Chapter 104: The Unsolvable Killing Game, The True Sword Intent
【Starting from the Apocalypse, Ruling Alone for Ten Thousand Ages】【】
Rebirth!
This has always been a secret in Fang Shi's heart; the reason he could achieve his current accomplishments.
It all relied on rebirth.
Besides the advantage of foreknowledge.
The experiences before rebirth forged his own abilities.
Fang Shi, who walked out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, possessed perseverance and determination that ordinary people lacked.
When facing combat and crises, he had a calmness that ordinary people could hardly reach.
Even now, hearing the Heart Demon expose his greatest secret, Fang Shi's expression did not change.
"Is that so? Since you are drooling over the mystery of rebirth, can you tell me what rebirth actually is?"
"This matter has troubled me for a long time."
The Heart Demon sneered, "Do you think I would tell you?"
"This is the deepest secret of the multiverse."
"It is a mystery that even those eternal existences would be tempted by."
"What qualification does a tiny mortal like you have to listen?"
Fang Shi smiled, "You are right; if it were a true secret, I indeed would not have the qualification to hear it."
"But, have you ever thought that the so-called secret is merely a dream?"
"A dream that predicts the future; isn't that very disappointing to you?"
"I believe that as long as it does not involve time, you would look down on all other rules."
"If you pay a price and still do not get what you want, isn't that paying the price in vain?"
Fang Shi already understood; the Heart Demon's meaning was very clear, it intended to make a move.
And it would be on Blue Star, making a move under the decree that forbids gods from harming mortals.
Although Fang Shi did not quite understand why the Heart Demon must return to Blue Star to truly strike at him.
He understood that Blue Star must involve the key to his rebirth.
Otherwise, wouldn't the Heart Demon have just made a move in the previous world directly?
Why go to such great lengths to rush to Blue Star and endure the punishment of the decree to make a move?
"Haha, you speak very correctly, but I still do not intend to tell you."
"You will die with such regret."
A stream of energy transferred from the Heart Demon to Fang Shi's body.
"You have obtained pure soul power; soul power conversion in progress..."
"You have obtained 18759 experience points, 1875.9 survival points."
"Do you wish to consume 55000 experience points to upgrade to level 11?"
The familiar data stream flashed directly through Fang Shi's consciousness.
Before he could make a choice, the data stream began to change.
"An unknown error has occurred..."
"The profession you chose to upgrade is Qi Refiner."
"Foundation Establishment begins!"
"Because you have committed too many killings in a short time, your killing intent is too strong; the Heart Demon has entered your body. Only Then Can Succeed in Foundation Establishment by defeating the Heart Demon!"
"The Heart Demon has entered your body; please quickly drive the Heart Demon out of your body, or kill the Heart Demon; otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Fang Shi's consciousness recovered again, and he appeared in a dark world.
Except for his own soul body emitting Bai Guang, there was nothing around.
There was neither divine sense nor magic power.
This absolutely was not his own sea of consciousness!
But strangely, Fang Shi actually felt that this current soul body had magic power, divine sense, and physical strength.
Just like a truly real body.

【Starting from the Apocalypse, Ruling Alone for Ten Thousand Ages】【】
"How is it, Fang Shi, did you not expect that I could even change the attribute panel?"
Before Fang Shi's eyes, the Heart Demon's soul body appeared again.
It looked exactly the same as him,
but was pitch black and deep.
So black that even the dark space could highlight it.
"What is there to be surprised about? I guessed long ago that you would make a move, I just did not understand the specific method."
"And you could not change your appearance; you insisted on using my appearance to fight me."
The Heart Demon laughed, "I do not want to either, but the rules are like this."
"When that day comes and I hold the Heart Demon Dao in my palm, I can have whatever appearance I wish."
Fang Shi also smiled, "I think the greater possibility is that my appearance is too precious."
"To tamper with the attribute panel, you absolutely paid no small price."
"You have no remaining strength left to change your own appearance."
The Heart Demon sighed, "You are right. It was all to deal with you."
"I faced the crushing pressure of two Great Laws, consuming ninety-nine percent of my Origin."
"Yet even so, I had to adapt to the rules here and transform into a Heart Demon to fight you."
"Precisely because I possess the Heart Demon Dao, I barely managed to find a loophole."
"Therefore, Fang Shi, tell me, can you not die right now?"
"I promise that after I ascend to the peak, I will definitely resurrect you."
"In your memories, I sensed despair and loathing for the Apocalypse."
"As long as you die, you will no longer have to endure this pain."
"Why do you stubbornly persist in living in this world? Is it not better to simply die?"
"If you cannot let go of Blue Star, I will reshape the vast lands of Shenzhou then and resurrect every living being that has died."
"Everything! Including those before the Laws transformed."
The Heart Demon spoke with sincere earnestness, his every gesture seeming to inspire trust.
"Heart Demon, you truly play these little tricks at all times."
"You could have spoken properly, yet you studied my psychology to craft a specific posture."
"You wish to lure out my trust."
Fang Shi spoke calmly; he never believed the Heart Demon would fulfill his promises.
If the Heart Demon were truly a good thing, why would the Multiverse avoid it at all costs?
Countless Daoist canons and Buddhist sutras recount the terror of the Heart Demon.
Especially in the art of deceiving the human heart, it has reached the extreme.
"By the way, where is this place? Why can I sense nothing of the outside world?"
Whoosh!
The Heart Demon's figure vanished into the pitch-black space.
"Fang Shi, I can tell you: this is the Mind, your Mind."
"It is a place you cannot leave."
"Do not try anymore. Fight me properly; if you win, you will naturally be able to leave."
When the Heart Demon vanished, Fang Shi vanished as well.
He used the Bai He Sword Art, his body merging with the wind as he fled toward the distance.
Only a fool would fight a Heart Demon.
Fang Shi had already perceived that the Wind Intent on the Heart Demon seemed comparable to his own.
The Wind Intent is an intent that enhances all wind-based abilities.
For the Bai He Sword Art, it not only extended the duration but also amplified its inherent effects.
Movement speed received an additional threefold boost.

【Ruling the Myriad Ages Starting from the Apocalypse】【】
Fang Shi still did not know what trump cards the Heart Demon possessed.
But it was certainly not simple; fleeing immediately was the priority.
"Fang Shi, you are truly foolish. Can running solve the problem?"
"Due to your greed, my abilities have been strengthened once again."
"Under the regulations of the Heart Demon Dao, the third Heart Demon's abilities will undergo a qualitative transformation."
Although the Heart Demon had vanished, he did not pursue Fang Shi.
Instead, he let Fang Shi flee, watching as a cat plays with a mouse.
"Hehe, I increasingly feel that my second victory over you was because you held back using the Dao."
"It was simply to wait for this moment, a moment I cannot resist."
"Truly a deep calculation!"
Fang Shi knew this was the most dangerous moment since his rebirth.
The Heart Demon's abilities far surpassed his own, and it even possessed his memories and understood his thoughts.
Any tactical schemes or deceit were as transparent as glass to the Heart Demon.
Especially now, the Heart Demon still stood in place.
Making not a single move only deepened Fang Shi's unease.
What ability exactly had the Heart Demon enhanced to possess such confidence?
Was it an ability related to movement speed?
"Fang Shi, you are right; it was indeed my calculation."
"But the essence stems from your own greed. Without greed, how could you have defeated the second Heart Demon?"
"However, precisely because of your greed, I will give you a great surprise."
"Let you truly witness what is called true Sword Intent!"
Fang Shi's heart startled; he found it somewhat incredible.
He had clearly comprehended the Intent; did he not yet master Sword Intent?
The Heart Demon seemed to know Fang Shi's thoughts and continued, "Is what is in your mind Sword Intent?"
"You are merely utilizing the support of the Intent to swing your sword recklessly."
"I do not know who passed down the inheritance to you; how unethical, misleading you into using the Intent."
"Moreover, you are also foolish and naive, truly believing these are Sword Intent."
"This makes my guidance much easier. Do you feel that cultivating the Intent along the method I taught you is very easy?"
"Easy means it is correct; I truly want you to comprehend the Intent."
"Without the Intent, how could I unleash true Sword Intent upon you?"
"A Sword Intent that you cannot resist!"
A green sword-shaped energy began to appear where the Heart Demon had vanished.
It was so solid, just like a real long sword.
"Sword Intent is combining one's own Intent and one's own magic power with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, then projecting it out through the sword; this is Sword Intent."
Fang Shi was still fleeing; his voice came from the depths of the mental world.
"I have listened to you speak for a long time and watched your demonstration; it seems to match what I thought."
"It is all gathering wind-attribute magic power and spiritual energy, then amplifying it through the Intent before striking out."
"Even a Level One Intent provides a doubling of amplification."
"This percentage-based amplification becomes more terrifying the further you go; it truly deserves the title of Sword Intent."
"If you do not demonstrate something new soon, you are just bragging."
Fang Shi was also willing to cooperate with the Heart Demon in conversation; he did not believe a Level Ten life level could comprehend any large-scale techniques.

【Dominating Eternity Since the Apocalypse】【】
As long as I run far enough, the Heart Demon cannot catch me.
Even if it can catch up, the time delayed along the way...
... will give me more opportunities to think about how to deal with the Heart Demon.
"Wrong; what you call amplification is merely the amplification of the Intent."
"True Sword Intent is another thing entirely; it is also a realm capable of enhancing attack power."
"Just like the firearms that appeared in later generations of Shenzhou: the Intent is the gunpowder, and the Sword Intent is the firearm structure."
"The more powerful the gunpowder, the more fierce the bullet's power; but similarly, the more reasonable the firearm structure, the more the bullet's power will increase."
To be honest, recently I've been using the app to chase updates, switching sources, with many narration voices... available on both Android and iOS.】
"Only when the two complement each other can they unleash extreme attacks."
As the Heart Demon finished speaking, the green long sword in the air began to undergo changes.
Voom!
A faint hum resounded throughout the mental space.
This was the vibration of the long sword; no, this was the sound of the long sword.
The green long sword seemed alive, actually emitting its own sound.
Swish!
Immediately after, the long sword, like light, shot straight toward Fang Shi.
Fang Shi's heart startled; he had already sensed it.
The speed of this long sword's movement was incredibly fast, at least more than double his own.
How is this possible!
The pitch-black mental space has no resistance; I have been accelerating all the way and have already reached ten times the speed of sound.
Yet the long sword's speed is still double my own.
And as time passes, the long sword is still accelerating, closing the distance between the two sides.
Most importantly, this long sword is so solid.
During its movement, the energy does not decay at all.
Fang Shi had already realized he simply could not dodge.
He no longer possessed the body of an immortal; his agility had returned to normal.
The long sword's acceleration will get faster and faster; when it catches me, it will surely exceed thirty times the speed of sound.
I will be hit no matter what.
As for blocking?
An attack at thirty times the speed of sound; Fang Shi could not block it at all.
Moreover, the long sword is formed of energy; the damage reduction of the Bai He Sword Art is completely useless before it.
"Wind has a wind roar, rain has a rain sound, thunder has a thunder rumble, lightning has a lightning crack."
"Sword Intent should have its own voice; this is the first realm of Sword Intent: Sword Intent has speech."
"Then, farewell, Fang Shi!"
