Magic and Martial War God

Chapter 69: Sword Potential, Sword Control and Sword Mind

Slowly, all four figures dissolved in the air. At this moment, Johnny entered slight enlightenment but only based on the sword.

The Sword God Bloodline was extremely motivated in body, blending within eighty-one sword veins. The bloodline power was scary.

In his blood, tiny red swords were flowing like a log in the water. At this moment, Johnny was constantly searching for the sword's potential.

'Sword Potential is hidden in every swordsman. One needs to find it on their own.'

'What could be my sword potential? How do I search for it? Calm Johnny, you need to be calm. A swordsman should be calm.'

Johnny calmed in his mind and heart. But he couldn't comprehend sword potential for a long time.

He tried to find his sword potential, a day passed by, another day passed, and again another day passed by, finally, on the fourth day, he caught the glimpse of Sword Potential.

On the fifth day, he finally awakened his sword potential and opened his eyes with a sigh of relief "Fortunately I didn't try to comprehend Four Divine Beast Battle Art and Thunder Dragon Sacred Art to Fine and Detailed Realm otherwise I would've missed such chance."

In his mind, there were two different information floating. This information was about two abilities he awakened after finding his Sword Potential.

'One Mind and Two Thoughts- A swordsman needs sword intent, mastering one needs a single thought, mastering two needs two thoughts, but mastering countless only needs two thoughts'

'Sword Control- A swordsman needs to have complete control over a sword even if it is a demonic or cursed sword, it needs to be under the control of the swordsman. No matter how many words, a swordsman should control them all.'

These two were the powerful abilities he gained from his Sword Potential. Of course, they are passive abilities, even so, these abilities are very important for a swordsman.

For the current him, both abilities do not have much impact but from now on, he can release his sword potential. Of course, this sword's potential comes from his bloodline and it was also his first bloodline ability from Sword God Bloodline.

Warrior's arm is the rather offensive ability he gained from War God Bloodline but it also has some supportive ability. Unlike sword potential, which only has the supportive ability.

Sword potential can increase his sword attack power by twice, no-matter the attribute of the sword energy. Sword Potential is a kind of energy that has an effect to empower sword energy. After awakening his Sword God Bloodline and condensing his sword potential, he finally began his practice.

He had already spent a week after starting the God Slaying Sword Heart Technique, and so he can't lose any more time. First, he took out both of his swords and starts with Twin Sword Style.

He performed 'Twin Sword Style- Overturning Double Sword Slash' and 'Twin Sword Style- Tiger's Claw'. Both swords were ferocious and filled with an unrelenting amount of sword energy. The Sword Control ability allowed him to use both swords with more efficiency.

"Whoosh" "Bang" "Whoosh" "Boom"

Two boulders created by the black space inside the room were destroyed. One was cut into three large pieces while the other was shattered into tiny pieces. He didn't even use the Sword Potential but his attack power has increased by thirty percent.

It was a powerful effect due to the proper handling of his swords. Unlike previous, he didn't make any unnecessary moments, and his swords swung in the air like a kite.

Suddenly, the black sword disappeared from his hand, and his feet moved. He took a step forward; his sword was in the top of his head, both of his hands caught the hilt of the sword, slashed forward. The white light covered the sword blade; the sword was like a leaf falling on the ground, slowly but with unwavering might.

"White Leaves Sword Technique- Falling Leaves"

"Whoosh" "Slash" "Bang" His movement were slow, but only in his eyes, for surrounding his sword was traveling with the speed of light, slashing the boulder from top to bottom in a split second.

This time, the sword energy released from his sword was very stable, not a single inch of sword energy was lost on the way nor was it excessive.

But he didn't stop, his sword energy was constantly filling his sword, the sword control was running on its own since it was a passive ability. He didn't even turn on his sword potential, only based on his sword energy; he practiced this sword for a long time.

"White Leaves Sword Technique- Falling Leaves"

"White Leaves Sword Technique- Falling Leaves"

"White Leaves Sword Technique- Falling Leaves"

"Whoosh" "Slash" "Whoosh" "Slash" "Whoosh" "Slash"

He didn't use his sword to cut the boulder again; instead, he swung his sword to cut the air. The power of sword energy was gentle like a piano in the contest, non-stopping, gentle and soft.

After two hours, he stopped his sword practiced and started his real practice. He holds his sword, under the elbow of his left arm, his sword blade was at his back, and his feet moved.

Like a lightning, his figure flashed in the room.

"Whoosh" "Bang" Sword energy erupts out of his body, the power of sword potential was released from his blood, spreading throughout his body to his sword. The edge of the sword was filled with an intensely sharp light, like a snake, his sword swings, and cut the boulder in front of him in half horizontally.

"Life and Death Sword- A sword dividing life and death"

His sword was pounding in his hand because at this moment the sharp edge was smashed hard by the boulder. Johnny confusedly looked at his sword, the size of a boulder was the same, the sword energy and sword potential were the same too but the impact was far lesser than what it should be.

Suddenly, he remembered 'Life and Death Sword, used to divide the life and death of an enemy. It is fast, sharp, and unstoppable, but it can only be used to draw blood. A swordsman sword kills, life and death are in the sword in his hand.'

Silently, Johnny took his damaged sword back to his spatial ring and stopped practicing this art. He sat down while cursing hard "F**k I spent seven days just to practice this sword art, and now you tell me I can't use it except for killing." Suddenly, he stopped cursing and murmured "I was the one who read that, so why the hell am I cursing myself?"

With a little regret in his head, Johnny stopping thinking about it. Currently, Johnny still had many things to do and the most important now was to start cultivating Heaven Defying Star Force Art.

This cultivation technique is the primary cultivation technique for him, and so he needs to practice this art, almost every time. Currently, due to the suction of Chaos Bearing Elephant Trunk, dark energy has entered the black room, so he doesn't need to go out.

With dragon veins as his foundation for cultivation, he can endure almost any kind of energy inside his body. Of course, he also hasn't forgotten about the Nine Divine Dragon Battle Technique.

He still needs to make a million circulations to complete. But first, he is going to run Heaven Defying Star Force Art. In his inner space, there was a star core with the size of a large football. It was gushing lava out of it.

The star force was domineering, and Johnny began to strengthen the star seed in his inner space. Of course, there was no limit to how many stars he can form. The only problem was energy, it was almost impossible to condense another star just based on the dark energy from the surrounding.

In other words, he can only rely on some powerful source such as Dark Energy Veins.

While strengthening his star seed, he occasionally uses the star force to strengthen his body. This star force was a huge supplement to improve his overall body. Each time he tempers his body with star force, it strengthening each cell from their core and finally ends with the complete body.

But just a single tempering takes more than four hours to complete. Not only was it hard, but also painful. The star force was like hot magma, even though it was just a gust of gas-like energy, it was very much painful to use.

Like this, he continued to temper his body with star force while strengthening the star core for three days straight. Finally, on the fourth day, he stopped Heaven Defying Star Force Art.

For three days, he regularly tempered his body which made his body a lot stronger, not just defense or offense but the overall body. The energy present in the surrounding decreasing rapidly. So he stopped for now and started Nine Divine Dragon Battle Technique.

Every time, he cultivates for long, he takes time to practice the first stage of the Nine Divine Dragon Battle Technique. He has barely reached five hundred thousand circulations which was the realm of great accomplishment.

He doesn't how many circulations he can finish within four days, but he hopes to reach perfection since his circulation time has decreased by a lot. He took out few dark crystals from his spatial ring and started refining them.

The dark crystal released a gust of powerful dark energy around him and the spiritual root inside his body began to suck on that dark energy through his nine meridians. In his mind, the first stage of the Nine Divine Dragon Battle Technique was constantly controlling that energy inside his body, and the circulation of that energy began.
