Soul Emperor Martial God

Chapter 1488: Chapter 1488: Stopping Here?

”Comprehended one-tenth.”

In the pitch-black space, Xiao Yi slowly moved his steps, yet quickly comprehended.

In just a moment, he had comprehended one-tenth.

”Not too difficult.” Xiao Yi murmured with a smile.

”Hmm?”

However, his smile suddenly froze.

The power of the Star-cutting Sword Dao existing in the dark space suddenly became weak.

”Not right.” Xiao Yi hurriedly released his perception.

”It’s not getting weaker, it’s speeding up its movement.”

Xiao Yi’s expression tensed, as his steps moved and his figure flickered, he hurriedly chased these Sword Dao forces.

He perhaps understood the true difficulty of comprehending these sword steles in the Sword Domain event.

Undoubtedly, those who come to the Sword Domain and receive the Sword Token are all renowned sword cultivators in the Central Region.

Some might hold their ground for hundreds of years and be crowned Sword Dao Emperors.

Others might be famously outstanding Sword Dao Demons that shock the Central Region, like Fengg Ji from Sword Light Mansion, Yuee Tian from Four-direction Sword Sect, and so on, all famous Sword Dao geniuses in the Central Region.

These seasoned Sword Dao Experts or young Sword Dao Heavenly Talents are without exception, all extraordinarily gifted with unparalleled Sword Dao aptitude.

Therefore, in fact, the difficulty of comprehending Martial Arts and Sword Dao for them is not significant.

The real difficulty lies in this dark space.

If one were simply outside of the sword stele, comprehending Sword Dao with a clear mind, the difficulty would definitely not be high.

But if it is within this pitch-black space, where one cannot see their fingers, the difficulty increases significantly.

Not to mention, the current sense of Sword Dao is moving quickly.

As a swordman, one must sense this space, walk quickly, and pursue the moving Sword Dao power; in such a situation, they must maintain a clear mind and rapidly comprehend Sword Dao.

This kind of difficulty becomes extremely high.

”Interesting.” A confident smile flashed across Xiao Yi’s lips.

True heavenly talents, true demons, inherently need not worry about being hindered by comprehending Martial Arts.

In the current situation, where the difficulty has increased dramatically, it becomes even more fascinating.

Swoosh... Swoosh... Swoosh...

Xiao Yi’s figure continually flickered within the pitch-black space.

How large this dark space is, Xiao Yi doesn’t know.

But in his feeling, it’s definitely vast.

In this short flickering time, he fears he has traversed at least a hundred meters.

Ten minutes later.

”Comprehended two-tenths.” Xiao Yi smiled.

Even with these Sword Dao forces continually moving, his steps never stopped.

While pursuing, also comprehending.

However, the next second, Xiao Yi’s expression slightly changed.

He clearly sensed that the speed of the moving Sword Dao forces was accelerating.

”Could it be...” Xiao Yi furrowed his brow, a thought flashed through his mind.

Two hours later.

”Comprehended five-tenths.” Xiao Yi smiled.

At the same time, he secretly thought indeed.

Just after comprehending two-tenths, he clearly felt the speed of Sword Dao forces accelerating.

Then, after comprehending three-tenths and four-tenths, the speed continued to accelerate.

Meaning that the more the comprehension of the Sword Dao, the faster the speed of the movement of the Sword Dao.

This also means that the Martial Artist’s comprehension difficulty becomes greater.

Swoosh... Swoosh... Swoosh...

Xiao Yi’s flickering speed became faster.

Only in this way can he catch up with the swiftly moving Sword Dao.

Now Xiao Yi, though not at full speed, is already not slow.

Under such fast movement, comprehending with full effort is indeed not easy.

But this ’indeed,’ in fact, applies to others.

For Xiao Yi, though, it doesn’t really count as anything.

Because he is long accustomed to it.

The confidence on Xiao Yi’s face grew stronger.

Another hour later.

”Comprehended eight-tenths.”

The speed of the moving Sword Dao forces was now astonishingly fast.

Xiao Yi, however, still almost at full speed.

But his speed of comprehending Sword Dao had not slowed down a bit.

The reason is simple, he had long been accustomed to it.

Walking quickly while rapidly comprehending Martial Arts is often what he ’does.’

Repeatedly hunted, repeatedly squeezing his innate talent to the limit, rapidly comprehending Martial Arts or techniques, ultimately counterattacking the opponent.

In these years, he has been hunted numerous times, naturally he had long been accustomed to it.

Moreover, previously, when he was hunted, he was always in a wounded state, his mind always tense.

Now, just rapidly moving while comprehending is rather exceptionally easy.

An hour later.

”Comprehended nine-tenths.” Xiao Yi smiled.

Just by comprehending one more tenth, it would be the complete mastery of Star-cutting Sword Dao.

At this moment.

Xiao Yi looked ahead, where the originally pitch-black space, suddenly showed some bright light ahead.

”I see.” Xiao Yi realized.

The movements of Sword Dao power were guiding the way out of this dark space.

Xiao Yi’s figure quickly moved again, pursuing the Sword Dao power and rapidly comprehending.

An hour later.

Xiao Yi stopped, in front of him was the place of light.

The surrounding darkness gradually dispersed.

”Star-cutting Sword Dao, complete mastery achieved.” Xiao Yi smiled with delight.

...

At the Ten Thousand Sword Stele Forest.

Before the Sword Stele, Xiao Yi sat cross-legged, eyes closed in comprehension.

Beside him, at some unknown time, Elder Yun Yuan and Hui Deacon stood with hands behind their back.

”This kid has good courage.” Elder Yun Yuan smiled.

Hui Deacon nodded, ”This Star-cutting Sword Stele, apart from the Sword Emperor Stele, is the oldest sword stele in the Ten Thousand Sword Stele Forest.”

”The Star-cutting Sword Stele is also the stele with the greatest difficulty in comprehension.”

”This kid didn’t hesitate to sit cross-legged and comprehend, truly confident.”

Elder Yun Yuan shrugged, ”Confidence is good, but hopefully he won’t waste time.”

”If this kid fails to comprehend, this opportunity will come to an end.”

Hui Deacon heard this, furrowed his brow but soon relaxed, with a strange smile on his face.

”Looks like you worried for nothing, Yun Yuan.”

As Hui Deacon spoke, he looked towards the sword stele.

”Oh?” Elder Yun Yuan was stunned, also looked towards the sword stele, then smiled satisfactorily.

”So quickly comprehension succeeded, impressive.”

Before Xiao Yi, the sword stele suddenly shone brightly, the sword light dazzling.

In the distance, Lin Xiao and the Two Sects Sect Master hurriedly looked toward the shine from the sword stele, showing surprise on their faces.

”The sword stele’s power is activated, proving Sword Dao has been successfully comprehended.”

”This kid’s comprehension speed is fast.”

The old Sect Master of the Artifact Sect nodded, ”Among the tens of thousands of sword steles, now only this one shines brightly.”

”Among the comprehenders, this kid is the first to complete comprehension.”

”Hmm?” Lin Xiao suddenly furrowed his brow, ”That’s Senior Zhanxing’s sword stele.”

”Hiss.” Lin Xiao took a sharp breath, ”Is this kid a monster.”

The Qi Sect Master originally looked annoyed, ”He just comprehended an ordinary sword stele, naturally faster.”

”While Wan Zong comprehends the Sword Emperor Stele, naturally with greater difficulty and slower...”

”Hmm? What?” The Qi Sect Master, upon hearing Lin Xiao’s words, suddenly had a strange expression, ”This kid comprehended Senior Zhanxing’s sword stele?”

”Hahaha, if this kid sought his own death, he can blame no one else.”

”At the Sword Domain event, he stops here.”

The Qi Sect Master laughed triumphantly.

Lin Xiao and the Artifact Sect Master furrowed their brows.

...

Second update.
