Chapter 1586: Major Achievement of Sword Origin (2/2)
Jian Chen gently sighed and dismissed his thoughts. He continued his cultivation. He sent his consciousness into the twin swords while his mind sank into the comprehension of the Way of the Sword. Gradually, he entered a state of meditation.
As he began to meditate, a layer of white light gradually appeared in his surroundings, covering his entire body. He gave off an extremely sharp sword intent, which permeated an area several dozen kilometers wide. The air and all the invisible energy in the region would freeze before sharpening as well, turning into invisible sword Qi, as if they had been infected by the sword intent.
The region around him became filled with sword Qi, becoming a world of sword intent
Jian Chen’s comprehension of the Way of the Sword had reached the peak of partial achievement of Sword Origin. He was about to advance to major achievement. Every time he comprehended the Way of the Sword, he would give off a sword intent, which would envelope a region that was several dozen kilometers wide. In order to avoid disturbing Shangguan Mu’er, he chose to cultivate a hundred kilometers away.
However, the sword Qi around Jian Chen became several times more powerful all of a sudden while he white light around him exploded as well. It turned into a pillar that extended into the sky, shining with a resplendent light and illuminating the entire world.
A supreme sword Qi swept out in all directions with Jian Chen at the center. It ripped through space and destroyed the ground, riddling the surrounding several dozen kilometers with spatial cracks. The gray ground rapidly sank as well. The soil did not compress but instead disappeared, turning into nothing before the supreme sword Qi as if it had evaporated.
In just a few seconds, soil nine meters deep vanished from a radius of several dozen kilometers. The only part that remained was a circle three meters wide, where Jian Chen was sitting. Jian Chen’s body was enveloped by the pillar of bright light, completely obscuring his body.
However, the pillar of light rapidly changed. In the end, it formed a sword, which stood under the heavens. The illusory sword was so powerful that it devastated the surroundings.
At the same time, Jian Chen’s soul strengthened at an unbelievable rate. His comprehension of the Way of the Sword had finally reached major achievement and with it came benefits to his soul.
Jian Chen felt his soul rapidly swell, developing like a child to an adult. He could feel his soul strengthen with every passing moment, tearing through Returnance and heading to Reciprocity.
His soul did not stop there. After reaching Reciprocity, his soul continued to strengthen as if it would never stop. It broke through early Reciprocity and mid Reciprocity before stopping at late Reciprocity.
Jian Chen could clearly sense that his soul was far more powerful than before. He had never experienced anything like that. If he could just advance a little further, his soul would surpass the Origin realm and reach Godhood.
Jian Chen’s strength had not reached the Spiritking’s level after nine years of cultivation, but there had still been a significant increase. He had reached the sixth layer of the Chaotic Body and his comprehension of the Way of the Sword had progressed from partial achievement to major achievement. Even his soul had reached late Reciprocity.
Jian Chen was able to fight late Returnance experts when he was at the fifth layer of the Chaotic Body and while his comprehension of the Way of the Sword was at partial achievement. Now, he could fight Reciprocity experts.
The white light around Jian Chen gradually faded and the huge sword condensed out of sword Qi vanished. Jian Chen reappeared.
Jian Chen opened his eyes and looked around at the ground that had sunk by nine meters. His face did not change at all. He took a step and instantly vanished, reappearing over ten kilometers away.
Jian Chen had crossed a hundred kilometers with a few steps. Before him, the alluring Shangguan Mu’er stood with her beautiful back straightened. She had waited for quite some time now.
Meanwhile, her strength had reached late Returnance as well.
“You’ve broken through.” Shangguan Mu’er looked at Jian Chen warmly with her enchanting eyes. Her voice was filled with charm, enough to cause people to go numb.
Jian Chen nodded. “It’s a small breakthrough, but I’m still an extremely great distance away from being able to fight the Spiritking. However, my Chaotic Body has reached the peak of the sixth layer, so I should be able to reach the seventh layer by absorbing energy from the rock one more time. The first to sixth layers of the Chaotic Body are all just a part of minor achievement. Once I reach the seventh layer, I’ll progress to partial achievement of the Chaotic Body, and if I do want to move on, I’ll need to comprehend ways. They are the key to the sixth layer, so there’s an unimaginably great difference between the sixth and seventh layer. I wonder what my strength will reach once I do break through and whether or not it will be enough to take on the Spiritking.”
Shangguan Mu’er smiled when. “If that’s the case, let’s get cultivating. I’ve also reached late Returnance and am going to break through to Reciprocity soon.”
