Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 223: Ignorant Heart Sword Art Advancement, Master Level Late Stage

"No!!!"

Seeing the exquisite and unparalleled pure white sword light flying out from Zhong Cang's Ancient Gold Gourd at his waist, and in the instant it flew out, swelling against the wind, it filled his field of vision like the Milky Way in the blink of an eye.

Faced with all of this, Lu Wuji was dumbfounded.

He couldn't understand why Zhong Cang only played a sword sound, and this sword that could cleave mountains and seas reappeared.

Unfortunately, he didn't have time to think about it.

This sword was already approaching.

And it must be said that Lu Wuji's strength was indeed extremely strong to be able to seize the opportunity to fight against Zhong Cang among the outstanding talents.

Even though caught off guard and momentarily intimidated by the domineering mind power.

At the last moment, he still reacted.

With a "sizzle," his whole person turned into an electric light and suddenly retreated.

While retreating, the electric light around him continued to flicker, and endless thunder light continuously radiated from within him.

Within the thunder light, his figure also continued to grow and enlarge.

"Boom boom boom!"

One meter eight, two meters, two meters nine, three meters, three meters seven... six meters six. By this time, Lu Wuji had already transformed into a thunder giant, and his body transformation was not yet complete.

Unfortunately, there was no more time, and the sword light was as swift as lightning.

Although Lu Wuji also controlled the power of thunder, his speed was ultimately no match for the pure Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi.

Therefore, after two breaths, he was caught up.

"Heavenly Thunder · Shock!"

Realizing that there was no way to avoid it, at the last moment, Lu Wuji stopped dodging.

A mysterious rune appeared on his fist, and with the rune in hand, Lu Wuji's thunderous punch struck towards the pure white sword energy.

"Boom!"

As he punched, a violent rumbling sound came from the heavens and the earth, and the air was faintly trembling.

This strike had an extremely powerful secret technique.

However, he was strong, but the Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi was stronger.

With triple Sword Intent stacking, the rotation of the Five Elements, thirty-two times the power of the gold attribute, and the nurturing of the Supreme Grade Law Weapon Ancient Gold Gourd.

The combination of these three made Zhong Cang's sword vaguely surpass his current realm.

Therefore, the result was not unexpected.

As Lu Wuji's fist and the sword light made contact, with a "chi la" sound, his domineering punch and the thunder light surrounding his fist were all annihilated by the sword energy.

Then, the sword light continued to fly forward as if unaffected, intending to cleave Lu Wuji's shoulder and half of his body.

However, in the end, this strike did not succeed.

It wasn't that Lu Wuji suddenly exploded, but when the sword light reached his body, a dazzling divine light suddenly burst forth from him.

The divine light formed a shield that tightly protected Lu Wuji's body.

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle..."

The divine light shield was strong, but the Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi was not weak either. The collision of the two caused a brilliant white light to burst forth in the air, accompanied by the sound of a blade cutting through steel, echoing in the air.

In the end, it was the power of the Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi that was exhausted first.

From this, it can be seen that this divine light shield does not belong to the level of Foundation Building.

However, the difference is that the Extreme White Ancient Gold Sword Qi was unleashed with Zhong Cang's full strength.

On the other hand, the divine light shield was bestowed upon Lu Wuji by the sect as a protective treasure.

This kind of treasure can only be used to save one's life in battle and does not count as Lu Wuji's own strength.

Therefore, forcing out the shield meant that Lu Wuji lost this battle. Like everyone else, he was defeated by a single sword.

The blow that Zhong Cang dealt to the young cultivators of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain was extremely heavy.

If there had never been any hope, then losing would just be losing.

But to give people hope and then crush it forcefully, this feeling was truly unbearable.

Many people felt lost and disoriented because of Zhong Cang's sword.

"A single sword, can't anyone in our entire Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain withstand it?"

"Monster!"

"Ah, why is such a genius from the North Abyss Region? It would be so much better if he were from our Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain."

"I shouldn't have believed the rumors in the streets. They said Lu Wuji had found the weakness of that monster and could win... Is this how he won?"

"I don't believe it anymore. Now, I don't expect Zhong Cang to lose, but no matter what, he has to use a second sword. Otherwise, our Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain will lose face!"

...

One blow after another, ordinary cultivators no longer had the confidence to defeat Zhong Cang.

At this moment, when they thought of Zhong Cang, their first feeling was fear.

That stunning and unparalleled sword was deeply imprinted in their souls.

Just thinking of Zhong Cang would make them recall the fear dominated by that sword.

And all this fear turned into fuel, causing the progress of the Ignorant Heart Sword Art to skyrocket.

This was manifested in reality. After defeating Lu Wuji, when Zhong Cang returned to the city, the onlookers of cultivators would subconsciously step back and respectfully make way for him.

Meanwhile, before this battle, the progress of Zhong Cang's Ignorant Heart Sword Art had reached around 500,000 at the master level, not far from 540,000.

And 540,000 is two-thirds of 810,000, which is the dividing point between the mid-stage and late stage of the master level of Ignorant Heart Sword Art.

After a battle, Zhong Cang's proficiency increased again, reaching 540,000, officially advancing to the late stage of the master level.

At the moment of advancement, with a "buzz!" sound, a majestic and domineering aura burst forth from Zhong Cang's soul.

Aura is invisible, but as Zhong Cang's Ignorant Heart Sword Art advances to the late stage of the master level, that majestic aura actually manifests in the mortal world.

A towering sword shadow appeared in the sky above Tianhai Immortal City.

"Boom!"

The towering sword shadow and the majestic aura caused the sky to darken, and the entire Tianhai Immortal City was shrouded in a sudden dark cloud.

Under the dark cloud, as long as the people of Tianhai Immortal City looked up, they could see the giant sword, and in that instant, everyone would feel a pressure as if they were trapped in an endless deep sea.

Under that deep pressure, even Foundation Building cultivators felt a bit breathless and suffocated.

As for Qi Refining cultivators, they directly fainted.

One person suppressing a city, even without involving the Gold Core stage, Zhong Cang's invincible path is still beginning to show its brilliance.

...

"This is... momentum! His comprehension of Sword Intent has reached the level of momentum. Everyone, we can't tolerate this. If he really completes the path of invincibility and completes the cultivation of Sword Intent, we're finished."

"You don't want to spend the rest of your life bowing under his sword, do you?"

These words from Zimo made the talented individuals sitting in the Four Seas Pavilion look grim.

Naturally, they didn't want to end up in this situation.

However, Zhong Cang's overwhelming strength made it impossible for them to resist, even if they didn't want to endure it!

But they also understood the urgency and seriousness of the situation.

The so-called momentum is part of the cultivation of Sword Intent.

When a cultivator advances to the master level of a technique, they will comprehend intent, Sword Intent, the intent of flowing wind, the intent of burning fire, the true intent of the sun, the true intent of thunder... all things in the world have intent, and humans can comprehend them all.

But at this stage, cultivators have only just begun to comprehend intent.

According to the division of proficiency in the technique, it is the first stage of initial entry, just the beginning.

If mastering a complete understanding of one aspect of intent is compared to one, then initial entry is only one to three percent of that.

At this stage, although cultivators can use "intent" to enhance their spells and greatly increase their power, they can only achieve this level of understanding.

And after comprehending intent, it is not the end of everything, but the beginning of cultivation.

Afterwards, cultivators must constantly study and explore the intent they have comprehended, improving their perception and control of it.

If the comprehension of intent can reach forty to sixty percent, intent will transform into momentum.

This kind of 'power' can manifest itself substantially in reality, influencing others, and even affecting the heavens and the earth.

The invincible power of Zhong Cang is a state of mind and artistic conception, but it is not yet clearly manifested.

If it is the artistic conception of elements, like a flowing wind, once Zhong Cang's 'power' is revealed, the flowing wind of the heavens and the earth will automatically converge towards Zhong Cang... This convergence is spontaneous and does not require Zhong Cang to exert any effort.

The benefits of power are not limited to this. If an enemy does not grasp the artistic conception, when using wind-based spells to attack, their spells may even directly collapse and merge into the 'power of the wind'.

When the time comes, the heavens and the earth will assist, which is the best description of power.

Hmm... in terms of intent, it is impossible to control the enemy's spells, even if they are of the same attribute.

Zhong Cang was able to do it before because he comprehended the intent of the Heavenly Heart. This special artistic conception allows Zhong Cang to simulate the heavenly path, which is how he was able to reach this level.

First comes intent, then comes power, and after power comes domain. To comprehend an artistic conception to seventy to ninety-nine percent is within the scope of a domain.

Similar to power, a domain can also attract spiritual energy of the same attribute. The difference is that power is only an illusory pressure.

A domain, on the other hand, can achieve exclusion. If a cultivator unfolds their domain, they can exclude all other attributes of spiritual energy, allowing only one attribute of spiritual energy within their domain.

As everyone knows, spiritual energy is the foundation of cultivators. Without external spiritual energy assistance, a cultivator's strength will greatly diminish. Moreover, the higher the cultivation level, the more power is consumed.

After all, the cultivator's own spiritual energy is actually not much. The magnificent spells that High-Level cultivators cast, which can span tens of miles, are all activated by the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

Without the assistance of spiritual energy between heaven and earth, the strength of these people will naturally be greatly reduced, and in an exaggerated sense, it may even be reduced by eighty percent.

Intent, power, domain, these are the three realms before fully mastering an artistic conception.

Of course, when entering these three realms, besides the common benefits mentioned by Zhong Cang above, because of the different true intents and directions of comprehension, each person will also have other benefits.

Zhong Cang, because he walks the path of invincibility, has advanced the Ignorant Heart Sword Art, and his sword power is straightforward.

When he goes all out, Zhong Cang can condense sword shadows that penetrate the heavens and the earth, overwhelming others, making them feel timid before the battle even begins.

Because Zhong Cang walks the path of invincibility in the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain, his suppression power against the geniuses of this place is even stronger.

Others may only feel three parts timid.

If the geniuses of the Cloud Dream Heavenly Domain do not stop Zhong Cang and let him complete the path of invincibility, then in the future, when facing Zhong Cang, they will feel five parts timid.

Such an influence is extremely detrimental.

It should be known that when experts compete, their mental state plays a crucial role.

Feeling five parts timid before the battle even begins is no different from surrendering in a duel at the same level.

That's why Zimo became anxious.

Others were also anxious.

However, it's still the same old saying... even if they are anxious, they still can't defeat Zhong Cang.
