System Journey to Godhood

Chapter 106: Second Round, Swords Ascension (2)

Seeing Meng Qi and Snowy still chatting, Qi Ying'er stomped her feet and yell impatiently, "C'mon, C'mon, don't waste time anymore! Let's start!"

The four of them quickly dashed toward the top.

The first nine stairs were like a breeze to Snowy.

In the blink of an eye, she had already arrived at the first gate.

The air suddenly changed when she step up on the gate platform, it became cold and sharp, trying to slice her body with a thousand cuts.

They were sword intent that emitted by the swordmark that engraved on the surface of the stone gate.

Due to her high cultivation base, the sword intent on the first gate couldn't leave any wound on her body at all.

Of course, not everybody was left unscathed like Snowy.

The examinees who were still in the Qi Gathering stage suffer badly under the imposing sword intent. 

Most of them had already started to feel tired due to the pressure as they climbed the stairs, they became even more vulnerable to the presence of the sword intent.

But only in danger could people found opportunity.

The sword intent that tortures them could also bring the opportunity to further temper their own sword mastery if they could comprehend the scar left on the stone gate.

"Sword Qi I finally comprehend the Sword Qi!"

"Cough this insight! If I can implement it on my sword art its might will be double or triple!"

"Damn! I still don't understand! I don't understand!"

There were many people who gained something, there were also people who gained nothing.

It depended on their comprehension of the sword dao and their own will as cultivators.

But of course, there was an anomaly like Snowy too.

She quickly uses her own sword intent to subdued the word intent emitted by the gate.

Her aura became incredibly cold and sharp like a sword left its scabbard.

Her sword intent gradually assimilated the sword intent left on the first gate.

She can sense that her sword intent became stronger as her sword intent "devour" the sword intent on the first gate.

This transformation could only be observed by someone who had reached Grandmaster level in Swordsmanship or someone who was extremely sensitive to the sword dao.

To many of the spectators, they could only see that Snowy suddenly fell into a daze after arriving at the first gate. 

She was the only one who still stay in the first gate out of the four girls that climbed together.

The spectators outside the examination ground felt puzzled by the sudden change in Snowy.

Some said that she felt pressurized by the competition, some said that she got enlightenment and fell into a meditative state.

Only Elder Lan had vaguely sensed the invincible clash between the sword intents and was stunned by what she experiences. 

Her body trembled as she looked at Snowy like she was looking at a monster.

An 18-year-old girl that was only in the Qi Transformation stage had comprehended a sword intent! 

An 18-year-old Sword Grandmaster!

A peerless genius in Sword Dao had appeared!

Now she understood why people like Elder Yang and Feng Xue held Snowy in high regard.

She was very excited and depressed at the same time.

As one of those who acknowledge as Legendary Genius among the sword cultivator, Elder Lan felt a little bit downhearted by the appearance of Snowy.

What talent? What genius? It wasn't worth any shit when compared to Snowy.

Truly comparison was the thief of all joy.

She immediately took out her transmission jade and send the report to Sect Master containing all the things she witnessed. 

Meanwhile, Snowy finally finished to assimilates all the swords intents within the first gate.

She continued her way to the second gate without any difficulty at all.

She easily climbed the second set of stairs like strolling in the garden.

She arrived at the second gate within a minute and sensed that the sword intents quickly engulfed her.

The more articulate the swordmark carved on the stone gate, the stronger the sword intent within it.

However, just like in the first gate, Snowy's sword intent gradually overwhelmed the stone gate's sword intent and slowly assimilated them to make itself stronger.

Snowy's sword intent was like a memory foam that change the shape following the force that applied to it.

Some will said it was harmony and some said it was predatory.

Snowy herself called her sword intent as Convergence.

Three thousand sword intents converge into one.

It's kind of similar to her all thing mastery but it applied to sword intent.

Of course it was still far from three thousand sword intent but, fortunately for Snowy, the sword intents in each of the stone gates will provide her great assist to perfect her sword intent.

She spend another 10 minutes on the second gate before continued to ascend the staircase.

She finally catching up with some of the examinees who started way earlier than her.

Snowy finally caught up with some of the examinees who started way earlier than her.

A lot of them had their clothes tore up and their body wounded.

A sign of exhaustion clearly reflected by their tired eyes.

It seemed that the word intents did significant damage to them and the pressure that they had to endure during the climb was like kicking them when they are down.

When they looked at Snowy who leisurely overtook them. They felt shocked and soon felt pain in their heart.

'We are sweating and bleeding to get to this point but this girl is doing just fine like strolling in the market! Where's the justice in this?! Where!' they roared within their heart and looked at Snowy with incredulity.

Snowy who didn't know what they thought of her quickly passed them and reached the third gate.

There she saw the three girls that start the climb with her and a person that Snowy wanted to see the most.

Xian Bu Yu sat in the lotus position seemingly focused on comprehending the sword intent unaware that Snowy looked at him with a glint in her eyes.
