Chapter 1046: Principle of sword and saber (1)
The principle of sword and principle of saber is demonstrated by these two using their hands and their feet.
It is not hard for them to master all kinds of moves since at their level they could even master the laws of the world.
Loki hack through all the attacks that Sasha could dish out on him. His limbs easily evade any life threatening attack, and his entire senses is alert.
Of course Sasha did not intend to kill Loki.
But all of her attacks are lethal.
The only reason she uses all of her powers and stimulated her killing intent is simply because she knows Loki could take it.
If Loki truly wanting to kill Sasha, Sasha would die. But if Sasha truly wanted to kill Loki, the best result would be him suffering heavy injury and not dying
Thus, Loki held back, and Sasha unleashes all. But even under such attack, Loki eyes seems to be able to see every attack that Sasha executed
He is fearless and his attack could not be broken easily. His mind stays in focus, as his attack contain variety of changes.
Sasha truly felt like she is facing a saber. When Loki hacks, the air would be split apart and something would get cut.
If he could use the worldly energy, one could only wonder the damage he could have done. Sasha also notices that her pace is slowly being controlled by Loki moves.
Loki uses his hand embodying the principle of the saber. He is mindful of using his hand, and his footwork is also in tandem with his movement.
Even though Sash physical prowess is a tad higher than Loki, Loki compensate this with his technique.
When he thrust his right hand in a stabbing motion, his attack and strike follows his right wrist, pushes on the attack even more powerful, guiding naturally, like following some rhythm of nature.
Only she could see this intricate details in every move of Loki.
Outside of the dome, even though the one hundred people created the dome, even they could not keep up with the speed of the battle between Loki and Sasha.
But even though Loki uses his right hand most of the time to execute his attack, his left hand is not left alone aimlessly.
If she deflects and there is an opening, the left hand would then strike.
In the clash, she is already had been injured by Loki left hand a few times.
When she is cut by the left hand, dep gashes would appear on her skin and it felt like she is cut by some hot knife.
Loki respond to every attack that Sasha executed by changing his hand. His hands are like sabers, quickly deflecting any incoming strikes and blows.
Sometimes his foot would also deflect the attack and he even uses it to attack, the sharpness is as sharp as a real saber and even surpasses it.
A stone that is hurl toward Earth with the speed of light could create large crater that could induce an extinction event.
Though Loki attack did not reach the speed of light, when it surpasses the speed of sound, one could only imagine the destructiveness of such attack
His hand moves like a saber, and the saber moves like it was in the shadows, akin of a fierce tiger
There is a principle in the saber, sacrifice yourself for the saber
The meaning of this principle is to charge without concern for your own safety. It is fierce, domineering and imposing.
That is how Loki could break every single sword attack that Sasha had executed while at the same time pushing her with every clash.
Moves in the shadow could also be interpreted as moves in darkness, another principle of the saber that Loki had understood.
The meaning is simply to take advantage of the opponent position by attacking the opponent on the sides that the opponent is not paying attention to.
Akin to a fierce tiger, mean to boldly go forward, mustering all of your courage and only then could you take advantage of the opponent gaps.
This kind of method is actually would be perfect to use against spear user.
But it is even more lethal when it is used against Sasha as distance means nothing for a Disk Formation levelers.
At least in the distance of a few hundred kilometers, it is nothing for a Disk Formation leveler. It would only take a few seconds to travel that distance.
Before the expansion of the world and before the energy become denser, for some Disk Formation leveler, it would only take them half a second to travel that kind of distance.
As for Sasha, she is pushed around but she herself is not easy to defeat. She uses her hands and feet like a sword.
Out of all the weapons she has, she mostly uses her sword. When she swings her sword, white flash will flash and a life is taken. But, of course such method could not be used toward Loki who seems to understand the principle of the saber almost like he had learned all there is about sabers.
Still, even though the barrage of attack from Loki, she still manages to hold on, her movement is as supple as a dragon.
If Loki shows the principle of the saber in his attack, then Sasha demonstrate the principle of the sword in her attack
Spear is the dragon of weapons, saber, the tiger of weapons, and sword is the phoenix of weapons
Spear strength lies in directness, saber strength lies in fierceness and the sword strength lies in using angles.
Right now, as they could not use worldly energies, the principle that they understood while executing attack become the only way to determine the winner and loser of this battle.
Loki attack is fierce, his footwork enables him to always be at the right time, at the right place to position his attack.
The shine of the saber blinds and the wind of the saber roars. And while there is no saber in Loki hands and feet, there is his saber intent there
They do not have to fight like in a wuxia stories but it did not mean understanding toward technique is useless.
As their body itself could be considered a weapon, they could imbue their understanding of weapons and its principle toward their organs like Divine Comprehension levelers could imbue Laws in their attack
Loki use of the saber principle in his attack is ingenious and masterful.
Although each of his attack has the ability to chop down a mountain and cleave the earth, he truly treated his hand and feet like sabers, as it does not rotate to cut with both edges of the saber.
Only by doing things like this, he could unleash such powerful saber intent from only using his hand and feet
At times, it is the back hand become the saber front. Other times, it is the front, changing in various ways, birthing countless possibilities.
But it also has some drawbacks. Sacrifice yourself to use the saber. This is one of the principle of the saber
As such, when Loki attack, it is like a tiger unable to turn its head while attacking
It lacks the capacity of the sword’s edges to move in all directions.
As such, even though she is pushed back, as they exchange blows by the hundreds in half a second, she began showing of able to divert the attack and slowly recovering her own pace of attacking and defending
Her hand is like sword. And as such sword intent swirls around her hands and feet. It was truly like she is wielding a sword
Her sword, which is her hand, twirls the attack of the saber with no definite pattern. The principle of the sword is demonstrated and executed
To one side, the sword sharp attack flashes, yet the body of the attack is hidden away.
The edge of the sword is keen and sharp, like a Black Dragon Swings Its Tail, her left foot moves, her body follows, the sword draws and arc, the sword tip pointed to the target, the roars of the dragon could be heard as she slashes the attack of the fierce saber akin of a berserk tiger.
The saber pushed forward and she moves again, her left foot extend only a step toward the left, her right foot does not leave its position.
The saber deflected, the sword moves up and down, left and right, reverse and forward, guiding the berserk nature of the saber, the flexibility of the sword trying to tame the saber, like a dragon coaxing the tiger
Her attack become difficult to guard against, yet Loki charges forward. Sacrifice the body. This is the principle. Boldly moving forward and give a strike.
Flexibility and perseverance, this principle seems to clash with each other moment the sword and saber clashed.
Sasha moves is dazzling, fluttering and agitating, each of her attack become unpredictable.
Her sword attack full of tapings and stabbing, absorbing and thrusting the sword seems to alternate continuously, full of stealth and concealment when hidden, roaring with energy when unleashed.
