Walker Of The Worlds Chapter 1157 Sword Intent

Chapter 1157 Sword Intent

Centennial Sword Ancestor exuded a similar feeling to when Lin Mu used the Severing heart sutra. But at the same time there were major differences as well.
'The severing heart sutra is more… Fierce. The Centennial Sword ancestor does give of that feeling but the intensity is not the same.' Lin Mu thought to himself.
Other than the major difference in cultivation base, perhaps the effect would be the same for Lin Mu. His aura might become even stronger than that of the Centennial Sword ancestor.
The man in question held a rather plain looking sword in his right hand and gazed at Master White Mountain.
"So you know who I am." Centennial Sword Ancestor spoke.
"How can I not know one of our greatest enemies? Though I was hoping you all would be ignorant for a while more. Would have made things easier for us." Master White Mountain taunted.
But the Centennial Sword Ancestor did not mind it at all. His expression didn't change at all and he continued to gaze at the opponent.
"And you are called Master White Mountain… Hmm… I'll remember that." The Centennial Sword Ancestor said before raising his sword.
~SHING~
The sword hummed lightly before it was slashed out.
~HUALA~
The winds tore apart as the sword lights shot towards Master White Mountain.
"Humph!" The old man though simply harrumphed and threw out several palm imprints.
Each palm imprint met a sword light and they canceled each other out. It was evident that the two old men were relatively matched in strength.
"Good, at least now I know I can go further." The Centennial Sword Ancestor said with a smile.
He raised the sword up high, as a heart stilling aura rose form him. The aura condensed upon the sword before turning into the figure of a sword as well.
The alliance members that were watching it were stunned.
"Sword Intent… that is true Sword Intent!" Jing Luo recognized.
Lin Mu's eyes locked on to it, observing it deeply. He too had the potential to develop sword intent, but he hadn't done so because he was not focused on it as much.
Originally, Lin Mu had picked the sword as a weapon for him because it was the most common weapon to him. But later he got the thousand armament Blade Scripture and he thought that knowing how to use several weapons was better.
And while this did come in handy for him and was useful, recently he couldn't help but think that just using his body along was good too.
He found the Boulder Collapsing Fist to be his choice of skill to use. But that was when his own raw strength was not enough, which most of the times it was. His body was after all, comparable to that of a Dao Treading realm expert at his peak, and perhaps even more.
And when combined with his Qi cultivation base, it had gone even past that.
This had also put a strange dilemma before himself. The many weapons he had weren't actually able to withstand his strength!
Only those that were high grade spirit tools and weapons could do so for now and even among them, only those that were pure forging type, like his short sword, were able to do so with no issues.
Lin Mu knew that if he exerted his full power, his spirit weapons might simply break from the force.
He became greatly aware of it when he broke the armor made with the remains of the Troll Demon beast. If even a spirit tool made with the sole purpose of withstanding damage could not bear his strength, then spirit weapons meant for offense certainly wouldn't be able to.
One of the ways to go past this was to condense weapon intent.
Lin Mu had learned that not only could it increase the strength of weapons but also made them greatly durable.
It was even said that masters with great weapon intents could use anything as their weapon. For example, a swordsman with sword intent could utilize a blade of grass or a random stick as a sword and it's might not necessarily be less than a peak grade spirit sword!
Lin Mu had confidence that he would comprehend and condense his own sword intent if he worked on it for a bit with the help of the severing heart sutra. But now that the opportunity had presented to observe someone who had not only comprehended and condensed sword intent, but had raised it to a good level, Lin Mu did not let it go.
He observed how the Centennial Sword Ancestor fought and how each of his slashes contained the intent.
The sharpness within them was astounding, and they represented something entirely new. Lin Mu seemingly entered a trance and his lips started to move automatically. Faint chants came out of his lips, but others could not hear it over the noise of the battle going in the front.
Minute by minute passed as Lin Mu's comprehension only deepened.
Jing Luo who had been focused on the battle as well, suddenly felt a sense of danger coming from near him.
"What?" he quickly turned around, only to see Lin Mu staring at the battle.
His eyes were a little dull, but the aura coming from him was strange. It was as if danger and stillness intertwined and fluctuated within it.
"Lin Mu?" Jing Luo called out lightly, but received no answer.
A minute later, he was just about to move head and nudge Lin Mu, when a change occurred.
~HUMM~
Lin Mu's eyes gained a sharp tone as his aura transformed.
~KIA~ ~KIA~ KIA~
The low cry of swords was heard as everyone felt goosebumps appearing on their body. Jing Luo who saw the change in Lin Mu was shocked.
"S-sword intent? He's developing sword intent, too?" Jing Luo was surprised.
~HONG~
All of a sudden, Lin Mu's aura spiked and condensed into the illusory figure of a sword. The sword shot up into the sky and exploded into sharp winds that rained upon the army of the northern tribes!
