Chapter 248: 210~211: Ancient Color Sentiments, Domineering Sword’s Big Brushwork (For an additional 9/1000 monthly ticket)_2

The Domineering Blade’s gaze was solemn, first falling on the Saber carried by the burly man before him.

Just by looking at the hilt and hearing the clinking sound, he knew what type of saber it was.

Golden Ring.

A saber unrecognized in the Martial World.

The person before him,

Having left the Martial World for many years, was also unrecognizable.

Thus, he could also be considered as one of the unrecognized people of the Martial World.

"Who are you?"

"Jiang Dali!"

Jiang Dali looked around, not seeing his brother of the Ancient Color Strange People, and his gaze soon returned to the aged and somewhat hunchbacked figure of the Domineering Blade, feeling a bit disappointed.

"Are you really the domineering blade? The former manor owner of Jueqing Manor?"

The Domineering Blade’s eyes were absent-minded, but they gradually began sharpening, and his voice was calm, "That’s right."

Jiang Dali nodded his head, "I heard that Jueqing Manor is a place that doesn’t respect life, teaching disciples with mercilessness, a lack of pity and love, cutting off friendships.

A person has to kill his seven good friends in succession within seven years to become the direct disciple of the Domineering Blade and learn the Heartless Slash.

I wonder if this rule still exists?"

The Domineering Blade shook his head, "The Jueqing Manor no longer exists, and neither does the heartless manor owner; the Heartless Slash also only remains known to one person in this world, but it’s not me."

"Oh?"

Jiang Dali smiled, "As expected, I heard you now have wife and children, and your daughter is not young anymore. A person with love and family is definitely not one to use the Heartless Slash, and probably wouldn’t even touch a saber.

Since you no longer need the heartless saber skills, why not hand the Saber Manual over to me?"

The Domineering Blade’s face was tight, vigilant like when someone was stealing his fruit, "The Heartless Slash should no longer appear in the Martial World, and moreover, there’s no Saber Manual here. A person like you doesn’t need to learn such a merciless, unloving saber skill."

Jiang Dali nodded with his arms crossed, "I might not need it, but I want to experience and understand what truly is the Heartless Slash, what truly is the Domineering Blade.

My martial arts path, whether fist and foot skills or saber skills and inner strength, is also pursuing the majesty of dominance, creating miracles with great strength.

And the majesty of dominance does not require cutting off everything to be exhibited, but this still needs to be verified by personal experience."

"Creating miracles with great strength... One does not need to sever all ties to exhibit it..."

The Domineering Blade murmured, as if resonating, his spirit was shaken and his eyes shone brilliantly as he stared intently at Jiang Dali, "You want to test yourself against the saber?"

Jiang Dali’s eyes revealed a smile, "Of course!"

The Domineering Blade, with a tone both mournful yet strangely fervent, "I haven’t held a saber for many years, my body has also grown old.

Over these years, I’ve watched the orange trees in the courtyard bloom and bear fruit, yet I feel as though my heart, like those fruits, is full of vigour and warmth.

But alas... my body, after all, has aged. The heart might not age, but the body certainly does; maybe that’s just a joke."

As the Domineering Blade spoke, his eyes grew brighter, and even though his body was bent and crooked, he still emitted an increasingly terrifying sword intent.

That sword intent, growing thicker with the brightness of his eyes, was not harsh, like splitting a ray of spring light in autumn and winter, seemingly ordinary, yet irresistible, bursting forth with vigorous vitality.

"This Sword Intent!!"

Jiang Dali’s eyes narrowed, and the golden light knife at his back resonated with trembling energy.

Just then, some withered grass in the courtyard gently trembled, while the still green-leaved orange trees seemed to release an even stronger vitality, the oranges on the trees as if ready to burst at any moment.

"Young man, you have come seeking enlightenment, but I, the Domineering Blade, am old, only the intent remains. I will make only one cut, if you can comprehend something from it, you just need to promise me one thing—find Gui Hai Yidao...help me..."

The Domineering Blade’s eyes were filled with a sharp gleam, staring intensely at Jiang Dali, that gaze mixed with the sword intent made Jiang Dali feel a throbbing terror, a sensation as if his eyes were painfully pressed against a blade edge, even wanting to lower his head to avoid it.

But he knew.

At this time, Jiang Dali absolutely must not dodge.

Once he dodged, his mind and will would first be injured.

The strong confidence and the great aspiration for the future, both brought on by the past days’ enhancement of strength and continuous defeat of formidable enemies, would also be wounded.

And should that happen, his path of Great Strength would collapse.

Even if he survived, his journey in Martial Arts would be hindered.

The weak injures the body, the strong breaks the spirit!

Such is the saying.

However, just then, atop the courtyard walls, Dongfang Bubai’s cold and majestic gaze suddenly fell, fixing itself upon the two individuals in the arena.

This gaze was like two needles staring down, and though it did not completely destroy the domain of Sword Intent created by the Domineering Blade, it nonetheless instantaneously altered the atmosphere.

Jiang Dali slightly relaxed, sensing a sudden message on his interface at this moment.

"Triggered Revenge Quest ’Domineering Blade’s Glory’

Quest Content: In pursuit of a successor, the Domineering Blade spent seven years training disciples. He selected one hundred disciples, requiring them to train with the saber and to kill each other, with only one survivor in the end. That one would inherit his mantle. Eventually, Gui Hai Yidao succeeded, surpassed his master in skills, defeated the Domineering Blade, and forced him to retire from the Martial World.

However, after many years in retirement, the Domineering Blade unexpectedly derived the Affectionate Blade from the Heartless Blade, and from the Sword Intent of annihilation, he grasped the thriving Sword Intent of endless life. This is akin to Little Xieyi in relation to Big Brushwork. Though the body of Domineering Blade was old, his spirit was not, and he still harbored one longtime wish...

Quest Requirement: Under the Sword Intent of the Domineering Blade, withstand until the last, fully comprehend his Sword Intent, and find Gui Hai Yidao to experience his Heartless Slash.

Quest Reward: Domineering Blade’s Sword Intent, Saber Skill infusion."

"This quest... if I can’t manage it, even if I don’t die, my confidence and Sword Dao would probably be severely damaged!"

These thoughts flickered in Jiang Dali’s heart, yet his gaze gradually became fervent, his blood seeming to boil.

The path of Great Strength, how could it falter before others?

Even if he retreated now, it would likely affect his spirit permanently, leaving a lasting thorn.

But Jiang Dali, when had he ever backed down?

Jiang Dali roared, drawing the Golden Nine-Ring with a clank from behind him. Amidst the dazzling burst of Golden Light, the Tiger Slaughter Golden Ring Saber Intent along with the Saber Qi also surged violently.

"Come then, I, Jiang Dali, accept your request. Today I shall experience your Big Brushwork!"

"Good!! Take my Big Brushwork strike!"

The Domineering Blade yelled, his hunched body instantly straightening the moment he raised his arm, his hand shifting, a knife-hand strike flew out!

Hiss—

A force, though not sharp, carried an overwhelming momentum and fierce Sword Intent, struck mercilessly causing breath to catch and minds to shudder.

The ground’s numerous dead grasses seemed influenced by the Sword Intent at this moment, trembling and struggling as they actually burst through the ground’s soil.

Bang bang bang—

On the orange tree, oranges exploded, jam splashing everywhere, filling the courtyard with a sweet and sour scent.

A Big Brushwork strike teeming with life.

Though not sharp, it seemed like the momentum of season change, with the coming of the spring tide, autumn and winter recede, unstoppable, inescapable, with torrential vivacity.

With the saber in Jiang Dali’s hand just moved, he suddenly felt as if he had gone from autumn and winter directly into spring, and he was like a piece of ice lingering at the riverbank in winter’s tail.

Suddenly, all around was a blazing ferocious fire, also like the radiant sunset ascending at dusk...

The breeze was gentle as cream, flowers ablaze like fire, snow ceased and ice reopened, a thousand zhang green of the spring lake, he, this small piece of ice, felt unbearable discomfort. Despite having immense strength of ten thousand jins, he was about to melt in the warm spring water...
