"The so-called millennium-old families are nothing more than worms and dogs!"

Lin Fei shook his head. He was referring to the Saber Saint lineage. Ever since he had sliced the Saber Saint lineage's ship in half with a single saber strike and paid a personal visit to Saber City, he had wiped out the entire Saber Saint lineage.

Regrettably, he only encountered two martial arts Masters, and they were the weakest ones. In front of Lin Fei, they couldn't even draw their sabers.

While Lin Fei's saber intent was indeed formidable, a martial artist with firm conviction and strong willpower could overcome the intimidation of the saber intent and draw their saber for combat.

Unfortunately, the supposedly prestigious Saber Saint lineage, the descendants of the Saber Saint, were unable to even draw their sabers. They had all been reduced to mere worms and dogs and were easily killed by Lin Fei with a single saber strike.

His trip to Saber City also pushed his cultivation progress in the Heavenly Saber Art to 90%. Its progress had increased by almost 30%.

Indeed, Saber City lived up to its reputation. Whether it was saber techniques at the Body Refining perfection level or the Acquired perfection level, there were countless. They had all integrated into Lin Fei's Heavenly Saber Art, enabling it to progress rapidly.

The birth of saber intent in the Heavenly Saber Art seemed not far off. The number of saber techniques that Lin Fei had integrated into the Heavenly Saber Art was already in the dozens. There were too many to count.

However, to generate saber intent in the Heavenly Saber Art, more perfection-level saber techniques were needed. Lin Fei could only continue to move forward.

However, with Lin Fei demonstrating his invincible prowess in Chang City, Jiangyang, and Saber City, his journey henceforth became much smoother. Even saber practitioners were becoming scarce. Almost no one came looking for Lin Fei anymore. Apparently, they had implicitly acknowledged Lin Fei's title of "Number One Saber Under Heaven".

Moreover, even if they were coveting the Heavenly Meridian Pill, those Body Refining martial artists and Acquired martial artists also knew they were no match for Lin Fei. Even in a pure competition of saber techniques, they could not compete with Lin Fei.

As such, Lin Fei continued on his journey for over a month without encountering a single martial artist who had reached the perfection level in saber techniques.

"There's still 10% left in my Heavenly Saber Art cultivation progress. The perfection level saber techniques at the Body Refining stage can increase the Heavenly Saber Art's cultivation progress by 1%. Acquired level perfection saber techniques can increase the Heavenly Saber Art's cultivation progress by 5%."

According to this assumption, innate-level perfection saber techniques should be able to increase the Heavenly Saber Art's cultivation progress by over 10%. That means I don't need to find other martial artists. I just need to find a Saber Technique Master who has reached the perfection level of the innate saber technique.

By then, the cultivation progress of the Heavenly Saber Art will surely reach 100%, thus giving birth to saber intent. But where can I find a martial artist who has cultivated innate level saber techniques to perfection?"

Lin Fei fell into deep thought. The Hidden Sword Sect had the Number One Sword Under Heaven and was filled with master swordsmen. Going to the Hidden Sword Sect, one could certainly find top-tier swordsmen.

Unauthorized duplication: this narrative has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

But in the whole of Great Chang, there wasn't a sect dedicated to saber techniques like the Hidden Sword Sect. Hence, finding top-tier saber masters was difficult.

Lin Fei sat by the river, holding a wine gourd in his hand. He took a sip of the wine. It was a little spicy and strong.

However, Lin Fei had grown to like this feeling. Now, Lin Fei felt a tinge of loneliness in his heart. A kind of "unrivaled" loneliness.

This was not to say that Lin Fei was invincible in terms of strength. He was still far from being truly invincible. At least for now, Lin Fei was no match for those who have reached the Foundation Establishment stage.

Lin Fei felt invincible in terms of saber techniques. He felt lonely in terms of saber techniques.

Back when he started his martial arts journey in the Nine Profound Sect, Lin Fei chose saber techniques, boxing, and lightness techniques. Among them, both saber techniques and boxing generated intent.

But till this day, Lin Fei's saber intent had reached transcendence, even approaching perfection, while his boxing intent remained at Mastery.

Lin Fei was better suited to the saber. Not all martial arts need to be perfected and the strongest.

In Lin Fei's view, any martial art, once practiced to the extreme, was invincible! Even if in martial arts, at the Body Refining, Acquired, and even Innate levels, they were actually weaker than those Qi cultivators.

Lin Fei was a special case. Other martial artists, even Martial Arts Masters, were weaker than those high-level, top-tier Qi Condensation cultivators.

But once martial artists established their foundation and became Martial Saints, it was different. They might even be stronger than the average Foundation Establishment cultivators by a small margin.

This was the result of practicing martial arts to the extreme!

"Perhaps the founder was also this lonely. And the Sword Saint of Hidden Sword Sect three hundred years ago was also as lonely. In this world, who can challenge me in saber techniques?"

As he gazed at the vast river, Lin Fei muttered to himself. His saber techniques, cultivated to such an extent, were nearly invincible. The number of people who could keep up with his pace, or even become his opponent, was very few.

"The feeling of loneliness is uncomfortable. I felt this twenty years ago. So, twenty years ago, I sealed away my saber and went back to the countryside to be an old farmer."

Suddenly, a strong voice sounded in Lin Fei's ear.

"Whoosh."

Lin Fei swiftly lifted his head. With his current five senses, very few people could approach him without him noticing. But this person had intruded into his ten meters radius before he sensed it.

Danger! This was a very dangerous person!

Lin Fei saw the newcomer. It was a middle-aged man who seemed to have seen many hardships. Dressed in the tight clothing of an ordinary martial artist, he looked very ordinary.

However, Lin Fei was very clear. Anyone who could get within his ten meters range definitely wasn't ordinary.

"Who are you?" Lin Fei asked.

"Someone who can debate saber techniques with you."

The middle-aged man replied calmly.

"Debate saber techniques?"

Lin Fei's eyes became sharp. He saw the saber in the man's hand. It was an utterly ordinary looking saber. Even the traces of the passage of time could be seen on the scabbard. It was a bit old.

"It's rare to see someone actively seeking to debate saber techniques with me. Just comparing saber techniques, without using inner power or True Qi?" Lin Fei said.

These days, even when Lin Fei debated saber techniques with others, they didn't really put up a serious fight. Because no one was his match. They could only simply compete in saber techniques.

"Those who practice the saber do it to kill, not for practicing martial arts forms. If they don't fully commit to defeating their opponent and aim to kill, why practice the saber? I am here to debate saber techniques with you, naturally, I will use all means necessary. Debating saber techniques also involves life and death!"

"Whoosh."

The words of the middle-aged man made Lin Fei's gaze incredibly sharp.

"Good, debating saber techniques also involve life and death! Since you came to debate saber techniques with me, you should know who I am."

"Of course I do, 'Immortal Slayer Saber' Lin Fei, your saber slays immortals! Starting from Chang City, you went to Jiangyang, Saber City, defeating all the master saber practitioners.

On the surface, you are fighting for 'Number One Saber Under Heaven'. But in reality, I know you're not fighting for the title of Number One Saber Under Heaven. You are honing your saber intent, hoping that your saber intent can reach perfection. You are testing your saber against all saber practitioners in the world!"

At this moment, Lin Fei was certain. This middle-aged man truly came to debate saber techniques with him. Moreover, he might be an unprecedented top-tier saber practitioner.

A ripple of excitement formed in Lin Fei's heart. That was the feeling of excitement!
