After sending Tong Ming and Lei Jun away, Zhong Lin didn’t return to Fire Cloud Palace for alchemy but instead studied the Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique meticulously.
The Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique is a Dark Level Top Grade Swordsmanship. Mastering the Upper skill allows one to split light and shadow, confusing enemies. The Lower skill, Shadow Transformation Sword, allows all sword shadows to converge into one, unleashing triple the power.
“Although it can’t pare to the Sunset Sword Technique, its power is also extremely formidable. Moreover, the Sunset Swordsmanship can’t be easily deployed. If it fails to kill the enemy, it would only bring trouble upon oneself, and who knows which powerful old monster might e to seize it.”
The principle of ’a treasured possession invites trouble’ needs no further explanation. Whether it’s the Heavenly Level Martial Skill Sunset Sword Technique or the Earth Level Martial Arts Dragon Elephant Golden Body and Red Flame Technique, they are treasures to Zhong Lin, who is akin to a child in a bustling market.
It’s fine to keep them hidden, but if he dares to reveal even a bit, there would be only one oute—death.
Although his cultivation at the Spirit Sea Realm is decent, it’s nothing remarkable throughout the Luoxing Islands. Inplete statistics suggest there are at least eight hundred to a thousand cultivators at this level there. Above this are experts at the Spirit Embryo Realm and Yunling Realm; there’s even the Seven Stars Sect Master, a peak figure at the half-step Xuandan Realm.
If these people learn that Zhong Lin possesses not only a Heavenly Level Martial Skill but also two Earth Level Cultivation Techniques, he wouldn’t live to see another day.
Shaking his head to dismiss these thoughts, Zhong Lin focused entirely on the martial skill of Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique.
The full-level experience of the Sunset Sword Technique gave him insights into Swordsmanship far beyond others. In just an hour, he had already grasped the basics of the Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique.
“System.”
Host: Zhong Lin
Skills: Red Flame Technique (Full Level), Five Elements Mixed Essence Skill (Full Level), Dragon Elephant Golden Body (Full Level)…
Techniques: Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique (Beginner), Sunset Sword Technique (Full Level)…
Miscellaneous: Alchemy: Fifth Grade Elixir (Full Level)…
Skill Points: ∞
“System, allocate some points for me, let me see your limit.”
With Zhong Lin’s mand, the “∞” symbol on the skill points column shivered, and the “Beginner” level label after Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique turned into “Full Level,” with a mass of experience and memories related to the technique flooding his mind.
At this moment, Zhong Lin was no longer the low-ranked martial artist he once was. Even faced with this overwhelming memory influx, he merely furrowed his brow slightly and then sorted and absorbed it.
The next moment, an acute Sword Intent erupted from him, as if an unsheathed sword pierced the firmament, devouring heavenly stars.
The Heaven and Earth Essence Qi around Zhong Lin vibrated ceaselessly, echoing with the resonant sound of swords.
Shhhh!
Suddenly, sharp Sword Qi burst from around Zhong Lin. It shot out as if in the form of the antelope’s horn or spider silk, buzzing and cutting sword marks into the surrounding stone pillars and floor.
“This…”
At some unknown time, Chen Jia had already emerged from the Soul Nourishing Ring, staring dumbfounded at the scene before him.
“This is… Sword Qi Transformation?”
“How is this possible? To prehend Sword Intent itself is already astonishing, yet he has also prehended Sword Qi Transformation?”
“A genius, a true sword dao genius.”
“No, an absolute prodigy in the art of swordsmanship.”
Chen Jia’s soul body retreated from Zhong Lin, fearful of being harmed by the powerful Sword Intent emanating from him, his eyes wide with shock while observing Zhong Lin’s meditation closely for insight.
The prehension of Sword Intent is never achieved overnight but is like gathering earth into mountains and water into a pool, categorically divided from one percent to ten percent perfection.
Each two percent of prehension brings qualitative change, from the initial two percent prehension leading to “Sword Qi Transformation,” to four percent leading to “Sword Qi like a rainbow,” six percent leading to “Sword Qi Thunder Sound,” eight percent leading to “Sword Refining into Silk,” and perfection at ten percent leading to “Sword Light Division.”
At this moment, Zhong Lin’s Sword Qi seemed to take tangible form, swirling with a hum, manifesting phenomena that can only be achieved through two percent prehension.
As for other martial artists utilizing swords to manifest Sword Qi, Sword Radiance, Sword Gang, etc., it merely represents the use of Spiritual Origin. pared to a transcendent swordsman who prehends Sword Intent, it’s akin to the difference between coal and diamond.
At this moment, Chen Jia’s eyes were filled with jealousy, his expression contorting with envy, but soon he calmed down, standing quietly aside hoping to grasp any hint of enlightenment.
After a moment, Zhong Lin slowly opened his eyes, reached out with his right hand, and caught the Spiritual Artifact long sword from the Storage Bracelet.
“Sword Shadow Splitting Light.”
At this moment, Zhong Lin exuded an awe-inspiring aura, bursting out with a sharpness that seemed to tear the firmament apart, his Spiritual Sword blazing with intense golden light.
From afar, Chen Jia suddenly sensed from Zhong Lin an aura of indomitable courage, a belief that his sword could swallow the galaxy and triumph over all challenges.
This aura alone, bursting with vitality, could make countless people surrender in awe.
Swish!
Zhong Lin swung the long sword in his hand, and although it was but one strike, eight Sword Shadows appeared in the void, each unfurling a terrifying aura with them all indistinguishably real.
Suddenly, Zhong Lin shifted the sword momentum, and the eight Sword Shadows merged into one, the momentum swelling even more powerfully.
Boom!
A golden radiance surged out, transforming into a sword wheel like a blazing golden raven sun.
This sword wheel shone with dazzling hues, with multi-colored brilliance streaming.
The entire great hall of Fire Cloud Palace shivered under this sword wheel, creaking as if it might collapse into ruins the next moment.
Suddenly, Zhong Lin retracted the long sword in his hand, and the golden sword light disappeared abruptly, as if nothing had occurred moments ago.
Not far away, Chen Jia’s pupils shrunk, his heart filled with shock.
Effortless mastery, minute understanding of sword dao.
These eight words reverberated in Chen Jia’s mind.
“Retracting” is always harder than “attacking,” anyone can throw a punch, even a three-year-old child, but the challenge lies in retracting one’s force without causing self-harm.
Moments ago, Chen Jia was merely impressed by Zhong Lin’s extraordinary prehension, but now, seeing him effortlessly retract, truly revealed the terrifying depth of Zhong Lin’s understanding.
This demonstrated a minute grasp of the Spectrum Splitting Shadow Formation Sword Technique, yet Chen Jia knew Zhong Lin achieved it in less than an hour.
What a transcendent prodigy this is?
