Chapter 156 (2/2)

”There's no rush for that. I'm here because there is a great opportunity I would like to offer you, brother,” Luo Yongcheng said, his tone turning serious.

”Oh, what are we talking about here?” Xiang Shaoyun asked in astonishment. Opportunity was something any cultivator longed for. It was not something one could encounter easily. He couldn't help wondering if Luo Yongcheng had any hidden intentions.

”Brother Xiang is working hard to rid the Green Bamboo Town of the Redwolf Bandits. Your action will benefit the people of Green Bamboo Town. Thus, I naturally have to provide any benefit I can to you, brother, but whether you can grasp this opportunity in your hand will depend on your own comprehension ability,” Luo Yongcheng said. He paused for a bit before resuming, ”Within the Green Bamboo Academy is a place called the Saber Forest. There, a remarkable saber master once resided, leaving behind a saber intent from when he had comprehended the saber there. It might be the best place for you to comprehend the saber, my brother.”

”Oh? There's such a good place here?” Xiang Shaoyun was overjoyed.

The so-called saber intent was a more advanced saber concept. In truth, the human saber unity phase was also a sort of saber intent. The next phase after that would be the saber steering phase, a phase where one could freely control the saber to either fly around or kill enemies with only a thought. The final phase would be the saberless phase, a phase where every part of a person was a saber. One's every word, every motion, and every inch of body could itself be a saber. Xiang Shaoyun did not know which phase that saber intent was at, but the Saber Forest was nevertheless still a great place for him to comprehend the saber.

”That's right. But unfortunately, generation after generation, our disciples have failed to comprehend the saber intent there. Nowadays, it has been nothing more than an abandoned area in our academy,” Luo Yongcheng sighed.

”Where is this Saber Forest? I ask that Brother Luo lead me there,” Xiang Shaoyun asked impatiently.

”Hehe, of course I will bring you there. But...” Luo Yongcheng kept Xiang Shaoyun in suspense.

”But what? Please say it,” Xiang Shaoyun asked. Inwardly, he mumbled, Sure enough, there is no free meal in the world.

”If you can comprehend the saber intent, I hope you can hold one lesson and share with us your experience when you had comprehended it,” Luo Yongcheng said.

In other words, Xiang Shaoyun had to teach them what he comprehended from the saber intent. This was in fact a harsh request. n.o.body would be willing to spit out something they had gained with hard work.

But Xiang Shaoyun agreed with no hesitation whatsoever. ”I can agree to that.”

So long as he could comprehend the saber intent, he did not mind sharing what he had learned.

”You are indeed a straightforward person! Come with me, then,” Luo Yongcheng said with praise.

Thus, the two headed toward the Saber Forest in the academy. The Saber Forest was located at the back of the academy, which was a serene and secluded place filled with a lush forest of bamboo.

As they walked, Green Bamboo Academy students could be seen every now and then. This was one of their favorite cultivation spots as all of them also wished to one day comprehend the saber intent. When they saw Luo Yongcheng, they came over and gave him their respects. Their curiosity was piqued when they saw a youngster by Luo Yongcheng's side.

”That is where the Saber Forest is,” said Luo Yongcheng as he pointed in a certain direction.
