Chapter 46 - Xiang Dragon Sword Qi (2/2)
The [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art] was even more complex than this sword totem. Its complexity was beyond his imagination!
Although he had been cultivating the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art], he could only roughly visualize it. The Flame Order Palace, Fire Tree and Sui Sovereign, he still could not fully visualize the details of the totem carvings.
In order to fully visualize the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art], it was a vast and mighty challenge, tens of times harder than the sword gate before him, he would need an incredibly formidable psyche to visualize the entirety of the [Sui Sovereign Flame Order Palace Visualization Art].
With the current psyche in his psyche ocean of three thousand mus, mustering all his psyche could probably allow him to visualize a pinky of the Sui Sovereign in the unblemished state!
"Actually… En, the fundamental of this [Geng Jin Sword Qi], is also visualization."
Xin Huo was resentful toward the name '[Geng Jin Sword Qi],' he thought that the name was an insult to such a profound technique. Unwillingly he instructed, "Form a sword gate in your psyche ocean and nourish the Sword Qi in it, but not all by your psyche, but the energy from the heaven and earth, the world, and the planet. If you have a spirit, you can extract Metal Qi from metallic items, Wood Qi from the trees, Water Qi from the oceans, and Fire Qi from the Sun. You can manifest all of these into your own Sword Qi, rather than having it only as the [Geng Jin Sword Qi]. But you don't have a spirit yet; it is impossible for you to extract the Sword Qi from the world."
"Abstracting energy from the world to form the Sword Qi?"
Zhong Yue felt envy towards the Qi Practitioners, "Even a commonly practiced sword skill is so powerful, the Swords Gate is really amazing. Xin Huo, without the spirit, I really can't do it?"
Xin Huo said proudly, "You can't abstract energies from the world to form a Sword Qi, but you have the essence of the beast god. They are energies abstracted by the beast god, as long as you can master the beast god essence, you can form a beast Sword Qi."
"Beast Sword Qi? What kind of weird name is this?"
"It is basically a Sword Qi from the Xiang Dragon."
Xin Huo thought for a moment, and he said, "It is indeed a weird name, we shall then call it the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi. You can form the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi from the essence of the Beast God Inner Core. Now, visualize the sword gate and perfect it, then absorb the beast god essence and place them into the sword gate."
Zhong Yue blinked and asked, "Xin Huo, is there anything I need to be aware of?"
"None at all, rest assured, I promise you will be safe…"
Moments later, Zhong Yue's soul was engulfed by the beast god essence. He turned into a Xiang Dragon standing in the midst of lightning, getting struck, burned and spurting out black fumes. A pair of furious eyes stared fiercely at Xin Huo.
"Um… It seems like it is indeed a little bit dangerous."
Xin Huo was diffident, and he whispered, "But not very dangerous, just be a little bit more cautious."
Zhong Yue spent another half a day on refining the excessive beast god essence and reverted his soul to the Sui Sovereign form. He formed the sword gate with his psyche and cautiously, he absorbed the beast god essence into the sword gate.
After over ten days, he was finally able to form the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi, it was five feet long and shaped like a sprinting Xiang Dragon, with sharp edges and a wild, brutal aura!
The moment it made its appearance, the surroundings turned red, and the air around was starting to get burning hot!
With a shift of his thoughts, the Dragon Scale Sword flew up and clashed with the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi—Chui—a single blow and the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi was smashed away; Zhong Yue could not help but furrow his brows.
It was only formed for tens of day, and I am hoping it to be comparable to a soul weapon, how can it be possible?
Zhong Yue moved his psyche, and the broken Xiang Dragon Sword Qi was recovered, he thought in his heart, Dragon Scale Sword is crafted with the mystic gold and darksteel. It was one of the strongest soul weapons among the upper house disciples; it would only be abnormal if the newly formed Xiang Dragon Sword Qi were able to break Dragon Scale Sword. But the good thing is, Xiang Dragon Sword Qi didn't need my soul to control it, even if it is crushed, the loss will not be as high.
Zhong Yue lifted his finger, and the Dragon Scale Sword flew into the sword scabbard, while the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi flew into his psyche ocean to continue absorbing the beast god essence so that it would grow stronger and tougher.
Every day and night, the Sword Qi was getting stronger and stronger, it totem carvings on the sword gate grew more detailed. With such a cultivation speed, it would not take long for the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi to surpass the Dragon Scale Sword.
The Lawless Battle is coming close. I wonder how strong the Xiang Dragon Sword Qi can reach before the year-end battle?
All of a sudden, Xin Huo jumped out and clapped his hands, and he said, "I have a good name, from today onward, Geng Jin is history. This technique has unlimited possibilities, and it manifests energies from the world, we shall name it as the [Boundless Great Sword Qi]!"
"[Boundless Great Sword Qi]?"
Zhong Yue startled, he then suggested, "It's better if we call it [Great Boundless Sword Qi]."
"[Boundless Great Sword Qi] it is then ... it sounds more imposing! With a swing of the hand, Sword Qi as big as a mountain comes and slams down, don't you think it's very cool?"
Skills in mandarin are 法门 which literally translates to 'magical gate'.
