Chapter 954: Chapter 954: Master and Disciple Discuss the Dao

The endless stream of information made Lin Kuang feel like his head was about to explode, as if even his Soul was going to burst apart because of it.

But just at that moment, his mind returned to calm—Qiubai’s imparting was already complete.

"Brat, take a good look. This is the Swordsmanship I’ve passed on to you, called the Defying Heaven Seven Demon Swords. It’s hailed as one of the strongest Swordsmanships on the Xuanwu Continent, but precisely because of that, this set of Swordsmanship is also known as one of the most difficult on the Xuanwu Continent.

Back then, as your Master I took in many Disciples, yet none of those Disciples succeeded in Cultivation.

Only one Disciple managed to cultivate the first form of the Defying Heaven Seven Demon Swords, but he died in battle.

So I’m placing my hopes on you now. I hope you can successfully cultivate the Defying Heaven Seven Demon Swords."

Looking at Lin Kuang, Deputy Sect Master Qiubai spoke with utmost seriousness. In his eyes burned a scorching heat, full of expectation.

Lin Kuang was the one he thought highly of. However, the Defying Heaven Seven Demon Swords was truly too difficult. Whether Lin Kuang could actually succeed at this Cultivation, even Deputy Sect Master Qiubai himself had no certainty.

Seeing the expectation in Deputy Sect Master Qiubai’s gaze, Lin Kuang nodded heavily. "Master, rest assured, your Disciple will definitely not let you down.

The Defying Heaven Seven Demon Swords—I will definitely cultivate it successfully!"

Lin Kuang spoke with extreme solemnity, his eyes filled with determination. He believed he could definitely succeed in his Cultivation!

Hearing Lin Kuang’s words, Qiubai smiled and nodded. "Mm, as your Master I also believe you can succeed. So, work hard. I look forward to the day you complete this Cultivation!"

Patting Lin Kuang’s shoulder, Deputy Sect Master Qiubai spoke with a smile.

Hearing this, Lin Kuang also nodded. He believed he would succeed.

Master and Disciple chatted for a while, then Lin Kuang began to voice the doubts in his heart—after all, this was his main purpose in coming to the Supreme Divine Sect.

"Master, I want to ask: in your view, in our Cultivation must we separate out the Elements contained within Profound Qi, or can we rely solely on Profound Qi itself to strengthen ourselves?"

Looking at Qiubai by his side, Lin Kuang asked the question that had been troubling him.

Hearing this, Qiubai couldn’t help being slightly stunned, apparently not expecting Lin Kuang to ask such a profound question.

Thinking for a moment, Deputy Sect Master Qiubai smiled and said, "Little fellow, your question is really sharp. Ordinary Disciples wouldn’t think of something like this.

Let me first ask you—in your opinion, which of these two paths of Cultivation is better?"

At this, Lin Kuang furrowed his brows, then spoke. "To be honest, I’ve randomly thought about this question before, but I haven’t been able to verify anything. If I say something wrong, I ask Master not to blame me."

Looking at Qiubai, Lin Kuang spoke.

Qiubai smiled. "There’s nothing to blame. Everyone has their own understanding of Cultivation. These understandings can be used to cross-check each other.

I’m only walking ahead of you, knowing a bit more than you, that’s all—but that doesn’t mean I know everything, right?

Besides, your understanding of Cultivation might even inspire me. After all, everyone’s comprehension of Cultivation is different."

Hearing this, Lin Kuang’s body trembled slightly, then he nodded heavily. "Master, your Disciple understands. Then I’ll speak."

Qiubai nodded toward Lin Kuang, signaling him to speak boldly.

"Master, in my view Profound Qi is Energy produced by the natural world. We use this Energy to strengthen ourselves and grasp the Dharmas of Cultivation. This should be the earliest Cultivation Dharma passed down.

Of course, this is my own understanding of Cultivation, and I believe this form of Cultivation is all-encompassing and absolutely powerful.

But separating the Elements contained within Profound Qi and mastering only a single Element might raise Attack Power in a short time. Yet over the long term I don’t see what real benefit there is.

It’s like Profound Qi is a complete whole, while the part separated out is just a single Element. Comparing the two, I feel that the whole is far stronger than a single strand of power."

Looking at Qiubai, Lin Kuang voiced the explanation he had long prepared in his heart.

Yet Lin Kuang was not sure if this was correct, so he wanted to have it verified by Qiubai.

Listening to Lin Kuang’s words, Qiubai kept nodding, and a smile appeared on his face.

"Brat, what you said is actually quite right. The Profound Qi as a whole is indeed stronger than a single Element, but at the same time, Profound Qi is harder to cultivate.

That’s just one aspect. Another point, just as you said, Profound Qi itself contains all things.

Each person senses different Elements contained within Profound Qi.

Some people sense the Fire Element, some sense the Wood Element, so they choose to cultivate one Element to its extreme.

When that one Element is cultivated to the limit, they can then grasp all related Elements of that type and further consolidate.

If one masters all the Elements, that is the strongest God—we call such powerhouses Creator Gods.

Because those who have mastered all Elements can fully Open Heaven on their own, we call them Creator Gods!

Do you understand?"

Looking at Lin Kuang, Qiubai spoke with a smile.

Lin Kuang listened carefully. When Qiubai finished, Lin Kuang couldn’t help but nod. Of course he understood such things.

"So you mean cultivating a single Element is only to make the speed of Cultivation faster; in the end you then fuse other Elements, so that your final achievements are greater. Is that it, Master?"

Looking at Qiubai, Lin Kuang asked again.

Hearing this, Qiubai smiled and nodded. "That’s exactly it."

"But if we keep cultivating Profound Qi as a whole, can’t we also master all the Elements?"

Looking at Qiubai, Lin Kuang once more voiced the doubt in his heart.

Hearing this, Qiubai first shook his head, then nodded. "You can. Of course you can.

But have you thought about how difficult it would be to Cultivate all these Elements at the same time? The degree of difficulty is extremely high."

Hearing Qiubai’s words, Lin Kuang couldn’t help frowning. "Master, but Profound Qi itself is a whole.

If we treat Profound Qi as a whole and cultivate it directly, wouldn’t that be enough? It’s just the difference between a large whole and a single-element whole, isn’t it?"

"Yes, that’s exactly the difference.

But you have to understand—if you cultivate a single Element, you don’t need to constantly evolve it.

Whereas cultivating with Profound Qi, you can only continuously evolve your Dantian and evolve your Primordial Pill. This step is extremely difficult.

Throughout history, some geniuses have tried this. But—but not a single one has ever succeeded!

In the end, they had no choice but to pick one Element and cultivate it to the extreme.

This is what I mean by the difference in Cultivation between the great whole of Profound Qi and the single-element whole.

The single whole only needs to keep cultivating, cultivating steadily, whereas the true whole must undergo constant evolution, evolution!"

Looking at Lin Kuang, Qiubai spoke again.
