Chapter 888: The Heart of Enlightenment

~9 min read 1,640 words

After Li Li Jingzhe departed, Li Luo began his current meditation and cultivation.

During the first five days, he did not comprehend the "Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array," but instead poured all his mental focus into cultivating the numerous "Minor Feng Hou Techniques."

The efficiency of this comprehension far exceeded Li Luo's expectations.

With the support of the "Enlightened Heart" state, Li Luo's process of comprehending these "Minor Feng Hou Techniques" could only be described as water flowing to its channel; the tricks and obscure points in cultivation were almost instantly overcome with a mere thought, and as his mind became clear, he gradually mastered them in a preliminary manner.

Of course, such an effect existed because the "Minor Feng Hou Techniques" were not truly Feng Hou Techniques; the distinction between the two was quite obvious, so if one were to cultivate a true Feng Hou Technique, such a progress that broke through obstacles like a gale would certainly not occur.

Additionally, the "Minor Feng Hou Techniques" prepared for him by Li Li Jingzhe were likely selected, with affinities extremely compatible with himself, naturally making the cultivation twice as effective with half the effort.

Moreover, the "Enlightened Heart" was truly domineering; in this state, even a person with mediocre talent in Xiang Arts could become a genius in Xiang Arts, let alone Li Luo, who was no mediocre talent; his talent in Xiang Arts was also top-tier, and the combination of the two produced effects that could not be described as anything less than terrifying.

Precisely because of these various supports, the progress Li Luo achieved in these short five days was likely equivalent to a year of cultivation under normal circumstances.

After five days, when Li Luo had preliminarily cultivated all the suitable "Minor Feng Hou Techniques," he did not continue to use the "Enlightened Heart" to push them to a higher depth, but instead began to gather his mental focus to attack the most important goal of this time.

Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array!

This was the highest-level Feng Hou Technique Li Luo had cultivated to date, the so-called "Peerless Embryo Technique"; such a Xiang Art, even if placed within the Inner Shenzhou with its profound foundations, would certainly be extremely rare.

If this technique were to spread, it would inevitably attract countless Feng Hou experts to fight for it with red eyes; although the cultivation conditions for a Feng Hou Technique of this level were surely extremely harsh, this did not hinder its appeal, since once cultivated, it would be a means sufficient to look down upon peers of the same rank.

Furthermore, if one day it could be advanced further into a true "Peerless Technique," then in the future it might become a "Peerless Marquis," allowing one to resist King-level experts while in the Feng Hou Zhi Jing realm.

Li Luo's heart waves gradually calmed, restoring clarity and transparency, while at the same time countless obscure and ancient informations flowed out in his heart; these were precisely the cultivation methods of the "Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array."

Previously, the "Sword Intent Star River" that Li Luo had comprehended and visualized was only the first step in cultivating the "Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array," while its second step was crucial: using the Star River Sword Intent to construct and condense the embryo of the sword array.

Only when the sword array took form, and the Dragon Fang Swords were returned to their positions, could it finally be considered that this technique was completely cultivated.

Between these steps lay countless difficulties; every checkpoint was like a heavenly chasm, making people look at it with fear.

But Li Luo was well prepared, and at this time, with the support of the "Enlightened Heart" state, he was not afraid of the difficulties; with a mere thought, a stream of Star River Sword Intent flowed over, and under his mental control, the sword intent spread, and in an instant countless sword intent meridians unfolded, their complex trajectories seemingly changing constantly, making them difficult to grasp.

The condensation of the sword array was extremely difficult; even with the support of the "Enlightened Heart" at this moment, the first sword intent lasted only a few minutes before a mistake in some area directly caused the sword intent to scatter and become useless.

However, this failure did not make Li Luo retreat even slightly; the second Star River Sword Intent appeared again, continuing the construction.

Fortunately, this time he had stored quite a bit of Star River Sword Intent, so he could barely afford to squander it.

Thus, Li Luo gathered his mental focus, entering a state of extreme concentration; at this moment, he blocked all perceptions, and in his mind there was only that incomparably complex sword array meridian, constantly advancing and condensing.

And time passed quietly like this.

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed.

After countless failures, a complex and obscure sword array embryo, reaching the extreme, became increasingly perfect within Li Luo's body; the entire sword array constantly emitted a loud and clear sword chant, and the sword qi flowing within, with the terrifying fluctuations it subtly emitted, made even Li Luo himself tremble with fear.

"It's already about ninety percent done..."

Li Luo gazed solemnly at this magnificent and complex sword array; after five days of pouring his heart and blood into its construction, the sword array was almost close to taking form, and the failures experienced during these few days made even him secretly tremble with fear; the difficulty of constructing this sword array was truly unimaginably high; if he did not have the support of the "Enlightened Heart," he feared that even spending half a year would not be enough to deduce and construct the sword array to its current state.

Moreover, the construction of the sword array also required the cooperation of multiple types of Xiang power with different attributes; only now did Li Luo understand why this Feng Hou Technique bore the name "Myriad Phases"; originally, without the cooperation of these multi-phase Xiang powers, such a sword array simply could not be constructed within the body.

Such difficulty indeed counted as the highest among the Feng Hou Techniques Li Luo had encountered to date.

"No wonder Grandpa brought me here; I suppose he anticipated this step." Li Luo sighed inwardly, "The Peerless Embryo Technique truly lives up to its name."

While thinking these thoughts, Li Luo moved his mind, and three more streams of Star River Sword Intent drifted out, falling into the sword array to begin the construction of the final step.

This step was especially crucial and difficult; the sword intent spread like countless tentacles, needing to connect the countless meridians constructed previously.

And at such a critical moment, Li Luo felt not a shred of tension or fear; under the support of the "Enlightened Heart" state, his heart was extremely clear, and under his mental gaze, the trajectories of the countless flowing sword intents seemed like the movement of stars filling the sky, appearing disorderly yet containing a certain special order.

Streams of sword intent flowed, and the sword array became more and more perfect.

Finally, this crucial step did not produce any danger or unexpected changes.

Everything was completed seamlessly under Li Luo's extremely calm control.

When the last sword intent meridian took form, the entire magnificent and complex sword array instantly erupted with a loud sword chant; the chant oscillated constantly within the body, but the terrible sword qi flowing within was always bound within the sword array, not a single wisp escaping.

Li Luo also felt the terror of that sword array, and he discovered that it seemed any energy entering it would be washed away and destroyed by the terrifying sword intent flowing within.

This scene made Li Luo's heart stir; in the future, if he encountered some external energy invading his body that he himself could hardly resolve, he could directly draw it into the sword array and use the sword array to grind it away.

Looking at it this way, even without the addition of the Dragon Fang Swords, this sword array had already become a layer of protective barrier within his body.

"Truly worthy of being called the Peerless Embryo Technique." Li Luo could not help but sigh again.

The "Black Dragon Nether Water Flag" he cultivated was not a simple item either; if completed fully, it would be equivalent to a Si Si Tianming-level Feng Hou Technique; this level, even within Li Li Tianwang-level factions, would be considered top-tier, but compared to the "Myriad Phases Dragon Fang Sword Array," it still seemed to have some gap.

Hoo.

Li Luo opened his eyes and gazed slightly dazedly at the burning treasure wick before him; at this time, the treasure wick had less than half its length remaining, and golden-threaded smoke flowed around it, finally drilling in through his nostrils.

This treasure wick smoke seemed to have the effect of restoring the mind; Li Luo's mental focus, originally exhausted from constructing the sword array, was rapidly recovering with the surge of the smoke.

"There are still five or six days..."

Li Luo took a deep breath; next, he had to seize the last of the "Enlightened Heart" state to condense the first Dragon Fang Sword.

So, for the first Dragon Fang Sword, which one should be constructed first?

The answer came quickly; after all, since it was the first Dragon Fang Sword, naturally one should choose the one with the highest affinity with oneself, so that the success rate of condensation would be slightly higher.

Li Luo smiled faintly and slowly closed his eyes.

Then, next, let's first condense the "Water Dragon Fang Sword," after all, this is his first phase, and he is also more skilled in water.
