Chapter 195: Crazy Idea 2.0

Ye Tian Yun slowly closed his eyes, and to his surprise, the blinding light was gone!

Calming himself, he stared at the wall in front of him; however, the wall was surprisingly intact!

Earlier, when he had slashed towards it with his sword, he had clearly seen a huge cut on the wall, which led to the appearance of the blinding light ray.

Ye Tian Yun was confused at the sudden changes in the hall - not only was the light gone, but the wall was also undamaged and intact.

It was as if Ye Tian Yun didn't even make his attack.

Confused, he asked, 'System, what's wrong with this wall? And what was that light?'

[Host, this wall is covered with a protective array, this array is powerful enough to recover the wall as soon as there's any harm done on it]

'Oh? There are arrays like this too?' Ye Tian Yun's frown deepened.

The array function seemed quite simple. But in fact, it was actually much more complicated and powerful than it looked.

To be able to repair a broken wall was not something a simple array could do.

'System, what kind of array is this? It repaired the wall too fast.'

[Host, this array is one of the very high tiered ones, it's not yet named.]

Ye Tian Yun was surprised to know that such a powerful array didn't even have its own name. But the surprise didn't last long as he remembered that everything that's too powerful is usually unnamed.

Removing useless thoughts, he focused on the question that was bugging him the most - what was this array doing in the Gracious Sword Sect?

This sect wasn't a hegemon in terms of its powers, and the average cultivation level of the disciple wasn't also very high.

Except for a big history, the Gracious sword Sect was an average normal sect at most. Only in the Xin Kingdom could it be said to have some influence. But in terms of the whole Lower Heavens, it would be placed among the average powers at best.

However, this sect seemed to have more than what it should possess.

At first, it was the Gracious Sword Technique and the Sword Itself. Then this Sword Stele Hall with such high-density Qi, and finally, the intense number of high-level arrays present in the whole sect.

Almost everything that Ye Tian Yun had visited had an array, either big or small; they were there. And they were always running.

But the question arises - how does an average sect in the Lower Heavens run so many arrays at once and for days non-stop?

It would need a lot of resources to keep them running, yet it seemed like the Gracious Sword Sect was never affected.

Ye Tian Yun had a guess for this question. But he wasn't sure if his guess, or in clear terms, the information that he got from his informants, was legit or not.

More than once, he had been proved wrong, and this was making him uncertain about trusting his informant's reports.

Even though only a few details were out of order, all of them were very essential and could have easily ruined Ye Tian Yun's plans if not for his planning and luck.

Keeping aside the question of how the sect was managing so many things, what bugged Ye Tian Yun most right now was that he wasn't able to judge the power of his Sword Intent's slash.

Thus, he decided to attack once more on the wall.

Once again, Ye tian Yun took a fighting stance and tightly gripped the sword in his hand. 

After a few minutes, his surroundings were once again affected as he put forward another powerful attack, straight at the wall!

But the next thing that happened surprised Ye Tian Yun even more!

This time his attack didn't even scratch the wall!

'What? How… did this happen?'

'My last attack clearly made a big crack on the wall, but this didn't even put a scratch? This is quite strange…'

'System, don't tell me this is due to the array too?'

[Indeed, Host, it is the array that had made your attack bearable for the wall.]

'How?'

[The array is such that it will create a new one after its first wall is broken. But this new wall will actually be more sturdy and powerful than the previous version, making it harder to break.]

'This array is quite powerful… but why is it here… oh wait, that light, don't tell me it's to protect the source of that light?'

[Insufficient Fate Points]

'So it is indeed to protect that source, hmm.'

[...]

'Well, my Sword Intent is more important than this wall. Since I can't gauge the raw strength of my Sword Attack, I only have one more method left…'

'I should try to combine my old and new Sword intent and use both of them to counter each other and create a much more powerful end result.'

'Before that, I need to get myself familiarised with the new Sword Intent.'

'Time to practice for a few more hours. The last thing I want is to get blacked out once again while trying to release my Sword Domain.'

Clearing his thoughts, Ye Tian Yun once again began to practice his sword moves.

From slow and steady to swift and sharp, Ye Tian Yun kept on increasing the intensity of his Sword moves.

After a few hours of practicing, Ye Tian Yun felt much more comfortable with his new Sword Intent.

Catching breath, Ye Tian Yun asked, 'System, remove the caps on my old Sword Intent; it's time to try something even crazier.'

[Host, are you sure you want to do this? Please keep in mind that if you end up losing control over the Sword Domain once again, it might get into Sect Leader Su's radar, and your secret might be out too soon.]

Ye Tian Yun nodded but insisted on his earlier dialogue, "System, I understand the risk, but we neither have any other way nor do we have much time, that's why I want to try this method.'

'I want to combine both of my Sword Intents and make something I can control even with such low cultivation.'
