Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 140 - 136 Comprehending the Great Will
Chapter 140: Chapter 136 Comprehending the Great Will
Luo Shou glanced at Wang Xu, and Wang Xu felt that his gaze wasn’t as cold as it seemed on the surface. Clearly, this Senior Brother Luo is someone cold on the outside but warm on the inside, with a good heart.
"Use your strongest strike to attack me," Luo Shou said.
Wang Xu was stunned for a moment, then nodded immediately. He drew out the White Jade Long Saber, unleashing the ten-thousandfold power of the Formless Giant Power, enhanced by the Sword Intent of Life Slaughter, and slashed forcefully at Luo Shou!
Wang Xu exerted his full strength, without holding back the slightest. Senior Brother Luo is at the Black Hole Level and should be able to withstand this strike.
A bright light shone at the tip of the White Jade Long Saber, drawing a gentle light that crushed down with force enough to smash a star.
Luo Shou frowned slightly. In his hand, a White Jade Long Saber also materialized. It was an energy body, without any true power.
Clang~
Luo Shou thrust his saber, not using Heaven and Earth Will, nor employing any Secret Techniques, just a plain, ordinary strike that directly blocked the full-powered attack of Wang Xu!
The sound of metal clashing rang out leisurely. Wang Xu had a look of astonishment on his face. He had guessed that Luo Shou could withstand it, but he hadn’t expected him to do so with such ease, using just an energy-formed war soldier to dissolve his strongest strike!
"Power, it’s not used like that," Luo Shou said solemnly, "Your power technique is too immature."
"Please instruct me, Senior Brother Luo Shou!" Wang Xu said sincerely with cupped hands.
It was his first encounter with such a strong person. With his own strength, Wang Xu could easily crush ordinary Black Hole Level martial artists, but under Luo Shou’s hand, his full strike was of no use. Clearly, Luo Shou is a true strongman, worthy of Wang Xu’s respect!
"I will now suppress my realm to the extreme Void Level. You receive my strike," Luo Shou said, and his aura suddenly weakened, then a White Jade Long Saber formed from energy came out again.
Again, it was an ordinary strike with no Secret Technique, no Heaven and Earth Will.
Wang Xu also countered with his White Jade Long Saber, but the moment they touched, Wang Xu’s eyes widened!
What terrifying power!
Wang Xu could clearly feel the power transmitted from the White Jade Long Saber. If he hadn’t supported himself with the Formless Giant Power, his body might have been irrepressibly knocked flying by this fierce strike.
"Did you feel that?" Luo Shou withdrew his White Jade Long Saber. "The way to use power."
Wang Xu shook his head. He was shocked by this sword. Clearly, Luo Shou had suppressed his realm level to the Void Level, yet the power of one saber strike could match his treasure combined with Formless Giant Power, almost forcing him to use Shield Will.
What exactly is this power?
"Your combat techniques are still at the initial stage, blindly raising and recklessly wielding power, not understanding the true strength of power," Luo Shou said. "Did you notice? When you swung your saber just now, you shattered the floor."
Wang Xu nodded indeed, his power poured down and spread out, affecting the surroundings.
"Then you should have noticed that when I struck, the floor had no reaction," Luo Shou continued.
Wang Xu was startled and quickly looked, and it was true. There were no cracks on the floor, not even a speck of dust was disturbed.
"Do you understand now?" Luo Shou said. "Although your power is great, you haven’t fully let it out. Some of the power has spread out, wasted without meaning, while I gather this wasted power, pouring it all into the saber. The power you endure will be multiplied several times!"
At this point, Wang Xu fully understood.
His strike could shatter stars, a single breath crushing down, but part of the power just dissipated into the cosmos without working on the stars.
If this power could also be applied in unison, the power surge would make crushing stars even easier!
"Blindly using power, causing the earth to crumble and stars to be destroyed during combat, is typical of ordinary cosmic strongmen. True cosmic strongmen don’t let their power ripple out even an inch, concentrating all the power on the target, maximizing the attack’s force," Luo Shou said. "This is a technique of power, yet it is also the hardest method of controlling power to learn, requiring long-term exploration and persistent training."
Wang Xu benefited greatly, sighing inwardly. The Heaven-Reaching Pavilion truly consisted of the exceptional ones among the exceptional. Their control and mastery of power were things they achieved through self-exploration and understanding, evident in their formidable strength.
"Alright, the gift for your first meeting is just up to here, let’s go," Luo Shou turned around and continued to swing his chain.
"Thank you," Wang Xu bowed, then, led by the Red Sword, left Luo Shou’s palace mansion.
...
"Haha, Luo Shou is a cultivation fanatic, not even I am his match. You’ve received his guidance, you must have gained much," Senior Brother Red Sword laughed.
Wang Xu nodded. Indeed, the techniques of power enlightened him, realizing how foolish he was before. If he could gather those meaningless energies, Wang Xu’s strength would surge!
"Good, let’s visit the next one, at Senior Brother Feng Du’s place," Red Sword laughed.
For several consecutive days, Wang Xu and Red Sword visited the senior brothers of Cyan Yang Hall.
In recent days, Wang Xu had been observing his senior brothers’ cultivation, which deeply moved and inspired him.
In the Cyan Yang Hall, there are over a hundred people. Each has their own area of expertise, for example, Luo Shou, who specializes in chains; controlling power is secondary for him. His true strength lies in the ’Space Great Will’, where within a certain space, no matter how one dodges, his attacks will always hit the enemy. Close combat is simply a nightmare for his opponents.
Then there’s Senior Brother Du Mu, who comprehended the Great Will of "Light". Every strike is incredibly swift, like a flash of light, even shadows are hard to catch.
This speed is no different from that of light.
And there are many other Great Wills like the five elements, lightning, storms, dark threads... and so on. Wang Xu’s eyes become brighter and brighter.
At the same time, Wang Xu also discovered that even if the comprehended Great Will is the same, such as Senior Brother Du Mu and another senior brother, who both comprehend the Will of Light, one attains speed akin to light, while the other imbues the light onto themselves to fend off attacks, with remarkable effect.
The same Will, in different people’s hands, exhibits different abilities.
"The Great Will, in the end, is one’s own comprehension. Once comprehended, it is one’s own thing, others can only use it for reference." Wang Xu already had a general direction in his mind.
...
"Buzz~" While chatting with a senior brother, the ring on Red Sword’s hand suddenly vibrated intensely.
"Another newcomer has arrived. Little Junior Brother, I have to go out to guide them. You can chat more with Bai Zheng," said Senior Brother Red Sword.
"Senior Brother Red Sword, feel free to go, and thank you for your trouble these past few days." Wang Xu was very grateful to Red Sword, who helped him get acquainted with everything in Cyan Yang Hall tirelessly. In these days, he even took him to visit many senior brothers’ palace mansions. Some senior brothers were arrogant and aloof, showing Wang Xu a cold face without friendly words, only giving insights on Red Sword’s account. Wang Xu remembered this kindness in his heart, and vowed to repay it heavily in the future if given a chance.
Then, Red Sword’s figure soared into the air, bidding farewell to Wang Xu and Bai Zheng, transforming into a ray of swift light, darting away into the distance.
"Little Junior Brother Wang Xu, cultivating Body Technique requires actual combat. Come, I’ll suppress my realm to attack you. You need to pay attention to my attacks, be aware of your surroundings, truly merge the Will into the heavens and the earth..." Senior Brother Bai Zheng said, thrusting his longsword forward.
Just like that, under Senior Brother Bai Zheng’s training, Wang Xu’s Body Technique progressed significantly.
That night, Wang Xu returned to the palace mansion, gazing at the dark sky, devoid of any starlight. This is the Sacred Cosmos, where the Law of Time does not exist, stars are never born, nor will they perish.
Under the night sky, Wang Xu held the White Jade Long Saber, recalling the insights imparted by his senior brothers during the day.
Many things about cultivation, Wang Xu heard for the first time. Among these genius senior brothers, Wang Xu was the weakest, yet he possessed the greatest potential.
Whoosh!
Wang Xu gently swung the White Jade Long Saber in his hand, without any Heaven and Earth Will support, just an ordinary swing.
He closed his eyes, merging himself with the heavens and the earth.
In his mind, various insights whirled around, Wang Xu swam among these realizations, the White Jade Long Saber in his hand gradually began to transform.
Great Will... Small Will... Heaven and Earth Will...
Wang Xu’s thoughts danced wildly, suddenly seeing Mie Cang’s enormous wolf claw, a moment later recalling a strike from his senior brother, and fleetingly, a ray of light appeared...
It was this ray of light!
All the thoughts, all the insights, condensed at this moment, Wang Xu’s entire being entered an ethereal state, his demeanor transformed, becoming more like the aura emanated by his senior brothers...
Body melded with heaven and earth!
Waah!
In an instant, a blinding, dazzling light burst forth in Wang Xu’s consciousness!
Simultaneously, Wang Xu swung the White Jade Long Saber out from his hand.
BOOM! freeweɓnovel~cѳm
The blinding light from the White Jade Long Saber soared into the sky, carrying a destructive aura, piercing straight through an unoccupied palace mansion above Wang Xu’s head!
"Hmm?" Luo Shou, who was swinging chains, paused momentarily, turning to look at the immensely violent white beam of light, "This is the Great Will... Is it the new little junior brother? It’s only been a few days, and he’s already comprehended the Great Will?"
On the other side, the senior brother Du Mu, who had guided Wang Xu, was also shocked, looking at that towering beam of light: "Light Will... Looks like another formidable opponent is born."
At the same time, many senior brothers also saw this beam piercing the sky.
Wang Xu bathed in the sacred white light; as the white light gradually dissipated, Wang Xu slowly opened his eyes.
"The Great Will, accomplished!"
