“Tian Sha, good name, why don’t you show me your sword technique?” Qian Fenghua gave a big praise, and his whole person seemed to have a lot of spirit.
With such a senior to guide him, how could Di Jiu be polite, Tian Sha transformed into a green with an aura that would tear space apart and slashed out.
At this moment, all obstacles in the way of his blade would be cut into nothingness by this blade.
Di Jiu’s first strike was the Wind Xiao Blade, the Wind Xiao Blade was a blade that he had perceived himself.
“Boom!” This slash made a greenish scar at the bottom of the Sheyan Heavenly Ruins, the momentum of the slash stopped, and the slash still remained in the void for a long time before it dissipated.
Di Jiu withdrew his blade and was very satisfied with his slash, not waiting for the green slash marks in the void to dissipate, Di Jiu clasped his fist and said, “Please give me guidance, senior.”
Qian Fenghua sighed, “Good blade intent, good blade intent ah ……”
After saying these seven words he shook his head and sighed again, “It’s a pity that it’s empty of scattered blade intent and has no real momentum, and if it continues like this, it’s hard to gather your own blade momentum. Scattered blade intent is only like fireworks, just look at it.”
Di Jiu was shocked in his heart, the Wind Xiao Blade, Cracked Blade and Sky Curtain Blade were the three blades that he was most proud of, now he had not yet executed the latter two blades, but the Wind Xiao Blade could just as easily represent his highest level of comprehension of the Dao of the Blade. His comprehension of blade intent was strong, so how could he be described as scattered?
It was true that Qian Fenghua’s strength was countless times higher than his, but high strength was one thing, to describe his kind of sabre intent as scattered and a firework that only looked good was too demeaning.
Di Jiu was somewhat less than convinced and said, “Senior please look at my Cracking Blade and Heavenly Curtain Blade ……”
Said I, the Heavenly Sha in Di Jiu’s hand once again rolled out, turning into continuous green waves and blasting out. Wave after wave, one higher than the other, finally hitting the void and splashing out countless waves of blade intent. The sword intent exploded with these waves, and the entire space was filled with a sword aura.
Before the Cracking Blade could calm down, Di Jiu’s Heavenly Curtain Blade fell down. A curtain of sabres that fell from the void was like a waterfall, the kind that swept out with a slight aura of rules, and space made an explosive sound. It gave the impression that anything that was under such a curtain of swords would be torn into pieces.
“What does senior think?” After the two slashes, Di Jiu asked once again.
Qian Fenghua looked at Di Jiu in a daze for a long time before saying, “You are the most talented saber player I have ever seen, even the most comprehensible and qualified Dao practitioner. To actually touch a hint of the rules at the Yuan Soul realm, this is simply appalling.”
Di Jiu was still somewhat smug in his heart, but he was also clear that he could touch a hint of the rules not because he was really much smarter than other people, nor was he really that powerful, but because he possessed that grey stone, and that one golden lightning bolt. That one golden lightning bolt was born to be the source of billions of rules.
Qian Fenghua let out another long sigh, ”It is certain that you can fight across levels and even defeat the average Void God realm. This is in addition to your condensed divine thought and condensed true essence, these few slashes of yours are also important factors. It’s a pity ……”
This was the second time Qian Fenghua said pity, and Di Jiu also felt that something was not right. What kind of person was Qian Fenghua, that was a strong person who split a cultivation planet with one move, this kind of strong person should not be wrong to say that his blade dao had flaws.
“Please also ask senior to please enlighten me.” Di Jiu hurriedly bowed and asked for advice.
Qian Fenghua’s eyes were grave as he said, “If I’m not wrong, you shouldn’t have a master to teach you, right? You have cultivated out the sword intent and also sensed the sword intent, do you know what is the sword intent? You want to rely on your own qi to condense your sword momentum when you strike your sword, so let me ask you, do you know what sword momentum is? In other words, if your true essence is not that condensed and your divine thought is not that powerful, your kind of blade intent is as ridiculous as a child learning to speak in the eyes of others. Your kind of blade intent can only teach some of the bottom tier cultivators in the Ruined Continent a lesson, and after you step out of this Ruined Continent, you will find that you are far, far worse than the true geniuses.”
Di Jiu’s face turned pale, he knew his own business, he had his true essence and divine intent which had coalesced because he had a starry sky vein from cultivating the Star River Skill. According to Qian Fenghua, if he didn’t cultivate the Star River Skill, wouldn’t he be the same as an ordinary cultivator?
Sensing Di Jiu’s change of heart, Qian Fenghua said, “You should not be presumptuous either, my words are a little heavy, but without condensed true essence and powerful divine thoughts, your blade intent is indeed nothing. Although it can also cross the level against an enemy, at most it can only be at the fourth level of the Yuan Soul against the seventh level of the Yuan Soul, and it will definitely not go beyond the five planets around Sheyan. Now you start by talking about Blade Intent and Blade Power.”
Di Jiu said seriously, “In my junior’s opinion, blade intent is a kind of intent control after the blade has been struck, allowing one’s blade to merge with the surroundings and turn into nature. A blade momentum is the control of space under the blade intent and one’s true essence.”
Qian Fenghua nodded, “The understanding of blade intent is profound, but I have to tell you that your blade intent is at most an introduction. If you don’t understand the deeper levels of the blade intent, as your cultivation level increases, it will be difficult for your blade intent to go any further. When you leave here one day, you will find that you are only limited in how much stronger than others, and not a true star powerhouse.
The realm of intent, as I understand it, is divided into initiation, minor accomplishment, major accomplishment, perfection, and gathering power. Your blade intent is scattered, and is at best at the initiation level. The reason for this is not in you, but in the fact that you have no master to teach you, nor do you have a truly systematic sword technique, everything is up to you to figure out. No matter how talented you are, you will not be able to sum up once again the essence that countless people have groped for countless years.”
“My disciple has been taught.” After listening to Qian Fenghua’s words, Di Jiu felt that his eyes were generally enlightened. He was very messy in learning things, finding good spell techniques and then cultivating and sensing them. When he felt an intention, he immediately incorporated it into his own dao of the sword. He had no idea what level of cultivation was almost done, nor did he know what gradual progress was. The instruction given to him by Qian Fenghua was already equivalent to a master instructing his disciple, and Di Jiu’s respect for Qian Fenghua was from the bottom of his heart.
Qian Fenghua said again, “I don’t cultivate the Dao of the Sword, and I don’t have any sword techniques to give you, but all intents in the universe are similar, whether it’s your sword intent or gun intent or sword intent or even the five elemental intents and so on.”
“Senior, isn’t it true that space and time also have this kind of intent?” Di Jiu hurriedly asked, all along he just didn’t have a master to guide him.
In fact the things he was asking about, even if he found a top powerhouse as a master in the Extreme Night Continent, he wouldn’t be able to give him pointers.
Qian Fenghua shook his head, “I just heard a senior say that space and time are extensions on the realm of intent, after you have comprehended the true blade intent, I will come back and talk to you about the so-called time and space intent. For now, you will study here by yourself for a month, and after a month you will perform the few slashes you just did for me to see, and I will point out some of your shortcomings.”
“Yes.” Di Jiu didn’t dare to hesitate for a moment as he found an empty place to sit down and his divine thoughts landed inside the Heavenly Blade Sect’s Hidden Scripture Pavilion.
Qian Fenghua was unable to instruct him on the Dao of the Blade, so he had to search for the Dao of the Blade in the Heavenly Blade Sect’s Hidden Scripture Pavilion.
A few days later, Di Jiu did find the description of the Intent Realm in the Hidden Scriptures. However, in these hidden scriptures, the highest level of the realm of intent was perfection, and there was no gathering of power as Qian Fenghua said.
At the same time, Di Jiu also looked at numerous blade techniques and means of blade dao cultivation. After looking at the numerous means of blade dao, Di Jiu began to be a little embarra*sed about his six blades.
His Di’s First Blade and Di’s Second Blade were at best only a way of using true essence, and could not be called a blade technique at all, let alone a blade skill.
The Third Whirlwind Slash was considered a slash technique, however his Whirlwind Slash was clearly imperfect, and he had only performed it in a superficial manner.
Just as Qian Fenghua said, he did have an introductory blade intent, but it was not systematic, but rather messy, and it was sometimes strong and sometimes weak when he fought against his enemies.
Qian Fenghua watched as Di Jiu continued to try out various blade techniques. The green of the Tian Sha Blade went from being scattered and untidy to slowly coming together, and at the end of the day, Di Jiu’s green had formed a green line, clearly in order, which could only be achieved after having some control over the blade intent. In his heart, he also sighed, this old brother Di Jiu really has no master to teach him, he doesn’t even know the most basic things. I believe that after today, his path would be incomparably spacious.
A month later, Di Jiu stopped continuing to wield his sword, he closed his eyes after collecting his sword to collate his gains from this month.
The previous six blades were streamlined into three, the first blade was the Wind Xiao Blade, the second was the Cracking Blade and the third was the Heavenly Curtain Blade.
The first four daggers were fused into a single dagger, the Wind Xiao Dagger. The Wind Xiao Blade was no longer a single blade technique, but became a group killing tool. The slashes were still unrelenting, and after being swept into the enemy group the unrelenting slash intent formed swirling slash qi that wreaked havoc, taking on an aura of destruction.
The second Cleave Blade and the third Heavenly Curtain Blade remained unchanged, the blade intent of these two blades was scattered before, but after Di Jiu regained his understanding, the blade intent of these two blades coalesced. After the blade intent had coalesced and was no longer scattered, Di Jiu knew that both his combat power and his potential in the Dao of the Blade had increased a lot. Combat power was nothing more than that, but the key was the increased potential, which gave him a clear direction to move forward.
Listening to someone’s words was better than reading a book for ten years, and that was what he was saying now. If Qian Fenghua did not instruct him, he would need to have suffered great losses before he would settle down to study his own blade dao, and only then would these things be slowly summed up.
“Senior, please see junior’s three swords.” After Di Jiu saluted Qian Fenghua, he once again executed his Wind Xiao Blade, Cracked Blade and Sky Curtain Blade.
This time, when the three daggers were executed, the sword intent coalesced was no longer the scattered and uncontrollable as before, vaguely forming a sword momentum, green and everywhere, as if a substantial sword mane cut through space.
