Chapter 504 - 505 "Heart Space Reflecting God

Chapter 504: Chapter 505 “Heart Space Reflecting God

“Though you have learned many sword techniques, your sword intent is weak, you’re not truly a sword cultivator, just a follower of some crooked ways.”

“A sword cultivator dedicates their heart to the sword, practices swordsmanship throughout their life, overcoming all obstacles, breaking through all barriers, with a sword in hand, the world is theirs.”

“At most, what you do can only be considered sword cultivation; I don’t even know how you managed to comprehend the spirit domain.”

“To break the enemy, a sword cultivator relies on four core methods: swordsmanship, sword qi, sword heart, and sword intent. Train your sword intent well in this sword array and perceive your own sword heart.”

The voice of the Void King seemed to be everywhere, slowly drilling into Zhong Lin’s ears, and at this moment, Zhong Lin was also irritated and confused by him.

Lies do not harm people; the truth is a sharp knife.

The Void King was not wrong; Zhong Lin gained his sword dao through cheating. Although the system panel could be seen as his innate talent, in the end, he was still not a pure sword cultivator.

Swordsmanship, sword qi, sword intent, sword heart.

On the first three, Zhong Lin believed he was not inferior to others through the system panel, but only sword heart…

Zhong Lin self-identified as not a true sword cultivator; the sword was merely a tool to him, as could be seen from how he forged his lifebound weapon into the Donghuang Bell.

In fact, even if the Void King didn’t say anything, Zhong Lin had already perceived his bottleneck, as if there were some invisible barrier locking his path to further advancement in sword dao. It seemed now that he hadn’t comprehended his own “sword heart.”

As Zhong Lin was thinking, the myriad sword artifacts surrounding him and keeping him constantly on the run suddenly vanished, and a surge of sword qi silently and swiftly came toward him, aiming to decapitate him.

“Sunset!”

Out of instinct, Zhong Lin executed the first heavenly extreme sword technique he obtained, the “Sunset Sword Technique,” with the Green Frost Sword in hand, lifting upwards, while sword intent burst forth, shattering the sword qi directly.

The shattered sword qi caused a flash of insight to pour into Zhong Lin’s mind, and he stood there motionless, completely absorbed.

Swish!

The sword array dispersed, and the Void King looked at Zhong Lin with surprise and delight, “Good lad, Xi Xuan always boasted that this young disciple of his had amazing comprehension. I thought he was exaggerating, but it turns out he was understating it. I only needed to perform one sword move for him to comprehend it. Wonderful! Wonderful!”

At this moment, Zhong Lin was fully immersed in an inexplicable realization, feeling as if his heart were a spiritual lake, all of heaven and earth was reflected in his heart, and any ripple could cause waves.

The many sword techniques he had learned became crystal clear at this moment.

“System!”

The system panel, which was always a long string of data, had become several times simpler.

In the “Art” section, all the sword techniques vanished, finally condensed into two brief words.

Sword Domain!

Sword Dao Domain.

There were no traditional realm divisions after the sword domain, but within his mind’s reflection, he could see the many sword techniques he had practiced contained within.

Understanding it all in his heart, he realized that the so-called sword domain was somewhat similar to alchemy; it could be enhanced through cultivating various sword techniques, but skill points could not conjure it from nothing to directly elevate the “sword domain.”

Zhong Lin could feel that his comprehension of sword dao had broken through once again.

Sword Heart Communication.

With each breath, there was sword qi, and with every thought, there was sword intent.

Heaven and earth are my sword! The firmament is my sword! The universe is my sword!

“Sword heart… is this the sword heart?”

Zhong Lin muttered, feeling his cultivation had not improved, but his comprehension of sword dao had soared to great heights.

He then shifted his gaze to the skill that ultimately transformed his sword intent, “Heart Space Reflecting God.”

The last sword move from the Void King seemed filled with lethal intent toward him, but its purpose was to help him comprehend this martial art.

By constructing an empty space of the mind, it reflects the spirit god within.

Zhong Lin used this spiritual lake to reflect his own spirit god, integrating all the sword techniques he had learned to comprehend his own sword heart and sword domain.

He slowly opened his eyes, his gaze calm without any of the previous restlessness and sharpness.

Putting away the Green Frost Sword in his hand, he deeply bowed to the Void King, saying, “Disciple thanks the elder for your guidance.”

Clap, clap!

The Void King also clapped with a smile, satisfied, and said, “Good, good, good. It wasn’t in vain that Xi Xuan personally came to ask me to pass on the ’Heart Space Reflecting God’ to you. You certainly didn’t let him down.”

Zhong Lin felt even more touched, deeply admiring his master.

“Heart Space Reflecting God” is one of the Eight Great Martial Arts of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land. Even as a Saint Heir, one can only choose one, and now his master personally sought it for him. This kindness is truly hard to repay.

“Don’t act like a timid child. Now that you’ve passed the test, as long as your name is left on the Golden Tablet, you can become the sixth saint of the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land.”

Leave your name on the Golden Tablet!

Only those whose names are inscribed are considered saints.

“Elder, I’ve only passed the third stage, how can I…”

Before Zhong Lin finished speaking, the Void King shifted slightly and a sacrificial altar rose slowly behind him.

“The Nine-story Sword Tower is merely a formality. You possess the King’s Weapon Donghuang Bell and the Heavenly Destiny Imperial Artifact Divine Gate. How could any test block you? And I am the gatekeeper of the final stage. Since you’ve passed, go ahead!”

The Void King said with a beaming smile.

Thus, Zhong Lin did not hesitate, stepping onto the altar, and immediately the altar emitted a radiant glow.

The light flashed, and Zhong Lin found himself in an extraordinary state, hearing someone ask, “What is your name?”

Unable to think, Zhong Lin instinctively responded.

“Zhong Lin!”

“Where are you from?”

“Lower River Village, Black Mountain County, Tianyang City, Chen Country, Xuan Gui Continent, Eastern Desolate.”

“Are you a spy from another sacred land, joining the Heavenly Sword Sacred Land with ulterior motives?”

“No.”

“Are you an informant from the Demon Path?”

“No.”

“What is your purpose for cultivating?”

…

There were a total of ninety-nine questions, and whatever Zhong Lin had on his mind, he spoke without any deception and was unable to lie.

Moreover, he sensed an inexplicable force sustaining the area, and any spies with impure intentions would be detected here.

When the questions were done, that strange force also disappeared, marking Zhong Lin’s passage of the test, followed by another glow rising to inspect him.

The light entered his body, seemingly probing inch by inch, thoroughly examining everything.

This lasted for a good half an hour before everything was completely finished.

The Void King, looking at Zhong Lin with even more satisfaction, said, “Don’t think this is making a fuss over nothing. Remember the ’Taiwei Spiritual Mind Heavenly Earth Cave Heavenly Scripture’ that your master exchanged for you? The Taiwei True Person’s lineage was extinguished because a demon-path person assumed the position of Supreme Leader prior to his ascension. From then on, all sacred lands established the Heart Inquiry Platform to prevent such occurrences from happening again. Alright, come down now!”
