Immortality Through Array Formations-Chapter 1156 - 698 Transforming Sword Skill_3

Mo Hua only glanced once, but the sword light stung his eyes so sharply he immediately averted his gaze and dared not look directly, just catching glimpses with the corner of his eye, towards the elder’s surroundings.

Beside the elder stood a young man with a sword on his back.

"Xuan Er..."

"This swordsmanship, I was not supposed to teach you, but I don’t want..."

Mo Hua’s Divine Sense was insufficient, Calculation still lacking experience, the causality weak, so his voice sounded intermittent, as if not fully there.

"I don’t want you..."

"...I don’t want the lineage of our Taixu Gate to be severed."

A fog of confusion enveloped, causality entangled, voices mixing together, it was unclear when and where this occurred.

Mo Hua tried hard to listen.

"...Divine Thought into sword... True Jue..."

"Your foundation is solid, today I will teach you..."

"Soul-Shocking Skill..."

Soul-Shocking Skill?!

A shiver ran through Mo Hua’s heart.

Taixu Divine Thought Sword True Jue - Soul-Shocking Sword Skill?

Mo Hua stealthily opened his eyes wider but still did not dare to look at the bearded elder, only daring to gaze towards the young man with the distinguished eyebrows.

Within the young man’s eyes, resided deep and clear Sword Intent, his hands grasping a sword, with Sword Qi gathering around the blade, Sword Qi and Sword Intent merging; although the moves were immature, they subtly revealed astonishing might.

Mo Hua’s eyes widened in awe, watching intently, yet his heart went cold.

He was doomed, he couldn’t understand at all.

This was not a beginner’s sword technique, but an advanced Sword Transformation skill. Mo Hua had no foundation at all, and was utterly confused.

The scene flashed by, leaving no trace.

Mo Hua caught only a fleeting glimpse, learned nothing.

"Isn’t there something simpler..."

Feeling helpless, Mo Hua continued forward, pushing the causality.

Scenes, incomplete, stained with bloodied causality, passed by unclearly.

Voices mixed together as if soaked in water.

Finally, Mo Hua heard two words.

"Sword Transformation..."

Mo Hua fixed his eyes on the next scene, this time without the bearded elder, just the young man with distinguished eyebrows alone, standing amidst lush mountains.

The mountain scenery was very familiar, serene and ancient, reminiscent of Taixu Gate, but Mo Hua had never seen such a place within the Sect.

The young man held a sword, standing among the mountains, mist moistening the hem of his clothes, shrouding his face.

Yet his eyes were bright, just like the sword in his hand.

The young man’s voice, clear and resonant.

"Transforming Sword Skill..."

"First form of the Taixu Divine Thought Sword True Jue, Transforming Sword Skill..."

"The Path of Divine Sense, changes myriad, exploring human Thought, unfathomable by gods or spirits."

"The method of Divine Thought, metaphysical, slays demons and exterminates evils, countless Sword Forms, must start with ’Sword Transformation’."

"Soul-Shocking Skill, God-breaking Skill, God Slaying Technique, Extinguishing Divine Skill... all begin with ’Sword Transformation’..."

"Sword Transformation, from cultivating sword to transforming Qi, refining Qi into Intent, merging Intent with sword, from Void to Solid, uniting Void and Solid, thereby with Divine Thought ’Sword Transformation’, to cut down everything..."

...

Mo Hua listened intently as if famished, remembering every word, while simultaneously observing the young man’s movements, mimicking them, and starting to practice step by step.

"Sword Cultivation transforming Qi..."

Mo Hua tried it, but it didn’t work.

His Spirit Sword was of poor quality, the cultivated Sword Qi also weak, lacking foundational strength.

"Refining Qi transforming into Intent..."

That didn’t work either.

Since Mo Hua was not a Sword Cultivator, his foundation in Sword Dao was weak, the cultivated Sword Qi feeble and hard to merge with Divine Sense, manifesting as Sword Intent.

Mo Hua couldn’t handle these two steps, so he simply shut his eyes and jumped to the very end:

"Merging Intent with sword, from Void to Solid..."

Within the causal scene, after days and nights of hard cultivation, the young man’s swordsmanship improved, finally ready to attempt merging Divine Sword as one.

Manifesting Divine Thought as Sword Intent, merging it into the sword in hand.

His sword now not only bore clear sword light but also had a refined, silver-white Sword Intent.

As for Mo Hua, he forwent both the sword and Sword Qi.

He only learned the young man’s method of "condensing the sword", manifesting his own Divine Sense into a sword in his heart.

This was a "shortcut" method.

But because his Divine Sense was strong and sufficiently refined,

thus in his Sea of Consciousness, his Divine Thought indeed slowly manifested a sharp "sword shape" like the young man.

This was a light gold-colored sword.

The shape of the sword was rough, like a sword embryo just taken out of the Refining Furnace, not very long, resembling a gold-colored small sword for children, fitting just right in the Divine Thought manifested Little Mo Hua’s hand.

Hence, Mo Hua’s Heavenly Secret Calculation had reached its limit.

All clues of causality on the sword were thoroughly obliterated.

All the retrospective scenes also disappeared.

The aura on the broken sword weakened significantly, seemingly becoming an ordinary Spirit Sword.

In the Sea of Consciousness, Mo Hua looked at the gold-colored small sword manifested by Divine Sense in his hand, yet fell into contemplation.

Have I essentially learned it, or not?

"Divine Thought Sword"...

It indeed was "Sword Transformation".

But this sword, compared to the causality and past of the young man, that is, the Sword Cultivator predecessor, couldn’t be said to be unalike, but also could be said to be vastly different...

The young man had a sword, he himself did not.

The young man’s Divine Thought Sword, was merging the Sword Intent in his heart with the Sword Weapon in hand, and blending it with Sword Qi, utilizing the sword to kill and vanquish.

His own Divine Thought Sword was simply, plainly using Divine Thought to form a sword...

Moreover, it was only formed in the Sea of Consciousness, in reality, there wasn’t even a shadow.

Mo Hua scratched his head, feeling troubled.

It seemed like he had learned, but learned incorrectly...

But, did what he learned count as a true "Divine Thought Sword"?

No cultivating sword to transform Qi, refining Qi into Intent, only merging Intent with sword, from Void to Solid.

No, not actually from Void to Solid...

Mo Hua glanced at the gold-colored small sword in his hand again, sighed.
