Chapter 238 Breakthrough (1/2)

Jian Shen had expected for the fight to not be easy and a very tiresome one, but he hadn't guessed how long the fight would last for.

Having started attacking her a few hours back, Jian Shen couldn't even stop and take a small breather to try and recover a little because that would make him lose the only advantage he possessed right now.

And once that happened, he definitely wouldn't be able to regain the upper hand.

Not now, or ever again due to the tiger woman definitely being on her guard around him.

So, Jian Shen had no choice but to keep on attacking no matter how heavy his arms felt due to the tiredness creeping up on them.

Still, Jian Shen kept on raising them and repeatedly slashed towards the tiger woman in a flurry to keep on pushing her back and maintain his advantage.

But, what Jian Shen himself hadn't noticed was how much smoother and easier his movements right now we're in comparison to before.

All of this was due to him comprehending the Intent of Sword unconsciously while fighting against the tiger woman.

Comprehending the Intent of Sword didn't just mean learning how to use Sword Qi more effectively and efficiently.

Though this was also a part of it, comprehending the Intent of Sword was something done to learn the truth about a sword at a most basic level.

How to best slash a sword, how the body should move when holding a sword, the perfect way to defend using a sword, and so on.

But, all of this wasn't possible to understand by just learning the theories.

Therefore, as Jian Shen's body which knew what to do but never did it until one began incorporating the moves unconsciously during the fight, his body was now moving more efficiently than before due to which he was saving a lot of energy while using more strength at the same time.

This was one of the reasons why Jian Shen found himself being able to last so long during such an intense fight, and still have enough energy to continue for a few more hours.

...

”This can't go on for any longer.”

”Yes. Husband might not know it right now due to him being immersed in the excitement of the battle, but he is drawing too much energy from his soul to make the sight last.”

Yup. To comprehend such a complex and high-level Intent of Heaven and Earth like the Intent of Sword, one could only do it very slowly or through absorbing it from the Sword Spirits like Jian Shen did until now.

But, continuously comprehending the Intent of Sword for such a long time wasn't just taxing on the body but it also had a huge impact on his soul which was helping him grasp the information he needed to.
