidence and experience to deduce and study it bit by bit.
After spending about two days without sleep or food, Mo Hua finally gained some insight.
This Sword Dao Bamboo Scroll, essentially has a remarkable similarity to the "Water Prison Forbidden Box" of the Gui Water Sect.
It’s a type of "similar" Contemplation Map.
Though not a Contemplation Map, it relies on a "map" to engrave the legacy, where the cultivator gains the inheritance through contemplation.
"Should I try learning it?"
Mo Hua was a bit conflicted.
The God Slaying Technique is very strong, but it requires tempering the soul with the sword, and the risk of self-slashing the Life Soul is equally great.
Moreover, he’s essentially "skipping grades" in learning.
Skipping the orthodox Taixu "Soul-Shocking Sword," skipping the Sword Intent condensation, Evil-breaking "God-breaking Sword," and directly starting to learn the final "Godslaying Sword."
But not learning seems not an option either.
The evil embryo residing in the Life Soul is like a thorn in his back, a bone in his throat.
Mo Hua must get rid of it.
"Try it first..."
At midnight, Mo Hua burned incense and bathed, meditated and sat calmly, then took out the bamboo scroll, ready to temper the soul with the sword, practicing the God Slaying Sword Form.
He focused his eyes on the bamboo scroll, contemplating the ancient sword engraving on the scroll.
At first, nothing happened.
Mo Hua felt no different.
But gradually, the calmer his mindset, the longer he contemplated, the sword scar on the bamboo scroll began to change.
This sword scar seemed to slowly transform into a sword.
This sword, formless and intangible, contained an ancient, vast Sword Intent, with a vague power of Yin and Yang division, Taixu rotation.
And Mo Hua’s Divine Thought communicated with this sword.
The tip of this sword also pointed at Mo Hua.
Mo Hua was taken aback, then suddenly understood.
His eyes turned cold, gritting his teeth, hardening his heart, he silently chanted in his heart:
"Slash!"
Sword Intent instantly broke through the void, through Mo Hua’s eyes, directly into his Sea of Consciousness, slashing towards his Life Soul.
A burst of intense pain erupted.
A sharp, piercing scream followed.
This scream came from Mo Hua, but it wasn’t Mo Hua who screamed.
At the same time, Mo Hua’s face turned dark and sinister, transforming into the Evil Baby, shrieking:
"Ignorant fool! What are you doing? Are you trying to die?!"
