67: Myriad Sword Intents! The Four Seasons Sword Technique!

He looked at Fourth Senior Sister's eyes, which held little emotion yet seemed capable of seeing through everything, and then at the varied expressions of the other Senior Sisters. He felt his own Sword Intent seed, which was still merely stirring and had yet to sprout from the earth... and he sighed helplessly in his heart.

Well, the joy of Mu Lingxi's Breakthrough to Soul Transformation hadn't even warmed up before the cruel reality slapped him in the face again.

The Heavenly Sword Trial and Sword Child Xiao Wuqing—there were only three days left before departure.

How I suffer!

The commotion of Mu Lingxi successfully Undergoing Tribulation and reaching Soul Transformation shook nearly half of the Heavenly Evolution Immortal Sect.

Sect Master Mu Xinghe was naturally overjoyed. He went to Mu Lingxi's side, holding his daughter's hand and questioning her carefully, then personally took action to help her stabilize her newly reached Realm, which was still a bit unstable.

The other Senior Sisters also made their own gestures. Second Senior Sister Su Qingyin gifted a zither score for Soul-Soothing and Mind-Steadying, while Fourth Senior Sister Yun Guying coldly threw over a bottle of Healing Ointment, reminding her that after reaching Soul Transformation, she needed to focus more on polishing her Dao Heart.

Fifth Senior Sister Li Miaoer... said "Congratulations" somewhat sourly, then gave Lu Yu a strange look before slipping away.

As the primary contributor to Mu Lingxi's Breakthrough, Lu Yu quietly slipped back to his own Immortal Cave amidst everyone's complicated gazes.

Especially after seeing the Sect Master's gaze, which looked as if it wanted to cut him down, he felt even more guilty.

He now realized whose terrifying gaze that had been earlier.

He had stolen the man's daughter away; could the man possibly have a good look for him?

After closing the Restriction and isolating himself from the outside world, Lu Yu finally let out a long breath.

He had gained much today; he had reached the fourth layer of the Nascent Soul Stage, and Mu Lingxi had also broken through to Soul Transformation.

She had even triggered fifty-one Lightning Tribulations; with such a solid Foundation, her future was limitless.

Furthermore, after last night and this morning... the relationship between the two was completely out in the open, the dust finally settled.

Thinking of that girl's blushing yet exceptionally determined eyes, Lu Yu's heart felt a wave of softness.

Just then!

[Detected that the Protagonist has suppressed the Daughter of Destiny Mu Lingxi with a forceful manner, taking her innocence. Furthermore, Mu Lingxi is deeply in love with the Host, and her body and mind now belong completely to the Protagonist.]

[Reward for Protagonist: destiny +1000, Luck Gold Coins +3000!]

Boom!

An indescribable and vast flood of information, accompanied by a mysterious and profound seed of intent, suddenly surged into Lu Yu's Sea of Consciousness!

Along with it came endless top-tier Sword Dao insights!

These were not specific sword techniques or styles, but countless fragments of insights regarding the essence, evolution, and characteristics of the sword!

From the most basic aspects like weight, speed, hardness, and softness of the sword, to some vague ancient marks that seemed to touch the Sword Dao Origin... it encompassed everything, as vast as the sea!

Lu Yu groaned, feeling as if his head were about to explode as countless images, insights, and thoughts clashed, fused, and settled within him.

In an instant, he felt as if he had observed the training lives of countless Sword Cultivators, experienced thousands of different Sword Dao philosophies, felt the sharpness of crisscrossing Sword Qi, and understood the depth of hiding a sword in its scabbard.

The process was both painful and wonderful.

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the flood of information finally calmed down, eventually settling into his own profound understanding of the Sword Dao.

And the seed of Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent quietly fell into the depths of his Sea of Consciousness, suspended silently, emitting an all-encompassing aura like the beginning of primordial Chaos.

Lu Yu opened his eyes, and in the depths of his pupils, it seemed as if countless tiny sword shadows flashed by.

He casually picked up the ordinary iron sword lying beside him, and an unprecedented sense of familiarity, as if they were connected by blood, surged into his heart.

It was as if the sword was no longer a cold, lifeless object, but an extension of his arm and a vessel for his thoughts.

He didn't even need to think consciously; with a flick of his wrist, the sword tip traced a mysterious path, and the air made a slight tearing sound.

This strike seemed unremarkable, yet it contained the essence of at least three basic sword style variations, and the way the force was applied was smooth and natural, far beyond his previous clunky movements.

"Is this... the insight brought by Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent and top-tier Sword Dao?"

Lu Yu was shocked.

This was equivalent to having the lifelong realizations of countless Sword Cultivators directly infused into him. However, these Sword Dao insights were about sword Moves and techniques, not Sword Dao Concepts.

It gave him unparalleled insight into every single Move and style of his sword techniques.

Yet, the infinite technique insights also gave him a vast amount of personal understanding regarding Sword Dao Concepts.

His knowledge and depth in the Sword Dao instantly rose to a terrifying level.

Although it couldn't be immediately converted into world-shaking lethality, his understanding and use of the sword, and even the direction and speed of comprehending his own unique Sword Intent in the future, would undergo a qualitative leap!

More importantly, it was the Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent rewarded by the System!

Capable of accommodating all Sword Intent, with no upper limit to its growth?

What did this mean?

It meant that his future Sword Dao would have infinite possibilities!

No matter how strong others' Sword Intent was, it ultimately had its limits and attribute biases.

But his Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent could be all-encompassing and inclusive, even merging Sword Intents of different attributes and philosophies to form a unique and terrifying existence that transcended common sense!

And he had also been rewarded with a Sword Dao Divine Ability!

"Four Seasons Sword Art"!

The System's reward was infused into him, and he instantly fully comprehended this Sword Dao Divine Ability, reaching the highest level.

It emphasized 'one sword, one span of time,' the rotation of the four seasons, and that creation is mine to command.

It was divided into four Realms corresponding to the cycle of the seasons. Each season was not just a Sword Intent, but also a Domain.

Spring Birth: The Sword Intent is soft and full of vitality, focusing on trapping and wearing down the enemy; it is most suitable for prolonged battles.

Summer Growth: The sword momentum is violent and as aggressive as fire, reaching the peak of power.

Autumn Solemnity: The Sword Qi is desolate, containing the intent of withering and harvesting; it can shave off one's Lifespan and slash one's Dao attainment.

Winter Hiding: The sword style returns to silence; it is the ultimate in defense and concealment, capable of freezing all things, including spiritual power.

"Heavenly Sword Divine Sect... Sword Child Xiao Wuqing..."

Lu Yu gripped the sword hilt, and an unprecedented light of confidence erupted in his eyes.

Originally, he had been a bit nervous about this Sword Dao duel; after all, the other guy was a professional sword user, while he was just a latecomer.

But now, with Myriad Phenomena Sword Intent as a Foundation, this Sword Dao Divine Ability as his Moves, countless sword technique insights, and his Nine Yang Haori Body...

He had confidence!

Sword Child Xiao Wuqing's current cultivation was at the Nascent Soul Stage Perfection. He possessed top-tier Sword Intent, had comprehended a Sword Heart, and even possessed an immortal sword bone!

He was truly a natural-born Sword Cultivator!

But Lu Yu now possessed a Supreme-level Sword Intent, top-tier sword technique insights, and the top-tier Sword Dao Divine Ability "Four Seasons Sword Art." His Nine Yang Haori Body could also bring him an unparalleled boost in strength!

He was no longer afraid of being unable to defeat this Sword Child!
