“Teacher Zuo, what is the difference between ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ and ‘A Sword Breaks All Techniques’?”

Chen Mobai kept asking. Several documents on ‘A Sword Breaks All Techniques’ can be found in the realm of the immortals, after all, being a sword cultivator is a very stylish profession, attracting many followers.

However, very little is known about ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’. As Zuo Gong had said, since the bar for cultivation was so high, most of the documents on the subject are kept in the Sword Dao Association where only a select few could gain insight and learn.

“The difference isn’t much, both paths converge to the same destination in the end. Or you could say it’s the same path that splits at some point, giving us ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ and ‘A Sword Breaks All Techniques’.”

Zuo Gong looked a bit standoffish, but he was actually a good teacher. Since Chen Mobai had come to ask him, he definitely wouldn’t hold back. He extended his right index finger and started sketching in thin air.

He traced a horizontal line first, halfway through, the line began to branch out, extending upwards and downwards.

“For instance, this is ‘A Sword Breaks All Techniques’,” Zuo Gong mentioned, pointing at the line branching upwards.

“This is ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’,” He then pointed at the lower branch.

Following this, both branched lines drew a curve and eventually intersected at a point, merging to form another horizontal line.

“The divergence of both lies in the methods behind Sword Light. Do you know why the Sword Sha is cultivated?”

Zuo began to ask. He hadn’t spoken about this knowledge for over twenty years, and having to explain it to Chen Mobai now felt somewhat refreshing.

The last time he discussed this was when a graduate from the Daoist Academy had attained Sword Light and sought his counsel. He had casually explained it all.

The one before him now had already achieved the realm of Sword Light a few years ago. Teaching him felt more rewarding.

“It is because, although the power of the Sword Light is highly concentrated, it can easily be countered when faced with spells and magic artifacts specifically designed for defense.”

For instance, Chen Mobai’s previous ‘Purple Fire Sword Light’, when encountering water or earth attribute magic artifacts, could only exert sixty or seventy percent of its full power at most.

However, it was different after cultivating ‘Green Flames Sword Slaughter’. With the triple effects of burning, armor reduction, and blood ignition, even if the surface could not be broken, there is an invisible force specifically targeting Qi and the body that could seep through the defense, making it invincible.

“Exactly, my ‘Geng Metal Sword Demon’, for instance, takes piercing and speed to the extreme. This is because my cultivation technique was initially geared in this direction. The Sword Light I cultivated was specially used to refine the pure Sword Sha into an attribute of Geng Metal. But this approach presents an issue.”

At this point, Zuo Gong paused and looked at Chen Mobai, seemingly wanting to test him.

“Although Sword Sha is more powerful than Sword Light, it is still limited to the foundation set by the Sword Light in the cultivation technique. When faced with the same level of defensive power, it is still restrained and at a disadvantage.”

Chen Mobai pondered, combining hundreds of battle experiences he had from ‘Little Red Sky’, he mentioned a flaw he had perceived.

After he had held the top spot on the Heavenly Ladder ranking for a long time, many people tried to defeat him in one fell swoop and rise to fame. Chen Mobai’s toughest battle was against Nangong Xiu from Kunpeng Daoist Institute.

Nangong Xiu had mastered the ‘Rain’ part of the Sacred Six-Control Techniques, so he was able to whip up a storm against him. Under the constraint of the water attribute, his ‘Purple Fire Sword Light’ was almost completely extinguished.

However, Chen Mobai eventually relied on the Sun Raising Technique to ignite the ‘Green Sun Fire’, forcibly enhancing the power of the Sword Light, and broke the realm of rain with sheer force.

If it weren’t for the fact that Nangong Xiu was only at the third level of Foundation Establishment and his spiritual power was depleted in the end, Chen Mobai might not have been able to win that fight.

Zuo Gong, hearing Chen Mobai’s answer, glanced at him in surprise and thought to himself that this was indeed the most outstanding graduate from The Sword Control Department. He had even identified this subtle point.

“Yes, even though Sword Light is enhanced by the aura of Sword Sha, it is still limited by its attribute. My Geng Metal Sword Demon, when encountering the Primordial Yang Sword Evil, would need two strikes to counteract one. However, ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ doesn’t confront this problem. Do you know why?”

How am I supposed to know why?

Chen Mobai scratched his head helplessly, unable to figure out the answer. He had never encountered ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ before and had absolutely no knowledge about it.

“Please instruct me, Teacher Zuo.”

Zuo Gong nodded in satisfaction after finally stumping Chen Mobai. He no longer beat around the bush and proceeded to reveal the most crucial point.

“The Sword Light derived from the ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ path has no attribute, thus it can embody any attribute of nature. So if you encounter Sword Light with a water attribute, you can transform into the earth attribute Sword Light to counter it and vice versa. If you encounter a Sword Light containing the earth attribute, you can transform into the wood attribute Sword Light in response.”

“The Sword Light is free and versatile, able to adapt to any opponent by exerting the most constraining power against them.”

“Sword cultivators who are able to walk the path of ‘A Sword Gives Birth to All Techniques’ are referred to as ‘The Perfect Sword’; without any flaws.”

Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but open his eyes wide in disbelief.

So that’s how ‘Sword Light Transformation’ is used!

Doesn’t that mean that, having reached this realm, he would directly become a hexagonal sword cultivator?
