Chapter 142 - Intent Crystal

"So other than jumping down a mountain and sitting in the middle of a tornado, you two have no other ideas?"

"Hehehehe, did you forget what I once told you, Jian Shen?"

"What are you talking about?"

"I once told you that I have the World Crest filled with everything you might ever need to grow stronger without any problems."

"Oh yeah, you did say that."

It was Juewang who spoke this time, saying, "You have those crystals?"

"Yup."

Gritting her teeth towards Qingyu who looked all high and mighty right now, Juewang was thinking that she should've brought more than just the Scarlet Nine Tailed Fox Sword.

"What types of crystals do you have?"

"I have everything from the most useless Intents, to the Space Intent! Hahahahahaha!"

Gritting her teeth even harder since Qingyu really was well prepared, Juewang turned her head away and refused to look at her.

"What crystals are you talking about?"

"Intent Crystals."

"Intent Crystals?"

Nodding her head with a pleased smile, Qingyu began explaining about them while walking circles around Juewang inside the realm where only they two existed.

"To learn any Intent of Heaven and Earth, the cultivator would either need to have a great talent in the particular Intent he is trying to learn, or go a place that flourishes in it and try to comprehend it."

"However, other than this normal way, there's actually a much better and easier way to comprehend any Intent of Heaven and Earth. And that is by using these Intent Crystals."

Along with Qingyu's words, a small white coloured stone appeared in Jian Shen's hands.

No, it wasn't white coloured. It was more like clear and transparent.

As soon as the stone-like object, which was most likely the Intent Crystal which Qingyu was talking about appeared, Jian Shen could feel the wind whirling towards him from all directions towards.

Pleasantly surprised with how refreshing it felt for the wind to form a miniature tornado around, Jian Shen other than the wind felt the presence of something intangible but omnipresent in the wind around him.

"What is... "

"That's the Intent of Wind. If you manage to comprehend it, you'll be able to start flying right away, Jian Shen."

Nodding his head in understanding, Jian Shen asked Qingyu, "Are there any levels or stages depending on how much one comprehends the various Intents of Heaven and Earth?"

"Not really. You either know an Intent of Heaven and Earth, or you don't. As for those who know, unless two individuals fight against each other with full strength no one can say for sure who has comprehended the Intent more."

"I see."

"Also, an Intent Crystal can only be used one time, so I suggest you try and comprehend the Intent of Wind as much as possible."

Sitting cross-legged on the floor immediately, Jian Shen held the Wind Intent Crystal in the middle of his cupped hands and closed his eyes.

Unlike when he cultivated, Jian Shen didn't cut off his senses and separate himself from the world around him.

Instead, he focussed all his concentration on the wind which was flowing around him.

In the beginning, all Jian Shen sensed was that the wind surrounding him was moving very fast.

Next, he began understanding how the wind was moving that way, how much strength and power there was hidden behind it, and so on.

Finally, just before the Wind Intent Crystal which was as big as baby's clenched fist turned into dust and disappear, Jian Shen figured out all shapes the wind took depending on the way it moved.

Opening his eyes which for a second looked like two tornadoes, Jian Shen realized that he had spent a total of one hour in that mystical state before the Wind Intent Crystal ran out of power in his hands.

"How was it, husband?"

"It was... Different."

"Different good? Or different bad?"

Chuckling at how uncertain Qingyu sounded, Jian Shen chose to let his actions do the talking.

Taking a few steps back from the window and sprinting at his full speed before jumping out of it, Jian Shen started free falling towards the ground.

Even with the ground approaching at a rapid speed and about to hit him in a few seconds, Jian Shen didn't show any movement which started to make the two swords feel a little nervous.

"Jian Shen!"

Finally, just as the two swords were getting ready to make a move, Jian Shen took a second to shut his eyes and concentrate.

The next instant along with his eyes opening, Jian Shen's body turned completely weightless and following it a huge breeze pushed his body up into the air.

Sighing in relief, the two swords despite being a little embarrassed to have been played like this, felt happy at how quickly Jian Shen was able to comprehend the Intent of Wind, and with using a single Wind Intent Crystal as well.

Once Jian Shen managed to get the hang of it and could float in the air without much difficulty, he began flying around in all directions to enjoy how awesome it felt to fly.

...

"Who the hell is using so much Intent of Wind?"

"As far as I can see, there aren't any tornadoes forming anywhere. So whoever is using it, they are using it to fly."

"Fly? With so much wind intent? Who is the idiot that is using so much Intent of Wind to fly? A newly promoted Dharma Cultivator?"

"If it was a newly promoted Dharma Cultivator, he wouldn't be able to comprehend the Intent of Wind so much and collect such great quantities."

"Humph! No veteran would be stupid enough to waste so much Qi and Intent of Wind just to fly around. That too for so long in the same space!"

"Sigh... Why quarrel boys? Isn't it going to be fine if we just go and see who it is?"
