There are a total of thirty-six stone carvings in the entire hall, but Yang Qi can only look at eight of them. He is completely unable to perceive the other stone carvings, let alone gain any insights from them.
“No wonder such an opportunity can be given away so easily, and even major superpowers can get a spot.” Yang Qi’s mouth twitched.
At this moment, he had already vaguely understood that, for a cultivator at the Martial Honor Realm, he would probably not gain much from the stone carvings before him. As for the strong men at the Martial King Realm, there were only so many of them in the entire Zi Chen Continent, and with their long lifespans, it would be easy for them to view the stone carvings.
“It’s so useless. No wonder the Martial Honor Realm is rarely heard of.” Yang Qi sighed.
If it was really a great opportunity, he would have fought for it long ago, but in fact, Yang Qi didn't know about the Emperor Wu Stone Carving before Tang Qin told him about it, and he had never heard of it. It's not that there is something wrong with the Emperor Wu Stone Carving, but that the Emperor Wu Stone Carving is too little help to the practitioners of the Martial Honor Realm.
In fact, this is not surprising. The Zichen Continent has been in contact with the universe and has inherited a complete cultivation civilization for millions of years. During these millions of years, the number of Martial King realm powerhouses that have been born has exceeded four digits, and there are countless practitioners at the peak of Martial Honor, Half-Step Martial King, and with perfect artistic conception.
There are so many inheritances about the level of the Martial Honor Realm. Even if the former Wu Shi Great Emperor was the Martial Emperor, his understanding of the Martial Honor Realm might not be higher than that of the Zi Chen Continent. This is just like a university professor who may not know how to teach middle school students better than a middle school teacher.
When it comes to the insights of the Martial King realm, or even the Martial Emperor realm, of course the Great Emperor Wu Shi has a deeper and more correct understanding. But when it comes to the insights of the Martial Honor realm, he is not necessarily much stronger than some of the incredible strong men in the Martial Honor realm, or even ordinary Martial Kings.
Perhaps it was because of this that the stone carvings left by the Wu Shi Emperor were mainly aimed at the martial king realm masters, rather than the martial honor realm masters. It was precisely because of this that the stone carvings in front of them were not very helpful for the martial honor realm practitioners, and at most they only served as a guide.
Understanding all this, Yang Qi couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and then he continued to sense the fluctuations of the Tao in the first stone carving. Although the stone carvings are a bit useless for practitioners in the Martial Honor Realm, they are not completely useless. If you can understand them, it will still be helpful for your future impact on the Martial King Realm.
Although the path on the stone carvings is not the direction of the sword, it is the enlightenment of a Martial Emperor from the beginning of the Martial King realm to the Martial Emperor realm. This is a path that leads directly to the Martial Emperor realm. If a practitioner takes a path similar to this one, he can even learn from it and practice along the way, and the chance of breaking through to the Martial Emperor realm will increase greatly.
“This is the true Tao.”
Sensing the fluctuations of the Tao in the stone carvings, Yang Qi finally understood the profoundness and power of the Tao. In comparison, the artistic conception in front of the Tao is like a toddler. The two are completely incomparable.
While sensing the fluctuations of the Tao on the stone carvings, Yang Qi combined it with his own path and integrated what he had realized into his own path. He suddenly discovered that his path seemed to become wider.
Previously, through the inheritance of the Overlord Sword King, Yang Qi had a guiding light that led him to the perfect state of mind. However, although the guiding light illuminated the road ahead, he had to walk step by step. Now, through the insights on the stone carvings, the road under his feet has become wider, and walking is naturally smoother, easier, and much faster.
However, the stone carvings were at the level of Tao after all. Even if Yang Qi's artistic conception was perfect, it was still far behind Tao. He could only comprehend a tiny part of it. And this kind of comprehension was also changing with the stone carvings, and the amount that could be comprehended was getting smaller and smaller.
The first stone carving is like a long river with artistic conception flowing into it, and the connection is the closest. However, the second stone carving is like a long river with more tributaries flowing into it, which is wider and less can be understood. By the eighth stone carving, it is already the sea at the end of the long river, and the connection with the tributaries at the source is negligible!
Yang Qi looked at the stone carvings in front of him and said with emotion, "As expected of you, Master. I thought the gains wouldn't be that great, but I didn't expect to gain so much."
After these few days of understanding, Yang Qi gained a lot and his artistic conception improved significantly. He realized that he had previously thought that stone carvings were useless and had completely underestimated the means of Emperor Wu Shi.
“Although it is just one kind of Tao, all Taos are interconnected. Master’s understanding of this Tao must have reached the perfect level.” Yang Qi sighed.
Only when one has comprehended the Dao to a perfect level can one depict it so skillfully. Although the first stone carving was only the initial comprehension of the Dao at the Martial King level, in fact, even if a practitioner at the peak of the Martial King level were to carve the first stone carving, it would probably not be possible to reach this level.
The stone carvings in front of him were carved by Wu Shi Great Emperor with his understanding of the Dao at the Martial Emperor level, so as to facilitate the understanding of practitioners at the Martial King level. This was completely a means by which Wu Shi Great Emperor used his own extremely high understanding of the Dao to show it in an easy-to-understand way.
“It’s a pity that my realm is too low and I cannot comprehend more. If a cultivator with perfect artistic conception comes here, he should gain a lot.” Yang Qi said secretly.
The stone carvings in front of them were mainly prepared for the strong men in the Martial King Realm. As for the practitioners in the Martial Honor Realm, although they did gain something, the higher the realm, the greater the gain. Yang Qi was only in the realm of great success of sword intent, which barely reached the minimum standard for viewing stone carvings, so his gains were naturally limited.
Buzz~
At this moment, a strange wave suddenly descended and enveloped Yang Qi's figure.
"It's time to leave."
Yang Qi sighed softly. Nine days was neither long nor short. With his current state of mind, he would not gain anything even if he stayed longer.
Wow~
As the strange wave enveloped the area, Yang Qi's figure disappeared from the hall. The next moment, he appeared outside the stone palace of Emperor Wu.
As soon as Yang Qi appeared, a familiar voice came to his ears, "How is it, did you gain anything?"
"I gained something, but I couldn't even look at most of the stone carvings, so the gains were limited." Yang Qi looked at Tang Qin on the side and said with a wry smile.
Although there were some gains from viewing the stone carvings this time, it was still somewhat different from what Yang Qi had expected and did not meet his expectations.
Ye Qiu, who was standing by, couldn't help but chuckle when he heard this, "Master said that the stone carving was originally reserved for those at the Martial King level. Although practitioners at the Great Perfection of Artistic Realm can also view it, it is difficult to gain much from it. It's already good that you can gain something."
Yang Qi nodded slightly. He was very clear about this. If his realm was improved in the future, he would like to come back to see it again. Maybe he would get some unexpected gains. However, before his realm was perfect, he would not get anything even if he came again. (To be continued)
