Chapter 1403: Flames Burn a Thousand Peaks
Fire Engulfs the Thousand Tents Palace
Sword Intent is one with human intent.
The kind of person one is determines the sword they can wield; a timid and cowardly individual could never truly master the Sword Intent of the Sky-splitting Sword.
Nor could a person with a heart sullied beyond redemption use a sword like Dragon Slayer, which is meant to exorcise demons and vanquish evil spirits.
And this wave of Sword Qi coming head-on towards Su Chengyu is upright and fierce; even in a sudden, covert attack, its momentum was insufficiently concealed, indicating an inherent righteousness that seems to be etched into the very bones.
Even though Su Chengyu had detected the Sword Qi, he still found it rather challenging to defend against, as the sword strike was incredibly fast.
Once the sword techniques of Xia Nation reach a certain level of proficiency, the sheer pursuit of speed becomes increasingly rare.
Instead, the focus shifts towards the profound and mysterious, even striving towards the Daoist concept of Unity of Heaven and Man, embracing nature as is.
Emphasizing intent over technique, this has become the general trend in Xia Nation Martial Arts today.
The Sword Momentum of this individual is wide-open yet precise, unleashing power far more formidable than it seems, and their expression of speed and strength is among the top few that Su Chengyu has ever encountered.
"Excellent swordsmanship."
