YM778.TV Chapter 916 Breakthrough
The woman stood nonchalantly as she didn\'t sense any danger from Alex at all. "Attack whenever you want," she said.
Alex nodded. He flared his Sword Intent and his sword glowed alight with Sword Qi. At a certain point, the Sword Qi became so dense that his sword couldn\'t handle it, and instead, the Sword-shaped Qi started appearing all around him.
They moved randomly at first, which had absolutely nothing in common, but then Alex enforced his Intent that he had honed for years now, and suddenly the chaotic Qi came into Order.
He took a deep breath. "Here I come."
And then he attacked.
He slashed his sword casually, sending out a sword slash that followed the normal path. However, led by that slash was the many orderly Sword Qi.
They followed behind the slash and made their way toward the woman.
The woman looked shocked at the strength behind Alex\'s attack. She had expected it to be strong, but this… this was reaching the peak of Saint Condensation realm.
Just a little more and he would be touching onto the Saint Foundation realm.
\'How is such a strong person only True Emperor 7th realm?\' she wondered.
Alex\'s slash flew through the air, nearly 3 meters wide, and the Sword Aura that followed behind it was even wider.
As they approached the woman, the woman also attacked, slashing her sword at the Sword Aura.
Her physical sword clashed with Alex\'s attack, and she tried to destroy the attack. However, she was surprised that despite being stronger, she couldn\'t easily destroy the attack.
The aura kept on going, pushing her even after being stopped as if that was the only way.
They weren\'t here to cut her or kill her, and that surprised the woman.
\'There\'s someone out there learning such unconventional truths about themselves to understand their sword aura?\' she wondered. Most people, including herself, only chose to use their swords to cut everything in their path, destroy things, or kill the person they attacked.
However, Alex\'s sword aura wasn\'t trying to harm her. It would if she let it, but that was not its purpose. Its purpose was to never be stopped.
A small smile appeared on her face. She quickly slashed the rest of the aura away by overwhelming it, but even that took a split second more than she would\'ve expected.
"You surprised me," she said. "Can you tell me how you came to learn the truth about yourself?"
"It was a long time ago," Alex said, not bothering to explain anything anymore.
"I see," she said. "With your current strength, rarely any Saint Condensation realm cultivators should be your enemy, given that they haven\'t learned their own Sword Aura or have some strong techniques."
"Thank you for helping me understand that," Alex said.
The woman smiled. "I\'m curious. Were you the one they talked about?" she asked.
"They?" Alex was confused.
"My seniors," the woman said. "I\'m an elder of the Nether Poison sect, and I heard them speaking about a young man that reached the top of the Dao mountain not long ago with a white cat of his. I heard the young man with a white mask on his face shock them quite a bit. You\'re that person, aren\'t you?"
Alex was surprised she knew him. "Yes, I am indeed that person," he said.
"Aren\'t you supposed to be in the Frozen Heart sect? Why are you not wearing their robes?" she asked.
"Senior isn\'t wearing the Nether Poison sect\'s uniform either," Alex said.
The woman narrowed her eyes and chuckled. "Fair enough," she said. "How do the Frozen Heart sect treat you? Is it not very sad being in the midst of all those girls, but never being able to truly interact with them?"
Alex could see where this was going. "I\'m fine with how I am being treated by the sect at the moment," he said.
"I see. Well, if you ever do feel like you should be treated better, our sect will always have our doors open for you," she said.
"Thank you, senior," Alex said. "Now, if you will excuse me, I will be leaving."
"Sure, go on to do your own thing," she said and turned around to back to her cultivation as well.
The many people looked in shock, not just from what they saw, but from what they heard as well.
The young man in front of them that had just demonstrated his monstrous talent with his Sword Aura had also learned Dao at the peak of the Dao mountain not long ago.
They were certainly going to start talking about this now to everyone they met.
Alex called out to Pearl after walking a few minutes, and together the two of them continued their journey into the Ancient Battlefield.
Alex started making a few plans on what he wanted to do, but there was really just a single plan and a few other things that he would be happy about if he did, but he could skip them if he didn\'t get to.
However, before going on to do that one main thing he wanted to do, he needed to do another small thing that he had been pushing back for a while now.
Alex made pearl look for a place where they could set some resting area. They found a place in a rocky set of land where Alex pulled out a few rocks to make a small cave-like place where he could hide from the sight of others.
Once there, Alex made Pearl stand guard, and then he started cultivating. He was going to break through today.
He had reached True Emperor 7th realm a long time ago, but due to circumstances, he hadn\'t been able to break through at all.
His only time would have been in the month he stayed in Silvermoon city, but he didn\'t feel the time was right at that time.
However now, 3 months later, it did feel right, so within an hour of entering cultivation, he broke through to True Emperor 8th realm.
Alex stayed in cultivation for the next day or so, slowly stabilizing his new cultivation base in this world where nothing moved.
It took him not long before he was able to stand up and leave. However, Alex didn\'t leave.
He instead started training his Sword Aura. Now that he was away from any Intent that he had to constantly fight again, his Sword Aura appeared far quicker than he was used to while he was learning it.
It was also strong, maybe even a little stronger than when he used it against that woman, but not by much.
He experimented with his Sword Aura a bit, learning just how far he could send it without losing much of its destructiveness, how long he could hold it without attacking, how many Sword Aura attacks he could send out before his mind started feeling fatigued, etc.
He trained for a day or two, while Pearl stood to watch.
Finally, after 2 days he stopped as he had trained the same thing multiple times and came to a conclusion.
His sword skills were now his strongest asset, followed by his Qi attacks, his physical body, and finally his mental attacks.
