Chapter 494 Murderous Intention

"So what kind of martial arts techniques are you good at?" the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons continued to ask.

"I'm not very good at it either," Chen Guan answered truthfully.

"So what are you good at?" The Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers felt like his brain wasn't quite working properly.

If she hadn't already tested it herself, she would have thought Chen Guan was just giving her the runaround.

But it seems that's really the case; otherwise, the degree of harmony between those artistic conceptions wouldn't be so low.

But to say that Chen Guan was not good at anything is hard to believe. How could someone without any expertise achieve such success?

"If I had to say what I'm good at, it's probably that I'm quite strong," Chen Guan said.

"Great strength? Great strength is considered a specialty? No matter how strong you are, can you be stronger than a giant mystic spirit?" The Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons was speechless.

This was the first time she had ever heard of a human being's specialty being great strength.

Even she, a spirit, wanted to complain to Chen Guan: "Don't you humans consider yourselves superior intelligent beings, and your proudest abilities are learning and using tools? And you, a human, tell me you're strong? What kind of nonsense is that?"

For a moment, the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers was at a loss for words. At this moment, she even began to doubt her own judgment. Was this person really suitable to be her host?

But then he thought again, and the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers felt that things were not so simple.

Chen Guan's strength is not fake; his ability to draw out the sword spirit back then was also genuine. He must have some special talent and ability.

"Besides your great strength, do you have any other special skills?" the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons asked patiently again.

“I am physically strong,” Chen Guan continued in his reply.

The point about having plenty of energy cannot be discussed here.

Now he is Zi Donglai, not Chen Guan. If he were to display the ability to generate inexhaustible energy here, it's hard to guarantee that others wouldn't make certain connections.

"Isn't being strong and being physically robust the same thing?" Wang Lian couldn't help but say from the side.

"Is it the same thing?" Chen Guan asked back.

Both the human and the secret god were speechless at Chen Guan's antics. The Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons felt that Chen Guan couldn't fully trust her, which was why he was being so perfunctory.

“If I want to help you achieve enlightenment, I must know what you are good at. Otherwise, how can I know in which direction to help you?” said the Lord of All Weapons.

“I am strong, so please help me in the direction of proving the Dao through strength,” Chen Guan said.

"I don't know how to do things that lack technical skill." Upon hearing this, the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons immediately activated and deactivated the Sword Heart Clarity. The Sword Heart Clarity, which had not yet truly come into play, was thus severed.

At this moment, the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers was very displeased. As the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers, she relied on skills. Chen Guan asked her to teach him how to prove the Dao with force. Wasn't that an insult to her?

"I hate things that lack any technical sophistication," the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers cursed inwardly.

The main reason was that she had been using Sword Heart Clarity, and although she hadn't completed the final and most crucial step, she was already severely exhausted and on the verge of collapse, which is why she stopped.

"Is this considered enlightenment?" Chen Guan asked the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons with a smile.

Without uttering a word, the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons returned directly to Wang Lian's body.

Wang Lian was also somewhat at a loss, not knowing what was going on.

"How are you feeling?" Wang Lian had no choice but to ask Chen Guan.

"It feels pretty good," Chen Guandian nodded.

"Did you realize anything?" Wang Lian asked cautiously, knowing that there must be something wrong with the Sword Master's Sword Heart Clarity. "I realized a little, but I don't know if it counts." Chen Guan said, adjusting his posture and trying to use the killing intent he had comprehended from the realm of the Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons.

If they were already familiar with each other, they wouldn't need to go through all this trouble. Right now, Chen Guan needs to use his body posture to arouse some killing intent.

After all, I've only just begun to grasp this concept, and it requires practice.

"What kind of nonsense can you possibly comprehend?" The Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons sulked inside Wang Lian's body. Even though Chen Guan was someone she had originally favored, she was now considering giving up on him.

But the next second, the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers was stunned, because she could actually sense a murderous aura emanating from Chen Guan.

By constantly adjusting his posture, Chen Guan gradually got the hang of it and his killing intent began to surface.

"Killing intent... he actually comprehended killing intent..." The Lord of Ten Thousand Weapons felt somewhat complicated.

Killing intent is the simplest yet most difficult state of mind to achieve. Just how simple is it?

To put it simply, even an ordinary person who has never practiced any techniques or cultivated themselves might, under certain special circumstances, comprehend killing intent.

Some veterans who have been through many battles can occasionally unleash their killing intent, even without any training.

However, killing intent is an extremely difficult state of mind to cultivate, and very few people can truly cultivate it to its highest level.

Whether it's sword intent, saber intent, or the intent of other weapons, it's all directed at a specific weapon.

Killing intent, however, is a universal state of mind. In any situation, as long as one has the intention to kill, killing intent can take effect.

There are two types of people who practice killing intent: one is a reckless novice, and the other is a terrifying pervert.

Therefore, when Bingzhu saw Chen Guan use killing intent, coupled with his clumsy posture, her first thought was that this person was useless.

Not everyone can cultivate killing intent to its peak, but the Master of War is one of the strongest who excels at it.

In her opinion, Chen Guan's performance could only be described as that of a novice.

However, as Chen Guan adjusted his posture, she noticed that the killing intent emanating from him was growing stronger.

This does not dispel the view in the mind of the military leader that the true manifestation of mature killing intent is not determined by the strength of killing intent at a particular moment.

Many ordinary people who have never practiced cultivation may display unimaginable killing intent at certain special moments, but these are only temporary and not sufficient as a standard of judgment.

Looking at Chen Guan, who exuded murderous intent, Wang Lian felt a sense of fear and took a half step back, her eyes filled with panic.

Seeing that Wang Lian seemed frightened, Chen Guan restrained his killing intent to prevent it from being revealed, and then looked at Wang Lian and smiled, "Did I scare you? It seems my training is not up to par yet."

"It's already very good, the artistic conception is very strong, even I was moved by it," Wang Lian said quickly.

At this moment, the Lord of Ten Thousand Soldiers was somewhat shocked.

Chen Guan was able to control his killing intent at will, which was already a sign that he had entered the superior level of killing intent.

Once a person is aroused with murderous intent, they can only vent it through killing and have no way to control it on their own.

Such murderous intent is ultimately just a demon that blinds humanity; it cannot be called artistic conception at all.

Some people practice their whole lives but still can't control their killing intent. If they can't vent their anger through killing, their killing intent might even backfire on them.

Chen Guan's killing intent was clearly newly formed and still needed to be triggered by his physical posture, yet he was able to control it at will, which was quite astonishing.

It's like a young person who has just finished nine years of compulsory education suddenly creating controlled nuclear fusion—it's simply unbelievable.
