Inside the Hidden Blade Hall, with no outsiders present, Gao Xuan asked Tie Yuan curiously, "Can I give it a try?"
Tie Yuan was quite generous, "Go ahead and try. Our inner sect disciples all like to test their strength with this spear."
Nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine jin, what kind of weight is that!
Even an Innate Martial Artist might not be able to lift it. Even if they could, just from the way they hold the spear, one could judge their skill level.
The Suru Mountain Spear isn’t afraid of being played with, just afraid you’ll hurt yourself if you don’t handle it well.
Tie Yuan was a bit curious about how far Gao Xuan could go.
He couldn’t see that Gao Xuan was already a Martial Saint. Blood like silver rcury was an internal transformation, and Gao Xuan deliberately restrained his vitality, preventing others from seeing his true cultivation easily.
With Tie Yuan’s permission, Gao Xuan went over and gently caressed the Suru Mountain Spear. The surface of the spear was carved with intricate patterns, but these patterns were neither engraved in relief nor recessed; you couldn’t feel them with your hand.
These patterns seed to form complex script, and Gao Xuan couldn’t understand what was written. But these characters carried an ancient, tiless aura.
Looking at these characters, one’s mind naturally calms down.
Vaguely, Gao Xuan seed to see an imposing, endless Divine Mountain, surrounded by countless worlds. This Divine Mountain was the central axis of the worlds.
No matter how the three thousand worlds co and go, the Divine Mountain remains unmoved.
Ti, space, life—all existences and powers cannot shake this Divine Mountain.
Gao Xuan had an epiphany: this Suru Mountain Spear was not dead; the inscriptions within it were the spiritual imprints left by a Martial God.
The Suru Mountain Spear Technique is actually secondary.
As long as one comprehends the unparalleled Martial God’s spiritual imprint in this spear, they can establish a connection with it, truly unleashing its miraculous transformations.
Perhaps, inside the Suru Mountain Spear, it wasn’t just one Martial God but the spiritual imprints left by many Martial Gods. Or perhaps it was the spiritual realm contained within the Suru Mountain Spear itself.
In short, to wield the Suru Mountain Spear, one needs to comprehend its spear intent and resonate with the spear.
This requires not only insight but a martial artist’s personal temperant to be in harmony with the Suru Mountain Spear.
The Suru Mountain Spear represents endless, profound, majestic, eternal fortitude, with no force capable of annihilating it.
Just in terms of realm, the Suru Mountain Spear far surpasses the Celestial Soldier Dao’s Secret Technique.
The Celestial Soldier Strategy speaks of human change. The Xingtian Sword speaks of striving prowess. The Thirteen Grand Protectors’ Cross Training only speaks of indestructible golden bodies, dominating the contemporary.
The Suru Mountain Spear, however, transcends fate, pursuing eternity.
The Aurora Sword that Gao Xuan himself learned, the Five Elents Twelve Techniques, including the chanical Combat Body, Eight Extres Divine Weapon, etc., these unparalleled Secret Techniques that traverse the Star River are rely combat skills.
In terms of realm, they fall far short of the Suru Mountain Spear.
However, precisely because the Suru Mountain Spear’s realm is so high, it makes it difficult for people to grasp.
After all, human perception is limited, wisdom is finite. We can only roughly conceptualize such vast and abstract realms, but cannot grasp them.
Let alone the strong in this world, who are still grounded, lacking accurate understanding of the sun, moon, and stars. Not to ntion subjects as grand as the cosmos, space-ti, and fate.
The Suru Mountain Spear was made from Extraterrestrial teorite Iron, crafted by an extrely powerful Martial God. This Martial God had an imnse curiosity about the cosmos and fate.
This understanding and curiosity about the world transford into the realm of the Suru Mountain Spear.
Simply put, much of this realm is based on fantasy, without real foundation; hence, it’s ethereal and elusive, and future generations cannot grasp it.
It’s like boasting children whose boasts don’t even follow logical reasoning, entirely based on their simplest understanding of the world.
Gao Xuan understood the realm of the Suru Mountain Spear because he had sufficient insight and wisdom, even surpassing that of the Suru Mountain Spear.
Having reincarnated, he had a profound understanding of ti-space, the cosmos, and fate. However, he had not yet systematically summarized these understandings.
Although Gao Xuan considered himself a Martial Arts Grandmaster, he clearly understood that he lacked a passion for martial arts—a deep-seated sincerity.
Martial arts, to him, were rely a form of power, similar to the chanical Combat Body and Eight Extres Divine Weapon, essentially tools.
Despite becoming a god for divine power, he harbored no real obsession with becoming a god.
For example, he would choose a different path if becoming a demon could grant the sa formidable power.
In facing the Suru Mountain Spear, Gao Xuan for the first ti felt the earnest sincerity of the original spear master. Although simplistic, this sincere devotion to martial arts surpassed his own by far.
As he caressed the Suru Mountain Spear, he instantly comprehended the spear’s realm.
Observing, Tie Yuan suddenly had a strange feeling. At that mont, as Gao Xuan touched the spear, he seed perfectly harmonious with it, as if he were the true master of the Suru Mountain Spear.
Tie Yuan couldn’t help but shake his head; this thought was too odd. No matter how much Gao Xuan resonated with the Suru Mountain Spear, the spear could not be given to him.
Among the Mountain Character Sect’s Three Great Divine Spears, Kunlun ranks first, Suru Mountain Spear ranks second. Such divine objects must not fall into outsiders’ hands.
At this mont, Gao Xuan had already lifted the Suru Mountain Spear with one hand.
With his current Martial Saint level strength, he still felt his body sink. No one else could lift the Suru Mountain Spear in such a manner.
Tie Yuan’s mouth gaped open, for Gao Xuan stood steadily while holding the spear with one hand. It wasn’t just imnse strength; it was his body’s stability.
This ant Gao Xuan’s feet had to exert ten thousand jin of force to stand firmly.
Tie Yuan glanced at Gao Xuan’s feet, and his shoes remained intact. This defied common sense.
A Martial Arts Grandmaster, regardless of strength, channels force through internal acupoints and activated vitality. This force, when externalized, requires a point of leverage—a place to exert force.
Therefore, a Martial Arts Grandmaster must keep their feet grounded to truly exert power.
But Gao Xuan lifted the Suru Mountain Spear without his feet enduring the force, which could only an one thing...
Tie Yuan couldn’t help but open his mouth wide in astonishnt. This guy has beco a Martial Saint in just two months!
Tie Yuan’s mind felt like it was going to explode, filled with thoughts: Impossible, impossible, impossible...
Advancing to Martial Saint in two months, where in the world does such a thing exist? Does such a thing even exist?
Gao Xuan didn’t pay attention to Tie Yuan. His blood and energy flowed around him as he spun the Suru Mountain Spear with one hand.
The Suru Mountain Spear spun lightly, but the deep roar it emitted resonated continuously within the hall.
Tie Yuan, with his mouth agape, felt a whirlwind sweeping through, filling his mouth entirely. Even though he tried hard to stabilize his body, he was still staggeringly pushed back by the strong wind.
The gusts from the swinging Suru Mountain Spear, without even touching it, were beyond what Tie Yuan could withstand.
Gao Xuan, holding the Suru Mountain Spear, felt for the first ti what "indestructible" truly ant.
The Godslaying Sword and the Hongyi Sword, while sharp, were far from being indestructible.
But in this world, perhaps nothing can withstand a thrust from the Suru Mountain Spear.
Gao Xuan suddenly understood the feeling of the Thirteen Grand Protectors Golden Body; this was the dominance over the land, invincible wherever it went.
Yes, this was the feeling.
Gao Xuan stood the long spear upright, mimicking the posture of the Thirteen Grand Protectors Golden Body. He better understood the significance of this stance—standing here is like holding up the sky, an endless force reigning supre in the world.
This kind of power didn’t even need to be displayed; just standing with the spear could intimidate masses of enemies.
There was no one else in the Hidden Blade Hall, only Tie Yuan.
Tie Yuan was so frightened by Gao Xuan’s aura of being one with the spear that he was dumbfounded. His mind even lost the ability to think, left only with fear and dread, wanting to kneel down desperately.
At this mont, it seed that the posture of fully prostrating was the most stable, avoiding accidental falls.
The stubbornness of an Innate Martial Artist kept Tie Yuan standing. Even though his knees trembled, urging him to kneel quickly, he clenched his teeth and stood fiercely, stubbornly.
Gao Xuan wasn’t concerned with Tie Yuan; he was entirely imrsed in the mont of insight.
"So, this is the utmost sincerity towards Martial Dao, nurturing the highest Martial Arts Divine Intent from this sincerity. This is a Martial God..."
Gao Xuan felt the invisible bottleneck breaking, his mind clearing up. Looking at the world anew, it brought another sensation.
"Succeeded."
Even Gao Xuan himself didn’t expect to break through so quickly, catching him sowhat by surprise.
But this feeling was truly wonderful, though he still needed so ti to stabilize his foundation.
At this mont, the Suru Mountain Spear was no longer essential. Even though it was a peerless divine spear.
Gao Xuan casually set down the Suru Mountain Spear, feeling a bit of regret in his heart.
However, he valued the friendship; Tie Yuan and Tie Yue treated him well, and he couldn’t take what others cherished.
Had Tie Yuan and Tie Yue been aggressive back then, it would have been perfect. With both sides forming a deadly feud, he could directly kill and seize the spear...
Gao Xuan walked over and patted the still-trembling Tie Yuan: "Are you cold? So weak, is it because your wife is too strong..."
Tie Yuan finally snapped out of it, forcing a dry laugh and trying to make a joke, but his throat was so parched that he couldn’t speak a word.
"Hahaha..."
Gao Xuan laughed and said: "Take good care of yourself; today I ca with interest and left satisfied. Next ti, I’ll buy you a drink..."
Before Tie Yuan could speak, Gao Xuan flicked his long sleeve and had already floated away gracefully.
By the ti Tie Yuan ca to his senses, Gao Xuan was long gone. Standing at the door of the Hidden Blade Hall, he couldn’t help but sigh; this guy has beco a Martial Saint, alas, comparing oneself to others is infuriating...
He also felt secretly relieved; luckily, Gao Xuan didn’t ask for the Suru Mountain Spear.
Refusing a Martial Saint’s request directly was sothing he feared he wouldn’t have the courage for. Besides, the Mountain Character Sect currently didn’t have a Martial Saint.
If they greatly offended Gao Xuan, the future would be tough for the Mountain Character Sect.
The Six Paths and Eight Sects, though all peers in the sa field, still compete with each other, maintaining only a facade of harmony.
Just like the Ten Directions Dao and Taiyi Dao, it’s because they have two Martial Saints that they are particularly strong.
Celestial Soldier Dao originally had one Martial Saint, and now with Gao Xuan becoming a Martial Saint, the balance within the court is about to be disrupted.
Tie Yuan realized the severity of this matter and hurried to find his master Tie Yue, recounting the entire incident thoroughly.
After listening, Tie Yue’s expression was also sowhat serious, "Are you sure Gao Xuan has beco a Martial Saint?"
Being formally questioned by Tie Yue made Tie Yuan a bit unsure, "I think he’s beco a Martial Saint. This posture of casually taking up the Suru Mountain Spear, only a Martial Saint can do that."
As Tie Yuan spoke, he imitated Gao Xuan’s action of grabbing the spear.
Tie Yue, after watching, pondered silently. Indeed, only a Martial Saint could effortlessly lift the Suru Mountain Spear with such ease.
For this, Tie Yue even went to the Hidden Blade Hall to check the Suru Mountain Spear. He tried to use this posture to pick up the spear, managing it barely, but it was impossible to do it as casually and effortlessly as Gao Xuan.
Tie Yue sighed, "Celestial Soldier Dao having another Martial Saint should be a good thing. Zuo Bubei and Luo Tiangang have been causing too much trouble lately..."
"Will there be an issue with the Xingtian Grand Ceremony?" Tie Yuan asked worriedly.
Tie Yue shook his head and said, "Even without the newly promoted Martial Saint Gao Xuan, there are still Sun Shangdao and Qi Donglai. Zuo Bubei and Luo Tiangang won’t be able to cause trouble."
Seeing Tie Yue so confident, Tie Yuan couldn’t help but ask, "If Zuo Bubei becos a Martial God, wouldn’t he be invincible?"
Tie Yue replied dismissively, "A Martial God, huh, that’s not easy. If Zuo Bubei beca a Martial God, naturally he would have the final say, even changing the emperor if he wished..."
