Chapter 2252: Chapter 2272: Can Sword Intent Absorb?_1

When Lin Chen caught sight of the sword talisman’s lines after the White Light, that terrifying Sword Intent attacked him again.

Sword Intent surged throughout Lin Chen’s body, countless strands of Sword Intent converged towards that terrifying Sword Intent, making it seem as if a group of piranhas were besieging a great white shark.

Sword Intent is not actual Sword Qi, but an intangible existence similar to a spiritual attack, a form of coercion, or an aura.

Though intangible, it still possesses terrifying lethality.

At first, Lin Chen thought he might not be able to withstand this dreadful Sword Intent; however, when his numerous Sword Intents swarmed over it, they actually weakened it considerably, and by the time this Sword Intent reached Lin Chen’s body, its killing power had significantly diminished.

With a body of Sword Bone and soaring Sword Intent, the invading Sword Intent unexpectedly came to a halt upon entering Lin Chen’s body and did not wreak havoc as furiously as before, which had caused him immense pain.

The Sword Intent did not dissipate. Lin Chen tried to use his own Sword Intent to disassemble it since he couldn’t let it linger in his mind indefinitely.

When Lin Chen’s Sword Intent dismantled this Sword Intent into pieces, it surprisingly scattered and transformed into wisps of Sword Intent, which were then absorbed by Lin Chen’s Sword Intent!

Huh?

There’s a situation here!

After scrutinizing for a long time, Lin Chen confirmed that he truly absorbed that Sword Intent.

Strange!

Can Sword Intent also be absorbed?

Isn’t this thing supposed to scatter completely upon being struck?

Lin Chen opened his eyes once more, pondered, and redirected his gaze back to those sword-edged rune lines he had been looking at.

The moment his vision touched the lines, another dreadful Sword Intent assaulted Lin Chen.

Lin Chen repeated the same trick, and shortly after, he achieved the same result.

This Sword Intent, after being weakened, really did fuse and got absorbed upon entering the eyes!

Lin Chen turned his head towards Ziyun Zunzhe and noticed she was in agony, tears of blood streaming from her eyes.

Clearly, she could not bear it, had tried it as well, and the result was the same as Lin Chen’s clone’s first attempt.

"How is it?"

After a long while, Ziyun Zunzhe recovered, shook her head with closed eyes, and said, "I can’t look anymore; can’t stand it. If I keep looking, I’m afraid I’ll go blind!"

"Your Innate Divine Powers are space abilities, which don’t have much to do with the Sword Dao. It’s normal if you can’t comprehend it."

Ziyun Zunzhe nodded, "After all, it’s a Sword Talisman powerful enough to suppress the Starry Sky Demon Beast; how could it be easily deciphered?"

Lin Chen wore a slightly odd expression, "I think I’m getting a bit of a feel for it."

Ziyun Zunzhe asked in surprise, "What feeling?"

Lin Chen narrated his recent experience, and Ziyun Zunzhe, as if enlightened, said, "Using Sword Intent to resist Sword Intent, absorbing the Sword Intent from this Sword Talisman?"

Lin Chen nodded, "I don’t know if this is the correct approach, but I have a premonition that if I absorb more of the Sword Intent released by this Sword Talisman, something surprising might happen."

Ziyun Zunzhe nodded, "Then give it another try, but don’t force it—safety first."

"Okay!"

Lin Chen once more looked at the Sword Talisman line he had been observing, still faced with strong Sword Intent, but this time, he acutely sensed that the Sword Intent’s lethality seemed to have weakened a bit.

Once, twice, thrice...

Lin Chen persistently repeated the process, continuously absorbing the terrible Sword Intent released by the Sword Talisman, and with each absorption, he joyfully discovered that the dreadful Sword Intent released by those rune lines gradually ceased to threaten him!

Initially, just glancing at the Sword Talisman line compelled him to close his eyes right away to resist the invading Sword Intent. Now, looking at it, the glaring sensation was greatly diminished, to the point where Lin Chen could gradually discern the Sword Talisman line!

Lin Chen was overjoyed. Although he didn’t know what level he needed to reach to unlock the Sword Talisman, this was at least a good start.

To decrypt a Sword Talisman, one must at least be able to clearly see it.

"Can you really do it?"

The voice of Chi Zai came again, thunderous, and Lin Chen turned and shouted, "I can already clearly see one line of runes!"

Chi Zai joyously asked, "You can see now? Didn’t you just say that your eyes were almost blinded?"

Lin Chen said with a laugh, "The clone and the true self naturally differ."

Chi Zai said with delight, "Could it be that you, kid, are truly my fated rescuer?"

Lin Chen casually replied, "You were suppressed here, always waiting for your fated rescuer to decode the Sword Talisman for you, to break the Seal and set you free, am I right?"

Chi Zai hummed with resignation, "What else could it be? Besides this, what else do you think I can do?"

Lin Chen continued to inquire, "About this fated rescuer thing, do you know that there would be one to save you?"

Chi Zai answered, "That person calculated it. He told me my fate wasn’t over, and if he wasn’t wrong, I would wait for a fated rescuer to unlock this Sword Talisman Seal for me..."

Lin Chen was startled, looked down towards the darkness leading to an unknown place, and asked, "Are you saying he predicted someone would come to save you?"
