Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
"Qingfeng, you lost?" said Wushuang Nie as he looked at Qingfeng.
Qingfeng said, "Uncle Nie I want to know what sort of sword technique this is! Why is it so powerful?"
Wushuang Nie shook his head and said, "This isn't sword technique. It is sword intent."
"Sword intent." Qingfeng gradually realized after he heard Wushuang.
He had some understanding of sword intent and knew that it was much more powerful than sword techniques. It was able to transform all the surroundings into sword intent, and trap one's opponent within an illusion, not allowing them to escape.
"Uncle Nie, what is this sword intent and why is it so powerful?" Qingfeng asked.
Wushuang Nie smiled and said, "This is Grass Sword Intent. Everything that exists has a soul, like a stalk of grass. Even a flower can form sword intent and release great attacks, even though it is but a plant."
Wushuang Nie told Qingfeng more of sword intent knowledge, including how to form sword intent and control it, and also how to unleash sword intent attacks.
Qingfeng stood beside the sword energy pond and learned the sword intent along with Wushuang Nie. They practiced different sword techniques, but the principles behind sword intent were all connected.
Qingfeng was a quick learner. He had already understood 20% of sword intent, but with Wushuang's guidance, he was able to quickly master 50%.
He flourished the Fire Emperor Sword in his hands and charged forward. A red flame formed, different from the flames that he released before, because this time, it contained rays of sword intent.
Wushuang felt his surroundings, the sky, ground, air, rocks, and rivers had all been engulfed in flames. The blaze contained intense temperature that burnt the air, his body boiling red like a lobster.
Wushuang wiped off the sweat on his forehead and said, "Qingfeng, your talent is too powerful! You've already mastered half of the sword intent only after a short while."
Qingfeng smiled and said, "Uncle Nie, that is only thanks to your teachings."
Qingfeng invited Wushuang to leave with him, but Wushuang shook his head in refusal. He told Qingfeng that he had to stay here and continue to train.
"Uncle Nie, I will leave you alone to train more. I'll leave first, so thank you for all your help." Qingfeng thanked Wushuang, then waved his hands and left.
Qingfeng arrived outside the ruins, where the Wolf Fang Team and the others were all waiting for him.
"Boss, your powers have increased again!" exclaimed Daoist as he felt the great energy emitting off of Qingfeng's body.
Qingfeng nodded, and said, "Daoist, I remember that I promised your master if I ever came to the forbidden Kunlun district, I would rescue your ancestral master who was trapped there."
Daoist's eyes filled with joy as he said, "Boss, I came here especially under my master's wishes. He hopes to rescue my ancestral master, who is trapped underneath Dthe aogong Mountain."
"Come, let's head to Daogong Mountain." Qingfeng led everyone towards the new destination.
Daogong Mountain was a massive mountain inside of the Kunlun area, and it was one of the three major mountains of the forbidden Kunlun Mountain district. It used to be an important pillar of Daoism in the ancient era, and like the Dragon Tiger Mountain, it was one of their main forces.
The Monk's ancestral master came here to seek treasures, but was unfortunately trapped.
Not long after Qingfeng left, he stopped because he saw someone before him, and that person was Linger Yao.
Linger Yao was fighting with Jianhuang Zhao. Since Jianhuang had acquired the Immortal's Sutra, he became incredibly powerful, and could make Linger retreat several steps.
"You wait here, I'll go help Linger," Qingfeng told the others to stay there, and he moved forward himself.
In front, Jianhuang held his long sword, every sword slash able to tear a crack through the Heavens and Earth, containing invincible power.
Linger Yao was in the Spirit Emperor Realm and inherited the Fire Emperor's legacy. But, Jianhuang's power was only the Spirit Emperor Realm. He had yet to reach immortal realm, so his techniques were limited.
However the Immortal's Sutra was different, it was the self-cultivation technique that ancient immortals trained in. After Jianhuang had acquired this technique, he became invincible.
"Linger Yao, you had blocked me when I tried to kill Qingfeng. Consider your death today the payment for obstructing me," Jianghuang looked at Linger and said with murderous intent.
In the Forbidden Kunlun District, if it weren't for Linger's help from before, Jianhuang would have already killed Qingfeng.
Linger's beautiful face grew pale due to the large consumption of vital essence. She had already fought Jianhuang for a while now, and had lost plenty of energy. If she wasn't train in the Fire Emperor techniques, Jianhuang would have already killed her by now.
Linger Yao remained calm, she didn't waste a word with Jianhuang nor beg for mercy, because there was no way Jianhuang would let her go anyways.
She waved her palm and a massive vital essence palm formed that blocked the sun and the entire sky. It charged downwards in attempt to squash Jianhuang Zhao.
Jianhuang didn't care at all, and with a pierce of his longsword, a ray of golden light shot out. The golden light tore through the sky and immediately shattered the massive palm into golden pieces that disappeared in the air.
"Linger Yao, don't waste your breath, you're not my opponent. I've already reached the first level of the Immortal's Sutra. You can't beat me," Jianhuang Zhao said with arrogant pride.
He charged forward with his sword, his sword energy shooting out golden rays everywhere. It pierced a bloody hole in Linger's arm as her blood poured out.
Linger's face grew pale, she thought to herself, "I have to leave or else I'm going to die!"
Jianhuang Zhao already saw through Linger Yao's thoughts. "Do you want to run? You can't escape, I've already set traps everywhere, and there's the sky cloud array formation."
Linger Yao's face changed when she heard the four words, and she looked around and saw countless vitality stones that formed a cloud-like shape, preventing her from escaping.
Jianhuang Zhao waved his long sword and attacked Linger as she continuously retreated and spat out blood. Her body was already deeply wounded.
Qingfeng just happened to see the wounded Linger Yao when he arrived. His face changed and his eyes grew cold.
"Damn Jianhuang, how dare you hit Linger? You're asking for it." Qingfeng smiled coldly as he walked forward.
Suddenly, Qingfeng stopped in his track and mumbled to himself, "There's actually a defense array formation?"
"How ridiculous, you want to stop me with merely an array formation?" Qingfeng pulled out his Fire Emperor Sword on him and charged forcefully forward.
His Fire Emperor Sword released great red flame sword energy, and it contained invincible energy. With one slash of the sword, it tore open a large crack in the sky cloud array formation, destroying numerous array formation talisman scripts and vitality stones.
