The Dragon God of Destruction
Special Tests (2)
Tianyu Realm, Sword Sect
The slash launched by Yun Che nearly split the straw puppet. For the Sword Sect members who were staring at it, naturally they were all shocked to not expect that there would be a cultivator of the level of the late stage Immortal Transformation who had such strong sword intent. Aside from that, Yun Che's movements were also extremely smooth, like a river flowing with just a slight ripple.
“The skill and sword intent of this Yun Che boy is qualified to be an inner circle disciple.” Inner First Elder and he immediately spoke, “Good, for sword skill and sword intent, you are qualified to be an inner circle disciple.”
“Next is to test the spirit you have in the way of the sword. It can also determine your future as most swordsmen will stop halfway due to their low morale.” Followed the First Elder as he took out a white-colored crystal.
Yun Che who sheathed the Eternal Cloud Sword was not satisfied with the praise of the First Elder, when he became the number one swordsman he would feel proud and not disappoint his late teacher.
“Put your palm on top of this crystal and channel the spiritual power you have. For swordsmen, what matters is not qi, but spiritual power which is the key point of fighting spirit or the development of a swordsman.” said the First Elder.
Yun Che only gave a small nod and touched the surface of the crystal ball then the crystal ball changed color as it channeled its spiritual power.
“This.” The First Elder's eyes shrank sharply as the crystal he held turned a red color. He looked back at Yun Che with a meaningless blank look.
“You passed.” said the First Elder but did not explain what the red meant. Only those with high positions in the Sword Sect understood the meaning of each color and level of spiritual power.
As Yun Che slowly retreated, the First Elder looked at the young man with a slightly complicated gaze. He immediately speculated why the famous Cloud Sword Arts user looked so wild and ambitious and was filled with killing intent, and that was certainly due to the Eternal Cloud Swordsman who was likely dead.
Without even asking, the First Elder immediately made a speculation because the Immortal Cloud Sword Expert had long since disappeared.
“Next is your turn.” The First Elder charged towards Jie Yan as he spoke. He also glanced at Xia Yue'er who seemed to be sitting casually on Jie Yan's shoulder and watching all the places with a curious look.
“Swatchers who are also World Spiritists.” Inner First Elder and felt that the possibility of Jie Yan's talent was definitely lower than Yun Che's. This was common because he saw Jie Yan was a World Spiritist.
Normally, every cultivator would have one uniqueness of their own. This made the First Elder not particularly hopeful with Jie Yan's abilities because Jie Yan had first touched the World Spiritist profession.
Jie Yan slowly walked to the front of the other straw puppets pointed at by the First Elder. Without wasting any time, he drew his sword.
The moment Jie Yan's sword appeared, the First Elder's eyes shrank sharply as he knew that Jie Yan's sword was not an ordinary sword. He could sense that the sword was even producing a concept and this was an extremely rarely seen sword.
The thing that made him confused, usually the sword that could produce the concept itself was at the level of a God Artifact. But he detected that Jie Yan's sword was a medium-level Immortal Artifact.
“What sword is it? I have never read a note about such a sword! Is this an Eternal Artifact that has not been created for so long that there is no record of it?” The Inner First Elder. He put aside his current thoughts and focused on Jie Yan's judgment.
Purple steam slowly seeped from Jie Yan's body which made his sword intent look very different to anyone's.
Jie Yan had indeed reached the Sword Essence realm. However no one knew that the sword in Jie Yan's hand had turned out to strengthen the sword intent of its user at all times.
And it could be said, without comprehending the sword intent core, Jie Yan's body instinctively studied it at all times. And this was also one of the sword unique abilities that Jie Yan had in hand and it was certain that the sword would only unleash such passive abilities on someone he acknowledged.
And Jie Yan as the son of the Heavenly Empress who was the original owner of the sword would naturally acknowledge Jie Yan as its master. This was also because the sword was forged using the blood of the Heavenly Empress directly in the past so that 99% of only her descendants could use the sword.
As Jie Yan took out his sword intent, he was also able to sense that there was an increase to his sword intent every time even though it was very small.
After which, Jie Yan made a simple gesture. Every sword technique he inherited was indeed the highest level of sword technique ever to exist in the Universe. It is the sword ability that is in place by his mother in a very long time so as to achieve the highest perfection.
“Secret Art, Chaos Dance!”
Jie Yan looked to spin and slash in a strange way and looked like he was dancing. His slash looked extremely ordinary, but it was only in the eyes of people who had yet to reach the high-level sword realm.
For the First Elder, his eyes widened as he stared at Jie Yan's extremely refined movements, if he were not a high-level swordsman, he would not have understood the true essence of such sword skill.
“This..what is this sword ability? It has no gap at all! Can be stopped, deflected or replaced with other techniques. This sword was never seen! What is the origin of this brat named Jie Yan?” The Inner First Elder.
The sraing!
Srak!
The straw puppet that Jie Yan had slashed down immediately split apart instantly. This left everyone there dumbfounded as they knew the resilience of the second level straw puppet.
As for Yun Che, he tightly gripped the hilt of the Eternal Cloud Sword. He was eager to challenge Jie Yan. The reason was getting stronger to fight against Jie Yan because he knew that Jie Yan had not long ago broken through the Sword Essence sword intent but that sword intent was already greater than his.
“Great! I did not expect that you would have such great skill and sword intent at such a young age!” said the First Elder praising Jie Yan and continued, “You are already worthy of being an inner circle disciple. Next is to test the spirit you have!”
Jie Yan only smiled slightly. He was also not satisfied with the First Elder's praise. Of course this was because he wanted to reach the top of the cultivation path. Whatever he learned he wanted to develop to his peak level, not just sword skills, concepts or formation arts. And only by reaching all the pinnacles of the skill he learned would make him qualified to become the number one expert.
