70 -69: Slaughter Combat Essence_1

After an unknown amount of time, the shattered fragments of Xiao Chen’s soul reassembled in the darkness, reforming his intact soul.

Not only that, but his senses gradually returned to awareness.

His soul simultaneously returned to his body, but he showed no sign of consciousness yet.

While the burly figure had vanished without a trace in his mind, the residual killing intent did not dissipate with it.

Feeling the very faint will that lingered in his mind, Xiao Chen felt that his senses had been magnified countless times, becoming extremely subtle.

Those previously unfathomable atmospheres were flashing briefly in his mind.

Xiao Chen did not have a body in the world inside his mind.

However, in the real world, he was still sitting motionless on the bed.

Even his breathing and heartbeat had slowed down, leaving his entire body almost still.

In this mysterious atmosphere, Xiao Chen seized the valuable opportunity to fathom the Great Han’s residual killing intent, continually simulating the Great Han’s devastating blow, and verifying it with his comprehension.

Soon, catalyzed by this mystery, a long spear emerged in Xiao Chen’s mind.

It emanated threatening intent from its shaft.

Thrust!

Without making a sound, the attack appeared ordinary on the surface.

But in Xiao Chen’s perception, it rippled out like waves on water, emanating outwards from the tip of the long spear.

He understood that without the guidance of the burly predecessor’s will, he would not have been able to reach this level where he could shake space using just his will.

Regardless of the form, all paths of martial arts converge to the same destination when practiced to the extreme.

Just like the burly man whose weapon is a huge White Bone Stick which is merely a vessel for his comprehension of combat essence, Xiao Chen’s weapon is the Long Spear.

The spear strike moments ago had brought him insight into the existence of combat essence.

Similarly, it felt as though an insurmountable barrier stood between him and the understanding of combat essence, yet it seemed to be only a thin paper away, requiring only a poke to breach.

At that moment, Xiao Chen’s floating mind suddenly wakened and his eyes shot open.

Two beams of piercing light burst out, smashing and reducing a tea set several feet away to dust that disappeared into the air.

Once awakened, Xiao Chen grabbed the Dark Blood War Spear by the bed.

The sound of patrol soldiers outside the Qing Song Villa, the occasional noise in Duanmu City disappeared from his senses.

Once again, an obsidian long spear appeared in his mind as though capable of absorbing everything between heaven and earth.

Xiao Chen sat on the bed, facing the room’s door and held the War Spear leveled on his lap.

Calm and collected, he savored the residual mysteries left behind in his head.

The space seemed to freeze at that moment, the air becoming viscous.

The minuscule dust particles were compressed together, and a vibe of slaughter was emanated from Xiao Chen.

As the unknown burly man had grasped the intent of slaughter, Xiao Chen’s vibes were filled with murderous intent.

This invisible intent attached itself to the Long Spear.

As the particles compressed to their limits in Xiao Chen’s perception, his eyes suddenly opened, and two streaks of frigid light shot out again.

Kill!

With no combat qi, an intense killing intent erupted from the War Spear, shooting straight into the void ahead.

The compressed dust particles were swept away in an instant.

A visible vacuum air trail advanced forward.

When the vacuum channel stopped less than ten yards from the door, the sharp combat essence disappeared like a mirage.

The sliver of killing intent left by the burly man had also disappeared.

“Alas, this strand of killing intent isn’t something I grasped myself.

Only by truly understanding my own fighting will, just like that burly predecessor, can I embody supreme killing intent within my every move and truly have it at my fingertips,” he told himself.

With a soft sigh, Xiao Chen let go of the Dark Blood War Spear he had been holding.

He kept savoring the essence of the spear strike he had executed.

He realized he had struck gold this time.

He had not expected that the Non-returning Grass spirit medicine truly contained supreme martial arts essence of a great master.

The burly man’s killing intent was merely a trigger for Xiao Chen.

It was too elusive; a thousand people could have a thousand interpretations.

The same intent would manifest differently in different warriors.

Xiao Chen, however, having been guided by the burly man, took what he inherited and innovated upon.

He drew from the burly man’s killing intent and sought to understand his own combat essence.

Just as there are no two identical individuals in the world, everyone’s will is unique; blindly following others’ paths will only lead one to a dead end.

“If I can get another Non-returning Grass spirit medicine, I should be able to grasp killing intent.” Xiao Chen thought.

He hadn’t expected that the Non-Returning Grass contained the immense combat essence of their predecessors.

This revelation made him yearn to have even more of this spirit medicine.

Having snapped out of his reverie after that brief moment, Xiao Chen scoffed at his greed.

Such treasures could only be stumbled upon, not sought.

Simply getting one was a tremendous stroke of luck; wavering intentions could be disastrous for a warrior.

The combat essence contained in this Non-returning Grass was killing intent.

Given the shortcut, not learning killing intent would be a waste.

Even if he managed to get another Non-returning Grass, who could guarantee that it retained the same killing intent?

After all, there are not just a killing combat essence.

There are over ten types of combat essence equivalent to it, such as Immortal Intent, Destruction Intent, Darkness Intent, and so on.

And there’s an even greater variety of minor combat essences such as Cloud’s Intent, Dirt’s Intent, etc.

Although Xiao Chen had not immediately fathomed his own combat essence after refining the spirit medicine, the seeds of the combat essence were already planted deeply within his soul.

All it needed was continued fathoming, and understanding his combat essence would be inevitable.

Xiao Chen had now detected the existence of killing intent, but such essence was too profound, like looking at flowers through fog, flickering in and out of existence.

His current perception was a little nebulous, merely grasping the basics of spear intent.

He was only halfway to true combat essence, and there was still a significant difference.

Unaware, daylight broke. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Xiao Chen sat on the bed, pondering through the night.

The changing shifts of the guard outside the Villa were audible.

Hu!

A breath, sharp as an arrow, came out of his mouth as Xiao Chen slowly stood up.

His body tremored slightly, and the subtle air of slaughter was instantly retracted into his body, disappearing without a trace.
