91: Sword Intent Level, Special Training

The next day.

The sky was not yet bright.

The communication Formation inside Su Yun's Immortal Cave received an external communication request.

“Who is it?”

Su Yun opened his eyes, and with a thought,

The communication Formation opened a light screen.

The light screen displayed a Fairy dressed in a blue dress with a cold and elegant temperament.

“Senior Sister Qingshuang?”

“So early?”

Su Yun immediately channeled his spiritual energy and connected the communication.

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Get up and practice the sword.”

“Alright!”

Su Yun closed the communication and stood up directly.

He soon arrived outside the Immortal Cave.

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Follow me.”

Luo Qingshuang's originally cold expression was, for some reason, filled with drive.

This was the first time Su Yun had seen such an expression on Luo Qingshuang.

He felt a bit confused for a moment.

“Senior Sister Qingshuang, do you practice sword arts this early every day?”

“Yes.”

As they spoke, the two quickly reached the back mountain.

There was a flat area on the back mountain of Flowing Light Peak.

“Right here.”

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Let's practice sword arts.”

Luo Qingshuang took out a Low Grade spirit sword.

“Okay.”

Su Yun also took out a Low Grade spirit sword.

“I will suppress my spiritual energy to the Golden Core Realm.”

“Frost Sword Art!”

Luo Qingshuang immediately struck after speaking, her ice-blue spiritual energy pouring into the spirit sword.

Following that, she brandished her spirit sword, and countless ice swords formed in the air, then shot towards Su Yun.

“Flowing Light Sword Art!”

Su Yun performed the sword art.

He did not use any amplification Cultivation Techniques.

He simply used pure spiritual energy to perform the sword art.

As he executed the sword art, a streak of red flowing light appeared.

The red flowing light collided with the ice swords, reaching a stalemate in mid-air.

A bone-chilling Sword Intent emanated from the ice swords.

Su Yun discovered that although his spiritual energy intensity was not inferior to Luo Qingshuang's,

His Sword Intent could not compare to hers.

Could it be a problem with his cultivation level?

After the time it takes for an incense stick to burn had passed, a trace of cold sweat appeared on Su Yun's forehead.

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Your Sword Intent Rank is too low.”

At this point, Luo Qingshuang stopped her attack, seemingly seeing his confusion from Su Yun's expression.

“Shuang'er is right.”

Meng Shuyan suddenly appeared on the back mountain of Flowing Light Peak, her black eyes looking at Su Yun with a smile.

“Yun'er, do you know what Realms exist in the Sword Dao from entry to Major Achievement?”

“Sword Intent, Sword Domain, and Sword World—three Realms.”

“You are correct, but each Realm is divided into grades.

Sword Intent is divided into four Ranks: Low Grade, Medium Grade, High Grade, and Peak Grade.

The other two Realms also have the same grade divisions.”

“Your current Sword Intent is only at the Low Grade level, while Shuang'er's Sword Intent has already reached the High Grade level.

In fact, she could have advanced to the Sword Domain long ago.

She simply wanted to make her Sword Intent even stronger.

That is why she continues to temper her Sword Intent.”

Meng Shuyan looked at Luo Qingshuang with satisfaction and continued:

“Yun'er, the Sword Intent Rank has a great impact on the strength of your future Sword Domain and Sword World.

Therefore, you must temper your Sword Intent to at least the High Grade level before advancing to the Sword Domain.

As for the Peak Grade level, almost no one can reach it.

As far as Revered Master knows, only I have reached Peak Grade Sword Intent.”

“Alright, I will temper my Sword Intent well.”

Su Yun immediately asked in his mind:

“System, why didn't you tell me that Sword Intent was divided into Ranks?”

【Ding, because the Host did not ask.】

“Fine, that reason is unbeatable.”

Su Yun snapped back to reality, preparing to continue practicing the sword with Luo Qingshuang.

“Yun'er, the best way to raise Low Grade Sword Intent to Medium Grade is to use it frequently.

If you want to raise Medium Grade Sword Intent further, you need your own insights.

To help your Sword Intent improve better,

Revered Master has specially prepared a special training for you.”

The corners of Meng Shuyan's mouth curled up slightly as she spoke in a mysterious tone.

“Special training?”

Su Yun looked at Meng Shuyan with some doubt.

From the corner of his eye, he saw Luo Qingshuang's hesitant expression.

Hmm?

Is there a catch?

Looking at Luo Qingshuang's expression, this training seemed a bit off.

No, better play it safe.

“Revered Master, I will temper my Sword Intent well when I go out for experience.

I won't trouble you to help me with special training.”

“Yun'er, even Shuang'er has gone through my special training; you can't fall behind!”

Meng Shuyan narrowed her eyes and spoke in a dangerous tone.

“Mas—”

“Alright, Yun'er, get in here!”

Meng Shuyan appeared behind Su Yun with a smile on her face, then gave a gentle pull with her jade-like hand.

The two of them vanished from the spot.

“Junior Brother Yun.”

“Take care.”

After silently praying for Su Yun, Luo Qingshuang continued practicing her sword art on the back mountain... the Flowing Light Sword Realm.

“Where is this?”

“This is Revered Master's Sword World; I call it the Flowing Light Sword Realm.”

“Sword World?”

Only then did Su Yun observe his surroundings.

He saw that this place was filled with colorful flowing lights, giving it a beautiful and dreamlike feeling.

But upon careful perception, one would discover that this beautiful world was filled with killing intent.

Every streak of colorful flowing light that drifted by actually contained a massive amount of Sword Dao Law.

If an enemy were to become immersed in this beautiful scenery, then they would not be far from death.

“Yun'er, do you think it's pretty here?”

“It's pretty.”

“That's good. Now, let the special training begin!”

Meng Shuyan clapped her hands, and suddenly a figure appeared in the distance.

“This is?”

Su Yun suddenly had a bad feeling.

Why did that figure look so much like Meng Shuyan?

“This is a phantom I created on a whim.

Her Realm is at the Golden Core Eighth Layer, just like yours.

The Sword Intent she uses is Medium Grade Sword Intent.

Next, you will spar with her to temper your sword arts!”

“Don't worry, I've already set the rules here so that you won't die. Even if you are heavily injured by the phantom, you can recover instantly.”

Meng Shuyan said comfortingly as she looked at Su Yun's slightly changing complexion.

“Alright, disciple, do your best!”

After Meng Shuyan finished speaking, she turned into a streak of colorful light and disappeared.

At that moment, Meng Shuyan's phantom suddenly flickered and appeared in front of Su Yun.

Immediately, she gripped her spirit sword and slashed directly at him.

“Holy crap, she's like a ghost!”

Su Yun did not dare to be careless, and the Flowing Cloud Sword flew out from his body to be gripped in his hand.

“Flowing Light Sword Art!”

“Flowing Light Sword Art!”

The same sword art was used twice, but the power was worlds apart.

The sword light Su Yun executed was instantly shattered, and a powerful Sword Intent struck him directly.

He only felt a wave of sharp pain throughout his body, becoming heavily injured in an instant.

Immediately after, the Flowing Light Sword Realm's Laws surged, and the injuries on his body were instantly healed.

“Is this what Medium Grade Sword Intent is like?”

Before Su Yun could react,

Another streak of flowing light flew past, and many more wounds appeared on Su Yun's body.

Several hours passed.

From being instantly heavily injured at the beginning to gradually being able to withstand a few moves,

Su Yun's proficiency with the Flowing Light Sword Art improved greatly.

However, his Sword Intent still hadn't increased in Rank.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the flowing lights attacking him had become two.

“This is?”

“Another one?”

Meng Shuyan's phantom had suddenly split into two, both performing sword arts as they attacked Su Yun simultaneously.
