Chapter 205 - [Host, It Is Not Lightning Sword Domain.]
[A/n: Check paragraph comment to see Lightning Domain.]
*zing!*
*bam!*
*Zzzz!*
*Pat!*
Sounds echoed throughout the hall as Ye Tian Yun continued to practice his newfound lightning Sword Domain and used his sword to direct the lightning at the opposite wall.
The lightning strikes, however, didn't cause any harm to the wall, clearly indicating that Ye Tian Yun hadn't unlocked the full potential of his new power.
Taking a break, Ye Tian Yun calmed his heartbeat and once again continued the barrage of attacks on the wall.
The reason why he hadn't launched a full power lightning attack was because he was trying to get used to this familiar power.
Even though it had been only six months since he had gone through rebirth, it felt like it had been a lifetime since he used these lightning attacks; thus, he was more enjoying the moment rather than practicing.
A few minutes later, after striking the wall many times, Ye Tian Yun's excitement finally calmed down.
Now that he had the Lightning Sword Domain ready, the only thing left was to integrate this domain with his other Sword Domain and see the outcome.
Nodding his head, Ye Tian Yun first decided to smoothen his control over the new sword domain before integrating both of the sword domains.
And to smoothen his control, the only thing he could do was practice in different ways and get as close to the last form as possible.
However, just as he took a fighting stance, System made a prompt in front of him.
[Host, it's not recommended that you waste too much on practicing your control over this Sword Domain.]
'Hmm? Why shouldn't I? Didn't we discuss that this place is the best to cultivate Sword Intent since there's a good density of Chaos Qi in this hall? Then why are you telling me it will be a waste of time?'
[Host, the answer is pretty simple - you can focus on smoothening your control after you have integrated your Sword Domains.]
'But wouldn't that be hard if I don't have good control over my new Sword Domain? Don't forget that I can barely control my other Sword Intent, and now if I don't even focus on this new Sword Intent, wouldn't that only bring trouble for me when I start integrating two 'uncontrollable' Sword Intents?'
[Host, fortunately for you, this won't be the case. Because your Sword Intent would be easy to control.]
'Hm? How will it be easy? Even though I had a lightning Sword Domain in my previous life and I am very familiar with it, I still need some time for my physical body to get used to this power.'
[You're thinking it wrong, Host. You don't have Lightning Sword Domain. What you have is a Natureless Sword Domain.]
'What!?' System's reply confused Ye Tian Yun even more.
Clearly, he had been practicing and trying to comprehend the Lightning nature Sword Domain, so how is it natureless?
[Host, System is referring to the real nature of your Sword Intent. You have a natureless Sword Intent. So how could you have lightning Sword Domain?]
'Uh… the lightning that I attacked that wall with… was that not enough to prove?'
[Don't forget the reason why you 'focused' on creating a lightning Sword Domain.]
'The reason? Hmm, I focused on Lightning because my Sword Intent had no nature. This made it impossible for me to create a Sword Domain.
'However, I thought of my new Sword Intent to be a clean slate on which I can draw anything I want. Thus, I changed my focus on Lightning nature because I am familiar with this nature so it would be easy to comprehend and control.'
[Yes, Host. This means you 'assumed' your Sword Intent to have Lightning nature; it doesn't mean that your Sword Intent's nature 'turned' into lightning.]
'Hm?' Ye Tian Yun frowned, 'If it didn't turn into Lightning nature, doesn't that mean that everything I have gained right now is not real? Wouldn't that mean we have wasted our time for nothing?'
[No Host, you haven't wasted your time or anything, you have actually gained a lot - you started with the assumption of Lightning nature, and luckily for you, you succeeded in creating the Lightning Sword Domain.]
'Only an assumption?... Doesn't that mean… that I will be able to create any other nature's Sword Domain too!?'
[Only if you can comprehend its Sword Intent.]
'Damn! That's still too big of a power-up for me! Imagine having a Sword Intent of all types of natures and integrating them! How powerful would that be!?'
[Host… please don't make it a goal for yourself. As amazing as it sounds, it's also hard and almost impossible.]
[Average cultivators take a whole lifetime to comprehend one kind of Sword Intent, and here you are talking about getting all of them? First of all, you don't have that much time, and secondly, it's just a pipe dream. Just forget it, don't waste your time unless there's a sure-fire chance to get another Sword Intent without wasting much time.]
'Sure-fire chance? Are there ways to get Sword Intents easily?'
[Host… it's still too early for you to know about these. Maybe after you reach the apex of this Universe, you might stand a chance to know some good secrets.]
'What would I do by knowing the secrets after reaching the apex? What would be the use?'
[Host, the apex is just another beginning. The universe is infinite, and fate is limitless. You will understand once you get to the peak of this world.]
Ye Tian Yun rolled his eyes, 'It's too early to discuss such a thing. And I have no reason or motivation to go beyond the universe. What will be the use? Why should one become the ruler of the heavens? What makes cultivators want to go after immortality? Is it for power? Is it for authority? Is it for women? Is it eternal life? What is it, System?'
