Chapter 421 Goals
\'Is this what it means to comprehend Martial Intent?\' Mira thought to herself.
She felt like she had boundless energy, but at the same time, she also felt like there was no need for \'energy\', almost like if as long as she had the will to fight, then she would be able to fight.
That\'s the feeling her body gave her, but it makes sense. Through that enlightenment, Mira had essentially turned her body into a weapon, and since Weapon Endowment is heavily reliant on one\'s willpower, it would make sense that after ingraining Martial Intent into her body, she\'d be able to keep fighting as long as she had the will to.
While this was amazing, Mira could immediately spot the downsides to Martial Intent, and that is cultivation.
At Mira\'s current cultivation, as long as she didn\'t face severe injuries and overused her Qi, she could fight nonstop at full power for at least a few days. However, as her cultivation grows, her body\'s natural stamina grows as well.
Therefore, once Mira reaches the Nascent Soul Realm, she probably won\'t have much of a need for her Martial Intent.
Now, that\'s not to say it\'s completely useless because that couldn\'t be further from the truth.
For one, now that Mira has learned Martial Intent unless someone is able to block her from using her Intent, her physical strength can\'t be reduced from its current state.
Secondly, now that she has learned Martial Intent, her bodily foundations are perfect. If she wants to learn a Movement Technique, other weapons, Weapon Techniques, other forms of martial arts, or pretty much anything that uses her body, she can learn them without much issue.
That\'s a benefit of having perfect control over one\'s body. All she has to do is learn the right meridian pathways to channel her Qi, and she shouldn\'t have any problem learning Techniques.
Of course, she\'ll still have to practice, but it won\'t take nearly as long.
The last reason why Mira\'s Martial Intent isn\'t useless is because it\'s an Intent! There isn\'t much else to say other than that. No matter what, an Intent is still an Intent, and this is especially so for the one Mira just learned.
Mira stopped introspecting and finally turned around to see a large crowd of girls huddled behind Maria, staring at her in astonishment. Even Maria wasn\'t much different.
"Congratulations, Mira, on learning your first Intent!" Maria said with a smile as she approached Mira.
"Congratulations on your breakthrough, Leader Mira!!" The girls behind Mira all shouted at the same time.
Mira nodded with a light smile. She was in an exceptional mood right now as she didn\'t expect such an enlightenment to come so soon.
And who better to share this excellent mood of hers other than Maria?
Without warning, Mira appeared next to Maria, picked her up in a princess carry, and quickly made her way to their room, only leaving these words behind to her subordinates.
"I\'m going to go attend to some personal matters. I\'m pleased with your progress so far, but I think you all could do better. In a few days, I\'ll prepare a report about everything I noticed over the last few days. We\'ll go from there after that."
With that said, Mira took Maria back to their room, and the two shared an extremely passionate night.
The next day, Mira spent her time relaxing with Maria while planning out her future. She now has a perfect grasp of her physical strength, used the abilities that each of her tails has to offer, and has even learned Martial Intent.
However, aside from that, Mira still has much to learn, but right now, she feels like her scythe is her only weak point.
Her body is plenty strong for someone at her cultivation, the quality of her Qi is several stages above what it\'s supposed to be, her tails are all crazy powerful, and she can even use her martial arts at a high level now.
Therefore, what she should focus on now is catching her scythe skills up to speed. Other than that, she needs to learn more about the other elements she can use now.
Those are her two immediate goals, but Mira knew that there were plenty more areas she could improve on. Her blacksmithing is a good example of this. It\'s been a while since she\'s even thought about a side occupation, and after the battle with that young man, she felt like she should pay more attention to them.
Not just blacksmithing, but all of the side occupations!
She realized that after the battle with that man, she needed more trump cards, preferably one-time-use items.
While she could probably commission the items, Mira didn\'t like the thought of that. Doing such a thing is basically giving away her secrets and trump cards to the public. No, not just that, but if someone wanted to make and sell her ideas to the public, then wouldn\'t a bunch of people have trump cards similar to hers?
p
Mira also wanted to find out what her Internal Body Cultivation Technique is. Then there\'s also the Water Body Transformation and Magma Dragon Body techniques that she could cultivate.
Those are just a few of the things Mira felt like she should focus on for the immediate future.
Luckily she can passively cultivate, or else she would have to put that on hold for a while.
Now that she\'s got a decent idea of what she should focus on in the future, she immediately went to work and began training with her scythe!
