C734 The Method of Transformation
Elder Changming drew back his sword in time and said, "Do you understand?"
Lu Chong nodded slightly, "Thank you for your guidance, Master. However, what exactly should I do when my will breaks through to the Dao Profound Realm?"
The so-called will seemed to be even more profound and indescribable than mental strength. There was no standard of quantification or method of cultivation at all, and this was the most difficult part.
Elder Chang Ming smiled and said, "Don't be impatient. The transformation of the intent doesn't depend on the hard work of cultivation in seclusion."
"I have said before that you need to have the determination and courage to fight to the death. Then... you must go through life and death to sharpen your mind and cultivate your belief."
"Of course, I am not asking you to go to your death." Elder Chang Ming warned.
"You have to know your limits when it comes to training. You have to know your limits."
" The best condition is to be able to continue moving forward and walk a path that suits you under the pressure and real danger. "Elder Chang Ming explained.
"If you cultivate in my place or the training grounds, it's true that you can feel the pressure, but that's not a danger. You'll definitely have a lucky thought in your heart."
"Even more so in the virtual world."
"So, you have to walk out."
Elder Chang Ming continued. "The closest place to the Azure Sharp Dojo is the battlefield ruins." Elder Chang Ming continued.
"However, with your current strength, normal ruins aren't enough to pressure you."
"Therefore, I suggest we go to the Chaotic Dao Tablet world." Elder Chang Ming gritted his teeth and said.
Although he didn't want his beloved disciple to go adventuring in that kind of place, there was nothing he could do. If he wanted to break through to the Dao Profound Realm, Lu Chong had to go through this process.
"The Chaotic Dao Tablet world?" Lu Chong muttered. He had heard of it from the Eternal Spring Hall.
Elder Chang Ming said: "The world of the Chaotic Dao Tablets is a treasure ground, and also a dangerous place."
"The three dojos and even the peak Dao Initiation realm cultivators from further places will enter and spend their time comprehending the Dao, adventuring, and searching for treasures."
"Most of the Elders of our dojos, including me, broke through to the Dao Profound Realm there."
"However." Elder Chang Ming's voice became slightly solemn as he said this, "There were even more elite inner disciples that didn't return and died there."
"Therefore, you need to think carefully before deciding whether you want to go or not."
"You have to rely on yourself over there." Elder Chang Ming emphasized once more.
"Understood. Don't worry, Master. I won't force myself."
After bidding farewell to Elder Chang Ming, Lu Chong returned to his own floating cave residence, pondering over his next cultivation plan.
"I'll wait a little longer. I'll make a decision when I'm fully prepared." Lu Chong thought.
Although his comprehension of the Dao had temporarily stagnated, he did not have the four great Dao arts.
Furthermore, he had yet to complete the refinement of the Dragon's Roar Sword and the Seven Stars Tavern.
"Not only does the world of the Chaotic Dao Tablets have a harsh environment, but there are also many experts in it. Even those in the Dao Profound Realm might come down personally. I need to prepare first."
Just as Elder Chang Ming had said, going out was to temper one's will appropriately, and it was absolutely not to throw away one's life.
After making up his mind, Lu Chong was not in a hurry to go out. Instead, he continued to cultivate in the cave and refine dao treasures.
There was no sun or moon in the mountain. In the blink of an eye, more than three years had passed, and Lu Chong's Dao arts had improved once again, and the two Dao treasures had also been refined to the extreme.
At the same time, his Contribution Points were almost used up.
Name: Lu Chong
Level: Ninth Layer of Dao Initiation (100%)
Dao Art -
Azure Edge Dao Insight Stage 16 (1%)
Thousand Revolution Palm Dao Insight Stage 14 (27%)
Heavenly Net Armor Dao Insight Stage 14 (21%)
Flowing Cloud Dao Insight Stage 11 (16%)
...
The Azure Sharp Dao Art was the fastest to advance, and because he had his master Elder Chang Ming as a sparring partner, he had already reached the 16th Realm.
However, he had reached a bottleneck because in terms of the power of the Azure Sharp Dao, he was about to catch up to Elder Changming.
The only thing he lacked was Intent.
"It's time to leave." Lu Chong thought.
If he continued to stay at the inner sect's Floating Mountain, Lu Chong would almost be unable to enter any further, so he could only leave.
This time, he was not planning to travel with anyone. He was going to travel alone, and he had to keep a low profile.
"I have enemies both within and outside the dojo. If Elder Fan Long and the others know where I am right now, they'll definitely do something."
This was not Lu Chong's groundless worry, but that Elder Fan Long from the Thousand Chance Daoist Rite had long since spread the word that he wanted Lu Chong to pay the price for his actions.
After all, Lu Chong had captured a direct disciple alive and even stole Elder Fan Long's meditation diagram.
How could the other party let this go so easily?
According to Lu Chong's understanding, this Elder Fan Long was currently at the fifth level of the Dao Profound Realm, and was the elder in charge of the Thousand Revolution Dao Field's Fan Long Branch.
He might not dare to attack the Azure Edge Dojo and start a war, but once he knew that Lu Chong was outside, he would definitely take action.
After making some preparations, Lu Chong only bade farewell to his master, then changed his appearance and left the Azure Edge Dojo, heading straight for the world of the Chaotic Dao Tablets.
...
The Chaotic Dao Pillar was said to be close to the dojo, but in reality, it was not very close to the dojo. It was light-years away, so Lu Chong only arrived after a series of wormhole jumps.
"This place is much bigger than the battlefield ruins from last time." Lu Chong couldn't help but think as he had already entered the world of the Dao tablet.
This world of Dao Tablets was more than hundreds of millions of kilometers wide, and its layout was similar to that of the inner circle of the Azure Edge Dojo. It was a world that spread out with the Dao Tablets as the center.
However, the Dao of this Dao tablet world was indeed different from the inner disciples of the Dao Palace. It was extremely chaotic.
There was also a floating mountain range here, as well as planets of different sizes. However, they weren't suitable for normal people to live on.
Only those in the Dao Initiation Realm could enter this chaotic Dao tablet world.
"This place is so big. The number of people who enter the three great dojos and the surrounding areas will not exceed a hundred thousand at most. They are just a drop in the ocean. It shouldn't be so easy for them to meet someone in the Dao Profound Realm." Lu Chong thought.2
Experts in the Dao Profound Realm would usually gather at the core area closest to the Dao tablet. They would either comprehend the Dao, or search for treasures. They would not fight with those in the Dao Initiation realm at the outer perimeter.
Therefore, as long as they didn't seek death, they wouldn't be targeted by those at the Dao Profound Realm.
"How many experts have fallen in this place over the years?" Lu Chong observed while he was on his way.
After traveling for less than three thousand kilometers, he had already seen no less than five battle ruins, all of which were chaotic areas left behind by Dao Initiation realm cultivators after they fell.
However, to Lu Chong, this was also a good opportunity to pick up the corpse, so most of the time, he would accept it.
