Chapter 1047: Chapter 668: Choosing Dragon Elephant Power to Break a Thousand Jun, Embracing the Way of Heaven to Gather All Rivers! (Part 2)

Meng Chuan’s eyes revealed a sudden realization, and he immediately clasped his hands and said:

"Master’s heart is with the world, aiding the people and bringing peace, admirable!"

Feeling a surge of emotions, if not for the fact that the path of formations didn’t suit him, he would have wanted to start researching it.

Immediately, he had a related thought about something else, and asked Master Baibao for confirmation:

"Master, similar to these skills, can weapon techniques like sword and spear fighting also evolve into Dao?"

This advanced extraterrestrial intelligence was only held by the Celestial King level Great Saints who were close to "entering Dao," and it was not passed down, so Meng Chuan was not aware of it.

Meng Chuan had personally experienced the deeply embedded reasons, and there was no need to speak more.

Knowing too much truly isn’t a good thing, in the literal sense...

Bai Bao knew his martial principle of "Recognize Heaven and Earth," and even could create laws and seek the path, so he began to explain:

"What you think is not wrong; within the universe, there exists the Dao of a hundred weapons. Those who cultivate martial skills are close to Dao, and there are many who have entered Dao.

The current Dragon Realm has a wanted fugitive of the ninth rank named ’Star-Destruction Sword Demon.’

He has devoted both body and heart to a karmic and ferocious Red Lotus Demon Sword.

The obsessed walk to an extreme, merging with the sword path, transforming into the sword, slaughtering thirteen planets under the governance of the Dragon Realm in succession, truly fierce..."

Upon hearing this, Meng Chuan couldn’t help but shrink his neck.

He sucked in a cold breath; what kind of cosmic disaster is this...

Truly, there is always a bigger evil; beyond demons lies even greater demons.

The killings he committed were calculated by the number of planets, indeed terrifying...

The most wanted criminal of Great Chu, Li Xiao, in comparison to this Star-Destruction Sword Demon, is so obedient like a little white rabbit...

Fortunately, the human realm is more deeply separated from this ninth-rank abnormality.

In addition, with the territorial projection of the old thief Hao, only demons from the Cosmic Realm can descend to the human world through his barrier.

Therefore, this Star-Destruction Sword Demon absolutely cannot come to Blue Star, otherwise, Meng Chuan would be quite worried...

No, wait...

Meng Chuan’s expression suddenly stiffened; having already been wanted by the Dragon Realm, if he was left with no choice but to join the cosmos...

Bai Bao seemed to have seen his thoughts and comforted him:

"I tell you this not to scare you, rest assured, don’t take Blue Star too seriously; the Dao Realm is vast and boundless, with countless planets within, and we are just the most inconspicuous one among them, with no connection to this Sword Demon, so no need to panic."

As Bai Bao was speaking, Meng Chuan himself actually understood, but he simultaneously asked:

"Master, for those like this path of martial weapon techniques, which should belong to the ’Acquired Dao,’ are they more prone to obsession and deviation than other innate exists like cause and effect, Five Elements, Yin and Yang?"

As far as he knew, Dao paths are distinguished between innate and acquired.

The ’Innate Dao’ refers to the existence of Dao principles like Yin and Yang, Five Elements, Wind, Thunder, Water and Fire, and Cause and Effect from the very beginning of chaos, where cultivators follow the path and gain the power of heaven and earth.

The ’Acquired Dao,’ on the other hand, evolves from the cultivator’s own opportunity, obsession, knowledge, and so on, with the core being using oneself as the furnace to forge the foundation of Dao, fundamentally differing from the innate Dao.

Whether in innate or acquired Dao, cultivators employ acquired cultivation methods.

The strength between the two isn’t inherently present in different paths, but when viewed from a developmental perspective, the innate Dao definitely stands a step above.

Because at the apex of every innate Dao path, there almost always stands a powerful ’Proven Dao’ at the eleventh rank, whereas there are very few in the acquired Dao path who can ’Proven Dao’...

Bai Bao nodded openly, giving him a slightly meaningful look, and said:

"Indeed, according to the Dao principle materials transmitted from the Dragon Realm.

You’re right, and the ’Path of Flesh’ you wish to cultivate is the same.

As for the specific reason, it’s not something that can be explained in a few words; even this old monk does not fully understand."

"..."

Was Master Baibao hinting at him...

But Meng Chuan did have a slight inkling, just as when his body unlocked the ’Final Liberation,’ it led to the loss of control of Heart Spirit.

The Path of Flesh is a transcendent cultivation path, and breaking through its limits can indeed lead to a loss of control.

The weapon path seems to have some hidden dangers in this regard as well...

Seeing the change in his expression, Bai Bao comforted:

"There is no need for panic; your path and cultivation are far from reaching the stage of considering these issues. No matter what Dao path, as long as you maintain your nature and order, keep your heart pure and good, cultivate neither hastily nor impatiently, the matter of the Demon Sword will not arise."

Meng Chuan nodded; Master Baibao’s words indeed pointed straight to the ’true intent’ of cultivation.

The Great Dao is merciless; Dao paths themselves do not have the ability to guide towards good or evil.

It is only the cultivators who, due to their choices and mindset, may fall into obsession and possibly go astray...

Bai Bao also knew that Meng Chuan had previously followed Grandmaster Shinan and cultivated the Shaolin Demon Vanquishing Staff, so he smiled and said:

"Since establishing diplomatic relations with the Dragon Realm, the nation has obtained much new information about the ’Dao.’ Now, Great Chu also increasingly values the weapon path.

Our Shaolin Bodhi Institute even specially established a Weapon Pavilion for cultivating weapon skills, with the chief of the Venerable Institute providing teaching. If you’re ever free, you can go study a thing or two."

"Understood, thank you, Master Baibao."

Meng Chuan expressed his gratitude, yet he had little desire to go.

Principal Yang had already taught him plenty, and the Venerable Institute’s chief at the Shaolin Temple might not necessarily know more than his own principal.

Moreover, wanting to cultivate weapon skills until they become ’Dao’ is certainly extremely difficult.

No one on Blue Star can achieve this, nor is there anyone to teach him.

His focus must remain on pioneering Martial Arts and developing the Path of Flesh, with no room to concern himself with other matters.
