Chapter 261 - 258: Trouble Again
Returning to the Ice Moon Hall, Ye Xuan, once all the materials were in place, began to help Nangong Yao refine pills.
As long as the materials were sufficient, refining Heavenly Grade pills was not a problem for Ye Xuan. It took him five days to successfully refine the pill.
After all, it was his first time refining this pill recipe, and he needed to carefully consider it. He was also not yet skilled in utilizing the Molten Lava Earth Core Fire for alchemy and failed once before finally succeeding.
Having obtained the pill, Nangong Yao was so excited that she immediately went to assimilate it, ready to risk everything in order to defeat Zhuo Yanyun in a month.
Even Granny Ning was somewhat amazed, as she had never seen Nangong Yao work so hard and take a duel so seriously before.
During the time Nangong Yao was in seclusion, Ye Xuan, in order not to disturb her, often went to a nearby plaza to practice his swordsmanship.
This period had divided much of his attention to Nangong Yao, but he couldn’t neglect his own cultivation. Ye Xuan himself was a cultivation fanatic, and once he entered the state of cultivation, even he could not stop himself. If it weren’t for this, he could not have reached such heights in his previous life.
Human Sword Unity, Sword Heart Clarity - Ye Xuan’s achievements in the Sword Dao were already commendable as having reached the mastery level. Hardly anyone at this age could comprehend both these realms of Sword Dao so high. The advanced level of the Sword Dao could pave the way for the cultivation of swordsmanship. Ordinary swordsmen and those who have mastered the realms of Sword Dao, even if they executed the same sword technique, the power was vastly different.
In the hands of ordinary swordsmen, a sword is a lifeless object, a tool, but in the hands of a Sword Dao Master, the sword is spirited, alive, and has its own will – this is the difference.
However, even a Sword Dao Master could not create sword techniques like Ye Xuan could, and the sword techniques he created were more powerful than the moves inherent in Martial Arts themselves. In this aspect, Ye Xuan was ahead of Sword Dao Masters, but after all, he possessed the perception and experiences of the Martial God; creating a set of Martial Arts wouldn’t be a difficult thing for him once his cultivation improved. It was just not necessary at the moment, as the power of a self-created Heavenly Grade Martial Arts might not surpass that of the ancestors.
The higher the realm, the more important creativity becomes.
