The instant Shang Xia’s sword qi moved, Mu Qingyu felt as though she had reached the end of her life. Terror filled her heart. She knew that she would be helpless if the sword qi released its energy and attacked her, and a helpless expression appeared on her face.

All of a sudden, the sword qi that were ready to turn her into meat cubes quietened down. They returned to normal.

Only then did Mu Qingyu realize that her clothes were completely drenched in her own perspiration.



Shang Xia didn’t expect his comprehension of his Yin Yang Sword Formation to go so smoothly. 

Turning to look at the tablet again, Shang Xia realized that a slight modification had been made.

Martial Intent: Yin Yang Sword Formation (Can be advanced)

Prerequisite Cultivation Technique: Yin Yang Mysterious Transformation (Large Completion Stage) (Ice and Fire, Softness and Strength, Void and Reality, Light and Heavy)

Prerequisite Martial Art: Flexible Sword Art, Cloud Drizzle Sword Art, Twisting Twin Blade

Requirement: Yin Yang Diagram

Medicine Required: Meridian Tempering Powder, Meridian Replenishing Powder, Expanding Meridian Powder

Required Item: Yin Yang Sword Talisman

Success Rate: 80%-90%

Shang Xia was ready to comprehend his martial intent. All he needed was to create the Yin Yang Sword Talisman in his dantian! Even before he tried comprehending his martial intent, he had been practicing diligently. He was more than familiar with how he should proceed.

Moreover, Shang Xia could borrow the blood red tablet’s strength when creating his Yin Yang Sword Talisman! It wasn’t the first time he had drawn on the strength of the tablet anyway! 

When he comprehended his first martial intent in the Martial Realm, he dug out the Lightning Collection Blood Art using the tablet’s abilities. Because of the nature of the lightning that struck him the Lightning Collection Blood Art also transformed into the Heavenly Lightning Collection Blood Art. When he first transmigrated, he was in so much confusion that he couldn’t think of anything else. He comprehended his martial intent with the help of the blood red tablet. 

With the experience he gained so far, Shang Xia started to think about the problem from another angle. The crack on the tablet might not be caused by the optimization of the medicine he used to advance. It might have been damaged when he was struck by heavenly lightning when he just transmigrated.

Well, since he was also trying to comprehend his martial intent now that he was at the Martial Extremity Realm, things shouldn't be too much different. The Yin Yang Essence Qi in his dantian started to transform.

After comprehending the secret art he developed himself, he didn’t have to wait passively for the blood red tablet to do its thing. Instead, he started the comprehension process himself. The Yin Yang Sword Talisman’s formation wasn’t hindered by anything.

With his Yin Yang Essence Qi transforming to fire and ice qi, he controlled them along the path required when he unleashed the Twisting Twin Blades. When he completed one cycle, the outline of a rune would start to form.

Eventually, two vague swords created by those runes appeared in his dantian. One of them was icy blue, and the other was fiery red. Eventually, they entered the spinning Yin Yang Diagram. 

The instant it happened, Shang Xia felt as though his understanding of the Twisting Twin Blade reached a whole new level. In fact, the evolution made Shang Xia understand that it had already turned into true sword intent! 

Looking at the blood red tablet in his sea of consciousness, Shang Xia could see that his comprehension of the Yin Yang Sword Formation was already completed! However, if he stopped right there, he would only be able to use the sword intent containing fire and ice qi in his martial intent!

Of course, just that alone caused Shang Xia to feel several times stronger than before! He could tell that his strength took a huge leap forward!

With a single intention, two corporeal swords appeared above the Yin Yang Diagram. Sword intent that contained the element of fire and ice emerged from his body, causing the space around him to fluctuate. Strands of fire and ice sword intent spun around him.

They protected him carefully and could be deployed at any time to form his sword formation.

Throughout the process, fire and ice qi would flow through his veins simultaneously, they would bring about some pressure when flowing through them. If his meridians hadn’t been expanded and strengthened by the medicine he ingested earlier, they might have exploded under the pressure! One had to know that when Shang Xia fused both types of qi when unleashing the final attack of his sword arts in the past, he would have to dissipate the energy contained in his meridians after every strike.

His improvements were impressive. Even though fire and ice qi were flowing simultaneously in his meridians, it was far from what Shang Xia could ensure!

When he was done with the transformation of fire and ice qi, he felt a pair of eyes watching him intently.

The feeling was extremely subtle, but Shang Xia had entered a miraculous state. His eyes were closed, but fusing his senses with the sword qi around him, he noticed the anomaly. 

Mu Qingyu! 

She had already shattered the restrictions Zhu Ying placed on her body! For a cultivator at the Martial Realm to break through Zhu Ying’s restrictions… It seemed as though she was still hiding a lot of secrets!

Even so, Shang Xia couldn’t really be bothered with her. Now that he had successfully comprehended his martial intent, albeit with only fire and ice qi, he would still be more than capable of defending himself against the little girl. 

Mu Qingyu could try with all her might and not hurt Shang Xia in the slightest!

Naturally, Shang Xia didn’t forget that he had a long way to go. There were still several types of qi he had to fuse into his sword formation!

Since he was done with fire and ice qi, his Yin Yang Essence Qi started to transform again. This time, it became softness and strength qi.

Like before, it experienced a fundamental change before turning into sword runes that flew into his Yin Yang Diagram. 

Two more swords appeared above his Yin Yang Diagram, and the type of qi flowing through his meridians increased to four. 

Even more sword qi formed around him. This time, they weren’t made of fire and ice. Instead, sword qis with tyrannical might and supple properties emerged. With the addition of a second pair of sword qi, the might of his Yin Yang Sword Formation more than doubled!

After that was done, the amount of qi flowing in his meridians started to approach the limit of what his meridians could contain. A smile subconsciously appeared on his face. There was still room for another pair of qi!

Once again, his Yin Yang Essence Qi in his dantian started to transform. It became slightly illusory, and eventually, sword runes made from void and reality qi sank into the Yin Yang Diagram.

Two more swords appeared above his Yin Yang Diagram!

Even though Shang Xia could transform his inner qi to light and heavy qi too, he didn’t possess the corresponding technique to create the sword runes required! He lacked a technique to control light and heavy qi and he could only settle for the three pairs he already mastered.

Since comprehending the Yin Yang Sword Formation, Shang Xia could freely transform the three pairs of qi freely among each other. He finally understood the strength of his Yin Yang Essence Qi.

Of course, the miraculous properties of his Yin Yang Essence Qi didn’t stop there. He might only be able to transform it to three different pairs of qi at the moment, but that wasn’t the limit of his Yin Yang Essence Qi! 

There was no way Shang Xia would stop there. He planned on looking for more techniques to increase the types of qi he could control!

That itself spoke volumes of Shang Xia’s ambitions! In his imagination, the Yin Yang Sword Formation hadn’t reached its limits! He would push it to the extreme!

As the different types of qi gushed through his meridians, Shang Xia started to feel a little bloated. That was all it was. He didn’t feel overwhelmed in the slightest! 

The effects of the Expanding Meridian Powder and Tempering Meridian Powder were astonishing indeed! He could withstand the stress the three different pairs of qi were putting on his meridians! There would be no problems unleashing his martial intent as long as he willed it!

Shang Xia’s cultivation broke through to the grand completion stage of the Martial Extremity Realm at that instant, and it wasn’t a stretch to say that he was one step away from entering the Martial Intent Realm!
