Legend of the Great Sage

ul bladesmanship, how can you go without taking a little risk?” The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower’s voice was reeking of ill intent.

“Let me think about it.”

Li Qingshan shut his eyes, and his mind became as serene as the ocean.
He used the spirit turtle to divine, but the result left him a little surprised.

“If you decline, you better just send me back to the Armoury of War and Chaos! I definitely won’t fight for you! I can accept a weakling, but I can never accept a coward!”

“I can accept that, but on one condition.”

“What condition?”

“If I don’t reach the end of my path as you wish I do, then you’ll accept my control.
You’ll fight for me without causing any trouble!”

“I respect the courageous, and I respect the strong even more.
None of the past masters of the Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End died because of trouble from me,” the Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower said.

Li Qingshan opened his eyes and smiled.
“Then let’s try it!”

“Alright.
Grip the hilt firmly and open your mind!”

The figure of the blade spirit appeared once more, half-transparent this time and intangible.
She overlapped with Li Qingshan’s body and gripped the hilt.

Li Qingshan sucked in a deep breath and opened his mind.

Suddenly, the Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End produced a strange thrum, and a ripple spread through his sea of consciousness.
His soul began to tremble with it.
He and the blade gradually formed a strange resonance as his sea of consciousness and the space of blade intent overlapped slowly.

In a daze, Li Qingshan saw the past masters of the blade wielding the Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End against various powerful foes, unleashing profound bladesmanship of unpredictable flexibility.
He ravished with joy inside.
This was the blade intent he wanted to inherit!

“You’re celebrating too early.
You haven’t seen anything yet!”

The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower’s lips curled into a smile.

“One With the Blade, A Madman at Path’s End!”

The flower-like blade suddenly bloomed furiously.
Gorgeous petals upon petals inverted and wrapped around Li Qingshan’s hands as complicated patterns extended along his arms, covering his entire body in the blink of an eye.
It was identical to the patterns on the blade.
His skin shone with a metallic lustre as if he had become a part of the blade.

Li Qingshan shuddered inside.
He felt himself overlap with the figures of the past masters of the blade, and his sea of consciousness turned into a space of blade intent.
Great confidence surged through him. I can also unleash a technique like that!

The Frenzy Flower Blade of Path’s End was no longer so difficult to wield anymore.
He understood every single curve and pattern on it.
The blade moved with his will, producing afterimages upon afterimages.
It seemed like he was merely swinging it around pointlessly, but only after magnifying it thousands of times was it possible to make out the countless specks of dust in the air that had been gently sliced apart by the blade.

Cutting apart mountains was easy, but cutting apart dust was not!

The former only required strength, but the latter required subtle and wondrous bladesmanship!

“How’s that? Have you grown stronger? But this is nowhere near enough.
I will completely unleash all of the potential within you!”

The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower laughed madly.
Basically all of the asura that had died from madness had died to this move.
She really had not gotten in their way as they fought.
Instead, she helped them fight, except they would definitely approach the end of their path after the hysterical dance of madness.

“Sure!” Li Qingshan said.

The Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower’s laughter halted.
“How’s this possible!?”

“What’s so impossible about this?”

Li Qingshan smiled.
Turning his sea of consciousness into the space of blade intent did cause an extremely great mental burden.
The furious blade intent left behind by the past masters was enough to drive even Asura Kings to madness.
His murderousness also swelled, while his face became extremely twisted with viciousness, but his scarlet eyes remained clear and deep.

The results of the spirit turtle’s divination had left him surprised because there was unexpectedly no danger at all!

“Why haven’t you gone mad?” the Blade Spirit of Frenzy Flower asked in surprise.

“Probably because I’ve grown accustomed to the madness and the frenzy a long time ago!”
