Chapter 711: The Emergence of the Blazing Sun Spirit Iron

"Classmates, the Sword Dao is relatively extreme."

Jiang Ding slowly spoke of his realization: "The process of comprehending Sword Intent is the process of firming one's path and goals, no longer wavering, causing one's soul and spirit to undergo an unregrettable transformation."

"Once one wavers, once one is no longer firm, then one's Sword Dao has reached its end."

Jiang Ding thought of Ran Gu Master Dinghai Zhenjun and Yin Jiu Master Dinghai Zhenjun.

These two both wavered regarding their own Sword Intent; one turned toward the direction of spells, the other toward devouring the Sword Intent of other cultivators. Seemingly shortcuts, they were actually manifestations of no longer trusting their own Sword Intent; the possibility of breaking through to Soul Transformation was quite slim.

Of course, perhaps it was already very slim, which is why desperation led to change.

But this is not the orthodox path of the Sword Cultivator.

If luck is poor, if one does not advance and break through oneself, then one continues to seek enemies, continues to fight to the death.

At this moment, a wave of intense joy surged from the main body.

"I wonder, when Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun first entered Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong to attend classes, was it like this too?"

All of this,

was exactly like the scene when the students of An Siyan and Jiang Ding's cohort first attended Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun's language class back in the day; it was simply identical.

Below, Hua Hua Xiaohua, the old farmer-looking Fang Fang Yilong, and other students were confused and dim-witted.

Fang Fang Yilong and the others were stunned.

This is the experience summary of the Great Sun Sword Pavilion, verified many times in history, possessing great scientific logic.

"Greetings, Teacher!"

The bell for class rang once more.

Jiang Ding continued: "The Dao Heart is the goal, the cultivator's outlook on life and values; in the Jiudaxian Sect, it is respecting teachers and valuing the Dao, being loyal to the sect, and attaining immortality and the Dao."

Busy and bustling, days and nights alternated.

"Therefore, the extreme Sword Dao must have a firm Dao Heart."

Unknowingly,

perhaps, among these seventeen students before him, a Master Dinghai Master Dinghai Zhenjun could emerge in the future, looking back nearly a thousand years later, similarly recalling his own confused self of today.

No matter how much the standards are lowered, at the very least, a Jin Dan Sword Intent cultivator must be qualified; otherwise, it is misleading the children.

Repeating this process continuously.

Compared to instruction by true high-level Sword Dao cultivators, previous teachers were merely scratching an itch through a boot; they simply could not let them progress much.

"Does everyone understand?"

"Goodbye, Teacher!"

Clang!

A silver-white flying sword unsheathed and danced in the air, demonstrating various sword techniques bit by bit, occasionally interspersing insights from high-level Sword Dao cultivators, causing the eyes of Foundation Establishment cultivators like Fang Fang Yilong to light up greatly.

"Classmates, keep it up."

As for the main body, it was cultivating, refining flying swords, participating in the research and development of the 'Great Sun Infant-Binding Secret Art' requiring higher soul and spirit computational power, and improving sword techniques.

Jiang Ding sat cross-legged on the Infant-Braising Platform, deducing and comprehending spells; unknowingly, several more months passed.

Immediately, he tidied his thoughts and said with a smile: "Classmates, open 'Sword Dao (I)' to page seven..."

"Yes, remembered."

The little ones departed again.

"In the Immortal Sect, the Dao Heart is moral character and thought."

Jiang Ding's gaze looked at the students before him.

"Classmates, this is my experience. On this extreme path, moral character and thought are, for us, an important pillar; without it, the sword easily loses its edge, and the Sword Intent is no longer pure."

Fang Fang Yilong, Hua Hua Xiaohua, and the other seventeen students rose and bowed loudly.

"Class is dismissed."

Eight years passed.

The number increased from seventeen to ninety-two; among them, the number of Sword Intent cultivators was twenty-three. Basically, all newly born Sword Intent cultivators in the Immortal Sect came to him; other schools temporarily had no Sword Dao teachers.

Class time flew by.

Amidst the bell for the end of class, Jiang Ding put away the textbook.

"Yes, it is moral character and thought."

Jiang Ding estimated that Sword Intent cultivators in the Immortal Sect would continue to grow over the next several decades or even a hundred years; the foundation of the Sword Dao would transform into true power, only stopping upon reaching a limit.

"Specifically, it is agreeing with the Immortal Sect's ideology, seeing clearly the Immortal Sect's interests and the big picture, merging one's own interests into the Immortal Sect's interests, and drawing the sword to cut through thorns and brambles."

Quickly, half a month passed.

"This is not encouragement, but a necessity."

Through the Infant-Braising Platform, Jiang Ding's voice simultaneously entered the ears of the seventeen students, formulating exclusive teaching plans based on their experiences, Gong Fa, soul and spirit, magic power, Sword Intent attributes, and other test results.

Participating in the sword technique technical support needed for various Immortal Sect projects, comprehending the Golden Emperor Map, and following Zhang Zhang Junsheng to learn how to manage and cultivate undergraduates, master's students, and doctoral students.

Jiang Ding opened his eyes slightly blankly, feeling as if he had just entered light sleep and was then woken up; his mood was somewhat low, not quite adapted.

Generally, after at most nine life-and-death battles, advancement is certain.

"All these things are relatively vague."

Jiang Ding sighed in his heart.

"What is the Dao Heart?"

He knew, it was like this.

Hua Hua Xiaohua, Fang Fang Yilong, and the others said in unison.

Precisely because they had once enjoyed the legacy of predecessors, they were so patient and tolerant in lecturing low-level cultivators, seriously considering every aspect of their difficulties for them.

Jiang Ding nodded, closed his eyes, and continued to comprehend spells.

Jiang Ding said calmly, "The path of the sword, when pursued with extremism, demands an unshakable heart. For sword cultivators in the immortal sects, one must possess a moral and ideological score higher than that of the vast majority of cultivators to walk this path, remaining steadfast and unyielding at all times."

Thus, life in the Adult Sword Path Department of Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou University was simple and unadorned: daily lectures, meditating on spells, a cycle of repetition, extremely tedious.

Everyone gripped their sheathed swords tightly, holding their breath, not daring to let their minds wander for a single moment, fearing they would miss a single word and lose a precious opportunity.

Fang Fang Yilong and the others stopped their clamor, bowed deeply once more, retreated backwards, and only began to chatter excitedly and nonstop once they were far away.

Thump!

Thump, thump, thump...

"Students, the Moral and Ideological course must be taken to the extreme."

Their Chinese, Mathematics, Moral and Ideological, and Space Combat classes were all dispersed among various institutions such as Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou University, as Qingfeng University could not accommodate so many students, which would lower the quality of teaching.

Fortunately, as a manifestation of the Sword Path Hall, he had long been accustomed to such a life and felt no discomfort.

"Goodbye, Teacher!"

In this process, one attains the Dao and achieves immortality.

"Moral and Ideological?"

"Today's class ends here. Students, pay attention to previewing and reviewing after class, and read the Sword Path Gong Fa in the library to deepen your foundation."

Half a month passed quickly.

Now, the foundation of the Sword Path was increasing almost every moment, widening the path.

Jiang Ding nodded and continued, "Next, we discuss sword techniques. Basic sword techniques are the root of all sword arts; all advanced sword techniques extend from them..."

"This is..."

At this time, an orthodox sword cultivator should silently cultivate, constantly accumulating strength until reaching their own limit, then seek a suitable enemy to fight a decisive battle. Failure means death; victory offers the possibility of advancement.

Besides this reason, other schools also need students from the Sword Path Department to practice new tactics. The reconnaissance of enemies by sword intent cultivators and the guidance of bombings are being incorporated into the military drill manuals.

"Goodbye, Teacher!"

Jiang Ding seemed to have a sudden realization.

"The Blazing Sun Spirit Iron has emerged into the world."
