He scanned the surroundings quickly and vanished.
Jiang Fan entered the secluded courtyard.
Looking at the neat and clean arrangement, it was clear that Qian Lan Fairy always lived alone, her life was simple and free from desires.
There were no messy relationships between men and women.
"Pavilion Master, I helped you drive away a rival in love."
"I also investigated Qian Lan Fairyâs background for you."
"When I return, not promoting me to Vice Pavilion Master would be unreasonable."
He murmured to himself, then took out a meditation mat and sat down on the ground to begin cultivation.
Hua Wuying also quietly sat beside him, steadily consolidating her Nascent Soul realm.
Several days passed by.
Jiang Fan had memorized the contents of two new Jade Paper Heavenly Books thoroughly.
His Soul Power at the Three Apertures Nascent Soul Peak finally made a breakthrough to the Four Apertures Nascent Soul Realm.
The power of various Soul Secret Techniques was elevated by a tier as a result.
He was filled with joy.
Now, even when facing a Five Apertures Nascent Soul, he could imprison their soul and use secret techniques to kill them.
But when it came to offensive techniques, the Divine Skills Jiang Fan currently possessed appeared somewhat inadequate.
Killing a Four Apertures Nascent Soul was easy.
Killing a Five Apertures Nascent Soul required some effort and couldnât be done in one strike.
If the battle situation was complicated and there were multiple strong foes present, it would miss the right opportunity.
He pondered.
Jiang Fan took out a Nine-Colored Light Sword sealed within a Jade Box.
It was entirely made of condensed light, extremely dazzling.
But Jiang Fan couldnât forget how this sword light instantly cut a giant lizard beast into countless equal-sized pieces of flesh.
He unlocked the Jade Box.
Fierce Sword Qi scattered haphazardly in all directions.
In his meditation, Hua Wuying whimpered painfully from the Sword Qi, abruptly waking up.
When she glanced at the Nine-Colored Light Sword before her, she was confused for a moment before recognizing it, exclaiming:
"Isnât this Jiang Wuyaâs great predecessorâs Sword Intent?"
"How is it in your hands?"
Oh?
Jiang Fan was surprised: "You recognize it too?"
Hua Wuying looked at the Nine-Colored Light Sword with amazement: "Who doesnât recognize it?"
"This is the Sword Intent of Taicang Stateâs number one Sword Cultivator."
"It has no sword body, only a sliver of sword light, yet it acts as a Divine Weapon, cutting down all enemies of this world."
"Back then, when he wasnât mad, his Sword Intent was invincible, defeating all enemies with Seven Orifice Nascent Soul cultivation."
"He even fought a rampaging mad Nine Aperture Nascent Soul and successfully severed its head."
She then regained her senses.
A look of astonishment appeared: "But how do you have it?"
"This is the Sword Intent that Jiang Wuya yourself comprehended. Even Evil Crow Venerable was outright rejected when he wanted a piece to contemplate."
"Now he has long entered the Nine Aperture Nascent Soul and is insane, even less likely to give Sword Intent to anyone, right?"
Jiang Fan said helplessly: "He gave it to me, then turned on me wanting to kill."
Ah?
Hua Wuying was shocked: "Does that mean he isnât fully insane?"
"Is it possible heâs about to wake up?"
Hiss!
Jiang Fanâs pupils shrunk.
Only now did he realize the problem.
If Jiang Wuya was always insane, he would have sliced Jiang Fan immediately upon seeing him.
How could there have been an initially friendly demeanor and even a precious gift of Sword Intent?
Back then, he wasnât in a mad state.
Reflecting on Yu Peiyuanâs ability to foresee good and bad.
Initially, she did sense great danger at that staircase.
That referred to the mad Jiang Wuya.
But later the sense disappeared.
It indirectly reflected that Jiang Wuyaâs madness halted.
Heâs currently in a half-mad, half-awake state.
Just one key moment short of breaking through the unclarity and awakening from insanity, achieving Divinity Transformation.
Then, Taicang State will have an additional Sword God Venerate!
And Jiang Fan, by chance, obtained a strand of his Sword Intent.
He excitedly looked at the Sword Intent before him: "The power of this Sword Intent shouldnât be weak, right?"
Hua Wuying shook her head, saying: "Too weak, itâs just a bit of Jiang Wuyaâs full body Sword Intent."
"Its power likely isnât very strong, not even comparable to a Nascent Soul Strike."
"But, you can comprehend the Sword Intent within, stepping onto the same path of Sword Cultivation as Jiang Wuya."
Is it only for comprehension?
Thinking back carefully, Jiang Wuya indeed mentioned giving it for comprehension.
"If only I could enhance this strand of Sword Intent."
Jiang Fan envied Jiang Wuyaâs unparalleled prowess of slicing through everything with a single gesture of sword force.
Hua Wuying smiled wryly, saying: "No need to even think."
"Jiang Wuya predecessor managed to cultivate that profound Sword Intent thanks to his Sword Box."
"The Sword Box can foster his Sword Intent, allowing it to continuously grow and solidify."
"Otherwise, he wouldnât have managed to nurture such terrifying Sword Intent."
Sword Box?
Jiang Fan mused thoughtfully.
Under Hua Wuyingâs stupefied gaze, he took out an Ancient Brass Sword Box.
Then placed the Nine-Colored Light Sword into the Sword Box.
This Sword Box was obtained from the Divinity Transformation Relics.
He had researched it for a long time, but to no avail.
Unable to wield attacks, putting the Purple Sword inside yielded no reaction.
Now hearing Hua Wuyingâs words, a suspicion formed in his heart.
Could it be, this Sword Box is for nurturing Sword Intent?
As the Sword Intent was placed inside.
What made Jiang Fanâs heart race was that strands of ancient brass colored Sword Qi emerged from the Sword Box, slowly merging into the Sword Intent.
The slightly dim Nine-Colored Light Sword became visibly solid.
Though far from the oppressive aura of Jiang Wuyaâs Sword Qi, given time for fostering, it would definitely reach that level.
Hua Wuyingâs little hands covered her mouth, eyes wide like copper bells.
"Ruyi Sword Box?"
"Identical to Jiang Wuya predecessorâs Ruyi Sword Box?"
"No, thatâs not right."
"Jiang Wuya predecessorâs Ruyi Sword Box has a corner broken, yours is complete."
"Where did you get this?"
She couldnât help but want to rob Jiang Fan fiercely.
Space-Time Dust, Purple Sword, Void Fishing Rod, Jade Paper Heavenly Book, Ruyi Sword Box, and numerous treasures she was unaware of.
The Sect Leaders of Three Great Divine Sects donât possess a fraction of his wealth!
Even Divinity Transformation Realm might not have as many treasures as he does.
Jiang Fan glared at her: "Do you want to know?"
Realizing she was still collateral, Hua Wuying frantically shook her head like a rattle drum: "I havenât seen anything, donât know anything."
Thatâs more like it.
Jiang Fan closed the Sword Box happily and tucked it back into the Heavenly Thunder Stone.
Once the Sword Intent is nurtured and solidified, he will have an additional lethal weapon!
When Jiang Wuya awakens and finds his gifted Sword Intent became a Divine Weapon, what expression would he have?
At this moment.
Outside the courtyard gate.
Qian Lan Fairy bid farewell to a few friends, her face filled with frustration as she returned.
As expected, Jiang Fan had already slipped away.
Fire Worship Sect mobilized completely, searching for five days, almost digging three feet deep within a thousand miles radius, but failed to find him.
The predecessor wanting to trouble Jiang Fan likely had no chance.
She breathed a sigh of relief for Jiang Fan.
But one piece of news made her grit her teeth in anger.
Rumors had spread throughout the sect claiming she had a love child!
She opened the restriction of the courtyard and walked into the house, with a sullen face she said:
"Which bastard started rumors about me?"
"When did I have a love child?"
"Damn bastard..."
Cursing all the while, she stepped into the house.
But just as one foot stepped inside, she froze like touched by electricity.
Inside the house, Jiang Fan sat on the meditation mat with displeasure:
"Why did you just come back?"
