Chapter 18: My Will is Sword Intent
Chapter 18: My Will is Sword Intent
The news of the Li family\'s raid spread through Pingshan City like a spring wind. Before morning had even arrived, the entire city was already aware of the incident. The Li family had too many properties all over Pingshan City, and many of them had been seized. One only needed to understand a little to understand what had happened.
It could be said that Su Yang\'s reputation had reached its peak. He was loved by the people of Pingshan City.
If it wasn\'t for the soldiers of Spring Wind Hall blocking the way, the threshold would have been broken by the grateful people.
As for the person who had done such a great thing that had caused the entire Pingshan City to boil and cheer for him… At this moment, he was waving his sword in the courtyard.
"Ninety percent of the white gas in the sky above Pingshan City has been reduced."
After what he did last night was exposed, things developed as he had expected. The white gas in the sky above Pingshan City was reduced, and he obtained six wisps of living beings\' will again.
Now, he had 15 wisps of living beings \'will. Therefore, he could already forge his own sword moves.
He had already studied the process of using the will of all living beings to create sword moves. For example, the sword moves he forged were limited by the level of his sword intent. His level 12 sword intent could only consume 12 wisps of the will of all living beings to forge a level 12 sword move. However, when his sword intent reached level 13, he could also add a wisp of the will of all living beings to raise his sword technique to level 13.
He didn\'t have to worry about wasting the sword moves he created now if he couldn\'t use them in the future. This was a very good thing for him.
The sword moves created by sword intent were extremely malleable. It could be said that Su Yang could create whatever he wanted.
To put it simply, Su Yang\'s sword move would be what he thought. However, the more functions a sword move had, the weaker its power would be. Therefore, if wanted a powerful sword move, he shouldn\'t do anything fancy.
While thinking, Su Yang already had an idea. Could he come up with a sword move that could strengthen his body? After all, sword intent was so malleable.
Su Yang tried to think about it, and soon he got the result.
No way… The Sword Intent was not the issue. It was the insufficient will of sentient beings, and his body was lacking. To achieve that kind of sword technique, he needed more will of sentient beings.
Alright, it seemed that he had failed to find a sword technique that could strengthen his body. Then, he would follow the normal train of thought.
His first sword move would definitely be powerful. If he needed any special functions, he would think about it later.
He came to this world like a shooting star, wanting to use his weak flame to dispel the darkness that enveloped the people of this world. For this first technique... The sword would take the form of starlight, with a fiery glow as its tip.
It was forged with 12 wisps of living beings\' will. He named it - Starfire!
With his eyes closed, Su Yang thought of the appearance and name of his first sword move. In the next moment, the will of all living beings in his mind began to decrease.
The will of all living beings transformed into the sword move that Su Yang wanted. The sword\'s body resembled the dark universe of the sky, with stars flickering within, and the fiery glow at the forefront was the most dazzling.
The sword technique... Starfire, completed!
In a few moments, the sword move was condensed. Su Yang\'s two fingers were like swords, and the sword intent around his body burst out. The sword intent from his Dantian followed the flow.
"Buzz!"
In Spring Wind Hall, a loud and clear sword cry resounded! The sound wave spread like water. Zhang Hu, the guards, and the visiting townsfolk all halted in their tracks, turning their heads toward the direction of the sword hum.
"That\'s where Lord Su Yang is."
"Is that the sound of a sword hum?"
"No doubt... but why is the commotion so intense?"
"Don\'t you know? It\'s none other than Lord Su Yang!"
In the courtyard, Su Yang had long been wrapped in sword intent, and an even stronger sword intent gathered at his fingertips. The sword move had already taken shape and had to be executed. He pointed two fingers at the sky and slashed.
The sword essence that had been compressed to the extreme found a breakthrough at this moment.
"Beginning of the Sword, Starfire!"
A huge sword formed by sword intent soared into the sky from the courtyard. The tip of the sword burned with a fiery glow, while the sword body was pitch black with traces of starlight.
This sword, with unstoppable momentum, sliced through the air, tearing apart the clouds. Thousands of meters of clouds were split in half by this sword. As the clouds parted, a glimpse of the azure sky could be seen through the rift.
The sword intent dispersed, and sunlight shone through. Su Yang slowly exhaled a breath, releasing the suppressed stagnation in his heart. After exhaling, it seemed that his whole being became much lighter.
It felt as if he was bidding farewell to the past, letting go of his previous life.
It felt as if he was embracing the new beginning of this world...
The impact of Su Yang\'s sword was immense. It was so significant that the entire populace of Pingshan City witnessed it.
Logically speaking, those who saw this sword that was so powerful that it could change the weather would not tremble in fear, but they would also be in awe. However, the citizens of Pingshan City did not feel this way. They only felt someone holding a torch high in the darkness, and someone tearing the darkness apart with a sword.
"This sword... it must have been wielded by Su Yang!"
No one saw that this sword was slashed out by Su Yang. However, the citizens of Pingshan City seemed to have seen it.
Zhang Lang, who had left Ping Shan City a long time ago, seemed to have sensed something. He looked at Pingshan City from a small mountain path. With just a glance, he was stunned by what he saw.
"What an excellent sword… Using one\'s body as fire to tear through the darkness, this kind of intent sword technique required a lot of determination to comprehend."
"This is the Hidden Dragon that the commoners need. What a great talent! When we meet in the future, I will treat him with respect."
Zhang Lang stopped in the mountains and bowed his head. He raised his hands in front of his chest and solemnly performed a half-body salute. Then, he turned around and set off again to complete his mission.
...
Su Yang was not disturbed by the outside world. After waving his sword, he once again devoted himself to his daily sword practice.
There was no noise in the inner courtyard, only the sound of sword after sword breaking through the air. He, Su Yang, was doing what a beginner sword practitioner should do.
Many of the guards in the outer court were still immersed in the power of that sword. It was only when they heard the sound of swords being swung in the inner courtyard that they pulled their thoughts back to reality.
...
In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
For three days, Su Yang waved his sword every day and went to Rejuvenation Hall to take a medicinal bath.
With the improvement of his physique, the number of times he could swing his sword every day had increased to 8,000.
[Tianqin Sword]
[Sword Intent: LV4 (2111/14000)]
[Sword Technique: Starfire (Lv. 14)]
[Will of All Life Beings: 1]
His sword intent had already been upgraded to Lv. 14, and his sword moves had also been upgraded. Even he himself could not judge his current strength.
This place was too small. He had never seen any experts before, so he naturally could not compare them.
In three days, the Li family\'s assets had been tabulated.
Zhang Hu and the others were already waiting for him to inspect it.
After confirming that there was no mistake, it was time to divide the money.
It had to be said that according to Zhang Hu, the silver taels exceeded 300,000.
No wonder ancient people were so interested in confiscating the properties of wealthy merchants and corrupt officials. Even if Su Yang was not very interested in money, he was still looking forward to it.
