--- Chapter 78 ---

Black-Corner Region experienced another wave of a surprise recently.

All the factions within this chaotic land suddenly agreed with each other to renew the Black Ranking with a small tournament, which determined things in the future. The winner shall acquire 30% of the land and several rare mines.

However, people saw this tournament as more than that.

The reward sure is mouth-watering, and no one wouldn't deny that, but people are more curious about the actual cause of this sudden tournament.

People speculated about many things.

Yet the most popular guess is related to the new leader of Beast Taming Gate, Bai Ya.

The appearance of this man is like a storm approaching and sweeping over the Black Corner Region violently.

He defeated Beast Taming Gate's former leader and other factions' leaders, adding them to his loser counts.

Who wouldn't be shocked by such an achievement?

On the Dou Qi Continent, a talent like Bai Ya is hard to find and usually dies young. Regardless, this bizarre man pushed through and climbed through Black Ranking as if it was nothing for him.

A spark has grown into a blazing flame in the Black Corner Region.

Meanwhile, the person in question was enjoying the noon and drinking a fruit smoothie.

Baek Ain sat in Lan Rou's backyard and released a sigh of relief because the condensation of the 5-Star Dou Emperor Realm went well. And He might even reach 6-Star Dou Emperor soon.

However, Baek Ain liked to take things slowly.

Going fast does not always give the best result.

And to be fair, Baek Ain only took three days of rest as his skill would become rusty if he kept lazing around like this.

Usually, Baek Ain didn't take any rest out of anxiety, but everything has been going well in the last ten days.

After finishing the smoothie, Baek Ain grabbed Severed Light from his inventory and walked to the quiet part of the backyard. He faced a willow tree and started swinging his blade gently.

Baek Ain closed his eyes and solely focused on refining his swinging technique, making it smoother with each second. Even though he has upgraded Blade Intent(F) to Blade Intent(A) with an upgrade stone, he still feels it lacks something.

It's cliche, but Baek Ain believed to become one with his blade, he needed to find a meaning behind it.

It's not as simple as using powerful dou techniques.

Powerful dou techniques are easy to become imperfect without a firm foundation.

[Sixth Sense]

[Parallel Thinking]

Baek Ain immersed himself in the Severed Light.

What's the intent?

It was the belief of someone to reach a near-perfection stage.

A weapon made with intent. To slaughter and protect.

Slaughter enemy.

And protect loved ones.

After living in this world for almost a year, Baek Ain changed his common sense to match the cultivation world's standard. Of course, he doesn't become a mindless cultivator with high moral ground and arrogance.

Then, what's the blade?

...

...

Two days later.

Lan Rou, Yi Xian, and Yafei watched Baek Ain swinging his blade tirelessly under a bright sun. He seemed to enter a state of enlightenment and ignored everything around him.

Even when Yi Xian and Yafei tried to call Baek AIn, Lan Rou quickly closed their mouths so they didn't disturb him. It is a one-in-a-million chance for Dou Practitioner to gain such a state.

"Something is changing," Yafei commented with a frown.

"But I don't know what it is."

"For a second... Ain released a faint sharp aura from his body."

"Really? I couldn't feel anything." Yi Xian scowled solemnly.

"Nice." She stared at Baek Ain's sweaty back and saw his back muscle with great interest, leaving Lan Rou speechless. Yafei shook her head because Yi Xian was the most laid-back person she ever met.

Even though Yi Xian might appear haughty near Baek Ain, that's just how she expresses her feelings for him. For anyone else besides her fellow sister soon-to-wives, she's as cold as an ice statue.

Lan Rou sighed and added, "You two are playing too much with your cultivation."

"That's why you could only sense the surface of Baek Ain's cultivation."

"We are not as maniac as you two in cultivation..." Yafei returned casually.

"Yes. As simple as that." Yi Xian nodded in agreement.

"..." Lan Rou.

"Anyway, since you're lacking in your Cultivation Sense. The faintness of Baek Ain's blade way is hard to grasp."

"Ever since training under me, Baek Ain's choice of weapon has always been a blade. He picked the weapon and started running around the field, training his dou techniques alongside it."

"As if it was his lifeline."

"It's been almost a year. All those experiences accumulated and concentrated into what Baek Ain is now."

"And what is this exactly?" Yafei pondered while squinting her eyes.

Lan Rou closed her eyes and answered, "Intent."

"Intent?"

Nodding her head, Lan Rou opened her eyes and added, "A state where one's body, soul, and spirit become one with something."

"As for Ain's case, it's Blade Intent."

"Soon, Ain will become a master capable of slashing through a mountain, sea, and sky with a gentle wrist flick. You two should train more if you don't want to let Ain down."

"We know." Yafei and Yi Xian rolled their eyes. They also felt anxiously bitter, knowing Baek Ain would become too strong and forget about them in the future.

"Still, you know a lot of things, huh? Senior Sister Rou~!" Yi Xian teased Lan Rou while hugging her right arm. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the ɴ0velFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Lan Rou bashfully blushed and answered, "I learned one or two things after becoming Miteer Family's shadow guard."

"Maybe you should try it once, Yi Xian."

"No, thanks." Yi Xian immediately refused.

"Hmm?"

They felt intense pressure from the backyard and saw Baek Ain open his hazel-gold eyes. He looks incomparably handsome for some reason, having this sharpness around him.

[Ding! Blade Intent(A) has experienced a great change]

[Blade Intent(A) >>> Blade Intent(S)]

[You have attained a few perks]

["Spirit Blade."]

["Mind Blade."]

[And "I'm the Bone of my Blade."]

Cough! Cough!

Baek Ain choked on air when hearing the last perk and wondered if this was a joke.

[It's not a joke] Alicia commented lightly.

[To achieve Blade Intent(S), you have to become one with your blade through three steps]

[Body, Spirit, and Soul]

[Don't be confused by Spirit and Soul because they are inherently different]

[Soul is innate, someone one should possess from the beginning of creation]

[Meanwhile, Spirit is Will, something one should obtain and sharpen as they gain more experience]

[Congratulations, host. You're one step closer to becoming "Blade God."]

"Blade God..." Baek Ain mumbled, liking the title.

It's simple but overpowering at the same time.

Baek Ain calmed himself and stared at Severed Light, feeling the blade's connection with him. He smiled because there was a faint invisible aura around Severed Light's edge, increasing the sharpness by miles away compared to before.

Even a Dou Ancestor or maybe Dou Venerate will have a tough time fending Baek Ain's blade intent.

Well, that'd be for the tournament.

Baek Ain encased Severed Light into its sheath and gently placed it on his belt, not wanting to let it inside the inventory anymore.

"Hi, there." Baek Ain turned around and noticed his lovers' astonished looks. "Are you three ready for the party?"
