Chapter 556 (2/2)

“This sword technique is a technique where one’s heart is of paramount importance. The legacy was only a portrait of the Mystic Abyss Heavenly Emperor. It does not pursue any concrete stance or moves, and the crux of the sword technique lies in the cultivator’s heart.

“When someone below the Divine level performs it, they can slash out a person’s consciousness from their physical body, causing their consciousness to enter a state of chaos or even to be completely wiped out.

“For those who have attained the Divine level, they would be able to truly condense their martial will, which is also their sword intent, into a Six Heaven-Soaring Swords. They would be able to kill the consciousness and shake the will of their opponent. The sword technique is extremely powerful.

“This means of condensing the will to form a physical form is like Eldest Brother’s Yama Sacred Physique, which he inherited from the Ancient Path of Hell.”

Fang Xingjian nodded. “Again!”

It was a rare opportunity for him to encounter another sword technique which was the legacy of a Divine level expert. Fang Xingjian was burning with eagerness. Excitement flashed in his eyes as he immediately started to have an exchange with the Fourth Prince in their sword arts.

Their sword intents continued to cross paths in void space. Each time they clashed intensely, it was as if many explosions had gone off in their minds.

Each time their sword intents collided, it was not just an exchange of their sword theories. It also tempered their martial wills.

However, Fang Xingjian’s learning speed was far too terrifying. After a short half an hour, Fang Xingjian was already able to create a simulation of the Six Heaven-Soaring Swords and was pushing back the Fourth Prince, whose face had turned pale.

If it was not because he wanted to learn from the Fourth Prince’s sword intent, Fang Xingjian would have long won.

Philip, who was at the side, laughed and said, “Watch out, Xingjian. I’m joining in too.”

The moment he spoke, another gush of sword intent soared into the air. This sword intent was yet again different from Fang Xingjian’s deathly sword intent and the Fourth Prince’s Six Heaven-Soaring Swords.

At the beginning, it was just a hint of light. However, as the sword intent circulated, the hint of light soon developed into a light pillar that penetrated through the sky and the earth, as if it was going to fill up every inch and corner of the world.

This was the unrivalled sword light which had been condensed from the Church of Universal Truth’s Universal Truth Longsword. It was filled with an aura of light, justice, and being the one and only.

It was clear that despite being members of the royal family and having also picked up the martial techniques of the Ancient Path of Hell, both the Fourth Prince and Prince Philip each had their own encounters and had created their own paths in martial arts.

Philip sent his sword intent sweeping out, shattering both the Fourth Prince’s and Fang Xingjian’s sword intents which were moving around in the sky. He forced their sword intents to shrink back into their bodies.

Amidst the interactions and clashes of their sword intent, the three of them were constantly having exchanges in their sword arts, tempering their martial wills. Fang Xingjian could sense that his sword arts, which had been stagnated for very long, was going through an explosive progression once again.

After all, the Fourth Prince had obtained the legacy of a Divine level sword technique, while Prince Philip was a Divine level expert to begin with. An opportunity like this to spar and have exchanges was too rare.

After Fang Xingjian created his Five God-Slaying Swords and his sword arts level had reached a bottleneck, an exchange like this was allowing him to progress once again.

Just like that, seven days and seven nights passed by. A loud boom rang out in void space, and all of their sword intents returned to their bodies.

Philip smiled with satisfaction. He looked at the two young men, who had their eyes closed, and said with a sigh, ” Each age brings forth new genius to this noble land, and each will rule their own domain for years to come. 1 I’ve never come across people with the kind of sword arts talent that the two of you possess. There are no limits to the future prospects both of you will have in your lives.”
