After watching for three days, Lan Xian 'er returned to the surface under Ye Chen's instructions and continued to stab the Star Iron Pillar.
Five days later, Lan Xian 'er had stabbed two-thirds of the way through. She had reached the Third Drive realm, but the Third Drive could not overlap with the previous two drives. It was not complete, so she could not pierce through the Star Iron Pillar.
"Just a bit more."
Lan Xian 'er returned to the surface to watch Ye Chen forge swords.
Ye Chen's swordsmithing technique had long reached the realm of perfection. He had been able to forge twelve supreme-grade swords in a month because he could see through it. He did not hesitate when forging swords. Every time the hammer fell, he was one step closer to completion. There was no hesitation, no sluggishness. Rather than saying he was forging swords, it was more like he was practicing swords. He practiced to his heart's content. There was no hesitation, no sluggishness. Every move was natural. Sometimes, even he did not know why he would swing the hammer.
Clang!
Another hammer fell, and sparks flew in all directions. It contained a peerless sword intent. Lan Xian 'er wanted to dodge, but she didn't know why she couldn't. With a puchi sound, several sparks pierced through her body, burning her flesh. What was even more terrifying was that even though it was just a few sparks, it was like an invincible sword qi, exploding bloody holes in her body one after another. Countless fine sword qi minced her flesh and blood.
"Did you comprehend it?"
Ye Chen asked.
"I see. Thank you, Mister Ye."
Using the Immortal Body, Lan Xian 'er returned to the surface.
Standing in front of the Star Pillar, she stood there for a day and a night. At dawn, she suddenly pulled out her sword and stabbed at the Star Pillar. The speed of this stab was unparalleled, like a sword from the gods.
Pfft!
The Star Iron Pillar was pierced through. Countless cracks appeared around the hole. This was the destructive power of the Third Drive.
The wind blew, and the Star Iron Pillar completely fell apart.
After piercing through the Star Iron Pillar, Lan Xian 'er smiled. Third Drive had been completed. The next five months should be enough for her to open the Anatta Realm. However, when she thought of the flying sparks, she couldn't help but shiver. Sir Ye's realm had indeed reached an unfathomable realm. Every spark contained the Third Drive. Although not much power was poured into it, it was still shocking.
"Young Master Ye is forging a sword, so it's not a good idea to disturb him. I'll continue to familiarize myself with the mysteries of 3rd Drive!"
Lan Xian 'er was not in a hurry to find Ye Chen. It was already her fortune that Ye Chen could teach her. Because she wanted to open the Anatta Realm, she had to interrupt other people's business. She could not do such a thing, nor could she forgive it.
Three Stacks was broad and profound. In the early stages, one could only use it wholeheartedly. In the middle stages, one could use it at will. In the late stages, one could use it at will. As long as one wanted, one could use it from any part of their body. As for Ye Chen's Three Stacks, which could only be executed with sparks flying everywhere, it was impossible to estimate his realm.
Another six days passed, and the month was up.
At this time, Lan Xian 'er had already stabilized the Third Drive. She could be considered to be at the peak of the early stages of the Third Drive. As long as she wasn't too distracted, she could use the Third Drive.
"The Third Drive is indeed powerful. When the Third Drive is combined, it's not as simple as three times the power. The Third Drive is already more than ten times the power, and it can completely destroy matter."
The First Drive could shatter the structure of matter, the Second Drive could destroy matter itself, and the Third Drive could annihilate matter's most basic molecules.
"It seems that you have stabilized the Third Drive. Next, I will help you open the Anatta Realm. Originally, after comprehending the Third Drive, you should have touched the Anatta Realm. However, because the time was too short, you didn't have much time to comprehend it. Under normal circumstances, it would take at least three years."
The Third Drive was a checkpoint. Breaking through to the Third Drive meant touching the Anatta Realm. Lan Xian 'er had lost too much time to comprehend, and now, Ye Chen wanted to help her break through to the Anatta Realm.
Helping someone break through to the Anatta Realm wasn't something that could be done just by saying it. Ye Chen was certain that he could do it because every single one of his cells contained the rank five Immortal Sword Intent. Under the operation of the Sword Intent, he could already deduce a trace of the mysteries of his cells. It might only be a thousandth or even a ten-thousandth of the mysteries, but he still grasped a trace.
The Anatta Realm was the effective use of the body's potential under the Anatta Realm. This potential was the potential of the cells. Of course, there was no such thing as cells in this world. It was usually described as particles of flesh and blood.
As long as he could force out a trace of the cell's potential and combine it with the state of mind, he would be able to achieve the profound meaning of the Anatta Realm. At that time, he would naturally be able to effectively use the potential under the Anatta Realm.
The Third Drive had already given Lan Xian 'er the foundation to open the Anatta Realm. What Ye Chen needed to do next was to push the boat with the current.
"Force out the human body's potential and enter the stage of forcing out the human body's potential at any time. These are two steps. Attack me with all your strength and don't hold back. The stronger, the better."
Ye Chen said.
"Yes, Mister Ye, be careful."
Lan Xian 'er really didn't hold back. She knew very well that even if her strength increased several times, she wouldn't be able to do anything to Ye Chen. Holding the sword in her hand, Lan Xian' er slashed at Ye Chen with all her strength.
Ye Chen stretched out his right hand and spread his fingers.
Clang!
The palm and sword collided, and Lan Xian 'er took half a step back. The strong shockwave spread out and was absorbed by the restrictions and formations in the courtyard.
"Okay, I already know your limit."
The second time they fought, Ye Chen only used the same amount of strength as his opponent.
The third time was the same.
…
On the eighteenth time, Ye Chen's strength began to increase, but it was only a trace. Lan Xian 'er could still withstand it.
The nineteenth time!
The twentieth time!
…
The ninety-eighth time!
Lan Xian 'er couldn't take it anymore. Ye Chen only increased his strength by a little each time. It didn't seem much, but it was like adding straw to a camel. One day, the camel would be crushed and couldn't get up again.
The hundredth time, blood flowed from the corner of Lan Xian 'er's mouth.
…
The two-hundredth time.
…
The three-hundredth time.
Puff!
Lan Xian 'er spat out a mouthful of blood, and her face was pale gold.
"I think you should be able to last until the four-hundredth time. At the five-hundredth time, your whole body will collapse and your life will be hanging by a thread," Ye Chen said.
"Mister Ye, continue!"
Lan Xian 'er said firmly.
"Okay."
Ye Chen nodded. He increased his strength bit by bit to force out the other's potential. The reason why he didn't increase his strength to the limit that the other could bear was because it was too dangerous. If he wasn't careful, he could kill the other. If he did that, the other wouldn't be able to comprehend too much. It was the demonic path, not the right path.
Of course, not everyone could do what Ye Chen did. Not to mention Ye Chen's realm, just his soul power that was ten times stronger was rare. There had never been a second person who could do it.
The four-hundredth time!
The four-hundredth time!
Lan Xian 'er exploded into a bloody mist. After the bloody mist condensed into a human body, her eyes began to dim.
The five-hundredth time.
Bang!
This time, Lan Xian 'er only kept a part of the bloody mist.
"Continue after a week."
In the first five hundred attacks, Ye Chen didn't use his sword intent. If he did, it would erase the other's soul and will. If it accumulated, she would die without a doubt. But even without sword intent, enduring five hundred attacks from Ye Chen wasn't a good thing. Lan Xian 'er felt very tired. She couldn't lift any strength in her body. She felt that something was wrong.
The Undying Body also had a limit. It couldn't be used too many times. Obviously, Lan Xian 'er's Undying Body was reaching its limit.
A week later.
The two fought seven hundred and twenty times.
Another week later.
The two fought a thousand times.
…
Week after week.
Three and a half months had passed since Lan Xian 'er came to Fallen Dust Sword Pavilion.
"It's time to break through."
This time, the two fought one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight times.
After one thousand eight hundred and eighty-eight times.
Boom!
A terrifying aura burst out from Lan Xian 'er's body. This was a phenomenon forced out by her potential. Lan Xian' er's hair grew longer and shone blue. Her eyes turned silver and extremely focused.
Under the Selfless Realm, her battle intent awakened and she continued to fight with Ye Chen.
Ye Chen smiled indifferently and chose to collide with the opponent with the same amount of strength. Then, he increased his strength every time. It seemed to be endless. But now he began to pour sword intent. Under the Selfless Realm, Lan Xian 'er's battle power reached its peak. Without sword intent, Ye Chen couldn't increase his strength again and again.
Lan Xian 'er didn't last long after entering the Selfless Realm for the first time. It was about fifteen minutes. During this time, she improved a lot. Part of her potential had been transformed into her own battle power. This was the abnormality of the Selfless Realm. Every time she used it, she would become stronger. Of course, the Selfless Realm was entered by forcing one's potential. No one dared to enter the Selfless Realm too often. Although it was possible to improve by leaps and bounds, it was also possible to kill the goose that laid the golden eggs. It would lead to the exhaustion of one's potential and they would never be able to enter the Selfless Realm again.
Step by step, this was the right way.
After all, the potential was limitless, and the human body had its limits.
Nearly four months passed, and the Heavenly King level sword that Ye Chen had started to forge was finally completed. In these four months, he didn't spend much time teaching Lan Xian 'er. He came out once a week, and each time was only about an hour. The rest of the time was spent on forging the sword.
Hum!
On this day, the sound of the sword soared into the sky, shattering the clouds. The peerless sword qi was like a divine dragon, noble and fierce.
Underground, Ye Chen held a peerless sword in his hand.
This sword was four feet and two inches long. The body of the sword was like an ancient spring, but it was also suffused with traces of platinum gold. It was hard and soft, and looking down at the sword was like climbing a mountain and looking into an abyss. It was ethereal and deep, as if there were streams of clear spring water flowing down, unfathomable. With a flick of his wrist, the body of the sword was like a spirit snake, constantly changing. It was impossible to know where the tip of the sword would appear. It seemed that any point could be attacked, and there were no blind spots.
"I'll call you the Dragon Spring Sword!"
The Dragon Spring Sword was hard and soft at the same time. When it was hard, it was invincible, cutting through everything. When it was soft, it was like a stream of water, piercing through any gap. This sword was a Heavenly King level sword with a combination of metal and water attributes.
