Immortality Starts With Ignorant Heart Sword Art

Chapter 38: Sword Heart Possession - Zhong Yingying

Gentle and sensible, these are wonderful qualities. However, these qualities have also dulled Zhong Yingying's sharpness and made her realize her limits. She is no longer like a little girl with fantasies.

She doesn't believe that Zhong Cang's special training can greatly improve her.

With no expectations, she knocked on the door of Zhong Cang's courtyard.

"Knock, knock..."

"Come in."

Entering the courtyard, Zhong Yingying saw Zhong Cang sitting cross-legged on a piece of bluestone.

Seeing him, Zhong Yingying immediately drew out her low-grade middle-grade sword and nervously asked, "Brother Cang, are you going to spar with me? Let me make it clear, my talent is very poor, so your guidance may be in vain."

Before the battle, she already believed that she couldn't succeed, showing her lack of confidence deeply ingrained in her bones.

Upon hearing this, Zhong Cang slightly frowned. Such a character is not suitable for a fierce sword cultivator.

Fortunately, Zhong Cang believed that a person's temperament is not predetermined but can be changed.

If she can achieve continuous victories, even timidity can turn into confidence.

While thinking, Zhong Cang said, "Let's not fight for now. Close your eyes, relax your body and mind, and don't resist me."

"???"

Although she didn't understand the meaning behind Zhong Cang's request, his astonishing performance during the day had already convinced Zhong Yingying.

Therefore, as soon as Zhong Cang spoke, she closed her eyes and relaxed her body and mind.

As her expression became more relaxed, Zhong Cang moved his mind and made the Maple Flower fly to his face.

With his fingers, Zhong Cang focused his attention on Zhong Yingying and lightly tapped the Maple Flower.

"Clang!"

With the tap, a crisp sword chant resounded in the courtyard.

This time, when Zhong Cang displayed the Twelve Melodies of Jade Heaven Tower, he didn't let the sword chant transmit to his own heart but instead transmitted it to Zhong Yingying's consciousness.

"Hmm..."

The sword chant, carrying the lingering Sword Heart resonance of Zhong Cang, impacted Zhong Yingying's mind.

What made Zhong Cang frowned was that even though he had mentioned to his cousin to relax and not resist him, a mental barrier still appeared between them, resisting Zhong Cang's consciousness transmission during the sword chant.

Fortunately, this barrier wasn't too strong.

And the transmission of sound had its advantages... As long as others didn't block their ears, they would listen to the sound and be influenced by Zhong Cang's sword chant.

In the end, the mental barrier filtered out 40% of Zhong Cang's Sword Heart, leaving 60% manifested in Zhong Yingying's consciousness.

"Hmm!"

This melodious Sword Heart, after rushing into Zhong Yingying's mind, immediately condensed into a long sword.

If it had an aggressive Sword Intent, Zhong Cang could drive the illusory sword and slay the enemy's soul.

Of course, the Sword Heart wasn't aggressive, and Zhong Yingying was his own sister, so he naturally wouldn't attack.

Under his manipulation, the illusory sword and Zhong Yingying's consciousness underwent an Integrated Union.

At the same time, outside, Zhong Cang's voice also sounded.

"Don't resist, integrate with the Sword Heart!"

Although Zhong Cang was trying his best to remind her, the instinct of her consciousness still made Zhong Yingying resist the intrusion of external things.

In the end, 30% of the Sword Heart was consumed after resisting, leaving only 30% of the Sword Heart integrated with Zhong Yingying.

"Such low efficiency."

Layer after layer of obstacles resulted in only 30% of the Sword Heart remaining effective out of the original 100%, causing Zhong Cang to shake his head and sigh.

However, he was dissatisfied, but Zhong Yingying did not think so.

The possession of Sword Heart was like a gateway to a new world opening in front of her.

"Buzz!"

With the activation of Integrated Union, the first effect of Sword Heart took immediate effect.

This first effect was tranquility.

Before being possessed by Sword Heart, Zhong Yingying's heart was filled with various mixed emotions - fear, weakness, lack of confidence, and even self-disgust.

She knew that when Zhong Cang called for her, she hurriedly came, which meant she was trying to please Zhong Cang.

After all, her father treated Zhong Cang like his own child, but her mother had a deep estrangement from Zhong Cang. As for herself, she only felt guilty towards Zhong Cang and had never taken the initiative to get closer to him.

If Zhong Cang were to succeed, he would likely sever ties with her. She didn't want to lose a strong ally and support, so she came early.

Such behavior was somewhat opportunistic, and she was aware of her self-disgust.

...If Zhong Cang knew her thoughts, he would tell her that she was overthinking.

Zhong Cang himself couldn't achieve a saintly heart, so naturally he wouldn't demand it from others.

Overall, he was quite satisfied with this younger sister of his.

Even though she had been bullied several times, she still helped him. Although there were reasons instructed by Zhong Kang, they were father and daughter, and Zhong Cang believed that his uncle knew and would be satisfied.

In addition, Zhong Yingying was also very capable and could help him with some trivial matters.

...

Zhong Cang had his own thoughts about helping Zhong Yingying, and at this moment, his younger sister experienced the power of Sword Heart firsthand.

With the activation of the first effect of Sword Heart, tranquility, all her negative emotions were swept away, leaving only a focus on the sword in her heart.

Soon, she felt the second layer effect of Sword Heart, the sharpness and comprehension of swordsmanship.

After confirming that Zhong Yingying had been possessed by Sword Heart, Zhong Cang focused his mind and took some time to enter the state of being possessed by Sword Heart.

Then, with a swing of his long sword, he attacked Zhong Yingying.

—Having experienced Sword Heart countless times, Zhong Cang naturally understood that the more critical the situation, the better the effect of Sword Heart.

And indeed, when Zhong Cang launched his attack, feeling the danger, Zhong Yingying's instinct made her draw her long sword and fight against Zhong Cang.

"Clang!"

Zhong Yingying was using the Firefly Sword.

It was a set of agile and mainly thrusting swordsmanship. When practiced to a high level, the swordsmanship seemed like countless fireflies surrounding the body, and its power... could only be said to be decent.

Zhong Yingying had worked hard to practice this set of swordsmanship and had always thought she was doing well.

Although she often failed when using this swordsmanship against enemies.

But she always believed that it wasn't her fault, but rather that the level of the swordsmanship was too low compared to the spells of the family's descendants.

However, at this moment, with the possession of Sword Heart, Zhong Yingying realized that it wasn't the weakness of the Firefly Sword, but rather that she had not truly grasped the essence of the Firefly Sword.

"I was wrong, completely wrong."

"The Firefly Sword emphasizes speed and is weak in direct confrontation with others..."

"No, not just speed, the fireflies flickering involve changes in light and shadow and reality..."

The sharpness of Sword Heart in understanding swordsmanship allowed Zhong Yingying to find countless mistakes and omissions she had made before.

And the enhancement of Sword Heart in comprehending swordsmanship allowed flashes of insight to constantly emerge in Zhong Yingying's mind, and these mistakes and omissions were continuously compensated for by her.

At the same time, Zhong Cang's fierce attacks allowed Zhong Yingying to apply the corrected swordsmanship in actual combat.

And as the battle unfolded, more mistakes and omissions were discovered by Zhong Yingying and then compensated for...

"Clang!" "Clang!" "Clang!"

In this way, Zhong Cang and Zhong Yingying fought non-stop, and Zhong Yingying's comprehension of the Firefly Sword soared rapidly.
