Chapter 495 Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter Sword Intent

After the surprise, Ding Hao fully activated his Divine Sense to perceive the “Spring Sword Intent”.

Since ancient times, Sword Intent could only be sensed and it was beyond description. Whether one could grasp Sword Intent or not depended on personal opportunities and the flash of insight. There were countless experts at the realm of Martial Royal or Martial Emperor who couldn’t grasp Sword Intent in their entire lifetimes. There were also ordinary martial artists below the Primordial Grandmaster who could understand its meaning by chance.

For many people, it would be a rare opportunity for them to sense such a Sword Intent at such a close distance.

Ding Hao was the “Saintly Being of Saber and Sword,” and he also practiced a peerless cultivation method like the “Invincible Fighting Method.” He had a natural understanding of saber techniques, sword techniques, Saber Intent and Sword Intent. He also had a strong intuition of martial arts. All this along with the guidance of the memories from the Sword Master and Saber Master, he obtained Saber and Sword intents. At this time, in the face of the constantly changing “Spring Sword Intent,” he gradually captured the real meaning behind it.

In front of him, there were the constant changes of endless forest and swords.

The gist of truth flowed like air, seeping into Ding Hao’s body bit by bit, integrating itself with Ding Hao’s soul. The profound meaning gradually became clear in Ding Hao’s heart!

Ding Hao slowly closed his eyes and no longer watched the superficial scenery change.

He began to capture the Sword Intent flowing in the void with concentrated attention.

He didn’t know how long it took. When Ding Hao opened his eyes again, the endless forest of swords in front of him had disappeared.

He returned to the endless dark void. There was no distinction between any direction, nor was there any difference between sky and earth. He could only see the endless dark void and the twinkling starlight. There was no such conception as time and space there. In the universe, the wilderness, heaven and earth, he was alone.

Ding Hao seemed to have been used to such changes.

He lowered his head slightly and extended his hands, palms facing upward.

With a thought, small and delicate silver swords began to grow slowly out of each of his left and right palms.

The small swords slowly rotated with strange ripples. When the small swords were complete, they suddenly trembled slightly, and then from the tip of the sword to the hilt, they were dyed green and turned into grass!

The thriving vitality was splashed on the grass.

“Spring Sword Intent!”

Ding Hao had mastered the “Spring Sword Intent.”

Like regurgitation-feeding, the vitality from the grass seeped into Ding Hao’s skin bit by bit along his hands and poured into the Qi channels. It silently and gradually healed the severe wounds inflicted by Qi like a heavy spring rain moistening things. In just a few seconds, most of Ding Hao’s injury had recovered.

“In the vast world, the mystery of Martial Arts is constantly changing, and humans are always unable to sense all its mystery. I originally thought that I had mastered Sword Intent. Now it seems that I am really like a frog that watches the sky from the bottom of the well. The way of Sword Intent not only increases attacks, but can also turn into all kinds of things in the world. Since there’s a ‘Spring Sword Intent’, there should also be ‘Summer Sword Intent’, ‘Autumn Sword Intent’ and ‘Winter Sword Intent’ in the world. Even the 24 Solar Terms can turn into Sword Intent…”

Ding Hao understood a little.

Then the Sense.

With the Sense, one’s mind would be able to change into a variety of things.

Therefore, Sword Intent could also change.

Saber Intent should be the same.

At this moment, Ding Hao felt that a door in front of him was opening slowly; one that he had never noticed. A world full of infinite possibilities was slowly opening up to him!

Just as Ding Hao wanted to continue figuring out the “Spring Sword Intent,” there were changes in the starry sky.

In the distance, another star burst out with brilliant light, as if responding to Ding Hao’s perception. Then in the blink of an eye, it came to Ding Hao. Ding Hao’s sight was once again blocked by a massive sphere of light. He gradually lost his vision, no longer able to recognize anything.

When Ding Hao regained his eyesight, there was a brand new world in front of him.

The sun was scorching, the trees were green, the shades were cool and the air was heated. A summer day.

A thought flashed through Ding Hao’s mind. When he fixed his eyes on it, everything began to change.

The green branches, the red sun in the sky, the leaves in the distance, and the dark green grass on the ground were all made up of swords of different sizes, colors and shapes. They emitted strange fluctuations, taking away the essence of heaven and earth, concealing themselves from people. All of this formed such a strange environment!

“This must be the ‘Summer Sword Intent’!” Ding Hao thought.

This time Ding Hao did not need to be reminded by the Sword Master. He immediately devoted himself to running his Divine Senses at the realm of “A World inside the Body” and the intuition of Martial Arts to capture the essence between heaven and earth. He closed his eyes and completely entered a state of meditation.

After the first experience of comprehending the “Spring Sword Intent,” Ding Hao soon caught its essence.

After a long time.

He returned to the cold and dark space when Ding Hao opened his eyes again.

He was still sitting cross-legged in the void, floating up and down as if riding the tide.

With a thought in mind, he spread out his palm.

This time, a tender grass grew out of his palm at a speed visible to the naked eye. It gradually grew into a lush and green tree, and its luxuriant branches and leaves were swaying gently in the wind. For a while, Ding Hao’s palm had experienced changes from spring to summer!

A strong warmth poured into Ding Hao’s body through Ding Hao’s palm and continued to heal the injuries in the Qi channel. Wherever it went, a wave of warmth would relieve the pain.

Ding Hao looked up and focused his sight at the void in the distance again.

As if sensing something, another star in the distance shone brightly and flew toward Ding Hao like lightning. In the blink of an eye, it was right in front of Ding Hao…

After a long time.

Ding Hao opened his eyes again, and slowly spread out his palm. The small sword was still rotating, and then a blade of grass grew, which then turned into a long grass, which grew all the way until it became a lush towering tree. It continued to blossom fast. Then it bore red fruits on the branches. The dense autumn atmosphere filled the air, as if was time for harvest…

Spring, summer and autumn!

Ding Hao had mastered three kinds of Sword Intent.

Although he had only mastered them at a basic level, not yet knowing how to apply them to actual combat, it was already a great progress. Ding Hao knew very well that it was absolutely beneficial for him. If he could completely integrate those four Sword Intents of spring, summer, autumn, and winter together…

With a thought in mind, there was another star in the distance. As if responding to Ding Hao’s summons, it burst into endless brilliance and turned into a meteor. In a flash, it approached Ding Hao…

“Senior Brother Ding hasn’t finished his closed-door training yet?”

Zhang Fan looked up at the stairs leading to the third floor of the Sword Tower, and his face was full of anxiety.

Three days had passed, and the wounds on his body had completely healed. Not even a single scar was left. His black and strong muscles bulged; his strength had also improved a little. His body seemed to have become a little stronger, which made him look more imposing.

Since Ding Hao went to the third floor, he had been in seclusion without any food.

During this time, Li Yiruo tried to send some food several times, but when she walked to the stairs of the third floor, she was blocked by an invisible air wall and could not move an inch forward. She was afraid that it would affect Ding Hao’s cultivation if she broke in. So she could only wait on the second floor anxiously.

“‘The Three Emperors of Central Province have been here dozens of times, and did has Song Que. He left a message that in the afternoon, all the top experts who had map pieces were going to discuss the exploration of the mysterious ruins in the market of the First Level Heaven. If brother Ding still doesn’t finish his closed-door meditation, I’m afraid that he’ll miss this gathering…”

Shen Buhui said worriedly.

At this moment—

“Haha, three days gone? I thought it was only several hours!” said Ding Hao with a hearty laughter, full of energy. Finally, he slowly walked down the stairs.

“Brother Hao…”

“Senior Brother Ding, have you recovered from your injury?”

“Brother Ding… That’s great. It seems that we don’t have to worry about it!”

Li Yiruo and the other two were overjoyed.

The strength of these three people had also increased a lot in the past few days. At a glance, they could see that Ding Hao’s injuries had been completely recovered, and his aura was refreshed. Not only that, even his strength had obviously increased. When he walked down the stairs step by step, an invisible aura spread out around him. Sometimes it was full of vitality, sometimes it was as hot as summer, sometimes it was cool as autumn, sometimes it was cold as late winter. It seemed that as time passed by, the four seasons were constantly manifested on Ding Hao’s body.

“Is there anything to eat? Give me something, I’m a little hungry…” Ding Hao rubbed his stomach.

In fact, the warriors above the Congenital Grandmaster realm had a strong vitality. Even if they didn’t eat or drink for ten days and nights, it didn’t matter. Ding Hao was only fond of good food. Eating every day was a habit which satisfied the desire of taste from both mouth and tongue. It had become Ding Hao’s biggest hobby aside from practicing martial arts.

Li Yiruo smiled and took out a meal box, in which there were all kinds of delicious dishes.

“How is Senior Sister Ximen?” Ding Hao asked while eating.

“The injuries in Instructor Qianxue’s body have basically been cured and all toxins have been eliminated. She is now revitalized, completely recovering her previous physical state, even a little stronger than before. But she is still in coma…” Li Yiruo said in detail. She checked Ximen Qianxue’s condition every day and knew her well. She continued, “By the way, brother Buhui found half a leaf of the ‘Yaoyao True Tree’ in the market a few days ago. I’m wondering whether it can be used as material for elixirs…”

As she spoke, she handed over a glittering and translucent green leaf, which was as shiny as jade.

That leaf had very clear vein with parallel lines on both sides. There was a dark black vein at the end. The thick leaf flesh which looked like a baby’s palm contained all its essence. However, the front part was broken. The broken edge seemed to be a little withered. It was obvious that it had lost a lot of essence!

Ding Hao observed carefully and put it away. He turned to Shen Buhui and said with a smile, “Thank you for your kindness, Brother Shen.”

Shen Buhui said with a smile, “Not a big deal, it was a piece of cake. By the way, Brother Ding, I’ve made some progress about that thing that you asked me to inquire about, on regards to other disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect and other people in Snow Province…”

“Oh?” Ding Hao’s eyes lit up and he said, “Come and tell me.”
