Chapter 845: Advanced stage level 2 sword concept
Max then took out the Sword Energy Snow Lotus from his storage ring. Since he was already in a secluded cave, safely hidden and shielded by Eternal Bulwark, he figured he might as well continue pushing his strength even further. There was no point in wasting such a rare opportunity for uninterrupted cultivation.
He looked at the lotus in his hand—a stunning white-blue flower that shimmered with a faint sword glow. The petals were translucent like ice crystals, yet sharp like blades, radiating a cold sword intent that made even the surrounding air feel like it could slice skin.
Without any hesitation, Max brought the Sword Energy Snow Lotus to his lips and swallowed it down.
The effect was immediate and brutal.
A bone-chilling wave of energy exploded inside him, coursing through his meridians like a glacier crashing through a valley. His whole body froze from the inside. Max clenched his jaw as he felt his internal organs stiffen, his blood slow, and even his thoughts began to lag as if his very mind had been sealed in frost.
But within that deadly cold, a pure and wild sword concept surged like a raging blizzard, crashing against the walls of his consciousness with every pulse of his heart. His body had become a beacon of sword energy and frost—one that cut into him with every breath.
’This cold is the worst...’ Max gritted his teeth. His limbs felt like blocks of ice, his chest burned with each attempt to circulate energy, and even his six senses—sight, hearing, smell—had dulled, frozen in time.
But he knew he couldn’t use his flame concept to dispel the cold. That would also drive out the sword concept hiding within the frosty torment. The Sword Energy Snow Lotus worked by embedding the sword concept in the chilling energy. To keep the sword intent, he had to endure the pain.
So Max endured.
Fortunately, his body wasn’t like before. With 700 Draconic Essences flowing through his blood and the Dragon Scales Transformation enhancing his physique, his regenerative power had reached monstrous levels.
