Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

Everything happened too fast. In a blink of an eye, the jet of the Magnetic Aurora was destroyed. Zen only took a short time to complete the process, shorter than Zachary.

"..." Zachary's jaw dropped. With that short spell, he had experienced so much shock that his senses went numb.

Zen saw that Zachary was spacing out, but there were more Magnetic Aurora shots coming their way. He calmly cautioned Zachary, "More shots of Magnetic Aurora are coming! Watch out!"

Four jets of Magnetic Aurora were hurtling towards them now.

After taking an overwhelming hit on his self-esteem from Zen, Zachary felt chills through his veins and his face became more serious.

When it came to the practice of swordsmanship, it was crucial to maintain the sword heart, hone the sword intent, and be able to resist all kinds of disturbances to do away with any devil inside.

Just now, when Zachary saw the power of Zen, his heart became unstable. If his sword heart was flustered, his sword intent would be impaired affecting the power of the sword. A wavering sword heart was one of the great taboos for swordsmen.

Seeing Zachary recovered quickly, Zen slightly smiled, 'He is, after all, a swordsman practicing swordsmanship. I'm amazed at how fast he can stabilize his sword heart!'

Without another word, Zen put on his serious face in order to handle the jets of Magnetic Aurora.

The Magnetic Aurora shots came to them nonstop and the quantity kept increasing after every wave.

The first wave only came with one shot of Magnetic Aurora; the second one came with two shots; the third arrived with three shots, and so on.

To keep the crystal ball safe, it was vital to disrupt the speed of the Magnetic Aurora.

The Magnetic Aurora was a highly purified energy extracted from polar magic stones. This kind of Aurora was extremely stable and barely affected by external disturbances.

For instance, the dragon intent concealed in the dragon-shaped energy of Zachary's sword was effective in confronting enemies or killing supernatural beasts, but it would not impact the Magnetic Aurora that much. If one wanted to hack a jet of Magnetic Aurora, he still had to rely on his sword intent–or his sheer comprehension of the swordsmanship.

Hence, fighting the Magnetic Aurora was the best way to hone one's sword intent.

Zen and Zachary were hacking at the Magnetic Aurora continuously. They powered it through from the first wave all the way to the fifteenth wave.
