Li Si Chan happily left, and Ling Han lay on the bed to rest.
It was not that he did not want to immediately start concocting the Second Star Pill, it was just that he had never imagined that he would actually manage to obtain such a valuable spiritual medicine on his first day in Imperial City — how could he possibly have other additional ingredients at hand? As a result, the only option for him now was to wait until the next day to go to the Heaven's Medicine Pavilion to purchase the full set of necessary ingredients before he could proceed to the next step.
Comfortably, he still had to slightly refine his own courtyard. After all, he had to stay here for at least a few years, so it was necessary to create some restrictions in the surrounding area. This will be one of the hidden cards up his sleeve.
Meanwhile, Hu Niu lay beside his feet like a giant cat, and very quickly, the sound of his breathing extended and became calmer. But if there is a slight disturbance, he will soon be alerted to wake up, his teeth sharp, and growling.
Ling Han believed that with Liu Yu Tong's influence in the Academy, he would be able to find him soon. Thus, Ling Han did not need to think about anything else, and went to sleep very peacefully.
The night passed in silence, and the next morning, after Ling Han prepared breakfast and filled his own stomach and Hu Niu, he headed to officially greet his teacher. This is the basic respect that a student should have towards his teacher.
He pushed the door open and entered to see that Mo Gao was practicing his sword technique. However, it was very strange. His right hand held the sword while his left hand held firmly. There was absolutely no movement from him.
Did he practice his sword technique, or practice some kind of Qi support technique?
"Yes!" Meanwhile Hu Niu revealed an extremely defensive expression. His hand was firmly pressed against the ground, his entire body slightly raised, his small mouth opened, and there was a ferocious light flashing in his eyes. He is ready to move at any time.
Ling Han was surprised. The little girl would only show such behavior when she sensed the threat, but the problem was, was this Mo Gao move so threatening?
'wait!'
Ling Han's eyes slowly widened. His heavenly feelings seemed to have detected something unimaginable. And that was the aura that came out of Mo Gao — it was very mysterious. The feeling was somewhat familiar to him, yet he could not really understand what exactly it was.
Sword . . . true, it has to do with his sword.
"You're here," said Mo Gao, "too accompany me in my sword practice."
"Teknik pedang apa ini?" Ling Han bertanya.
"This is not a sword technique, but an invincible sword!" Mo Gao stated superbly.
Meanwhile, Ling Han's heart was beating fast. He had sensed an extremely mysterious feeling from the aura that Mo Gao had given him just now, and was now obtaining a somewhat more mysterious means from the latter, though, Ling Han felt as if he had understood something, although it was still not very clear.
"Does the sword of invincibility exist in this world?" He asked .
"The sword in the hands of an invincible swordsman would be an invincible sword!" Mo Gao said, "I am the sword itself, the heart of the sword is brightly lit. Being able to break through every attack, and destroy every attack!"
"Hong," Ling Han felt as if his entire mind was shaking, giving rise to a towering tsunami wave.
Heart Sword!
No wonder he felt a sense of mystery yet this profound feeling was so familiar to him; so Mo Gao was actually cultivating the Sword Heart.
He was not the slightest bit suspicious of Mo Gao airing, because the overall level of martial arts in the Rain Country was really too low. Only by being able to form Sword Qi will you be named ruler. No one had managed to form Sword Point at all, so how could Sword Heart possibly be?
The heart was a brightly lit sword; it was the highest level of sword arts. With Sword Heart, all of the attacks of this world would be easily understood and destroyed. One only needed to wave his sword once, and all attacks would naturally fall apart.
Who would have ever thought that a swordsman at the mere level of the ninth layer Element Gathering Tier would be able to somewhat touch the level of a Heart Sword?
No wonder if Mo Gao, an obvious genius in his youth – otherwise, he would not have managed to enroll to Hu Yang Academy in the first place – suddenly "go crazy". In fact, he was not angry at all, it was just that he had already started cultivating Sword Heart at that moment.
A gloomy respect started to live on Ling Han. This is Sword Heart. Even in his last life, not many elite warriors had managed to form him. But as long as one managed to form Sword Heart, he was not only invincible among those at the same cultivation level, either, he could also ignore the colossal abyss of different cultivation levels to kill powerful enemies at higher levels . That's very feared.
He clasped his hands together, and said, "Please share your wisdom, Master."
Mo Gao was a little surprised. Aside from himself, everyone in the Academy thought that he was uncomfortable. Even he himself, in these ten plus years, would sometimes doubt whether he had made a mistake in life, and whether he would actually be able to create an invincible sword.
And this young man, without the slightest hesitation, was actually willing to join him in sword training. The deep trust this unknown young man had in him!
When he thought of this, Mo Gao actually felt a little touched!
He, a swordsman with a sword as his only friend, completely isolated himself from others. In the blink of an eye, ten plus years had already passed. He had spent it on sword training, sword training, and even more sword training. And now, a young man actually held awe and trust in him, causing him to suddenly become excited.
This is a good disciple, he should definitely teach this disciple well!
Mo Gao thought so in his heart, and began to speak endlessly, "The sword art is like someone with a noble character, generous and without the slightest bit of vile character …" it is an understanding that he has gone through ten more years of extreme focus and this hard training. He didn't even care if Ling Han could understand or not, and just read everything he knew and understood.
However Ling Han became more and more astonished. Even though his cultivation level had dropped, his comprehension was still one of the powerful Heaven Tier warriors like him, so naturally, he could understand all of what Mo Gao had said.
And it was precisely because he could understand everything that astonished him.
. . . Mo Gao's comprehension of swords had already completely surpassed his cultivation level. Even if he hadn't reached the level of 'bright-flaming sword heart', he was only a step away from grasping Sword Heart.
In a place with such a low level of martial arts as a whole, and with himself who was at the ninth level of the Element Gathering Tier layer, was, his fingers actually managed to touch the door that led to Sword Heart; how could Ling Han not be surprised?
When Mo Gao finished speaking, Ling Han just stood there without moving at all, silently digesting everything he heard.
For every swordsman, this lecture was extremely valuable!
This was not a sword technique, nor was it a martial arts technique at the high Heaven or Earth Level. It was just a lecture on the individual's understanding of sword arts. Yet it was an explanation very close to the core of the art, directly touching the base.
Of course, even if a swordsman managed to form the Sword Heart, the level that any individual swordsman could understand would be different, he said, because the Heart Sword was based on each swordsman's understanding of sword arts. But listening to such a lecture was very helpful to Ling Han who, at that moment, had only formed five flashes of Sword Qi. It was as if there was a golden path unfolding before him, guiding his progress forward.
Hu Niu immediately looked bored. His hand held his ear, and he looked very sleepy.
"Hey!" Ling Han suddenly jumped up, the sword hanging on his waist leaving its scabbard. He quickly turned around on the spot and swung his sword in waves.
Five flashes of Sword Qi danced without a hitch. "Shua, shua, shua," a cold light appeared and flickered. But a moment later, another sharp flash of Sword Qi was completely formed, and merged with the previous five Sword Qi flashes.
The sixth glint of Sword Qi!
This Sword Qi glint quickly grew, becoming longer and wider, and finally looking no different from the other five Sword Qi flashes.
"Thank you very much, Master!" Ling Han raised his clasped hand towards Mo Gao and thanked him. It was not as simple as just forming a flash of Sword Qi. He would be able to benefit from Mo Gao's lectures throughout his life. If he managed to grasp Sword Heart in this life, then Mo Gao's lecture would at least help him save half of the time he needed to be able to reach that step.
He never thought this would happen. The only reason why he had come to Hu Yang Academy was to make Ling Dong Xing happy, yet he would actually gain an unexpected advantage.
He earns a lot!
