I Only Marry Widows-Chapter 153 - 126: Becoming Husband and Wife, Xun Shuijing’s Gift
"Yimu Heaven-Reaching Sword Scripture," "Yellow Dragon Hidden Sword True Technique," "Profound Crane Thousand Shadows Ghostly Sword Technique," "White Tiger Ice Lying Technique," "Lihuo Shenxiao Sword Technique"...
The five peerless sword scriptures inherited within the Inner Peak are all contained within this single strand of sword light.
It appears to be just a slender thread, yet within it contains a myriad of wonders, expounding numerous mysteries and transformations.
With just a quick glance, Lu Chengfeng discovered that Xun Shuijing had cultivated all Five Peaks Great Skills to the Twenty-Seventh Layer of Perfection.
Then, using the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword Manual to harmonize the Five Great Skills, he refined a strand of Law Intent of the Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword.
Law Intent of Nine Layer Heavens represents one’s comprehension and understanding of the Law of Heaven and Earth, manifesting the fundamental power of a Divine Skill.
In martial cultivation, one can only develop one Martial True Intent, because the spiritual will must be singular and pure. Cultivating two or more Martial True Intents simultaneously would render one insane and foolish.
Yet, Law Intent is different. Law Intent evolves from True Intent, representing the harmony of Martial Arts logic with Heaven and Earth, mixing the Essence, Qi, and Spirit with the Power of Heaven and Earth, and is a special manifestation of the law of heaven and earth.
Law Intent represents the law of heaven and earth, while the martial artist’s Essence, Qi, and Spirit ultimately condense into a Primordial Spirit, with spiritual will as the root.
Law Intent is Heaven, Primordial Spirit is Man, the Unity of Heaven and Man, the beginning of the Path!
Therefore, once Law Intent is condensed, one can choose to pursue the Path of Celestial Enlightenment, further cultivating the Law Intent of this Divine Skill to a higher and more profound realm. Alternatively, one can pursue another Divine Skill to condense a new Law Intent.
Everyone has different backgrounds and foundations, thus the Law Intent they can bear varies, from one or two, to three or five, each with its limits.
Xun Shuijing’s foundation far surpasses that of the Zhao Family Ancestor’s. With just an initial contact with the gift, Lu Chengfeng gained much knowledge and insights previously unknown.
He gained a clearer and deeper understanding of True Intent, Law Intent, and Primordial Spirit.
His mind merged with a strand of five-colored sword light, vaguely sensing that this strand of five-colored sword light is fundamentally a talisman wrapped in five-colored rosy light, akin to a peacock’s plumage.
"Is this...the Law Intent of the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword?"
Immersed in the mysterious profundities, Lu Chengfeng couldn’t help but be shocked. Although he is also a Half-Step Celestial Human, compared to Xun Shuijing, Zhao Family Ancestor falls way too short.
Xun Shuijing’s gift directly coalesced into the Law Intent of the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword.
"Doesn’t this mean that if I can refine it, I can ascend instantly, directly becoming a Half-Step Celestial Human?"
Lu Chengfeng couldn’t help but feel his heart race. The gifted talent is truly terrifying, even allowing him to skip the cultivation and honing of the spiritual will, directly refining the Law Intent to achieve Half-Step Celestial Human status.
Though the spiritual cultivation cannot compare with masters of the same realm, nor could it withstand the baptism of heaven and earth, to fuse spiritual will with Essence, Qi, and Spirit, birthing a Primordial Spirit.
Yet, this is still an instant ascension, enough to drive countless people crazy.
Lu Chengfeng could no longer care about anything else, fully immersing in the mysteries of the Law Intent of the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword, attempting its initial refinement.
...
Meanwhile, Zhu Yuxian silently returned Lu Chengfeng to his room, letting no one notice her presence. 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎
When Luo Suyi saw Lu Chengfeng lying motionless on the bed, she was naturally startled, quickly checking his breathing and pulse. After a careful examination, confirming it seemed like he was just too exhausted and had unknowingly fallen asleep, she was slightly relieved.
"Husband, have you been too tired lately?" Luo Suyi murmured with a trace of heartache, quickly grabbing a thin blanket to carefully cover Lu Chengfeng.
After completing her task, she thought for a moment and exited the room, heading to the adjoining room where Qiutong and Die’Er resided.
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The door knocked, and Die’Er quickly peeked out, surprised to see Luo Suyi, and said, "Madam, why have you come?" She opened the door, "Please come in."
"No, husband is still unconscious in the room. I came over to ask Qiutong to make some nourishing food for him. I’m not very familiar with these, so I came to ask for Qiutong’s help." Luo Suyi spoke but did not enter the room.
Qiutong had already heard the commotion at the door. Upon hearing that Lu Chengfeng was unconscious, her heart skipped a beat, and she quickly went to the door, unconcerned with any personal thoughts.
"Sister, what happened? Why did husband suddenly fall unconscious?"
Luo Suyi sighed and shook her head, "I’m not entirely sure, maybe it’s just exhaustion. I can’t leave him alone in the room, so I’ll return to watch over him first."
"Please help me make some nourishing food for him, so he can eat as soon as he wakes up."
"Don’t mention trouble; we’re all family." Qiutong said, "Sister, you go back first, Die’Er and I will come over later."
Upon hearing this, Luo Suyi was relieved and said her goodbyes, hurrying back to her room.
Die’Er watched her departure, puzzled, and asked, "Master’s martial arts are profound, and his inner strength is refined, why did he suddenly pass out? Could he be injured?"
Qiutong felt increasingly uneasy and hurriedly instructed Die’Er to bring some nourishing ingredients and apply for some medicinal herbs from the mountain’s warehouse. After clear instructions, Qiutong threw on an outer coat and rushed to Lu Chengfeng’s side.
...
After settling Lu Chengfeng, Zhu Yuxian silently slipped into Du Mengyan’s room.
Du Mengyan was in a very frustrated state, wielding her Qionghua Sword inside the room as if venting. The sword light poured out like a waterfall, spreading in all directions, yet not touching any items in the room, demonstrating the exquisite nature of her swordsmanship.
But suddenly, she felt a jolt, and her Qionghua Sword turned into a shocking rainbow, swiftly slashing towards her back.
Clang!
The dazzling Qionghua Sword emitted a clear and resounding hum, then was precisely caught by a slender, white hand gripping the sword blade.
Du Mengyan’s strike did not halt. Her right leg kicked back, her white long skirt swirling, aiming directly at the Profound Sun Divine Sword she had casually placed on a table earlier.
As long as this Divine Sword was in hand, she had the confidence to escape unscathed, no matter the opponent.
However, it was too late. Almost at the same instant the Qionghua Sword was caught, a black demonic energy shot forward like a venomous snake, with incredible speed, striking Du Mengyan’s brow.
Thud!
Du Mengyan felt a momentary disorientation. When she regained clarity, the Qionghua Sword in her hand was already in the enemy’s palm, and her True Qi was sealed, rendering her immobile.
She looked at Zhu Yuxian, clad in white, with a face of peerless beauty resembling an Exiled Immortal, and said with a grim face, "Junior Martial Uncle Zhu, what are you intending?"
Zhu Yuxian replied with a cold tone, "You should understand my purpose. Hand over the Sword Manual of the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword."
Du Mengyan’s heart sank, "Martial Uncle, have you truly betrayed the Sect?"
Zhu Yuxian said, "There’s no need for you to guess. I want the Sword Manual of the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword purely for my cultivation, unrelated to Youdu."
Du Mengyan was skeptical, yet in captivity, she had to force a steady mind and said, "Martial Uncle, since you haven’t betrayed the Sect, why attack me if you merely want the Sword Manual?"
"I don’t have the Sword Manual..."
"No need for more nonsense." Zhu Yuxian directly interrupted, "I overheard your conversation with Lu Chengfeng."
Du Mengyan’s face grew sullen as she gritted her teeth, "I never thought he would betray me like that immediately after."
"Fine, very well, you two master and disciple truly open my eyes."
Zhu Yuxian remained indifferent to her words, merely saying, "Hand me the jade pendant. You are also cultivating the Great Five Elements Extinction Divine Light Sword; should you succeed in comprehending the Law Intent, you can form another jade pendant in the future."
"If you are unwilling, I will kill you now!"
Her words were soft but firm, the cold indifference in her tone chilling to the soul.
