Chapter 580: Chapter 579: Sword Intention Transformed into Sword

The thirty-first step!

When Lin Bai stepped onto the thirty-first step, at this moment, the sword intentions on Sword Saint Mountain came in waves. They transformed into sharp swords in front of Lin Bai’s eyes, slamming down.

"On the steps of the thirty-first step, sword intent has become a sword!"

"But what about that? You can’t stop me!"

Lin Bai’s eyes dimmed, and his sword intent spread out. His Silver War Body began to materialize.

Lin Bai held onto the unreal sword formed by sword intention and proceeded upwards, step by step.

"The endpoint of the first-order Sword Intent should be these thirty steps of Sword Intent!"

"And with my mid-stage second-order Sword Intent, I should easily be able to reach the seventieth or so step!"

"If I go further up, I’ll need to use True Qi and my physical body to resist the Sword Intent and walk upwards."

When Lin Bai was rapidly stepping upwards, he divided the power of Sword Intent on Sword Saint Mountain.

Below thirty steps, one needs the first order Sword Intent to climb up.

Below sixty steps, one needs the second order Sword Intent to climb up.

Below ninety steps, one needs the third order Sword Intent to climb up!

And the nine steps above ninety steps, these were the most critical nine steps to test a sword cultivator.

Even Feng Yunxiu was no exception, because among all the sword cultivators in the Lingdong 700 States, even Jian Ruohan, Feng Yunxiu, Yejian Qiu, and the peak of their Sword Intent were only at the early stage of third-order Sword Intent!

Whereas Yuwen Jianguo, Wu Wei, Fu Yiling, Prince of Fire Sword, Gentle Breeze Hermit, the Sword Intent of these people, were only in the state of Great Perfection of the second-order Sword Intent.

Other sword cultivators, like Lin Bai, were mostly at the mid-stage of second-order Sword Intent.

Lin Bai continued to ascend rapidly.

Second-order Sword Intent cultivation allowed Lin Bai to traverse the sixty-step staircase without any difficulty.

Sixty-first step!

Sixty-second step!

Sixty-fifth step!

Seventieth step!

Seventy-fifth step!

When Lin Bai reached the seventy-fifth step, he looked up and saw that Yejian Qiu, Jian Ruohan, and Feng Yunxiu had already stepped onto the ninety-first step!

"Let’s continue."

Lin Bai muttered lightly, taking a step onto the seventy-sixth step.

All of a sudden, as Lin Bai’s foot pressed onto the seventy-sixth step, a Sword Intent as heavy as a mountain came crashing down on his body.

Thump! Thump!

Taken by surprise, Lin Bai took three steps back and almost retreated to the seventy-fifth step.

"As expected, I guessed correctly. With my cultivation level at mid-stage of the second-order Sword Intent, stepping onto the seventy-fifth step is already my limit. If I want to continue going upwards, I will have to resist the Sword Intent of Sword Saint Mountain with my True Qi and physical body!"

Lin Bai’s eyes were bright. He had long known about this outcome, so he had prepared himself in his heart.

Otherwise, when Lin Bai stepped onto the seventy-sixth step, that wave of sword intent alone would have been enough to repel him.

Now standing on the seventy-fifth step, Lin Bai felt the overwhelming Sword Intent on his shoulder, immobilizing him.

"Go!"

With his teeth clenched tightly and his face flushed red, the True Qi and physical strength inside Lin Bai’s body erupted. He painstakingly lifted his foot, stepping onto the seventy-seventh step.

Seventy-seventh step!

Seventy-eighth step!

Seventy-ninth step!

Eightieth step!

When Lin Bai stepped onto the eightieth step, his body’s meridians bulged, and his blood in his body surged as if it would burst out.

Thump! Thump! Thump—

At that very moment, the blood vessels on Lin Bai’s skin began to rupture, causing blood to flow out.

"Eighty steps is already the limit of the second-order sword intention!"

"But it’s not my limit!"

"Silver War Body!"

With a roar in his heart, Lin Bai condensed the Silver War Body, releasing the pressure on his shoulders. Gathering his might, he advanced three steps with his face!

Eighty-three steps!

"Sword Intention! Divine Skill!"

"Gentle Sword!"

"Waning Flower!"

"Wind-Slaying!"

Lin Bai continuously channeled his Sword Intention, using Sword Intent Divine Skill to resist the pressure of Sword Saint Mountain.

As the pressure of Sword Saint Mountain dissipated, Lin Bai felt a sense of release, a glimmer of joy appearing in his brow, and charged three steps forward!

Eighty-six steps!

Rumble——

When Lin Bai stepped on the eighty-sixth step, a force akin to divine punishment hit him.

Splurt——

Lin Bai spewed a mouthful of fresh blood.

On the eighty-sixth step, not only was there Lin Bai, but thousands of other warriors. All of them were standing on the eighty-sixth step covered in blood, their pale faces looking upwards towards Sword Saint Mountain.

"Could this be the limit?"

Lin Bai said unbelievably.

"There is no other way, I have to use the power of Martial Soul!"

Lin Bai looked around warily as he began to channel the power of Martial Soul.

The power of the Devouring Sword Spirit dispersed, and within Lin Bai’s body, it felt like a huge whirlpool was forming, swallowing all the Sword Intentions that were attacking him into the Sword Spirit.

The Sword Intentions from Sword Saint Mountain entered the body of Lin Bai and were instantly devoured by the Devouring Sword Spirit.

As the Sword Intentions were devoured, the pressure on Lin Bai’s body was significantly reduced, and it didn’t feel as uncomfortable.

"The Devouring Sword Spirit can devour Sword Intentions, but unfortunately, Sword Intentions are a kind of will. After the Devouring Sword Spirit devours them, it grinds that Sword Intention into nothingness, disappearing into the void, unable to transform into spirit qi that could enhance my cultivation or Sword Intention!"

Lin Bai said with a sense of dismay.

Although the Devouring Sword Spirit was against heaven’s will, it could only refine and consume Demon Blood and the blood of warriors to enhance Lin Bai’s cultivation.

In the past, Lin Bai attempted to refine the spirit qi in the Spiritual Stone using the Devouring Sword Spirit. Although it worked, Lin Bai realized that after the spirit qi in the Spiritual Stone was devoured, it diminished by two-thirds, providing Lin Bai with only one tenth!

This means that after the spirit qi in a Spiritual Stone is refined and filtered using the Devouring Sword Spirit, only one tenth of the refined spirit qi is given to Lin Bai, while the rest is expelled by the Devouring Sword Spirit.

Such wastage was intolerable.

As such, Lin Bai had stopped using the Devouring Sword Spirit to refine Spirit Stones for cultivation.

Back in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains, Lin Bai had nearly exhausted all the spirit qi by using the Old Divine Tree as a medium, which led to his breakthrough in a state!

For Lin Bai, the quickest method of cultivation was still to devour and refine Demon Blood and the blood of warriors!

Nevertheless, Lin Bai was satisfied as there were plenty of warriors’ blood and Demon Blood in this world!

Moreover, the higher the cultivation of a warrior whose blood was devoured and refined, the better the purity of the blood, and the more spirit qi it would provide to Lin Bai.

The Devouring Sword Spirit was running, crazily shattering all the Sword Intentions hitting Lin Bai!

Giving Lin Bai a sense of relief and making his discomfort disappear!

Immediately, Lin Bai calmly walked upwards, feeling only a slight pressure, which to him, had become negligible.

At this very moment,

suddenly at the pinnacle of the swordbody, the Famous Sword Manor’s Treasure, the Sword of the Firmament, which had been embedded on the mountaintop for thousands of years and had not been pulled out by any warrior, started to vibrate violently.

A majestic voice entered Lin Bai’s ears: "To Devour Sword Spirit is to defy both Heaven and Earth! I’m Heaven’s chosen, destined to annihilate it!"
