Master Uncle Wu’s sword intent is ’No Self Sword Intent’, an ultimate combat sword intent, embodying the idea of having no self, only the enemy.
At this mont, Li Yuanba’s Supre Yang Sword Intent carried a trace of the aura of the No Self Sword Intent.
The Heavenly Thunder clashed with the Xingyi Sword, and the Heavenly Thunder was slashed into countless electric lights by the Xingyi Sword, which then scattered, enveloping both the Xingyi Sword and Li Yuanba behind it.
He stood in the void, surrounded by the electric lights, yet remained largely unaffected.
Although he hadn’t cultivated the ’Yuqing Thunder Scripture’, his understanding of Heavenly Thunder and Thunder Cultivation was completely identical to that of his original self Li Shiming.
The ’Sword Body’ had been elevated to the Nascent Soul Realm by him, and despite being at the initial entry of the Nascent Soul Realm, it was enough to resist the scattered lightning.
Of course, he appeared sowhat disheveled, with all his hair standing up, constantly waving with the electric lights.
But this did not affect his deanor of looking down upon everything with arrogance. Having experienced the true essence of sword cultivation through overcoming Heavenly Tribulation as Li Shiming, and having gained a deep understanding of the ’Sky-Surging Sword Intent Technique’ from Master Uncle Wu, he was truly a sword cultivator.
Even in the face of Heavenly Tribulation, he still chose to attack rather than defend, the typical response of a sword cultivator.
The first Heavenly Thunder dissipated, and its residual power vanished, as his hair slowly fell.
Within the thunderclouds, the second Heavenly Thunder was gathering, its power significantly increased, a recognition by the Heaven and Earth Rules of his strength.
Beside Master Uncle Wu, a flying sword appeared, prepared to divert the Heavenly Tribulation onto himself if necessary, to protect Li Yuanba.
He sensed the imnse potential in Li Yuanba, believing that if Li Yuanba grew, he might reach the Great Cultivator Realm or even attempt a higher realm.
He was just preparing for the worst. In his judgent, Li Yuanba might only suffer so injuries, but passing the Heavenly Tribulation wouldn’t be a problem.
The second Heavenly Thunder descended with a loud bang, as Li Yuanba felt its power, a defiant gleam flashed in his eyes.
What is the might of heaven and earth, when with a sword in hand, one can shatter the heavens and earth.
"Slash!" he shouted loudly, as one of his hands suddenly transford into a giant arm, controlling the Xingyi Sword to slash at the second Heavenly Thunder.
"Nascent Soul Dharma Form! This is the Nascent Soul Dharma Form!" Master Uncle Wu’s eyes widened in surprise, watching Li Yuanba’s strike.
Li Yuanba was using a partially transford Nascent Soul Dharma Form, turning his arm into the arm of the Nascent Soul Dharma Form.
With the Nascent Soul Dharma Form’s arm controlling the Xingyi Sword, the Nascent Soul Dharma Form could greatly amplify the power of the Xingyi Sword and the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’ within it.
Though the second Heavenly Thunder was much more powerful than the first, it was still scattered by the Xingyi Sword, and due to the excessive power of that slash, the strength of the lightning scattered by the Heavenly Thunder was further reduced.
Standing in the air, Li Yuanba’s hair did not even stand up this ti, and his gaze was even brighter.
The ability of the Xingyi Sword to slash through the Heavenly Thunder twice mainly relied on the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’.
Once the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’ reached the Nascent Soul Stage, it possessed the power to destroy everything, and the Heavenly Thunder’s destructive power had very little effect on the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’, whereas the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’ had a strong destructive effect on the Heavenly Thunder.
He felt the spiritual power within himself, and then made a bold move.
A small Nascent Soul erged from the top of his head, rapidly growing into a giant ten ters tall.
This was the complete Nascent Soul Dharma Form, but given Li Yuanba’s current state, summoning the Nascent Soul Dharma Form consud too much, and he could only sustain it for re seconds before exhausting his internal spiritual power.
This ti, the Nascent Soul Dharma Form held a Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation; originally a Third-Grade Sword Base, it advanced to Fourth-Grade as his ’Sword Body’ reached the Nascent Soul Realm.
The Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation could also be transford into energy; if Lifebound Flying Sword is the weapon of mainstream sword cultivators, then such a sword foundation is the weapon for close-combat sword cultivators.
Unfortunately, the lineage of close-combat sword cultivators is nearly extinct, and the remaining heritage is scarce and incomplete.
With a slight movent of the Nascent Soul Dharma Form’s consciousness, the Lifebound Flying Sword Xingyi descended upon the Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation, rging with it to form a new sword.
The Lifebound Flying Sword Xingyi and the Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation were both energy-based swords, and the actual operation proved that rging the two as he envisioned was indeed successful.
He could feel that the sword held in the hand of the Nascent Soul Dharma Form possessed all the attributes of the Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation and Xingyi Sword, and was even more powerful.
The Xingyi Sword as a Lifebound Flying Sword greatly enhanced sword intent, but due to its quality, it was rely a Third-Grade Flying Sword.
The Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation, being a weapon for close-combat sword cultivators, was sharper, and after rging, retained its Fourth-Grade quality but also increased the addition to sword intent.
The Nascent Soul Dharma Form lifted its head towards the sky, taking a step forward; ’A Step Away, A World Apart’ was activated, and the ten-ter giant disappeared from the original spot.
Reappearing within the thunderclouds.
"Break for !" he shouted loudly, the sword ford by the rger of the Xingyi Sword and the Fourth-Grade Sword Foundation heavily slashing down.
The thundercloud sensed provocation, and the third Heavenly Thunder was birthed within. However, Li Yuanba’s sword was faster by a mont.
With the execution of this slash, the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’ transford into a massive light sword which, under such a powerful strike, slashed the entire thundercloud in half.
The overwhelming heat contained within the ’Supre Yang Sword Intent’ not only sliced the thundercloud apart but also instantly vaporized the moisture within, causing the third Heavenly Thunder’s release to possess less than a tenth of the power of the first.
This small Heavenly Thunder struck the Nascent Soul Dharma Form, unable to breach its defense.
Withstand this Heavenly Thunder, and the Nascent Soul Dharma Form deflated like a balloon; this was due to excessive spiritual power consumption, rendering Li Yuanba unable to maintain the Nascent Soul Dharma Form.
"Hahaha!" As the Nascent Soul Dharma Form dissipated, Li Yuanba’s body was revealed, and the Nascent Soul returned to his body, as he stood in the void, laughing loudly.
His face was pale; executing the Nascent Soul Dharma Form was indeed too taxing for his realm.
But it was all worth it; with a battle stance, he had overco the Thunder Tribulation for advancing to Nascent Soul, surpassing his ntor Jian Wuwei.
Back then, Jian Wuwei also challenged the Heavenly Tribulation in a combat style, but after three Heavenly Thunders, Jian Wuwei’s body incurred severe injuries.
Li Yuanba now, aside from excessive spiritual power consumption, was entirely unscathed.
While the thunderclouds were unwilling, they slowly dissipated.
Within his body, a peculiar energy rose from the void, circulating through his body and Nascent Soul.
Wherever it passed, the ntal energy and vitality he expended during the tribulation quickly recovered and even increased; he felt his life force being restored and enhanced swiftly, and he sensed that his body and Nascent Soul had truly ascended to the Nascent Soul Realm.
After a brief mont, the peculiar energy vanished from him, his complexion grew rosy, and both his body and Nascent Soul had truly entered the Nascent Soul Realm.
His spirit transford into a divine sense, and with a slight thought, the Lifebound Flying Sword Xingyi entered the body of the Nascent Soul, rging with the Cultivation Technique Rune Short Sword.
Unfortunately, at present, the Xingyi Sword is only Third Grade, and it will take him a long period in seclusion to complete the process of advancing it to Fourth Grade.
Apart from that, unless he enters closed-door cultivation for an extended period, he won’t maintain any combat strength beyond a blow with the Nascent Soul Dharma Form.
"Thank you, Master Uncle Wu, for being my protector!" Li Yuanba said, thanking Master Uncle Wu.
"Haha, my Sword Intent Chongxiao Pavilion has gained another Nascent Soul Sword Cultivator," Master Uncle Wu said with a smile, helping him up. "Later, you’ll imprint your information into the ’Sword Intent Chongxiao Scroll’."
