The light screen showed a expanse of green, and within the green light, a figure flickered, with a green vine relentlessly giving chase.
"This is..."
Ender felt a sense of doubt as he looked at the light screen before him.
Soon, he noticed the clue: this was a battle recording of two World Masters. The dodging World Master was a Warrior, while the World Master controlling the green vine was a Spiritual Master.
In just a moment, the Warrior World Master, who had been constantly dodging in the light screen, was bound by the green vine, and the next scene left him astonished.
The expanse of green on the light screen transformed into a towering pillar!
"What! That green expanse is also a Spirit Weapon?" Ender was surprised. "That Spiritual Master World Master can wield two Spirit Weapons simultaneously!"
As the towering pillar descended, the Warrior World Master let out a desperate cry before dying beneath the towering pillar.
"World Master Azure Wood!"
Ender silently recited the name the Warrior World Master had called out before his death.
"This is the mentor the Molten Rock Emperor arranged for me," he thought. "To be able to kill that Warrior World Master in a single move, World Master Azure Wood is definitely a top-tier World Master, one whose comprehension of Law is extremely close to that of an Immortal. No wonder World Master Cheng Ji said he was a very strong World Master."
A World Master with a title, whose strength was extremely close to an Immortal, would be more than sufficient to guide him in his Cultivation as a mentor.
"His name is Hoka, known as World Master Azure Wood," World Master Molten Rock said. "He is currently on his way back to the Molten Rock Empire. You will meet him shortly."
"Yes," Ender nodded.
"He's here." As World Master Molten Rock finished speaking, a green figure appeared in the palace.
Ender looked at the newcomer and saw a handsome man with green hair, beneath which was a decorative headband covering the Law recognition mark on his forehead.
Hoka first nodded slightly to World Master Molten Rock, then looked at Ender and asked, "Is this him?"
"It is him," World Master Molten Rock nodded.
"Follow me," Hoka said, then turned and flew out of the palace.
Ender turned to look at World Master Molten Rock, his expression a little confused. This World Master Azure Wood didn't even recognize his own student; was he reliable?
World Master Molten Rock nodded slightly and transmitted, "World Master Azure Wood merely has a slightly eccentric personality. You'll get used to him once you spend more time with him."
Hearing this, Ender felt relieved and flew out of the palace... As soon as he left the palace, Ender noticed that the setting he was in had changed. He was now in a garden with tall trees and small pavilions all around.
He looked around and saw World Master Azure Wood sitting under a large tree, so he quickly walked over.
Ender respectfully said, "Mentor Hoka."
"These are the Spirit Weapon materials I use. Take a close look."
As World Master Azure Wood finished speaking, a light screen suddenly appeared, then he gently waved his hand, and the light screen flew to Ender's front.
Reading the text on the light screen before him, Ender silently thought, "Green Vine Pillar, a Spirit Weapon of the Wood Origin Law, extremely difficult to wield. It is a fifth-tier top-grade Spirit Weapon, second only in power to the nine great divine weapons of the controller, and has six forms."
"First form, Azure Wood Thorn, when wielded, it is considered invincible among the Stellar Rank."
"Second form, Endless Vine, when wielded, it is considered invincible among the Universe Level."
"Third form, Heavenly Net, when wielded, it is considered invincible among the Domain Master."
"Fourth form, Mimicry Azure Serpent, when wielded, it represents a relatively strong level among the World Master Level."
"Fifth form, Vine World, when combined with a World Projection or Domain, its maximum potential is unleashed, with extremely strong binding power. When wielded, it represents a top-tier level among the World Master Level."
"Sixth form, Pillar Reaching Heaven and Earth, to be able to wield this form is considered invincible among World Masters, approaching the complete comprehension of the Wood Origin Law."
After finishing reading the information on the Green Vine Pillar, Ender thought, "The first three Realms are uniformly described as invincible within their respective Realms, but in reality, they only bully ordinary peers. Against Geniuses, it ultimately comes down to Law comprehension."
He secretly speculated, "The requirement to wield the first form, Azure Wood Thorn, is probably an initial comprehension of Law, similar to the first form of the Divine Weapon in the original work."
"The second form, Endless Vine, is difficult to estimate, but from the description of the sixth form, Pillar Reaching Heaven and Earth, the Law comprehension required to wield the sixth form should be at the ninth level of the Tongtian Bridge, approaching the tenth level."
"The fifth form, Vine World, when wielded, represents a top-tier World Master level, estimated to be at the seventh or eighth level of the Tongtian Bridge."
"The fourth form, Mimicry Azure Serpent, when wielded, represents a relatively strong World Master level, estimated to be at the sixth level of the Tongtian Bridge. The efficiency of Law comprehension at the World Master Level is very high, so experienced World Masters with decent talent should be at this level."
"The third form, Heavenly Net, when wielded, is said to be invincible among the Domain Master, but I estimate the Law comprehension requirement to be at the fourth or fifth level of the Tongtian Bridge."
"Reversing the deduction, the Law comprehension requirement for the second form, Endless Vine, should be around the second level of the Tongtian Bridge."
After some speculation, Ender squinted his eyes and thought, "The difficulty of wielding the Green Vine Pillar is indeed very high. To wield the next form, Law comprehension must increase by at least one level of the Tongtian Bridge. No wonder it is hailed as a top-tier Spirit Weapon second only to the nine great divine weapons of the controller."
The nine great divine weapons of the controller, eight of them are made by combining one of the eight lower Laws—Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth, Wind, Lightning, and Light—with either the Space or Time higher Law.
As for the last divine weapon, it is created by combining both the Space and Time higher Laws.
The nine great divine weapons of the controller are extremely difficult to use, but their power is naturally also extremely strong. The ninth form can contend with an Immortal, making them the strongest Spirit Weapons used by Controllers below the Immortal Rank.
Some relatively poor Immortals who cannot afford sixth-tier Spirit Weapons sometimes use the nine great divine weapons as a transition, as the final form can temporarily contend with an Immortal, possessing part of the power of a sixth-tier Spirit Weapon, making them barely usable.
While Ender was still pondering the difficulty of wielding the Green Vine Pillar, World Master Azure Wood, Hoka, spoke, "Finished reading?"
"Finished," Ender replied.
"This is a secret technique I created."
Hoka's thought moved, and another light screen appeared, then he gently waved his hand, and that light screen once again moved to Ender's front.
"Do not spread it, or I will kill you!" Hoka said faintly, but his words were not calm!
Ender quickly nodded, "Yes!"
He had seen World Master Azure Wood kill another World Master with a single strike in the recording, and knew how powerful he was. From his serious demeanor, it was clear that this was not a joke!
"Your Green Vine Pillar will be provided by the Molten Rock Secret Realm. You can Cultivate the secret technique and the Green Vine Pillar whether you are in the Original Universe or the Virtual Universe."
Hoka paused. He needed to adjust, as it had been a long time since he had spoken so much to a living person other than his friends.
"Three months," he continued. "If you cannot wield the first form of the Green Vine Pillar after three months, it means you are not suited for this Spirit Weapon."
Ender glanced at the light screen before him and found that it contained only the Cultivation of the Wood Origin Law, as well as the Cultivation of the Green Vine Pillar.
If he, under these conditions, spent three months and still couldn't wield the first form of the Green Vine Pillar, then he truly wasn't suited...
