Early in the morning, the sun was shining brightly.
Three days had passed since the second stage of the competition. In these three days, Lin Xuan had already recuperated from his injuries and stabilized his realm at the sixth stage of the Meridian Condensation realm.
In these three days, many people came to see him, but he rejected them all with the excuse of recuperating. He knew the purpose of these disciples. They wanted to build a relationship with him and obtain benefits.
During this period, the black lotus in his body appeared once again, shocking both him and Lord Alcohol. Lin Xuan had also asked Lord Alcohol about the origins of the black lotus. This time, Lord Alcohol didn't beat around the bush and directly said that he didn't know.
Lin Xuan repeatedly asked. Lord Alcohol muttered a few words, and he vaguely heard something about not being in the same reincarnation cycle.
However, Lord Alcohol planned to take action once. He took out the black lotus and let Lin Xuan study it carefully.
"In my current state, I can only take action once. You have to grasp the opportunity well," Lord Alcohol said.
"Okay." Lin Xuan nodded solemnly. He closed his eyes and pondered. He looked into his body and carefully scanned every inch. Not long after, the mysterious sword in his body suddenly trembled. A tiny sword wave spread out like a wave.
Following that, a black object appeared at Lin Xuan's seventh spirit meridian. It gradually transformed into a black lotus that was extremely beautiful.
Lin Xuan focused his gaze. The black lotus suddenly wrapped around the mysterious sword with a whoosh. It kept wrapping around it, wanting to cover the entire sword.
The next moment, in the independent space inside the mysterious sword, a black lotus suddenly appeared on the desolate ground. It kept growing as though it wanted to pierce through this small world.
Lord Alcohol's expression was solemn. He condensed a wisp of sword energy and attacked the black lotus, but to no avail. He sighed helplessly. There was nothing he could do. He was just too weak now. If not for the mysterious sword, he would have died long ago.
Furthermore, the black lotus was abnormally mysterious. It had existed in an era before him, so it was normal that he couldn't do anything about it.
The black lotus grew larger and larger, about to occupy the entire space. At this moment, the withered tree suddenly emitted a faint light that swept towards the black lotus.
The lotus flower seemed to have encountered something frightening. It swayed its leaves and branches, continuously shrinking, and quickly left the mysterious little sword.
Lin Xuan sensed that the black lotus had transformed back into a black object. It was being chased by a beam of divine light. It kept running until it was finally enveloped by the beam of divine light.
Lord Alcohol's hands kept changing seals as he controlled the divine light, slowly melting the black object inside. Then, he absorbed the golden lightning in Lin Xuan's body and fused it with the divine light.
Finally, the divine light returned to the small sword.
Lord Alcohol's voice sounded from inside. "I've planted a sword intent seed in your body. It will become stronger as you grow. As long as you don't perish, you will one day become an expert in the world."
"Sword intent … seed!" Lin Xuan murmured. He knew that above the Sword Force, there was something called Sword Intent. However, it was extremely ethereal and required extremely strong comprehension and luck. Ordinary people were unable to grasp it at all. It seemed to only exist in legends.
But now, Lord Alcohol was telling him that he had a sword intent seed in his body.
This was the first time he had heard that Sword Intent could be planted with a seed. Once again, he felt a strong sense of curiosity towards the mysterious little sword and Lord Alcohol in his body.
With the sword intent seed, my strength will probably increase greatly. Lin Xuan was excited. He closed his eyes and tried to communicate with the mysterious little sword in his body.
This time, the mysterious little sword finally reacted. Lin Xuan could sense a weak golden dot of light inside the mysterious little sword. Although it was weak, it had a terrifying aura.
"Is this my Seed of Sword Intent?" Lin Xuan looked at it carefully and realized that the golden spot of light also had a lightning attribute.
"This sword intent seed was formed by the lightning in your body. You can call it Lightning Sword Intent." Lord Alcohol's voice was somewhat weak. "I can only help you with this. In the future, you will have to find the sword intent seed yourself."
"Can I still plant it?" Lin Xuan was puzzled.
"Yes, you will know in the future." Lord Alcohol smiled mysteriously.
"Alright, I'm going to sleep for a period of time. Be careful." Lord Alcohol's voice was very weak. He had expended too much energy just now.
"Remember to help me find soul-recovery medicine. Otherwise, I really won't be able to wake up," Lord Alcohol exhorted.
"Don't worry, Uncle. I will help you find it!" Lin Xuan said solemnly.
After Lord Alcohol fell into a deep sleep, Lin Xuan began studying the sword intent seed. He realized that ever since the golden sword intent seed was planted, he suddenly understood a lot more about lightning.
He didn't need to deliberately control the lightning in his body. With just a thought, he could achieve the situation he wanted.
I wonder how my Lightning Eclipse Sword Art is doing? Lin Xuan couldn't wait to try it out. To his surprise, he easily executed the third level of the Lightning Eclipse Sword Art.
The sword intent seed is so magical! Lin Xuan felt that the Lightning Eclipse Sword Art wasn't difficult for him at all. He could even easily execute the third level of Lightning Slash.
At this point, he had completely grasped the Lightning Eclipse Sword Art.
This outcome made Lin Xuan extremely happy. He decided to nurture the sword intent seed with all his might. With that, he sat cross-legged and circulated the spiritual energy in his body to nourish the seed. The golden sword intent seed was like a living body as it constantly absorbed the lightning attribute in the spiritual energy.
At the same time, it also transmitted a very magical concept. Above the nine heavens, a golden sea of lightning constantly churned. Every bolt of lightning was thicker than a person. They tore through the void in an extremely violent manner.
Lin Xuan felt as though he was in this sea of lightning as he felt the wrath of the lightning. However, this concept couldn't last for long. It could only last for a few seconds.
However, Lin Xuan believed that as the sword intent seed grew, he would once again feel that concept.
If he were to fight Shangguan Liuyun now, he was confident that he could defeat him in three moves. This was the advantage the sword intent seed gave him.
"This Seed of Sword Intent will become my greatest trump card!" Lin Xuan couldn't wait to pass the third stage.
