"Of course, it wasn't going to be that easy."
Zheng Xiu took a few breaths, a look of frustration on his face as he stared at the longsword in his hand.
He was attempting something novel, but it had failed. Back in the World in the Painting, he had used the Painter Path to manifest Zheng Baimei's Heaven and Earth Sword Intent. He wasn't sure if it was because of the unique nature of Golden Traits or some other reason, but the experience had taught him that Traits weren't immutable. That was why he was now trying to make the Golden Traits truly his own.
Otherwise, the Heaven and Earth Sword Intent could only be unleashed in a Life and Death Struggle. The Restriction was far too great.
He was very familiar with Miracle Techniques. Restrictions and rules were necessary, but it didn't necessarily have to be a "Life and Death Struggle." He could adjust the "Restriction" by setting new "rules."
