Chapter 59: Unknown Sword Intention, Entering the Dao Realm
After Fang Heng regained his body and made what he thought was the right choice.
The battle between Lu Chen and Chiwei has basically come to an end.
In reality, Chiwei, who was originally preparing to fight Lu Chen to the death, suddenly stopped where he was.
It ignored Lu Chen's attack and did not react at all.
It was as if someone had cast a spell on me.
When Lu Chen saw this scene, he knew that his plan... was successful!
In fact, in the previous battles, Lu Chen had forced Chiwei to fight for his body with Fang Heng many times.
But at that time he was unable to force Akao into danger.
As a result, Chiwei still had a lot of external power left to suppress Fang Heng.
Therefore, he was never able to completely defeat Akao.
But this time he used himself as bait, forcing Chiwei to cut off one of his arms, which seriously injured his vitality.
He also drew upon the combat experience he had gained from his many battles with Akao.
In the second stage, he was entangled with him for a long time, forcing him to choose to release the poisonous fog with all his strength to compress his dodging space.
After all this, Akao's own outer power was no longer enough.
It also created an excellent opportunity for Fang Heng to take back his body.
Therefore, in a sense, Akao was never fighting with Lu Chen alone.
He has been fighting with Lu Chen and Fang Heng!
After all, as a disciple of Qingyun Sect, Fang Heng would never accept that he would have to live as a heretic and evil demon in the future.
If that were true, he would rather die.
This is the choice Fang Heng made.
Bang! On the second floor of the Sword Pavilion, Lu Chen broke through the poisonous fog and came to Chiwei, and attacked with all his strength.
The sword energy around him spread out and condensed into a silver-white dragon.
This dragon is lifelike and possesses an invisible dragon power.
A silver-white light passed through Chiwei's body. Lu Chen aimed at the half of the naked body exposed on the snake's head and pierced his chest with a sword.
And this sword not only defeated the external demon body condensed by Akao.
It also destroyed the remaining soul in Fang Heng's body.
Fang Heng, with only half of his body left, looked at the Mo Jiao sword inserted in his chest with a very calm expression.
At this moment, he had no fear of death at all, only endless relief.
Snap...
As Lu Chen drew out the Mo Jiao Sword, a sound like glass breaking was heard.
The next second, a large number of cracks began to appear on Akao's huge body.
Then with a bang, it turned into red fragments all over the sky and slowly melted like ice and snow.
Lu Chen landed gently on the ground and looked up at the fragments floating in the air, as if he was watching a silent farewell ceremony.
A red broken sword covered with cracks fell to the ground amidst the debris.
Finally, it was completely shattered into powder and disappeared into the room on the second floor of Jiange.
The evil sword Red Tail that had blocked Lu Chen for a long time finally disappeared.
Also disappearing with him was Fang Heng, the inner sect disciple of Qingyun Sect who had been hiding for his entire life.
Lu Chen watched all this and after a long silence, he put away his sword and bowed.
"Lu Chen, the 65th generation disciple of Qingyun Sect, congratulates fellow Taoist on his ascension."
Although Fang Heng had been hiding for his entire life, he finally realized his true feelings and made the decision he thought was right.
Even though this realization came a little late, he did not lose his reputation.
Such a person deserves Lu Chen's courtesy.
It was just like the scene after he defeated Ye Chenglin in the ancient tomb.
Although these two people have very different personalities, they are equally firm in upholding the Tao.
"Defending the Dao with one's own body? Being able to teach all the disciples to this level, Qingyun Sect is worthy of being the leader of the five major righteous sects..."
Lu Chen recalled the performance of Ye Chenglin and Fang Heng, and felt inexplicably complicated.
Although he was in the Qingyun Sect in the game, he looked at things from a third-person perspective.
But he had to admit that the atmosphere in Qingyun Sect really made him feel comfortable.
Not only is the sect very good to its disciples, but the relationships among them are also very harmonious.
Although there is competition among everyone, this competition is mostly benign and does not harm harmony.
Lu Chen thought about it from another perspective, wondering if he was really born in a sect like the Qingyun Sect.
Then perhaps he will fight for the sect until the last moment.
After all, the cruelty of immortal cultivators mostly comes from the departure of countless relatives and friends over a long period of time.
It doesn’t mean that cultivators are born cold-blooded and heartless.
After all, cultivators are also human beings and they also hate separation and death.
But that is the secular situation, not the situation in the sect’s holy land.
In the mortal world, your family and friends may have changed drastically and nothing has changed after you finish your retreat.
But in the sect, when you come out of seclusion, most of the people you are familiar with are basically there, and you won’t feel abandoned by the world.
"No wonder people always say there is a difference between immortals and mortals. It's not because immortals are really cold-blooded and don't want to interact with mortals."
"It's just that mortals have a limited lifespan and they are tired of separation, so they don't want to experience such a thing again."
After sighing, Lu Chen immediately looked at his game panel.
Because at the moment of defeating Fang Heng, Lu Chen immediately felt a lot of changes.
This change is not only reflected in game data, but also in other aspects.
[You defeated the Foundation Establishment Stage Dharma Corpse/Outer Dao Sword Demon·Fang Heng, you gained 5000 experience points, you gained Soul Crystal Fragments (green)*2, you gained Unknown Sword Intent*1]
[Number of Soul Crystal Fragments (Green): 3]
[Innate magical power (67/100): Not awakened]
[Current experience value: 6792]
Fang Heng, who was at the first level of the foundation building stage, had two thousand more experience points and one soul crystal fragment (green) than Ye Chenglin, who was at the first level of the foundation building stage.
Lu Chen speculated that this was because he had defeated not only Fang Heng, but also his spiritual sword Chiwei which was contaminated by the power of the outside world.
I think these extra experience points and soul crystal fragments were provided by Akao.
Therefore, although it seemed that he only defeated one dungeon boss, he actually defeated two.
It can be said that the harvest was fruitful.
And now the number of soul crystal fragments is enough for him to complete the awakening of his innate supernatural powers.
However, Lu Chen was not in a hurry to awaken his innate magical power because he was studying the 'unknown sword intent' that he had accidentally obtained.
【Unknown Sword Intention】
[Effect: After using it, you can have a special sword perception. It is recommended to use it after a certain sword skill reaches the "entry level" to avoid affecting your own swordsmanship.]
After breaking through the realm, one can enter the Dao? Through the description of the effect of the unknown sword intent, Lu Chen obtained an unexpected information.
He had been curious before, if "breaking through the realm" means that you have practiced a skill beyond the scope of "art".
What is above the realm of breakthrough? Now there is an answer to this question.
The next state after breaking through the realm is entering the Tao.
And this state can be understood literally.
“No wonder even though I cultivated Water Dragon Song to the point of breaking through, I still couldn’t cultivate the sword intent that sword cultivators talk about.”
"Breakthrough level is the limit of the technique, but not the limit of the Tao."
"Or in other words, breaking through the realm means the final step. As long as you can take one more step, you can completely peek into the realm of Tao."
"No wonder some sword cultivators cannot cultivate sword intent in their entire lives. This entry-level sword technique is not something that can be achieved by just spending time. It also requires amazing understanding and a bit of luck."
"That is, I can use experience points to improve my skills, and there will be no so-called bottleneck when upgrading my skills."
"Otherwise, I really don't know what kind of amazing person can take care of his cultivation while also elevating his own magic to a level of enlightenment."
"If you want to have your cake and eat it too, you really have to use a monster..."
"And now that the game suggests that I should comprehend the sword intent after entering the Dao, I should not waste time on the sword intent for the time being. Let me see what innate magical power I can awaken first."
Listen to advice and eat your fill.
Lu Chen didn't think the game's suggestion was groundless.
There must be a reason why it gives itself this advice.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen took out two soul crystal fragments (green)...
