He felt icy cold all over.
Mr. Tu immediately shook his head saying, "Impossible, that man’s Dao, no matter how terrifying or deceitful, his influence could never extend this far..."
"Especially under the Divine Lord’s watchful eyes."
"Impossible..."
Mr. Tu murmured.
In the depths of mystery, with causality swirling about, Mr. Tu cast aside this suspicion, letting it slip from his mind.
Only, he never realized whether he forgot it willingly or was forced to forget...
...
At the boundary of Qianxue State, various undercurrents surged.
Mo Hua’s days, on the contrary, became peaceful.
He lit calming incense daily, contemplating the "Tai Xu Diagram" given by Elder Master Xun — Mo Hua didn’t know what the diagram was called, he simply used his specialty and gave it an arbitrary name.
Contemplating Tai Xu Diagram, refining the Taoist Heart.
Besides that, attending classes, cultivating, learning formation techniques, continued as usual.
After several days, the remnants of some chaotic and corrupt desires from the sea of consciousness, were purified almost completely.
Mo Hua spent some time reinforcing his sea of consciousness.
In such a way, his realm of divine sense thoroughly stabilized.
Nineteen Patterns!
Mo Hua felt delighted in his heart.
A Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator’s divine sense, generally speaking, this was the strongest level achievable.
His senior brothers, even those a level above him, didn’t possess divine sense as strong as his.
Even some inner sect disciples at the Foundation Establishment Peak, if they didn’t study formations or walk the path of divine sense, wouldn’t have divine sense surpassing his own.
Mo Hua was very pleased.
Moreover, although his cultivation level had not increased, thanks to breaking through two divine sense realms, his divine thought grew significantly stronger, and most of his Tao cultivation methods, including formations, spells, and even rudimentary "Divine Thought Sword Transformation", showed obvious improvement.
Only...
Thinking about Divine Thought Sword Transformation, Mo Hua frowned slightly.
His Divine Thought Sword Transformation was "crippled".
It could only be used within the divine thought world, including contemplation maps, illusionary realms, dreamlands or nightmares.
It couldn’t be used in reality.
But the orthodox "Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue" should not be like this...
Mo Hua recalled the sword cultivator elder from the small fishing village.
That elder’s Divine Thought Sword Transformation could be used in the real world.
Using sword technique as support, through externalizing divine thought, condensing into sword intent, merging with sword qi, it could slash through blood and flesh demons, even ghostly specters.
But his own could not.
Mo Hua had tried many times; no matter how he attempted, it didn’t work.
Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators indeed could externalize divine thought.
But this externalization could only be used passively for sensing, not actively for slaughter.
At most, it served for active "object manipulation".
However, the manipulation itself is not based on divine thought slaughter, but relies on the object controlled by divine thought, like spirit swords or other spiritual artifacts, to perform offense and defense.
Mo Hua sighed.
"How exactly can I learn the true ’Divine Thought Sword Control’?"
"Is it because my divine sense isn’t strong enough?"
Mo Hua paused, suddenly remembering, a long time ago, Lord Yellow Mountain indeed mentioned the divine sense requirement for Divine Thought Sword Control:
"At least Golden Core, above twenty patterns..."
"Furthermore, even Golden Core might not achieve it..."
"After all, Divine Thought Sword Transformation is sword qi transforming into sword intent, sword intent representing sword qi, not merely using ’divine thought’ to represent sword qi..."
Mo Hua scratched his head.
Twenty patterns, Golden Core divine sense, who knows when that day will come.
Those who have proven the Dao with divine sense know, that one pattern divine sense from a breakthrough in a great realm requires an extremely terrifying amount of divine sense.
From nine patterns to ten patterns divine sense, he had tempered for quite a while.
From nineteen patterns to twenty patterns, not to mention, the gap is as vast as a sea.
