Book 2: Chapter 12.1: Dao Spirit and Sword Seal

Next, Bai Qiuran passed on Tang Ruowei a palm technique and an Earth Escape technique.
It’s not just any normal escape technique but the one that has been improved numerous times by Bai Qiuran. The normal Earth Escape technique, as the name implied, can only operate in soft soil, but Bai Qiuran’s Earth Escape technique could be used anywhere as long as it’s underground.
Whether it’s rock and sand, ores, gold or iron, or even lava in the veins of the earth, as long as Tang Ruowei didn’t go to the core, she could theoretically pass through.
It could be said that the user could move freely in the mother earth.
And like the sword move, this palm technique was also direct and simple: It just shot at the enemy’s chest at full speed.
As for its power, in the hands of Bai Qiuran, he used as much strength as a normal Foundation Establishment stage cultivator, yet the palm crushed a human-sized piece of hard Western obsidian into powder.
And for some reason, Tang Ruowei’s accomplishments in Creator’s Body-Forging Technique was quite high. With its enhancements, the power of her palm was even more powerful than that sword move.
Tang Ruowei has now entered the Foundation Establishment stage, not only she gained true Qi, but her Soul Awareness has also been improved. That allowed Bai Qiuran to directly imprint a small capacity of knowledge into her mind, which was more convenient for him to teach. After demonstrating these two moves, he directly transferred the practicing method into Tang Ruowei’s mind, then began to explain the next step.
“The next thing to teach you is the cultivation method of Dao Spirit and Sword Seal.”
“What is this Dao Spirit and Sword Seal?”
Tang Ruowei was curious.
“The so-called Dao is the path that cultivators choose to study. There are three thousand Dao in the world. Each cultivator must choose one or more of them to study, and when they study a certain Dao to a certain degree, a Dao Spirit will appear in the cultivator ’s inner space, representing their status and degree on this avenue. For example, the people of the Qingming Sect basically condensed Sword Dao Spirit, which has the same image as themselves and holds a long sword. At this time it’s formed, the cultivator will also be inspired by the Will of Heaven, they would comprehend an exquisite sword move, or the method of forging a superb flying sword. Of course, other Dao may have different details, but they are basically the same. ”
Bai Qiuran shook his finger and explained:
“The Sword Seal is a kind of Hand Seal. To be serious, this is the skill your master’s most proud of. I can confidently say that in the current Nine Provinces, no one is better than me in this aspect.”
Having said that, Bai Qiuran raised his head very proudly.
Tang Ruowei blinked and asked:
“Then why I didn’t hear of it before?”
“Because today’s young people are so impetuous that when it is difficult to practice the Hand Seal, they will choose to practice the spells which can be cast as long as they have reached the corresponding stage.”
Bai Qiuran said sadly:
“They don’t know that Hand Seal developed by our ancestors is the thing that best fits the Dao. How sad.”
“Oh.”
After several years of getting along, Tang Ruowei could easily extract the truth from Bai Qiuran’s words.
“To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is difficult to practice, although it is not restricted by cultivation level, its power is similar to that of spells. Everyone else goes to practice spells, only you practice Hand Seal, so naturally, you became the best. Is that right?”
“Stop, stop! You flat-chested rebellious student!”
Bai Qiuran thrived.
“How do you say that?”
Tang Ruowei stared back at him without fear.
