After Xiao Tian's explanation, Chen Xin suddenly understood and no longer had such a strong desire for Tang San's Hidden Weapons. He just said, "Then, in your opinion, should our Sect acquire the Hidden Weapons made by Tang San?"
Xiao Tian said without hesitation, "Buy! But buy selectively. If the Godly Zhuge Crossbow can truly injure a Spirit Ancestor, then everyone must have one. As for the others, they are basically not very useful, so buy them as needed. The only thing to pay attention to here is the price!"
"Xiao Tian, you don't need to worry about that. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is wealthy. Even if the Hidden Weapons are expensive, we can afford them. What I care about now is whether Tang San's Hidden Weapons are truly useful to our Sect!"
Chen Xin waved his hand and said.
Xiao Tian: ...
Is this what it means to be rich?
Even if you're rich, you can't spend money like this, can you?
"Grandpa Sword, you misunderstood me. My point is, you can buy a set and bring it back to the Sect. Then, under the pretense of needing the Sect Master's approval, you can take the opportunity to find some high-level blacksmiths to examine the material of these Hidden Weapons and appraise them, to avoid Tang San overcharging!
This isn't about not lacking money; every penny must be spent wisely. After all, to be honest, Hidden Weapons are consumables. The subsequent crossbow arrows and maintenance of the Hidden Weapons will also require considerable financial resources."
After Xiao Tian's earnest persuasion, Chen Xin also nodded, believing that Xiao Tian's considerations were reasonable.
However, only Tang San knows how to make Hidden Weapons, right?
Then how can he supply the entire Sect?
However, what happens next will have to wait until Tang San finishes making the Godly Zhuge Crossbow. These days, he can stay here and discuss Sword Intent with Xiao Tian.
Chen Xin said, "Xiao Tian, may I ask when you began to comprehend Sword Intent?"
Xiao Tian said, "Soon after I awakened my Spirit, I suppose. Before awakening my Spirit, I was always particularly fond of swords. Since I can remember, I've spent every day with a sword."
Chen Xin was silent.
Chen Xin was shocked.
Chen Xin felt ashamed.
"Haha, Xiao Tian, I didn't expect your Sword Intent talent to be so astonishing. How about we discuss Sword Intent today? What do you think Sword Intent is?" Chen Xin asked with a hint of a test, wanting to see Xiao Tian's understanding of Sword Intent.
Xiao Tian pondered for a moment before saying, "Sword Intent refers to the realm displayed by a sword cultivator after reaching a certain level of comprehension and cultivation of the sword. Sword Intent can be understood as the soul, temperament, and will of the sword; it is a deep fusion and resonance between the sword cultivator and the sword!
And Sword Intent can be expressed through sword momentum, sword qi, sword heart, or even sword domain. For example, the Evil Exorcising Swordplay I initially demonstrated did not carry Sword Intent. The sword momentum and swordplay displayed without Sword Intent were not just a little bit weaker compared to those with Sword Intent."
Chen Xin sat quietly cross-legged opposite Xiao Tian, listening very attentively to Xiao Tian's discourse. Some of what he said resonated deeply even with him.
However, while Xiao Tian's Sword Intent was powerful, in his opinion, it could be even stronger!
"Xiao Tian, your Sword Intent is very strong, but it's missing one thing," Chen Xin said very seriously.
"What?" Xiao Tian didn't react for a moment.
"Attribute!"
"For example, my Sword Intent is called Seven Kill Sword Intent. It carries a strong killing aura, which can easily intimidate opponents. Your Sword Intent, although sharp and giving a powerful feeling, lacks the necessary elemental power. If you could add a certain attribute to your Sword Intent, perhaps it could be even stronger!"
Boom!
Xiao Tian felt enlightened after Chen Xin's words!
He knew what to do.
"Grandpa Sword, I understand!"
Xiao Tian nodded slightly to Chen Xin and eagerly went outside the door.
Sword Fifteen appeared in his right hand. Xiao Tian closed his eyes, and Sword Intent slowly covered his entire body. As time passed, another kind of Sword Intent seemed to emerge.
And Xiao Tian's action once again made Tang San and the others feel it.
"Grandpa Sword, what is Xiao Tian doing?"
Ning Rongrong couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
Chen Xin said with a serious expression, "Don't speak. Xiao Tian seems to have gained new insights while discussing Sword Intent with me just now."
"Zhuqing, how about we practice?"
Xiao Tian smiled faintly at Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing was slightly startled but still nodded expressionlessly. She had long wanted to spar with Xiao Tian.
"I won't hold back!"
Hell Possession!
Instantly, Zhu Zhuqing's Spirit possessed her, and she took a stance, running rapidly around Xiao Tian at an extremely fast speed, trying to find his weakness.
Meanwhile, Xiao Tian held Sword Fifteen, and his originally transparent Sword Intent gradually turned bluish-black!
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing had already circled behind Xiao Tian, seizing the opportunity to activate her Spirit Ability.
First Spirit Ability, Hell Rush Stab!
Under the amplification of her First Spirit Ability, Zhu Zhuqing's speed became incredibly fast, attacking Xiao Tian in a straight line, moving so quickly that her figure was impossible to catch.
However, Xiao Tian simply dodged to the side with ease, using Fifteen to block Zhu Zhuqing's sharp claws. Their eyes met.
Looking into Xiao Tian's deep eyes, Zhu Zhuqing's heart inexplicably skipped a beat, and she immediately flashed backward.
Xiao Tian's lips curved slightly. Too late!
Slowness Sword Intent!
At this moment, the Sword Intent on Xiao Tian's body instantly materialized, and a bluish-black sword qi slashed towards Zhu Zhuqing!
Zhu Zhuqing's pupils slightly contracted. She adjusted her body and dodged to the side, but her right arm was still unfortunately cut by the sword qi.
Uh...
Zhu Zhuqing bit her lip in pain. Just as she was about to speed up again and launch a counterattack, she suddenly found that her speed had slowed down!
This... what's going on!
"You lost, little girl."
Chen Xin, suppressing the shock in his heart, said faintly to Zhu Zhuqing, "Xiao Tian's sword qi contains a slowing effect. You have now lost the advantage an agility-attack system Spirit Master should have."
That was secondary; Xiao Tian clearly held back with that sword qi just now. Otherwise, with his current strength, no matter how fast Zhu Zhuqing was, it would have been impossible for her to avoid that sword qi attack!
Zhu Zhuqing was also slightly startled. Her speed just now seemed to have decreased by ten percent. Was this the new ability Xiao Tian had developed?
"I surrender."
Zhu Zhuqing said faintly.
"Xiao Tian, I didn't expect that after just a casual remark from me, you immediately added an attribute to your Sword Intent. What are its specific effects?"
As soon as Chen Xin said this, everyone present focused their gaze on Xiao Tian.
"Ding, congratulations to the host for defeating Speed God Zhu Zhuqing. Although Zhu Zhuqing went easy on the host, this system is still extremely shocked!"
