Nobilis of War novel Chapter 1243

"Something's not right!"

Darren suddenly realized that his train of thought was going in the wrong direction.

He should comprehend and take control of the sword intent instead of facing it head on once his soul made its way up the stairs.

Now that he'd tried to fight it with his god's power, he only managed to agitate the sword intent further.

Darren found himself in a critical life or death moment as he watched a tide of sword intents surge right at him.

Something had to be done—and quick. He closed his eyes to adjust his breath until he was completely relaxed, driving the impulse to resist the sword intent out of his mind.

He decided to drop his defenses and allow himself to be attacked full-on.

As the sword intents pierced against Darren's soul one by one, it was like a wave of unbearable pain coursed through him.

However, Darren didn't move an inch. With his spiritual sense, he concentrated to observe the moving trajectory, strength, direction of the sword intents as they hit him.

Suddenly, a bright idea came to him. The supposed random movements of the sword intent were slowly forming a pattern.

Whoosh!

Darren immediately brought out his own sword intent and imitated the trajectory of the terrifying attack raining on him.

After feeling it out the first few times, he got into the motions and pushed onto following it thousands of more times.

Darren's sword intent quickly moved in tune with the complex trajectory.

Suddenly, the malicious aura slowly encroaching on his soul retracted, and little by little, it gathered into Darren's sword intent instead.

"It's starting to fuse!"

Darren was delighted to find that the fearsome sword intents were now completely fused with his own.

Once it was finished, the merged sword intent was compressed into Darren's Sword God Character.

Darren's soul took advantage of this opportunity and stepped forward towards the first step. He landed smoothly and without any hitches.

Darren then woke from his soul state and found that his sword intent had been completely transformed.

Until then, Darren had a very skilled command of the cultivation of this supreme martial skill. His way of cultivating this sword skill was quite different from other people, and it could only grow stronger now that the sword intents had fused.

"Darren, you're finally awake! You have no idea how horrible your aura was just now!"

Darren opened his eyes to find Finley and Lindsay on the edge of hysterics.

"It's okay. I was comprehending the sword skill just now."

"Did you make it? Have you improved your strength again?"

"I guess it's increased a little." Darren gave a calm smile and said, "I'm going to find Murphy and give it a try."

After saying this, he quickly soared away to meet Murphy.

"Hey Master Murphy, how about you help me test out my new sword intent?" Darren asked with a wide grin.

"There is no need to test it out." Marvin shook his head slowly.

"Why not?" Darren asked in confusion.

"I've already sensed it. Once you've mastered this sword intent, it will be on the same level with mine. If you were now at the top level of the Star God Realm, your strength could even be said to be equal to mine."

Those words gave off a high evaluation of Darren's newfound sword intent.

In the entire Primitive Wilderness, it was completely impossible for a cultivator of the Star God Realm to match with a cultivator of the Celestial God Realm. It was an unimaginable feat.

If compared with the cultivation levels of the mortal worlds, the cultivators at the top level of the Star God Realm were equivalent to that of a seven-star grand warrior while the cultivators of the Celestial God Realm was to that of an Emperor Realm master. The two were practically worlds apart in their differences.

However, according to what Murphy had said, Darren would be a proper match once he had mastered the sword intent. It sounded more like a miracle; a feat none had accomplished in the past.

"I have only comprehended one move. When I'm done with all six moves, maybe it's possible. Who knows!" Darren nodded excitedly.

"Well, with this move, you've gotten a bigger chance to defeat Caleb. Now go and get ready," advised Murphy.

"Okay."

Darren flew away. He only had three days left before the duel.

On the day of the duel, King Winfred took Caleb and Darren to a windy mountain peak.
