Chapter 1285: Chapter 739 Sword Control_2

But this Transforming Sword Skill is merely superficial.

Moreover, because he’s a swordsmanship “rookie,” his “Transforming Sword Skill” lacks a foundational essence in sword techniques, making what he learned quite crude.

It’s just a mimicry, creating a “sword shape” with Divine Thought.

Even so, this Transforming Sword Skill already exhibits considerable power.

However, this power relies on his own formidable and evolved Divine Sense, rather than on refined techniques of Divine Thought.

Mo Hua wished to go further, to learn more profound Divine Thought into sword techniques.

But he currently has no leads at all.

It is inconvenient for him to ask Elder Master Xun about it.

If he asks about formations, Elder Master Xun is overjoyed, but if it’s sword techniques, Elder Master Xun is bound to be quite unhappy.

He would certainly think Mo Hua was “not focusing on his proper studies” and too restless in his thoughts.

From the other elders, whether acquaintances or strangers, no matter how Mo Hua cautiously probed, he couldn’t glean any information.

Apart from that Sword Cultivator senior from the small fishing village, Mo Hua, to this day, hasn’t seen any other Taixu Sect members mastering Divine Thought into sword techniques.

This Divine Thought Sword Technique seems to have disappeared from Taixu Sect.

That’s quite bewildering.

Mo Hua sighed.

Since there are no leads, he can only figure it out himself.

Divine Thought into sword requires swordsmanship fundamentals as its basis.

Mo Hua’s Sword Dao foundation is appallingly weak.

So, he plans to enhance his understanding and cognition of Sword Dao.

Whether it’s Sword Qi or Sword Weapons, he can research and delve into them.

To see if he can gain insights obliquely, comprehending the true essence of “Divine Thought into Sword.”

The current Sever Gold Sword Formation, with both swords and formations, is a good opportunity.

However, this Sword Formation is an exclusive legacy of the Sever Gold Sect.

It’s absolutely necessary to learn it secretly; the Sever Gold Sect must not find out.

At the very least, they must not realize he possesses their Sever Gold Sword Formation.

In the following days, Mo Hua immersed himself in the study of Sword Formation patterns, layouts, applications, and principles whenever he had time.

The Sword Formation is incomplete, so he can’t learn it in its entirety, but his understanding of the principles behind Sever Gold Sword Qi is growing increasingly profound.

Based on Sever Gold Sword Qi principles, Mo Hua improved the Gold-breaking Armor.

This armor incorporates fire demon bones that block Sword Qi and adds formations to counteract Sword Qi.

Mo Hua completed the blueprint and handed it to Master Gu.

Though it was just one set, Master Gu didn’t slack off and personally worked overtime to craft this set of “Gold-breaking Armor.”

For differentiation, Mo Hua named this set of armor “Sever Gold Armor.”

This armor, as the name implies, primarily defends against gold-series Sword Qi, with the explicit purpose of countering the Sever Gold Sect.

Nonetheless, this Sever Gold Armor is only a prototype, requiring further refinement, and the Sever Gold Sword Formation hasn’t been fully deduced yet.

“Still need that pretty boy…”

Mo Hua muttered silently in his heart.

Soon, it was the day of rest—a scheduled dueling day.

Inside Refining Demon Mountain.

Cheng Mo donned Mo Hua’s newly refined “Sever Gold Armor” and started taunting Song Jian again.

Although he had earlier sustained injuries, over the past week, he had fully recovered.

With skin thick and tough, Cheng Mo, being someone who quickly forgets pain after his wounds heal, immediately provoked, “Pretty boy, last time you were just lucky enough to escape a beating, but today I’ll make you kneel and call me grandpa!”

Song Jian’s face turned dark, “You’re courting death!”

The two quickly engaged in combat once more.

This time, Song Jian struck harder, with fiercer Sword Qi.

Cheng Mo, despite his bragging exterior, earlier bore a hint of apprehension, yet as they began exchanging blows, he suddenly felt much less pressure.

Song Jian’s Sword Qi, while gleaming with golden light and looking razor-sharp, when striking against him noticeably lost much of its power, and the pain dulled significantly.

This armor not only defended against gold-series Spiritual Power but also dramatically reduced the potency of Sword Qi.

Cheng Mo found this unbelievable.

The spiritual artifacts tailor-made by his Junior Brother were increasingly outrageous, capable of countering even sword techniques from a Twelve Sects sect-protecting faction…

Cheng Mo was a bit astonished.

With this armor on, not only could he withstand more hits from Song Jian, but he could also earn more merit points!

Cheng Mo’s spirits lifted, and shouting loudly, he re-engaged in combat with Song Jian.

The scene locked into a tense stalemate.

Mo Hua observed from the side, employing Heavenly secret Calculation to deduce the Sword Qi of Song Jian’s Spirit Sword while advancing his study of the Sever Gold Sect’s Sever Gold Sword Formation.

At the same time, he gauged the effectiveness of Sever Gold Armor using the potency of Song Jian’s Sword Qi.

Song Jian had, without knowing, become Mo Hua’s “lab rat.”

And yet, he remained completely oblivious.

The duel stretched on for nearly an hour and a half, before Mo Hua reused an old trick, luring monster beasts with the scent of blood to disrupt the fight and force it to an end.

Cheng Mo hurled curses and threats as he left, but soon slipped away.

Song Jian, shaking with rage, was utterly powerless to retaliate.

Following Mo Hua’s clandestine meddling, Cheng Mo and Song Jian dueled several more times.

Song Jian grew increasingly fiery, ignoring everything around him, obsessed solely with fighting Cheng Mo.

Every time he met Cheng Mo, he drew his sword to kill, his eyes turning red with fury, wishing he could shred Cheng Mo to pieces.

Cheng Mo, however, didn’t care.

His mission was to “get beaten.”

During their first duel, his armor had failed, leaving him quite injured.

But in each subsequent duel, Mo Hua’s refinements made the armor stronger, countering both gold-series Spiritual Power and Sword Qi, rendering Cheng Mo increasingly fearless.

Additionally, his Junior Brother even paid him “wages.”

An hour’s work earned him a hefty hundred merit points, which was quite generous.

After numerous duels, Mo Hua studied Sever Gold Sword Qi and finally deduced the complete Sever Gold Sword Formation.

This was an extremely rare sect-protecting Sword Formation.

Mo Hua eagerly began studying the Sever Gold Sword Formation.

He sought to understand its deeper principles and the fundamental essence of Sword Dao.

This would greatly aid him in comprehending “Sword Dao.”

Several more days passed, and after dozens of simulations of Sever Gold Sword Qi and interpretations of Sever Gold Sword Formation, Mo Hua gradually mastered the Sever Gold Sword Formation.
