Taixu Gate, Elder's Residence.
The end of the year was approaching, and Xun Ziyou, as usual, discussed some matters concerning the Sword Discussion Conference with Elder Master Xun.
These matters were specially arranged by Elder Master Xun.
After three rounds of tea, having discussed business almost completely, Xun Ziyou took a sip of tea and hesitated several times before asking:
"Old Ancestor, did you... teach the Mo Hua Sword Skill?"
Elder Master Xun was somewhat surprised, looked at Xun Ziyou briefly, and asked calmly, "Why do you ask?"
Xun Ziyou was silent for a moment and then slowly said, "Mo Hua seems to have... learned the Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue..."
Elder Master Xun's pupils shrank, "What did you say?!"
Xun Ziyou silently repeated it.
Elder Master Xun's gaze condensed, "Did you see it?"
Xun Ziyou nodded slightly, "I saw him, used Divine Thought into sword... to kill a Third Grade Pig Monster."
Elder Master Xun was left stunned.
After a while, his brows knitted together, looked at Xun Ziyou in confusion, and slowly asked:
"Do you yourself... know what you were just saying?"
Mo Hua...
Learned Divine Thought into sword True Jue?
Killed a Third Grade Golden Core Realm Pig Monster?
How could these absurd matters possibly be linked together?
After thinking for a moment, Elder Master Xun said to Xun Ziyou:
"Bring your head over, let me examine your Sea of Consciousness..."
He now had a bit of concern whether Xun Ziyou was influenced by evil objects at Gushan Temple so that his Sea of Consciousness is still muddled, making him prone to flights of fancy and unable to distinguish between imagination and reality.
Elder Master Xun showed concern.
Xun Ziyou smiled bitterly, "Old Ancestor, I'm fine, I truly saw it with my own eyes..."
Elder Master Xun paused in his movements, seeing Xun Ziyou's clear gaze which didn't seem like lying, solemnly asked:
10:32
Elder Master Xun paused in his movements, seeing Xun Ziyou's clear gaze which didn't seem like lying, solemnly asked:
"When did it happen?"
"Just during the day," Xun Ziyou said, "Mo Hua went to Refining Demon Mountain, saying he was going to cultivate a small spell point, I accidentally saw it..."
Xun Ziyou then narrated the entire course of events.
Elder Master Xun frowned, "Did Mo Hua know that you saw it?"
Xun Ziyou pondered and said, "I was far away and had concealed my presence. All his attention was on the Pig Monster, so he probably didn't notice me..."
Ordinary Cultivators, even Golden Core Cultivators, while battling a Third Grade Golden Core Pig Monster, must give full attention and exert themselves fully, having no spare effort for anything else.
Especially since Mo Hua is only at the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Elder Master Xun remained silent, his expression became serious.
Xun Ziyou spoke no words.
Thus he had no choice but to take this seemingly "absurd" event seriously.
Yet Elder Master Xun furrowed his brow, after pondering for a long time, still found it hard to connect these events.
Upon closer inspection, whether learning Divine Thought into sword or slaying a Golden Core Pig Monster, are absolutely impossible...
Mo Hua is only in Foundation, how could he learn Divine Thought into sword?
Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue is Taixu Gate's supreme Sword technique, a sect-protecting heritage, and a forbidden technique of Taixu Gate.
Each generation of Taixu Gate, exceptional Sword Dao geniuses are none without starting early arduous Sword cultivation to solidify their foundation.
Only when they reach late Golden Core stage, and their Divine Soul is stable, can they enter the threshold.
Cultivate until Feather Transformation, letting the Divine Soul out, then it achieves minor success.
Only in Heaven Void, discerning illusion from reality, can they reach God-slaying.
Foundation Building Cultivators... how could they learn Divine Thought into sword?
Moreover, Mo Hua, this child, is not even a Sword Cultivator.
He is a Loose Cultivator, grew up poor, likely had never touched a Spirit Sword, without any Sword Dao foundation.
Doesn't even have a Lifebound Sword, how could Divine Thought transform into a sword?
Besides, where did his mentorship come from?
Taixu Divine Thought into sword requires stringent conditions, arduous cultivation, and secluded inheritance, inherently difficult to learn.
