Chapter 122 Sword Master!
Chapter 122 Sword Master!
"When did it start?"
"We've only been doing this for a few days, and I noticed it," Maria said.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Ash asked.
Maria rolled her eyes at Ash and said, "Why should I tell you? If you knew, you would definitely humiliate me like you did today. When you hit me today, you deliberately pointed that way."
Ash chuckled and said nothing more.
"But if you really want Sister Ye Lin, you have to be careful." Maria hugged Yaxiu and said, "Her Majesty the Night is a virgin goddess, so I'll let it go. But if you really want to do something to her, you will definitely be punished by God."
"You make me sound like a sex-hungry ghost." Ash rolled his eyes, "I'll just have sex with any woman I see."
"Haha." Maria sneered, totally disbelieving what Ash said.
What to do when a woman is disobedient? Of course, beat her with a stick.
Ash pinned Maria down and had another hand-to-hand fight.
Time passed slowly again. Regardless of worldly troubles, Ash continued his life between two points. During the day, he read books in the library and arranged for his second body to learn spells. At night, he learned the sword skills given by the principal.
His learning skills also increased rapidly.
{Achievement: [Master of Learning IV] achieved, reward: Upgrade any learning skill once.}
Reward retention——
After flipping through the last book in his hand, a message popped up in Ash's eyes:
{Achievement: [Read 16 Books] Achieved, Reward: Achievement Points*/Inherent Skill: [Theory of Learning]}
[Principle of Learning]: The more books you read, the stronger your spirit and soul will be.
Ash naturally chose [Theory of Learning]
The moment [The Principle of Learning] solidified, Ash felt that his thinking speed began to increase rapidly again.
When the growth rate slowed down, Ash glanced at [One Mind, Multiple Uses] and found that the number of threads had reached 21.
This is much more useful than [The Way of Action].
Yaxiu nodded. As [Yingtian] was locked, his body was growing all the time. The little benefit brought by [Way of Walking] was already dispensable and became useless.
But it's not over yet.
{【Read 1 Books】and 【Travel Miles】link, reward: Divinity*}
"It's actually divine, that's good. After all, even if it's a reward of a growth-type inherent skill, it won't be of much use to me. After all, [Yingtian] has already maxed out in this aspect."
After being slightly surprised, Ash accepted the reward.
"It will be time to go into seclusion in two or three days."
Ash thought to himself, because in two or three days, the two new unique skills will be locked.
Ash began to stay completely in his dorm.
{Unique skill: [Body of All Things (renameable)] has been locked.}
[Body of All Things]: You can transform into anything and possess the inherent abilities of that thing.
The first thing to lock onto is the unique skill upgraded from [Elemental Spirit].
Ash was not too surprised to face the unique skill with a name, because the inherent skill [Elemental Spirit] must have been upgraded by someone, as there were records of several people in history who had it.
Since it has been upgraded, the corresponding unique skills must have been named, so it is not surprising that it has a name.
Ash summoned his second body for an experiment, then frowned, because the things he transformed were a little weaker, and only things he had seen before had a strength close to the original.
"So I still have to research it."
Ash shook his head. This skill cannot be said to be useless. It can only be said that its strength depends on accumulation, because changing things can be combined. If it is possessed by a person with profound knowledge and broad horizons, its strength will definitely be extraordinary.
Ash can now only be considered as knowledgeable, after all, he did not read a hundred thousand volumes of books in vain, but unfortunately his knowledge is not broad. From the time he recovered his memories to now, he has only worked in three places in depth.
Well, it doesn’t seem so.
Ash suddenly thought of something and began to control the transformation of his second body. Soon a round object appeared in the courtyard.
It ignited spontaneously without wind, and then an explosion like thunder erupted in the courtyard.
Looking at the small pit in the yard, Ash touched his chin and said, "Tsk, I didn't expect it could really turn into a TNT bomb."
And most importantly, when Ash looked at the second body that had only lost a tumor, he seemed to have found his own unique way of playing.
Another day passed, and the second unique skill, which was also the skill that Ash was most looking forward to, was locked.
{Unique skill [Kendo (renameable)] has been locked.}
[Kendo]: Positive and negative merge into one, all swords become one.
Looking at the unique skill with the old name, Ash raised an eyebrow. Is it the teacher's skill?
Ash felt it was quite domineering that he didn't change his name.
The unique skill began to take effect, and Ash felt as if countless inspirations were bursting out in his mind, and the sword skills he had recently learned were colliding.
[Achievement Points: 700-》680]
In the pure white space, twenty-one Ashes were brandishing swords, practicing, and sparring. Hundreds of sword techniques and nearly a thousand sword skills were displayed among them.
Day after day, month after month, the twenty-one Ash gradually became only one.
He performed a set of sword skills on his own. His two swords were round and parallel to each other. As he moved, he moved like a dragon or a snake, not bound by any object.
{Learning skill: [Unnamed] has been acquired.}
{Learning skill: [Unnamed] has been acquired.}
Below is a lot of merged information, Sun Breathing, Thunder Breathing, Sword Drawing, Unparalleled Swordsmanship. All breathing methods, swordsmanship and sword skills have been merged into the two new learning skills.
After coming out of the pure white space, Ash fell asleep.
In the dream, Ash allowed a small feathered serpent to draw away the fatigue in his soul.
After regaining his spirits, Ash named this sword technique he created [Heaven and Earth Sword], and the accompanying breathing method [Heaven and Earth Fetal Breathing].
[Sword of Heaven and Earth]: The commander-in-chief of Heavenly Swords, the melting pot of Earthly Swords, two swords running in parallel, reenacting Heaven and Earth, the two swords become one, and Heaven and Earth are restored.
[The Fetal Breath of Heaven and Earth]: Heaven is the father, Earth is the mother, and new life begins.
Ash used the reward reserved by [Master of Learning].
[Wei Ye] reluctantly kicked Ash into a small wooden house.
An old man slowly walked out of the wooden house. When he saw Ash, he was stunned. He sensed a similar aura from him.
"Long time no see, teacher." Ash saluted the old man. He was the old man who was suspected to be the Sword God that Ash met last time.
"Teacher?" The old man was puzzled. He had no memory of the last time.
But seeing that Ash called him teacher, the old man gladly accepted it: "What do you want to learn from me?"
"I would like to ask the teacher to help me perfect a set of swordsmanship." Ash said.
"Perfect your swordsmanship." The old man nodded, "Show me how to use it."
Ash performed as he was told, and the old man watched from the side.
When Ash finished performing the technique, the old man shook his head slightly and said, "I can't teach you anything about this. Your mark is too obvious. If you join mine, it will only harm you."
Ash didn't say anything, he knew the old man might have something else to say.
The old man pondered for a moment and said, "I have seen that what you lack now is accumulation. I will give you my accumulation."
The old man took out a plain iron sword and waved at Ash, signaling him to attack.
Ash attacked with his two swords.
Ding ding dang dang, the sound of fierce fighting suddenly rang out in front of the cabin.
The old man fended off the attack with ease, and discussed with Ash how to combine sword moves.
No one knew when this battle would end, but the day continued to shine until Ash was suddenly kicked out.
'Cheapskate. '
Ash complained that he had just perfected his sword moves when [Great Cause] kicked him out.
In the dream, Ash took the sword and practiced the perfected [Sword of Heaven and Earth].
There are ten moves in total: One sword has no beginning, divides heaven and earth in two, three realms are endless, four symbols hold up the sky, five mountains hold down the earth, six elements are all solved, seven steps are within reach, eight locks are all opened, nine stars connect the moon, and all directions are destroyed.
'From now on, I will just have to continue to fight and use this as nourishment to grow my profound knowledge. Then, by unifying this, I will be able to sublimate my own [Sword Domain].'
Ash thought to himself.
He once again used the reward reserved by [Master of Learning], and this time his target was [Fetal Breath of Heaven and Earth].
On the battlefield filled with corpses, Ash saw the teacher that Great Cause had assigned to him this time, a very unfriendly teacher.
The man with bloodshot eyes stared at Ash, and without waiting for Ash to speak, he rushed towards Ash, using blood as his weapon, which changed in his hands.
Not only that, Ash felt that his blood was also showing signs of being aroused.
Is he from Khorne's side? Or is he the former Khorne?
Ash looked at the man who was coming to kill him, suppressed all those random thoughts, and rushed forward with his sword.
The two of them fought each other like wild beasts.
But the beast Ash still had the energy to observe the other party's breathing.
The wounds gradually increased and healed quickly, and the mud beneath the two men would ooze out blood if they stepped on it casually.
In the dream, Ash suddenly opened his eyes, and boundless murderous aura surged out.
{Inherent skill: [Killing Heart] has been solidified.}
[Heart of Killing]: Killing flows into the blood, and the fighting instinct increases significantly.
Ash calmed down and glanced at the panel. It was a pleasant surprise. After all, his original intention was to perfect [Breathing of Heaven and Earth], and [Heart of Killing] was a surprise.
And most importantly, Ash looked at the blood skills surrounding [Heart of Killing], [Thirst for Blood], [Bloody Hands], [Blood Fight]. There was a faint aggregation phenomenon between them, but he didn't know why they didn't aggregate together.
After a brief feeling, Ash knew why, as some of his skills had not been adequately enhanced.
After taking a nap, Ash woke up from his dream and continued to add some points.
[Achievement Points: 680-》678]
This time it is the perfect [Heaven and Earth Fetal Breath]
In the pure white space, Ash practiced swordsmanship while breathing, quickly consuming his previous strength.
{Inherent skill: [Sword Qi of Heaven and Earth] has been solidified.}
[True Sword Fighting Qi], [Flame Sun Fighting Qi], and [Cang Lei Fighting Qi] were merged into [Heaven and Earth Sword Qi].
{Inherent skill: [Heaven and Earth Sword Vein] has been solidified.}
[Unparalleled Sword Vein], [Flame Sun Sword Vein], and [Cang Lei Sword Vein] were merged into [Heaven and Earth Sword Vein].
With only two achievement points consumed, Ash transformed his basic foundation into that of the [Heaven and Earth Sword].
[Achievement Points: 678-》663]
This time it was a battle. Ash spent achievement points to fight against the projections of famous sword masters and sword masters in history.
The secret of [solar and lunar eclipse] is understood.
[Achievement Points: 663-》646]
The secret of [Blue Sky and Blood] is understood.
[Achievement Points: 646-》628]
The secret of [turning the world upside down] is realized.
[Achievement Points: 628-》611]
The secret of [The Shift of Stars] is realized. [Achievement Points: 611-》597]
The secret of the universe is understood.
[Achievement Points: 597-》557]
Comprehend the super mysteries of [Reverse: Heaven and Earth Return Together] and [Positive: The World is Beautiful].
[Achievement Points: 557-》555]
{The inherent skill · [Flame Sun Sword Pattern] has been changed, and the inherent skill · [Heaven and Earth Sword Pattern] has been solidified.}
[Achievement Points: 555-》550]
{Inherent Skill: [Heaven and Earth Sword Embryo] has been solidified.}
[Tiger Thunder Body] and [Heart of Flame Sun] were merged into [Sword Embryo of Heaven and Earth].
[Achievement Points: 550-》545]
{Inherent skill: [Heavenly Soul and Earthly Soul] has been solidified.}
[Pojun's Soul] and [Yanyang's Soul] were merged into [Heavenly Soul and Earthly Soul].
[Achievement Points: 545-》540]
{Inherent skill: [Harmony between Heaven and Man] has been solidified.}
[Thunder], [Crushing Power], and [Windless Barrier] were merged into [Harmony between Heaven and Man].
At this point, Sword Master's previous foundation was completely changed.
Ash opened his eyes. His molten gold eyes were now sharper, and just looking directly at them was enough to pierce someone's soul.
Ash looked at the current panel and felt that it was still a little too complicated.
'I need a top-level body-building technique to unite the soul and body, and also completely merge some inherent skills.'
After a little thought, Ash came up with a target: the Heavy Dragon Empire, a country composed almost entirely of warriors.
There are top-level body-building techniques over there, which are so effective that even extreme skills such as the immortal body and the indestructible body can be combined.
'After solving it, you can cross the river to the east and complete the achievement of the Giant of Water.'
This world is a sphere, which Ash has learned from books, so the distance between the east and west poles is not as far as crossing the world, just need to cross a sea.
Ash began to experiment and gained new inherent skills. There is nothing much to say about [Sword Veins of Heaven and Earth] and [Sword Patterns of Heaven and Earth], they are all amplifications.
[Sword Qi of Heaven and Earth] inherited all the characteristics of the previous fighting spirit: burning, destruction, bleeding, sharp, and as long as he wanted, the sword energy of heaven and earth could also generate some common elemental characteristics, such as the freezing of ice, the paralysis of thunder, the heaviness of the earth, the lightness of the wind, etc.
However, if you want to generate special characteristics such as destruction and bleeding, you need to hone it yourself.
In addition, it can be determined that the three powers of [Three-Phase Power] refer to special powers such as characteristics and special effects, because he can add up to three characteristics to the sword energy.
[Sword Embryo of Heaven and Earth] is an inherent skill that greatly improves all basics, including the soul.
[Heavenly Soul and Earthly Soul] are inherent skills for improving the quality of the soul. His [Multiple Uses of Mind] has also been moderately improved due to these two skills, and the number of multi-threads has reached 27.
And the effects of Heavenly Soul and Earthly Soul are more than that.
Ash looked at himself sitting cross-legged on the bed. His soul had left his body and he saw his physical body in front of him.
He felt it carefully and found that he could survive in this form for more than a day.
This means that he may be able to do things like possession in the future. The most important thing is that even if his brain is cut off, he will not be considered dead as long as it regenerates within a short period of time.
[Regeneration of Broken Limbs] We have to find a way to get it.
The last one is [Harmony between Heaven and Man], an inherent skill used purely in combat. It can make each of his swords gain the help of the power of heaven and earth, and make him stronger as he fights.
The form in which the power of heaven and earth is manifested can also be affected by his will, such as thunder, fire, crushing effects, shock effects, etc. Under the influence of the [Three-Phase Power], he can also use three at a time.
He temporarily stopped his retreat and found Maria to pour out his heart to. After playing for two or three days, Ash went into retreat again.
He wanted to make a final push and completely install the Sword Saint.
[Achievement Points: 540-》490]
{Learning skill · [Unrivaled Sword Intention] has been upgraded, inherent skill · [Unrivaled Sword Soul] has been solidified.}
Ash's soul left his body and looked at himself now. His soul had completely turned into a sword.
However, as he thought about it, his soul body turned back into human form.
[Achievement Points: 490-》450]
{Learning skill · [Heaven and Earth Sword] differentiation, learning skill · [Heaven and Earth Sword Domain] has been acquired.}
[Heaven and Earth Sword Domain]: Expand the domain. Within the domain, the power of all your skills will be greatly enhanced. The power of skills that do not belong to you will be greatly weakened. The current range of the domain is one thousand meters in diameter.
'How is this range increased?'
Ash closed his eyes and felt it, relying on his understanding of the concept of sword, which is authority.
"Then it depends on kendo."
Ash looked at the [Sword Dao] that was devouring the [Unrivaled Sword Soul]. As it devoured, he felt that his own domain seemed to be strengthening.
Ash looked at the last message.
{Achievement: [Sword Master!] Achieved, Reward: Face the "Sword" once.}
Face the "sword" once?
Ash raised his eyebrows. He knew without thinking that this "sword" must refer to the conceptual "sword".
Do you want to use it now?
[Intuition] I don’t have any feeling. It seems that it doesn’t matter whether I use it or not.
After thinking about it, Ash decided to keep it. He decided to find a treasure that could temporarily improve his understanding by a huge margin, eat it, and then go see the "Sword".
Ash stood up and clenched his fists. He was now at the pinnacle of mortals. Even though he was at the maximum level, his challenge coefficient could still be maintained above 10.
But his desires go beyond that. He wants to kill a demigod before he becomes a demigod, and then pull down an evil god and kill him after he becomes a demigod.
It is not as easy to compete for the throne of God with a group of people as it is to compete with one person.
There are five more directions to improve combat power now;
1. Upgrade the unique one to super level 10, which is the artifact level;
2. Obtain top-level body-refining techniques and integrate all inherent skills related to the body;
3. Upgrading inherent skills. In addition to physical skills, there should be three unique skills that can be generated;
4. Let the second body take office as a Dharma Saint.
5. There is still room for improvement in learning skills such as fighting spirit and sword intent.
Ash felt like he was itching to cut something to test his strength.
But there were no powerful monsters in the Green Forest, so Ash finally spent an achievement point to summon a projection of a swordsman to fight him.
The Wind Dragon Swordmaster, a swordmaster with the perfect bloodline of a golden dragon, is considered a low-end version of Ash today.
In the pure white space, a dark golden dragon man holding two swords in one hand and a blue dragon man holding a big sword confronted each other.
Waving his dark golden dragon wings, Ash instantly killed the blue dragon man.
The two swords merged into one, and where the sword tips passed, faint black cracks appeared. Those were cracks in space.
This is [One Sword Without Beginning], the ultimate stabbing attack.
The blue dragon man raised his sword to block, but even though he used his sword skills to absorb the force, he was still blown away hundreds of meters.
With a step, Ash appeared in front of the Wind Dragon Sword Master in an instant.
This is [Seven Steps Within Reach], the ultimate sprint.
The two swords were misplaced to the left and right, and the Wind Dragon Sword Saint's stance was broken.
This is [Dividing the Heaven and Earth into Two], the ultimate horizontal slash.
A green circle of wind suddenly came out of the Wind Dragon Sword Master's body and hit Ash, but Ash dodged this move in an instant.
This is [the Three Realms do not stay], the extreme of avoidance.
Seeing that it was not working, the Wind Dragon Sword Master simply opened his mouth and spit out hot dragon breath towards Ash.
Ash raised his sword to block, and the sword emitted a gleam of light, decomposing the dragon's breath.
This is [Six-Pointed Solution], the ultimate in parrying.
After breaking the move, Ash raised his two swords like Titans holding up the sky. The Wind Dragon Sword Master tried his best to parry, but was still knocked away by the sword.
This is [Four Symbols Supporting the Sky], reaching its highest point.
The dragon's wings struggled, and Ash once again stood above the Wind Dragon Sword Master, slashing down with both swords.
boom!
The entire pure white space shook, as if a huge mountain had crashed into it.
This is the [Five Mountains that Guard the Earth], which is extremely powerful.
"Ang!" The Wind Dragon Sword Saint, who had been suppressed and beaten, roared angrily and actually unfolded his sword domain.
The green field instantly enveloped Ash, and countless wind swords slashed towards him.
Ash did not use the sword domain. He wanted to see if he could kill the Wind Dragon Sword Saint without using the sword domain.
The sword intent scattered in all directions, shattering the sword intent contained in the wind swords that were chopped down, and those wind swords immediately dissipated into the breeze.
Chain patterns also appeared on the scales on Ash's body, and as the chain runes broke, his momentum rose again.
This is [Eight Locks Unlocked], a life-and-death move.
Taking the step of [Seven Steps Within Reach], Ash once again rushed to the front of the Wind Dragon Sword Master, and his two swords stabbed at him like a meteor shower.
This is [Nine Stars and the Moon], the ultimate combo.
The Wind Dragon Sword Master was also famous for his swift swordsmanship. Facing Ash's attack, he regrouped and quickly counterattacked.
The power of heaven and earth quickly accumulated in the sword moves, causing layers of waves.
After feeling that the power of heaven and earth had accumulated enough, Ash suddenly swung his two swords and chopped down with force.
[All ten directions are destroyed], this is the moon, and it is also the extreme of attack!
Boom!
The Wind Dragon Sword Master retreated rapidly, so fast that it even caused a sonic boom.
Yaxiu took a long breath and once again took the [Seven Steps Within] step to catch up with the Wind Dragon Sword Master.
The two swords swung, and the sun and the moon followed.
Mystery: [Eclipse]
boom!
A deafening roar sounded in the pure white space.
A huge gash appeared on the Wind Dragon Sword Master's body, deep enough to reveal the bone, and one could even see the beating organs through the body, but even so, Ash did not give up.
Secret: [Blue Sky and Blood]
In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, and blood dyed the entire pure white space.
clang!
After a brief sound, there was a thud, and a heavy object fell down. It was the head of the Wind Dragon Sword Saint.
Ash put away his sword and glanced at his mouth, thinking that the setting was a bit weak.
Fortunately, one achievement point can support the Sword Master's ten projections, and you can set the strength yourself, so losing one point is not a big deal.
Ash continued to choose the Wind Dragon Sword Master as his sparring partner to help him control his strength.
After ten times, Ash had a rough idea of his own strength.
The challenge level is 800, which is considered a watershed for him. He is confident of winning if he meets a newly appointed Grandmaster-level professional. But if he meets someone like the old thief, who has many tricks up his sleeve, it will be very troublesome and he will most likely lose, unless he has power that is naturally nemesis to him, such as a follower of the evil god.
Achievement points: 449, Divinity*1
Asking for a monthly ticket!
Thanks to [Zhu Xian Mortal] for the 100-point reward
