There were five steps in Sword Dao. The first step was Sword Momentum, the second step was Sword Intent, the third step was Sword Soul, the fourth step was Sword Soul, and the fifth step was Sword Heart.
The Net is worth your collection.
The Ancient Sword Continent was a continent that advocated Sword Dao cultivation. It was said that there was a mysterious province on the Ancient Sword Continent that only Sword Dao cultivators could enter.
In that large province, there were countless amazing sword cultivators.
The Sword Dao Quintessence that Fang Chen had obtained at this moment mentioned the Five Steps of Sword Dao.
Every Sword Dao cultivator should know about the Five Steps of Sword Dao. One had to climb step by step. Only when one reached the peak would one be qualified to compete for the title of Sword Dao genius.
The Five Steps of Sword Dao was actually a cultivator's understanding of Sword Dao.
After comprehending the first step, one would be able to comprehend Sword Momentum. After comprehending the second step, one would be able to comprehend Sword Intent, and so on.
At this moment, Fang Chen was told that he had to comprehend the first step of Sword Dao Quintessence before he could leave the garden.
Of course, he had to do it within half a year. Otherwise, he would never be able to leave.
"I have already comprehended the first step of Sword Dao, Sword Momentum." Fang Chen was a little puzzled. His Sword Intent had already reached the third minor realm and was about to reach perfection.
It should be known that Sword Intent was transformed from Sword Momentum when it reached a certain level.
"I know that you must have a lot of doubts in your heart, but all of these are in the Sword Dao Quintessence.
I can only tell you that your so-called third realm of Sword Intent is actually inferior to Sword Momentum in front of Sword Dao Quintessence, "Zhenren Hantian's illusory figure said these words and disappeared without a trace.
Fang Chen was even more puzzled.
"Since I can't leave, I'll work hard to comprehend Sword Dao Quintessence," Fang Chen thought to himself.
After that, Fang Chen went to the pavilion and sat down cross-legged.
The chessboard in the pavilion was still there, but the black pieces and Shirako on the chessboard had completely disappeared. It seemed to be saying that the fat black-clad old man and Zhenren Hantian were completely dead.
Fang Chen sat cross-legged in the pavilion as he took out the Sword Dao Quintessence Beginner's Scroll and began to read it.
Flipping to the first page, Zhang Xuan arrived at the main text of the second page. This was what the Sword Quintessence said.
"The first step of the Sword Dao is sword force. To be able to comprehend the first step of the Sword Dao means that a sword cultivator already possesses sword force.
On the other hand, with sword force, one would be able to control the Heaven and Earth Power in the surrounding air. "
When Fang Chen saw this sentence, his face was full of surprise.
With sword momentum, he could actually control the power of heaven and earth around him.
Wasn't this something only a Spirit Vortex Realm expert could do? Could a martial artist who could control sword force really do it?
Fang Chen was full of doubts. If this was the real sword momentum, then what was the sword intent surging around him?
Fang Chen continued to look at the Beginner's Book of Sword Truth. After a while, he found the answer in the book.
"This …"
Fang Chen was shocked when he saw the answer.
Fake Sword Dao. What he had cultivated before was actually a fake Sword Dao. It could not be called a Sword Dao at all.
"Some sword cultivators can easily comprehend sword force and even sword intent during cultivation.
However, those are all fake Sword Daos. They can't be called a real Sword Dao at all. "
"A real Sword Dao is a peak existence that surpasses some. Only by truly comprehending the first step of the Sword Dao can one have a deep understanding of it."
The Sword Truth had completely subverted Fang Chen's understanding of the Sword Dao. At this moment, his heart was in a mess.
"Fake Sword Dao."
A hint of helplessness appeared in Fang Chen's eyes.
As he continued to read the Beginner's Book of Sword Truth, Fang Chen was soon engrossed in it.
Time passed bit by bit. In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
During this month, Fang Chen did not think about anything else. He read the Beginner's Book of Sword Truth attentively.
After a month, Fang Chen finally had a new understanding of the Sword Dao. The Sword Dao that he had cultivated before could not be called a Sword Dao at all.
At this moment, Fang Chen finally understood what the Five Steps of the Sword Dao were and what sword force was.
At a certain moment, Fang Chen made a decision, and that was to comprehend the Sword Dao Truth with all his might.
In the following period of time, Fang Chen wholeheartedly immersed himself in the Sword Dao Truth. During this period of time, his sword intent was completely devoured by the golden heart.
After the golden heart devoured Fang Chen's sword intent, it seemed to be very excited and it was beating rapidly.
After another month, the sword intent around Fang Chen completely disappeared. Now, Fang Chen was like a beginner in the Sword Dao. He did not even come into contact with sword force.
It was as if he had returned to nature and became very ordinary. During this period of time, Fang Chen had been comprehending the Sword Dao Truth.
After four months of continuous comprehension, Fang Chen still could not comprehend the first step of the Sword Dao. This made him more or less anxious.
However, whenever Fang Chen felt anxious, the golden heart would emit a cold aura that calmed Fang Chen down instantly.
"What is the Sword Dao? What is sword force?"
Fang Chen constantly muttered in his heart. His mind was filled with the information in the Sword Dao Truth. He was comprehending the Sword Dao all the time.
This comprehension lasted for half a year.
When the half-year deadline came, Fang Chen finally opened his eyes.
At this moment, a great force of heaven and earth emerged around Fang Chen's body. Within this great force of heaven and earth, there was an incomparably sharp aura.
"Sword force."
A hint of joy appeared in Fang Chen's eyes.
After half a year of comprehension, he had finally taken the first step of the Sword Dao and comprehended sword force.
"Is this the sword force of the first step of the Sword Dao?"
Fang Chen muttered to himself as he circulated the sword force around his body and immersed himself in it.
At this moment, the sword force around Fang Chen merged with the surrounding power of heaven and earth. Fang Chen felt that he could actually control the power of heaven and earth around him.
"This is the true sword force."
After a long time, Fang Chen said in a deep voice.
The sword force condensed from the first step of the Sword Dao was countless times stronger than the sword force that he had comprehended before. The current sword force was much stronger than the sword intent.
"This is the true Sword Dao." Fang Chen sighed in his heart.
Just as Fang Chen comprehended the first step of the Sword Dao, the golden heart was beating rapidly. At the same time, the golden heart was also undergoing a transformation.
Hiss!
Fang Chen felt that the golden heart seemed to be transmitting some kind of message to him.
The golden heart started beating rapidly at first, but it slowed down a lot later. When the golden heart completely calmed down.
Fang Chen suddenly felt that his control over the golden heart had increased a lot. This was a feeling that he had never felt before.
"This is …"
Fang Chen was shocked. Was it because he had taken the first step of the Sword Dao?
Fang Chen knew that the golden heart was related to the Sword Dao. But now, Fang Chen had a new understanding of the golden heart.
It seemed that the golden heart also knew that he had taken the first step of the Sword Dao, so it had completely recognized him.
Fang Chen took out the Hidden Star Sword and displayed the seventh level of the Phantom Sword Technique.
Swoosh!
With a light stab of the sword, a deep sword mark appeared on the wall at the gate of the garden.
Fang Chen could clearly feel that with the powerful sword force, he could use the sword force to change the trajectory of the sword light in the sky when it shot out.
"It is indeed the first step of the Sword Dao."
Fang Chen was shocked.
Although his cultivation level had not increased, his understanding of the Sword Dao was more thorough than before.
From today onwards, he had truly become a qualified sword cultivator.
The power of the sword strike just now was so strong that Fang Chen could not help but sigh. Now, he could even easily deal with a martial artist who had condensed eight strands of Genuine Qi.
"It feels so good to control the world."
Fang Chen opened his hands and felt the power of the world around him.
The sword force of the first step of the Sword Dao could control the power of the world around him, while the sword intent of the second step could control the power of the world to a large extent.
If he could reach the Sword Soul Realm, it was completely possible to control the power of the world in the entire Nanling Land with a wave of his hand.
"Sword Dao Quintessence."
Fang Chen's gaze fell on the book of Sword Dao Quintessence.
It was this book that had put him on the right track of the Sword Dao. It was also this book that had led him forward on the path of the Sword Dao.
After a long time, Fang Chen put away the Sword Dao Quintessence. The half-year period was over, and it was time for Fang Chen to leave.
Fang Chen cupped his hands toward the garden and then turned to leave.
When Fang Chen left the garden, his figure disappeared in an instant. The next moment, he found himself outside Zhenren Hantian's residence.
Boom!
Zhenren Hantian's residence slowly disappeared from Fang Chen's sight.
Perhaps this was the last time Zhenren Hantian's residence appeared in the eyes of the world.
In any case, Fang Chen had obtained the Sword Dao Quintessence from Zhenren Hantian's residence. This was a chance to change his fate.
After watching Zhenren Hantian's residence disappear, Fang Chen turned to leave.
Little Mouse was still in the Medicine King Valley. Adding the half a year he had spent in the garden, it had been almost a year. He wondered how Little Mouse was doing.
As early as half a year ago, the people of the Valley of Hundred Snakes returned to the Medicine King Valley and reported everything to the Valley Master of Hundred Snakes.
The latter was furious when he heard this.
When he learned that the Snake Lord was dead and that the Snake Taming Flute had been taken away by Fang Chen, he was filled with anger. Then, he directly ordered to search for Fang Chen in the Four Great Ridge at all costs. He wanted to see him if he was alive or dead.
During this time, the Valley Master of Hundred Snakes was ready to vent his anger on Little Mouse.
However, Little Mouse had quietly left the Medicine King Valley at some point in time.
Although the Valley Master of Hundred Snakes was furious, there was nothing he could do.
However, not long ago, the elder of the Valley of Hundred Snakes sent back news that they had found traces of Little Mouse in front of a bottomless abyss in the West Ridge. He did not act rashly and alerted the enemy. Instead, he quickly sent back the news.
When this news was transmitted back, the Hundred Snake Valley's Valley Master immediately gave the order for the Third Elder to lead a team to eliminate the little mouse.
