Chapter 91 - 91: Comprehending Sword Intent 1
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!— Those were flying swords!
According to the Heaven and Earth Qianhe Array, Qin Changqing disassembled the attacking part of it and created a simple sword array.
Then he controlled it with the Heaven and Earth Trinity Sword Array method.
A total of ninety-nine flying swords!
In terms of power, it was somewhat weaker than the Trinity Sword Formation.
But what it lacked in power, it made up for in quantity, making it highly effective against groups.
At this moment, the flying swords burst forth, causing a drastic change in the expressions of the Gongsun family members; those with weaker strength were instantly killed by the flying swords!
“This kid even knows sword formations!” Gongsun Zhi was shocked in his heart.
As for the news about Qin Changqing breaking the Heaven and Earth Qianhe Array, people like Mu Yuntao had sealed off the news, so outsiders were completely unaware of it.
“Kill him first!”
After the surprise, Gongsun Zhi decisively ordered.
However, the flying swords blocked most of the people, and those who managed to rush over were stopped by Qin Lingshuang and the others.
It has to be said that there is a significant gap between the strength of sect disciples and cultivators from outside.
Murong Xue, who was only Tier 6 Foundation Establishment, could still have the upper hand against Gongsun family members at Tier 8 Foundation Establishment.
As for Liu Siqi, with her Tier 8 Foundation Establishment strength, no one from the Gongsun Family could stop her except Gongsun Zhi himself.
Finally, there was Qin Lingshuang, who was at the Foundation Establishment
Peak, her mastery of the sword technique partnered with the Autumn Rain Sword. She almost killed Gongsun Zhi, a half-step Golden Elixir expert, with a single confrontation.
Under the combined efforts of the four, their combat power far exceeded expectations.
Seeing the members of the Gongsun family being killed one by one and falling from the sky, the loose cultivators who had been looking forward to an intense battle were dumbfounded.
“This…”
The battle was indeed fierce.
But why was it so one-sided?!
Were Foundation Building Cultivators so worthless now?
They had never seen anything like this, so they were shocked.
However, this was not unexpected for Qin Changqing.
Even if he had not set up the sword array in advance, he was confident that he could kill all these people.
The difference was that if the members of the Gongsun family spread out, not only would they pose a threat to the Qin family members, but they would also have the possibility of escape.
But now that they were trapped in the sword array, they had nowhere to go, neither up into the sky nor under the ground!
“Stop! Stop! Patriarch Qin, everything is negotiable!” Gongsun Zhi was beaten by Qin Lingshuang without any power to fight back and had no choice but to submit completely.
However, Qin Changqing’s response was to send thirty flying swords to stab him, chilling him to the core.
With Gongsun Zhi’s death, Gongsun Ming was beheaded by Murong Xue, and the rest were mostly killed by Qin Changqing’s flying swords.
In just less than a quarter of an hour.
The Gongsun family was wiped out!
“Hiss!”
The onlookers gasped in shock.
“They’re all dead!”
Qin Changqing stood on the flying sword, his expression calm, and silently shook his head.
“My heart leaned toward mercy, but mercy did not save me.”
He opened the system prompt and saw two messages inside.
[Congratulations, your Family Fortune is over 20000, the aptitude of all the members of your family has slightly improved, special physique awakening detection is underway, 5% chance to awaken special physique…Ding- Qin Lingshuang has successfully awakened the ‘Selfless Sword Body’, current stage: Primary, effect: greatly enhance the understanding of swordsmanship, comprehend the Selfless Sword Intent.]
[Ding- Congratulations, host, on awakening a special physique, please select the awakening route- 1 Physique 2 Spiritual Root 3 Fortune]
Success!
Seeing this message, Qin Changqing smiled slightly.
Apparently, seizing the industry was not simply about stationing people inside. If this was an unclaimed fairy mine, the system would have immediately judged it as the Qin family’s industry once they took possession.
But if it belonged to someone else, it would have to be acquired through certain means.
Like buying or stealing.
Now that Qin Changqing had killed Gongsun Zhi and the others, the fairy mine truly belonged to the Qin family.
Naturally, the Family Fortune would increase.lf it gets snatched away again later, the Qi fortune would likely decrease.
Although the Qin family could snatch it back, Qin Changqing reckoned that the reward would definitely be gone since the system wouldn’t allow such a bug.
But this was already enough.
And there were unexpected surprises as well.
“I didn’t expect Sister Lingshuang to awaken a sword body… wow, the Selfless Sword Body, it sounds formidable.”
Although Qin Changqing was at the bottom rung when he was in Xuanyi Peak, he still knew quite a bit about theoretical knowledge.
The Selfless Sword Body belonged to one type of innate sword body. The awakened person is born with the ability to comprehend sword intent, and their sword cultivation speed is greatly increased. Such people are basically born sword cultivators.
It should be known that sword intent is extremely difficult to comprehend.
It’s different from sword momentum, which can be gradually understood by learning sword techniques, and even many powerful sword techniques contain sword momentum effects.
But sword intent requires cultivators to comprehend it on their own.
It’s about transcending sword momentum and reaching a higher level of swordsmanship.
The difficulty is not ordinary.
However, the difficulty is high, so is the power.
Especially when sword cultivators face off, those who have comprehended sword intent are worlds apart from those who haven’t.
With one sword stroke, the intent comes to life, and the opponent is already affected by the sword intent before knowing the sword moves, weakening their combat power by a third.
Moreover, innate sword bodies have far greater effects on the display of sword intent than ordinary sword cultivators. Once the sword body reaches perfection, one can merge their body with swordsmanship and seize the opportunity to become a true sword daoist.
These things were mentioned to him before by MO Jiuzhou during idle chats.
Qin Changqing initially thought that the old man was just bragging.
But now it seems that it should be true.
In this sense, although Qin Lingshuang’s spiritual root is only superior-quality seventh-tier, her future chance of becoming a daoist is not lower than that of those with super spiritual roots!
With a touch of emotion, Qin Changqing felt that Qin Lingshuang really deserved such fortune.
At the same time, he looked forward to it. If his junior sister could awaken a super constitution, maybe he could awaken a sword body too.
Qin Changqing cast a glance at Qin Lingshuang, who was in the distance.
The latter was suspended in the air, seemingly entering a mysterious state.
After pondering for a while, he didn’t immediately choose to awaken the constitution but instead suspended his flying sword in mid-air, standing guard beside Qin Lingshuang to guard against sneak attacks.
He then called Murong Xue and Liu Siqi to gather the storage bags of the Gongsun family together.
It has to be said that the heritage of the old family is indeed profound. The spirit stones on these people added up to more than 200,000.
Especially Gongsun Yang, who alone had carried 100,000 spirit stones, as well as a large number of magical tools and spirit grass. It is rare to see someone carrying so much stuff while traveling outside, so it is estimated that he must have stuffed his father’s legacy.
Qin Changqing accepted all of it.
“What’s going on with Sister Qin?” Murong Xue asked, looking puzzled at Qin Lingshuang.
“She’s in contemplation, I guess.” Qin Changqing was not sure either. “Now is a critical moment, just don’t let anyone disturb her.”
As he spoke, he glanced at the distance, where many loose cultivators who had followed the Gongsun family were hanging back, no one daring to approach.
About an hour later,
Qin Lingshuang finished her contemplation.
A sharp sword intent emanated from her body.
Although it only lasted for a brief moment, Qin Changqing clearly felt that the 99 flying swords almost escaped from his control.
Clang-
The sound of sword vibrations faintly echoed.
“What a powerful force.” Qin Changqing was amazed.
“Senior Brother.” Qin Lingshuang opened her eyes, her face filled with joy, “I’ve comprehended the sword intent!”
She didn’t know about the sword body, for it would only gradually reveal itself as the sword intent improved.
“Congratulations.” Qin Changqing smiled lightly. “Are you confident about the
Tianti Road now?”
“Yes!”
Qin Lingshuang nodded vigorously.
Sword intent is no cabbage.
Very few Golden Elixir Realm cultivators comprehend the ‘intent,’ and sword intent is mainly used for attack, extremely powerful in its lethality.
Although her cultivation level was still shallow, there were many restrictions on Tianti Road, so it was not based solely on one’s cultivation level to go further..
