After the thirty-sixth step, the swordsmanship that Lu Xuan had to face changed again. Although every set of swordsmanship was different, the concept behind it was the same. Therefore, Lu Xuan could use the same method to break the swordsmanship.
After taking 36 steps in a row, Lu Xuan had some guesses about the next round of the test. It was obvious that while it was a test of the Hundred Schools of Martial Arts, it was divided into several major stages.
Lu Xuan was able to easily make it through the first 18 steps with his sword will at the initial stage, and he made it through the last 18 steps with his sword will at the intermediate stage. However, there were still 64 more steps to go, and Lu Xuan had no idea how many more stages he would have to go.
The medium sword intent was not enough to break the thirty-seventh warrior's swordsmanship. Fortunately, Lu Xuan's sword intent had reached the large success stage. Although he didn't have a sword in his hand, he had a sword in his heart.
Lu Xuan kept defending the sword in his heart. He didn't care about anything else and continued to walk forward. The thirty-sixth step was not enough to stop him.
This step meant that Lu Xuan had crossed another stage. As he kept moving forward, Bing Ling felt even more happy. Lu Xuan's performance was really satisfying. As the guardian of an inheritance, what could make her happier than finding a suitable inheritor?
However, she also knew that the further he went, the more difficult it would be. Right now, Lu Xuan was completely relying on his own power to break the swordsmanship. Once his power was exhausted, Lu Xuan would need to make another breakthrough. The reason why there was no time limit for this test was also because of this.
"I hope you can make a breakthrough as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will be very difficult for you to pass all five tests." Bing Ling looked at Lu Xuan and said.
The thirty-seventh step, the thirty-eighth step …
With the sword intent of the large success stage, Lu Xuan walked more than half of the distance. He didn't stop until the eighty-first step. It wasn't that he didn't want to continue, but the eighty-second warrior had completely blocked Lu Xuan's way!
With the sword intent of the large success stage and the sword in his heart, Lu Xuan tried three times in a row and failed three times. It seemed that this was the end for him.
"Finally … I'm stuck?" Lu Xuan let out a long sigh of relief. He knew that with his sword intent of the large success stage, he wouldn't be able to finish the last part of the test. How could it be so easy to pass the test left by the ice phoenix?
Looking at Lu Xuan, Bing Ling was also worried. After hesitating for a long time, she finally said, "You've found the right path, but it's not enough to pass the test. Unless you can make another breakthrough, you will have to stop here."
Normally, Bing Ling shouldn't remind Lu Xuan to pass the test, but she was worried. She was worried that Lu Xuan would be wrong and he would be wrong. So Lu Phoenix Lu Xuan was reminded... Lu. Lu Lu Xuan Lu. Lu.
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Bing Ling." Lu Xuan cupped his hands in the air and thanked Bing Ling for her guidance. Although he knew that he was on the right path, he was more certain that Bing Ling could help him.
Lu Xuan didn't try to pass the test. Instead, he sat down with his legs crossed and forcefully suppressed the countercharge of the Nether Blood Curse. He kept thinking about the scenes that happened along the way.
Lu Xuan took 81 steps in a row, witnessing 81 completely different sets of exquisite sword techniques. That definitely broadened his horizons and greatly broadened his horizons.
Every set of swordsmanship of this level could be placed in the Wind Sword School or even the Ice Pavilion. If it wasn't for this place, Lu Xuan wouldn't be able to see so many exquisite swordsmanship even if he went through the entire Ice Pavilion. Although it didn't increase his strength significantly, the accumulation was extremely precious. As the saying goes, "Thick accumulation leads to thin growth." Everything that Lu Xuan experienced was the process of accumulation.
"I've completely grasped the sword intent of the Great Accomplishment Stage. Even after the training of eighty-one steps, my sword intent of the Great Accomplishment Stage has almost reached perfection. Now, I must comprehend the sword intent above the Great Accomplishment Stage. I must make my sword intent reach its peak, otherwise, I won't be able to make any progress." Lu Xuan thought to himself. He was very clear about the current situation.
However, it didn't mean that he could do it. No one could help him. The only person he could rely on was himself.
Sets of swordsmanship kept flashing in Lu Xuan's mind. The profound meaning of the sword intent from the Small Accomplishment Stage to the Great Accomplishment Stage was also recalled and calculated by Lu Xuan over and over again.
Every cycle would deepen Lu Xuan's understanding of the sword intent. He seemed to feel that the peak of the sword intent was right in front of him. He only needed to pierce through a thin layer in front of him and he would be able to reach it. However, no matter how hard he tried, he was still a little bit away from it. This was the so-called So Close Yet So Far Away. It seemed to be so close, but it was actually so far away.
"The Small Accomplishment Sword Intent and the Unity of Man and Sword. The Middle Accomplishment Sword Intent and the Great Accomplishment Sword Intent have a sword in my heart. But what is the peak of the sword intent?" Lu Xuan thought hard.
He felt that this seemed to be the peak of the sword intent. Not only was it the Unity of Man and Sword, but it was also the sword in his heart. It seemed that nothing was lacking, but he always felt that something was missing.
Time passed bit by bit. Lu Xuan's breathing became more and more rapid. More importantly, he felt that his thoughts were already a little chaotic. He could vaguely see a trace of hallucination. This would definitely not happen under normal circumstances. However, he was currently in the outbreak period of the Nether Blood Curse. If he hadn't been forcefully suppressing it, the inner demons would have completely broken out. However, there was always a limit to the power of the will, and it was impossible to suppress it indefinitely.
Just when Lu Xuan was almost completely immersed in it, a stunning sword light suddenly flashed in his mind. It was the extremely powerful first move of the Nine Heavenly Sword Tiers, the Unity of Man and Nature.
Looking at this sword again, Lu Xuan couldn't help but be a little distracted. He thought in a daze, "Who on earth has such a powerful sword?"
At this moment, Lu Xuan suddenly had a flash of inspiration. He quivered and suddenly woke up. He seemed to have grasped a key point!
No matter how powerful the swordsmanship was, it still needed someone to control it. It was the same for the almost perfect Nine Heavenly Sword Tiers!
The Unity of Man and Sword, the sword in all things, and the sword in his heart. The only thing that was missing was the sword in his hand!
The sword was the sword, a pure sword. Whether it was the sword in his heart, the sword in all things, or the sword in his body, they were all just swords. And the foundation of the sword was the sword in his hand!
At this critical moment, Lu Xuan had completely comprehended the essence of the Pinnacle Sword Intent!
The sword was the sword. I have the sword, and you don't have the sword. I win. This was the essence and mystery of the Pinnacle Sword Intent!
At the same time, an extremely powerful sword intent was instantly emitted from Lu Xuan's body. The sword intent soared into the sky and was unstoppable!
With the sudden comprehension of the Pinnacle Sword Intent, Lu Xuan's inner demons were once again suppressed by the powerful sword intent. He regained his consciousness.
Lu Xuan opened his eyes quickly and looked at the eighty-second martial artist in front of him. At this moment, he was no longer confused, nor did he ponder. Instead, a confident smile appeared on his face. He was confident that he could overcome this hurdle with the help of the Pinnacle Sword Intent that he had just comprehended.
"Comprehending it so quickly? Such a powerful sword intent is definitely the Pinnacle Sword Intent! Comprehending the Pinnacle Sword Intent in the second layer of the Spirit Cultivation Realm. You are indeed a genius! " Bing Ling said with joy. Although she had told Lu Xuan that he only needed to make a breakthrough, she did not expect Lu Xuan to make a breakthrough so quickly. Once the Pinnacle Sword Intent was unleashed, the eighty-second martial artist could no longer stop him.
Walking forward again, Lu Xuan looked at the martial artist in front of him and said excitedly, "Let's test my Pinnacle Sword Intent on you first. Let's see if you can still stop me from now on!"
Now, Lu Xuan had completely reached the state of returning to simplicity. The Heart Sword and All Creation Sword were just means. The real sword was what he saw, the sword in his hand!
Although many low-level martial artists who had yet to comprehend the Pinnacle Sword Intent believed in the sword in their hand, they were unable to comprehend the essence of the Pinnacle Sword Intent. This was because the improvement of the Pinnacle Sword Intent was originally a pursuit of the Sword Principle. If one did not experience the initial, middle, and advanced sword intent, they would not be able to comprehend the mystery of the sword in their hand.
The so-called sword in the hand was just a saying. The real core was Lu Xuan's understanding of the sword in his hand.
Taking a big step forward, Lu Xuan did not wait for the martial artist to attack and attacked first. It was the Blink Sword Art. But was it really the Blink Sword Art? No, the Blink Sword Art was just a surface. What it contained was Lu Xuan's understanding of the sword in his hand. Since both sides could not use their Yuan Force, for Lu Xuan, the Blink Sword Art was no different from the Proud Dragon Shows Remorse.
The eighty-second set of martial arts was easily broken by Lu Xuan with one sword strike!
Seeing the martial artists in front of him disappear, Lu Xuan was even more determined. Without any hesitation, he took another step forward and faced the next set of martial arts.
"Eighty-three, eighty-four … ninety-five … ninety-eight …" Bing Ling kept counting Lu Xuan's steps. It seemed like the hundred martial arts were about to be broken by Lu Xuan. Passing the fourth level was just around the corner.
However, enlightenment was not so simple. Lu Xuan defeated the ninety-nine martial artists in one breath. He was only one step away from passing the level. However, this one step was a thousand miles away.
The last shroud of mist coalesced into the last warrior. All of the mist in the stone chamber had dissipated, and Lu Xuan was able to easily see the stone door leading to the fifth test. However, that last warrior seemed to be an extremely sturdy obstacle, blocking Lu Xuan's way.
Yes, Lu Xuan was stuck again. He was stuck at the last step. After ninety-nine steps, when the hundred martial arts were about to be broken, he was still stopped.
Just now, when he exchanged a move with the last martial artist, he found that he could not parry it at all. It looked like an ordinary sword strike, but it carried a different kind of mystery and beauty. The peak sword intent that he was so proud of was not a match for this sword.
