War Ancestor frowned, as if stumped by the question.
Relying purely on intuition to act, and believing one’s intuition to be correct, it is indeed difficult to provide a reason why.
But Xu Xiaoshou once called himself a ’martial master,’ and transmitting knowledge and resolving doubts is the true nature of a teacher. After pondering, War Ancestor said:
"If I show kindness, I do not seek anything in return."
"But I have seen people who show kindness to but expect sothing in return. When they don’t get what they want, they repay with harm several tis the kindness."
"So I understand that the kindness used as leverage for a reward is essentially not a kindness bestowed upon but rather a kindness they bestow upon themselves, for their own sake."
"I rely receive so of the benefits in the process, but I’m forced to pay a price that perhaps I wasn’t very willing to pay. It’s a kind of..."
War Ancestor found himself speechless, unable to utter a single word for quite so ti.
However, Xu Xiaoshou understood and sighed deeply, his eyes and brows clearing as he said, "Moral coercion."
War Ancestor’s eyes lit up.
"Exactly!"
Yes, such a simple principle—why was I hesitating just now?
If that digression was true, Dao Ancestor Yi Ji was not exerting effort for himself but was seeking soone who could withstand the great catastrophe together.
Even if Dao Qiongcang allied with him and helped him cultivate the River of Intent, it just accelerated the process within manageable limits.
From the beginning to the end, from Shi Ming Nuo’s perspective, he never cared whether the owner of the black wheel was Xu Xiaoshou, Zhou Tianshen, or Zhao Tianli.
In Dao Qiongcang’s view, if Xu Xiaoshou hadn’t displayed the abilities he should have, hadn’t posed a threat, and lacked the deterrent necessary to ally, he might have been used to death long ago.
Similar to Yan Wuse and Rao Yaoyao, there might be regrets, but absolutely no pity.
"Wu Bao, I know now."
Xu Xiaoshou nodded, suppressing this issue and the killing intent while telling himself to adapt to the situation.
From the outset, he never truly trusted that Dao-nad person, always treating him as a major enemy.
As things have developed, it’s just slightly more troubleso than expected but doesn’t change the outco of everyone being enemies.
When forced, just kill, and it’s done.
"I am going to seek Enlightennt."
He stepped back onto the Body Dao Disc, and with a clear killing intent, Xu Xiaoshou’s Dao heart also beca a few degrees purer.
He was never truly isolated and helpless.
In this world, there are still those who would roast him over a fire but actually always think of shouldering everything with their own strength.
That would be Bazhun’an, who would call him ’Lord Shou’ at critical monts.
When all roads are blocked, Shi Ming Nuo would be the last escape route. As long as he finds Bazhun’an here...
One person can’t kill his way back.
Two people, can’t we just go on a killing spree?
I’ll handle the massacre, and Bazhun’an will handle the laughter, casually winning the fight!
"Add more! Add more!"
Following the Extended Passive Skill, Xu Xiaoshou continued to seek Enlightennt.
Without thinking, he reflexively pushed the only Status Passive Skill to the extre.
"Swallow the Mountains and Rivers (final-stage)."
Then, there were the Expertise Passive Skills, a total of four:
"Cooking Expert (final-stage)."
"Weaving Expertise (final-stage)."
"Drawing Expertise (final-stage)."
"Sword Technique Expertise (final-stage)."
The final-stage of these four Expertise Passive Skills brought an insight into the Great Path, no less than the Great Dao Disc’s super Taoization.
"Way of Fire, Divine Path, The Way of Star, Art of Spiritual Array, Way of Creation, Path of Illusion and Reality, Way of the Sword..."
The content encompassed was too vast!
Particularly, when Sword Technique Expertise reached its final-stage, Xu Xiaoshou experienced an earth-shattering transformation.
He subconsciously glanced at the Way of the Sword Disc, noticing the number had changed at so point.
"Way of the Sword Disc (99%)."
Indeed!
He had this intuition earlier.
Bazhun’an’s Sword , the philosophy of return to zero, was imparted to him unreservedly. Even if not completely mastered, he had digested at least 99%.
Yet, the Way of the Sword Disc remained unchanged at 90%, likely not due to his own shortcomings, but because Nuozu was so lacking, having never witnessed a swordsmanship genius like Bazhun’an.
Even the Way of the Sword Disc couldn’t judge the standard of Bazhun’an’s one step to return to zero.
Now with the black wheel upgraded, his Sword Technique Expertise improved significantly, yet the Fire Path Wheel had not changed with the Cooking Expert’s enhancent.
Perhaps it sensed that his application of the Way of Fire, Life Path, and the Path of Cooking was not yet proficient, resulting in minimal change.
But for sothing like the Way of the Sword, with his profound mastery reaching its peak, even the dumbest wheel should assess the host’s formidable swordsmanship.
"No, crazy Nuozu."
"Looking at it now, this wheel is still too rudintary."
"Once my Path is complete, I will create an ’Active Wheel.’ I will also ascend to godhood, and then you’ll see what a grand gesture truly is!"
Xu Xiaoshou chuckled, brushing it off.
Suddenly, he recalled the concept ntioned by Dao Qiongcang, seemingly categorizing the Great Path Extre Realm at 99%, where a Great Dao River could be ford.
However, it divides into Combat-Type Great Path and Insight-Type Great Path.
The forr without a river, the latter with one.
"Is Dao Qiongcang truly correct?"
Even crazy Nuozu had flaws; what right did Elder Dao the Flamboyant have to surpass Nuozu? Even Dao Ancestor Yi Ji lacked the deanor of the leader of the Four Corners combination!
Then, if Dao Qiongcang made an error in judgnt.
Bazhun’an might not have failed to condense the Way of the Sword River; he just had no ti to settle his mind and digest it.
Could it be that in a place like Shi Ming Nuo, with more ti, he could condense a river from a Combat-Type Great Path like the Way of the Sword, unlocking the Twin Rivers of the Great Dao ahead of ti?
