Chapter 211: The Foundation of the Sword Bloodline

"Lar, pick a sword and start attacking me, I already understand how it works the Sword when using it in an idle state."

That was easy to understand because the Sword Bloodline wasn't meant to stay idle while using it. However, that helped Yale to uncover something vital about the Sword Bloodline that would help him to recreate the Sword Bloodline inside his body without needing to kill members of the Larken Clan for it.

After hearing Yale, Lar picked a sword and started to attack him. At that moment, Yale noticed that she was far stronger than when she battled before due to having her bloodline activated at full strength, but Yale had also turned far stronger since their last battle. Thus, Lar's increase of power wasn't something problematic for Yale even battling with his attention divided with observing Lar's bloodline.

"As I expected. Although the bloodline itself is in the biggest part related to the laws, I feel that there is a clear difference between the legacy bloodlines and other divine bloodlines like the divine beast bloodline, the true foundation of the bloodline. If I am right, the true foundation of the legacy bloodlines is a bit of Condensed Essence, just a tiny bit, but the quality of the bloodline far surpasses others due to that."

Yale didn't know how his past life managed to condense just tiny bits of Condensed Essence to use it as the foundation for the bloodlines because doing that was technically impossible, but Yale also knew that his previous life wasn't someone usual and having been the first on accomplishing some things wasn't completely outside Yale's expectations.

Yale had observed his own Freezing Time Wolf Bloodline, which contained three laws being in theory superior to the other divine bloodlines as the others only contained one law, but the influence of each law in the divine beast bloodline was far smaller than in his legacy bloodlines. In fact, he could barely consider it equal to the Time Bloodline and Death Bloodline if he considered the three laws of that bloodline together plus the capability of natural flying. However, even in that case, it was still inferior to the Sword Bloodline after Yale uncovered its true foundation.

If Yale hadn't obtained the Condensed Sword Bloodline, he would have been unable to understand the true foundation of the legacy bloodlines, nor he would be able to create his own Sword Bloodline.

Moreover, Yale was unable to confirm if his guess were completely correct because he didn't know how the other Condensed Essences felt, so he couldn't confirm if that foundation applied just to the Sword Bloodline or to all of the legacy bloodlines as he had thought.

The bloodlines only used a tiny bit of essence, so even if Liye had only understood the Sword Essence completely, it was still possible that he had used tiny bits of other essences as the foundation for the other legacy bloodlines.

Anyway, Yale didn't want to focus on the other bloodlines at that moment because his objective at that moment was only obtaining the Sword Bloodline.

After an hour of battle, Lar fell to the ground exhausted; she surpassed her limits thinking only to continue the fight to help Yale. The Sword Bloodline was powerful, but overusing it could be harmful.

"You don't need to overwork yourself that much."

Yale used a bit of Time Healing on Lar to help her to recover, but he didn't plan to continue the battle at that moment. After all, the Sword Bloodline was undoubtedly related to the Sword Essence, so even if his guess about the other legacy bloodlines were wrong, it was still dangerous to overuse the Sword Bloodline.

Time Healing was strong, but Yale feared that if Lar over exhausted herself too much for using the Sword Bloodline and ended up harming herself, he would be unable to heal her completely.

Of course, that was also just his guess, but he didn't dare to let Lar try the outcome because he didn't want to sacrifice Lar to be a bit faster in meeting Aiwai again; if he wanted to sacrifice her, Yale would have just used the first method and killed her directly.

Although Yale seemed to be quite cold towards her on the outside most of the time, he cared about her. At least, she had turned into someone who Yale didn't want to be harmed after being together for such a long time.

"Your healing is perfect. I can continue the battle now!"

Yale patted Lar's head which made her stop as she blushed; Yale already knew that it was one of the best methods to made Lar stop, and Lar liked it, so he didn't need to think too much before doing it.

"Stop, it is enough for today. Trying to rush the recreation of the Sword Bloodline won't help me to improve faster, this is a slow process. If you want to battle a bit more, the battle should be without using your bloodline. We can battle again like we usually do after I meditate a bit about our previous battle."

Lar nodded, she didn't mind suffering for helping Yale, but if Yale didn't need it, she didn't like to suffer without reason.

Yale sat and started to control a bit of blood and tried to use his recently acquired understanding to make it work like the Sword Bloodline.

Yale's meditation lasted three hours, and the result was a failure, but Yale already expected that. The first try helped him to obtain experience; it couldn't be considered a slow method if he had managed to accomplish it on the first day.

"As expected this method is so slow. Well, Lar, if you want some normal spar, we can have it now."

Lar was extremely happy to battle again, but she didn't use her bloodline just as Yale requested. Yale used his comprehended Sword Essence in that battle hoping to help Lar to grasp something, but her realm was still too low and comprehending something was difficult to even with some guidance.

Yale's comprehension of the Sword Essence wasn't too high. Thus, the guidance couldn't be compared with the one Liye gave to that guy in that fragment of memory.

That training routine repeated every day, but every time, Yale just let Lar use her bloodline one time until getting exhausted; afterward, she only battled normally.

It wasn't until a month and a half later when Yale finally started to have a bit of success; he had a long way to recreate the Sword Bloodline completely, but at least he had taken the first step.

In that time, Yale had also improved his overall power thanks to the comprehension he had obtained of the Sword Essence which was used in his battles against Lar, but as he expected, he improved a bit more, but that was at slower speed and ended up stopping completely after some time. He would need to obtain some more understanding to obtain another huge boost in strength.

"Name: Yale | Age: 15 | Origin Level: 27 |Origin Points: 6546/6546"

"Vitality: 6612| Strength: 6757 | Agility: 6729 | Intelligence: 7000 | Wisdom: 7000 | Dexterity: 6598"

Yale stopped to try improving his stats after he exhausted the effects of his comprehended Sword Essence because his tiny bit improvements meant nothing compared with those boosts, so he preferred to spend time trying to comprehend some more Sword Essence.

Moreover, he also felt that understanding a bit more of Sword Essence would also help him in recreating the Sword Bloodline, so there was even more motivation in doing it.

However, understanding some more Sword Essence wasn't easier with his current strength even having the Condensed Sword Essence.

Yale's fame had skyrocketed in Sword City in that time thanks to his victory against Selenia; his fame even began to spread in the surrounding towns. He even obtained a nickname due to his display of flying swords using his Spiritual Sense, and his miracles battling against someone who was more than one rank stronger than him.

The nickname he obtained was Sword Mage, and there were already more people who called him by that name instead of Liye which was the name he told in Sword City.

Yale personally liked the nickname because he liked to combine magic with swordsmanship although that wasn't the reason for the nickname because Spiritual Sense wasn't magic. However, most people related Spiritual Sense to the Magus Path, so they ended creating that nickname.
