Chapter 1790: Chapter 458: Spend 2.5 Million for Me

"Pfft, how could I live that long...?" Just as he was about to joke, Tu Hu’s expression suddenly froze as he realized another layer of meaning in Brother Guide’s words:

"Brother Guide, why is it that what you say is different from Mr. Cang Xuan Sr.’s words? How can you have a clear understanding of the time for enlightenment?"

[It seems you’re not foolish. What you need to understand is that the Guardian Sword given to you by the shadow is the crystallization of the Cang Xuan Sword Force. He was a peerless swordsman, but not a competent teacher. He didn’t know how to gradually teach, and the only thing he could do was to peel and forge all his enlightenment about the Sword Momentum, and eventually turn it into the sword in your hand.]

[You can understand it this way: the Guardian Sword in your hand is one-third of the complete Sword Dao Rules. Every time you swing the sword, attempt to block or thrust, your mind, your will, and even your physical strength are resonating with this rule. And with each resonance, extremely tiny rule fragments integrate into your will.]

[Therefore, every sword you swing here is not mere repetition, but inheritance. The more swords you swing, the more focused your mind and spirit become, and the stronger the resonance with the Guardian Sword, the faster the inheritance progresses... You wouldn’t really believe that the faint golden sword gleam that appears when you swing the sword is due to your deepened understanding, do you?]

Tu Hu was completely stunned.

Instinctively, he lowered his head, looking at the gentle, faint golden glow on the heavy sword.

It was only then that he understood that the old man’s demand for him to repetitively swing the sword was an inherent part of the inheritance process.

He didn’t need to start from scratch to comprehend some rule from thin air. What he needed to do was to absorb and merge the existing Guardian Sword Rule in the sword like an heir digesting an inheritance.

But there was still an unexplained doubt in his heart, so he continued to ask:

"Brother Guide, then why did Mr. Cang Xuan Sr. say he’s unsure how long it will take me to understand, that it might be an instant, or a lifetime?"

[He indeed doesn’t know the exact time. With his ability, he cannot quantify this process at all.]

[As for the ’instant’ he mentioned, it refers to a sudden epiphany you might have in the process of step-by-step sword swinging accumulation, where you suddenly develop your own understanding of the Sword Momentum or a new perception of Cang Xuan’s Guardian Sword. This very epiphany could propel you past years, or even decades, of arduous practice.]

[If you can experience multiple epiphanies, you’ll naturally integrate and comprehensively understand the Guardian Sword completely.]

[So, he’s not wrong. A moment’s leap indeed exists... As for his statement that it might take a lifetime, that involves unknown factor interference, such as your lifespan, impatience prompting you to leave, or a sudden catastrophe destroying the illusion, all external interferences stopping you from understanding the truth in your lifetime.]

After hearing Brother Guide’s explanation, Tu Hu nodded in sudden realization:

"So, as long as I keep swinging the sword, I am bound to understand the Sword Momentum... But the problem is, 103 years is too long. Even if I increase the intensity of my sword swings by threefold daily, it will still take 31 years."

After speaking, Tu Hu looked eagerly at Brother Guide:

"Brother Guide, I know you must have a way."

[Yes, there are two methods, both can speed up the comprehension. One requires Flower Sacrificial Power, and the other does not.]

"I prefer the method that saves sacrificial power, let’s hear it." A formerly dejected Tu Hu immediately perked up.

[The Extreme Speed Soul in the Life Soul Library can speed up this process. By unleashing Extreme Speed, the multiplication of your sword swings translates directly into multiplied efficiency under rule enhancement. With Energy Absorption combined with Extreme Speed, maintaining a stable triple speed, you can complete comprehension in just 31 years... if you raise the Levels of Energy Absorption and Extreme Speed, the multiplication can naturally increase.]

Tu Hu’s expression immediately fell.

Even at ten times the endurance, it would still take 10 years to fully comprehend the Guardian Sword Momentum.

After that, there are still the Sword of Slaughter and Sword of Destruction, these two entirely new Sword Momentums.

As a player, this shortcut is still too long for him.

"Brother Guide, tell me about the Flower Sacrificial Power option."

[Spending sacrificial power is essentially leveraging the Player System to accelerate your fusion process with the Sword Momentum. I offer you two options that cost sacrificial power.]

[Option one: Complete Reconstruction.]

[Pay 34.38 million sacrificial power, and I can help you completely decompose the Guardian Sword, break down its rule structure, and create a special Sword Momentum Life Soul. The specific name can be changed once, but only once... You can embed it into the Star Vein Slot and instantly inherit Cang Xuan’s Guardian Sword Momentum.]

Upon hearing this astronomical figure, Tu Hu’s eye twitched. Even if he sold himself, he wouldn’t be able to gather this huge sum.

As an ordinary player, playing in the Monster World until now, he hasn’t spent a single penny.

Even the latest game pod was exchanged for with sacrificial power.

Even if he had this sacrificial power, he would have already spent it. It’s impossible for him to save up millions of sacrificial power.

[Option two: Gradual Unsealing.]

[Pay 2.5 million sacrificial power, and I will purify and seal the Guardian Sword Momentum, converting it into a sealed state Sword Momentum Life Soul and embed it into your Star Vein Slot. Thereafter, every sword swing or active sacrificial power payment can gradually unseal this seal, extracting Rule Power from it... Though it takes time, the cost is reduced, and it allows you to gradually adjust to the Sword Momentum during the unsealing process, helping you progress beyond Cang Xuan’s foundation in the future.]

Tu Hu’s eyes instantly brightened.

Though the first option is better, his wallet doesn’t allow it.
