Strongest Offline Cultivation-Chapter 154 Friendship and Brotherhood

154 Friendship and Brotherhood

Fu Chen closed his eyes and slowly focused his consciousness inside his sea of consciousness. There were several things stored inside his sea of consciousness and it wasn’t just his soul.

Even the Supreme Sword Heart Law was stored inside it in the form of a book. He walked up to the book that was beneath a sword. When he tried to touch the book, the sword trembled.

But, after he touched a book for a moment, the sword slowly calmed down. He pulled the book in his arm and turned the page. The first page was about Sword Energy.

Sword Energy is the energy formed out of Sword Will. Without one’s Will to cultivate a sword Dao, a person can never achieve Sword Energy. It wasn’t that difficult since all you need is just the Will.

But, even so, very few people actually had the Will to cultivate the Sword Dao. Because Sword Dao was considered one of the hardest Dao to cultivate.

Among very few of them, only a handful of people can accomplish anything in the Sword Dao. That’s how hard it actually is. For Fu Chen, it was completely thanks to the random lucky chances and his system.

Otherwise, he would’ve never comprehended Sword Intent. Normally, it required a person to have Sword Heart and Sword Energy to form a Sword Intent.

But when he dug deeper into Supreme Sword Heart Law, it seemed like this method completely ignored that basic rule.

‘Sword Heart is nothing but the manifestation of Sword Will. Those who can’t even manifest their Sword Will have no right to be called swordsmen. Only those who hold the Sword and manifest their Will naturally are allowed to create Sword Intent.’𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮

When Fu Chen read those words, his heart was shaken even more. He truly believed that Supreme Sword Heart Law’s path was completely different from other paths.

But, he still didn’t understand one thing. Why would this Law call Sword Heart Law when Sword Heart was basically skipped over?

He didn’t know whom to ask this question. He quickly remembered Lily but his thoughts were frozen when he Ysla’s words.

‘Be careful if you truly want to reveal such a secret to others.’

Now, he wasn’t sure if he should tell them about this secret. He could be making a mistake by telling her but he could also be making a mistake by not telling her.

He thought for a moment and spoke “Lily, do you think most of the Swordsmen in this world are False Swordsmen?”

“What do you mean?” Lily gave him a strange look and asked.

“This book says that only those who can manifest their Sword Will naturally be considered swordsmen.” Fu Chen replied.

Hearing his words, Lily gave him a strange gaze and asked “Are you sure that was written in the book? Believe me, I have read over thousands of books but I have never heard of something like that.”

“It’s true. I have no reasons to lie to you. This book clearly says that a swordsman must manifest his Sword Will naturally.” Fu Chen nodded his head and argued.

“I am not sure if that is possible but it surely is insane. I mean, how can a swordsman naturally manifest his Sword Will? If it was that easy, there would be many swordsmen.” Lily shook her small head and replied.

“But, think about it for a moment. There aren’t that many swordsmen in the first place. What if the Sword Dao is even harder than we thought? What if this is true?” Fu Chen asked.

Hearing his words, Lily felt a bit strange. She never thought about it before but now that she thinks about it, it felt like she didn’t understand the world.

“If what you are saying is correct, then there is only one kind of person who can truly cultivate sword. No, there should be multiple ones but only if you are extreme.”

Hearing her words, Fu Chen looked at her with a strange gaze and asked “What do you mean?”

“Do you know if you kill three of them, your parents, and everyone close to you with your sword to train your sword dao, your sword strength will reach an unimaginable level.” Lily explained.

“I will never do that. I will never raise my sword against people close to me.” Fu Chen’s expression turned extremely cold as he replied.

“I know you won’t. I am just making an example. If you are able to go to such extremes, then you will be able to upgrade your swordsmanship to a whole new level.” Lily sighed as she flickered her feather and spoke.

Fu Chen was startled hearing that. He didn’t expect that to be the case. He thought for a moment and said “Wait, you are telling me if I just go to the extreme then I can upgrade my swordsmanship?”

“You aren’t considering doing that, right?” Lily’s heartbeat suddenly skipped as she asked.

Chu Yan and Wu Kong rolled their eyes. After living with him for a long time, they knew what kind of person he was from the core. Even if he was corrupted for his strength, he would still not cross some boundaries.

Fu Chen also rolled his eyes and said “Didn’t I just say I wouldn’t do that?”

“I know but you might change your mind.” Lily said.

“There is one thing that I will absolutely not do. It is to harm my own people. But, what I want to do is to protect them. What do you think would happen if I take this to the extreme?” Fu Chen asked.

Lily froze for a moment and her eyes widened.

“Wait, you mean you want to take this kind of responsibility to the extreme? Are you sure?”

At this moment, Chu Yan interrupted.

“Wait, wait, what exactly are you guys talking about? What do you mean by taking responsibility to the extreme?”

Both of them turned their hoards at him and smiled. Lily was the one to explain though.

“He is trying to say that as long as he bears all the responsibility to his heart, he can cultivate this feeling to the extreme. For example, if you get injured, then he would face some kind of side effects but if he keeps you guys safe, then his Swordsmanship will only continue to grow.”

Hearing her words, Chu Yan and Wu Kong instantly appeared in front of him. Both of them raised their fingers at him and shouted.

“You are not allowed to do this. If you ever think of doing this, our friendship ends right there. We are friends. We are brothers. If we face something, we face it together. If we suffer, then we suffer together.”

“Su Ling might be your lover. But her death hit us exactly as it did to you. So, please, please don’t do this stupid shit.”

Hearing Chu Yan almost begging like that, Fu Chen suddenly felt a wave of emotion. He wrapped his hands around them and pulled them into his embrace.

“Alright, brothers! I won’t do it. We are brothers, right? If we suffer, then we suffer together. If we laugh, then we laugh together. We will find other ways to increase our strength.”

At this moment, Lily was watching them silently. Actually, this is the first time she has seen a human and monsters so close in her life. In her entire life, humans and monsters are in a constant fight against each other.

Even if there are people who do not want to fight like that, they are forced to. Now, they don’t need to. Fu Chen represented their will. These three represented the Will of the people who do not want to fight against each other.

Seeing them like that, Lily couldn’t help but almost believe that they could bring peace between humans and monsters. Because that shit needs to be ended. In her eyes, the battle shouldn’t be between humans, monsters, devils, or spirits.

It should be against the Darknights. The creatures from the Darknight Continent. The deadliest creatures who had killed millions of Tiandao Continent people.

But, it was easier said than done. After all, the war between humans and monsters has continued for ages and it will surely continue even more.

Unless Fu Chen uses some extreme methods or some out-of-the-box methods that she has never thought of, there is no way he can actually accomplish his dream.

Of course, he wasn’t going to say this out loud. After all, the dream is something that motivates people to do more. And, in this case, it was motivating Fu Chen to give outstanding performance.

Bang! Splash!

Suddenly, a sharp arm struck the back of the boat and fell back into the ocean.

“What? What was that?” Xue Le screamed from the back. She was just watching them with a smile on her face just a minute ago and now her face had drastically changed.

“Oh no…”

Lily’s expression also drastically change when she saw that arm from Xue Le’s shoulder.
