Chapter 85 - Sword Domain!
Chapter 85 - Sword Domain!
Ye Tian Yun felt an intense headache as he slowly regained his consciousness. Sitting upright on his bed, he looked around his room. As he gradually returned to his senses, he suddenly found himself shocked by the powerful feeling flowing throughout his body. He corrected his posture, sat cross-legged, and began to concentrate on his dantian to feel the source of this power.
Soon he was able to feel the existence of something in his dantian. As soon as he recognized it, he found it hard to control his excitement, "Damn, I really did regain my sword domain."
Taking a deep breath, he calmed his emotion and took out a sword from his spatial ring.
"It's time to feel the domain once again."
However, just as he was about to activate his sword domain, he was stopped by a sudden warning prompt from the system.
[Host is advised to stop. You cannot control the sword domain just yet.]
Ye Tian Yun found it a bit ridiculous, "What do you mean I can't control? I have already used my sword domain in my previous life. I can definitely control it."
[System insists to the host not to try. The host may have controlled it earlier; however, the host was a Half Saint Realm cultivator at that time, but now, he is still in the Tri-Qi Stage. System suggests that he should hold back the urge for some time and practice it at a secluded place before you use it.]
Ye Tian Yun felt this was quite logical. Considering the amount of disturbance a sword domain can cause, and with the presence of elders who are in the Foundation Establishment Realm or higher, it will be harder to escape their senses and he could even be caught. It was still not time for him to get a lot of limelight.
He then nodded for a bit and asked the system to show him his status window.
'Show me my status.'

Ye Tian Yun found some changes in the screen in front of him; most glaring were two, the first one being his cultivation and the other one was the new tab, sword intent.
"System, my cultivation is not suppressed anymore?"
[When Host underwent breakthrough to the Sword Domain, he lost control over his cultivation and released his suppressed cultivation.]
"Looks like I will need to buy one more Aura Suppressing Pill. What about the Sword Intent tab, what do you mean by 1% of the Sword Domain? Is the amount of power I have unlocked? And how much will it increase once I invest ten thousand Kill Points in it?"
[Host has indeed unlocked 1% of his sword domain, and you will be able to unlock one more percent of your Sword Domain after consuming ten thousand kill points.]
"Damn, that's expensive! This sword domain will consume my kill points like a bottomless pit!" josei
[Everything set by the system is fair.]
Ye Tian Yun knew he couldn't argue anymore about this, so he left this topic and asked, "...And you were saying that I can't control my Sword domain? Did you mean that I can't even control one percent of my previous life's peak power?"
[What you think is half right. It is indeed right that you cannot control your sword domain at will; however, the one percent is not of the host's peak power in his previous life. Rather, the one percent signifies the power of the Sword Domain in itself.]
"Wait… then does it mean that, in future, if I upgrade my Sword Domain to a hundred percent, Will I be able to upgrade my Sword Intent to the Sword Soul realm?"
[Yes, Host will be able to achieve the fabled Sword Soul.]
Ye Tian Yun took a deep breath as he processed what he had just heard. For the first time in both of his life, he saw a path or even a hint to achieve Sword Soul.
But when it flashed in his mind that even his father didn't focus on cultivating his sword domain, his excitement died down a bit.
As per the record of the previous era, Heaven's Will can track down any cultivator who reaches the Sword Soul Realm. It then sends lightning tribulations upon the unfortunate cultivator until only a charred body is left.
The only way to deter Heaven's Will is to possess the Emblem of Authority, also known as the God Emblem and can only be obtained by claiming the other for Emblem, making this task nigh impossible.
Ye Tian Yun sighed as he again remembered his main goal, to summon the Emblem of Authority.
"It will take some time to summon that Emblem; for now, I need to focus on the current situation and take one step at a time. There's no point worrying about the future when I can't even control my present."
"System, I wish to buy a high-grade Aura Suppressing Pill."
[Host had successfully bought an Aura Suppressing Pill.]
[300 Kill Points Consumed]
[Remaining Kill Points: 9047]
"System, suppress my cultivation to the First Level of Qi Condensation Realm. That should be enough."
[System advises the host to suppress his cultivation back to the previous stage to not to attract much attention. You just said you don't wish to attract unnecessary attention.]
"Well, I don't want the attention by revealing Sword Domain. However, the First realm of Qi Condensation is no big deal. I can just say that I breakthrough last night, and no one will find it suspicious. However, if the fact that I have unlocked the Sword Domain were to come to light, I will face a lot of attention, good or bad. Also, we shouldn't forget whose disguise I am using.. A lot of schemes surrounded fang Chen, and he himself wished to keep a low profile."
