Similar in completion of skin refining, but the strength of the skin membrane could vary greatly.

“Skin refining is also graded, not everyone who completes it will have the same result.”

This was the difference brought on by their martial arts aptitude.

After completing skin refining, Shi’er’s strength had increased.

Li Xuan then imparted the technique of bone refining to him.

According to Xu Yan, his father had started refining his bones, and his mother had just finished refining her skin. This showed him the disparity in martial arts aptitude and the varying results of cultivation.

Pharmacist Pan had also entered the stage of bone refining.

The rest of the faithful guards, a small portion had entered the stage of bone refining, and a portion had completed the skin refining.

This was all thanks to Pharmacist Pan, who had concocted medicinal supplements to aid in cultivation.

As for Guo Rongshan, because of his old age and declining vitality, he had missed the optimal stage for cultivation and had barely entered skin refining with the help of precious medicines.

Guo Yunkai, on the other hand, had better talent. He had completed skin refining and was about to start bone refining.

His two cousins, one had completed skin refining and the other had started bone refining.

“We are still far from the entrance of martial arts. It’ll be a while before we can verify and see what feedback is received.”

Li Xuan sighed to himself.

Among them, there should be people stuck at the entrance of martial arts.

He noticed that the enhancing medicine for vitality concocted by Pharmacist Pan had a good effect in aiding cultivation.

“Should I get some elixirs out? How do I formulate elixirs? I don’t understand it.”

Li Xuan fell into deep thought.

“The young girl from the Mother Goddess Sect is skilled in medicine, maybe I can start with her and attempt to comprehend something.”

Li Xuan again recalled the current Mother Goddess of the Mother Goddess Sect, that young girl.

The evil people she had persuaded actually stopped their evil deeds completely, truly a remarkable feat.

Last time, he sent Shi’er to pass a message, inviting the Mother Goddess girl to come over, but she was still in Wu Country and hadn’t come to Qi Country yet.

“No rush, Meng Chong hasn’t entered the door yet, the third disciple needs more consideration.”

Li Xuan temporarily set this matter aside.

Since Xu Yan went out yesterday and didn’t return at night, it seemed he had made some progress. He should be close to complete comprehension of Sword Intent now!

He was full of anticipation.

Outside the town of Yunshan, on a hillside.

Xu Yan sat cross-legged, silently watching the evening glow in the sky.

He was not looking at the sword marks in the forest anymore, but had erased all of them instead.

At the moment, he was looking at the evening glow in the sky, his mind clear. In his mind, the sword moves were evolving continuously.

The sword technique his master taught him had already been forgotten completely.

Now, a new set of sword techniques was about to take shape in his mind.

His mood was increasingly clear, as if he had understood all the sword techniques, all the sword moves.

At a certain moment, it seemed as if a bright light flashed in his mind.

The evolving sword technique was completed!

And at that moment, he entered a mysterious state.

His heart was incredibly clear.

Hum!

The treasure sword on his knees, it started to tremble at this moment.

It seemed eager to leave its sheath.

Sword Intent was clear!

Xu Yan understood Sword Intent clearly!

The moment he completely comprehended Sword Intent, the gate to Sword Dao was already opened.

In his heart, he has a set of sword techniques and traces of Sword Dao.

He had already freed himself from the fetter of the sword technique.

Even the Descending Dragon Palm had a new insight, as a result, it had been upgraded.

The second layer of Descending Dragon Palm had reached a minor completion!

Xu Yan opened his eyes. He flicked the treasure sword on his knees with his hand, and with a clear sound, the sword left its sheath.

He grasped the handle and swung the sword forward with a lift of his hand.

The light of the sword was like a long rainbow, cutting through midway and landing a hundred feet away.

Where the sword light fell, there was no sound.

If one took a closer look, they would see a small crevice on the ground, extending dozens of feet with an unknown depth!

“Today, my Sword Intent has become clear, I, Xu Yan, have finally stepped into the door of Sword Dao. You will be named Clear Sword!”

Xu Yan said as he gently stroked the sword blade with his two middle fingers.

Clear Sword!

This was his first sword and also the one witnessing his stepping into the gate of Sword Dao!

“I have comprehended Sword Intent and entered the door of Sword Dao. Next, my vitality will be perfected and I will break through the Innate Realm!”

A look of excitement appeared on Xu Yan’s face.

If he had comprehended Sword Intent and entered the door of Sword Dao earlier, how could Xu Wu Xin have been his opponent?

“Inner Domain!”

Xu Yan looked in the direction of the endless mountains.

His heart surged with excitement. There were martial artists in the Inner Domain, and the Inner Domain Martial Arts world, a place he had long yearned for.

He had long wanted to venture into the martial arts world.

“Wait a little longer, after reaching the Innate Realm, I will head to the Inner Domain!”

His parents’ strength had not yet increased, and he himself had not yet broken through to the Innate Realm.

Therefore, he could only suppress his excitement.

In the small courtyard.

As always, Li Xuan sat in his chair, but in his mind, he was sorting out the martial arts he had created.

Especially the methods of subsequent martial arts, how to compose them, how to perfect them.

He had already determined the realm after the Innate Realm.

The direction of his cultivation was also fixed, but the martial arts realm and cultivation direction in the future needed an outline.

“My martial arts, from the beginning, is stronger than the martial arts of this world, so the subsequent martial arts realm should become increasingly strong.

“There must be smooth transitions between the realms. If there is a discontinuity, and the theory cannot be connected, then it is definitely not possible to comprehend it.”

After days of repeated thinking and pondering, Li Xuan had essentially sorted out the direction of his subsequent martial arts cultivation.

However, he still needed to progress step by step.

Only by successfully cultivating it could he confirm its feasibility and continue to perfect the next realm.

“Meng Chong’s Golden Bones have reached perfection, stuck at the Golden Bones stage, unable to refine the Vajra Glazed Bones, it’s time to try to help my second disciple successfully refine Vajra Glazed Bones.”

Li Xuan glanced at Meng Chong, who was still immersed in hard cultivation.

Once the Vajra Glazed Bones were formed, he could break through to the Qi Blood Realm.

After all, his cultivation was a combination of refining the skin, bones, and organs.

Suddenly, golden light emerged.

“Your disciple Xu Yan has enlightened the Sword Heart, stepping into the Gate of Sword Dao, your Sword Heart is fully enlightened, and Sword Dao is perfected!”

At this moment, Li Xuan felt his Sword Heart clear and shining with thousands of swords, and his comprehension of Sword Dao kept emerging.

His Sword Dao was perfected, but it could only be regarded as the perfect foundation of Sword Dao!

Li Xuan was overjoyed.

“My disciple has the bearing of a Sword God, as a master, I did not misjudge him!”

Good job Xu Yan! As expected, he enlightened his Sword Heart and stepped through the Gate of Sword Dao.

The improvement of his Sword Dao from now on will depend on himself.

However, Li Xuan believed that once Xu Yan went to the Inner Domain, he would not worry about the improvement of his Sword Dao.

And when his disciple improved his Sword Dao, his own Sword Dao would greatly improve as well!

“After the enlightenment of Sword Heart, I should pass on the understanding of Sword Dao to Xu Yan, in hope that he will comprehend Sword Intent as soon as possible!”

Li Xuan thought with great delight.

“Your disciple Xu Yan, the second layer of Descending Dragon Palm has achieved minor success, and your second layer of Descending Dragon Palm has reached perfection!”

Another gain.

The second layer of Descending Dragon Palm was perfected.

Having enlightened his Sword Heart, Xu Yan’s comprehension of the Descending Dragon Palm also improved.

This was as expected.

This showed that Xu Yan’s talent and comprehension had improved with the enlightenment of the Sword Heart.

Li Xuan lifted his finger, and a Sword Qi appeared.

With a point of his finger, the Sword Qi flew into the sky, silent, unexpected, and without a trace of sharpness that could be detected.

In the sky, a Sword Qi weaved around.

“The Sword Dao I created is indeed powerful.”

Li Xuan was thrilled.

“Should be much stronger than the Swordsmanship of the Inner Domain, right?”

How strong the Sword Dao was in the Inner Domain Martial Arts world was still unknown.

However, it could be roughly inferred that they were still at the strong Swordsmanship stage, not yet reaching the Sword Dao level, naturally it could not compete with the Sword Dao he created.

The Swordsmanship of the martial artists of the Inner Domain, in the eyes of those who had enlightened the Sword Heart, could see through their flaws and the reality at a glance, and could easily use their sword techniques for themselves.

“With my current strength, even a Great Grandmaster can be defeated by one of my swords!”

Li Xuan flicked his finger, and the Sword Qi disappeared in mid-air.

His strength had greatly improved again, and even the Great Grandmaster of the Inner Domain would not be his opponent now.

Now, he felt completely secure.

He didn’t need to worry about the strong people in the Inner Domain posing a threat to him.

“Master, I’m back!”

Xu Yan came back excitedly.

“Good! Good! Good!”

Li Xuan was greatly relieved and said, “My disciple has the bearing of a Sword God, truly he did not disappoint his master!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Yan’s spirit was immediately lifted, and his whole person seemed to have transformed.

“Master said I have the bearing of a Sword God!”

Slapping his chest, he said: “Master, I will definitely carry forward your Sword Dao. As your disciple, I will not let you down, I must become the Sword God!”

“Good! With this ambition, I believe you can do it!

Li Xuan was overjoyed. His disciple was sure to become a Sword God in the future, and as for him…. He could already wear the title of Ancestor of Sword Dao!
