Divine God Against The Heavens

Chapter 141 Ch 141: Meeting Again

Grandmaster Wang laughed and explained while stroking his long white beard.

"Sword Intent?" Ye Xiao looked at his master and 'question' could be easily seen on his face.

"Yes, sword intent." Grandmaster Wang nodded his head and said, "Intent is a type of will. The will to kill, killing intent. The will of a sword, sword intent."

"Sword Intent contained the belief of the sword and this power is displayed through the mental energy to slash. If once comprehends not only the sword intent but the true meaning behind it, then even a glance could be made into a sword, killing people with a glance."

Grandmaster Wang explained to Ye Xiao about the Sword Intent.

Ye Xiao was shocked after hearing it. He had gained much knowledge after merging with the memories of the Ancient Pill God and the Ancient Formation god but he only gained the knowledge related to pills and formations after merging.

Sword intent was something, he did not know about. After knowing what a sword intent is, he was so shocked that he could not find any words to say anything for few moments.

"Ok, go and do what you have to do. Tomorrow, we will go to the Heaven Sword Sect. The competition to select the candidates is held there. We will go in there tomorrow evening, at that time, the fourteen candidates should already have been selected."

"Yes, master!" Ye Xiao walked out of the room after talking with his master. Then he went to the inn he was staying in before when he arrived in the Imperial City for the first time.

There he once again rented a room and went inside it. After locking the gate of the room, he directly entered the Heavenly Pearl and arrived at the First Floor of the Nine Story Pagoda. Then he started cultivating the First Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique.

Three days passed soon. After three days of cultivation, he exited the Heavenly Pearl and went to the Alchemist Association at noon to meet his master.

He wanted a breakthrough in his cultivation technique and create a second dragon inside his sea of consciousness, cultivating the Second Layer of the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique but every time, something holds him back.

After meeting with his master, Grandmaster Wang, they both left for the Heaven Sword Sect.

"How astonishing?"

When they arrived at the gate of the Heaven Sword Sect, Ye Xiao was shocked to see how grand the sect was.

"Welcome Grandmaster Wang!" A middle-aged man walked forward and greeted Grandmaster Wang and nodded toward Ye Xiao. Then he led them to the place where the King and the Sect leaders of the Five Great Sect just finished selecting the candidates who will enter the Secret Realm.

After arriving, Grandmaster Wang started to talk with the sect masters of the five great sects and the King of the Azure Dragon Empire while Ye Xiao was looking at the fourteen candidates that were standing in front of him.

"Lin Hao!" When he was looking at the fourteen selected candidates, he was shocked to see that Lin Hao was one of the fourteen candidates.

Lin Hao was also looking at him at this moment. When both of their gazes collided, Lin Hao smiled and nodded at him.

Ye Xiao also nodded at Lin Hao with a smile. When he looked at Lin Hao carefully, he was again shocked that Lin Hao actually broke through to the Martial King Realm. He was at the First Stage of the Martial King Realm.

"How could this be?" Ye Xiao was really shocked at this time. It has to know that Ye Xiao's strength increased by leap and bound in these four months mainly because he can devour. But Lin Hao did not have the ability to devour.

The question that came at this moment in Ye Xiao's mind was: how did he actually breakthrough to the First Stage of the Martial King Realm in just four months?

On the other hand, Lin Hao was also shocked after seeing Ye Xiao's cultivation.

When he fought with Ye Xiao last time, he thought that he will never fight against Ye Xiao again because Ye Xiao can't increase his strength as fast as he can.

In these four months, not only he obtained many precious resources from the sect, but also with the benefit he got from the broken sword in his sea of consciousness, he finally raised his cultivation by a whole realm.

But Ye Xiao did not obtain any cultivation resources that a sect could give him. As for getting the pills for his cultivation from Grandmaster Wang, he didn't think about it because he heard from someone that just after the competition, Ye Xiao entered the Cloudsmoke Forest to train.

He never thought that the next time he will meet Ye Xiao, Ye Xiao would have already come very close to him in terms of strength.

"Ye Xiao!"

Ye Xiao was still in his shock when he heard an old voice calling him.

He turned and saw that it was the sect leader of the Profound Sky Sect that called him.

"Hmm, in only four months, you went from the Seventh Stage of the Qi Condensation Realm to the Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm. Not bad, looks like Grandmaster Wang obtained a gem from stones. You are almost as talented as Lin Hao!" The sect leader of the Profound Sky Sect stroked his beard, nodded his head, and said.

"Humph! Lin Hao had already comprehended the Sword Intent. How can this brat be as talented as Lin Hao." It was the sect master of the Heaven Sword Sect who spoke at this moment.

Ye Xiao looked at the sect master of the Heaven Sword Sect. He didn't understand why this sect leader was against him.

"Cough! Cough!"

The Sect Leader of the Profound Sky Sect coughed, then he looked at Ye Xiao and said, ignoring the sect leader of the Heaven Sword Sect, "Ye Xiao, choose any one person from these fourteen candidates and fight with him. If you can win, we will give you the last spot to enter the Secret Realm, but if you lose, you will also lose the opportunity to enter the Secret Realm."

Ye Xiao nodded his head and again looked at the fourteen candidates. This time he again saw few more familiar faces in these fourteen candidates.

Wen Xiang, who was also the grandson of the sect leader of Profound Sky Sect, was also one of the fourteen candidates. Ye Xiao noticed that Wen Xiang was actually also at the Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm.

Previously, when Ye Xiao met him, he did not look at the cultivation base of Wen Xiang but at that time, Wen Xiang told him that he sneaked out from the sect because his grandfather was not permitting him to go out until he breaks through to the Origin Core Realm.

What does it mean?

It means that at that time, Wen Xiang was also at the Qi Condensation Realm.

It's been only four and half months since he met Wen Xiang and now, only in these four and months, Wen Xiang actually also increased his strength to the Ninth Stage of the Origin Core Realm.

When he looked at Wen Xiang, Wen Xiang waved his hands toward him while smiling. Ye Xiao also responded back with a smile.

Ye Xiao also saw Lin Ling. What was shocking was that Lin Ling was actually at the Fourth Stage of the Martial King Realm and which was also the highest cultivation among the fourteen candidates.

He never thought that Lin Ling will improve this much in just a short month of time, surpassing everyone.

What is going on? Why did everyone's strength increase by this much?

Ye Xiao felt like weeping. He increased his strength by facing the life and death crisis many times but when he returned, he saw that everyone he knew, has their strength increased by leaps and bounds.

When he thought of the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf and the sacred body granted by it, the Extreme Ice Sage Body, Ye Xiao hurriedly looked at Lin Ling and saw that a different type of cold energy was coming out from her body.

Only after seeing this, he heaved a sigh of relief. It means that the reason Lin Ling's strength increased by this much was because of the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf that she swallowed and obtained the Extreme Ice Sage Body.

After obtaining the Extreme Ice Sage body, she also received a big boost in her cultivation. It was normal that her strength increased by this much after all the Extreme Ice Sage Leaf was a Seventh Grade herb that went extinct millions of years ago from the Azure Sky Continent.

Ye Xiao looked at other candidates and again saw another familiar figure.

It was Chu Feng from the Heaven Sword Sect.
