Chapter 1789: Spend My 250

When he learned that the elder’s strength had actually touched God Realm, Tu Hu’s heart raced uncontrollably.

He realized that he had stumbled upon a game-changing opportunity.

The images of two veteran players emerged in his mind.

Known on the forum as: Suffering Brothers.

The recent Peak of the Stars event just ended, and the Divine Hall Guild won the championship without suspense.

In popular discussion threads, players mentioned whether individual competitive events would be held in the future.

There were many players analyzing who would take first place if individual competitions were held in the future.

It was certain that the champion of team battles, the Divine King, couldn’t even rank among the top ten thousand in individual competitions.

But it is widely believed that among the favorites to win is: the Suffering Brothers.

After all, the title of the Phantom God in civil wars has never been a joke.

And the elder was obviously similar to the Suffering Brothers’ teacher “Asceticism,” who also found a unique Rule Road.

The potential was limitless.

He could also confirm that what Mr. Cang Xuan Sr. comprehended was the Power of Suppression, a system recognized as the most useless among the player factions.

However, there was a fundamental difference between the two.

Players needed to consume sacrificial power as a lead to painstakingly pry open the Emotional Power, knocking on the door of the Suppression System.

While Mr. Cang Xuan Sr. purely relied on his mind and willpower to refine and sublimate emotions, finally nurturing his own sword momentum suppression.

This meant that each seemingly plain sword move of Mr. Cang Xuan Sr. contained terrifying rule-level effectiveness.

To block with a horizontal sword didn’t rely on the sword body to collide with incoming strength, but established the absolute rule “This strike shall be blocked” in the sword momentum area the instant the blocking action was completed.

No matter how astonishing and turbulent the opponent’s attack or how frenzied the energy, as long as intensity couldn’t crush Mr. Cang Xuan Sr.’s sword momentum strength from a rule level, it was like waves crashing onto rocks and would surely be blocked.

And to strike plainly wasn’t to touch the objects it wished to pierce with the sword body.

Where the sword point aimed, rules were rewritten.

With an announcement in the domain: This sword will hit, hit means death.

Unless the target’s defense is of the same rule-level or is far stronger in intensity, capable of immune to rule-level suppression.

Otherwise, any solid armor or tough flesh would crumble like thin ice under the sun at a touch.

Every move rewrites the rules of heaven and earth.

With these two sword momentum moves, one covers defense invincibility, the other attack invincibility.

If he could master these two moves, he might effortlessly slay through the Ancient God Arena and become the new Champion Fighter, thoroughly exploiting the Ancient God.

But Tu Hu quickly calmed down and thought of a question.

How exactly can sword momentum inheritance truly be comprehended?

Simply wielding the sword according to Mr. Cang Xuan Sr.’s requirements won’t grasp its essence at all.

It’s completely a futile effort.

Just as the elder said: Enlightenment takes but a moment; without it, a lifetime.

He looked down at the Guardian Heavy Sword in his hand, trying to mimic the elder’s stance and mindset, swinging the sword over and over again.

Block, strike.

Block, strike.

But even if the actions can be imitated vividly and the will to guard is sincere enough, it was still just its form.

His sword remained ordinary iron.

It relied on muscle strength, at best delivering Qi Blood Energy-infused slashes.

Far from Mr. Cang Xuan Sr.’s level of “My heart is doctrine, my sword is rule,” separated by an insurmountable chasm.

“Emotion… Rule…” Tu Hu murmured, brow furrowed.

He recalled the teachings of the Liver Emperor Group instructors and the analyses of the research party masters on the forum.

At the core of the Suppression System is finding and releasing an extremely pure Emotion Momentum, forming a domain.

This is also the path Mr. Cang Xuan Sr. took, by refining his “sword momentum” to the utmost, directly defining the surrounding laws.

The question is, how should this sword momentum be cultivated?

Merely swinging the sword day after day, feeling the mastery of sword moves increase, is barely scratching the surface of the rule threshold.

This is like endlessly practicing addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, but hoping to suddenly grasp the essence of calculus someday.

He knows the elder’s teachings on “infusing emotion” are key, but how exactly should it be done?

Is it injecting emotions like anger, guardian, destruction into the sword as fuel?

Through these days of training, he had some sentiments, attempting to swing the sword with emotions, but apart from boosting the power of sword moves through emotional force, there was no qualitative change.

Does it require a certain profound experience as a lead?

Just like Mr. Cang Xuan Sr., who finally nurtured an awe-inspiring sword momentum after experiencing the defense of Martial City, the collapse of civilization, and two hundred years of solitary slaughter.

But he was just a player; even though his life was filled with battles, it was far from the epic scars of civilization life and death.

This inheritance feels impossible to grasp fully.

“What exactly is missing?”

Tu Hu ceased swinging the sword, looking at the peaceful illusion scenery before him, feeling lost in the face of such immense opportunity.

The endpoint was clearly visible, yet he couldn’t find the steps leading to it.

When uncertain of what to do, seek guidance, Tu Hu decisively spoke:

“Brother Guide, I need your help. If I just keep wielding the sword like this, how long will it take to comprehend sword momentum?”

The Guiding Water Ball floating beside him responded indifferently:

[Not long, only about 102 years and 3 months. If you increase the intensity of wielding the sword, it can speed up.]
