'I don't know how to create a sword art that merges lightning energy and sword essence. For current me, it is an impossible task.'

Tyler knew for the fact that creating sword art or elemental art wasn't a child's trick.

Not to mention, he was trying to create something even more outrageous. But, he also knew that he had a talent for both.

His Sword Affinity allowed him to get better at swordsmanship with his practice.

And, his Holy Lightning Body allowed him to better utilize his lightning energy.

With the experience of Swordsmanship and Lightning Dao, he was confident that he could find a way. And, to find a way, he needed to fight.

Fight against two statues. Fight for survival.

His lightning energy surged throughout his body. It was the first time he was going to use this elemental art.

He only had this confidence because he managed to reach the Third Level of the Tyrant Lightning Body Technique.

With the lightning armor around his body, he impelled lightning around his foot. The next moment, his figure changed into a lightning bolt as he dashed forward.

[Lightning Overdrive]

Impulsed Lightning meant using the lightning like a crazy person. He had to overload his feet with lightning energy to use this technique. And, he did that.

His body dashed in front of the statue before it could even react. He charged his right arm with the lightning energy and struck forward.

[Thunder Drum]

Bang! Bang!

"Ouch! Master, it hurts."

When he used that strike, the sapling screamed in pain. But he managed to destroy a part of the statue's leg.

Tyler noticed the scream, and he flinched his arm back.

'Now that I think about it, whenever I use my fist, I can produce more strength. But, whenever I use my sword, I make lethal attacks, but they aren't destructive.'

The statue raised its hand and slammed it toward him. But his body instantly turned into a lightning bolt and disappeared.

Lightning Overdrive allowed him to move fast like lightning almost the entire time, which means it wasn't a one-time use elemental art.

And that's what made this elemental art so unique.

As soon as he dodged the attack, his mind instantly concentrated on the thoughts that he had before.

'If I want to merge the Sword Essence and Lightning Energy, I need to understand a core method to merge them. But what could be the core of them?'

'Sword seems fast and lethal. But wait, it is also powerful. If I can increase the input of spiritual energy, the power of the sword strike will increase.'

'That means if there is a power attribute to the sword essence. So, what if I replace that power attribute with lightning?'

'Wait a minute..... I remembered something about the sword attributes. Oh yes, I had included another Sword attribute into Nine Heavens Piercing Dragon Sword.'

'Although I made it for some different reasons, I was able to use the Sword Essence to harden my rod.'

'But because I wouldn't have a lot of Sword Essence, I used my lightning energy as an alternative.'

'Lightning Energy was able to give me power and speed, which was much better in sex.'

'Of course, it wouldn't make my rod hardened, but it did give me enough power and speed.'

'So, if I follow the similar patterns that I used in Nine Heavens Piercing Dragon Sword, I might be able to merge Lightning Energy with Sword Essence.'

Tyler's eyes widened when this thought came to his mind.

Because when he created Nine Heavens Piercing Dragon Sword, he did it to increase the size of his rod.

For that, he used the attribute Hard. In a sense, he didn't merge the Lightning Energy and Sword Essence.

But, he did use the Sword Essence and Lightning Energy for the same purpose.

So, if he just figured out how to merge the three attributes, he could create a new sword art.

And, he already had Soft Attribute mixed into his swordsmanship.

Power- It was one of the main attributes of the sword. It included raw strength that could be seen as brute force.

Whenever a sword swung, it released a certain amount of power, which caused the impact.

Speed- It was one of the main attributes of the sword. It could be seen as raw movement speed from the swing to the standstill of the sword.

This attribute had a direct relationship with Power, which meant that increasing speed increases power.

Yang- It was one of the main attributes of the sword. The hardened part of the sword could shatter the hammer and remain intact.

This attribute, combined with the Power attribute, increased the overall damage. This attribute was also known as Hardness.

Yin- It was one of the main attributes of the sword. The swiftness and agility of the sword.

This attribute, combined with Speed, increased the precision and evasion of sword art. This attribute is also known as Soft.

Sword Will- It was one of the main attributes of the sword.

The Sword Will represented the swordsman's determination and willingness to hold the sword in his hand and never abandon it.

These were the five sword attributes that he studied before.

These five attributes of the sword contain twenty percent of sword essence.

Whenever Sword Essence is used, these attributes are equally used.

But, for the sake of certain sword art, one of the attributes was highly used instead of the other.

Up until now, he had been using Speed and Yin most of the time.

Only Violent Wind Strike uses Power together with the Yin attribute. Increasing the power of one attribute wouldn't be a problem.

The problem would be merging the similar attributes of the lightning with the sword essence.

Lightning had three attributes: Power, Speed, and Destructiveness.

If he could merge Lightning Energy with Sword Essence, he could increase the percentage above a hundred percent and make every strike more powerful.

Tyler took a deep breath as the sword reappeared in his right hand.

The lightning energy surged, and sword essence came together, and he concentrated his mind on one thing.
