In the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, Su Changkong sat quietly cross-legged. Before him on the stone platform, the ’black-clothed blade man’, a manifestation of his Blade Intent, was currently facing a besiegement by as many as six Martial Arts Intent Realm experts.

Some were proficient with blades and swords while others were skilled in fist and foot techniques, and among them, one had reached the Little Accomplished Intent Realm.

“Ssst ssst ssst!”

The black-clothed blade man’s long blade moved back and forth, slashing with each motion, each one becoming more and more a Return to the original and Transcendental.

“Pfft!”

The Martial Artist who had reached the Little Accomplished Intent Realm, wielding a pair of short swords, thrust directly at the black-clothed blade man’s chest. But the black-clothed blade man’s longer blade moved even faster, responding with a Chopping action that cut him in half at the waist!

It didn’t take long before all the Martial Arts Intent manifestations besieging the black-clothed blade man were defeated by Su Changkong, who was not without injuries himself. The black-clothed blade man, a manifestation of his Blade Intent, had his chest and abdomen sliced open with deep wounds to the bone.

These directly reflected in Su Changkong’s Sea of Consciousness, causing him such pain that his body convulsed. His Blade Intent was damaged, an injury on the level of consciousness and spirit.

Su Changkong was already accustomed to this. A light barrier rose around the stone platform as he began to assimilate today’s gains to perfect his Blade Technique, while within his Sea of Consciousness, Five Qi surged, winding around and repairing his damaged Blade Intent.

Iron Cutting Blade Technique (10th Realm, Shock the World and Horrify the Public 57%)

Blade Nurturing Art (9th Realm, Unparalleled in the World 5%)

It was already one month since Su Changkong started his training in the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, and his progress during this time could be described as swift.

His Blade Technique was advancing towards the pinnacle, and his Blade Nurturing Art had made a leap into the 9th Realm!

“For my Blade Technique to reach this realm, it’s actually very difficult to have a qualitative change in terms of technique. It’s more about the spirit level aspects, like momentum, Blade Intent… This is the direction to progress.”

Su Changkong also had a realization in his heart – the essence of practicing Blade Technique was to sharpen Blade Intent to make it stronger!

Gathering his focus, Su Changkong assimilated the gains of the day. Using his 9th Realm Blade Nurturing Art to nourish the Blade Intent, his damaged Blade Intent rapidly recovered to its peak and even surpassed its former state.

And as he trained over this period, Su Changkong often entered a marvelous state where he seemed to see his very essence and soul undergoing some kind of slow yet steady metamorphosis.

Su Changkong believed he had the ability to take his Blade Technique to another level!

“Come on!”

A new day dawned, the light barrier around the stone platform dissipated, and a fresh round of tempering began. From within those crystal stones, numerous strong Martial Arts Intentions condensed, launching an attack on Su Changkong. His Essence Qi Spirit had recovered to its peak, his Blade Intent released, summoning the black-clothed blade man who once again engaged in battle.

In the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, there were thousands of Martial Arts Intentions left by Five-Qi Grandmasters, each proficient in different aspects. Even among those skilled with the same weapon or martial arts skill, their Martial Arts Intents had unique characteristics.

The same went for Blade Technique, some inclined towards quick and fierce moves, while others were about heavy and solid attacks!

What Su Changkong had to do was to experience these Martial Arts Intents, absorb their advantages to make up for his own shortcomings, and to level all his weaknesses, until his Blade Technique was without any flaws or weaknesses, perfect and impeccable!

Battle after battle, every day Su Changkong experienced intense warfare in the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb. If it were anyone else, their Blade Intent would have failed to keep up with the consumption long ago, depleted from the continuous battles to the point of their Sea of Consciousness being damaged, with no choice but to give up.

Or defeated under the relentless besiegement of massive waves of Martial Arts Intents.

But Su Changkong’s progress was too fast! So fast that with every increase in the intensity of the attacks, his improvements were enough to deal with the next wave!

His Blade Nurturing Art could nurture the blade with its own Five Qi, ensuring that his Blade Intent always remained at its peak, not giving up due to excessive wear and tear.

“Two months now… Can that young man still hold on? Has his Blade Intent reached Great Achievement?”

The white-haired elder outside the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb couldn’t help but be moved. How had Su Changkong managed to endure all this time?

The fact that he had been able to hold on till now meant at least that his Blade Intent had reached Great Achievement!

When Su Changkong first entered the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, his Blade Intent had barely formed. What a terrifying progress this was?

The white-haired elder’s expression grew serious – this young man known as Dao Wufeng was perhaps far from as simple as he seemed!

Inside the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb, Su Changkong saw a tall humanoid crystal from which Martial Arts Intent wafted out, manifesting a man in blue clothing wielding a long blade. The Blade Qi swirling around the blue-clothed man twisted the space itself.

“This is Great Achievement Blade Intent!”

Su Changkong felt grave, but more than that, he felt excitement. In two months’ time, a Great Achievement level Martial Arts Intent had finally appeared in the Ten Thousand Soul Warrior Tomb!

“Kill!”

Su Changkong’s Blade Intent consolidated into the black-clothed blade man, engaging in a fierce fight with the blue-clothed man.

Su Changkong’s Iron-Cutting Blade Technique returned to the original, seemingly simple in every move, but capable of producing countless variations at any time.

The blue-clothed man’s Blade Technique, on the other hand, was like thunderbolt-lightning, turning into mere light and shadow, incredibly fast beyond imagination, accompanied by crackling thunder, filled with a destructive Intent.

“Clang clang clang!”

Brilliant sparks and the ringing sounds of clashing blades continuously burst in the air, the two appearing evenly matched, neck and neck.

“The Thunderbolt Blade Technique, each stroke like thunder, shattering mountains and rivers, one blade stronger than the next.”
