Chapter 106 - 106 105 All Swords Chime at Once

106: Chapter 105: All Swords Chime at Once 106: Chapter 105: All Swords Chime at Once The ice blue sword, pointed towards Lin Xuan, emitted unpredictable cold light. Lin Xuan lightly exerted his strength, and on his sword finger, a golden Thunder Sword materialized, with golden arcs of electricity thrumming with terrifying power. “At the Eighth Rank of Mystical Realm you have already managed to reach this step of transformation, you are the first, indeed you are worth my effort!” the white-robed youth, Yin Shaoli, said in a cold voice as he thrust his ice sword directly. With one thrust, blue frost rapidly spread from his feet in all directions, covering the entire second floor with blue ice crystals clear as glass. All the martial artists around channeled their Spiritual Power to resist this chilling force. As their gaze fell upon the Ice Blade, they instinctively screamed out. For they did not see a sword, but rather an ice field, ancient glaciers, and the Ice Cold Long Sword had transformed into an illuminated ice dragon, roaring and clawing with astonishing momentum! Lin Xuan, too, was engulfed in this illusion, but he was clearer than the others — this was not an illusion technique, but rather Sword Force, the force of the Ice Blade! If the white-robed youth had used his cultivation advantage, Lin Xuan really would have had difficulty meeting that sword, but now he had decided to compare Sword Forces with Lin Xuan, which was undoubtedly asking for trouble. Lin Xuan swung his longsword, his aura undergoing a sudden transformation, as if a Supreme Divine Sword had awakened, that sharp aura causing hearts to tremble. Golden light flowed through the air, the sharp sword light stabbing into this icy world. Instantly, glaciers collapsed, the earth split open, as if the end of the world had come, everything shattering. The white-robed youth frowned, sensing a powerful destructive force, one that even made the ice sword in his hand tremble. “How could this be?” Yin Shaoli’s spirit trembled, but the situation left no time for thought, for the icy world was about to shatter! Brilliant blue Spiritual Power surged out, the powerful aura characteristic of the Spirit Sea Realm swirling through the space. Supported by this power, the icy world rapidly regained its original form and became extraordinarily stable. The Ice Frost Sword Dragon roared ferociously as it rushed forward, appearing to be about to devour Lin Xuan. “Is this the power of the Spirit Sea Realm?” Lin Xuan thought excitedly. Under the effect of his Soul Power, his eyes emitted an orange glow and Yin Shaoli’s every movement, his aura, even the Spiritual Power inside his body, were all distinctly visible to Lin Xuan. If one were to compare the Spiritual Power inside a Mystical Realm martial artist to a river, then the Spiritual Power of a Spirit Sea Realm martial artist would be an ocean, no matter how turbulent the river, it could never match the sea. Nine Veins converging, gathering spirit into an ocean! A flicker passed through Lin Xuan’s eyes; he had already seen his path ahead, believing that before long, he too would enter this realm. Facing the silver ice dragon, sword-shaped light flashed in Lin Xuan’s eyes, his aura once again escalating like a thundercloud above the Nine Heavens, accumulating countless times over and releasing in an instant. Terrifying Sword Intent swept all directions, instantly engulfing the silver ice dragon, then, the entire icy world was also torn apart by this terrifying Sword Intent. At this moment, the Weapons of the surrounding martial artists all emitted trembling sounds, buzzing loudly. Among them, the longswords could hardly resist flying out of their scabbards. “What is happening?” Many martial artists forcibly held down their treasure swords, eyes filled with immense fright. For the first time, Yin Shaoli showed an expression of shock. The ice sword in his hand had shattered, and the blue treasure sword at his waist also emitted a cry of a slash, as if afraid, yet somewhat excited. Lin Xuan’s black hair fluttered, his clothing billowing, the terrifying Sword Intent emanating from within him. Not just the second floor, but all martial artists in the entire Four Seas Restaurant felt this astonishing aura. “All swords resonating, this is Sword Intent!” Yin Shaoli was shocked, and the disciples of the Wenxue Sect behind him were even more surprised as they looked at Lin Xuan. “Sword Intent, it really is Sword Intent! Could he be the disciple from the Xuantian Sect?” Everyone’s gaze towards Lin Xuan changed, various emotions vividly displayed. Sword Intent, a wondrous state every Swordsman aspires to achieve, once existed only in legends but now truly appeared before everyone’s eyes. The fierce aura vanished, returning entirely to Lin Xuan’s body as if it had never appeared. Lin Xuan sighed in his heart. Just now, under the stimulus of Yin Shaoli, his Half-step Sword Intent had surged unprecedentedly, as if it could break through at any moment and advance into true Sword Intent. However, at this critical moment, Yin Shaoli had been defeated and retreated. Despite this, his Sword Intent had still advanced one step closer to true Sword Intent. “No, this is Half-step Sword Intent, still lacking compared to true Sword Intent,” Yin Shaoli said solemnly. “I have seen true Sword Intent once before; just one gaze was enough to cut through everything!” Lin Xuan was surprised; it couldn’t be a disciple from a Two-star Sect; their experiences are extraordinary. “I am Yin Shaoli; may I ask how to address you, brother?” “Lin Xuan!” “Lin Xuan…” Yin Shaoli muttered, “I’ll remember you. On the Hidden Dragon List someday, we shall have our battle!” After saying this, Yin Shaoli left with the disciples from the Wenxue Sect. He didn’t rush into action; with Lin Xuan’s talents, it wouldn’t be long before he entered the Hidden Dragon List. By then, Lin Xuan would be worthy for him to draw his sword. After Yin Shaoli left, Martial Artists on the second floor began to cozy up to Lin Xuan, many of whom asked about how to cultivate Sword Intent. Lin Xuan could only smile bitterly and answer each of them. Finally, Lin Xuan fled from the Four Seas Restaurant as if running away; those people were too enthusiastic. “Sister Hu, Brother Feng, it has been a pleasure meeting both of you; we shall meet again another day!” Lin Xuan bid farewell to Hu Man as he had to return to his sect from Beiwei City. After parting from the two, Lin Xuan didn’t leave the city directly. Instead, he made a detour to the General Mansion because something had suddenly occurred to him. Inside the simple and elegant hall, General Zeng heartily slapped Lin Xuan’s shoulder. “Young Hero Lin, I heard you’ve grasped the Sword Intent, congratulations!” Lin Xuan gave a wry smile, surprised that the news had spread so quickly. “General Zeng, I have come to report something,” Lin Xuan said, flipping his hand to reveal a black Token. This token had the character ‘Nether’ engraved on the front and a fiercely clawed Black Dragon on the back, emanating a faint Evil Qi. “This was obtained when I killed a Black Robed Man.” General Zeng took the token, and his expression changed drastically when he saw the design. “Netherworld Hall!” “No wonder the Demon Clan attacked Xia Country; it turns out Netherworld Hall was behind the mischief,” General Zeng said with a grim face, appearing quite fearful of this so-called Netherworld Hall. “Young Hero Lin, you’ve reported something significant. If it hadn’t been for you, we might still be oblivious.” “I must report this immediately!” “Is it that serious?” Lin Xuan wondered; he had not heard of the Netherworld Hall before. “More than serious, if it’s truly Netherworld Hall, it’s probably not as simple as a Demon invasion!” General Zeng said gravely. “This matter is too deeply connected; we need to investigate thoroughly.” “Young Hero Lin, please excuse me; I have to attend to this matter immediately,” General Zeng hurried off. “Lord of Wine, do you know what is happening?” Lin Xuan sent a message. “After meeting you, I just woke up; how would I know these things?” the Lord of Wine shook his head. “Don’t worry, if the sky falls, there will be tall ones to hold it up; you should continue to diligently enhance your cultivation.”
