First-Order Sword Intent

Chapter 42: First Level Sword Intent

Lin Bai arrived at the Hall of Books.

He went straight to the bookshelf from yesterday and found the Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll.

"I'd like to see just how strange this is."

Lin Bai directly opened the Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll.

The Thunderous Divine Sword immediately rushed out.

This time, Lin Bai didn't dodge, allowing the Thunderous Divine Sword to directly enter his body.

Then, the scroll opened, revealing a man standing amidst thunder.

Lin Bai looked at the picture.

Soon, thousands of thunderbolts, like divine dragons crawling out of hell, devoured Lin Bai.

A terrifying force pressed down on Lin Bai.

Watching the thousands of thunderbolts charge out, Lin Bai trembled, but said with unwavering determination, "Have you come to kill me, or to worship me!"

"To kill me, or to worship me!"

As soon as Lin Bai said this, the ferocious thunderbolts shuddered slightly and actually all retreated back into the scroll.

Whoosh—

The moment the thunderbolts left, the scene in front of Lin Bai changed.

He was no longer in the Hall of Books on White Cloud Peak.

To be precise, his intent was no longer in the Hall of Books.

Before him was a gray and dark world covered in dark clouds.

And Lin Bai stood in the center of this world, with thousands of thunderbolts constantly flashing around him.

He was like the king of this world, worshiped by thousands of thunderbolts!

"He actually... merged his intent within it!" Li Shanqing said in surprise.

Hearing this, Ling Tianzi put down the book in his hand with interest and smiled, "Interesting. This is the first young man I've seen with such talent in the Sword Dao in all these years."

"Master, is he about to comprehend Sword Intent?" Li Shanqing asked in surprise.

"Probably not," Ling Tianzi said, shaking his head, and continued reading.

Sword Intent is Martial Dao Will.

The Martial Dao Will comprehended by a saber user is called Saber Intent.

The Martial Dao Will comprehended by a sword user is called Sword Intent.

The Martial Dao Will comprehended by a fist fighter is called Fist Intent.

Martial Dao Will is also divided into levels, divided into nine levels.

Once one comprehends Sword Intent, they can be called a Sword Cultivator.

The cultivation of Martial Dao Will is extremely difficult, requiring martial artists to comprehend and break through in the world and in the myriad aspects of life.

This is far more difficult than martial arts cultivation.

However, a martial artist who possesses Martial Dao Will is basically invincible in the same realm when they reveal their Martial Dao Will.

Lin Bai stood in the gray and dark space, focusing on the thunder.

The thunder shone in his eyes, as if this world was in his eyes!

"I understand!"

"It turns out that all fear comes from within."

When Lin Bai first arrived here and discovered the Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll on the first night, Lin Bai was afraid of the Thunderous Divine Sword and the thousands of thunderbolts.

But today, when Lin Bai arrived, he was not afraid at all.

Did the thunderbolts defeat his fear?

Or did he conquer the thunderbolts?

"No one in this world can defeat me, except myself."

"With me, I am invincible!"

Lin Bai looked out, and the thousands of thunderbolts in front of him shattered in fear.

From Lin Bai's body, a monstrous sword aura emanated, suppressing and crushing this firmament.

Buzz—

Lin Bai's words "With me, I am invincible" immediately caused the gray and dark space in front of him to shatter.

With a whoosh—

The scene shifted, and Lin Bai once again saw the Hall of Books.

The scroll he held in his hand turned to ashes.

Even though the scroll was gone, Lin Bai's eyes still flickered with lightning.

Lin Bai slowly raised his hand.

The Barren Ancient Continent Gazetteer on the bookshelf exploded, and the paper shards condensed into the shape of a sword in Lin Bai's hand.

Lin Bai slashed down.

"Go!"

He shattered a pillar in the distance that required three people to encircle.

"What is this power?"

"I can use it without even mobilizing true energy."

Lin Bai said, full of curiosity.

Lin Bai didn't yet know that he had just comprehended Sword Intent.

Lin Bai shattered the massive pillar, and the entire Hall of Books shook violently.

"Not good, it's going to collapse."

Lin Bai saw that the pillar he had struck was the main support!

"Damn it!"

Lin Bai cursed under his breath and hurriedly ran out of the Hall of Books.

Looking back at the ruined Hall of Books, such a big commotion would definitely alert Ling Tianzi.

Lin Bai quickly turned and ran down White Cloud Peak.

If Ling Tianzi found out that he had destroyed his Hall of Books, he definitely wouldn't accept Lin Bai as a disciple.

"Oh dear, I destroyed the Hall of Books."

"Senior Ling Tianzi, it seems I can only slowly apologize after I become your disciple."

Lin Bai stood at the foot of White Cloud Peak, looking troubled.

Lin Bai had just left when Ling Tianzi and Li Shanqing appeared in front of the Hall of Books.

"Not bad, he knows how to face the fear in his heart."

"If he hadn't dared to face that lightning today, he would never have comprehended Sword Intent."

"Although he only comprehended a little bit in his heart, it's still a good start."

Ling Tianzi said with a faint smile.

"Master, he destroyed the Hall of Books, and you can tolerate that?" Li Shanqing looked at the collapsed Hall of Books behind him, surprised.

"Or should I go down and drag him back up for a beating?" Ling Tianzi looked at Li Shanqing and smiled.

"Forget it, you can tolerate it, so what can I do?" Li Shanqing said with a troubled face.

"You tidy up the Hall of Books."

Ling Tianzi said casually.

"I knew it, I'm the one who has to tidy up." Li Shanqing said, on the verge of tears.

Lin Bai left White Cloud Peak and returned to his residence.

"If it weren't for that Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll, I wouldn't have been able to comprehend this mysterious power at all!"

"That scroll belongs to Ling Tianzi!"

"It seems the path my Third Uncle chose for me was right."

"Master Ling Tianzi, your disciple is here."

Lin Bai happily fell onto the bed and had a sweet dream.

Although Lin Bai didn't know the value of the Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll, he had a feeling that it was definitely not an ordinary item.

Since Ling Tianzi could have such a powerful scroll, then he himself should be no slouch!

For two consecutive days, Lin Bai was comprehending that mysterious power.

Lin Bai discovered that whenever he held his sword and used that mysterious power, the blade became exceptionally sharp.

His swordsmanship, sword techniques, and sword momentum were also ten times more powerful than usual.

"This mysterious power is very strong, it can enhance my sword techniques and swordsmanship."

Lin Bai was deeply surprised.

"That's good, with this mysterious power, I'll be even more confident in the re-evaluation two days from now."

"Perhaps I can even achieve a higher ranking."

Lin Bai was pleasantly surprised.

For two consecutive days, Lin Bai remained in his room, secluded and trying to comprehend this mysterious power.

After two days, Lin Bai had more or less completely mastered it, reaching a state where he could control it freely.

Although Lin Bai didn't know exactly what this mysterious power was, he knew it was definitely a benefit bestowed upon him by the Thunderous Sword Intent Scroll.

Lin Bai still didn't know that the "mysterious power" he spoke of was the Martial Dao Will that all martial artists dreamed of comprehending.

Because of this, Lin Bai felt even more grateful towards Ling Tianzi.
