Chapter 247 - Strength Also Need Studying?
Slowly, Lucas opened his eyes. His black wings flapped, keeping him in the air. Suddenly, an old rough book appeared in front of out of nowhere. His eyes narrowed when he saw the title.
"Origin Heart Sword Technique"
Lucas raised his hand caught the book with his left hand. He didn't know why this book appeared in front of him. And, he doesn't care. All he knows is that he got something that could increase his strength.
Slowly, he landed on the ground and turned around his hand. The sword energy slowly rolled around his palm and formed a sword. It wasn't normal sword energy. Rather, it was a sword intent. But suddenly, he realized something.
He raised his head and looked at his sister and others, saying "Sorry!"
That sword was the path to meet Mike but he took it away from them. Although it improved his Sword Believe and condensed the Sword Intent. He was a little unhappy about himself.
"It's okay! It wasn't your fault. We didn't know it would just enter your body." Jenny shook her head with a trace of helplessness in her eyes. She knew this was their only chance to meet him quickly. But, it is gone.
Suddenly, she noticed a bit of killing intent from Alena. Though it was hidden completely from everyone, it couldn't escape her bloodline powers. And, she quickly noticed her fist clenched as well.
'Tch! I didn't want to lose you. Please don't make that stupid mistake.' Jenny could only pray in her heart. She couldn't interfere in others' decisions but losing Alena would be a bad choice for Mike. That's why she doesn't her to have sex with other guys.
But, she knew it would be hard to control as well. After all, Alena has taken hundreds of dicks and now it has become her habit. She and sunny are two different people. Although both of them have taken hundreds of dicks, Sunny feels a kind of strong pressure and responsibility that keeps her in control.
Unlike her, Alena doesn't feel anything. Her life wasn't changed by Mike. That's why she doesn't have the strong willpower to control that urge. And, that's what Jenny fears. She knew Mike doesn't like members of his pounded by someone else.
Mike hasn't openly stolen and pounded someone's girl. Even those girls in his harem list don't have a boyfriend or broke up with them already. Jenny is worried because Alena won't be able to hide it from her. And, if she makes mistake, Jenny must take immediate action.
That would be terrible for this newly formed family. When Jenny turned her head to Alena, Elizabeth also noticed it. She didn't want to interfere in Mike's relationship that's why she pretty much said nothing. As for Lauren, she was busy asking Lucas.
At this moment, Lucas has not only formed Sword Soul but also condensed Sword Intent. And, his Sword Intent was mysterious. When he released the sword, it turns golden but that's it. It didn't have any elemental capabilities but gold itself is an element.
So, he quickly left his room to check his newly gained powers.
At the same time,
Mike and Zemin were caught off guard by the disappearance of the Origin Sword Heart Technique. Although they successfully got out of the mess due to the sect master's words, they were still confused about that mysterious disappearance.
"Babe, we won't get into the trouble, right?" Mike asked as he looked at Zemin. He still doesn't believe that he could walk out of something like that without any trouble. After all, in world cultivation, people will put the fault on you even if you weren't the one who did it.
Not to mention, both of them were the prime suspect here.
"I don't think we will get into trouble. Sect master had already reassured us. The disappearance of the book has nothing to do with us. And, his words matter the most in the sect. So, even if someone wants to trouble us, they need solid proof." Zemin shook her head and answered.
But, Mike was still unconvinced. He spread his arms and asked "What if they ask us to show our spatial ring? It will be a troublesome matter. You know my spatial ring is unique, right?"
"Don't worry! Don't worry! Nothing will happen. Just start practicing Immemorial Perfect Sword Body Technique. Unlike other sects, you don't have to worry about going out of the library." Saying so, she released her qi and formed a powerful barrier around him.
"This barrier will keep the aftereffect of the attack inside it. So, don't worry about anything else and practice the Immemorial Perfect Sword Body Technique." Zemin spoke as she also sat down next to him and created another barrier around her.
Mike nods his head and started reading the book. It was quite long. He had already anticipated this so he asked Yufei to read the book from the first floor and copy them. Although she can't use qi, she can still use those fighting styles.
Two Days Later,
Finally, he finished reading the entire book while staying at a single place. As soon as he closed the book, he clenched his fist and thought 'I am going to be the greatest scientist in the world.'
'This is fucking infuriating. Why in the world did I come to this world? First, those two books and now this book. Man, no wonder those cultivation novels had half of the novel explaining the cultivation techniques and martial arts.'
'Man! I am seriously not going to practice a new technique. And, I am not going to learn lots of martial art. I directly learn the heavenly rank martial art for one time and it will last for five to six years. There is no way I am going to start from Yellow Rank and move to the Heaven Rank.'
At this moment, Mike was completely pissed about the fact that he had to spend two days in the same place reading a book. Something that he never completed even during his exams. And, that was important for his future.
Although, this is also important for the future. But, he didn't understand who in the world writes the same sentence in five different ways just to fill up the words. After reading those books and this book, he began to doubt whether the author of these books is the same person.
But, Zemin did say these books were created by the founders and it did mention everything unlike in those books.
Immemorial Perfect Sword Body Technique- It was an impressive technique that can create a sword that replaces the dantian. There is no need for extra materials to create the sword. He just needs to understand the Sword Spirit.
And, Sword Spirit is kinda hard to understand. Fortunately, the founder did explain the sword in more than five ways.
'A sword is kendo. A sword is a concept. Sword is cultivation. A sword is a belief. And, a sword is also a weapon.'
Except for a sword being a weapon, he didn't understand what the other four meant. And, once again he had to thank those founders for explaining kendo, concept, cultivation, and belief in five different ways.
Basically, founders said kendo is the origination of swords. Concept way to use the sword. Cultivation is the growth of the sword. Belief is the connection between a swordsman/swordswoman and a sword. And finally, the weapon is a tool to protect your loved ones and kill your enemies.
He respects the founder for bringing equality by mentioning both swordsman and swordswoman. But, he found those sentences were actually a path of the sword.
Origin, control, growth, connection, and utility. These were the challenges a swordsman must accomplish to become a true swordsman. To do so, he must understand what is Kendo?
Kendo is a single-edged sword. That means when the swords were first originated, they were single-edged blades. But, were they? Although Mike had hard time-solving mathematics, chemistry, he didn't have a problem learning history.
He knows the swordsmanship came first. Kendo was derived from swordsmanship and practiced in the modern age. That's why he felt complicated when Kendo was said as the origination of swordsmanship.
But, later he realized this kendo was quite different. This was the kendo of the cultivation world. It suggested the basic flow of a sword. From swing to thrust, from block to attack, and from hard to soft.
It combines four attributes together to form true swordsmanship. Power, Speed, Hard and Soft. A sword is known for its speed. But, without power, that speed won't do much damage. But, a sword needs to be unwavering.
When attacked, it must attack. When defended, it must defend. That means it must have the hard attribute. But, a sword also needs to be flexible to do attack and defend. It might be hard to be used for the attack whenever wanted and for the defenses as one wishes.
But, if it is not flexible enough, it won't make it on time. The hardness makes the sword strong while softness makes it flexible. Speed simply makes it fast. And power makes it destructive. Combing different attributes together, a sword can be destructive, or sharp or defensive, or even moderate.
That's why his first job is to understand these four attributes.
