The river was very long. In order to fully experience the artistic conception of the water, Cheng Ling did not use his body skills to fly across the river. Instead, he stood in the water and walked slowly towards the depths.
After walking straight for half an hour, he walked out of the passage. Once out of the passage, the scenery in front of me changed drastically, and there was an endless sea in front of me. The ocean is so big that there is no end in sight. At this moment, the waves are rolling, and the big waves seem to be roaring towards the sky.
In this world, the sky is dark and covered with dark clouds. There is no lightning or thunder, but there are heavy rains coming, forming a picture of sea and rain intertwining and the heaven and earth shaking!
On the sea, a dark blue water ball was suspended in mid-air as the huge waves rolled by the layers. No matter how powerful the waves were, they couldn't move it even a bit.
The water polo is as big as a basketball, and when viewed from the outside, it is a transparent blue. In the water polo, various water flow scenes change and appear one by one, such as the vast sea, huge waves, torrential rain, calm lakes, gurgling creeks, winding rivers, etc.
"Original water!"
Cheng Ling screamed, her whole body trembling with excitement, and she was greatly surprised. I didn't expect to see the original water here. This is really surprising.
The original water is the product of all the water from heaven and earth gathered into one drop. It encompasses all the changes of water. It can be said that in this drop of water, the origin of any water can be seen. Such a treasure is really too precious.
As long as this first drop of original water is refined, Cheng Ling can completely control the origin of water. The artistic conception of water derived from the origin will naturally come naturally.
This should be the Water Dragon Hall. I don’t know where the people of the Agni Fire Sect got the original water and put it here. It must be similar to the sword array of Jinlongtang, used as a defense for the entrance of the hall!
He thought to himself, staring at which drop of water, and thinking hard about how to refine it.
The water of origin is not so easy to refine. Since it is the origin of all kinds of water, it can transform the power of all kinds of water. Water is the source of all things, but when it rages, it can also cause disaster.
If you want to refine it, you have to get close to it. The way to get closer is to break through all the transformed water forms.
Cheng Ling adjusted his mentality, circulated his true energy, and stayed at his peak state. With one step, he stepped into the sea. A loud roaring sound was immediately heard from the sea surface, and the sea water rolled up violently, forming circles of whirlpools that spread in all directions.
A strong suction force came from the vortex, sucking him towards the center of the vortex. Cheng Ling's eyes condensed, and his sword intent erupted. He raised the red flame sword high and struck towards the whirlpool with one sword.
The sea surface roared and the waves rolled, as if a giant dragon turned around on the bottom of the sea. The entire ocean boiled and slowly lifted up with a rumble. Gradually, it turned into a water dragon about ten feet thick and collided with the sword energy struck by Cheng Ling.
The clouds clear and the fog disperses, the light destroys the sky! The dark clouds in the sky collapsed, and countless rainwater was squeezed out from the collapsed clouds and connected into pieces. At a glance, it seemed that there was another ocean in the sky, falling violently downwards, and turning into a thick water dragon.
The entire water dragon lifted up from the sea was connected with the water dragon in the sky, entangled with each other, and continued to attack Cheng Ling!
"The sky is set ablaze!"
The scorching fire energy merged into the red flame sword and slashed towards the water dragon!
laugh! laugh!
Water and fire exchanged, making bursts of scoffing sounds. The water dragon seemed to be evaporated by the hot fire, and in an instant, it shrank by more than half.
"The sun is scorching" and "the sky is full of flames"
Cheng Ling kept up his efforts and continued to fire the ultimate fire-type swordsmanship moves.
The water dragon became smaller and smaller under the hot sword strokes, and was finally completely evaporated!
Boundless water vapor spread out. After a long time, the sea began to calm down. The water vapor gradually condensed and finally turned into a water ball. The color of the sea is revealed in the turbidity of this water ball. At a glance, you can't see the edge, just like a mercury!
Mercury gradually shrank, and finally turned into a water ball, slowly floating towards the drop of original water, and finally, completely integrated into it.
Cheng Ling took a step forward and came to the front of the source of water. Stretching out his palms, he grabbed it and poured the true energy from his body into it, starting to refine it!
The source water immediately started to spin crazily. As it rotated, it continued to condense and compress. Every time it shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye, the pressure inside it would increase by countless amounts!
In Cheng Ling's mind, he could see the sea water surging around him. The pressure of the water gathered from all directions. In the rapid squeezing, there were waves of aura that wanted to destroy everything.
If this huge amount of water were compressed into a drop and exploded, not to mention this area, even the entire mountain range would be leveled! This is the power of the original water!
Cheng Ling's eyes became more and more cautious. At this moment, all his mental power and true energy were activated. If he lost control even a little bit, he would end up in ashes.
During the continuous refining, I clearly saw all the changes in water and the essence of water!
His soul is very powerful and his understanding is extremely high. Tightly comprehend all the changes in the original water in my mind.
These changes seem to have no trace, but in Cheng Ling's eyes, they are so rich. He gradually saw some clues, and his powerful mental power began to work, constantly deducing the changes and remembering them firmly!
The more changes he mastered in water, the stronger the essence absorbed. The water polo rotated and shrunk faster and faster. Half an hour later, it changed from the size of a basketball to the size of a football. The water in the water polo was refining and compressing again and again. Next, the original attributes are stronger!
An hour later, Cheng Ling had mastered more original attributes and was refining faster and faster. The water polo has shrunk to the size of a fist. The blue water droplets gradually changed color and became turbid, with a faint roaring sound coming from within.
This sound is caused by the squeezing of water. The roar is getting louder and louder, and the size of the water ball is also getting smaller, from the size of a fist, to the size of an egg, to the size of a fingernail.
Cheng Ling's understanding of water became clearer and clearer in his mind, as if he understood it a little bit, just a little bit closer! Finally, with a "boom", the water droplets in front of him condensed into a drop, and the original water was completely refined.
After sucking hard, the drop of water completely disappeared into Cheng Ling's mouth. Gradually, layers of water vapor filled his body, and the water vapor kept flowing back and forth from the pores all over his body. Eventually, it all evolved into a dragon of water vapor and disappeared into his mind.
Cheng Ling opened his eyes, and a blue, watery artistic conception flashed through, done! It's a pity that this drop of original water is not perfect. After refining, he discovered that less than two-thirds of it was actually missing, and it was obviously incomplete. Otherwise, such a treasure would not just be placed in Shuilong Hall.
However, even two-thirds of the original water increased Cheng Ling's artistic conception of water to 70%! In his mind, the Blue Wave Thousand Miles Sword Technique was comprehended in an instant. The fourth move of Water and Sky One Color, the fifth move of Water Drops Penetrating Stone, and the sixth move of Autumn Water Ripples were all clearly displayed in his mind.
Even the last trick, Jing Hua Shui Yue, was still superficial!
A look of regret flashed through his eyes, and Cheng Ling was very satisfied. As a human being, you must learn to be content. How can ordinary people find the opportunities here?
The understanding of artistic conception is not as ethereal as the sword intention. It often has traces to follow, and everything in the world has its own attributes.
It will be much simpler to learn from the attributes in all things and understand the power of artistic conception. But it’s not like a cabbage. Just pick out any monk and you can comprehend it. Generally, monks in the Nascent Soul stage can comprehend one artistic conception, which is pretty good, but two kinds of artistic conception are very rare.
As for Cheng Ling, the six artistic conceptions he has comprehended so far are fire, wind, thunder, wood, water, and cloud, which are rare in the world of monasticism. What's more, the artistic conception of water he comprehended directly climbed to 70%.
The attribute artistic conception has the same four levels as the sword intention. 70% of the artistic conception's power has entered the realm of Dacheng, and the power generated is simply not the same. If the original water is perfect, he can even directly reach the state of perfection, and he can fully understand the swordsmanship.
After the source water was refined, the scene in front of him completely changed. The originally turbulent sea water and huge waves disappeared, and what came into view was a calm lake surface, with wisps of breeze blowing, causing ripples.
In the center of the lake, there is a small island with several wooden lofts built on it. It is obviously the activity place of Shuilongtang, but it is completely hidden under the illusion of the original water.
Cheng Ling moved his feet, flew across the lake, and landed steadily on the island. With a sweep of consciousness, the situation on the island came into view.
There are no monks on the island. They must have all been sent to the north. He walked into the attics on the island to see if he could find anything, but the attics were all empty, not even any low-grade materials were found.
"You're so stingy, you didn't even leave any of it for me!"
Cheng Ling curled his lips helplessly, cursed at the people in Shuilongtang, and left helplessly.
It took about three hours to explore Shuilongtang and refine the original water. Presumably, Bai Yiyi and Gu Youlan should have finished tempering their sword intent by this time.
Back at the Golden Dragon Hall, Bai Yiyi and Gu Youlan just finished their work. Seeing Cheng Ling turn around, Bai Yiyi said happily: "Cheng Ling, Sister Youlan and I have tempered our sword intent to 50%. Now, Brother Jian You can’t bully me anymore, hahahaha!”
Cheng Ling was also happy for them and asked with a smile: "What? Does Brother Jian always bully you?"
Bai Yiyi stuck out her tongue and said: "That's not true, it's just that I haven't been able to beat him. Now my sword intent has reached 50%, and Brother Jian has only reached 30%. He is definitely not my opponent, haha!"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and shook his head. Although sword intention can increase combat power, it is not absolute and depends on your mastery. For example, Bai Yiyi's mastery of sword intention is definitely not as good as Jian Yinghao's, so even if Jian Yinghao suppresses her and fights with her at the same level, he won't have any advantage.
Just like a child, picking up a wooden sword may bring out the best of his abilities. But if he is asked to pick up a very heavy iron sword and he can't hold it steady, how can he unleash the power of the iron sword?
According to Cheng Ling's observation, Jian Yinghao is already very proficient in mastering the sword's intention. Even if he compares with himself, he is not far behind. Bai Yiyi is definitely not as good as him. However, their sword power has increased to 50%, and their combat effectiveness has also been greatly improved. The future journey should be much easier.
Bai Yiyi was happy for a while, then calmed down and asked: "Okay, there is nothing to stay here. Where should we go next?"
Cheng Ling chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I've been to Water Dragon Hall just now. It's nothing special, but the sword array in Golden Dragon Hall is a very interesting thing. I want to take it all away!"
After saying that, he walked towards the ten top-grade swords!
