Darren turned a page of the ancient book. Written on the title page was the name of the book—the Rule Formula.
He began to peruse a page from the book. "The Thunder Leading Skill, the Fire Controlling Skill, the Wind Controlling Skill, the Sketch of the Underground Fleeing Skill, the Taboo Region…"
It was the book's table of contents.
There was a few basic information about the rule cultivator on the next page.
"The most basic skill a rule cultivator is able to use is the power of heaven and earth. Every strong rule cultivator is able to control the nature power, namely the wind and the thunder. Their rule spells carry an extremely tremendous power. Those who cultivate the taboo rule spell will even be able to kill a Grand Realm master,"
Darren mumbled as he continued to read the texts.
It only took him an hour to finish reading the entire book.
'The book introduced the elementary martial formulas used for offense by the rule cultivators, ' he concluded in his mind.
However, regardless of how basic the knowledge was, it could not be learned that easily. It required cultivators to have at least a level ten Spirit Power.
When Darren first came to the Holy Land, he had met a number of rule cultivators, but as he came to think of it, their abilities were not even regarded as rudimentary. They were not very powerful considering they had only learned a small handful of martial formulas.
'Disappointingly, I only reached level six after assimilating the Spirit Power of those rule cultivators. Even if I learn a few more martial formulas, it probably won't help much.' Darren felt somewhat unsatisfied.
"Wait," he uttered as a thought suddenly came to his mind.
"On the day, when I was tested in the Black Cliff of Sword Intent, the Sword Type Creatures that appeared in the first pass have the attributes of fire and thunder. But I was rejected when I tried to assimilate them. Can these attribute rules be attached to the sword intent?" Darren wondered aloud to himself.
He then immediately summoned the inheritance skill with his spiritual sense and entered the World of Rule.
The entire World of Rule was in silver color and was covered in rules, mostly Avatar Rule and a few other rules.
He tried to recall everything he learned from the Rule Formula. Soon, he began to mobilize his Spirit Power according to what was mentioned in the book.
"Alright, there it is," he said as the rule lines materialized. "The purple lines should be the rule of thunder element, the dark grey lines should be the rule of earth element, and those are the rules of wind and fire."
Darren was able to make the lines appear by using his Spirit Power in the silver World of Rule.
He tried to let his Spirit Power come into contact with the rule lines.
"Ah!" he suddenly cried out. As he touched the Thunder Rule, he felt a sharp pain in his brain and a numbness all over his body, so he promptly withdrew his Spirit Power.
'The Thunder Rule is too violent. It's probably better if I try the Wind Rule first, ' he thought.
Darren directed his Spirit Power towards the pale green lines.
As if they had a life of their own, the green lines started to move at a blistering speed, evading his Spirit Power.
However, he didn't give up. He kept chasing the green lines.
After a while, he finally succeeded in trying to communicate with the green lines.
A door opened and numerous green lines were spread out in front of him.
But then, a sudden feeling of fatigue washed over him. He used up quite a lot of his Spirit Power while he was chasing the lines and it was starting to run out.
So he immediately stopped using the Spirit Power and he reverted back to his normal state.
"Very well. It seems I've successfully communicated with the Wind Rule. As long as I practice according to the book's instructions, I will soon be able to command the Wind Rule," Darren said, pleased with himself.
However, it was not an easy task to command the rules. It required very strong Spirit Power.
"Let me have a try!" Although he was extremely tired, he still couldn't control his curiosity.
Following the description in the book, Darren released his Spirit Power and a feeling of lightness spread all throughout his body; it was the Wind Rule helping accelerate his speed.
At the same time, he also released his sword intent. Mobilizing his Spirit Power, he tried to attach the Wind Rule to his sword intent.
