Chapter 1112 - 1109: A Graceful Lady, a Worthy Gentleman

While Luo Feng was cultivating, Yue Haitang was also making the most of his time to train, even more diligently than Luo Feng.

His goal was to become one of the Top Ten New Dragons.

However, due to the involvement of two disciples from the Sword Tomb, he couldn’t use the Sword Heart Heaven Jade at the New Dragon List Conference, nor could he display the Sword Tomb Swordsmanship. He could only rely on the Martial Arts of Jade Hall to compete for a position, which greatly reduced his capabilities. The difficulty of fighting for a place among the Top Ten New Dragons increased tenfold.

Fortunately, this time, breaking through the encirclement of the Demon Sect disciples, experiencing life-and-death trials, benefited him immensely. Especially after witnessing the Sword Tomb Silver Swordsmen display their sword techniques, many questions that had puzzled him were resolved instantly, feeling a sense of sudden enlightenment. In the past few days, his cultivation had been extremely efficient.

On the third day.

The wilderness was pitch black, with only a faint silver moon hanging high in the night sky.

Hmm?

Luo Feng, who was cultivating, slightly raised his eyebrows and suddenly opened his eyes, staring across the way.

Under the moonlight, Yue Haitang, in a blue robe, sat cross-legged on a green stone, hands clasped in front of him, holding the Sword Heart Heaven Jade in his palms, eyes slightly closed, body motionless, his handsome features illuminated by the moonlight, glowing with an ethereal jade light, like a natural unpolished gemstone.

Hoo...

The night wind blew, making the blue robe on Yue Haitang’s body flutter soundly.

Just at this moment.

Buzz!

Without any warning, a faint ripple appeared in the air, like water waves, and the Sword Heart Heaven Jade emitted the Seven-Colored Mysterious Light, transforming into layers of Seven-Colored Glaze Sword Qi, spiraling around Yue Haitang.

In the blink of an eye, the Glaze Sword Qi formed a giant vortex of Sword Qi, wherever it passed, the ground was instantly ground into powder by the Sword Qi, even some plants a thousand meters away began to wilt, as if their vitality had been stripped away.

Gazing at the vortex of Sword Qi, Luo Feng couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Every strand of Sword Qi in the vortex radiated a strong Sword Intent. The multitude of Sword Qi gathered together, the fierce intent towards him was so overwhelming, his scalp tingled involuntarily, and he had to exert his Grand Momentum to resist.

He didn’t know how much time had passed, but suddenly, the Sword Heart Heaven Jade in Yue Haitang’s hand shuddered slightly.

Swoosh!

Instantly, the massive vortex of Sword Qi took form around her, turning into an immense Glaze Sword Qi, solid and tangible, whose intense sharpness even scattered a large patch of clouds in the sky, allowing the cold moonlight to pour down, illuminating everything.

And in the instant the Glaze Sword Qi formed, vegetation within several thousand meters was completely obliterated, as if an invisible force had snuffed out all vitality, even the earth and rocks transformed into desert instantly, bereft of any life.

"Such terrifying Sword Intent!"

Luo Feng watched Yue Haitang, feeling weighed down by negativity, quickly activating his Grand Momentum to suppress these emotions.

Swoosh!

At that very moment, the Seven-Colored Glaze Sword Qi soared into the sky, spiraling a circuit in the void, rapidly shrinking, then darted into Yue Haitang’s body. Everything within several hundred meters turned to dust in an instant, forming a massive depression that looked like a treasure sword from above.

"Finally reached the late stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm ninefold."

Yue Haitang opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of stale air, and in his bright eyes, a hint of joy gleamed.

Over the past three days, he constantly recalled the sword techniques displayed by Su Zhuyun and Jiang Fengfeng.

These two were indeed disciples of the Sword Tomb, their sword techniques were unparalleled. Yue Haitang realized many things from them, and due to this enlightenment, his cultivation advanced smoothly into the late stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm ninefold!

"Huh... What is this..."

As he glanced around, Yue Haitang saw the desert wasteland around him and the huge visible sword scars below, a look of surprise crossed his face.

"Congratulations on reaching the late stage of the Spiritual Rotation Realm ninefold, Haitang." Luo Feng collected his Grand Momentum and smiled at Yue Haitang.

"I didn’t expect to break through so quickly."

Yue Haitang came back to his senses, stepped lightly to appear at Luo Feng’s side, looked at the transformed landscape, and asked, "Luo Feng, what exactly happened just now?"

Luo Feng examined Yue Haitang, gave a faint smile, "Apart from the change in cultivation, haven’t you felt other transformations within you?"

"Other transformations?"

Yue Haitang paused, carefully checked himself, and discovered that besides his Yuan Qi being more vigorous, there was a concealed power within him, extremely sharp, that seemed ready to explode outward at any moment.

"Could this be..."

With eyes open wide, Yue Haitang looked up at Luo Feng, his bright pupils filled with astonishment.

Luo Feng smiled and said, "Yes, it is the Sword Intent."

"I have comprehended Sword Intent?"

Yue Haitang’s expression showed disbelief.

Luo Feng cast his gaze upon the desolate sand, "The vitality within several thousand miles has been cut down by you, to be able to kill the intangible, only Sword Intent can achieve this. Your comprehension of Sword Intent is probably greatly related to the Sword Heart Heaven Jade."

As he finished speaking, Luo Feng explained the previously observed phenomenon of the Sword Heart Heaven Jade to Yue Haitang.

"No wonder my mother wanted me to keep the Sword Heart Heaven Jade and instructed me to comprehend the Sword Dao before going to the Sword Tomb."

Yue Haitang’s expression gradually calmed, looking at the Sword Heart Heaven Jade in his hand, "As far as I know, every disciple of the Sword Tomb has comprehended Sword Intent."

"The Sword Tomb disciples have all comprehended Sword Intent!"

Luo Feng was deeply moved; despite the countless swordsmen in the Canglang Dynasty, those who understood Sword Intent were few.

The disciples of the Sword Tomb have all achieved the Sword Intent, what an astounding force, no wonder it can rival the nine great holy grounds.

"These are what I overheard from my father. I don’t know the details."

Yue Haitang shook his head, then looked at Luo Feng, lightly pursing his lips, hesitating for a moment before saying, "Luo Feng, could you... help me train in Sword Intent?"

Having just grasped Sword Intent, it remained in its infancy, needing immense pressure to hone it, allowing Sword Intent to develop its sharpness, and only then could it be considered fully realized.

Luo Feng had mastered Grand Momentum, and his Momentum Realm was not low, making him the perfect candidate for training.

However, with the New Dragon List Conference approaching and every moment precious for the Golden Palace disciples, not to mention Luo Feng’s pursuit of a position among the Top Ten New Dragons.

"I thought it was something more difficult. If it’s only this minor task, you could have spoken directly. You’re behaving just like a woman; even your cousin Yue Hongzhuang is more straightforward."

Seeing Yue Haitang’s bashful demeanor, Luo Feng couldn’t resist a teasing remark.

Yue Haitang had faced life-threatening danger, ventured into the Red Flame Desert to help him escape the Demon Sect’s siege; naturally, he couldn’t decline helping her train Sword Intent.

Hearing Luo Feng mention Yue Hongzhuang again, Yue Haitang revealed a slight dissatisfaction on his face, pursing his lips and grumbling, "Yue Hongzhuang... Yue Hongzhuang... you only ever think about my cousin! Do you like her that much?"

Luo Feng chuckled lightly, casually replied, "A fair lady, a gentleman seeks her. Besides, your cousin is an exceptional beauty, unrivaled within a thousand miles. If she weren’t already engaged, I..."

"Then... if she weren’t engaged, what would you do?"

Yue Haitang’s expression was somewhat flushed, watching Luo Feng, his gaze apprehensive yet eager.

"Ahem..."

Luo Feng realized his slip of the tongue, coughed a bit, and said, "Let’s go, your cultivation just now made quite a commotion, likely drawing attention from others. Let’s change places and continue training."

"..."

Watching Luo Feng’s retreating figure, Yue Haitang stood for a long time, a faint smile slowly curving his lips, and then he performed Qinggong to catch up.
