Sitting beside the woman dressed in white, even without her making any provocative moves, Xu Yan found his heartbeat slowly quickening.

His blood was boiling, a restlessness growing within him.

In this moment, his heart filled with sternness.

“I must not underestimate the people of this world. This woman’s seductive art is heavenly and her strength is far from weak. I, being of a youthful age, am the most prone to impulsiveness due to desire.

“She has somewhat disrupted my heart, my state of mind is still not strong enough after all.

“No wonder my master said, ‘A heart devoid of women, cultivates as if divine.’ I am still far from this profound realm.”

Xu Yan took a deep breath, silently bringing himself to calm. Nonetheless, the subtle fragrance emanating from the woman dressed in white, that natural, intangible allure that constantly enticed the soul, seemed to have already enveloped him.

Thus, causing his heart to become increasingly restless.

“Such formidable enchantment, it is already stirring my heart. Should this woman actually strike, could I maintain self-control?”

Xu Yan was shocked within.

He cast a glance at the woman dressed in white, her bright eyes sparkling like stars. As she sat beside him, her delicate feet gently kicking the water, without any unnecessary body movement.

He couldn’t even make out her full features, yet he felt the restlessness in his heart growing.

“How would my master handle this woman if he were my age?”

Xu Yan fell deep in thought.

“Did my master also temper his state of mind in such a manner back then? Otherwise, why else would he have imparted the ‘a heart devoid of women’ profound teaching, to me?”

In his mind, every word and deed of his master appeared, a seemingly normal figure, despite possessing a disturbingly high cultivation realm.

“Return to nature and follow the Dao. My heart is restless because I am not self-aware. Only by understanding myself can I rid of all external interference and avoid becoming disturbed by seduction.

“If my heart does not move, then nothing can move my heart.”

In this moment, Xu Yan had an epiphany.

The Sword Intent of mountains and rivers emerged in his state of mind. The Oiran of Wushuang Hall whom he saw among the mountains and rivers, the dance she performed, and all her enchantments, all appeared one after another.

Embellishing the scenery of the mountains and rivers.

Slowly, an image of the woman dressed in white appeared amidst the mountains and rivers, as if sitting by a stream within the mountains, kicking water, her bright eyes sparkling.

In this moment, Xu Yan’s heart quietened down, no longer restless, with a clear understanding of self, his Sword Intent of mountains and rivers became more complete.

“If my fellow disciple breaks through and opens up his Sunflower Treasure meridians, he should be cultivating his blade within those meridians, while 1 should be nurturing all life and the sword in my heart within these mountains and rivers.

“Today, 1, Xu Yan, have achieved a major accomplishment of an enlightened Sword Heart!”

In this instant, Xu Yan’s enlightened Sword Heart had achieved a major accomplishment.

With the Sword Intent of mountains and rivers nurturing all life and the sword in his heart, he laid down the foundation for the second realm of the Sword Dao, the Heart Sword Realm.

Xu Yan revealed a smile, looked at the woman dressed in white beside him, no longer restless, her enchantment all seemed to have been incorporated into the Sword Intent of mountains and rivers.

The woman dressed in white felt a shiver in her heart, she looked at Xu Yan in astonishment. At that moment, she had faintly sensed an elusive aura emanating from Xu Yan.

She noticed, Xu Yan was no longer restless, seemingly indifferent to her enchantment.

“As expected of Sword Grandeur Cliff, the first among geniuses in a thousand years!”

Sighing inwardly, trying to get the opportunity for him to act once, was indeed filled with difficulties.

The woman dressed in white raised her hand, removing the gauze covering her face.

Revealing a peerless face, in this moment, the world seemed to have lost its colors, as though this face was the only beauty under the heavens.

“Mister, is your heart not made of iron?”

The woman dressed in white spoke softly.

Stretching out her slender, jade-like fingers, she gently poked Xu Yan’s chest. In her pleasure and anger, she induced an infinite impulse, enough to set a person’s blood boiling.

However, Xu Yan remained undisturbed.

Inside the Sword Intent of mountains and rivers, that woman dressed in white also opened her eyes and reached out her slender, jade-like hand… all the enchantment was but a part of the Sword Intent of mountains and rivers.

And Xu Yan, was the master of the Sword Intent of mountains and rivers, controlling everything.

“You are the most enchanting, the most capable of touching one’s heart, woman that I’ve met. But you still can’t disrupt my heart, instead, you have made my Sword Dao heart firmer.”

Xu Yan said sincerely.

The woman dressed in white withdrew her smile, her beautiful eyebrows slightly raised. Despite that, she still incited an irresistible impulse.

Her eyes fixated on Xu Yan, her heart unsettled.

“The master said, I have a unique constitution. After cultivating using this technique, there are few in the world who can resist my enchantment, allowing me to control men for my own use.

“Even an average Grandmaster can be made to lose his composure by me, willingly braving dangers for my sake. As for Martial Artists below the first rank, none can resist.”

However, the youth in front of her, she could not stir even the slightest restlessness.

“Mister, you truly are an unparalleled man in this world, I admire you greatly!”

The woman dressed in white exclaimed.

Xu Yan thought for a moment and said: “I have a friend who also practices Sword Dao. One day, he may also want to temper his state of mind. Would it be possible for him to seek you to refine his frame of mind?”

He thought of Xie Lingfeng, the one who used his name to come to this place.

“Brother Xie may also want to temper his mind, right? Otherwise, how can he enter the Sword Dao? Coming here to temper his mind would be the best way, it’d be good to find an opportunity for him.”

Xu Yan thought to himself.

“Fine, I am curious to see if your friend can remain unmoved as you.”

The woman dressed in white gave a slight smile.

“Thank you!”

Xu Yan replied with a bow of his hands..
