Immortality Starts With Diligence(Xianxia Litrpg)

112. Hidden Saber Shattered

Lin Fei withdrew the Saber Qi. The Saber Qi inside his body gradually became quiet. He even couldn't feel the True Intention Scroll refining the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth within his body. It seemed as if it had suddenly stopped. At this moment, a system message echoed in Lin Fei's mind.

"Your True Intention Scroll was just about to slack off when it was severely beaten by your Saber Intent."

"Your True Intention Scroll is filled with grievances, but under the coercion of your Saber Intent, it has no choice but to continue cultivating with doubled efforts."

As the system message faded away, Lin Fei distinctly felt that the Saber Qi in his body started moving again. And it was refining the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth like crazy.

However, the formation in the room hadn't been activated, the Spiritual Qi was scarce. But time was on his side.

Given the level of effort by the Saber Intent would constantly push the True Intention Scroll to practice diligently every single moment of the twenty-four hours each day.

In no time, Lin Fei would likely advance from the early Master stage to the middle Grandmaster stage!

"Indeed, helping Saber Intent to suppress the True Intention Scroll was the right decision. Otherwise, with True Intention Scroll's domineering, self-righteous, and even lazy nature, its cultivation speed would definitely be much slower than it is now…"

Lin Fei was very satisfied with the Saber Intent. As for the True Intention Scroll, it must be suppressed and driven by the Saber Intent.

"Now that the innate cultivation method problem is solved. It's time to solve the issue of combat martial arts."

The first thing that came to Lin Fei's mind was the Saber-drawing Technique. After all, the Saber-drawing Technique was Lin Fei's strongest martial art in the acquired realm.

"Your Saber-drawing Technique, due to the absence of inner power, is in low spirits and cannot nurture the saber."

Just as Lin Fei thought about the Saber-drawing Technique, the system's voice echoed in his mind. Apparently, the system wouldn't remind Lin Fei of every message. It would only prompt messages when Lin Fei needed them.

"Unable to nurture the saber…"

Lin Fei's brow furrowed slightly. He had thought about this possibility. After all, the Saber-drawing Technique was specifically designed for inner power. Without inner power, how could one nurture the saber?

"Let's try using Saber Qi to nurture the saber…"

Lin Fei had just started to circulate the Saber Qi. He prepared to follow the meridian circulation of the Saber-drawing Technique to nurture the saber.

However, as Lin Fei's Saber Qi started to circulate, as soon as it touched the hidden saber,

"Crack."

the next moment, the Hidden Saber shattered instantly.

"Shattered?"

Lin Fei looked at the broken Hidden Saber on the ground. It should be known that this Hidden Saber was a treasured weapon specifically crafted for the Saber-drawing Technique.

The material was of very high quality. But now, it was shattered by Lin Fei's Saber Qi in an instant. This demonstrated the incredible strength of Lin Fei's Saber Qi.

"Sure enough, the Saber-drawing Technique is no longer usable. The Saber-drawing Technique requires inner power to nurture the saber. Even drawing the saber requires inner power to circulate through specific meridians, unleashing unparalleled power. But my Saber Qi is completely different from inner power, even poles apart. Naturally, I can't nurture the saber, let alone use the Saber-drawing Technique."

Lin Fei had guessed this outcome. If the Saber-drawing Technique could be executed with Saber Qi, then the Saber-drawing Technique wouldn't be an acquired martial art. It should be an innate martial art.

Lin Fei just felt a bit regretful. The Saber-drawing Technique helped Lin Fei comprehend Saber Intent. Moreover, it had defeated numerous strong opponents in the acquired realm. Now suddenly it had lost its usefulness. Even the Hidden Saber was shattered.

Lin Fei tried but failed to elevate the Saber-drawing Technique to the innate level.

Every innate martial art was the crystallization of wisdom, far surpassing the acquired level. Elevating an acquired level martial art to the innate level was even more difficult than creating a new innate martial art.

"Let's try the Nine Shadow Saber Technique."

A thought crossed Lin Fei's mind and he thought of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique. So, Lin Fei directly drew the Star Saber.

"Swish."

Lin Fei slashed with the saber. Immediately, the saber light surged. At the same time, nineteen saber shadows instantly merged into one. One saber, nineteen shadows!

"The Nine Shadow Saber Technique is still usable. After all, the essence of the Nine Shadow Saber Technique is actually a martial art at the Body Refining level. It's merely a saber technique and has nothing to do with the use of inner power or Saber Qi. However, using the Star Saber to execute the Nine Shadow Saber Technique doesn't bring out its full power. I can just use Saber Qi directly."

Lin Fei could now condense saber energy a dozen meters long. It was more than enough to perform the Nine Shadow Saber Technique. The only weakness might be the difficulty in sustaining Saber Qi. After all, Lin Fei was currently only in the early stage of the Master realm. His Saber Qi was far from being considered abundant.

However, if he reached the middle or even late stages of the Master realm, his Saber Qi would be extremely abundant, enough to replace a treasured saber with saber energy. Even now, as long as Lin Fei could finish the battle quickly, there should be no problem using saber energy to replace a treasured saber.

Next, Lin Fei tried his hand at fist techniques. The Quadruple Wave Technique could no longer be executed. Or rather, even if it could be executed, it wouldn't have much power. It's impossible to multiply the power by ten or more times.

Dragon-Elephant Vajra Fist could still be executed and its power was not bad. In other words, Lin Fei could now only use martial arts at the Body Refining level. All inner power martial arts could no longer be executed. Or even if executed, they would not have much effect. The same was true for lightness techniques.

Of course, this didn't mean that Lin Fei's fist techniques and saber techniques had weakened. That was not the case. Lin Fei now had Saber Intent and Fist Intent.

As long as he used fist or saber techniques, with the blessing of Fist Intent and Saber Intent and the explosive power of Saber Qi, the power would be many times stronger than in the acquired realm.

Now, Lin Fei could casually slash with his Saber Qi and he wouldn't even need to use the Nine Shadow Saber Technique. A casual slash with Saber Qi would be stronger than Lin Fei's Saber-drawing Technique after months, or even a year of nurturing the saber!

Innate represented a qualitative transformation! Moreover, Lin Fei cultivated the True Intention Scroll, transforming Innate True Qi into Saber Qi. It was almost like a second metamorphosis!

Lin Fei tried out his fist techniques, saber techniques, and lightness techniques. None of them were satisfactory and none of them were innate martial arts, nor could they utilize Saber Qi to maximize its power.

"It seems that I have to return to the Nine Profound Sect and select a few more combat martial arts," Lin Fei decided in his heart.

Combat martial arts were indeed necessary. High realm and powerful combat martial arts combined make up the true strength of a martial artist! Both aspects were indispensable.

However, to return to the Nine Profound Sect, Lin Fei would inevitably have to leave Chang City. The threat of He Mountain Dao still loomed. Given He Mountain Dao's influence, there were bound to be spies in Chang City. Once Lin Fei leaves Chang City, He Mountain Dao's high-ranking Qi Condensation cultivators would most likely take action.

"Now that I have gotten innate realm, I am dozens of times stronger than before! Moreover, Saber Qi is more threatening to Qi Condensation cultivators than Innate True Qi. Even high-ranking Qi Condensation cultivators might not be able to withstand my Saber Qi.

If He Mountain Dao's high-ranking Qi Condensation cultivators dare to ambush me on the way, I'll let them have a taste of my Saber Qi!"

A hint of killing intent flashed in Lin Fei's eyes. He Mountain Dao had provoked him time and time again, Lin Fei would naturally not be polite. Especially now that Lin Fei had advanced to the innate realm. He already possessed strength that was not inferior to any high-ranking Qi Condensation cultivator.

In fact, Lin Fei could even rival top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators. He was even less afraid of He Mountain Dao. If He Mountain Dao really dared to attack him, Lin Fei wouldn't mind using Saber Qi to slay He Mountain Dao's high-ranking Qi Condensation cultivators.

He could even learn from the Nine Profound Sect's founder that find some random excuses to obliterate the He Mountain Dao's sect!
