Can Improving Sword Intent Speed Up Soul Power Growth? Isn't That Reasonable?

Of course, Xiao Tian had only been joking. He was not that desperate. The rewards he had obtained were already enough to keep him occupied for a while, and they had only just fought. Too much was as bad as too little.

With such a Treasure Accumulation Basin, Xiao Tian did not rush to the Martial Soul Branch Hall in Notting City to register his Soul Power level and receive Spirit Hall's subsidy.

In fact, he had no intention of registering at all right now.

Before long, a year passed.

Over the course of that year.

Xiao Tian would occasionally thrash Tang San and spar with Xiao Wu, and his own strength improved by leaps and bounds.

Unfortunately, he did not receive many good rewards from the system during that year.

He could not help wondering whether the system had handed out too many rewards at the beginning and was now starting to run out of steam.

At first, the system would remind him not to keep testing the limits of death, lest Tang Hao see his son constantly losing and decide to intervene.

Xiao Tian, however, did not care. As long as he did not go too far, Tang Hao might even be grateful to him.

Grateful that he had ignited Tang San's Fighting Spirit and made him train even harder.

So, after beating Tang San around ten times or so, Xiao Tian would deliberately expose a flaw, making Tang San think he was not far from defeating him and keeping him hooked like that.

"Xiao Tian, Xiao Wu, vacation starts tomorrow. Do you have any plans? I'm planning to return to the village and visit my father. If you two have nothing to do, would you like to come with me?"

Tang San invited them both, though his gaze kept drifting toward Xiao Wu.

Xiao Wu said nothing and looked at Xiao Tian beside her.

Wherever Xiao Tian went, she would go. Over the past year, her Soul Power had improved the fastest among the three, but regrettably, she was still no match for Xiao Tian. She did not even know what level his Soul Power had reached.

Then why did she know that her cultivation was the highest?

Naturally, Xiao Tian had told her.

Although every defeat at Xiao Tian's hands ended with her getting her butt spanked, she gradually realized that she seemed to be getting used to it. Moreover, every time afterward, she would feel something indescribable, and she could focus even better when cultivating.

Xiao Tian fell silent for a moment before finally nodding in agreement.

Vacation would last quite a while anyway. He could first follow Tang San to Holy Soul Village for a look, then return to Craftsman Soul Village to visit the village chief grandpa.

Seeing Xiao Wu seek Xiao Tian's opinion, Tang San felt somewhat displeased, but he endured it.

After a year, he had finally begun to integrate into Xiao Tian and Xiao Wu's little group. Once the time was right, he should be able to ask Xiao Tian some more private questions, right?

Even now, he did not believe Xiao Tian was truly that strong, capable of possessing multiple sword techniques. Furthermore, he still did not know what Xiao Tian's Spirit Skills were. Every time he asked—

Xiao Tian would say—

"I am a Sword Cultivator. I do not place much importance on Spirit Skills, only on Sword Dao Intent. As long as my Sword Dao improves, it will also help improve my Soul Power cultivation."

Xiao Tian was quietly brainwashing Tang San and Xiao Wu.

After all, he could not hide his cultivation for much longer. Once it was exposed, he would need a proper and suitable explanation.

I walk a different path of cultivation. Improving my Sword Intent can accelerate the growth of my Soul Power. Isn't that reasonable?

I think it's perfectly reasonable!

Hehe.

Try exposing me if you dare?!

Moreover, he had a purpose in going to Holy Soul Village this time. If his guess was correct—

Early the next morning, the three set out.

They did not hurry along the way, instead walking and stopping as they pleased. It was not until noon the next day that they arrived at Holy Soul Village.

The moment they arrived at Holy Soul Village, Tang San could not wait any longer. He ran straight toward his house and shouted loudly.

"Dad, I'm back!"

The instant he stepped into Holy Soul Village, just as he had expected, the system's voice exploded in his mind once more!

Ding! Warning! Warning! Ah Yin, the Core of Life of the Douluo Plane (merged with the Ancient Tree of Life), has been detected in a cave on the Back Mountain of Holy Soul Village. Her strength is extremely formidable. Host, please keep a low profile!

After issuing so many warnings, although the system already knew its host was not the low-key type, it had professional ethics. It still had to give the warning it was supposed to give!

A faint smile appeared on Xiao Tian's lips. Just as he had expected—if he took Ah Yin away from Holy Soul Village and had his way with her, could he trigger the system's Critical Reward as well?

Of course, it would be a very proper sort of handling. His tastes were not that heavy.

And he could also get a Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone for free.

However, if he remembered correctly, Tang Hao had set up an array there. If anyone touched the box containing the Blue Silver Emperor leg bone, Tang Hao would sense it immediately.

No rush, no rush. He had plenty of patience.

At this rate, Tang Hao would not give Tang San the Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone early unless Tang San reached level forty or fifty.

Hearing the commotion, Old Jack came out of the house. Seeing Xiao Tian and Xiao Wu at the village entrance, he nodded with a genial smile.

"You two must be Xiao San's classmates. Come with me. Let's go find Xiao San together."

Xiao Tian and Xiao Wu nodded as well and followed behind him.

This was Xiao Tian's first time meeting Old Jack. Sure enough, just like in the original work, he was quite kind.

Afterward, Old Jack naturally gave Tang San a letter left behind by Tang Hao, telling him that his father had left to take care of something.

Xiao Tian secretly laughed. Tang Hao had left my ass—he was hiding somewhere nearby!

Tang San looked over the letter and took a deep breath. He had known all along that his father must have been hiding something from him.

He guessed that his father was very likely a reclusive powerhouse, like those sweeping monks from the sects in his previous life—seemingly ordinary, yet actually one of the strongest people in the sect.

Moreover, after studying theoretical knowledge with his teacher for a year, he naturally knew that martial soul inheritance came from one's parents, and the stronger the martial soul, the higher the Innate Soul Power.

His martial souls were Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer, belonging to his mother and father respectively.

And it was not just his father—even his teacher had said that he must not reveal the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul unless absolutely necessary.

Could revealing the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul to outsiders bring serious consequences?

For example, being hunted down?

Tang San was no ordinary child beneath the surface. The Tang Sect he came from in his previous life had been an assassin sect, so he understood such matters even better.

Tang San murmured softly, "Dad, wait for me. I'll cultivate diligently. One day, I'll become strong enough to make you tell me the truth yourself!"

However, since his father had already left Holy Soul Village, there was no longer any need for him to return here in the future.

Tang San wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes and calmly expressed his thanks to Old Jack.
