Chapter 861: Chapter 7: Hidden Sword_2 Chapter 861: Chapter 7: Hidden Sword_2 Of course, a cultivator with a solid foundational base could possibly cultivate multiple destined treasures simultaneously.
Even if a single destined treasure is damaged, it wouldn’t cause too much harm to them.
However, such people are after all a minority.
The All-Law Pulse cultivators are one of these minorities.
That’s why he wasn’t really opposed to it.
After so thought, he couldn’t help saying, “If this blade is unusable, wouldn’t it be possible to switch to another blade?”
“Uh…”
Upon hearing Wang Ba’s question, Ji Yuan was taken aback.
It seed that he hadn’t considered this issue before.
...
But he quickly recovered and said with a wry smile:
“Saber Cultivators, devout to the end with their blades, once one is chosen, it is ‘with the blade, the person exists; without the blade, the person perishes.’ How could one change it at will?
If one is not sincere, the blade will not be sincere…
However, Junior Brother is not a Saber Cultivator, so this is not a problem for you.”
Wang Ba was pleased upon hearing this.

Although he had forged his foundation with the Five Elents and bolstered it with Heavenly Dao Foundation Establishnt, within the Sect, there were few with a foundational base as robust as his.
Those who could surpass him, perhaps only his ntor, Master Yao Wudi in his youth.
Regrettably, while his foundational base was strong, in his zeal to achieve the Golden Core, he had focused solely on improving his cultivation base.
As for spells and combat techniques associated with cultivation thods like the Green Emperor Kind God Tactics and the Cloud-Water True Vacuum Technique, he had not been distracted by practicing them.
Those arts and spells were different from ordinary ones; they required resources to cultivate.
As a result, he had an amazing foundational base but was utterly unable to utilize it.
Not until he t Ji Yuan and integrated the insights from the Saber Dao that he learned from him with his own experiences from using the spirit knife over the years, did he manage to fully manifest and even amplify his foundational strength.
Therefore, the Saber-controlling Technique had beco an extrely important thod for him.
Thinking of this, he suddenly beca curious:
“May I ask Senior Brother, what exactly is the essence of the Saber Dao practiced at Tiandao Peak?”
“The essence?”
This question from Wang Ba caused Ji Yuan to pause.
After pondering for a mont, he slowly said with a hint of hesitation:
“Everyone’s understanding of the Saber Dao is different, and so the conclusion may vary.
In my view, there is no fundantal difference between the Saber Dao, Sword Dao, or Spear Dao.
They are all about using the tool to understand oneself.
If we speak of essence, it might all co down to the soul.”
“The soul?”
Wang Ba was startled by this answer.
It was sowhat unexpected for him.
“Indeed, the soul.”
Ji Yuan casually gestured, and a Blade Weapon infused with a faint aura of Class IV materialized in his palm.
He then casually took out a Class II sword energy from his Storage Treasure.
“Look, Junior Brother, aside from the shape, what is the difference between this saber and sword?”
Wang Ba glanced at the saber and sword in the other’s hand and shook his head slightly:
“There doesn’t seem to be any difference.”
Ji Yuan smiled, and this ti, with a flick of his hand, a fierce and strong aura suddenly surged from the Blade Weapon, while the sword energy remained unchanged.
“How about now?” Ji Yuan asked.
Wang Ba concentrated his gaze, scanning the saber and sword, and soon a light shone in his eyes:
“Does Senior Brother an that the difference between a saber and a sword is not in the blade itself, but in the person?”
“Junior Brother really has an exceptional understanding!” Ji Yuan sincerely praised him, then continued:
“For mortals, a saber and a sword differ in form and usage due to differing shapes and specifications.
However, for a cultivator, the distinction between saber, spear, axe, and other weapons is probably nothing more than a thought.
If I wish, I could use a sword, a spear, or any form of Blade Weapon.
While the power may vary with the magic treasure’s grade and its crafting thod, the essence is the sa.”
“It is determined by the cultivator’s will.”
“It is also a reflection of the cultivator’s will.”
“And where does the will co from?
Naturally, it cos from the soul.”
Listening to Ji Yuan’s explanation, Wang Ba instantly had an epiphany:
“So the essence of the Saber Dao and Sword Dao is the soul?”
“It’s rely one perspective,” Ji Yuan casually remarked.
Wang Ba did not take this lightly.
The path of All-Law Pulse cultivators is to see through the surface to grasp the essence.
Otherwise, if one were to practice a new tradition upon encountering it, the myriad of traditions within the Wan Xiang Sect would exhaust the All-Law Pulse cultivators to death.
Having achieved the Golden Core and as his realm beca steadily more stable over ti, he also had to start considering integrating new essences.
He had intended to see if the Saber Dao could be integrated as a new essence, but at this point, it seed obvious that the Saber Dao was not a tradition that directly reached the essence.
Nevertheless, Wang Ba was quite pleased.
He had understood the direction his cultivation should head towards.
“The essences I have integrated so far are tal, wood, water, fire, earth for the first five.”
“The sixth is arranged by my master: wind.
The seventh could integrate thunder, the eighth could integrate Yuanci, and the ninth is probably going to be the soul.”
“If the soul is an essence, can the physical body be counted as well?”
“If the physical body is included, then that would be the tenth essence…
Counting all that, there is still much to accomplish within the Golden Core Realm.”
According to what Master Yao Wudi had said, the Golden Core Realm is the last window of opportunity for All-Law Pulse cultivators to integrate other cultivation thods.
Despite the significantly higher difficulty compared to integration during Foundation Establishnt, there is at least so hope.
Once one reaches the Nascent Soul stage, integration becos almost impossible.
“If Junior Brother wishes to learn, I can pass it on to you right now,” Ji Yuan offered.
His words instantly snapped Wang Ba back to attention.
