Liver into a martial arts legend: starting with Embroidered Spring Blade

Chapter 152 The Second Step to the Artistic Conception – Heavenly Blade! [Second Update, Please Subscribe]

boom!
Inside an inn in Dengfeng County, a magnificent and awe-inspiring aura soared into the sky, reaching straight into the clouds, giving people a sense of awe and wonder.

Some martial arts practitioners who were still in Dengfeng were alarmed and turned around, their faces turning pale with shock.

"What a powerful force!"

"This is... artistic conception?!"

"That's the Dengfeng Grand Inn over there. That 'Overlord Blade' from the Embroidered Uniform Guard is still staying there. Could it be...?"

"Hiss... Could it be that that lord has grasped another realm of artistic conception?"

"A genius beyond compare! A true genius!"

On Mount Song, Yue Buqun, Feng Qingyang, and others who were still handling the affairs of the Five Sacred Mountains Sect on Mount Taishi, along with many renowned monks from Mount Shaoshi, also sensed this powerful force that seemed to pierce the heavens. They were immediately astonished and deeply shaken.

"Neither sword nor knife, what kind of artistic conception is this?"

Feng Qingyang murmured to himself as he stood atop the mountain, gazing towards Dengfeng County.

In the dim light, he seemed to see that terrifying aura that stirred up the heavens and the earth, like a long spear that pierced the sky, as if it were about to pierce the blazing sun.

"Arrow intent? Or spear intent?"

In the martial arts world, the most common artistic conception is the intent of the knife or the intent of the sword.

However, those who can reach this level in external martial arts are all exceptionally talented or have great perseverance; they are extremely rare.

Therefore, almost without hesitation, Feng Qingyang had already concluded that it must be Jiang Xuan who had comprehended this power of artistic conception.

However, he still did not expect that Jiang Xuan had already mastered two kinds of intent power, and now he had actually comprehended a third kind of intent.
How exactly did this guy cultivate?
Does his martial arts path not have any limitations or bottlenecks?!

On Shaoshi Mountain, several old monks came out together and stood on the mountaintop, gazing in the direction of Dengfeng County, remaining silent for a long time.

"The imperial court has truly produced an extraordinary figure!"

An old monk with a full head of white hair and a flowing white beard sighed. He was Du'e, one of the "Three Monks of Shaolin", and his seniority was even higher than the four great monks of "Sight, Hearing, Wisdom and Nature".

Half a month ago, the Imperial Guards bombarded Shaoshi Mountain, which alarmed him. He came out of seclusion with his junior brothers Du Jie and Du Nan to find out the reason for the incident.

At the same time, I also learned about some major events that have happened in the martial arts world over the past few years.

The one who naturally attracted their most attention was Jiang Xuan, the young commander of the Imperial Guard.

"Generally speaking, being able to comprehend the essence of a concept at the Grandmaster level is already considered a genius, and there are only a few such people in a generation."

"But this person is not even thirty years old yet, and he has already mastered three kinds of power of intent. It's truly something I've never seen before!"

Master Du Nan spoke, his expression solemn.

"To be able to comprehend the essence at such a young age, one's future is immeasurable!"

"Such as the Nameless One, Dugu Jian, Shangguan Jin Hong, Li Xunhuan, Yan Nantian, and the Ziyang Master and Mu Daoren of Wudang, all of them were renowned figures at the pinnacle of the martial arts world!"

Master Dujie said in a deep voice, "This child's future achievements will probably surpass those of these people."

"But now, this boy has become an enemy of Shaolin. If he is allowed to grow up, I fear that Shaolin will never have peace!"

"A time of great turmoil!"

Master Du'e shook his head and said, "The court is currently in a strong position, but if things are taken to extremes, the relationship will inevitably end sooner or later. We don't need to worry too much."

"Inform Kong Wen and the others that they should try not to get involved in conflicts in the martial arts world in the future."

"Once this turmoil passes, Shaolin will still stand at the pinnacle of the martial arts world, and no one will be able to shake it."

The old monks all nodded in unison.

at the same time.

It is located in Song County, on the other side of Mount Song.

A long-haired young man carrying a longbow on his back was also looking up in the direction of Dengfeng.

On its back lay a purple-gold longbow, which was trembling slightly, as if it were excited to meet a kindred spirit, its fighting spirit soaring.

"Arrow Shadow, what's wrong?" A young man in brocade robes walked over and asked with a frown.

"Little Lord!"

Arrow Shadow turned around and said calmly, "It's nothing, just taking a look around."

The young man followed his gaze, his eyes flickering thoughtfully.

……

In the courtyard of the Dengfeng Inn.

Jiang Xuan stood holding a bow, his eyes slightly closed.

In my mind, a strange, chaotic world reappeared.

However, unlike the Sword Realm and Blade Realm before, this brand-new 'Arrow Realm' that I am encountering for the first time has very few mountains formed by arrow intent, only a handful of them.

Among them, the highest mountain peak standing in the center of the 'Arrow Realm' is the most magnificent and dazzling.

Just one glance was enough to make Jiang Xuan's consciousness tremble.

In the dim light, he seemed to see a tall and imposing figure, drawing his bow and shooting down the sun.

Nine arrows were fired simultaneously, and nine of them disappeared in an instant during the ten days.

"Hou Yi, the God of Archery?"

Jiang Xuan murmured, as if he had suddenly realized something.

This time, his understanding of the arrow's intent didn't last long. After the 'Arrow Realm' space condensed into his own 'Arrow Mountain,' his consciousness returned to his physical body.

Jiang Xuan looked at the system panel again.

[Martial Arts: Overlord Blade Intent (Mindset), Berserker Sword Intent (Mindset), Archery Intent (Mindset)]

[Progress: 100%]

As expected, the third artistic conception has also appeared on the artistic conception panel, sharing the progress with the sword and blade artistic conception.

Furthermore, the progress of one realm of artistic conception directly increased by 30%, and the progress of artistic conception has now reached its maximum. [Hint: With the progress at its maximum, all 'Mental State' artistic conceptions can be merged for a comprehensive deduction. Begin fusion deduction?]

Jiang Xuan took a deep breath and calmly confirmed.

The next second, the familiar feeling returned.

Jiang Xuan felt as if his consciousness had split into three, appearing simultaneously within the 'Knife Realm,' 'Sword Realm,' and 'Arrow Realm.' Countless fragments of artistic conception flashed through his consciousness space like a fleeting glimpse, 'replaying' the three artistic conception peaks, making them even more condensed.

Just as Jiang Xuan was wondering how this fusion would proceed, the system notification reappeared:

Please choose one main theme for your interpretation, and then integrate the others.

What do you mean?
Jiang Xuan was puzzled, but quickly understood.

Does one artistic conception need to be the primary one, with other artistic conceptions as secondary, in order to conduct deduction and integration?

After a moment's hesitation, Jiang Xuan quickly made his choice: "I choose 'Overlord Blade Intent'!"

The first thing he learned was swordsmanship, and the first state of mind he grasped was the intent of the sword.

Therefore, Jiang Xuan still prefers to use a knife.

Rumble~
The moment Jiang Xuan made his choice, the 'Three Realms' trembled.

Three fragments of artistic conception flashed rapidly in my mind, eventually slowly connecting and merging with each other, condensing into the main trunk of 'artistic conception', which then branched out into two.

It primarily uses the essence of the Overlord Blade, supplemented by the essence of the Mad Sword and the essence of the Bow and Arrow.

At the same time, two mountain peaks within the 'Sword Realm' and 'Arrow Realm' suddenly began to shatter.

Within the 'Blade Realm,' the Blade Mountain belonging to Jiang Xuan suddenly began to grow and rise infinitely out of thin air.

In just a moment, this 'mountain of knives' grew more than ten times larger, becoming even more majestic and condensed, reaching straight into the sky and overlooking the 'realm of knives'.

Like a celestial sword, standing tall between heaven and earth!

The second step in achieving the desired artistic conception has finally been accomplished!

[Deduction successful. Please name the martial arts concept.]

A system prompt appears.

"Let's call it 'Overlord's Spirit'," Jiang Xuan said without hesitation.

Although it is based on the Domineering Blade Intent, this new Intent Power is not just a simple Blade Intent, but a fusion of Blade, Sword, and Arrow Intents, with Blade Intent as the main one and Sword Intent and Arrow Intent as secondary.

Furthermore, although the two realm peaks belonging to him within the 'Sword Realm' and 'Arrow Realm' have been shattered, Jiang Xuan could still sense that his consciousness could freely enter and exit the two realms.

This means that the shattering of the mountain peaks of artistic conception is not the end.

In the future, he can still enhance the peak of the sword realm by comprehending sword intent and arrow intent.

This is equivalent to adding two more ways to enhance the artistic conception on the basis of the way of the sword.

Martial Arts: Overlord's Intent (Boundless)

[Progress: 0%]

In a flash, the system panel changed.

The second step in creating the artistic conception is identified by the system as 'Boundless Realm'.

It can also be called 'Heavenly Realm'!
The state of mind and the state of heaven—these are the first two steps to achieving artistic conception.

The moment the 'Overlord's Realm' took shape, it naturally appeared in Jiang Xuan's mind.

Some people in the martial arts world directly use this imagery as their title.

People like Wuming, the "Heavenly Sword," and Song Que, the "Heavenly Blade," should be powerful practitioners at this level.

Now, he focuses on the way of the sword and has stepped into the second stage of the realm of intent, which can also be called 'Heavenly Sword'.

This is a power and insight that transcends mere state of mind.

A state of mind arises from the heart, and ultimately, it is a power that belongs to oneself.

But the Heavenly Realm already derives its power from this world.

He suddenly opened his eyes.

Jiang Xuan looked at his palm and activated the Overlord Intent.

In an instant, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth surged, and the power of the artistic conception directly fed back into this world, spreading an overbearing aura.

Immediately afterwards, an invisible blade gradually condensed in Jiang Xuan's hand. Although it could not be seen, it could be clearly felt.

Jiang Xuan held his knife and slashed out with a backhand stroke. Instantly, a gust of wind howled, and a jujube tree in the courtyard was split straight in two and collapsed with a crash.

Even the ground itself has developed a bottomless crack.

Jiang Xuan was amazed.

This is purely the power of artistic conception; without using any true energy, it can still cause such strong destructive power.

If you add true energy, its power will be even stronger!
With a slight shift in his mind, the invisible blade in his hand gradually transformed back into a three-foot-long green sword, its sharpness fully revealed.

hum!
With a single thrust of the sword, the void trembled, and the violent power caused the surroundings to buzz, with invisible ripples spreading with the wind.

With just this one sword, one can easily slaughter an ordinary grandmaster!

Jiang Xuan assumed a bow-drawing posture, and the three-foot-long sword in his palm transformed once again into an invisible longbow. As the bowstring was drawn, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth spontaneously condensed into an invisible arrow on the bowstring, which was extremely sharp.

boom!
Jiang Xuan released his grip, and the invisible arrow shot through the air, exploding in the sky like a thunderbolt, shaking the heavens!

Three forces constantly shifted and changed in the palm of the hand.

Feeling the destructive power in his palm, Jiang Xuan was excited and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Previously, he needed to use external weapons such as the Red Cannon and exert all his strength to contend with the Grandmaster.

But at this moment, the power of the 'Heavenly Realm' has already given him the initial confidence to conquer Grandmasters beyond his level.

This is the qualitative change brought about by the enhancement of artistic conception!
