Golden Sword Talisman and Battle Intent

The Battle Intent of martial arts practitioners are mostly born from the martial arts moves they have practiced over many years.

Only a small portion consisted of inherited, heterogeneous Battle Intent.

When a martial art is cultivated to a state of unparalleled mastery, it can resonate with certain profound laws of the universe, thereby greatly increasing its power. This is called the Heavenly Dao Mana Fusion.

Based on this, continue to cultivate and refine, and intention will naturally arise.

This is the Battle Intent practitioner!

Li Weiyi stood on the blood-muddy ground, channeling his magical power throughout his body's Trace Meridians. He stretched out his arms, dragging his palms, and wisps of magical energy flowed between his fingertips.

Li Ling stopped five zhang away, said nothing more, and a large number of light particles emerged from between her eyebrows.

On her wrist, nine silver bracelets absorbed the light particles and then spun rapidly, emitting a silvery radiance that illuminated the entire Blood Mud Space, followed by a series of clanging sounds.

After the nine silver bracelets flew out, they multiplied into eighty-one.

It covered everything.

This single attack was something that no ordinary martial artist at the third stage of the Five Seas Realm could withstand.

Like the Old Man of the Deformed Race from the Three Chen Palace who died at the hands of her and Li Weiyi half a month ago, when faced with these nine silver bracelets, he could only flee and dodge, and dared not fight them head-on.

Li Weiyi struck out with his palm.

A square, golden divine seal, several times larger than his own body, appeared, formed by interwoven magical energy, with a dragon coiled around its body and Ancient Script engraved on its base.

The seal, the Ancient Script, Coiled Dragon were not things he intentionally created, nor could he have created them.

Instead, he unleashed this palm technique, which resonated with some mysterious force within the universe.

It's like taking an iron rod to the top of a mountain during a thunderstorm; it will attract lightning. The lightning doesn't belong to it, but it knows some rule of nature and keeps looking for ways to conform to that rule, which is how it attracts lightning.

"Bang! Bang!"

The light and shadow of eighty-one silver bracelets fell on the Sky-Flipping Divine Seal, bursting open like bubbles.

Nine real silver bracelets appeared and were flung away by the power of the divine seal.

Li Weiyi withdrew all his magical energy into his palm, the Sky-Flipping Divine Seal dissipated, and he frowned slightly. "Your power is too weak, not enough to help me activate my Battle Intent. Do you have any stronger attack methods?"

"Okay, let's do it again."

Li Ling took back the silver bracelet, her pretty face showing a grim expression, her fighting spirit ignited.

She Great Mind Master of the Skyfire Realm, and she went all out, yet a martial artist at the First Realm the Five Seas Realm considered her too weak. How could she tolerate this?

She took out a bronze funerary lamp and activated it with her mental power.

"Whoosh!"

The lamp of death released a dazzling blue flame, surrounded by swirling mist that enveloped her body.

In the next instant, Li Ling transformed into a ball of blue fire, carrying terrifying heat, and instantly crossed a distance of five zhang, colliding with Li Weiyi.

"Boom!"

The blue fiery cloud collided with the magical energy, and the energy ripples scattered wildly in all directions.

Li Weiyi did not use the Overturning Sky Palm Seal.

It merely erected a wall of magical energy to resist.

The barrier of magical energy was shattered by Li Ling, Li Weiyi was forced back, using the blood mist and crimson scriptures released by the Corpse Cloth Soft Armor to neutralize the remaining force of the Nether Lamp.

"Stop! With your fighting style, I dare not use the Overturning Sky Palm Seal. I'm afraid I'll accidentally kill you. Is the attack method of Great Mind Master really this simple and brutal?"

Li Weiyi gazed at the Zen Sea Observing Mist on the jade boat in the distance.

The meaning is quite clear:

Why don't you do it?

Zen Sea Observing Mist remained calm, summoned Li Ling back to the jade boat, and whispered a few words to her.

He then traced runes with his fingers, teaching her the Talisman Path.

"Teach her a few more special skills."

Li Weiyi shouted this, and then practiced the palm technique on his own, pondering the mystery of the Overturning Sky Palm Seal.

The Chan Sect Twelve Loose Hand Techniques are said to have originated from twelve deities of the Chan Sect. Each deity summarized their own cultivation achievements, taking the essence and discarding the dross, and left behind this general martial art.

When he was practicing asceticism on the mountain, he didn't think about it much at all; he just treated it as a way to strengthen his body.

Upon arriving in this world, as his cultivation level increased and the quality of his internal energy became more refined, the Twelve Loose Hand Techniques gradually revealed their power. Only then did Li Weiyi realize its profound depth and complexity. The more he pondered it, the more he felt its infinite variations and the unfathomable mysteries it contained.

Now, when I practice again, I am naturally completely focused.

I carefully studied each move and made constant adjustments.

Half a day later.

After finishing her training, Li Ling confidently approached Li Weiyi again, raising her pointed, white chin. "For a Mind Master, insect control, demon taming, formations, and Talisman Path arts are the strongest offensive methods. Are you ready?"

"Alright, let me see what new things you've learned from the Ancient Son of Heaven."

Li Weiyi was genuinely wary of the Talisman Path. Back in the Five Seas Realm, he had almost fallen victim to the talismans of that Great Mind Master of the Sui Sect.

Li Ling made a swiping motion with her finger.

"Splash!"

A bright wall of fire appeared in front of Li Weiyi, interfering with his vision and perception.

She leaped into the air, her brows radiating light, and a rune shot out from within like lightning.

Flying above Li Weiyi's head, the runes exploded, transforming into a three-zhang-long golden Giant Sword, which slashed down with a thunderous roar. The energy unleashed by the Giant Sword shook the blood mist surrounding the Blood Mud Space violently.

"This... this looks a lot like Divine Sword Talisman," said Coffin Master.

Master Urn said, "How could it be Divine Sword Talisman? Divine Sword Talisman can only be embodied in a magical sword made of special materials, possessing the power to slay Longevity Realm Expert. Back then, the Imperial Court envoys who came out of the Lingxiao Palace carrying secret missions were said to each carry a Divine Sword Talisman, and each of them was incredibly imposing."

The Spirit Tablet Master said, "It is Divine Sword Talisman, but the runes have been simplified, so its power is not as exaggerated. However, since it was drawn by Great Mind Master of the Skyfire Realm, the power of the runes is comparable to the full-force attack of a martial artist at the Fourth Realm of the Five Seas."

"Boom!"

Li Weiyi's Sky-Flipping Divine Seal clashed head-on with the golden Giant Sword.

The divine seal was cleaved open, and the powerful impact of the sword's edge sent him staggering back more than ten steps, leaving a wound on his palm from which blood dripped.

"Such powerful runes, this is the feeling! Let's do it again!"

Li Weiyi sensed the reappearance of the Battle Intent, but found it difficult to grasp, thus fueling his intense fighting spirit.

Li Ling landed back on the ground, feeling incredulous. She believed that even a martial artist at the Fourth Realm of the Five Seas would not be able to easily withstand that sword strike. Li Weiyi had only recently reached the Five Seas Realm, yet he had only suffered minor injuries after taking the blow.

"Wait a moment! The Golden Sword Talisman is extremely complex and consumes a great deal of mental energy. With my current cultivation level, drawing it is very slow."

Li Ling formed hand seals and used her mental power to manipulate particles of spiritual light, drawing runes in the Forehead Spirit Realm.

"Your intermittent delivery is really making things awkward and unsatisfying."

Li Weiyi was speechless.

In a real battle, who will give you time to draw talismans?

He added, "Couldn't you have prepared more in advance? I think if you could prepare a hundred of these Golden Sword Talisman beforehand, even martial artists at the Fifth Realm of the Five Seas would flee at the sight of you."

Influenced by him, Li Ling failed to complete her sketch and stamped her foot, exclaiming urgently, "Don't speak yet!"

For the next two weeks, Li Weiyi was completely immersed in comprehending the Battle Intent, practicing, attacking, defending, and sparring with Li Ling dozens of times almost every day.

From the very beginning, the Overturning Sky Palm Seal was instantly cleaved in two by the Golden Sword Talisman, clearly indicating that it was no match.

When the two are evenly matched, they either clash fiercely or annihilate each other.

Later, the Overturning Sky Palm Seal even surpassed the previous one, shattering the golden Giant Sword.

Li Weiyi, with his mind clear and mind sharp, had already sensed the birth of the first Battle Intent. As he shifted his feet and flipped his arms and hands, an invisible shadow appeared around his body, swirling around him.

When the Qi interacts, one can perceive that there are countless threads connecting the Battle Intent, Qi, and spirit.

Unfortunately, the Battle Intent cannot be seen, so its exact form cannot be discerned.

"Why is it necessary to reach the third stage of the Five Seas Realm for Battle Intent to materialize and manifest?" Li Weiyi asked.

Master Urn said, "The fundamental reason is that the Battle Intent must rely on sufficiently pure magical energy, and then merge with your essence, energy, and spirit, in order to become visible to the naked eye."

"In other words, as long as you cultivate the third level of the Five Seas Qi, even if you are not at the third level of the Five Seas Realm, you can still manifest Battle Intent."

"However, no one can cultivate the third-order Qi of the Five Seas Realm before reaching the third stage of the Five Seas Realm. Even those with the Hundred Meridian Lines All Silver Pure Immortal Body cannot do it."

Li Weiyi said, "Is it that difficult? The Qi of the third rank of the Five Seas Realm is only twice as refined as that of the second rank of the Five Seas Realm. I'm not saying twice as refined, but more than twice as refined! As long as the second Qi Sea is opened, I'm afraid that the moment I break through to the Second Realm of the Five Seas Realm, I can transform into the third rank of the Five Seas Realm."

The Master Urn was silent for a moment, then shouted, "Mist Son of Heaven, could you have done that back then?"

"With absolute power, everything can be crushed."

On the jade boat, Zen Sea Observing Mist, with her tall and slender figure, stood up, her aura becoming even more powerful, her phoenix eyes sharp. "A month has passed, things should have calmed down outside. When will we set off?"

"No rush. It's good to be in seclusion here. I feel like I can cultivate all the way to the Fifth Realm of the Five Seas." Li Weiyi has been making great progress recently, with his strength increasing every day. He is completely immersed in it.

Zen Sea Observing Mist asked, "Have you completed the cultivation of your first Qi Sea?"

"Almost there," Li Weiyi said.

Zen Sea Observing Mist said, "You completed the first Qi Sea in just over a month, which is quite fast! But the second Qi Sea is several times larger than the first. In other words, if you continue cultivating in the current way, it will take you several months to complete it."

"The third Qi Sea will be even larger, and it will take you at least another year."

"And the fourth Qi Sea is the main sea, ten times larger than the previous three Qi Sea. Moreover... this is only the simplest way to accumulate Qi, which requires a certain amount of time."

"Do you really think that following a set path of seclusion is the fastest way to cultivate?"

Li Weiyi couldn't regard her as his Guardian Wife or Fiancée, and asked, "Does Senior mean that we need to go to the state city and cultivate using the Heaven Law Earth Spring?"

"Seclusion within the Dao Domain of Heaven Law Earth Spring does indeed increase cultivation speed several times over, but it's still not fast enough."

Zen Sea Observing Mist's desire to rapidly improve her cultivation surpassed even Li Weiyi's. She continued, "I can refine a pill that rapidly increases one's Qi Sea, called the Qi Ascension Pill. Taking one pill can increase one's Qi by one unit."
