The Holy Path of the Primordial World Shines Brightly

Chapter 51 A Useless Piece of Cake, the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!

Knowledge is priceless.

"But sometimes, it's also cheap."

The Great Sage Fuxi spoke eloquently, saying, "Different environments lead to different values."

Feng Xi listened attentively; this was the commentary of a supreme expert.

"The Three Thousand Great Daos, even the incomplete ones... are they still useful?" Fuxi asked. "Of course they are!"

"To dissect the fundamental principles of the entire universe clearly... to master them is as important as to master the language in the magnificent story of the world."

"Through it, you can interpret all the phenomena of the heavens and understand all the principles of the world, which will become your resources for progress... Then, through your own wisdom and logic, you can write articles, summarize your own views, and expound on the unchanging and universal principles, which is called proving the Way."

"For those pioneers who are utterly lost on their path of cultivation, do you think these fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation are of great value?"

"Huge! Incredibly huge!"

The Great Sage Fuxi smiled and said, "No matter what kind of cultivation system you want to create, it always follows the same principle and must ultimately adhere to the most basic rules—whether you seek within yourself or rely on the external world."

"For where do living beings come from? Heaven and earth give birth to essence and energy, and essence and energy transform into living beings... Every step and detail must follow the principles of the world to evolve, which is an eternal truth."

"How can humans defy the laws and principles of Heaven and Earth?"

"Unless you are an unparalleled being who has truly comprehended the supreme principle of 'creating something from nothing,' opening up possibilities from the impossible... but that is far too far away for you."

Therefore, the value of these fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation can be described as priceless.

"But it is priceless only to some people."

"Oh? Who is it?" Feng Xi pressed.

"For those who are independent cultivators without roots or backgrounds, or beings whose cultivation is still in its primitive era," Xi Huang said with a smile. "There is no road ahead, no reference points, and no benchmarks... obtaining this so-called fragment of the Jade Disc of Creation can truly open the door to a life of becoming a supreme Dao Ancestor."

"A textbook that covers all aspects of knowledge from basic to advanced levels. Except for the ultimate content of the Daluo section which has been cut, the rest can be used as a reference to cultivate to the highest level of Taiyi... Even if there are some difficulties in the process, and you can't think straight for a while, for a cultivator, there is endless time to comprehend, so there is no obstacle that cannot be overcome."

"But alas!" Xi Huang suddenly sighed softly, "Times have changed!"

"One by one, the Great Luo Immortals founded their own sects and passed down their lineages... Each Great Luo Immortal thoroughly comprehended the Three Thousand Great Daos and can be called a Dao Ancestor!"

"What great use could this counterfeit Jade Disc of Creation, made by the hand of the Great Luo, possibly have?"

Feng Xi was stunned.

"No one from the core of any powerful Luo clan would care much about this treasure... after all, they have powerful backers!" Xi Huang laughed. "The powerful backers will consider whether they should receive guidance and instruction in the Three Thousand Great Daos."

"Moreover, a higher-level, more comprehensive perspective is definitely clearer about your ability to absorb new knowledge and your learning progress than you are yourself. They know where you will get stuck and can give you a slight hint when appropriate, making it easy for you to overcome one hurdle after another."

"Little guy, don't forget... you're not a rogue cultivator!"

"Behind you lies one of the most powerful and domineering forces in the entire primordial world—the Witch Clan!"

"Twelve Ancestral Witches, hundreds of Great Witches... Such a massive teaching force, coupled with the need to train core warriors in times of war, means there are countless opportunities to learn the Three Thousand Great Daos, such as the fragments of the Jade Disc of Creation!"

"However, considering that the teachings are not easily passed on, and that there is an element of stimulation and motivation, participation in such learning may require some hard criteria—such as combat achievements? Or contributions to the construction of rear bases?"

The words of the Great Sage Fuxi resonated in Feng Xi's mind like a morning bell or an evening drum, giving him a sudden realization.

He almost forgot that he was still a member of the Witch Clan—perhaps because the Witch Clan was so large, with trillions upon trillions of similar beings, that Feng Xi felt his own weight was very light and insignificant.

But no matter what, he still has the identity of the Witch Clan, and within the Witch Clan, there are still fair and reasonable steps for advancement left by the higher-ups!

His path ahead is not uncertain; he doesn't need to grope in the dark.

As long as you can gain a certain status in the Witch Clan, you'll have no shortage of opportunities to learn the Three Thousand Great Daos.

Choosing this now would undoubtedly be a potential loss.

but……

Why is Xi Huang so confident about the potential wartime shaman talent training program that the Wu tribe might have in the future?

Do you believe it will definitely happen?

Feng Xi frowned, finding the matter quite intriguing.

After thinking about it for a while, he gave up on his own initiative.

It's too simplistic to consider the thoughts of someone with such great supernatural powers; there's really no need for that.

"If my Wu Clan were to implement a training program, then this fragment of the Creation Jade Disc would be somewhat useless," Feng Xi sighed. "However, without the three thousand Great Daos recorded within this counterfeit jade disc, allowing me to learn advanced teachings in advance, attain a transcendent realm, and boost my strength, how could I have stood out from the trillions of elites of the Wu Clan, accumulated immense merits, and been selected as a talent worthy of cultivation?"

"Although I think I'm already quite excellent... there are millions of people like me in the Witch Clan!"

To rank among the top few million in the trillion-strong witch clan is already a remarkable achievement.

Even so, Feng Xi still felt uncertain... the competition was just too fierce!

"The manifestation of strength isn't necessarily an improvement in realm or cultivation level; it could also be something like combat power?" Fuxi smiled. "Or perhaps, it could be the enhancement of potential, the sublimation of cultivation speed, the accumulation of knowledge over time, and surpassing others?"

"There are so many methods for this."

"Take another look at these amazing features; perhaps a surprise is hidden among them?"

"It can meet your needs in both the early and late game, and also satisfy your goal of survival on the battlefield... Among thousands of cheats, there is always one that suits you."

Feng Xi listened, put down the jade disc fragment in her hand, and turned her gaze to the other side.

There, a dazzling array of magical treasures shimmered with an alluring luster.

On the battlefield of the Lich Wars, if you want to earn battle merits, you first need to have high combat power.

And what could be more direct and faster than the combat power boost brought by a powerful spiritual treasure?

Just like the Nine Netherworld Diagram... When Emperor Jiang, the Ancestral Witch, allowed him to wield this spiritual treasure at its peak, even if a Taiyi expert came to attack, he could use the diagram to refine them into ashes!

"Unfortunately, there aren't any powerful innate spiritual treasures here... they're all acquired spiritual treasures, though they're not weak either."

Feng Xi touched a scroll of sword formation diagrams, along with four killing swords. As he read the information inside, his eyes turned somewhat red.

The Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation!

The renowned Primordial Killing Array, its power shook countless eons!

Although none of the array masters who controlled this killing array seemed to have a good ending, which was rather frightening, there were no other flaws.

Even if what's before us is just a fake sword formation... its sharp edge is real and terrifying!

Feng Xi stroked the sword formation, imagining planting it on the battlefield one day... When the killing formation is activated, the starry river will be stained with blood!

"With this sword formation in place, slaughtering millions of demons wouldn't be a dream, would it?"

"Then my battle merits will just skyrocket, won't they?"

"Hmm, you have a good eye." The Great Sage Fuxi glanced at it and nodded in approval. "With this sword formation, although your strength is somewhat weak... but given that we are in the midst of a great calamity, with the aura of calamity and evil spirits amplifying it, if you were to fight head-on with someone below the Great Luo level, not many people could do anything to you."

"Then I'll choose this one!" Feng Xi exclaimed with delight.

"Oh?" Fuxi smiled, lightly flicking his hand to send the sword formation forward. "Think it over carefully. Are you sure you don't want to change it?"

"Uh..." Feng Xi sensed something was off and immediately became alert. "Is something wrong?"

"Could this sword formation be demonic, making me stray from my true nature and turn into a demon of slaughter?" He pondered, speculating about some unfavorable possibilities.

"It's not that serious... There are plenty of ways to deal with things like demonic possession or murderous intent." The Great Sage Fuxi shook his head. "There are so many methods to sever the heart and emotions. A little personal emotion is nothing to worry about."

"I just want to say that it's a bit unrealistic for you to think you can use this magic weapon to kill indiscriminately on the battlefield and rack up huge battle merits."

"Why?" Feng Xi asked, puzzled.

"Do you think all the demon gods, demon generals, and demon emperors of the demon race are blind?"

"In a low-level battlefield, the appearance of someone with such exceptional combat skills... what kind of targeted measures do you think you'll face next?"

Fuxi smiled faintly, yet it sent a chill down Fengxi's spine.

The nail that sticks out gets hammered down!

Outstanding rising stars are always targeted.

Even though the Great Luo Supremes couldn't personally kill her because of their status... even a casual suggestion from them would be enough to break Feng Xi's small body.

Indeed, the Zhuxian Sword Formation is incredibly powerful, and it is very difficult to break through it head-on.

But... who says you have to attack head-on?

The primordial world was so vast, and there were so many strange and wonderful techniques.

There are many methods, such as directly striking across time and space to destroy the target.

For example, the Seven Arrows of Nailhead can literally kill a Great Luo Immortal.

For example, there are Gu worms that can lurk invisibly and poison Taiyi.

……

"Since we are the weak, we should be aware of our weakness."

The Great Sage Fuxi sighed, "Remember this: everything must be done in moderation."

"If you exceed this limit, and it doesn't match your true strength and background, then something ominous will happen."

"Do you think that having a killing formation in hand means you can dominate the battlefield?"

"Your thinking is too simplistic."

Xi Huang instructed Feng Xi, "When you're actually on the battlefield, you can perform well, but it's best to just be good."

"A war that has lasted for countless years, a war in which top-level beings frequently enter the fray and make their moves, always has too many unexpected events that erase some amazing talents."

"No matter how outstanding a talent is, if they cannot grow and develop, it is all in vain."
