Immortality Through Array Formations Chapter 2067 - 985: God-slaying Soul Projection (2)

Even though the might might lessen a bit, the power one can totally command is the genuine essence of one's abilities.

Employing the refined Divine Thought into sword, once it escapes the sheath, just half its strength proves more than sufficient.

Strip away the Taishang Emotion Cutting, cut the Tai Xu Sword Intent by half, reduce the integrated Dao by the same amount, which in turn lightens the burden, speeds up the attacks, and boosts the effectiveness in battle.

Of every spell and technique, nothing surpasses speed in supremacy.

Grandpa Gui imparted this lesson to me ages ago.

It's preferable to outpace by a tiny margin than to overpower by a vast degree.

The challenge of forming the Godslaying Sword appears resolved now.

The following concern lies in how to unleash it.

For unleashing, the eyes act as the channel, shattering the divide between the Sea of Consciousness and the physical realm, allowing the Divine Thought into sword to burst forth completely.

In a way, this matter holds even greater importance.

Should the divine thought transfer halt at a vital instant, the line between real and unreal remains intact, preventing the Sword of Divine Thought from emerging, then disaster strikes.

Picture two cultivators clashing intensely with blades drawn.

If the foe's blade already presses against your throat, while your own stays trapped in its scabbard, you're fated to perish in utter stupidity.

Mo Hua's face grew solemn.

He absolutely refuses to meet his end in such a "foolish" manner.

"I have to discover a method that guarantees the Divine Thought into sword exits its sheath without fail..."

Yet, mastering the spell's release point exceeds what Mo Hua can grasp at his current level.

He's strayed far "beyond the curriculum," lacking any prior examples, so he must probe step by step, refining it to fit his unique circumstances.

Mo Hua reflected briefly, drawing on lessons from Patriarch Dugu in days gone by.

Per the Taixu Gate's purest Divine Thought into sword True Jue, a "sword" serves as the conduit for its discharge.

Mo Hua isn't a traditional Sword Cultivator and lacks such a blade.

Thus, he resorts to his eyes as the conduit.

However, channeling through the eyes turns the Divine Thought into sword into a far more intricate and esoteric release point.

Given Mo Hua's present cultivation base and Sword Dao skill, stable mastery lies out of reach.

Unsteadiness often breeds collapse. A single collapse invites catastrophe.

"I require an extra conduit to secure steadiness..."

But what to incorporate?

He owns no personal Magical Treasure, not even the beginnings of one nurtured.

Beyond the eyes, his body provides no other fitting conduit...

With brows furrowed, Mo Hua strained his mind for quite some time, until at last, drawing from his deep expertise in formations, he gleaned inspiration from the First Grade's twenty-three-pattern Five Elements Source Formation Law.

Spiritual Power!

At its heart, the Five Elements Source Formation employs divine thought, via formation shifts, to magnify the Five Elements' force, thus elevating the might of Five Elements Taoist Skills.

This reveals that Spiritual Power and Telekinesis, though appearing as separate Tao Cultivation forces, stem from a common root.

Spiritual Power can blend seamlessly with divine thought.

To a degree, this allows Spiritual Power to function as a vessel for "divine thought."

This mechanism proves intricate and undoubtedly weaves in specific Dao Laws, or else the Five Elements Source Formation wouldn't stand as the Five Elements Sect's ultimate guardian array.

Yet Mo Hua seeks no elaborate shifts.

He simply aims to harness his Spiritual Power to steer his Divine Sense.

As extensions of himself, Spiritual Power and Divine Sense share natural harmony, enabling effortless summoning without clash.

"Spiritual Power steers Divine Sense..."

Mo Hua mused for an instant, then jolted inwardly, recalling his cultivation method—Heaven Yan Jue.

In cultivating Heaven Yan Jue, breakthroughs in realm see Spiritual Power withdraw to the Heavenly Gate, pour into the Sea of Consciousness, interface with Divine Sense, and erect a Spirit Screen of Mystery Formation patterns to form the breakthrough's barrier.

Could this suggest...

The workings of Heaven Yan Jue entail a harmony between Spiritual Power and Telekinesis... or perhaps their partial merging?

Mo Hua's features shifted subtly, struck with profound realization.

This delves into the merging of a cultivator's most basic energies.

The ancient technique from his master truly harbors vast enigmas.

Regrettably, his cultivation remains too nascent, grasping only faint outlines, far from plumbing the profound core of Heaven Yan Jue.

"I'll persist in steady cultivation; as my realm ascends and insight grows, the hidden truths of this ancient method may slowly reveal themselves..."

Mo Hua pushed aside his puzzlement over Heaven Yan Jue for now, pressing on with focused study of releasing the Divine Thought into sword.

After some deliberation, he'd already resolved the bulk of the puzzles, devising a technique rooted in his accumulated knowledge and practice.

All that's left is to test it in action.

Mo Hua steadied his spirit, banishing stray thoughts, as his eyes sharpened progressively, his form akin to a sheathed treasure blade brimming with concealed lethality.

Within the Sea of Consciousness, Mo Hua lifted his hands skyward.

The sword arrays of Gold Cutting, Mountain Opening, Gui Water, and Li Fire surged unyieldingly between his palms.

A thread of Tai Xu Sword Intent wove in as well.

Since it drew on only a portion of Sword Dao, this Godslaying Sword took shape with remarkable swiftness.

Once the Godslaying Sword coalesced, its intent blazed with ferocity, eager to lash out.

Mo Hua's gaze intensified, piercing and unblinking.

He pressed two fingers to his forehead.

A strand of Spiritual Power linked to the Sea of Consciousness, slowly "ushering" the telekinetic surge inside.

Mo Hua keenly felt the divide between tangible and ethereal.

With eyes as the gateway and Spiritual Power as the shepherd, Mo Hua's Sword of Divine Thought started piercing the veil separating real from illusory.

Mo Hua savored every detail of this process.

Carefully tracing the interplay and shifts between Spiritual Power and Telekinesis throughout.

While steadily charting the course, aim, and destination for unleashing his Godslaying Sword, grasping the essence of virtual-to-real transition in Sword Dao.
