Chapter 2279: Chapter 2278: Comprehending Water Sword Intent

Buddha and Demon Dharma Body, holding the Yangxin Sword, engaged in a fierce battle with the Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation.

For Lin Dong, although there was consumption in this process, it wasn’t as much as Aoba Nameless.

Lin Dong could actually compete with Lin Sumei, that Second Heavenly Realm Martial Artist, in terms of consumption.

His Inner Qi was not less than that of Aoba Nameless!

Furthermore, Aoba Nameless had already sacrificed half of his Spirit and Soul, which was already a great consumption.

Moreover, this Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation wasn’t his own Dharma Body, so the consumption was even greater.

As the battle between the two continued, Aoba Nameless’s face grew increasingly pale.

“Just a Tenth Stage Grandmaster’s Dharma Body can actually be evenly matched with the Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation. Is Lin Dong really going to become a millennial mythological figure?”

The so-called mythical figures of the millennial era are basically invincible in their time!

Because even Heavenly Realm Martial Artists who can live over a thousand years are very rare.

And in the Age of Dharma End, becoming such a figure is even more difficult. Because the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi from a thousand years ago cannot be compared to today’s.

But seeing Lin Dong at the moment, Aoba Nameless felt he could achieve it.

“The Second Layer of Water Sword Intent!” The Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation continuously used the ‘Sword Intent of Water’, entangling with Lin Dong.

Lin Dong’s Buddha and Demon Dharma Body could actually suppress this Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation; he just needed to use the Sword of Sword Intent Fusion.

But he didn’t do that, because he still wanted to learn by observing.

While the Buddha and Demon Dharma Body fought the Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation, his true self was aside, comprehending the ‘Sword Intent of Water’.

The opportunity to comprehend sword intent is rare.

How could Lin Dong miss such an opportunity?

“The Sword Intent of Water encompasses the Water Path.”

“And the Water Path is profound and formless. It embraces all things and nourishes life.”

“It adapts to nature, gentle yet powerful, unassertive yet victorious.”

Regarding the comprehension of the Great Path of Water, Lin Dong already had a foundational understanding while pursuing the ‘Sword Domain’ level.

The Sword Domain is a Sword Dao Realm above the ‘Unification of Human and Sword’. Previously, Lin Sumei comprehended it for over two hundred years before achieving great accomplishment.

At that time, the ‘Sword Domain’ he unleashed was incredibly challenging for Lin Dong.

Lin Dong hasn’t completely comprehended it yet, but he’s not in a rush.

Because everyone’s understanding of the ‘Sword Domain’ is different. Some comprehend the Sword Domain as the power of nature, like elements such as wind, fire, and thunder, and thus, their Sword Domain primarily utilizes these natural forces.

Others, like Lin Sumei, in addition to understanding a certain amount of natural force, also comprehend the power of Vast Righteous Qi. As such, their Sword Domain can use the natural forces alongside the vast righteous qi of the human world.

The Sword Domain comprehended in this way naturally possesses a stronger Sword Dao power than merely understanding natural forces.

But Lin Dong’s ambition is not just this. He attempts to comprehend various natural forces and try to understand the Vast Righteous Power and various other forces.

He hopes his Sword Domain in the future will be like Wuji, encompassing all things.

So, whether it’s the Great Path of Thunder, the Great Path of Wind, the Great Path of Fire, or the Great Path of Water, Lin Dong had gone deep into the comprehension previously.

He once comprehended the Great Path of Wind amidst the wind, sensed the Great Path of Fire within flames, was tempered by lightning to feel the Dao of Thunder, and even dived into the sea to retreat for days to comprehend the Great Path of Water there.

Lin Dong has incorporated the understanding of these natural daos into his daily life.

Now, the previous comprehension of the Great Path of Water emerged in his mind.

He imagined the surroundings being the Great Path of Water, merging into it, even imagining himself as a drop of water in the vast sea.

But doing just this could only enhance his understanding of the Great Path of Water.

The comprehension of ‘Sword Intent of Water’ is not just limited to understanding ‘Great Path of Water’; more importantly, it’s about the comprehension of ‘Sword Dao of Water’.

“Comprehending the Great Path of Wind, I understood amidst Wind Blade; comprehending the Great Path of Fire, I understood amidst flames… Then, for this Sword Intent of Water, I should comprehend not only within water but more within the Sword Intent of Water itself.”

With that thought, a determined light exploded in his true self’s eyes.

Afterward, he unleashed the ‘Dragon Blood Holy Body’.

“Let my true self experience your Sword Intent of Water!”

He intended to use his true self to accept the ‘Baptism of Sword Intent of Water’ and use this method to comprehend the ‘Sword Intent of Water.’

This method is akin to practicing spear techniques through actual combat, honing amidst the barrage of gunfire. This approach is evidently the easiest to succeed.

After all, the brink of life and death is where human potential is most easily stimulated.

However, as always, fortune is sought amid danger, and this has always been Lin Dong’s style. At the moment, after summoning the ‘Dragon Blood Holy Body’, his true self charged towards the Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation’s attack.

He landed within the range of ‘Sword Intent of Water’ unleashed by the Susano’o Heavenly Boundary Incarnation.

Within that area, Lin Dong felt the omnipresent sword intent was attacking him.

“The Path of Water, profound and formless, omnipresent, embracing all, adhering to nature. It can perfectly meld with any entity.”

“And the Sword Intent of Water naturally possesses the characteristics of the Great Path of Water.”

Lin Dong was amazed to find that once covered by the attack range of the Sword Intent of Water, countless Water Sword Qi attacked his physical body.

His entire being, with no dead ends, was enduring the attack of the Sword Intent of Water.

Even his eyeballs were under attack.

Fortunately, he had summoned the ‘Dragon Blood Holy Body’.

The Dragon Blood Holy Body withstood the attack of the Sword Intent of Water.

“Not good, this Sword Intent of Water actually invaded inside me, attacking from within my body.”

Lin Dong was somewhat shocked that the ‘Sword Intent of Water’ was truly omnipresent.

It wasn’t merely attacking Lin Dong’s physical body from every angle.

It also conducted a baptism of sword intent from inside out on Lin Dong.

But the Dragon Blood Holy Body altered not only the robustness of the surface of Lin Dong’s physical body but also strengthened even the five internal organs and six hollow organs.

Though the Sword Intent of Water had dispersed into countless sword intents, its power was naturally less terrifying than when concentrated into one.

If it had been concentrated into one, slicing a Second Layer of Water Sword Intent from within Lin Dong, he wouldn’t have been able to withstand it.

Lin Dong pushed his defense to the limit.

Constantly infusing Inner Qi, his Mental Power driven Dragon Blood Holy Body.

Meanwhile, he felt the ‘Sword Intent of Water’.

And he once again entered the ‘Selfless Realm’!

The Sword Intent of Water had permeated his entire body, whether skin or internal organs, even blood vessels…

His entire being was filled with ‘Sword Intent of Water’.”

At that moment, he felt as if he had also transformed into a part of the ‘Sword Intent of Water’.

“I understand!”

Lin Dong suddenly opened his eyes!
