Chapter 123: Rain of Sword Intent 1
Translator: Daoist6fubtiW
In the following days.
Chen Daoxuan’s cultivation became very regular
Other than teaching Chen Daochu, Chen Daolan, and the others about refining weapons and alchemy, he was also a teacher.
All that was left was to comprehend spells and Dao patterns to improve his Sword Dao realm.
As time passed.
Chen Daoxuan’s progress in the Wind Sword Dao was getting bigger and bigger until he reached the point where he could not make any progress.
On the surface of the sea not far from Shuanghu Island.
Chen Daoxuan sat cross-legged in the air.
In front of him.
There were two flying swords revolving around them. They were Chen Daoxuan’s flying swords, Flying Snow and Cheng Ying.
Suddenly.
With Chen Daoxuan as the center, drizzling rain began to fall within a radius of a thousand feet.
The curtain of rain connected with the seawater, making splashing sounds.
This was the phenomenon of the sword qi of the Wind and Rain Sword Technique turning into rain.
In the curtain of rain, white marks shuttled back and forth. This was the killing move of the Wind Overturning Rain Sword, formed by the Shadow Bearing Sword.
Compared to a year ago, when he did not obtain Zhou Mubai’s sword dao jade slip.
When Chen Daoxuan used the white mark formed by the Cheng Ying sword again.
He felt that both his power and speed had reached a new level.
Back then, when he killed the female cultivator from the Yun Nation, if he had reached his current Sword Dao realm, he definitely wouldn’t have fought for so long.
At most three swords.
He would be able to break through the other party’s True Essence shield.
Feeling the white mark that had reached its limit, Chen Daoxuan silently withdrew the Flying Snow Cheng Ying Dual Swords.
“After fusing with the wind dao pattern, the power of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique has already increased to its limit. Now…The only thing left is the water dao pattern.”
Chen Daoxuan’s eyes lit up.
Days passed.
In the blink of an eye, three months had passed.
In three months, he had a total of nine chances to gain enlightenment.
It allowed Chen Daoxuan to cultivate two level one water element spells to perfection, and he also comprehended water element runes to a certain level.
He could already try to fuse it with his Sword Dao.
Thinking of this…
Chen Daoxuan controlled the ten stardusts in his sea of consciousness to collide together.
In the next second.
His consciousness flew higher and higher, and his comprehension of the water element sword path became deeper and deeper.
After the time for an incense stick to burn.
Chen Daoxuan opened his eyes.” 1 see. No wonder Zhou Mubai said that everyone who cultivates the sword techniques of the Qian Yuan Sword Sect can eventually comprehend sword intent. It’s just that the difficulty of comprehending sword intent varies.
If I focused on the Wind Chasing Sword Technique or Overflow Rain Sword Technique, it would be even more difficult for me to comprehend sword essence.
Fortunately, the upper limit of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique and the Overflow Rain Sword Technique is much higher than the Wind Chasing Sword Technique and the Overflow Rain Sword Technique, which reduces the difficulty of my comprehension of sword essence!”
Thinking of this, Chen Daoxuan grinned.
It had been more than four years since he obtained the Primordial Dao Enlightenment Scripture’s ability to store comprehension.
Chen Daoxuan was now exactly twenty years old.
Four years.
He had invested most of his epiphany opportunities into comprehending Sword Dao.
So it was.
Only then did he comprehend the profoundness of the sword essence.
From this, one could see how difficult it was to comprehend sword essence and become a sword cultivator.
This was also the reason why Sword Immortal Guang ‘an, Zhou Mubai, was so famous that he was able to enter the Zifu Disciple Rankings.
Chen Daoxuan leaped up.
They flew towards the port of Shuanghu Island.
About a hundred miles away from Shuanghu Island.
Chen Daoxuan sat cross-legged on the surface of the sea again.
Flying Snow and Shadow Bearing flew out of his storage pouch.
Looking at the two flying swords, Chen Daoxuan revealed a confident expression. He knew that he was only a hair’s breadth away from comprehending sword essence.
The so-called half-step into the threshold of sword intent back then seemed so ridiculous to him at this moment.
Back then, he had only cultivated normal sword scriptures to the point where he could not advance any further.
He did not think of using spells to comprehend Dao, nor did he know how to fuse Dao with the sword.
At this moment.
A curtain of rain appeared again.
Compared to the previous rain curtain of sword qi, the rain curtain surrounding Chen Daoxuan seemed to be more lively.
Not only that.
The next moment, a white mark appeared in the rain.
The white mark continued to move through the rain. In the end, the rain of sword Qi suddenly disappeared.
Between Heaven and Earth.
All that was left was a new curtain of rain formed by white marks.
” The sword strikes like a breeze, a breeze like a rain, and a rain of sword intent. 1 see.”
Chen Daoxuan smiled.
More and more terrifying white marks surrounded Chen Daoxuan, as if they wanted to tear everything that entered this world into pieces.
In the next moment.
The white mark disappeared and turned into a rain of sword qi.
The two changed so freely that it was difficult to deal with them.
In the past.
The white mark formed by the Cheng Ying sword was the greatest killing move of Chen Daoxuan’s Wind and Rain Sword.
And after comprehending the Rain Sword Essence, this greatest killing move actually turned into an ordinary white rain curtain.
The change in power produced by this was more than ten times stronger.
What was even more terrifying was that…
Sword intent had the ability to temper a cultivator’s true qi, true essence, and magic power.
Once Chen Daoxuan’s genuine Qi was tempered by the Sword Intent of the Rain of Threads, the quality of his genuine Qi would definitely rise to a higher level.
He wasn’t sure if it was comparable to the true essence of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, but it was definitely several times more powerful than that of an ordinary Qi Condensation cultivator.
Otherwise…
Zhou Mubai wouldn’t have respected this kind of Swordsman so much.
Comprehending sword intent, forging a second-grade White Lotus of Fate.
Chen Daoxuan had already completed two preparations before Foundation Establishment.
What was left was to rely on the accumulation of time and effort to polish his True Qi until it was in a state of perfect integration.
This was a painstaking effort.
Cultivators were not even required to cultivate in seclusion all day long. They could polish their true qi bit by bit in their daily lives.
In fact, after more than a year of polishing his true qi, he had been able to refine his true qi.
Chen Daoxuan realized that the speed at which he polished his True Qi was relatively fast.
It would only take about a year at most.
He should be able to reach the realm mentioned in the Returning Origin Technique, where he could not advance and was completely integrated.
However…
Before that.
He still had to temper his dantian’s true qi with the Silk Rain Sword Intent.
He had worked so hard to comprehend the sword essence at the meditational level precisely for this opportunity to temper his genuine Qi.
Chen Daoxuan would never miss this opportunity.
He returned to the courtyard of the Spiritual Mansion.
The courtyard that was almost destroyed during the last experiment was restored to its original appearance. Chen Daoxuan even made a little change according to his preferences.
For example, he expanded the area of the spirit pond by three times.
Of course.
To expand the area of the spirit pond, one needed to have enough spirit qi.
Fortunately, there were not many cultivators in the Chen family, so the spiritual energy consumed by the spiritual vein every day was not much.
The spirit pond could store enough spirit liquid.
When the cultivators of the Fu generation began to cultivate, it might not be the case.
“Looks like I have to continue upgrading my spirit meridians!”
Chen Daoxuan muttered to himself.
In fact, neither he nor Chen Xianhe had expected the Chen family to develop so quickly.
In just a few years.
Level 1 spirit meridians were not enough.
The reason for this was because Chen Daoxuan’s family birth policy was too abnormal.
Other than working, the male clansmen were always making babies. As a result, the family population had skyrocketed in recent years.
It far exceeded the requirement that Chen Daoxuan had set for Changping County Magistrate Chen Zhi to increase the population by ten times.
In the courtyard.
Chen Daoxuan threw away his distracting thoughts.
He focused on using the Rain of Threads sword intent he had comprehended to temper his dantian’s true qi.
The sword intent was ethereal, colorless and formless.
But it really existed.
This was what Zhou Mubai had recorded in the Sword Dao jade slip.
At this moment.
Chen Daoxuan finally understood the meaning of this sentence. He only felt that his true qi was transforming bit by bit under an inexplicable force.
The transformation was slow but stable.
He went into seclusion for three days.
Chen Daoxuan had finally refined all the Genuine Qi in his Dantian into a brand new type of Sword Qi.
That was what he called this new type of true energy.
After a simple test, he discovered that the quality of this new type of zhenqi was at least three times higher than that of ordinary zhenqi.
Although it was still not at the level where a foundation establishment cultivator’s true essence was more than ten times stronger than a qi refinement cultivator’s.
However, compared to ordinary Aura Refining cultivators, there was a fundamental difference.
Moreover, compared to a Foundation Building cultivator, his zhenqi was no longer so fragile.
At the very least, if he were to fight that female cultivator from the Yun Nation back then, Chen Daoxuan would be able to kill her with a single sword strike given the environment back then..
