Zhang Yan never thought that one day he would take the initiative to test the direction of the Sword Immortal. His idea is not to eventually become a Sword Immortal, but he hopes that he can have the most solid understanding of what a "sword" is and what a "sword art" is based on the practice of the Sword Immortal.
Because it is said in Taoist books: Sword Immortal wields his sword with his heart.
Moreover, the practice of Sword Immortal seems to focus more on the word "enlightenment". The upper limit of the performance of sword techniques is often the word "enlightenment".
What Zhang Yan has to follow now is the path of cultivation of the Sword Immortal. What I'm looking for is not "a single-minded sword", but just a "handy" one.
Ever since the first piece of gold foil was melted by the sword soul in Zhang Yan's body and turned into a "hair", he began to work on the sword. This change was also driven by the situation, and was a way Zhang Yan came up with to deal with the shortcomings of his current methods.
In fact, it is not appropriate to say that there is a lack of "means". It should be said that it is a trump card that can be used at the same time.
Zhang Yan's trump card must be the Wanxiang Pearl in his hand. The Wanxiang Pearl can transform all the magic weapons he can master now. Such as the book on the ground, the flying knife that kills immortals. It can be said that Zhang Yanneng's biggest reliance on the enemy is to reach a higher level.
But the limitations of Wanxiang Pearl are also obvious. That is, it can only be transformed one by one. If you use the Earth Book, you cannot use the Immortal Killing Flying Knife. In the fierce killing, it is a typical example that offense and defense cannot be considered at the same time.
Previously, Zhang Yan found "Zhou Mountain" in the shining storm. The original intention was to refine a suitable piece of armor for myself. But in the end, he discovered that Gao had admired his own weapon-refining methods, and at the same time, he also found that his vision had been sharpened by the Wanxiang Pearl, and he no longer liked ordinary immortal weapons.
So I put it off again and again, and finally when I arrived at the ruins of the Sword Tomb, I still couldn't find a suitable and eye-catching magic weapon.
But the sword spirit brought out from the ruins cheered up Zhang Yan. Especially the "hair" formed after the sword soul melted a piece of gold foil, Zhang Yan's expectations suddenly opened up, and he knew that the magic weapon that he had been looking for was finally coming to fruition.
Although Zhang Yan said that the golden object formed after being melted by the sword spirit looked like a vellus hair, that was just his metaphor. In fact, it was a "long sword" as small as a vellus hair.
In other words, a problem that has always troubled Zhang Yan is no longer his problem.
When he got the sword spirit, Zhang Yan began to think about how he could reshape the sword's true form. The materials involved are at the level of innate spiritual treasures. Not to mention whether he can get it based on his ability, but where to find it is a problem. Moreover, urging the innate spiritual treasure also requires knowledge and methods involving magic circles, and he is definitely far behind at the moment.
So after getting the sword soul, Zhang Yan regarded it as getting a lottery ticket that was bound to win in the future, but the time span was very long. I never thought I could cash it out in such a short period of time.
But now he realized that all his worries and embarrassments were unnecessary. Everything was calculated when the Sword Tomb ruins were originally established. From the moment Zhang Yan obtained the sword soul, he had actually completed the biggest step in rebuilding the sword. As long as Zhang Yan is not stupid, he will definitely find the rest in the ruins.
Now it seems that there is a reason why the void world has nothing to do with the gold foil. It cannot be refined, the purpose is not known, the origin is not known, etc. It is just because these gold foils are the main body of the innate spiritual treasure. How easy is it to shake them?
With this understanding, Zhang Yan no longer wondered whether there was any mystery hidden in the gold foil in his hand. Because it's not necessary anymore. What mystery could be more important than reshaping a sword?
So Zhang Yan rubbed the stars on the ninety-one pieces of gold foil in his hand and threw them all directly to Jian Po to melt them.
The whole process is also simple. After Zhang Yan nodded in agreement, his hands only needed to touch the surface of the thick stack of gold foils to directly melt the gold foils. After melting, they would follow the texture of his palms, pass through the meridians, and finally enter the Dao Dan in the lower Dantian.
However, after all these gold foils entered the Dao Dan, they still brought an unexpected surprise to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan thought that after melting, these gold foils would merge into the previous "hair" and grow. In this way, the true form of the sword is gradually reshaped. But the facts told him that he still thought too simply. Or maybe it’s not comprehensive enough.
You must know that the origin of the Sword Tomb ruins is the war between the three religions. The scene of the battle is a large formation, which is the Zhuxian Sword Formation.
The main structure of the war is to intercept the teachings and defend the formation, and to attack the teachings and human teachings. If the formation is broken, the teaching will lose; if the formation remains, the human and interpretation teachings will lose.
Therefore, the formation is actually the key. And the large array weapon doesn't just have one killing sword, but four!
But whether the gold foil is superficial or underlying, the harvest is exactly the same. Combined with the other use of gold foil that has now been discovered besides star maps: the main body of innate spiritual treasures. Then it is clear that the gold foil is definitely not just a killing sword.
Through inner observation of Tao Dan, Zhang Yan discovered that although these gold foils looked exactly the same, they actually had different trends.
It's like the same water droplets, but some water droplets contain salt and some water droplets contain sugar, and each of them tends to "pile up" and can be gathered together according to their different subtle differences after being merged into the Dao Dan.
This caused Zhang Yan's Dao Pill to quickly become not just one "hair", but four.
Perhaps using vellus hair is no longer so appropriate. Using "a small piece of toothpick" is more in line with their current appearance.
Except for the first prototype of a purple and green sword, the other three swords also have their own characteristics. The difference is always subtle, but the commonality is very eye-catching: murderous intention, evil spirit.
It's just different from the first one where the murderous intention and evil spirit were actively restrained. Although the other three handles did not release these to affect Zhang Yan's Dao Dan, they were more like "deadly silent" than actively controlled. In Zhang Yan's opinion, this should be because the prototypes of these three swords only have bodies and no "spirit".
However, the prototype of the four-handed sword actually appeared.
Zhang Yan even tried to take them out. It can actually be done, but it can't be used or arranged for the time being. It can only be suspended in the palm of his hand. He mainly does the movement sensing for the first sword soul, and then the sword soul can command all four swords. device.
It was precisely because of seeing the possibility of luck that Zhang Yan made up his mind to start practicing swordsmanship. What he wants is his understanding of the art of "sword" from the very basics. And he also needs to integrate his understanding of "the way of meaning" into his "sword way".
You don’t even know how to sword, and you don’t even have your own swordsmanship, so you just want to play around with the Zhuxian Sword Formation, which was the first sword formation in the world and also the first killing formation? Are you dreaming?
