Patriarch Dugu raised an eyebrow, signaling Mo Hua to continue.

Mo Hua said, "Sword Dao, Formations, Spells, Martial Arts, are all forms of the Dao."

"Spiritual Power condenses into Skill Patterns, which is a spell; Spiritual Power generates Formation Patterns, which is a formation; Spiritual Power is driven by Blood Qi, transforming into the Strength of fists and feet; naturally, Spiritual Power is driven by Sword Techniques and Spirit Sword, turning into Sword Qi..."

"The form of the power changes, but the power itself remains unchanged."

Mo Hua spoke with clarity and eloquence.

Patriarch Dugu's gaze was filled with surprise.

He finally understood why his usually stern junior brother unexpectedly praised this child like a blooming flower.

This insight is truly astonishing.

In swordsmanship, he might be a bit slow, but that is due to a lack of foundation.

Once it involves the realm of Divine Sense, areas he is familiar with, and even the comprehension of the "Dao", this child's insight is so lively it doesn't seem human...

Patriarch Dugu asked another question, "How does Spiritual Power form a spell?"

"Through the meridians, forming Skill Patterns, condensing into spells..." Mo Hua replied.

But after speaking, he paused for a moment.

The Patriarch wouldn't ask such a simple question.

Mo Hua pondered for a moment, then said slowly:

"Spiritual Power passes through the Skill Patterns in the meridians, condensing into spells; through the patterns of formations, generating formations... In other words, it is transformed through certain Dao 'Laws'..."

"Skill Patterns, Sword Forms, and Formation Formations are all some sort of 'incarnation' of Dao Laws, using these laws, causing the Spiritual Power itself to produce different Power of Killing..."

Mo Hua faintly felt as though he had grasped something.

Patriarch Dugu further hinted, "Your sword cultivation's weakest point is the inability to condense powerful Sword Qi."

"In other words, your understanding of the law that transforms Spiritual Power into 'Sword Qi' is too shallow."

"Therefore..."

"Therefore," Mo Hua suddenly realized, "use the Dao of Formation to replace the Dao of swordsmanship, use Formation to 'simulate Sword Qi'! Just like I use Sword Control..."

Patriarch Dugu was taken aback, "You can also control swords?"

"Not really..." Mo Hua said softly, "I just practiced it messily by myself for fun."

In a certain sense, it is purely "crooked ways and evil paths."

Patriarch Dugu thought for a moment, then understood what Mo Hua had done, nodding in approval:

"Although it's not mainstream, your idea is still good, but it cannot be considered orthodox Sword Dao."

Mo Hua took it as a compliment from the Patriarch, and smiled shyly.

Patriarch Dugu nodded, then said: "The principle is such, using Formation to transform into sword, within Divine Thought, it should also be feasible, but I, after all, am not a Formation Master, I don't know how to exactly make this transformation."

"You can go back and ponder it yourself, if there's anything unclear, come ask me later."

"Also..."

Patriarch Dugu took out a jade slip, the jade slip was ancient, with no engravings or markings on its surface, obviously recorded by himself.

Patriarch Dugu said, "The original scroll of Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue, most have been destroyed, this is what I recorded down, it contains the most complete spell point of Transforming Sword Skill."

"You cannot take this out, just view it here, as much as you can."

"Don't underestimate 'Transforming Sword Skill'..."

Patriarch Dugu spoke in a deep voice:

"In Divine Sword True Sword Art, Transforming Sword Skill is fundamental, the power of all Sword Moves depends on your foundation in Transforming Sword Skill."

"Strong Transforming Sword, then all sword moves are strong."

Mo Hua could hardly contain the excitement in his expression, nodding, "Yes, Patriarch, I will definitely study well!"

Then he respectfully received the jade slip of "Transforming Sword Skill" from Patriarch Dugu.

This is the orthodox canon of Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue.

With a heart full of excitement, Mo Hua caressed the jade slip for a moment, then submerged his Divine Sense into it, row after row of vividly etched words emerged in his mind:

"Taixu Mind Transforming Sword True Jue · Transforming Sword Skill..."

"Sword Qi condensed, with sword manifesting intent, transformed into sword form..."

"Transform the sword in hand into the sword in heart."

"High swordsmanship, exquisite Sword Qi, manifest into sword forms, becoming increasingly resplendent..."

"Different swordsmanship results in different Divine Thought Sword Forms..."

"Different cultivators have different insights into Sword Dao, leading to variations in Sword Transformation..."

...

Mo Hua quickly skimmed it once, then gradually came to a realization:

"Sword Dao is also Dao, formations are also Dao..."

"First research the outward form, then through the outward form, understand the essence of Sword Qi, which is the law of Spiritual Power transformation."

"The 'laws' of swordsmanship, my understanding is too shallow, then find ways to use the 'laws' of Formations to replace Sword Dao, derive Sword Qi."

"This means..."

Mo Hua only felt he had vaguely realized something, lowered his head in contemplation, to capture the inspiration passing through his mind, after a moment, his thoughts suddenly became clear:

Sword Array!

Use Sword Array as the law!

"The Sword Array itself, uses formations to derive or amplify Sword Qi, in itself is the presentation of Sword Dao rules in the form of formations."

"This way, comprehending the Sword Array, analyzing the mystery of Sword Array deriving Sword Qi, to a certain extent can also comprehend Sword Intent, thereby compensating for the weaknesses in his own Sword Dao."

"From the perspective of formations, dissect Sword Dao, thus integrating them into one, and Sword Array is the best medium..."

Mo Hua's eyes grew brighter and brighter.

Patriarch Dugu also nodded slightly.

This child is indeed wise, basically understanding it with just a hint.

Patriarch Dugu thought for a moment, finally said: "Sword Cultivators don't study formations, even if they do, it's hard to master them. Generally, Formation Masters are not Sword Cultivators."

"Therefore, ordinary cultivators either study swordsmanship or formations, the two are distinct and each learns their own."

"It is rare to find a cultivator who is proficient in swordsmanship and has reached the pinnacle in formations, involving the deeper layers of 'Dao'."
