"Sword intent?" muttered Pei Xuanjing.
He felt the indescribable something, akin to an atmosphere or perhaps 'sword intent'.
An atmosphere is an elusive feeling a cultivator gets as they progress in their martial arts. It transforms into something controllable during martial studies, and when used in combat, the martial artist's power far exceeds the ordinary.
Suffice it to say, whether it's bare-handed combat or weapons, if one can master this atmosphere, then they can undoubtedly cultivate the martial art to its apex.
However, sometimes, no matter how much effort you put into cultivating a martial art to its ultimate state, it still doesn't guarantee that you can grasp this atmosphere.
"They say in the martial world, only those who grasp the atmosphere can truly cultivate the martial art to its peak and carve out their own path. I wonder if that's true," mused Pei Xuanjing.
