Peerless War God

After only three steps, the aura of the sword force that was being emitted from the air had reached the limit that Chen Xiao could currently endure. If he continued to walk forward, that wave of sword intent would definitely cause him some damage.    

Not daring to recklessly continue forward, Chen Xiao immediately sat down cross legged and started to circulate his Void Spell to cultivate. At the same time, he expanded his spiritual will to catch the sword intent in the air to start comprehending.    

At the same time, Chen Xiao started to unconsciously circulate his body techniques. He took the initiative to devour some of the sword intent that had entered his body, and directly treated the sword intent as an enhanced energy that was absorbed into his body.    

Time passed slowly. After approximately an hour, Chen Xiao opened his eyes and stood up.    

He looked at the unfathomable gorge before him and moved a few more steps forward.    

However, just now, when Chen Xiao was refining and comprehending the sword intent, he had already slightly adapted to it. Although the sword intent was strong today, Chen Xiao was already able to continue walking forward as he watched the pressure.    

After about three and a half steps, Chen Xiao stopped once again.    

The closer he was to the inside of the Sword Valley, the stronger the sword intent became. If Chen Xiao wanted to continue walking all the way to the Sword Valley, he could only rely on this method to comprehend the sword intent a little, and then slowly get closer.    

He sat down in the lotus position and continued to refine and comprehend the sword intent here, just as he had done earlier.    

Gradually, Chen Xiao got closer and closer to the Sword Valley realm. From the first thousand meters to the last five hundred meters, to the current one hundred meters!    

The whole process only lasted for about a month!    

However, the closer Chen Xiao got to the center, the longer he needed to get used to the sword intent.    

He had been able to advance once every two hours, but now, it had already been nearly half a day.    

And at this time, standing within a hundred meters and looking at the nearby canyon, Chen Xiao realized even more that it would be many times more difficult to take a step forward than before!    

However, in this one month of time, Chen Xiao's physique, which was already comparable to the late stage of Divine Emperor, had actually increased by a lot, and his own comprehension in the way of the sword had also increased by a lot, which was considered a lot.    

This also made Chen Xiao more interested in the sword intent that would follow up.    

Refining the sword intent was actually able to improve his own physique. This was a pleasant surprise for Chen Xiao.    

Other than that, in the hole at the bottom of the Sword Valley, Chen Xiao also saw a longsword stuck in a rock. At that moment, most of the pressure on Chen Xiao's sword came from the sword, only a few came from the sword scars that were left inside the canyon.    

This could also be considered as an indirect explanation for why the sword intent had not dissipated over the years. It was probably because of this sword!    

Even if he did not get a closer look, Chen Xiao could guess that this sword was definitely not an ordinary sword. It might even be a Holy-ranked weapon, and for a longsword of this level, Chen Xiao was tempted the moment he saw it. This was one of the main reasons why Chen Xiao had been trying so hard to get closer to the canyon.    

Once again looking at the sword that stood quietly, Chen Xiao slowly closed his eyes and continued to comprehend and refine the pressure brought by the sword intent.    

This refinement continued for another two months.    

At this time, there were only four months left until the one year agreement that Chen Xiao and Huangfu WanRong had made!    

At this moment, Chen Xiao had finally reached the canyon where he originally stood. The longsword that was emitting a shocking amount of sword intent was now less than a meter away from him.    

Standing on the sword's edge, Chen Xiao's gaze carefully sized up the sword, at the same time, his gaze was also somewhat curious and looked at the sword hilt a few more times.    

This was because, on the hilt, there was a pale golden jade plate. It was unknown what method was used, but that jade plate the size of a palm had been lying quietly on the hilt for so many tens of thousands of years.    

Perhaps it was because of the terrifying sword intent, but there was not a single speck of dust at the bottom of the Sword Valley. Not only was the sword's body and the jade plate, there was not even a speck of dust on the rubble that had fallen around him.    

Chen Xiao stood still and observed for a good while, before he slowly extended his hand to grab the jade tablet.    

It easily caught the jade tablet in his hand, which also made Chen Xiao's taut heartstrings loosen up a little, and his spiritual will went inside the jade tablet as well.    

Very quickly, the contents of the jade tablet appeared in Chen Xiao's mind.    

This was actually a map!    

However, the map was unclear. There was no mark of the starting point or the area. There was not even a map of what it was. There was a palace like structure marked on the map and it was over.    

After going over it over and over again to confirm that this jade tablet was indeed such a map, and that there was nothing else, Chen Xiao became slightly disappointed.    

Very quickly, Chen Xiao calmed his mind, after memorizing the map in the jade slip, he carefully kept it, and at the same time, placed his gaze on the sword that was quietly standing still.    

As if sensing Chen Xiao's gaze, the sword blade slightly trembled, and a burst of clear sword hums sounded out at the same time.    

Chen Xiao's eyes lit up, the sword seemed to have intelligence, causing Chen Xiao to be extremely happy.    

But, in the next moment, the sword suddenly released a buzzing sound, following that, in the moment Chen Xiao extended his hand out to grab it, it suddenly soared into the sky, flying towards a direction!    

"Trying to run?" Chen Xiao's eyes flashed, he suddenly extended his hand out, and grabbed the sword in mid air.    

A palm condensed from mana instantly appeared, grabbing towards the longsword.    

However, just as it was about to touch the sword, it released a clear sword hum, with the sword tip shaking twice in the air, the large hand of Dharma power that Chen Xiao had condensed instantly broke apart, and the sword, also pierced through at the same time, continuing to fly towards the horizon!    

"Sword spirit?" Chen Xiao's eyes revealed excitement and joy. Not only was he not angry at the sword's departure, he was even more surprised.    

After a martial artist nourishes it for a long time, there is a chance that it will give birth to a bit of its own intelligence. This kind of sword spirit is similar to the spirit that is naturally born in the world, and it is completely dependent on the weapon that gave birth to it. Moreover, once a weapon has a sword spirit, not only does it represent the strength of the weapon, but the sword spirit will also provide a great help for the master.    

It could be said that if a weapon had a weapon spirit or no weapon spirit, then the difference in power was at least 30%!
