Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 1262: Chapter 1261: Condensing the Sword Spirit

In his mind, a vast Mental Power like a storm violently surged towards the position of the Sword Spirit!

Countless dense black lines shot straight towards the Sword Spirit Embryo located in the center of Ling Chen’s mind.

Ling Chen held his breath and focused, and suddenly a layer of radiance appeared on the central Sword Spirit Embryo, becoming transparent.

Swish, swish, swish!

The black lines successively drilled into the Sword Spirit Embryo and then disappeared. When all those dense black lines entered the Sword Spirit Embryo, the cyan-golden Sword Spirit Embryo was suddenly tinged with black.

However, at the very next moment when these lines entered the Sword Spirit Embryo, an astonishing swallowing power was released from within, visibly absorbing all the black aura on the surface of the Sword Spirit.

After absorbing the Energy of one Soul Ghostly Fruit, the Sword Spirit Embryo became much more solid, emitting a sharp fluctuation.

The Energy of the Soul Ghostly Fruit compressed like threads of blood within the Sword Spirit Embryo, condensing the power of the Sword Spirit, causing Ling Chen’s Sword Spirit Embryo to shrink rapidly to nearly two-thirds of its original size.

”The Energy of one Soul Ghostly Fruit still falls a bit short.”

A flicker of light appeared in Ling Chen’s eyes as he took out the second Soul Ghostly Fruit and swallowed it without hesitation.

When the second Soul Ghostly Fruit entered his body, the Mental Power storm in Ling Chen’s mind intensified, and the color of the Sword Spirit deepened, emitting a hissing sound.

Under the powerful Energy of the second Soul Ghostly Fruit, the Sword Spirit Embryo finally started to transform!

Impurities were burned into nothingness, wisps of blue smoke rising from the Sword Spirit Embryo, with Ling Chen feeling as though his head was about to split open, a pain so intense it was as if his mind was being roasted by fire, nearly ripping his brain in two.

The Sword Spirit Embryo must be compressed several times, even ten times or twenty times, for a complete transformation, as the Sword Spirit Embryo is merely an embryo containing excessive non-essential Energy; only through compression can it become truly indestructible.

Once the Sword Spirit is successfully condensed, Ling Chen can greatly unleash the power of Saint Sword Intent linked to it.

This compression and condensation process lasted nearly One hour, and at this moment, beads of sweat were dripping from Ling Chen’s forehead, while deep inside his mind, the Sword Spirit Embryo had compressed to roughly one foot in length, a fraction compared to its previous several feet.

Yet, Ling Chen was delighted with these changes; the more compressed the Sword Spirit, the greater its toughness and strength, thus its future potential is enormous.

”Sword Spirit, Congeal!”

Suddenly Ling Chen opened his eyes, a sharp glint flashing across his gaze as the aura of the Sword Spirit in his mind shook intensely, then rapidly shrank, solidifying completely.

Crack!

At the moment the aura stabilized, a crack surfaced on the Sword Spirit, spreading like a web, dense and disintegrating into countless black fragments that fell away from its surface.

After those black fragments fell off, an exceedingly glaring cyan-golden light burst from the Sword Spirit, filling the entire mind, illuminating like the sun and moon!

Once the light dissipated, the Sword Spirit revealed its true form, a layer of razor-sharp cold rays rippling across it, resembling a true divine weapon, solid as reality.

”It’s done!”

A gleam flashed in Ling Chen’s eyes. The Energy of two Soul Ghostly Fruits truly is extraordinary; despite a tough process, they helped him condense a complete Sword Spirit effortlessly!

This Sword Spirit encompassed multiple attributes of Sword Intent, ethereal, overbearing, slaughtering, absolute kill... Yet, these Sword Intent attributes showed no rejection or conflict, tightly controlled by Ling Chen.

The complete Sword Spirit is undeniably far more powerful than the Sword Spirit Embryo; Saint Sword Intent draws its power from the Sword Spirit; now that the Sword Spirit is formed, Ling Chen’s Sword Intent naturally becomes stronger, enhancing the power of his Swordsmanship and techniques.

One pull sets the whole body in motion.

The Sword Spirit is indeed the core for a Sword Saint.

Upon successfully condensing the Sword Spirit, Ling Chen entered a state of enlightenment, seeing the surrounding environment clearly, even each speck of dust in the secret chamber, with his thoughts spinning hundreds of times faster!

”Heaven-wide Integration State!”

Ling Chen exclaimed. The Heaven-wide Integration State is a rare special state triggered during cultivation and breakthrough with low probability, greatly enhancing understanding and insight, making martial arts easier to comprehend.

This Heaven-wide Integration State is something many warriors dream of, elusive yet highly desired, unexpectedly activated by Ling Chen serendipitously.

Ling Chen wouldn’t miss such a great opportunity for martial arts comprehension.

He closed his eyes, entering Kongming State, starting with True Essence of Fire; under Ling Chen’s rapid deduction, it broke through the nine-tenths bottleneck, reaching full mastery.

Likewise, Thunder Intent accelerated like a rocket, from eight-tenths fire to full ten-tenths mastery!

True Essence of Fire and Thunder Intent reached Great Accomplishment in no time, saving Ling Chen months or even years of hard work.

”Next is Green Lotus Sword Song.”

Ling Chen swiftly recalled the Green Lotus Sword Song techniques in his mind, from the first move Green Lotus Reaching the Sky to the sixth move Riding the Wind with the Sword, quickly flashing in his mind; at that moment, a flicker of blue light emerged on the Treasure Sword in Ling Chen’s hand.

An extremely sharp Sword Intent radiated out from Ling Chen, splitting the surrounding secret chamber walls with cracks.

On that blue light, indistinct characters appeared, akin to a poem, flickering vaguely.

Yet, just as Ling Chen was about to comprehend a sword technique, his momentum suddenly diminished, and the Heaven-wide Integration State that boosted Ling Chen’s perception vanished.

”What a pity.”

An expression of regret surfaced on Ling Chen’s face; he almost figured out the seventh move of the Green Lotus Sword Song but couldn’t due to the fleeting Heaven-wide Integration state.

No matter. During that brief moment, Ling Chen already grasped the essence of the seventh move of the Green Lotus Sword Song; comprehending the seventh sword technique should not be difficult.

”Now that the complete Sword Spirit has been successfully condensed, I wonder just how powerful it is when unleashed.”

A hint of keen light shined in Ling Chen’s eyes; the strength of his Sword Spirit greatly enhanced, and its unleashed force has reached an incredible level.

”The Sword Spirit is formed; next, only the condensation of the Saint Body remains.”

Ling Chen brushed the dust off himself, standing up from the ground; once the complete Saint Body is successfully condensed, he can charge into the Saint Realm.

Once he becomes a Saint, his power surge will be extremely formidable.

”Now it’s time to leave. To the old guys of Desolate Fire City, it’s time for a revenge well repaid.”

A flicker of coldness welled up in Ling Chen’s eyes as he moved straight towards the secret chamber’s door, disappearing from the spot.
