Although he hadn't trained using his newly awakened seven stars killing sword, it was born from his very soul so there was never a more fitting sword for him than this one, during the time he learned swordsmanship, he started manifesting sword intent, despite the fact that he was only six years old at the time, he had been training with a sword for a little more than 3 years now,
So the moment his martial soul awakened all the accumulation simply needed to be integrated with his soulforce so that he could generate sword intent, that was the first step for all swordsmen seeking a way to the top, however I was a hurdle every swordsman must face, accumulation of the sword's comprehension is only part of sword intent,
The biggest hurdle to comprehending the sword's intent actually comes from the Swordsman's very understanding of the sword, in essence as a swordsman you are the sword, what you hold in your hand is simply an extension of your power but the swordsman is the true sword, to comprehend and generate sword intent you need to understand the philosophy of the sword,
In essence you need to understand your qualities as a sword, in his current situation Shuang Chen need to comprehend himself as a sword, watching his mother's sword that was Invincible and endless an idea dawned in his mind, his mother is the greatest swordsman he has ever seen but even her invincible sword cannot defeat this destructive power released from a few chain fragments in his sea of spirit,
So invincibility also has a limit, so if even invonciniloty can be destroyed, then the sword of destruction would be the top most existence however destruction goes against all forces of life and creation, destruction is the destination of all life, his sword intent was simply at its infancy, if he comprehended it as destruction then that would be the end of his journey ad a swordsman,
But there must be something else, something that even destruction has to follow, as he thought of that he watched the purple-gold crystal in his sea of spirit, thr crystal was clearly the source of the destructive energy that was nearly killing him however it was being contained, what could contain destruction itself, he looked closer and realized the six orbs along with their chains form some kind of formation,
The formation was Invincible hen it had seven nodes, bit even though a singular node has been undone, it's all the crystal can do to release slight wisps of destructive aura but it cannot truly escape this formation, as he watched the formation some more he could see something, it wasn't so evident before but now that he looks closer he could see it,
These were law engravings, someone engraved the power of law into his sea of spirit and this law power restrained the destructive power of this crystalline source of destruction, these law threads even relied on the very energy if the crystal to seal it, the engravings drank in the destructive aura and used of to seal the crystal, on closer inspection, little bits of law engraving were etched all over the chains and the remaining six orbs,
This meant that this very law had already been introduced into his body through the seventh orb that fell into his body, as he thought of this his mental power resurfaced, despite the miserable state he was in, he actually managed to re-condense his spiritual form, although illusory his spiritual form was reborn, he sent it spreading through his body studying the situation he was in and as he searched he found the traces of the scattered law engravings from the orb, they were scattered all over his blood vessels like impurities so an idea dawned on him.
These law engravings they would be his first step into the path of the sword, something that didn't fight against the flow but rather used the flow itself to accomplish its own agenda, and just then clarity dawned on his spirit, this would be the perfect combination of a sword's journey, from here onwards, a sword can become anything, he could become anything,
Any other path would have restricted his path forward based on his comprehension, however the law path opened all avenues for him, so his foundation of the sword commonly referred to as sword intent will be simple, this is the sword of law, as he finished this, there was a sudden surge in his sea of spirit, it was like something came into existence, suddenly there was a tense vibration in his sea of spirit, the purple gold crystal and its purplish red orbs were suddenly encased massive energy fluctuations, the engravings from the chains that had fallen into hs ea of spirit suddenly woke up like they seemed to have found new purpose,
The law engravings flew from all over the sea of spirit and combined together and even they were all gathered they actually transformed into a sword projection, however this wasn't his mother's sword projection, it was the seven stars killing sword projection, his was his sword, he had condensed a portion of his spirit into a sword, and with this the sword started humming, with its hum, all the destruction intent was drawn towards the sword rather than away from it,
The law engravings from before blazed to life on the sword's body and although the engravings weren't a language Shuang Chen understood what they meant just by looking at their arrangement, they spelled out the sword of law, and on closer inspection imhe discovered what kind of law he was looking at,
In his body, the engravings from before also activated, each law engraving flew to one of his major organs, it wasn't enough to forge his spirit into a sword, he had to forge his body into a sword, and with these engravings the sword intent would become one with him, after each of his vital organs and meridians were engraved with law markings the remaining engravings fused I to his spirit projection and this projection descended into the dantian,
In there he fused his projection with his dantian making the energy in his dantian surge once more pushing him past the limit once again as he stepped into the ninth rank, and with a rise in soul force the flow of blood power in his power body was elevated as well, however this time the destruction intent became fuel for him, after fully integrating into his body a spark was born in his dantian, the spark fused with his martial soul both the sword and the creature, and with this spark the law engravings all over his body moved and the law he had comprehended before was born, this was the most violent and most unstable of all elemental laws,
The one law that defied all forms of elemental attribute, this was because this element had no antithesis, all elements in nature had an opposite, even the most powerful original laws of time and space or even creation and destruction, they stand opposite from each other balancing themselves out. But one element was born from chaos and its end result was undetermined, it was the only element without an opposite because it dominated as well as cooperated with all elemental laws.
This was the law of lightning and thunder, it was the only dual law in existence and the only self sustaining law, this was why the universe mind utilized this law to enforce laws and eliminate threats, this was why all calamities or tribulations arrive in the form of thunder and lightning, this was the ultimate expression of the universe's power, unrivaled and unequaled and now his.
For some reason he had tapped into the original law engravings of the thunder and lightning law and by fusing them with himself he practically gave birth to the elements of thunder and lightning in his body, and perfectly fused them with not only himself, but also his martial soul and his spirit, with this fusion came the end of the final hurdle of this comprehension session.
His soul force had shockingly risen by three levels, that is right he had already stepped into rank 10, his sea of spirit had enlarged massively, from its original 30 meters diameter it actually expanded to over 100 meters most of this came from absorbing the destructive aura and intent from the chains of destruction that fell in his sea of spirit, these chains carried massive power and the pressure they exerted to his mind elevated his strength, although he couldn't be certain he could feel that his spirit had entered a new state of being,
On his martial soul, the first crystalline blue star projection manifested into reality, that is he had stepped into a new rank of power, he opened his eyes to find that he was naked, there was no one else in the room with him at the time, he summoned his sword and it had changed, the originally blue gold sword handle turned blue silver with slight purple gold traces engraved into the sword handle like miniature magical engravings, the sword body was still a snow white jadeite form but with his elevated spiritual sense, he could detect a slight aura flow along the sword body.
