Chapter 59 Comprehending Sword Intent! Ming Yuexin's Shock!

59 Comprehending Sword Intent! Ming Yuexin's Shock!

The room was pretty small, with a bed and attached bathroom along with a small living room. However, Long Ming felt pretty comfortable in it.

He sat in a meditative position as he took out the rusty sword from his spatial ring.

It was a longsword with a length of slightly bigger than one and a half hands. However, it was completely covered with a pale crimson rust. The hilt looked junked as there was dimmed gem embedded in it.

However, when Long Ming gazed at it with his Heavenly Revelation Eyes, he felt a tremendous murderous aura erupting from the sword.

The pale crimson rust turned into a sea of blood as a piercing sword aura ascended to the heavens. The moment the sword flashed, a powerful army of a million soldiers turned into a bloody mist.

The sword's intent was simply unparalleled, invincible under heaven. Long Ming touched it as he calmed his heart. Soon, the visions disappeared as it returned to the old, rusty sword.

Long Ming scratched the pale crimson rust as he looked at it carefully. " This is... Fiendish Blood rust."

Fiendish Bloodrust is a type of rust that forms after the accumulation of powerful spirit blood on a strong metal surface. It is born when a weapon constantly bathes in the blood of powerful cultivators and doesn't get cleansed. The blood turns into a sticky rust that erodes the metal surface.

' However, It's not like it's useless. On the contrary, I can make something from it.' Long Ming remembered the Records of Myriad Treasure as he thought about something.

His Scarlet Yang Qi congealed in his palm as Long Ming created a spark of crimson flame. He held the sword in both his hands as he tried to peel off the Fiendish Blood rust from the rusty sword.

However, the power of the Fiendish Bloodrust erupted as Long Ming got covered by a thick slaughter aura.

" This sword... It definitely used to be a Royal grade weapon. Ugh, It's so powerful!" Long Ming felt like his body was cut by sharp needles when he tried to refine that sword.

The sword intent contained in the rusty sword was too sharp. One mistake and Long Ming might turn into precisely diced meat slices.

Suddenly, Long Ming's Desolate Immortal Aura erupted as it enveloped the sword. The sword acted like a small fire and got drowned in a bucket of icy water. Instantly, he calmed down, as if it got suppressed by Long Ming's aura.

' Desolate Immortal Aura is sure mysterious. I think I should research it more.' Long Ming pondered as he refined the Fiendish Bloodrust from the rusty blade.

The scarlet flame on his palm was created by the Scarlet Yang Qi, which was a powerful Yang attribute element. The flames were very good to deal with the Fiendish Bloodrust.

As Long Ming managed to gather a small cup full of Bloodfiend Rust, the sword cracked up.

' Oh, Damn! I thought I could restore this!" Long Ming cursed.

However, the moment the rusty sword cracked, a white light shot from it and entered Long Ming's forehead.

" ARRGHH!"

Long Ming felt like his body was being sliced by countless swords as he clutched his head in pain. He realized the white light circled around his soul as it condensed into a miniature version of the sword.

However, unlike the rusty sword, it looked pure and unblemished, like a drop of essence from a jade.

Long Ming feel the sharp sword intent from the miniature sword as it revolved around his soul.

Long Ming took a sharp breath as he shook his head. It was the same as having a bullet stuck near his heart. One wrong move and he might not even reincarnate again.

However, The sword intent felt pure and unadulterated. It doesn't mean any harm as it revolved around his soul. Long Ming thought for a moment as he used his Heavenly Comprehension on that miniature sword.

Suddenly, Long Ming saw the miniature sword turn into a sea of memories as it flashed across Long Ming's eyes.

Long Ming felt like he was holding a sword as he stood amidst a battlefield. With a sword in his hand, he proudly raised his head as he saw the army or demons and gods.

Sword Intent is unbendable. No matter what is the situation, even under the pressure of heaven and earth, the sword looks at the s sky with pride. As long as the heart is steady, the sword can slice through heaven and earth.

From the basic stances of the sword to the mystical movements of sword intent, from holding a small steel sword to controlling a sword that pierces the sky, Long Ming slowly comprehended everything.

[ Ding! Host's understanding of the sword increases! Host obtained Sword Intent!]

Slowly, Long Ming could feel like he can control that miniature sword. With utmost carefulness, he used his comprehension of sword intent as he moved the miniature sword from his soul to his divine sea.

The Fragrant Yin Qi and Scarlet Yang Qi rolled as the miniature sword is now residing in his divine sea.

' Just looking at it, I comprehend the Sword Intent? What is that miniature sword?"' Long Ming pondered as he shook his head. Suddenly, he thought of something as he got up and walked to Ming Yuexin's room.

Knocking the door gently, Long Ming called out, " Sister Ming, Can I come in?"

" ..."

" Sister Ming?"

Long Ming's face turned odd when he heard no reply. " If you don't answer, I will come inside."

" I think I told you not to disturb me unless it is something urgent?"

" Uh, I think It is urgent?"

"... You can come in."

Long Ming entered the room and saw Ming Yuexin. She was still wearing her strange attire, leaving nothing exposed other than her eyes. Long Ming sighed as he suddenly thought something.

He opened his Max Level Affection System window and checked Ming Yuexin's favorability.

Ming Yunexin (S-grade): 40( Suspicious)

' Eh? Why is it below 50? Why she dislikes me?" Long Ming frowned as he couldn't remember meeting or doing something that might upset Ming Yuexin.

But what made her surprised is that Ming Yuexin is graded as S-grade by Affection System. It's the same as Xia Yuqing and Mu Qinglian.

" Are you here only to stare at me?"

Long Ming coughed lightly when he heard that. He cupped his fist, " Sister Ming, Senior Sister Mu said that your sword is unparalleled among the junior generation. I wonder if I can borrow some books regarding the basic sword styles?"

Ming Yuexin raised her brows when she heard Long Ming. " Basic sword techniques? Why?"

" Because, To build a powerful foundation of sword techniques, one should make their foundation firm." Long Ming answered.

[ Ding! Host gets +10 AP]

Ming Yuexin creased her brows as she sighed. She took out two scrolls and threw them at Long Ming. " Here, Take this."

Long Ming saw the two scrolls. " Foundational Sword Technique" and " Seven Lights Sword Technique."

Long Ming opened the scroll as he read through the content. They truly contained the basics of swords, from how to hold them to how to make movements.

However, With Long Ming's comprehension of sword intent, he can see the profundity of the basic techniques.

Ming Yuexin saw Long Ming standing quietly as he engrossed himself in those basic techniques.

After a short while, Long Ming placed the scrolls back on the table. As he stood silently. Ming Yuexin couldn't help but snort. " What? Finished reading already? Just because they are foundational techniques, That doesn't mean..."

However, Ming Yuexin's speech cut in the middle as he held the sword he got from Mu Qinglian in his hand. He held the sword hilt as the aura around Long Ming transformed completely.

Suddenly, he drew his sword as a faint light flashed. The small porcelain bottle a few feet away got sliced like a block of butter. Suddenly, The sword in Long Ming's hand moved as he first did the basic movements.

Slash, thrust, cut, lunge, parry, sweep, Long Ming fluidly did all the basic movements. As time passed, even the basic movements became complex. The slashes turned into different types of slashes and the cuts turned into various types of cuts.

Ming Yuexin was shocked as he could see a faint light covering the tip of Long Ming's sword.

" First Stance! Sword Reflection!"

Long Ming's sword moved his sword flashed, making a big and deep slash. He was now performing the Seven Light Sword Technique.

" Second stance! Wind Chaser!"

" Third stance..."

" Fourth..."

" Seventh stance! Illuminating Sword Light!"

After Long Ming did all seven stances, he didn't stop. Suddenly, Ming Yuexin trembled violently as he stood up. A powerful aura gathered in Long Ming's sword as he made an attack.

" Congealment! Seven Lights Become One!"

*SWISH SWISH SWISH!"

His sword let out a mighty aura as it made continuous deadly attacks.

" This...This!!"

Ming Yuexin knew the significance of the eighth move. Unlike the previous seven stances which were foundational techniques, The eighth stance actually hidden among the other seven stances, hidden from the gazes of ordinary eyes.

The seven stances were easy, but the final move wasn't something that could be performed by learning it alone. To perform Seven Lights Become One, one needs to have a firm foundation of sword technique along with the realm of Sword Aura.

Long Ming paused as he sheathed his sword. The aura around him vanished in that instance as he cupped his fist before Ming Yuexin.

" You... You learned sword techniques before?" Ming Yuexin asked suspiciously.

" Not really. It is my first time wielding a sword." Long Ming spoke with a light smile. " Thank you, Sister Ming, for your guidance."

" I..."

Ming Yuexin was speechless when she heard that. She couldn't belive Long Ming managed to perform the Seven Light Becomes One just by reading the technique.

What a terrifying talent! Even Ming Yuexin felt her talent of sword is pale before Long Ming.

[ Ding! Ming Yuxin's favorability toward Hist increased by 10 Points! Host gets 500 Ap! Current favorability: 50 (Neutral)]

" Sister Ming, Do you know about a thing that looks like..." Long Ming told her the brief characteristics of the miniature sword in his dantian.

Min Yuexin pondered as she was surprised. " Are you talking about the legendary Sword Embryo?"

Hehe, Just kidding. After this arc, I am thinking of locking all the chapters. Also, I might be on hiatus for a few (a week?) days where I might or might not post chapters because I will be stockpiling.

" Wai-Wait! It's just a funny way to announce something! Why are you approaching with weapons?"

The poor humble scholar shouted as he saw the daoist readers approaching him with a menacing gaze.

" Oh don't worry, We will keep your hands safe and sound, so you can write. As for the other body parts..."
