Chapter 828 - 433 Establishing One’s Own Way, Establishing the Way of Domain
```
Above the Domain Realm, the Martial Arts Techniques!
Xu Yan, overwhelmed with excitement, said reverently, "Thank you, Master, your disciple will surely comprehend it soon!"
"Hmm."
Li Xuan’s eyes were profound, as if piercing through all things in heaven and earth.
"In the Domain Realm, the body is the domain, the Martial Arts Divine Skill is the principle, I am the Domain, the Domain is me. Have you, my disciple, gained any insights into the Domain while walking through it?
"How do you view this Domain, and how is it similar or different from the Martial Arts Domain you’ve comprehended?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yan was startled and fell into deep thought.
"The body as the Domain, how is my Martial Arts Domain the same or different from the great Domain we reside in?"
As he pondered, Xu Yan gained some enlightenment.
"Taicang Martial Artists, without the Domain Realm’s techniques, refine the Heaven and Earth Laws where they reside, whereas my Domain Realm involves cultivating my own Martial Arts Domain.
"I have my own Domain, and I will eventually transcend the Domain I reside in and become a Domain unto myself..."
Xu Yan’s enlightenment deepened, and his understanding of the Domain Realm grew.
He then thought of Divine Skills.
Divine Skills are the principles of a martial artist’s self, and since they are the principles of one’s own Domain, does this mean that after the Domain Realm, one can cultivate any Divine Skill as one pleases?
If the Divine Skills born from oneself are seen as principles for Innate Warriors and the Divine Skills cultivated later belong to Acquired Warriors, does this imply that the more one cultivates and perceives Divine Skills, the more principles one’s own Domain will possess?
Even focusing exclusively on one Divine Skill, making one’s own Domain have only one unique principle and refining this Divine Skill or the principle of one’s own Domain to the ultimate level is also extremely powerful.
"Master, this Domain operates by its own laws, while my Domain Realm ultimately lacks the laws that govern the operation of the Domain, making it a false Domain, not quite real.
"Yet my Domain has infinite possibilities, capable of continuous expansion and elevation, and one day it may be no different from the true Domain."
Xu Yan said with a bright and earnest gaze.
Li Xuan nodded with satisfaction, as Xu Yan’s perception of the Domain Realm had improved, which brought some changes to his Domain Realm strength.
"The Domain has its origin and its Dao Principles; it is alive, filled with vitality, hence all things in the world exist.
"The Domain has its way; all living beings come to understand it. Those who acquire it transcend the common and step onto the path of seeking the great Way of Domain.
"In pursuing the great Way of Domain, comprehending the great Way of Domain, drawing on the Domain as the source and the force, yet also being trapped by the Domain, unable to transcend the Domain.
"The Martial Arts I pass on to you are based on the Domain as the foundation, with the Domain as the aid, ultimately to transcend the Domain, transcend all things in the world, free from all restraints, roaming freely within the great Dao.
"The great Dao is obscure and vast, rootless and trackless; for those who feel the great Dao, heaven, earth, and all realms are contained in a single thought; for those who obtain the great Dao, a single thought gives rise to life, a single thought extinguishes life..."
Li Xuan’s eyes were profound, a mysterious aura swirling about him, unfathomable. As he spoke, his words were enigmatic, outlining the concept of the Dao in an abstruse and profound manner.
He further expanded and elevated the path of Martial Arts, laying the foundation for Xu Yan.
As for the great Dao?
Obscure and vast, omnipresent yet invisible, the way of comprehension depends entirely on Xu Yan.
Li Xuan believed that with this foundation set in place, Xu Yan’s realm would be sufficient, and he would naturally come to comprehend it.
Xu Yan felt that his master’s words were extremely profound and enigmatic. He vaguely sensed an enlightening truth washing over him, gaining a fuzzy concept of the great Dao and all things in the universe.
It seemed that even a slight insight would be of endless benefit.
Li Xuan fiddled with the Jade Ruyi in his hand, allowing Xu Yan to digest the mysterious discourse he had just provided.
"...For those who feel the great Dao, heaven, earth, and all realms are contained in a single thought; for those who obtain the great Dao, a single thought gives rise to life, a single thought extinguishes life..."
Xu Yan’s heart was profoundly shaken.
What a state this was.
"Master’s realm is once again beyond my imagination. What level is this? Has Master obtained the great Dao? Or is it something even stronger?"
Xu Yan sighed in admiration, no wonder Master said that ants were not worthy of his remembrance!
With Master’s realm and strength, even that majestic figure I saw in the wilderness seemed minuscule in comparison.
"I’m not even in the Void-breaking Realm, too weak, even less than an ant!"
Xu Yan felt ashamed, but then he was immediately invigorated, "My modest goal is to transcend the Domain, to be on a par with and even surpass that mighty figure; the next goal is to obtain the great Dao!
"Starting now, I will try to comprehend the obscure and vast great Dao. If I can perceive even a trace, it will be of endless benefit, laying a solid foundation for obtaining the great Dao!"
Xu Yan’s entire being was boiling with enthusiasm.
"Master, your disciple will definitely practice diligently, walk the world, comprehend the Dao, and one day, I will surely obtain the great Dao!"
Li Xuan nodded with a look of gratification.
"Good, I believe you can do it."
"I will not disappoint you, Master!"
Xu Yan said respectfully.
"Good, very good!"
Li Xuan was immensely satisfied.
"Next, I will teach you the Martial Arts Techniques that are above the Domain Realm, the Domain Realm has its Domain, how can it be without the Way of Domain?
"Hence, above the Domain Realm, is the Establishing Dao Realm!
"The one who Establishes Dao, establishes one’s own Dao, the Dao of the Domain...!"
The Establishing Dao Realm! Nôv(el)B\\jnn
This was a realm that Li Xuan had meticulously considered and established after repeated deliberation and adjustment.
It was also the beginning of the subsequent path of Martial Arts, concerning the future direction of Martial Arts.
