Just as Su Yu was preparing to continue his cultivation, a strange fluctuation suddenly came from the depths of his Sea of Consciousness.
This tremor came without warning, yet it was strong enough to be impossible to ignore.
He immediately calmed his mind, turning his full attention inward.
The moment his consciousness sank into his Sea of Consciousness, the scene before him made Su Yu tremble.
He saw the originally calm, pale yellow light orb vibrating violently, ripples spreading across its surface like boiling water.
Inside the light orb, countless golden specks of light flickered like stars, intertwining and wrapping around each other to form a complex and profound network of Spiritual Power.
This is...
As Su Yu's consciousness touched the surface of the light orb, an unprecedented stinging pain swept over him.
This pain did not come from his physical body but acted directly on the depths of his soul, making it almost impossible for him to maintain his internal vision.
Just as he was about to collapse, the light orb's vibration suddenly reached its peak--
A dazzling golden light exploded in his Sea of Consciousness, the blinding radiance instantly filling the entire space.
As the light gradually receded, Su Yu was shocked to discover that the original pale yellow light orb had completely transformed into a brilliant gold.
The newly formed golden light orb was a size larger than before, its surface flowing with a luster like liquid gold, emitting a heart-stopping pressure.
Su Yu slowly opened his eyes, a fleeting golden stream seeming to flash within his pupils.
He gently exhaled a breath of stale air, feeling the changes occurring within his Sea of Consciousness.
The originally pale yellow light orb had now completely transformed into a pure gold, emitting a warm and restrained radiance.
The most direct change occurred at the soul level.
Su Yu could clearly perceive that his Soul Power had more than doubled compared to before.
This increase was not a sudden surge but a natural and smooth growth, like a stream flowing into a river.
The enhancement of Soul Power brought about a significant change in his thinking ability.
His thoughts, which were like walking through a thin mist in the past, were now like the sun breaking through the clouds, everything becoming exceptionally clear and bright.
Su Yu stood still in the courtyard, carefully savoring the changes in his Sea of Consciousness.
The warm radiance emanating from the golden light orb reminded him of the scene when he first fused his soul.
This feeling...
He murmured to himself, it was extremely similar to when his comprehension had surged back then, just not as intense.
Indeed, although this improvement was not as earth-shattering as the first time, the leap in comprehension brought about by the doubling of his Soul Power still brought his understanding of the martial path to a whole new level.
Those cultivation problems that had troubled him for a long time now felt suddenly clear.
It was like a bright lamp suddenly lit up in the fog, illuminating the path forward.
The profound mysteries of the Lone Peak Sword Art became increasingly clear in his mind.
This sword art had been cultivated to this point, always stuck at the threshold of Lesser Accomplishment, unable to break through.
At this moment, Su Yu seemed to have grasped something crucial.
Steady and heavy, guarding like a mountain, attacking like thunder...
He softly recited the general outline of the sword art, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
So that's how it is!
Su Yu strode quickly towards the training room, the Azure Edge Sword already in his hand.
He cast aside all distracting thoughts, completely immersing himself in the artistic conception of the sword art.
He executed the Opening Stance, his Sword Intent like a mountain, unmoving and majestic.
But this time, he no longer felt mere heaviness but the boundless vitality contained within the mountain.
The mountain does not move, yet it nurtures all things...
Mountain Severing!
With a single strike, where the sword's edge passed, the air let out a dull explosive roar.
This sword was no longer simply powerful and fierce but contained the destructive force of a collapsing mountain.
The Sword Intent changed, and with a single move, he thrust upwards.
This time, the sword's edge was no longer just overwhelmingly fierce but carried the majestic momentum of a mountain rising from the earth.
As the sword moves transitioned, Su Yu seemed to see the image of a lone peak rising from flat ground and piercing the clouds.
He stood with his sword sheathed, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
The Lone Peak Sword Art had finally broken through to the Greater Accomplishment realm, its power more than doubled.
The effect of this comprehension boost was truly astonishing.
Su Yu stroked the sword's edge, unable to hide his shock.
One had to know that for ordinary Martial Artists, it often took years of hard work to cultivate a martial skill from Lesser Accomplishment to Greater Accomplishment.
And yet, the moment his comprehension improved, he grasped the key to breaking through.
But this was only the beginning.
Su Yu's gaze turned to Fleeting Light Shadow.
This movement martial skill was harder to cultivate than offensive martial skills, and he had originally estimated it would take at least another month to break through.
But at this moment, a strong confidence surged within him—he could break through now!
"Fleeting light, appearing real yet illusory; sweeping shadow, swift as a startled swan..."
The incantation flowed in his mind, and Su Yu's figure began to move.
At first, it was just simple dodges and turns, but as his understanding of the true meaning of the movement technique deepened, his movements became faster and smoother.
Miraculously, in his heightened state of comprehension, Su Yu could clearly perceive the subtle changes in every movement.
The contraction and expansion of his muscles, the flow path of his Spiritual Power, and even the changes in air resistance became vividly apparent.
This level of micro-control was the key to breaking through.
So, he had previously overlooked the synergy between the movement technique and the environment...
Su Yu's figure moved at varying speeds, sometimes as ethereal and unpredictable as fleeting light, other times as swift and unparalleled as a sweeping shadow.
Most wondrously, he found he could automatically adjust the details of his movement technique based on changes in his surroundings.
This near-instinctive adaptability was the mark of Fleeting Light Shadow reaching Greater Accomplishment.
As the afterglow of the setting sun filled the training room, Su Yu finally stopped.
His clothes were already soaked with sweat, but his eyes sparkled with excitement.
Fleeting Light Shadow had also successfully broken through to the Greater Accomplishment realm, meaning his overall strength had taken another step forward.
Two martial skills breaking through on the same day... Su Yu shook his head with a wry smile, the effect of improved comprehension was truly terrifying.
