Chapter 688 Cultivating For Three Years (1/2)

Time seemed to be meaningless to them when cultivating. Three years passed in the blink of an eye.

A statue sat on the side of the stone hall.

The figure was cross-legged on the ground, surrounded by spiritual light. Occasionally, it released a stream of spiritual energy that shot up into the sky.

Crack!

With a loud sound, the statue shattered. Inside it was a young man with a graceful aura. He was none other than Darren.

As he had remained motionless for three years, the dust had covered him and given him a statue-like appearance.

At this moment, he had reached a bottleneck, and so, he woke from his meditation.

”I've reached the top level of six-star Grand Realm. My progress has been a little faster than expected.”

Darren could quickly absorb spiritual energy from the outside world because of his martial arts talent at the ninth level of the Heaven Degree. Thus, his cultivation speed was much faster than that of other martial artists.

However, advancement in a cultivator's realm did not rely only on spiritual energy, but also on experiences and perception.

Therefore, just as he was about to enter the seven-star Grand Realm, Darren encountered a bottleneck and could not advance further, no matter how hard he tried.

Since he was unable to break through in a short time, it was pointless to continue the cultivation. That was why Darren woke. He knew that he could cultivate again later.

”Although my sword and blade intents haven't reached the extreme level, people feel that they have.”

Darren hadn't practiced the blade and sword intents to their extreme level when he had once practiced in the time and space vortex. He knew that for each branch of cultivation, there could only be one person to master the extreme intent. He had inherited his blade and sword intents from that young man with a pair of sword eyes. In theory, it would be impossible for Darren to cultivate it to the extreme level while the young man still lived.

”Wait a minute!” Darren's eyes widened as a thought flashed through his mind.

”Fire is attached to my blade intent. And ice is bound to my sword intent. If I can merge the ice and fire completely into the blade and sword intents, it will be a different kind of cultivation method.”

Darren couldn't help but be excited at this thought. He was sure that no one had considered combining fire and ice essence with blade and sword intents before.
