Among the rewards obtained from this sign-in was the Sword Dao Realm Card, which allowed Chu Qinghe to instantly acquire a large amount of sword dao knowledge and successfully enter the third realm of sword dao, the realm of man and sword as one.

Chu Qinghe didn't know much about swordsmanship.

However, according to the system's introduction just now, the way of the sword is divided into five major realms.

The first is the Mortal Sword Realm.

This is the initial stage of Kendo, focusing on technique.

Whether it's the sharp and fierce swordplay when wielding a sword, the flowing and continuous swordplay, or the sinister and unpredictable swordplay, it's all included.

In the martial arts world, almost 90% of martial artists are at this level, spending their entire lives pondering and studying the martial arts and sword techniques they have mastered.

The second is the realm of the swordsman, which is the state of having a sword in hand but no sword in mind.

Swordsmen who have reached this level can be called masters of swordsmanship. Their sword techniques have reached a state of perfection, changing at will and being unpredictable.

To reach this level, the minimum requirement is that one's sword techniques and martial arts must reach a state of "returning to simplicity".

The third is the realm of the swordsman, also known as the realm of the unity of man and sword. Man is sword, and sword is man. It can be said that there is no sword in hand, but a sword in heart. Even withered grass can be used as a weapon to defend against enemies.

In the martial arts world, those who can reach the third realm of swordsmanship, the Human-Sword Realm, are extremely rare.

However, it was Yan Shisan, who died many years ago, as well as Xie Xiaofeng, the Sword God of Shenjian Villa, and Mu Daoren of Wudang, who were among the top swordsmen of the older generation, who entered this realm.

Among the younger generation of swordsmen in the Ming Dynasty, it seems that only Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng have just entered this realm.

However, looking at the "Man and Sword as One" realm in the system, Chu Qinghe felt something was off.

After all, the phrase "Man is sword, sword is man" sounds somewhat like an insult.

However, being able to reach the third realm of swordsmanship, the unity of man and sword, is no less valuable than the sword intent mastered by Chu Qinghe.

This could allow Chu Qinghe's strength to rise to another level.

The martial arts upgrade card obtained from this sign-in allows Chu Qinghe to upgrade any martial art or technique below the upper-level Heaven rank by one level.

Its value is self-evident.

As for the Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom, it is exceptionally valuable, no less so than yesterday's Love-Sickness Grass and Nine-Leaf Nine-Heart Grass.

With the addition of medicinal ingredients by Chu Qinghe, a special Jade Cardamom Pill could be refined.

The final Black Jade Silkworm Silk, according to the system description, is made from black jade gilded ore mixed with special items. It is as fine as silkworm silk and is impervious to swords and spears, as well as water and fire. It is also extremely rare and hard to find.

After determining the function and value of the items obtained from this sign-in, Chu Qinghe had an idea.

"System, use the 'Sword Dao Realm Card' on me."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, a series of information related to the way of the sword instantly appeared in Chu Qinghe's body.

The information is extensive, ranging from the essentials of various sword styles, such as fast sword, heavy sword, and soft sword, to various sword-using techniques.

As this information was being processed in her mind, a peculiar feeling also emerged in Chu Qingge's mind.

As this special feeling intensified, Chu Qinghe quickly absorbed the sword-related content in his mind and suddenly had a sense of enlightenment.

This feeling is like when you're working on the most challenging math problem in your past life, you've been racking your brains for ages without any results, but then suddenly a flash of inspiration comes to you and you understand the solution and the thought process—it's like a sudden enlightenment.

It's like suddenly forgetting a lot of basic elementary school knowledge when you're in college, and then looking back at your first-grade textbook and having that instant realization.

Under this enlightenment, the internal energy within Chu Qinghe's body unconsciously flowed out and then, as if possessing its own consciousness, slowly circulated within him.

Furthermore, each of these internal forces is not only filled with a sharpness, but also mixed with a rich sense of leisure and elusiveness.

It clearly incorporated sword intent.

But strangely enough, even though Chu Qinghe's internal energy was surrounding him, it suddenly stopped just before it touched Xiao Zhao, without harming her at all.

A sharp and heavy aura gradually filled the air, quickly spreading throughout the entire courtyard.

Inside the room, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue, who had been cultivating with their eyes closed, opened their eyes and looked at the roof where Chu Qinghe and Xiao Zhao were, their faces showing surprise.

With their strength, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue were naturally able to sense the sword intent contained within the pressure permeating the air.

Moreover, unlike Chu Qinghe's previous use of sword intent, which was sharp and piercing, the sword intent that permeated the air at this moment was as fleeting as floating clouds, its aura appearing and disappearing intermittently.

Clearly, Chu Qinghe has gained new insights into the control of sword intent.

Perhaps having already witnessed Chu Qinghe's talent, although they were surprised, Dongfang Bubai and Yaoyue calmed down after a few moments and then looked away.

As the aura that had been permeating the air slowly dissipated, Chu Qinghe opened his eyes.

When Chu Qinghe opened his eyes, a smile appeared in them.

Although Chu Qinghe had previously mastered the perfect level of the Floating Cloud Sword Intent, he still lacked experience in the art of martial arts.

Not to mention the way of the sword.

Therefore, although Chu Qinghe seemed to have mastered the perfect level of the Floating Cloud Sword Intent, his method of using this sword intent was too superficial and simplistic.

But now, with Chu Qinghe successfully entering the third realm of swordsmanship, the state of oneness between man and sword, he has already mastered the art of swordsmanship.
