"This is truly impressive, Brother Yuan, your progress has been unimaginably great."
Qing Yu took out the bronze mask from his bosom and placed it on his face.
Seeing this, Yuan Jianyi nodded slightly in approval. Even with the mask, it was much better than a false face.
Imdiately, Yuan Jianyi drew the ever-so-ordinary iron sword in his hand and pointed it at Qing Yu. "Co and fight!"
The intense desire for battle was palpable even without the "Turtle Mirror." The fierce montum that Yuan Jianyi had restrained reerged, and even the sword montum around him effortlessly sliced through the grass at his feet.
"This Sword Intent?!"
Qing Yu didn’t know what exactly had happened to Yuan Jianyi. His Sword Intent remained as sharp and piercing as ever, yet compared to before, it seed more restrained, not as blatantly overwhelming, but even sharper.
Despite being a considerable distance apart, Qing Yu, whose skin had been tempered by the Tenth Layer of the "Dragon Elephant Wisdom," could feel a sensation as if being pricked by needles.
"However, this is not enough..."
Suddenly, an overwhelming force burst forth from Qing Yu. An invisible Gang Qi enveloped him, completely isolating the Sword Intent.
Behind him, a bit of the Heart Dharma ford by the mysterious "Mountain Scripture" appeared, and a pair of invisible eyes that seed to see through everything in the world stared directly at Yuan Jianyi. This was indeed the manifestation of the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill" in the Heart Dharma.
"Brother Yuan, holding that iron sword, you won’t be able to defeat . Discard the sword, and unleash your full strength."
Now, with the "Heavenly Son’s Qi Observation Skill," Qing Yu had finally seen through what set Yuan Jianyi apart from others in the Sword Tao Palace.
Every disciple of the Sword Tao Palace greatly valued their swords, and only with the swords they had always communicated with could they truly exert their strength. Even if the Sword was damaged, as long as it was in hand, the swordsmanship of the Sword Tao Palace remained unrivaled.
However, Yuan Jianyi, as the most outstanding disciple of the Sword Tao Palace, was completely different from the others.
To prevent damage to the Sword, other mbers of the Sword Tao Palace ultimately chose a sword that, if not an unrivaled famous sword, was still a sharp weapon of the era. But Yuan Jianyi chose an ordinary iron sword as his weapon—a sword that could be bought from any blacksmith shop.
Furthermore, Yuan Jianyi was very quick to change his swords. As soon as an iron sword was damaged, he would replace it with a new one, completely disregarding the principle of Heart Sword Communication cherished by the Sword Tao Palace.
Surprisingly, despite changing swords so frequently, Yuan Jianyi’s strength remained undiminished. He still was the second greatest contemporary figure, who once ranked second on the Dragon and Phoenix List, and even upon reaching the Divine Origin Realm, his prowess was extraordinary.
And now, Qing Yu had finally seen through the true nature of all this.
"Brother Yuan truly possesses excellent talents, born with a Sword Bone. He also has trendous courage and talent, having tempered himself as if he were a sword," Qing Yu couldn’t help but admire.
With his innate Sword Bone, Yuan Jianyi was destined for a limitless future in the Sword Dao, which also spoke of his exceptional talents.
But what contributed to his extraordinary achievents today was not only because of his naturally ford Sword Bone, but also due to his great courage.
Naturally ford Sword Bone, although extrely rare, is not exaggerated to say that there is no predecessor. Throughout human history, spanning tens of thousands of years, there have been at least eighty, if not a hundred, people with naturally ford Sword Bone. However, among them, no one has ever treated their own body as a sword for refinent.
Many people have used their bodies as swords, but absolutely none of them had naturally ford Sword Bone. Because those with naturally ford Sword Bone inherently contain sharp Sword Qi, using the body-as-sword thod for refinent would enhance the already sharp Sword Qi to new heights. The Sword Qi would radiate outwards, consuming all flesh and blood, leaving only a body of Sword Bone.
Therefore, for those with a naturally ford Sword Bone, using their body as a sword is not rely a matter of willpower, and enduring the pain of Sword Qi tempering is not enough for success. Too much sharpness in a sword can damage its sheath, and for those with naturally ford Sword Bone, their flesh is their sheath.
Yuan Jianyi had naturally ford Sword Bone yet could use his body to refine it. His courage was secondary, as long as he was not afraid of life and death, what really mattered was his talent, which allowed him to achieve what no one had before.
Thus, the object of Yuan Jianyi’s Heart Sword Communication was also clearly himself. A Sword Heart paired with a naturally sword-like body, it’s no wonder Yuan Jianyi could engage the Sword Intent contained within the Holy Sword Stele.
The iron sword that Yuan Jianyi had always used as his main weapon was nothing more than a way for him to limit his own Sword Qi strength, rely to keep his battles interesting. Yuan Jianyi without his sword was Yuan Jianyi at his full strength.
"This, then, will depend on your skills."
Yuan Jianyi ran his hand over the body of the iron sword, and the ordinary sword, upon his touch, completely turned into a radiant white sword light, as if it transford into a Light Sword, dazzling to the extre.
People who were leisurely surrounding the area finally noticed the anomaly with these two n. Their energies initially confined within the vicinity, unnoticed by those less skilled in martial arts, but now with Yuan Jianyi holding such a dazzling Light Sword, if they still couldn’t see it, they were all blind.
"Gong Ziyu, it’s Gong Ziyu!"
Yuan Jianyi was primarily active in Daqian, unrecognized by these people, but Gong Ziyu’s signature bronze mask was now known by everyone in the world.
It was precisely because they recognized Gong Ziyu that the crowd, initially gathering to watch the excitent, scattered in every direction to flee.
They were joking—Gong Ziyu often destroyed families and obliterated clans, and everyone knew of his ruthless thods. Staying here was like waiting for death.
Yuan Jianyi paid no mind to the actions of others. At this mont, in his eyes, there was only Gong Ziyu.
Still as straightforward and direct in his swordsmanship, Yuan Jianyi struck downwards with a swift, fierce sword strike as usual, only the sharpness was more intense than before. However, the Sword Intent that previously made Qing Yu’s skin feel as if it were being pricked by needles had now vanished.
This did not an Yuan Jianyi wasn’t exerting full strength. At this mont, he was displaying his full strength with an iron sword. The Sword Intent was completely withdrawn into the sword, revealing nothing externally, making his sword appear not much different, but the threat level had indeed escalated dramatically.
"’Innate Gang Qi’ and ’Heavenly Gang Child Skill’ are a bit too slow now."
The Protective Gang Qi that enveloped him no longer provided the full sense of security it once did. Against ordinary Divine Origin Realm martial artists it was still effective, but it was hardly useful against a genius like Yuan Jianyi with astounding strength.
But if he faced ordinary Divine Origin Realm martial artists, Qing Yu could kill them within a few moves at this mont, and his Protective Gang Qi would even be completely unnecessary.
"I need further advancent in Protective Martial Arts techniques," Qing Yu thought to himself.
As thoughts flashed through his mind, in reality, Yuan Jianyi’s sword was already slashing towards his forehead, its chilling Sword Qi cutting a lock of hair fluttering in front of his forehead completely off. Even the Protective Gang Qi couldn’t defend against the sharpness of Yuan Jianyi from the Divine Origin Realm.
