Chapter 46 Comprehending the Sword Dao Through Observation of the Image, Sword Intent Merges with the Heavens (Please continue reading, please vote with monthly tickets)

"God's intention!"

Zhou Qing took out the Divine Intent of Sword Dao.

During these five days, he was not idle. He used the divine will to cultivate, but the sword intent displayed on the panel was still not at the entry level.

Transforming the power of momentum into a state of mind is not an easy task.

Even with the aid of divine will in cultivation, the transformation cannot be completed in five days. Moreover, with Zhou Qing's mental strength, he can only cultivate for one hour each day with the help of divine will before his mental will reaches its limit.

"Now that I have broken through to the Innate Realm, I can use the remaining Dao Source Points to enhance my sword intent."

Zhou Qing thought to himself.

soon.

It was midnight.

A new day dawns, and the Dao Source Point is refreshed.

"Enhance your sword intent!"

Zhou Qing immediately channeled this Dao Source Point into his sword intent.

hum~~
In an instant, Zhou Qing's consciousness entered a mysterious space, and images of comprehending divine intentions flooded his mind like movie clips.

[You have broken through to the Innate Realm, but due to the lack of innate cultivation techniques, your absorption of spiritual energy is slow. Therefore, you plan to first master the power of intent. You possess the Divine Intent of Sword Dao and diligently study it day and night.]

After a year of arduous training, you have successfully transformed your sword intent into a seed of sword spirit.

Mastering the Artistic Conception: Seed of Sword Intent (45%)

Zhou Qing looked at the panel.

He not only transformed his sword stance into a seed of sword intent, but the progress shown later also reached 45%.

"This……"

Zhou Qing's face lit up with joy.

This means that if he finds a new divine intention, he can quickly master the corresponding power of intent through 'ascetic practice'.

But this is understandable.

The nature of divine intent is actually quite similar to that of cultivation techniques.

Having a cultivation technique and practicing diligently for a year is naturally different from not having one, and the same applies to having divine will.

Close the panel.

Zhou Qing's consciousness entered the ancestral aperture between his eyebrows and saw a small sword radiating endless sharpness condensing within it.

This small sword is the seed of sword intent.

The power of momentum is formless and intangible; it is actually the manifestation of the power of the mind. It cannot interfere with reality, but if it transforms into a state of mind, it will condense into substance.

The power of artistic conception is divided into four stages.

These four stages are: the seed of artistic conception, the embryonic form of artistic conception, the fusion of artistic conception with the heavens, and the transformation of artistic conception into a domain.

In the seed stage and the embryonic stage of artistic conception, the power of artistic conception is in an unstable state. Once the mind and will are damaged, the seed and embryonic stage of artistic conception that have been condensed will be destroyed and collapse. Moreover, it can only initially interfere with reality. Compared to picking up a piece of paper or a small pebble, it can increase the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to a certain extent.

When one reaches the stage of "Merging with Heaven's Intent," the power of intent will be completely solidified and manifested, increasing the speed at which one absorbs the spiritual energy of heaven and earth by more than ten times.

Furthermore, using the power of the Fusion Heaven stage in battle can also draw upon the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, unleashing several times the power.

Some grandmasters who have just entered the Innate Realm have only mastered the power of intent in its rudimentary stage. Without the assistance of divine intent in their cultivation, it will take them more than ten or even several decades to reach the stage of intent merging with the heavens.

As for the Realm of Intent Transformation stage, then one has the ability to imprint the power of intent onto special materials, creating divine intent. Many of the seventy-two Grandmasters on the Earth Ranking are at the Realm of Intent Fusion stage, not yet at the Realm of Intent Transformation stage.

Now, Zhou Qing has comprehended the divine will and, after a year of arduous cultivation, has successfully reached the seed stage of the conception, with a progress rate of 45%.

According to this progress.

If you continue to cultivate diligently for two more years, you will be able to transform the seed of sword intent into the prototype of sword intent.

"The cultivation method of the Innate Realm, the Divine Intent."

Zhou Qing's next goal is to first obtain the Innate Realm cultivation technique. With the Innate Realm technique, he can quickly improve his cultivation level. Then, he needs to obtain a new Divine Intent. With the Divine Intent, he can quickly cultivate the power of intent, enhance his combat strength, and also increase the speed at which he can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

The Innate Realm cultivation techniques and divine will are what he urgently needs right now.

However, these two items are much harder to obtain than top-tier internal skills. The recently concluded Yuanzhou Four Seas Auction only auctioned three Divine Intents.

Furthermore, the duration of these three divine intentions was only one year.

The spiritual treasures of heaven and earth, divine will, blessed lands and grotto-heavens—these important cultivation resources are all controlled by the top powers.

For ordinary martial artists, obtaining it is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Even a glimpse of these top-tier forces peeking out from between their fingers is enough to make even the most powerful forces capable of dominating a province fight tooth and nail for them.

Zhou Qing knew that although he had broken through to the Innate Realm, his strength was still far from enough to seize cultivation resources from these top forces.

There is really no way.

If you can't beat it, join.

Two days later, Zhou Qing successfully transformed the seed of sword intent into a rudimentary form of sword intent.

He continued his arduous practice, seeking to comprehend the divine intent of swordsmanship.

In the blink of an eye, another half month has passed.

[After fifteen years of arduous training, you have persevered tirelessly, day and night comprehending the divine intent of the sword path, transforming the nascent sword intent into a complete one, reaching the stage of sword intent merging with the heavens.]

Mastering the Artistic Conception: Sword Intent Merges with Heaven (1%)

After the initial form of sword intent reached the stage of sword intent merging with the heavens, Zhou Qing clearly felt that even when comprehending the divine intent, the speed of improvement had slowed down considerably, because the intent in the divine intent was the stage of intent merging with the heavens.

However, the range of spiritual energy he could absorb from heaven and earth increased by more than ten times.

Originally, it could only absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of 100 meters, but now it can absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth within a radius of more than 1,000 meters.

Another day has passed.

After a year of arduous practice, Zhou Qing mastered the lion seal within the character "者" in the Nine-Character Mantra. With this seal, he could recover unless he suffered a fatal injury.

Zhou Qing immediately ended his 'ascetic practice'.

He disguised himself as a refined young gentleman and went straight to the Fengmanlou in the nearest prefecture city. Without beating around the bush, he got to the point: "I want to know information about the innate level of the Hunyuan True Skill."

"Understood, please wait a moment, esteemed guest."

Upon hearing this, the servants of Fengmanlou immediately withdrew respectfully to search for information about the innate level of the Hunyuan True Skill for Zhou Qing.

Zhou Qing sat in the private room, sipping fragrant tea, waiting for the Feng Man Lou waiter to return.

He pondered to himself that although innate-level cultivation techniques were extremely precious and difficult to obtain, the Hunyuan True Technique, being an ancient technique, required a great deal of resources, and not many people cultivated it at present.

Therefore, even if some top forces possess ancient cultivation techniques, they are often left to gather dust in a corner.

In comparison, acquiring the Primordial Chaos True Skill at the Innate level is definitely easier than acquiring ordinary Innate skills.
