I picked up the scattered attributes

"Swords and knives... how can they be such inconvenient things!"

What was originally an incredibly difficult operation was accomplished with ease under the power of the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique. The moment the bamboo knife was about to strike his head, Feng Xia's eyes suddenly snapped open.

And deep within his pupils, a blue lotus was slowly rotating.

The lotus petals of the blue lotus are sharp and piercing, like one sharp sword after another, as if they will shoot out from his eyes at any moment and pierce through everything in the world!

"You...what..."

But in the very next instant...

The lotus petals of the blue lotus suddenly changed, becoming more rugged and heavy, filled with an incomparably domineering, earth-shattering, and unyielding heroic spirit!

"Knife Heart!"

Feng Xia calmly uttered two words, his face expressionless, and transformed his palm into a blade, slashing towards Jiang An.

Click!

In an instant, Jiang An's bamboo knife shattered into pieces, and an unparalleled blade of light surged upwards, destroying his magical power. Then, its momentum did not diminish, heading straight for his brow!

"Knife Heart... Impossible!!"

Jiang An froze on the spot, feeling as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, and a sense of utter despair welled up in his heart.

The blade flashed brilliantly, seemingly possessing a natural pressure that suppressed all his swordsmanship!

"Huh, it seems like it worked?"

At the critical moment.

Feng Xia's hand suddenly paused, stopping in front of Jiang An's forehead.

Jiang An collapsed to the ground with a thud, gasping for breath. His pale face was filled with the horror of surviving a close call.

If Fuuka had been even a little slower...

He might be instantly annihilated by the sword's intent!

"You...you were just now..."

Everything happened so fast that only now did the teacher snap out of his daze, using his pointer to lift Jiang An and bring him to safety.

Then, he looked Feng Xia up and down with the eyes of someone looking at a monster:

"You just... comprehended the Heart of the Blade?"

"more or less."

Feng Xia nodded noncommittally, but gradually, his brows furrowed again. The schoolteacher asked in a low voice, "What problem have you encountered this time?"

"Well... I'm looking for my Kenshin. It seems like my Kenshin is missing..."

……

Chapter 0104

Fengxia's consistent principle is...

Just try it.

The result of this attempt was quite gratifying. Despite never having practiced with a sword before, he successfully comprehended the sword's essence, a great achievement that countless sword practitioners dream of!

However, there is still a small flaw, and there is a slight difference from what was expected.

—The heart of the blade has been forged, but the heart of the sword has vanished…

Where did his swordsmanship go? Such a big swordsmanship, has anyone seen it?

"Oh no... I understand!"

Fortunately, after the initial confusion, Feng Xia finally slapped his palm and realized the key to the problem: "This kind of sword heart is still subtly different from the sword heart that is directly comprehended. It is transformed from my sword heart. The two are two sides of the same coin and cannot exist at the same time."

He activated the Floating Dream Three Lives Technique once again.

Soon, the energy belonging to the blade heart weakened, and the vanished sword heart reappeared, radiating a dazzling immortal brilliance!

The blade's heart is concealed, the sword's heart emerges!

Feng Xia tried it again.

The sword's heart is contained, the blade's heart emerges!

The blade's heart is concealed, the sword's heart emerges!

Sword heart, sword heart, sword heart, sword heart...

After several attempts, Feng Xia quickly mastered the knack of switching between the two, and he even had some leeway in converting them into a 4/4 time signature...

"This...this is truly...a miracle!"

Everyone stared blankly at the scene, their eyes filled with profound shock.

Even the schoolteacher, who considered himself well-informed, couldn't help but feel incredulous at Feng Xia's actions.

"How...how did you do that?"

He could tell, of course, that Feng Xia had transformed his sword heart into a blade heart, and then transformed it back into a blade heart.

The ways of swords and sabers are interconnected.

Of course, anyone can say such polite words, but among the millions of supernatural beings, probably only one or two can truly master them.

Not to mention, everything Feng Xia just did was far more than just a simple integration!

"Huh? It's just that I altered my memories, lying to myself that a knife is a sword, and a sword is a knife, and then my sword heart automatically became my knife heart..."

Feng Xia scratched his head and pondered for a long time before finally coming up with a vague idea.

The schoolteacher was stunned again: "Modifying memories... is it that simple?"

"It's that simple." Feng Xia said matter-of-factly.

“If it were really that simple, it's impossible that no one has ever discovered it.” The schoolteacher couldn't help but shake his head. “Whether you're a sword cultivator or a saber cultivator, in the process of daily practice, you will continuously deepen your impression and understanding of swords and sabers, eventually forming an instinct engraved in your soul. If it's just about modifying memories, it will only cause confusion in your understanding, affecting your Dao heart as well. More likely, it will cause your saber heart and sword heart to collapse as a result…”

If altering memories were so easy, countless experts and powerful figures would have already succeeded over the past many years.

Where would a young man like Feng Xia be qualified to do this?

Does this kid even realize how outrageous his actions are...? The schoolteacher looked unusually conflicted. Just then, he noticed Feng Xia scratching his head, revealing a simple and honest smile:

"But sir... I'm not a swordsman either. I've only been practicing with a sword for less than half a month at most, and I learned swordsmanship just from someone else..."

"……What?"

You've already reached the Great Perfection of Sword Heart, yet you're telling me you're not a sword cultivator and haven't even touched a sword for very long.

The schoolteacher swallowed hard, his lips twitching as he cautiously probed, "So, kid... are you a sword cultivator?"

As a sword cultivator, he unexpectedly comprehended the sword heart, so he tried every means to transform the sword heart into the sword heart... Although this explanation is still quite far-fetched, it is barely acceptable.

"A swordsman? That's even more impossible."

Feng Xia shook his head with amusement: "I haven't even touched a sword for more than a few days, so where would I find the time to practice swordsmanship?"

The schoolteacher's mouth dropped open in astonishment.

He stared unblinkingly at Feng Xia, as if above his head there was a symbol that no one could see, slowly coalescing, appearing, and then shattering.

How did a young man who was neither a swordsman nor a saber cultivator achieve such a great accomplishment that countless predecessors could never reach?

"Perhaps this child also possesses a special physique?"

Finally, the schoolteacher thought of a possibility: "Stronger than the Star River Spirit Body, far surpassing ordinary spirit bodies, born holy, and close to the Dao, he can learn and comprehend any kind of supernatural power or technique in an instant... He's practically a holy spirit born for cultivation! Since this kind of physique has never appeared before, let's just call it the Holy Spirit Body..."

Feng Xia was unaware of the teacher's thoughts; however, after completing the transformation of his swordsmanship, new ideas inevitably arose within him:

Knife cultivators have a knife heart, sword cultivators have a sword heart...

What about those who cultivate other weapons?

The heart of a stick, the heart of a hammer, the heart of Akai?

Palms of the hands, soles of the feet, Ashina Isshin?

"If every weapon had to have some kind of 'heart,' that would be too much trouble. What was the person who first proposed this idea thinking...? No, maybe that creator didn't even think that far ahead..."

Feng Xia couldn't help but shake his head.

As a newcomer, he stands on the shoulders of giants, which allows him to see things more clearly and further.

However, those original creators started from scratch and created everything that followed. The difference between the two is so great that it is beyond measure!

He composed himself and stopped letting his mind wander.

In any case, now that he has grasped the essence of the sword, he might be able to go back to the butcher shop after leaving this place and try to subdue the murderous sword left behind by Tu Kuo.

He wasn't in a great hurry at first, even though the threat from the Xuanwu court was still there, it wasn't far from fatal. However, after listening to the teacher talk about the situation of the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom, he felt a sense of urgency.

Even a powerful nation like the Heavenly Pattern Divine Kingdom is teetering on the brink of collapse under the relentless pressure of a formidable enemy...

He may seem to be the number one person in Xuanwu now, but frankly speaking, he's just the tallest among the short.

"If I could obtain that sword, my overall combat strength would increase significantly. Even if I didn't recover to the Yuan Dan realm, I would still be able to fight against someone in the Yuan Dan realm..."

Unfortunately, the design of the butcher knife isn't very appealing.

"You, and you too."
