Death… And Me

Chapter 1620 Sword Intent vs. Space Power

One must remember that Luan's elemental affinity was Space. Unfortunately, it was common sense that only those at the Void Tempering Realm should be able to use it. Without that, the only way to use spatial powers was through unconventional methods—for example, teleport formations. However, lo and behold, the silver light around Luan's sword, broke such conventions.

*Swish!*

The swords from both sides connected.

*Clang!*

The sound of the clash reverberated through the area as the swords in the vicinity trembled in excitement.

*Vla, vla, vla, vla, vla...*

Eventually, one of the swords was sent flying in the air.

*Fank...*

It then hit the floor as the remnant power caused the sword to sink half its blade into the formation-protected ground of the arena.

*Thud!*

Following that, the sound of someone falling on his butt appeared.

"Ah!"

Only then did everyone wake up from the stupor. The fight was over as fast as it began. As for the winner, there wasn't much of a surprise there. Roan stood in front of Luan, who was not looking at him from the floor. "Sigh... father, is it even possible to win against you at the same level?"

However... "Hahaha!" Roan was more than satisfied with what he just saw that everyone heard his hearty laugh for the first time. Roan was now able to use Sword Intent. Well, Rean could do that as well, thanks to their Soul Connection. It's just that it was the first time it appeared.

One of the reasons Roan was able to achieve Sword Intent was thanks to Destiny Avoidance Mode. His mind was able to relax, which led to the discovery of this new type of energy related to swords and all weapons. Naturally, Roan could do that with his White Scythe as well.

In any case, Luan's achievement wasn't the least bit uninteresting. Space Power at the Saint Realm! Even with Luan's Space Affinity, he thought Luan wouldn't be able to touch this power before the Transition Realm at the very least. That's because the Transition Realm was the realm where one would transform themselves.

Roan then threw that wooden sword to Luan, who caught it absent-mindedly. Right after...

*Crack, crack, crack...*

*Bam!*

The wooden sword shattered into thousands of pieces. Luan's sword, at the very least, was still intact.

Roan then patted the young man's shoulder as he said, "I told you, didn't I? If you damaged my wooden sword, it would be your victory. Truth be told, I didn't expect you could do it at all. But look at that. My wooden sword is gone. You have far surpassed my expectations. Space Power at the Saint Realm. Hahaha! That's my disciple for you."

Rean then came down from the skies after that, telling Roan, "Can you stop laughing? Look around you. Everyone is becoming even more scared of you because none of them had ever seen you do that."

Naturally, Roan's smile disappeared as his mood dampened from those words. "Which one do you think is scarier? My laugh or what I'm about to do with you and them?"

As soon as those words came out, the entire crowd disappeared like the wind. No one wanted to see the wrath of the training devil. As for Luan, he had just come back, so they could ask more about him later.

Rean just laughed in response as he praised Luan. "Hahaha! I'm joking, I'm joking. In any case, I'm truly impressed, Luan. Roan used Sword Intent in that attack. Let alone shatter his wooden sword, I didn't believe you could leave a single dent behind."

Luan was happy that his father and uncle were shocked by his display to such an extent. Then again, he didn't think he did that well. "Father used a wooden sword, not to mention he hasn't taken a single step away from his position. I'm still far, far from becoming someone at both your levels." It was then that Luan noticed something as he looked at Roan, asking, "Father, how come you seemed to expect my attack would contain spatial power? It was as if you knew it even before I made my move."

Roan nodded, saying, "Indeed, I knew it would have Space Power behind it. The reason is simple as well."

Rean couldn't help but smile as he added, "The same goes for me. The moment your energy began to gather, I also could tell it was coming."

Luan was taken aback. "Could it be..."

Rean and Roan nodded, telling him, "Both of us have also touched the power of space."

That's true. Rean and Roan were able to manipulate and feel a very tiny amount of spatial power. It was so small that even Luan's spatial power just now was several times more powerful than what they could use. Nevertheless, they did that without having Space Affinity or being in the Void Tempering Realm. One might think they were just one realm behind the Void Tempering Realm. However, that single realm should make it impossible to gather or use Spatial Powers.

"I see... no wonder father and uncle could tell what my attack had behind it. It probably felt like tiny particles of black had appeared in your natural spatial perception," Luan concluded.

Roan was even more satisfied with Luan's quick thinking. "Very good. You were correct. Rean and I still can't manipulate enough space power to use it. We're far behind anyone in the Void Tempering Realm when it comes to this point. Your Space Affinity obviously helped you with it, but we don't have that. However, it's at least good enough for us to develop a natural spatial perception."

Rean shrugged his shoulders, saying, "Well, Void Tempering Realm cultivators have perceptions that go as far as ten kilometers when they reach that realm. Roan and I can't even perceive beyond a hundred meters."

Rean then thought about something. "By the way, Luan. Did you develop a natural spatial perception?"

Luan shook his head, replying, "Not really. However, I believe the reason is that my body isn't ready for that. Father and uncle's bodies are already passing through the transformation, but it will take time until I reach the Transition Realm."

Roan nodded. "It's good that you already have an idea why this is. Indeed, I think you're correct."

Eventually, Luan couldn't help but ask, "Father... Can you teach me sword intent?"

Roan narrowed his eyes in response after hearing that question.
