The Wind of Purity was cool and full of life; the forr moistened the ridians and nurtured the divine soul, while the latter was infinitely wondrous, akin to dew on flowers and droplets on grass blades. Together with ng Yu's Sword Intent of the Wind, they complented each other perfectly. Once ng Yu used this Heavenly Dao to achieve Foundation Establishnt, his sword would be both a killing blade and one that resurrects!
The cool breeze, full of vitality, circled around ng Yu thrice, waiting for his acceptance. Alas, ng Yu did not respond, and so it disappeared without a trace.
This was the enticent of the Son of Heavenly Way plan.
For those in cultivation, regardless of their talent, they often must follow the guidance of their sect and ntor when they first start. Many waste their entire lives adapting to a cultivation technique rather than choosing the one that suits them best. As for Sword Intent, Heavenly Dao?
Don't joke—can one even choose these things?
But indeed, one could choose.
Heavenly Dao Three Thousand referred to the ergence of many different Heavenly Daos, an existence even loftier than Sword Intent.
You will have the opportunity to venture on a path laden with treasures. On both sides of this path lies boundless wealth, each type sufficient to serve one for a lifeti. The only regret is that you can choose only one and just once. If you miss out on the choices earlier, they will not appear ahead.
Moreover, do not be too indecisive. In the different minor worlds, not too many types of Heavenly Dao can erge—only about forty to fifty kinds, at most a hundred... Well, this range of options would already make countless people red with envy. Who's heard of being able to select a Heavenly Dao, to find one that suits oneself?
Recently, Zhuge Caihua has been conducting low-key and modest lectures at various universities, sharing her experiences with the fifteen types of Heavenly Dao she encountered during her quest as the Daughter of the Heavenly Dao.
She spoke in detail and with regret, stating that she had missed so many; each one made the audience shiver. Then she chose the sixteenth type of Heavenly Dao—she was quite embarrassed, thinking she should have waited, for dozens more would erge later, potentially even better ones.
As she lectured, she realized that showing off could indeed be addictive.
Then, two more distinct auras appeared beside ng Yu, but ng Yu did not pay them any mind.
Thanks to the jade rabbit and Bai Qianqian, their extensive historical records provided ticulous information. He had already chosen one Heavenly Dao with a one hundred percent chance of appearing and one that was extrely suitable for him.
The most suitable one is the best!
It was then that a red sun leapt above the horizon. At this mont, it was not dazzling but resembled a shy maiden in the morning twilight, quietly lifting her veil. Gradually, like a goose-egg-shaped golden orb, it rose above the horizon, its warm and gentle rays enveloping everything.
This was the sunrise in the east, the Way of the Dawn Heavenly Dao. Although it was mild and slow, it surged forward unstoppably. Most importantly, it was a perfect fit with the Shaoyang Mysterious Skill ng Yu was cultivating!
Out of the Three Thousand Great Ways, ng Yu chose the Way of the Dawn Heavenly Dao.
A strange force penetrated from the top of ng Yu's head. While countless Qi Refinent Practitioners were still pondering the changes of heaven and earth, ng Yu, as the Son of Heavenly Way, had already integrated the Heavenly Dao into himself at this mont.
Perhaps there were many suitable Heavenly Daos to co, but among the three thousand weaker waters, I take but one scoop—that which suits the best!
True Qi within his body began to boil, and one barrier after another was breached. Simultaneously, the thread-like True Qi started to transform into a liquid, creating a Spiritual Pool at ng Yu's dantian.
Foundation Establishnt had officially begun!
Although the very best Foundation Establishnt Pills were at hand, ng Yu did not even glance at them. Other cultivators might worry about insufficient True Qi at this mont, but ng Yu had no such concern.
With two Sword Intents and Growing Golden Lotus, plus the enhancent from the Wetted Clothes Eighteen Tumbles, his constitution and the quality of his True Qi had beco excessively formidable. In the months prior, several tis he felt he could achieve Foundation Establishnt by Enlightennt!
Infinite Spiritual Energy surged into his body, and the favor of the Heavenly Dao had brought the Way of the Dawn Heavenly Dao!
The Fire Crow flapping its wings suddenly beca lifelike, not only radiant but also undergoing transformation.
The dawn is also a kind of sun, and the Fire Crow is a distant relative of the Three-legged Golden Crow.
ng Yu's Shaoyang Mysterious Skill remained as warm as light within him, yet now it shimred with a faint golden glow.
The next mont, the True Qi within ng Yu completely transford into liquid, and then, he achieved Foundation Establishnt.
From the day ng Yu arrived in this world, exactly ten years had passed.
A cup of wine under the flowering trees in spring, a lantern in the rain of the jianghu for ten years. The young boy grows old in the jianghu, while talk of imperial ambitions and conquests is taken lightly.
...
On the first day of the first month of the sixth year of the Great Tang Dynasty, Emperor ng Yu conducted a heavenly ritual. At that ti, celestial phenona appeared and Vital Energy resonated.
ng Yu had beco the Son of Heavenly Way, with the Way of the Dawn Heavenly Dao integrated into his being. Unfortunately, he did not awaken any Innate Divine Ability. Perhaps with his kind of aptitude, he never had an Innate Divine Ability to begin with.
Zhuge Caihua's aptitude far surpassed his.
Even so, this was already extrely remarkable. Foundation Establishnt by Enlightennt involves perceiving the Heavenly Dao, contemplating its every nuance through pictures or footage to lay the foundation for personal ascension. However, ng Yu entered the room of the Heavenly Dao and made direct and intimate contact with it, rging with it as one.
Next, even if not ten tis stronger, he could rely on the Way of the Dawn Heavenly Dao and cultivate Spiritual Energy step by step on the path to achieving the Golden Core.
His companions also benefitted.
Sisters Liu Qingshuang and Wang Fugui, along with Mister Huo, all saw significant advancents in their cultivation this ti. It's a pity that Liu Qingshuang had too short a cultivation ti and only advanced to the seventh layer of Qi Cultivation, while Sister Liu reached the third layer and Wang Fugui and Mister Huo both reached the sixth layer. However, given their ages past fifty and their lacking talents, Foundation Establishnt was nearly impossible for them in the future.
Su Qingqing and the other five disciples of the Moon-Watching Sect in the Qi Cultivation Stage were very fortunate, with Su Qingqing and two others achieving Foundation Establishnt, while the remaining three also made significant progress in their cultivation, with hopes of establishing their foundations as well.
Even the observing Foundation Establishnt cultivators of the Moon-Watching Sect gained benefits, feeling endless gratitude.
In the sixteen great formations in the distance, whether it was disciples of the Mysterious Heaven Sect or the various loose cultivators and demons, everyone bowed their heads in thanks. The more talented and clever individuals understood just how worthwhile the expenditure of the Flower Spirit Stones had been.
Afterward, Liu Qingshuang and her sisters would remain to govern the Great Tang Dynasty, while ng Yu returned to the Moon-Watching Sect.
In the future, once ng Yu, as a Foundation Establishnt cultivator, would not return to the world of the Great Tang Dynasty, but that did not an the connection was severed; Liu Qingshuang and the others could ascend to visit ng Yu.
...
Three days later.
"Sister Bu, please."
ng Yu saluted the Qingluan Swordmaster with a gesture.
To the outside world, ng Yu only announced that he had successfully established his foundation, but the true mastery of that great path was kept secret, with only a handful of people within the Moon-Watching Sect being aware.
Even Bu Shixian speculated that ng Yu might have awakened so sort of innate divine ability, but since it was personal privacy, she felt it was not appropriate to inquire.
ng Yu's Foundation Establishnt was a success. Though the Way of the Dawn was not the most powerful, it matched him the best. Now, he wanted to spar with the Qingluan Swordmaster to gauge the strength of his combat abilities.
After achieving Foundation Establishnt, it felt as though the world had brightened, and he seed to have everything under control. His True Qi had beco like a dense yet smooth liquid, similar to rcury, which made his combat strength multiply imnsely with every action he took.
Previously, to kill Huang Tianxiang, ng Yu had to employ a combination of secret techniques to defeat him. But now… he felt that even with ordinary moves, he could easily beat him!
The next mont, Bu Shixian appeared in front of ng Yu, striking out with her sword.
ng Yu and Bu Shixian had fought many tis before, and she had beco familiar with ng Yu's swordsmanship, which was a sorrowful, stunning, yet incredibly precise technique. Combined with his swift movents like the wind and Fire Crows like a forest, even a cultivator in the Middle Stage of Foundation Establishnt would be slain by ng Yu.
She was curious to see how much progress ng Yu, now at the Foundation Establishnt stage, had made.
But what she saw was boundless ripples of water.
ng Yu was actually using a defensive Water Elent Swordsmanship!
Layer upon layer of ripples spread, tenderly entwined, exuding a vast and lingering presence. It was a sword technique that was predominantly nine parts defensive and one part offensive!
ng Yu had reached the pinnacle of training in the Shaoyang Mysterious Skill, where the ultimate yang generates yin. Moreover, those who cultivate are governed by the rotation of the Five Elents, so it was normal for him to use Water Elent Swordsmanship, but Bu Shixian still furrowed her brows.
"That's right, why not use the swordsmanship you're good at, but this instead? If you need a set of Water System swordsmanship, I have one here, it's just slightly inferior."
Bu Shixian asked a question.
In her view, having cultivated to this point, ng Yu could entirely seek out a higher level of Fire Elent or Wind System Sword Technique, like the Radiant Sword of the Great Sun Tathagata or the Sovereign Wind Sword, or even train in both, then make rapid progress on his path to greatness.
"I have so other ideas," ng Yu responded with a smile. He had been practicing this Water Elent swordsmanship for two years already.
This swordmanship was sowhat stronger than the White Crane Swordsmanship and the Fire Crow Sword Technique but was not the pinnacle of sword techniques available within the Immortal Sect, where many more formidable sword arts could be found.
"Why not choose a better sword technique?"
"Too profound, it's difficult to comprehend Sword Intent."
"Sword Intent?"
This took Bu Shixian aback.
She was aware of Sword Intent and knew that at the pinnacle of sword art training, there was a certain chance to achieve Sword Intent. However, ng Yu's words left her sowhat puzzled.
Why would he need so many Sword Intents?
Also, was Sword Intent so easily achieved through training?
"Yes, I'm considering following the path of Earth, Fire, Water, Wind—all encompassing emptiness, or perhaps the path of the Four Symbols—the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise. I've already practiced the Fire Crow Sword Technique and the White Crane Swordsmanship. Now, I'm learning a set of Water Elent Sword Technique. Once I master Sword Intent for this set, I'll move on to train in the Earth Elent Divine Sword. Then, combining these four Sword Intents should ensure an exceptionally smooth path to my Golden Core."
Having spent so much ti with Bu Shixian, ng Yu felt comfortable sharing a portion of the truth with her. This valiant and beautiful older sister had greatly aided his sword technique.
"Are you devising your own martial skills instead of cultivating the divine techniques passed down in your family?"
Suddenly, Bu Shixian asked the question that had long troubled her.
