I will eventually become a divine being through accumulating constantly

```

All of them were down with one strike each.

Those close to Xue Jing followed, Li Ge, his master Li Qi, as well as various senior brothers and sisters, and Wu Youqing with Miao Miao Ning Fengwan.

The swings of Xue Jing's blade avoided these people, only striking down others who appeared repeatedly.

The small garden was a mess, with flowers and plants chopped into even smaller fragments filling the air, and the pungent scent of plant sap spread all around.

Not knowing how long he had been chopping, Xue Jing suddenly stopped his movements.

In front of him, three new figures appeared.

They were his family members, his parents, and his sister.

Xue Jing's blood-soaked pupils instantly regained their clarity as he sheathed his sword and turned around.

The mountain of corpses and sea of blood before him vanished, returning to reality.

Looking at the bare patch of garden and the scattered greenery on the ground, Xue Jing couldn't help but click his tongue.

"Guess I'll have to talk to the residents' committee later about compensation..."

He pinched his chin, feeling a bit embarrassed.

Then he opened his panel to take a look.

[In the process of practicing your sword skills, you've had a sudden enlightenment of the Asura Blade's true essence, Weapon Strike Experience Points +667]

[In the process of practicing your sword skills, you've had a sudden enlightenment of the Asura Blade's true essence, Meditative Visualization Experience Points +689]

[Combat Skills have increased to Lv3 (290/800)]

Could the gains really be this substantial?

Xue Jing was somewhat surprised.

This was the first time he had received so much skill experience outside of actual combat.

"It feels pretty good to have a sudden enlightenment," Xue Jing looked at the keywords prompted by the panel.

"If I can have a few of these enlightenments every day, what's the need to go out and stir up trouble? I could just close the door and train for a few years, then emerge invincible."

However, 'sudden enlightenment' probably isn't something one can seek out.

Xue Jing raised the Crouching Rabbit Sword in his hand and looked at the blade.

It was still covered with plenty of plant fragments and sap.

"Gaining experience points is one thing, but what's most important is the progress in the cultivation of the Asura Sword Intent."

Xue Jing swung his sword, executing the 'Horizontal Blood Shake' maneuver. The Crouching Rabbit trembled and let out a 'clang' sound.

All debris and sap on the blade were shaken off completely.

He then picked up the sword scabbard that was on the nearby bench, twirled the Crouching Rabbit in a flourish, and sheathed the sword.

"But... the artistic conception of the Asura Blade is too extreme, not very liberating."

The Asura Blade, embodying the Asura, attains enlightenment through slaughter, wielding the power to kill all things.

Xue Jing frowned in thought.

"While extremity often means power, it isn't quite suitable for me."

Even his family appeared before him when he was immersed in that state of mind.

If it hadn't been for [Meditative Visualization], firmly holding onto his consciousness, he might've slain his family in the illusion.

"To wield the power of life and death as an Asura, possessing the freedom to slaughter at will, but without the freedom to 'not kill'."

"True power is being able to kill when desired and refrain when chosen."

Xue Jing pondered his own perspective.

"With [Meditative Visualization], perhaps I can transform the Asura Blade..."

Shaking his head, Xue Jing set aside that thought for the moment and then started his daily run for exercise.

A few hours later, Xue Jing paid a visit to the residents' committee on the street, explaining the situation with the garden. Thanks to his good looks, he apologized profusely to the committee auntie, who not only forgave him but even smiled broadly and said he didn't have to compensate.

Nevertheless, Xue Jing insisted on paying for the reparation of the grass, as he was quite wealthy and saw no need to take advantage of such a situation.

...

At nine o'clock in the morning, Xue Jing, dressed in casual clothing and holding the Crouching Rabbit, stood at the entrance of his residential complex, waiting.

With the Lv7 Charm Art combined with the Innate Freeloader Holy Physique Tao Embryo, he received frequent glances from passersby.

```

Many were eager to strike up a conversation, but each time someone tried to approach, they would lock eyes with Xue Jing.

Then, involuntarily, they'd feel a chill in their hearts, a sense of inexplicable fear that dissuaded them from their intention to chat, hurrying away instead.

"The Asura Blade's intent is quite useful in this respect."

A trace of blood surfaced in Xue Jing's eyes as she locked gaze with a beautifully dressed woman in hot pants and a sexy outfit, causing the latter to stiffen instantly and abandon the thought of approaching.

The penetrating aura of slaughter instinctively invoked a fear of death.

Xue Jing did not have to wait long before a large, expensive-looking black luxury car stopped at the curb not far away.

The rear window rolled down, and a pretty young girl with a youthful appearance leaned halfway out of the window, waving at Xue Jing with a happy face, calling out:

"Hey hey hey! Junior brother~ over here~"

Xue Jing smiled and walked over.

When he got close, Zhu Shanying opened the car door, got out, reached out her delicate, boneless hands, grabbed his arm, and pulled him into the back seat.

Then the young girl also got into the car, sat down next to Xue Jing, turned to the driver with a smile, and said:

"Sang, let's go~"

"Yes, miss."

The driver was a woman in her thirties, wearing glasses, looking very cultured.

She glanced at Xue Jing curiously through the rearview mirror, taking a few extra looks at his face, and sighed inwardly.

But she said nothing more, just pressed the gas pedal, and the car started smoothly, made a turn, and headed for North City District.

In the car, Zhu Shanying and Xue Jing sat together.

The faint scent of the young girl lingered at the tip of the nose, but Xue Jing did not pay attention and was instead feeling the cushion of the car seat.

It was soft and very resilient.

"Junior brother, I went to the dojo this morning; they have started renovating, and it was really noisy..."

Zhu Shanying started chattering beside him.

She was dressed in a youthful attire today, with a light purple short-sleeve top and black suspenders shorts, exposing a pair of flawless, smooth legs, and on her feet were sandals embellished with floral decorations.

As Xue Jing usually only saw Sister Zhu in her training garments, he found it quite refreshing.

"I went there this morning and saw Senior Brother Chen."

As she spoke, Zhu Shanying kicked off her sandals, placed her unadorned little feet on the wide seat, sat sideways in a very unladylike manner, then stretched out an arm, hooked it around Xue Jing's neck, half-hanging on him while laughing playfully:

"I heard from master that Senior Brother Chen chased Jiao Hongyuan for half a day yesterday, injured the old man severely, but when he chased him to South City District, a bunch of people suddenly appeared blocking him, and Jiao Hongyuan got away."

Xue Jing felt the subtle friction on his arm and pondered:

"That could be problematic."

Jiao Hongyuan, as the Arena Master of Golden Wind Dojo, was very powerful, and within the Hidden Dragon Dojo, no one besides Senior Brother Meng Boshang could likely deal with him.

Now that Hidden Dragon Dojo and Golden Wind Dojo had become thorough enemies, if Jiao Hongyuan, unashamed, decided to play dirty, avoiding Meng Boshang, and specifically targeted the other Direct Disciples with assassination attempts, it would be troublesome indeed.

Xue Jing himself was not too worried, as he had the Twin Lifes passive to fall back on.

But the other senior brothers and sisters did not have that.

Zhu Shanying shook her head and said, "Master said Jiao Hongyuan's injuries are severe. To protect his Disciple, he was struck through the Meridian Gate by Senior Brother Chen's 'Mystic Art·Vital Point,' and now, even if he doesn't die, he's only left with half a life, so we should not worry."

Upon hearing this, Xue Jing nodded, "That's good."

"Also, Senior Brother Chen, he seems very angry and is planning to join Senior Brother Chen in confronting Golden Wind Dojo to reclaim our pride..."

While listening to the girl's clear and pleasant words, the car entered North City District.

After twisting and turning, they arrived at the gates of a huge manor.

Although Xue Jing had expectations, knowing that the super-rich Zhu Shanying — who could casually gift a twenty-million-dollar blade — must live somewhere impressive, the reality still exceeded his expectations.

He estimated the walls on the left and right sides of the grand entrance to be at least a hundred meters in length. If the width was similar, then this manor covered an area of over ten thousand square meters.

The size, in fact, was not exaggerated.

But this was North City District, where money couldn't even buy a house...

"Hmm, this is the true power of a super-rich girl, what do you think, junior brother? Don't you feel like giving up now?"

As the car slowly entered the manor, Zhu Shanying crossed her arms and lifted her head with a haughty look.

Xue Jing looked towards the lavishly decorated distant house, swallowed, and stubbornly said, "It's alright."
