It is rumored that there was once a secret method in the heavenly realm, which could predict the direction of others' attacks according to the direction of murderous energy. The murderous spirit refers to the position of the opponent. As long as you can distinguish the direction of the murderous aura, you can avoid the killer blow at a critical time. This kind of secret method is not easy to use for spells and magic weapons, after all, the spells are a dozen and a large piece, even if you sense the murderous point in advance, there is no way to avoid it in time. But flying swords are different, that kind of point-to-point attack, as long as it is predicted in advance, it can be easily avoided. Therefore, the person who learned this secret method at the beginning can be described as a kendo nemesis, and most of the sword cultivation has been completely destroyed.

There were many people who learned that secret method at the beginning, after all, the founder of that secret method was a sect of masters. After he created the secret method, he naturally passed it on to his disciples. That secret method is naturally true, as long as there is not much difference in strength, sword cultivation is not their opponent at all. After all, his flying sword was expected before he could shoot, and there was no way to continue this kind of battle. Gradually, that sect also became prominent, and many people came to the door to apprentice, wanting to ask to crack the secret method of the ancient kendo. Although the ancient sword path cannot be said to be incomprehensible, for people of that era, when the cultivation is comparable, ordinary monks are really not the opponent of sword cultivation.

In order to restrain sword cultivation, many monks committed themselves to apprenticeship, just to obtain secret methods. Since then, people of his sect have been able to walk sideways when they go out. The ancient sword cultivator who was once tyrannical was suddenly suppressed, and as soon as the sword cultivator saw the people of that sect, he retreated one after another, and there was no longer the glory of the past. Some people say that sword cultivation hurts heaven and harmony, so it should be restrained. Some people also say that sword cultivation is a crippled way, and if you only do not keep it, it is not in line with the way of heaven. There are even people who say that sword cultivators are brutal and abnormal, and they should have been eradicated a long time ago.

If it was changed to before, as soon as this kind of remark came up, there would be sword cultivators who came to the door and asked them about the problem of cultivation. It's a pity that since the secret method came out, the sword cultivator has been suppressed so much that he can't raise his head, and naturally he doesn't dare to do that kind of arrogant thing. In particular, most of the people who spread this kind of talk are people who have learned the secret method. If you can't hold back your anger and come to the door, not to mention whether you can get justice for the time being, you will first have to be restrained by others, but you will lose face greatly. So during that time, also known as the Dark Age of Sword Cultivation, the entire Ancient Sword Cultivation was almost completely cut off because of this, and no one went to refine the sword anymore.

It wasn't until later that the group of people who learned the secret method died, and this secret method was completely lost, and the so-called nemesis was never mentioned again. As for why the lineage was severed, it was because anyone who learned the secret method was killed at the same time. If you don't have the time and opportunity to pass on the secret method, you can't talk about inheritance. It is precisely because of this that the ancient kendo has preserved its inheritance. Without the so-called nemesis, kendo is still arrogant and abnormal, and there are few opponents in the heavenly realm. The people who used to laugh at them shut up at this time, and they no longer dared to mention anything like nemesis.

And the person who made this great feat was none other than the legendary Sword Immortal Ethereal. He came to the door with a sword and singled out the founder of the secret method. One man and one sword killed hundreds of monks, and slaughtered all those who had learned that secret method. Except for the young disciples of that sect, who escaped by luck because they had not learned the secret method, even the people who left the mountain gate were found and killed one by one. Ethereal Soul doesn't kill many people, but all of them are the secret method inheritors known as the sword cultivators, and their cultivation is not bad. But in front of the Zixiao Thunder Sword, he was still like a chicken, a dog, and he was all killed.

Although Ethereal didn't make any statements, it was more effective than anything she said. He proved with the immortal sword in his hand that the so-called secret method is the natural nemesis of the sword cultivation lineage, which is completely nonsense. If it was really a nemesis, why did the founder who cultivated for the sake of being close to Ethereal Ling'er fail to subdue this arrogant sword immortal, but was killed by this guy along with the disciples of the sect. None of them played the role of nemesis, they were all like chickens, and they were eliminated without any power to fight back.

But he was indeed able to restrain the sword cultivator before, and except for the ethereal spirit, the rest of the sword immortals were more or less affected. But in the hands of Ethereal Spirit, this nemesis is completely non-existent. This strong contrast makes people wonder if he has cultivated some special secret method that can restrain the secret method. But according to the feedback of those who were fortunate enough to watch, Ethereal Ling'er had not used any spells, and just with the fairy sword in his hand, he killed them and defeated them. is the same move, and it becomes unpredictable in the hands of Ethereal Spirit, let alone dodging, even if you want to raise that idea, it is not easy.

At that time, Ethereal Ling'er was a spirit immortal, and he did not have the glory and horror of his peak, but he was able to break the most restrained secret method of kendo with the Zixiao Thunder Sword in his hand, which shows that he has really reached the peak of his kendo. Even the Demon Venerable had to admit that if he simply discussed the cultivation of the way of the sword, Ethereal Ling'er could be said to be the first person in the Heavenly Realm. Even those saints who have an incomparably long lifespan and are almost omniscient and omnipotent may not have his deep understanding of kendo.

After his killing, the so-called secret method of restraint has been completely extinct, and it has not appeared again for tens of thousands of years. No, not to mention appearing, not even hearing about it. Perhaps only among those sects that have been passed down for many years, maybe there are some records of that incident. However, it was also recorded as an anecdote, setting off the domineering of the ancient sword immortals. There are only a handful of people who really know the inside story, and Tianzun is definitely one of them. He is a person who has met with Ethereal Spirit, and even exchanged passages with each other, so he naturally has an in-depth understanding of this history. But he only remembered it, after all, the secret method had been completely lost, and even his old man didn't know it. And the ethereal who knows is reluctant to talk about it deeply, and Zhang Daniu only knows a rough idea of this matter.

If it weren't for the fact that that person's movements happened to be able to avoid all of his sword moves, as well as the subsequent changes, which made him unable to use his strength, he would not have thought that he would still have the honor of witnessing that secret method with his own eyes. Although I am not 100% sure that it is the secret method, there seems to be no better explanation other than that. I've only heard it before, and he, like everyone else, uses it as a vignette to set off the prestige of the ethereal child. But only when he experienced it himself, did he know that this secret method was really very restrained in sword cultivation. His every move was detected in advance, and he could avoid it by the slightest margin, and there was no way to continue fighting this kind of fight.
