Yes, that's right! What Celaine needs in order to form this Core and use this Cultivation Technique is to comprehend Saber Intent.
From what Celaine knew, Saber Intent, or any Weapon Intent at that, is what separates the ordinary people from a master, at least in terms of their respective weapons.
One can only access or form Weapon Intent when their understanding of the fundantals of their weapon reaches the maximum. It can also be considered the First Realm of Weapon Cultivation. The *insert any weapon na* Intent Realm.
Weapon Cultivation is Similar to one's Dao. Well, so Masters say that it's actually the beginning, or the Foundation, of one's own Weapon Dao, but Celaine wouldn't know anything about that.
However, Intent is quite the unique power as it's hard to categorize. It's just a materialization of one's understanding of one's weapon. Depending on multiple factors like willpower, ntality, and Intent Comprehension, the power of one's intent can vary greatly.
Although that may be the case, anyone who is able to Comprehend Weapon Intent certainly isn't an average person. Therefore, generally, anyone who is able to do such a thing will be treated highly by most Clans, Sects, and/or Families.
That's why Celaine was so surprised because the basic requirent of the Wind Saber Core and Wind Saber Cultivation Technique is being able to use Saber Intent!
"Ummm… Elenei, it seems like I'm going to need a bit more of your help. The Core Formation Recipe I received from Mira just changed. Not only that, but I received a Cultivation Technique along with it!"
"What?! What do you an?! How is that even possible? What are the new ingredients you need?"
When Elenei heard what Celaine needed, she was both shocked and a bit scared because when she looked in her storage ring, she realized that the new items on the recipe were her best wind-elent items.
She was shocked because she had never heard of a Core Formation Recipe needing such items.
However, she was scared because it seed who or whatever changed the recipe knew what was in her spatial ring or could at least peek inside without her knowledge.
Although those treasures had little aning to her, she didn't want to give them up to so Mortal in the Foundation Realm she's only known for a few years.
Unfortunately, it didn't seem like she had much of a choice. The new Recipe was clearly ford because of the items in her possession. If she were to go against soone who not only had the power to create such a Core but could also peek into HER spatial ring without her knowing…
She shuddered just thinking about it!
With a slightly pained heart, she handed over those items like a good little Phoenix.
After receiving the items, Celaine could now begin focusing on trying to comprehend Saber Intent.
"Hey Elenei, can you drop off on so mountain? I'd like it to be close to the Battle Maiden Sect's Main Branch and not have any beasts higher than Rank 7 on it. After you drop off, you can go back to Mira." Celaine gave Elenei one last request, much to the latter's dismay.
However, she's already gone this far for Celaine, so she might as well see it through to the end.
Elenei nodded her head, and in just half a day, they found the perfect place for Celaine to spend the next, who knows how long, training.
After dropping Celaine off, Elenei imdiately fled the area! She didn't want that mysterious entity to suddenly decide that she needed to give more of her treasures to Celaine!

"Hahaha! That silly Phoenix really thought I'd force her to hand over her treasures to that little girl! Well, I guess I can kind of understand why she would think that, but it's not like I threatened her or anything! It was all a misunderstanding! A misunderstanding!"
"Well, whatever. Anyways, I should probably limit my interactions with Mira's friends. I really shouldn't be interacting with them this much, but I just can't bear to see them fall out with Mira because they can't keep up with her strength. Being strong is lonely, and I don't want Mira to have to bear that kind of pain in the future."
The Guardian thought aloud as he watched Celaine before switching his focus on Mira again.

When Celaine was dropped off at the base of the mountain, she quickly made her way through the forestation in search of a place she could isolate herself for days or even months at a ti.
Luckily, it didn't take her long to find a cave hidden on a cliffside that was perfect for her needs.
At least, that's what she thought when she first entered, but it wasn't until she reached the cave's end that she found sothing that sowhat shocked and confused her.
There in front of her lay a woman, seemingly in her mid-twenties. She had black hair, was about 175 centiters tall, incredibly pale, and was covered in wounds.
She had a small hole in the side of her stomach, one of her shoulders was dislocated, and both arms looked to be either fractured or broken. One of her legs was bent in the wrong direction, and there were countless scratches, burn marks, and various other wounds covering her body.
However, despite all that, she still seed to be alive, albeit barely. Well, Celaine assud it's probably because of the girl's cultivation which was Stage 1 Core Formation Realm. She also seed stronger than your average Stage 1 Core Formation Realm expert, as Celaine didn't think she'd be able to handle her just based on the woman's Qi fluctuations alone.
Now, she has a few options available to her at this mont.
1: She can help try and nurse the woman back to a state where she doesn't look like a breathing corpse.
2: She can ignore this whole situation and find another cave.
3: She can kill the dying woman in front, plunder any valuables she may have, and forget about this encounter.
Of course, Celaine would never choose option number 3. Unless the person in front of her were an enemy, she would never wield her saber against an unard person that is on the verge of dying.
As for ignoring the dying woman in front of her, Celaine didn't think she could do that. This may be a world filled with blood, death, and betrayals, and she wasn't so naive to think that just because a person is on the brink of death like this doesn't an they weren't the ones in the wrong in the first place.
The woman in front of her could be a notorious mass murderer or soone who tortured and ate babies.
'Wait, aren't I already friends with a mass murderer?' Celaine joked to herself and ca to a conclusion.
She would help nurse the woman back to health!
