Chapter 163
After handing over the task of setting up the formation boundary to Wu Miaomiao, Zhao Mu returned to the house and took out the third-grade treasure pill.
The Great Wisdom Enlightening Pill.
Just by hearing the name, one could tell that this was a pill used to improve one's wisdom and comprehension.
After a brief understanding, Zhao Mu immediately swallowed the pill.
The effect of the treasure pill was very amazing. The moment it entered his mouth, the pure medicinal power rushed straight to the top of Zhao Mu's head.
In an instant, Zhao Mu only felt that his mind was empty. His entire body entered a mysterious state of epiphany. It was as if an old monk had entered a meditative state with Zen thoughts gushing out.
The effect of the pill came quickly and disappeared just as quickly.
In less than an hour, the pill's effect completely disappeared.
Zhao Mu opened his eyes again and ran his thoughts. He felt no different from before, but there seemed to be some differences.
There was a limit to one's wisdom.
It was impossible for one's comprehension to always improve.
Cultivation could be enlightened, but the later the stage, the more difficult it was to improve one's comprehension.
Zhao Mu had already relied on the return system to increase his comprehension to the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Originally, he could not continue to improve, but under the effect of the Great Wisdom Enlightening Pill, Zhao Mu had broken through the shackles and entered a higher realm.
Zhao Mu casually took out a cultivation method from his storage ring.
The medium-grade Heaven-level Green Lotus Fire Art.
Opening the cultivation method, Zhao Mu carefully read and comprehended it.
In less than 15 minutes, Zhao Mu completely understood this cultivation method.
"It's too simple. Heaven-level cultivation methods are just so-so. The cultivation methods I've cultivated so far are trash!"
Zhao Mu suddenly sighed with emotion.
After being enlightened, the Heaven-level cultivation methods in Zhao Mu's eyes had even become trash.
He suddenly had a feeling of loneliness at the top.
No wonder it was said that wise people were lonely.
In the eyes of wise people, the essence of everything could be seen at a glance. Gradually, they would become uninterested in external things.
The higher the threshold, the higher the pursuit.
There was no longer any room for low-end things in their eyes.
Zhao Mu simply sorted out the cultivation methods he had cultivated in the past in his mind and could not help but shake his head.
He had spent so much time cultivating these trashy cultivation methods. It was simply a waste.
Only the Burning Moon Star Flame Dharma Idol was worth cultivating. Everything else was worthless in his eyes.
"For me now, other than learning fire-based techniques that can increase the power of my Dharma Power, other techniques are basically useless to me. Even a Heaven-level Upper Level technique is not worth mentioning to me. However, techniques above the Heaven-level are too rare, and it is not easy to obtain them."
Zhao Mu sighed helplessly.
He could only try to see if he could obtain more skills that surpassed Heaven Tier through the refund system.
That's right, the little disciple I just accepted can be put to good use.
As long as he imparted a Heaven Grade High Grade Cultivation Technique to her, if she was lucky, she might be able to get what she wanted.
However, he had to wait until tomorrow to test it out. He had already used up today's refunds.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Zhao Mu pushed the door open again, only to see that Wu Miaomiao was still engraving the array formation.
Zhao Mu glanced at it and nodded approvingly.
This little disciple of his was indeed somewhat talented. His method of setting up the formation was rather proficient, and the divine imprints he carved were all neat and tidy.
To an array master, the method of engraving divine inscriptions was akin to the brush and ink of a calligrapher.
Whether it was good or bad could be seen at a glance.
Wu Miaomiao was definitely a genius in array formation. Even without Zhao Mu's guidance, with her own talent, she had a high chance of entering the Grandmaster realm.
After a while, Wu Miaomiao finally finished. She ran to Zhao Mu with a smile and asked, "Master, do you think the Illusion Formation of the Dongxuan Immortal Realm that I set up is good enough for you?"
"It's so-so. Your understanding of the Heaven and Earth Divine Runes is not bad, but your use of the Divine Runes is too conservative. Look at the structure of the Divine Runes here, it can obviously be optimized to be more concise on the basis of ensuring the effect of the formation. Also, the connection between the formation eye and the outer formation is not tight enough. If you attack from here, the stable structure of the formation will be quickly broken."
Zhao Mu pointed out several flaws in one breath. Wu Miaomiao opened her eyes wide and pricked up her ears to listen carefully. She looked like a student who was humbly learning and was rather obedient.
After Zhao Mu finished speaking, Wu Miaomiao looked at Zhao Mu like a little fangirl.
"Master, you are really too amazing. To be able to acknowledge you as my master is already the blessing of three lifetimes!"
"There's no need to flatter me. If you have the time, you might as well learn and practice more."
"Master's teachings are right. This disciple will definitely work harder and not let down Master's kindness in nurturing me."
Zhao Mu waved his hand, "Alright, that's all for today. From now on, come here to learn from me every day. I won't hide anything that I can teach you. How much you can learn from me will depend on your own comprehension."
"Disciple obeys!"
Wu Miaomiao bowed and left.
Zhao Mu spent another hour improving the array formation that Wu Miaomiao had set up.
After his modifications, this array formation should be enough to deal with the attacks of a Divine Transformation Realm cultivator.
Of course, in the Sword Immortal Pavilion, this kind of thing would most likely not happen.
The most important function of the array formation was to ensure privacy. After all, there was a Devil Sect Empress living in his house, so he had to be careful.
After finishing his work, Zhao Mu went out for a stroll and roughly understood the layout of the Hidden Sword Valley.
After a few inquiries, Zhao Mu came to the most bustling place in the Hidden Sword Valley.
This was a trading market, a place for sword disciples and guests to trade cultivation resources.
The scale of the market was not small. There were dozens of shops of various sizes, and even more stalls along the street.
Night had just fallen, so there were still quite a lot of people in the market.
As soon as Zhao Mu entered the market, he heard a series of shouts.
Taking a closer look, it turned out that two cultivators were having a sword duel in an open space.
The two cultivators were both Nascent Soul Realm sword disciples. They wielded flying swords and their eyes were sharp as they emitted sword intent to attack each other.
Although the sword intent was weak, there were very few Nascent Soul cultivators who could master it.
"Why are the two of them fighting here?" Someone who had just arrived asked curiously.
"These two bastards found a piece of Ten Thousand Years Glazed Crystal in the Earth Star Mine and sold it for a good price. But they fought because of the uneven distribution of the loot."
"The Ten Thousand Year Black Crystal is a good material to forge a top-grade flying sword. These two are both sword disciples. How could they be willing to sell such a treasure?"
"I heard that someone in the Holy Land wants to refine a Taoist Weapon Flying Sword and offered twice the usual price to buy the Ten Millennia Glazed Crystal. Otherwise, who would be willing to sell it?"
Zhao Mu lost interest after watching for a while.
The duel lasted for half a day and it was a competition of sword intent. Their swords did not move at all.
Although sword cultivator duels had always been like this, there was really nothing to watch.
Zhao Mu bypassed the crowd and continued strolling forward.
At that moment, a familiar figure entered Zhao Mu's sight.
Wasn't that Xing Ziyue?
She had indeed arrived at the Sword Immortal Pavilion early.
Zhao Mu was about to go forward when he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He noticed that beside Xing Ziyue were Wen Yan and Ning Qingying. There were also two middle-aged men. Although their auras were hidden very well, their cultivation levels were definitely not ordinary. They were constantly paying attention to Wen Yan's movements, as if to ensure her safety.
Zhao Mu hesitated for a moment and decided to wait and see.
