My Sword Intent Can Be Infinitely Improved

Chapter 90: I Won’t Force You

Translator: Daoist6fubtiW

Floating boat in mid-air.

Su Yang walked in the air, step by step towards below.

Guided by the heavenly path, Su Yang entered deep into the mountains and easily found the fragment of the heavenly path.

However… it was attached to a spiritual beast.

Spiritual Beast: Ingests the essence of the sun and moon, can manipulate the power of space, peaceful nature, brings auspiciousness, can be considered a spiritual beast, can be placed in a spiritual land to enhance its quality.

The difference from demonic beasts is that they don’t kill, not just attacking human races, but all living beings.

Spiritual beasts don’t harm any creatures.

“Thunder Mark Deer.” At just a glance, Su Yang recognized the origin of this spiritual beast.

Its features were too distinctive, and easy to recognize.

Markings of thunder on its body, and two antlers were a deep blue color, capable of launching attacks.

Don’t think that spiritual beasts lack attack capabilities.

You’ll know when you actively try to capture and kill them.

When the Thunder Mark Deer saw Su Yang, it instinctively wanted to flee. But under Su Yang’s gentle smile, it made the right choice and stayed in place.

“Come.”

Su Yang spoke softly, very gently, wishing the sword intent weren’t pressing down on the Thunder Mark Deer.

The Thunder Mark Deer approached Su Yang, lowering its head in submission.

Su Yang reached out and touched the deer’s head, feeling it very smooth.

“This hide is really good.”

“Why are you shaking? I’m praising you.”

Su Yang continued to stroke. No wonder people like petting cats and dogs; this feeling was quite good. I wonder if their textures are the same as mine.

A spiritual light emerged from the Thunder Mark Deer and entered Su Yang’s sword.

The purpose of this trip had been fulfilled.

However, Su Yang found himself growing fonder of the Thunder Mark Deer the more he petted it.

“How about following me?”

Feeling the terrifying sword intent enveloping it and looking at Su Yang’s smiling face, the deer’s head swayed up and down.

“Not bad, as long as you’re willing. I won’t force you.” Su Yang turned around and returned to the flying boat.

Gu Xiu was waiting on the flying boat.

When Su Yang returned, there was an extra spiritual deer by his side.

But… its strength seemed to surpass his own?

Oh well, it was normal.

Everything was abnormal, but when it came to Su Yang, everything seemed normal.

“Swordmaster, where to next?”

“To the front left, I’ll let you know when we get there.”

Su Yang asked the Will of All Beings and then made a decision.

As he casually petted the Thunder Mark Deer a couple more times, Su Yang started wielding his sword.

Regardless of what happened or what he did, sword intent was his foundation.

As his level and sword techniques improved, the effect of “Body Tempering Astral Wind” also increased.

Before, it took him half a month to reach the Sixth Grade, but now, it would probably only take three days to reach the External Refining Sixth Grade.

The flying boat traversed the sky, passing through layers of white clouds and soaring above the azure sky.

After about twenty minutes, they reached their destination once again.

This time, it was above a massive lake.

Su Yang appeared above the lake’s surface.

According to the guidance of the heavenly path, there was a fragment inside a fish demon beneath, but the fish demon refused to return it. When the heavenly path tried to extract it, the demon resisted, causing the extraction to fail. Therefore, Su Yang had to kill the fish demon first and then take the fragment.

The fragment from the Thunder Mark Deer had appeared on its own since it didn’t resist.

Given the current weakened state of the heavenly path, forcibly extracting would damage its source, so Su Yang had to take action.

“It’s in the lake… but I can’t swim, let alone dive.”

“No choice, let’s do it this way.”

Su Yang shook his head and then followed the guidance of the heavenly path to the location on the lake’s surface.

Afterward, Su Yang took a step and the water automatically parted.

Step by step, Su Yang walked into the water.

The entire lake split in two, revealing the world beneath.

Su Yang walked within it, waterfalls formed from the parted lake waters on either side.

In the front was a Celestial Realm Sawtooth Fish Demon.

Its body hovered in mid-air and trembled frequently. “Good boy, don’t tremble. You chose this path, don’t blame anyone.”

Su Yang reached out and touched the demon’s head.

A spiritual light emerged from the demon’s head, flying into Su Yang’s sword.

Another fragment of the heavenly path merged with the rest.

Su Yang lifted the demon’s body: “Not bad, at least three hundred pounds!”

He quickly returned to the flying boat, the Thunder Mark Deer looking at Su

Yang as he handed over a demon of the same level.

Sizzle… did the fish demon die?

“Old Gu, take care of it. Can you make fish head soup?”

“I… Swordmaster, I can’t.” Gu Xiu stored the fish demon in a storage ring, looking a bit helpless.

Celestial Realm fish head soup?

He had never tried it.

“Is that so? Well, that’s a shame. Find someone who can make it later.’

The flying boat continued to move toward the last direction.

Su Yang returned to the interior of the flying boat and beckoned to the Thunder Mark Deer.

The Thunder Mark Deer obediently approached.

Su Yang rubbed its head.

“Not bad, very obedient.”

Su Yang continued wielding his sword with satisfaction.

The Thunder Mark Deer blew out two breaths from its nose and lay down to the side.

The last destination wasn’t far from here.

After about half an hour, the flying boat once again arrived at the location sensed by the Will of All Beings.

This time, it was within a deep mountain.

Following the guidance of the heavenly path, Su Yang found the exact location. It was a cave.

Sensory perception told him someone was inside with a level two ranks above him. Realm: IV15

Sin: Iv4

A person?

A demonic cultivator?

Curious, Su Yang entered.

The presence inside the cave felt familiar to Su Yang.

“Zombie? Zhao Shi?”

After careful observation, even though the facial features had changed, Su Yang recognized who the person was.

Wasn’t this the village chief he saved in Baiyan Village back then?

How did he end up on the path of zombies now?

Recalling carefully… he had burned all those zombie corpses back then, so there shouldn’t have been any anomalies.

Zhao Shi, who had been asleep, also opened his eyes when he sensed the aura of a living person.

“Lord Su…,” Zhao Shi’s voice was hoarse, and a chilling aura emerged from his

mouth.

“Can you tell me what happened after I left?” Su Yang asked calmly.

“What happened?” Zhao Shi smiled, “As you can see, I gained the power to longevity.”

“Just… at some cost.”

“Lord Su, if you leave now, I can pretend I never saw you.”

Zhao Shi’s smile faded, and he gave a kind-hearted reminder. He was very confident in his current strength, an unprecedented power.

“Although I don’t know what happened, it’s clear that you’ve taken the wrong path.”

Su Yang shook his head and turned to leave.

Behind him, vast sword intent enveloped Zhao Shi. The once smugly smiling Zhao Shi was instantly wiped out, not a speck of him left. Now, there shouldn’t be any unexpected occurrences, right?

[Will of All Beings +4]

The last fragment the heavenly path sensed emerged and entered Su Yang’s sword.

At this point, the heavenly path’s condition was restored to one percent.

It was time to deal with the famine in Qingzhou.

Despite doing a lot along the way, it had taken Su Yang less than an hour in total. Quest: Famine in Qingzhou

Level: IV37

Requirements: Solve the food shortage and drought issues affecting the people in one state.

Rewards: 3700-37000 Will of All Beings

Su Yang had observed how quest rewards increased.

There was no significant pattern, but he had a lot of tasks at the moment and had summarized the reward ranges.

Within Level 10, single digits; within Level 20, rewards under 100; within Level 30, rewards under 5000; within Level 40, rewards under 50,000.

The highest level 100 task gave 500,000 Will of All Beings, so tasks within Level 100 offered rewards under 500,000 Will of All Beings.

Regarding the famine in Qingzhou, Su Yang had spoken with Xia Xuan.

They had sent food over, but the Qingzhou overlord, the Bai family, intercepted it.

From Qingzhou’s city officials to the county-level officials, many of them were Bai family members, and much of the transported food was lining their pockets.

The people could drink thin porridge at best and not starve.

When Su Yang had passed through, he had spoken with a Four-Direction

Inspector from Qingzhou named Shen Yunfei, who was a trustworthy person and a spy inserted by Xia Xuan..
