Ace Of Terrans

Chapter 536 Seven Steps.

?

While the elders were discussing things, Shi Lang channeled all his energy into maintaining the pulsation of his sword intent. He took three steps consecutively, and then the pressure of the intent around him increased exponentially. Shi Lang was forced to stay still. If the frequency of his pulsations decreases, it will harm him. 

He expected the spirit of Lightning Shura to do something like this. However, the burden on his body was making him shiver. Shi Lang thought, 'Why am I facing all this? Because I am not willing to follow his way? Since that is the case, I do not have to hold back.' 

The more he thought, the angrier he became. His blood circulation increased, and after a few seconds, the pulsation frequency also increased. The pressure on his back was reduced. Taking advantage of this, Shi Lang put another step forward. The phantom of the Lightning Shura watched this and snorted. 

The pressure increased again. This time Shi Lang sensed a tear on his robe. He frowned and thought, 'It turns out that the intent of sharpness is not so simple.'

Raksha commented, 'Indeed, did you think if it were that simple, the forces of the central plains would have suppressed this guy? They understood that he would climb to the top ranks if given a chance, which would hinder many people. This world is filled with humans, also. They all are driven by the desire to survive and benefit.' 

Shi Lang nodded and, looking at the situation, said, 'If I followed this method to sustain and take the next few steps, my heart would give up by the fourth step.' 

Raksha nodded and said, 'Even if you use the spirit. Energy to barricade your heart, the muscle will give up, and the regenerative ability of a terran will not be able to keep up either. The damage will take a few days to heal, and you will need special herbs.' 

Shi Lang sighed and replied, 'In the end, it is all about how desperate I am to protect my individuality.' 

Raksha nodded. She thought and said, 'What if I aid your heart too?' 

The terran was confused, and he asked, 'What do you mean by aiding, do not hide anything.' 

The sword spirit said, 'You think too much. My existence is composed of spiritual energy completely. I can inject a wisp of my spiritual energy, and your heart will be fine. However, to compensate, you must find liquid spirit for me.' 

Shi Lang thought about it and said, 'Deal. I will find you liquid spirit.' 

Raksha nodded, and the wisp of spirit energy in his hairpin came alive. To maintain secrecy, Raksha mobilized that wisp directly from the skull and then traveled through the blood vessels, and after a few seconds, it reached the heart. The Sword Spirit said, 'You take the outside, and I will handle the inside.' 

Shi Lang took a deep breath, sensing warmth surging in his heart. He gazed at the phantom and said, "So, this is it." 

His heart began racing. It jumped from the normal seventy-two beats to one hundred eighty in a blink. Raksha was surprised and remarked, 'Terrans have grown surprisingly strong.'

Shi Lang did not react and channeled the sword intent out of his body. The output was so sudden that the phantom was taken aback. The terran exploited the situation and took three strides forward. Four lightning streaks broke from the thunderclouds and fell on the ground. 

...

Lei Wang and the rest of the elders took a few steps back, and they did not expect the lightning streaks to fall so close to them. After the streaks vanished, Long Shan moved closer to the spots where the lightning fell and gulped before saying, "Sect Leader, all these spots radiate a strong sword intent. We need to secure them." 

Lei Wang was shocked too, and he did not expect it to be such a thing. He said, "All the elders, please take action." 

The elders moved and cast protective arrays around these spots. Lei Wang said, "These sites will be used for the disciples to comprehend the sword intent on normal days. The most outstanding disciples will be sent to the monument." 

The elder nodded and said, "These spots will help the sect forces grow stronger." 

Lei Wang nodded and could not help but look at the top of the monument. His mind would eventually return to the thoughts of that young man who helped them understand the secret behind this monument.  I think you should take a look at

...

Shi Lang stood on his spot and now needed to take four steps. Although the pressure was high, it was still within his tolerance range. The Sword Spirit inside his soul sea said, 'Lang, you need to do something, and soon. The spirit energy is exhausting too quickly. I did not expect this guy to be so despicable.'

Shi Lang replied, 'Well, you are not alone to think this guy will come and stain his image in my heart like this.' 

As he said this, he stopped. He realized Shi Lang was chasing after the strength of the Lightning Shura all this time, yet here he was trying to say that he valued individuality. He did not notice a smirk at the corner of the phantom's lips as he thought.

The thought that all he had been doing was only chasing after someone deeply impacted his mind. Raksha said, 'You realized it, right?'

The terran nodded and said, 'Seems like the goal has changed. I do not have to defend my individuality by defying this man but by surpassing him.' 

Raksha nodded and said, 'Good job, now will you please finish it? I am bored, and I want to go back to sleep.' 

Shi Lang nodded and closed his eyes. To surpass this man, he needed to understand what made him strong. Thinking about it, he began listing all the differences between his strength and Lightning Shura. While Shi Lang mastered the intent of destruction back on the Federation, the Shura followed the path of sharpness. Everything in his path was to be slain and chopped in two. 

Shi Lang believed in destruction, nothing of what his enemy was. Even the ideas should not remain once they fight. He has been doing just that. The state of indifference allowed him to move forward without any hesitation in his mind. 

As he thought, he realized why he differed from the Shura even when following the same sutra. Shura was a person who always reacted under the influence of his emotions. He would rather bloodbath the entire world than settle. 

Shi Lang would only destroy those who could not be dealt with peacefully. Thinking about this, he calmed down. Gradually he entered a state of indifference, and he was not bloodthirsty at this moment but extremely calm and logically analyzing the situation. 

Different people define things differently. Shi Lang understood the shift in situation, and his sword intent calmed down. It was still channeling, but the pulsation did not need the support of his blood flow synchronization. 

The terran gained a new understanding of his sword, and his control of the sword's intent became stronger. The qualitative leap allowed him to shatter the barriers before him. He was facing the Lightning Shura outside, and the ideas of strength he had followed all his life. 

The sudden change seemed too much, but his beliefs did not faze. Shi Lang charged ahead with all his might. He raised his foot and stepped forward under the overwhelming pressure. However, this was his seventh step in total. Now he had to take three more to reach the number of ten. 

Shi Lang realized that the change in his last seven steps changed his entire mindset. The LIghtning shura said, "If you manage to change so much and accept the fact that what you have been doing was wrong, not only will you be able to find a new way to the peak, but you will also become the master of your sword, and your destiny. 

I ask you, Shi Lang, do you wish to move forward and reach the peak? Do you wish to live the way you want?" 

Shi Lang smirked and said, "You do not need to dramatize the scene. I have always wanted to live the way I want, I always lived like that, and from now on, I will live the same way again. I do not care about anything, but I will never regret what I did or am about to do." 

The phantom nodded and saw Shi Lang take a step forward. The pressure could not molt Shi Lang's spirit, and the terran moved forward with the conviction to surpass the phantom of the person he had been chasing. 

His sword intent radiated the meaning of destruction, sharpness radiated from his sword, and the curtain of lightning spark was cut. Shi Lang walked forward calmly. He took three more steps and affirmed his thoughts to the phantom. He destroyed the pressure in the five feet radius around him. 

He said, "You might be thinking, why can I walk so freely? I have established my dao path. Regardless of the path I take, I will surpass you." 

The clouds thundered and lightning streaks were discharged.
