’The *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique*... After so serious thought and analysis, it seems to be based on the Supre Dao system of "The Dao Generating One, One generating Two, Two generating Three, and Three generating all things." ’
Ye Tianling contemplated this, then began to earnestly comprehend it, sending the Cultivation Technique into the Space-Ti Soul-locking Tower.
"*Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique*. Compatible with *Dao Generating One* Cultivation Technique. Comprehensible."
Suddenly, this chanical ssage was transmitted from the Space-Ti Soul-locking Tower, leaving Ye Tianling stunned.
’Comprehensible? Does that an I haven’t comprehended it yet?’
Ye Tianling was dumbfounded. ’Isn’t this a trash Cultivation Technique?’
"Little Dragon Girl, give a hint, would you?"
Ye Tianling tried asking.
However, his question was t with total silence, like a stone sinking into the sea.
Ye Tianling focused on comprehending it for a while, but he didn’t gain much insight.
As for the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique* itself, Ye Tianling didn’t bother starting its Cultivation, because he truly looked down on it.
’I wonder when I’ll be able to unlock *Dao Generating One*, that peerless legacy Cultivation Technique, from the Space-Ti Soul-locking Tower...’
Based on his own understanding, combined with Dugu Qiubai’s mories, he deduced that the *Dao Generating One* Cultivation Technique likely originated from Laozi’s *True Tao Te Ching*.
Comprehending the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique* would be inferior to simply comprehending the *True Tao Te Ching*.
Ye Tianling began to focus his mind, carefully recalling the full text of the *True Tao Te Ching* from within Dugu Qiubai’s mories.
"The Dao generates One, One generates Two, Two generates Three, and Three generates all things. All things carry yin and embrace yang, blending their energy to achieve harmony..."
Ye Tianling recited it silently. At first, he gained nothing from it.
But gradually, he seed to enter a state of Harmonization Dao. The words he recited in his mind felt as if they were transforming into ancient Runes, suffusing his body.
At that mont, he suddenly gained a profound understanding of the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique*.
This understanding, however, was built entirely on the foundation of the ’nonsense’ he had spouted earlier.
As his comprehension deepened, it was as if that ’nonsense’ had beco the most profound analysis, the truest annotation of the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique*.
’One Heart, Many Thoughts, condensing a will for slaughter to realize a Strong Heart!’
’That’s the fundantal principle!’
Realization dawned on Ye Tianling.
A ssage suddenly appeared in Ye Tianling’s mind: "*Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique* comprehended. Generating data. Storing... Storage successful."
The chanical voice interrupted Ye Tianling’s insight, pulling him out of his state of Harmonization Dao.
Ye Tianling’s mind cleared. He then discovered that within the Space-Ti Soul-locking Tower, the area of the Ninth Layer below had grown noticeably brighter.
Ye Tianling understood now. The so-called ’data storage’ required him to have a certain level of understanding himself before sothing could be stored and converted into data.
’So that’s how it is. Doesn’t this an... I have to learn everything I don’t know using my own power? I can’t just inherit them directly! It looks like this path will be very difficult.’
Ye Tianling felt a little disappointed—after all, he much preferred to reap where he hadn’t sown. But unfortunately, it seed that was no longer an option.
As Ye Tianling was thinking this, his head suddenly snapped toward Wan Xuegui.
At that mont, Wan Xuegui’s entire body flickered with a bloody light. It was as if he had shattered a deep shackle within his bloodline. Not only had his Realm broken through directly to Sword Spirit Third Heaven, but he was also undergoing a rapid transformation, advancing toward the Third Heaven Perfection Level.
Furthermore, the trend was very promising.
However, just as Ye Tianling thought Wan Xuegui was about to undergo Sword Spirit Void Transformation and step into the Sword Void First Transformation Realm, the Bloodline Power throughout Wan Xuegui’s body suddenly converged.
From within it arose an incomparably ancient and vast aura of Destruction.
As this aura appeared, the entire Blood-Colored Ice Lake region beca extrely oppressive.
"Xuegui Child, you have done well! You rembered our family’s honor and sha, were able to break through your old self, sever your attachnts, and birth a singular obsession. To see you cultivate the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique* to its true potential... this Elder is deeply honored."
The ancient voice and the aura of Blood Evil made Ye Tianling’s heart skip a beat.
’What is that ten-ter-tall, ancient, blood-colored figure that just manifested behind Wan Xuegui?’
’An Elder?’
’The Fang Family’s true Sword Ancestor’s will has awakened?’
’The legacy has awakened?’
At that mont, the expression on Ye Tianling’s face was priceless.
"Grandfather, if not for your guidance, how could this grandson have ever awakened and transford? It was all due to your peerless might and Supre Dao comprehension that I was granted such a fortuitous opportunity."
Wan Xuegui turned, looked up at the massive phantom, and kowtowed in prostration, his face filled with reverence.
"Grandfather? Xuegui Child, did your Cultivation go awry and make you stupid? I am Wan Jimie, your Sword Ancestor! Though I am but a will of the legacy, you won’t even call ’Elder’?"
’This is bad. It really is the Sword Ancestor... So the Fang Family’s Sword Ancestor is nad Wan Jimie. And now... I’ve really overdone it.’
Ye Tianling was speechless, but he didn’t dare make a single move, lest he attract the attention of this ’Sword Ancestor’s will’.
’A Sword Ancestor... Even if it’s just a wisp of his will, I don’t think I can fight it.’
Ye Tianling finally understood the source of the ’sense of crisis’ he had felt earlier.
’Did I scam Wan Xuegui so badly that even the heavens couldn’t bear to watch? Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that this Elder’s will awakened? If I had known, I would have never passed the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique* on to him.’
’Looks like I’ll have to swallow the bitter pill I’ve brought upon myself...’
With a pained expression, Ye Tianling silently activated the *Turtle Breath Technique*, trying to lower his ’charm’.
"Uh—Grandfather... Elder, wasn’t it you who said... that to avoid your identity being discovered, I should call you ’Grandfather’?"
Wan Xuegui was utterly dumbfounded.
"? I told you to call ’Grandfather’?"
The blood-colored phantom, Wan Jimie, was also baffled. He looked at Wan Xuegui as if he were looking at an idiot.
"Yes, Grandfather... Elder. You have lived into your next life, protecting all this ti. You even passed on the Supre Dao of the *Ten Thousand Thoughts in One Heart Sword Technique*, which is how I was able to break through and finally see you, Elder."
Wan Xuegui was on the verge of tears. ’What is going on? Why are the two Elders contradicting each other?’
As for the authenticity of the two Elders, Wan Xuegui didn’t doubt either one.
"Wait a minute. You say that I, the Elder, have lived into a next life? And that I’ve been protecting you all this ti? How would I, the Elder, not know about this?"
Wan Jimie was deeply suspicious. His gaze locked onto Wan Xuegui, as if trying to determine whether he was lying.
"Yes, Elder... Elder, this grandson—no, this child understands now. You must have lived into your next life and lost so of your mories without realizing it."
Wan Xuegui began to fill in the gaps with his own imagination.
"...Xuegui Child, are you really this stupid, or are you just pretending? I, this Elder, have not yet undergone Transformation Dao. I rely fell into a deep slumber and have yet to truly awaken. Since I have not died, how could there possibly be a next life?"
Wan Jimie was also confused. After checking and re-checking carefully, he confird that his true body was still in a state of slumber—it had not died!
Since he had not died, how could there be any talk of a next life?
