⟦Congratulations, you are now a Sword Saint⟧
⟦Your sword intent and sword Qi have been upgraded to Level 4⟧
⟦Your understanding of the sword will now be boosted by 3 tis the normal speed⟧
"As expected, the rewards are worth the struggle." Kent smiled.
He had been through a lot, and finally, he managed to rise to the level he is at. Of course, the journey was rewarding, and he knew that, too. But finally becoming a Sword Saint felt good.
Though his understanding is almost on the level of a Sword King, he knew that when it cos to the path he is walking, which is the genesis path, there is nothing like limited understanding.
He is always learning, and that alone is a clear indication of the path he has set for himself. He walked it before, and now, he plans to improve on it even more.
"I didn’t awaken any new aspect, but with this breakthrough, my already awakened aspects have improved, and that alone is good enough.
My sword gaze has improved trendously, and with my sword body already rged with 16 split bodies, my combat power will beco much more powerful.
The only thing left now is to train my mind so I can use the Clone Bodies more actively."
Kent turns to the requirent he must fulfill before becoming a Sword Sage.
⟦Requirents to beco a Sword Sage⟧
↠ Gain all 11 enlightennts and attain Heavenly Sword Intent/Aura.
↠ Defeat Sword King Maklin in a sword duel.
↠ Kill the Wandering Demon Swordsman and present his head to the Olive Sword Guild.
↠ Absorb the Jade Token and use the energy to refine your sword gaze.
↠ Comprehend the Grand Sword Aura Tablet.
Kent looked at the requirents and sighed.
He was already on the track of gaining all 11 enlightennts. Of course, according to the tower, seeing and talking to the sword Dao is worth more than any enlightennt.
But Kent knew that was plain exaggeration.
If he wanted to make it big, then he must gain all 11 enlightennts. He had already attained four, and thanks to the opportunities that will be opening for him soon, he might gain so more.
However, the process demands more from him, and Kent isn’t sure if he can handle all that while also managing other things.
He still needs to pay attention to other things like his Alchemy, Dragon side, and many more. So, focusing on the sword alone, this demand made her panic a little.
"Then again, I have the sword World, so things aren’t too complex yet. As for the second requirent, I am sure I will ask around when I get back to the sect."
Kent didn’t want to jinx it, but he hoped his second requirent could be found in the sect. The Pill Princess was almost in his reach, so he wanted this one to go smoothly, too.
However, Kent also knew he could only hope for now.
"As for the third through to the fifth, I will have to ask Old Sword about it. Sothing tells none of the last three requirents will be a walk in the park."
Kent stood up and stretched his arms.
"The next phase of my path will be a wild one, and I can only hope the outco will be worth it. I must at least beco a Sword Sage before ascending."
Kent walked away from the sword bridge and appeared in the body tower.
He ignored the bridge and went straight to the tempering room, where he imdiately took out a couple of herbs and prepared a herb bath.
"It will take 2 days, that is 48 hours inside here, to finish tempering my body. That will be the perfect ti for to return to the sect and try the Perfect Chamber."
Kent climbed in and closed his eyes as the tempering process began.

[Supre Immortal Sect - Core Region - Lady Liora’s POV - 2 Days Later]
The past weeks for Lady Liora had been all about trying to understand Kent.
For so reason, from the day she saw him, she couldn’t get him out of her head. It was as if Kent had beco part of her every thought, and that alone was driving her crazy.
At first, she tried to forget all about him, but she couldn’t, so she started trying her best to co to terms with what was wrong with her.
It took her so ti, but after hearing of Kent’s altercation with Xhan, she understood why.
Two decades ago, when she heard about the genius alchemist discovered in Sonox, she beca happy. She finally saw a chance to impart her knowledge to soone before she ascended.
Unlike the others, as an alchemist, she doesn’t require a level of combat mastery to make it in a high world.
In fact, even a ’Great’ High world had already shown interest in her and was only delaying her inevitable departure because of her disciple.
First, she was happy to have Princess Sylvara as her disciple. She was as brilliant as they said, and that alone made her very happy.
However, that all started to change when she began to improve.
At first, it was re arrogance that everyone at her level and status would feel. However, as ti went by, she started to get worse.
She beca so competitive that she sought to destroy those who showed signs of surpassing her. She even went so far as to ensure that everybody knew her status and understood what she stood for.
Luckily for her, she is brilliant, so being arrogant suited her, but Lady Liora grew increasingly irritated to the point it started affecting her cultivation.
The calm, alchemist life she had built for herself was being disturbed, and that had been shaking her for years now.
She did all she could, but the more the Pill Princess improved, the more she proved arrogant and disobedient.
So Lady Liora had had enough, and now she ca to realize that the only way to put her back in check was to shatter the bubble she was in, the one that made her think she was the best.
This was why sothing she had never thought of doing was now her only way out.
She left her floating island and made her way to Lady Enzi’s to talk to Kent and see if she could seek his help in straightening up her discipline.
anwhile, the Pill Princess, who had heard of Kent’s face-off with Xhan, had now beco even angrier with Kent.
She is the second strongest, or so she sees herself, and as it stood, the only person standing in her way was Xhan, whose poison was sothing she wasn’t able to conquer yet.
So, hearing Kent faced Xhan, breathed in his poison like fresh air, and even went as far as to dominate him by threatening Xhan, she wanted nothing now more than ever to shut Kent up.
"Pill Princess, I learned he is now staying with Lady Enzi. Getting to him is not possible." A disciple said to the Pill Princess, who was ditating in front of her golden Pill cauldron.
Hearing the report, she gritted her teeth, looking very pissed.
"Tell the mont he appears."
"Okay, Pill Princess." The disciple left.
"Kent Madson, soon, I will shut you up." With that, she went back to her business, hoping that the next ti she received news, Kent would be within her grasp.
