Chapter 66: The Essence of Sword Intent
were mesmerized."Phoenix Arrives on the Sword" Su Xin's eyes narrowed slightly. "Unfortunately, it's only the first style."Here it is!A clang of metal echoed as Su Yuning's sword flew from her grasp,...Inside the Trial Tower, Su Xin and Jiuxin Daozhu stood there.
“You have extraordinary swordsmanship talent, but you haven't received any guidance before. You don't even know the essence of sword intent. So the first thing you need to do is go to the Treasure Pavilion and exchange for 'The Essence of Sword Intent'. Of course, just exchange for the upper part. As for the middle and lower parts, wait until your fire points are sufficiently abundant before exchanging them from the Nine Stars Dao Master.”
"What is the essence of sword intent" Su Xin secretly memorized.
After understanding the essence of sword intent and knowing how to comprehend it, I suggest you spend 5,000 fire points to visit the Nine Stars Daoist Master in the Starry Hall.
"Starlight Hall" Su Xin's heart moved.
"The Starry Sky Hall is very helpful for you to comprehend sword intent, especially the first time you enter. The help is greatest then. For ordinary Tianyan Palace disciples, after entering the Starry Sky Hall for the first time and comprehending it, their understanding of the realm will increase significantly. And your talent is so high, the improvement will definitely be even greater."
However, the way of enlightenment within the Starry Palace is quite unique. Though it can be very helpful to you, you mustn't rely on it too much. If you become overly dependent... your cultivation speed will be very fast in the short term, but in the future, it will become an obstacle to your progress.
So, I suggest that even if you have enough fire points, you should enter again at least every three months.
Su Xin listened carefully.
Jiuchendaozhu said that one should not rely too much on the Xingchen Hall, and he would naturally remember it well.
"After you have contemplated once at the Starry Temple, you can come to this trial tower," said the Lord of Nine Stars.
"Master Dao, what is the use of this trial tower for us" Su Xin asked.
“This is extremely useful,” the Dao Lord of Jiuxin chuckled. “After you pay the Fire Points and enter the Trial Tower, you can control a separate trial space within it. In this trial space, you can set up your desired opponents according to your requirements.”
"Setting it yourself" Su Xinyi was taken aback.
"Yes, just like your sword intent comprehension has now reached the first level, and you are cultivating the Bei Cang Sword Art. Then you can set up an opponent in the trial space who is completely identical to you regardless of their cultivation level, realm comprehension, or even swordsmanship, and perhaps even slightly stronger than you. You can use this sparring match to hone your skills."
If you feel one opponent is not enough, you can set up several more, said the Nine Star Dao Lord.
But Su Xin, upon hearing this, couldn't help but be shocked.
Set your desired opponents according to your preferences.
This is simply unbelievable!
To know, a martial artist needs to constantly battle with all sorts of strong opponents to improve their skills, but where can these strong opponents be found
Like this hunt, many geniuses from various counties have gathered. Within their own counties, they already stand at the top of their respective tiers. In their daily lives, it's incredibly difficult to find an opponent who can match them evenly. They only encounter many such opponents during this hunt.
This Trial Tower... you can completely set up your opponents yourself, fighting them continuously. And since it's self-set, you can choose what aspect each opponent excels in, be it one or two opponents.
"This trial tower, it's too perverse! Su Xin's eyes were filled with intense surprise."
“Perverted Actually, it's not that bad. The Nine Star Dao Master just smiled faintly at Su Xin, “The Trial Tower in the Heavenly Flame Palace is only the lowest level. Not only the Heavenly Flame Dynasty, but most dynasties in this Eastern Wasteland, including many sects and forces, have this level of trial tower.”
This low-level trial tower is actually incomplete. For example, the opponents you can set up have a maximum comprehension of only the second level in terms of atmosphere and feeling, and their skills are limited to some common martial arts. Moreover, the opponents you set up don't have any thoughts, they are essentially just puppets.
But if it were a high-level Trial Tower, capable of setting opponents of almost any level and allowing the use of any martial arts or secret techniques found within the Eastern Desolate Lands, even granting them their own thoughts and making them fight you like normal people, then that would be a true all-encompassing
After a pause, Lord Jiuchen continued, "Of course, with your current strength, this level of trial tower is already sufficient for you."
"This trial tower, using one day only requires twenty fire points. You can pay for a month or two months at a time, and then you can stay in this trial tower for a long time to cultivate, even live here."
Su Xinzhong stressed the importance of the matter.
Twenty fires a day, a month would only be six hundred points, Su Xin could completely stay in the Trial Tower for a long time.
Besides what I just said, I also suggest you go to the Precious Pavilion and select another sword technique. The Nine Stars Dao Master suddenly said.
"Choosing swordsmanship" Su Xin was startled.
“Just now I saw you wielding the Bei Cang Sword Technique. As the recognized number one sword technique of the Tian Yan Imperial Dynasty, the Bei Cang Sword Technique is very powerful and comprehensive. Whether it's attacking, defending, or relying on speed to deliver a killing blow, it's very impressive. However, this sword technique continuously improves as your understanding of sword intent deepens.”
"In other words, this is a sword technique with enormous potential and the ability to continuously grow. However, it's not the type of swordsmanship that will allow you to perfectly display your current skills at their peak!"
You can completely go and choose another sword technique to cultivate, making your swordsmanship more comprehensive. At the current stage, you can also erupt with stronger combat power.
Su Xin listened and nodded secretly.
Yes, my Bei Cang sword technique is quite comprehensive. It has the attack of Lei Huo Scroll, the defense of Shan Hai Scroll, and the ultimate kill move of Xu Ying Scroll.
These three scrolls of swordsmanship require an extremely high level of understanding of sword intent. The secrets and killing techniques contained within, such as the third layer of the Thunder Fire Scroll's ultimate secret technique, or the fourth and fifth styles of the Phantom Shadow Scroll, are currently beyond Su Xin's ability to perform.
It's fine if you encounter ordinary opponents, but if you face a formidable opponent like the Daoist Master of Nine Stars, whose comprehension of swordsmanship surpasses yours, then this technique falls short in its comprehensiveness.
"In the Treasure Pavilion Sword Techniques, there is a sword technique called Flying Blood. You can go and take a look," the Nine Stars Dao Master smiled.
"Swordsmanship
Flying Blood" Su Xin nodded slightly.
"Well, the advice I can give you for now is just that. Continue to cultivate diligently on your own. Come back and listen to more lessons whenever you have time. And if you encounter anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me, Jiuxin Daomaster, at any time."
"Thank you, Master Su Xinzhe. I am so grateful and deeply appreciative."
Jiuchendaozhu waved his hand indifferently.
He called Su Xin here alone to give him some advice and guidance, firstly because of his friend Geralt, but more importantly because Su Xin himself was indeed a rare swordsmanship prodigy.
The master of Jiuxing left soon.
While Su Xin went straight to the Treasure Pavilion. Following Master Jiuxin's advice, he found "The Essence of Swordsmanship Explained" and "Flying Blood" sword techniques. expert who has achieved the peak of cultivation, the perfect state of 'Hǎi Huàn'. Even though he didn't rely on his strength but purely competed in skill, his marksmanship was incredibly impressive....
