After turning away from Jin Xi, Yuan returned to focusing on the masked man with Divine Gaze.
Very quickly, he realized something.
'T-This is… His muscles and bones are enveloped in Sword Aura!' Yuan cried inwardly after realizing this.
However, that was just the beginning.
"No… Even his blood cells are enveloped in Sword Aura?! How is that possible?!" He exclaimed out loud, his eyes filled with interest.
"Did Brother Yuan just say his blood is enveloped by Sword Aura?" Xiao Hua's voice resounded a second later.
"Yes… It seems like everything inside his body, from his muscles to his blood cells, are covered in Sword Aura." Yuan confirmed.
"Do you know what is going on, Xiao Hua?" He then asked.
"Un. He has achieved what is known as a Sword Body. This is only possible when one unifies the very essence of Sword Aura with their own body. Only those with extreme understanding of Sword Aura and talent could achieve a Sword Body. Since ancient times, there has never been more than 10 Swordmasters that have achieved a Sword Body at any given time within the entire Nine Heavens, and less than 100 Swordmasters have ever achieved this state." Xiao Hua explained to him.
"Is that so… A Sword Body, huh?" Yuan mumbled in a dazed voice.
Then he realized something, "Wait… Does this mean that he's telling me to achieve a Sword Body right now?! How am I even supposed to do that?"
"If he's your incarnation, you should be able to achieve it, Young Master." Feng Yuxiang said.
"How long does it usually take for one to achieve a Sword Body? Assuming they have what it takes to even achieve it." Lin Yingying asked out of curiosity.
"Hard to say, but nobody would be surprised even if it took those with a Sword Body over ten thousand years to achieve it. That's just how extremely rare they are."
"Over ten thousand years?" Yuan swallowed nervously upon hearing this.
Even if he was a genius, this trial will probably take him a long time to complete. Hopefully, he'll finish it before the tomb closes.
"Xiao Hua, do you know the process of attaining a Sword Body?" He asked her the most important question.
"Sorry, Brother Yuan, but there is very little information about Sword Bodies in general. Unless you learn from those with a Sword Body, nobody can really say for sure what it takes to achieve it."
"No worries. I guess I'll start by unifying my Sword Aura with my body— at least try to."
And without saying anything, Yuan took a seat in front of the masked man and began inspecting his body again with Divine Gaze.
However, even after staring for many minutes, Yuan still didn't know where to start.
'How do I even unify my Sword Aura with my body? Which part of my body do I start from?'
"Helping our family? Everything he's done up to this point was mostly for you! I'm actually shocked that he hasn't outright proposed to you yet." freёwebnovel.com
