Volume 2 That World Chapter 35: A Magic Knife
The blood-colored crystals floated in the air, emitting an alluring red light.
Qi Ji walked over quickly and reached out to touch it gently.
The fog text appeared.
[Magic Sword Style 1: Instant: When the sword is unsheathed, it will attack with the simplest and most extreme speed. ——Swordsmanship is ever-changing, the simplest is to draw the sword, there are many ways to draw the sword, this is the fastest one]
The red crystal turned into a streak of light and flew into Qi Ji's brow.
In a trance, he became the swordsman who had been lame since childhood and was thin and sickly.
He carries a deep blood feud, and his mother's desire for revenge has completely distorted her mind and she has lost her humanity. She only wants to make him a god of vengeance.
Since he was just one year old, when he couldn't even speak, his mother locked him up in a dark little hut to practice swordsmanship.
He has average talent.
Only one sword technique is practiced, which is the most basic sword drawing, chopping, and sheathing.
However, he had to practice using the sword tens of thousands of times every day for seventeen years...
He entered the martial arts world at the age of eighteen or nineteen, just for revenge, and no one in the world could defeat him with a single sword.
When he was about to kill his enemy, he was told that he was fundamentally an outsider, a poor child who was replaced.
The blood feud had nothing to do with him.
He doesn't want to kill anyone, but he has trained himself to develop a magic sword that can kill with one strike.
You are invincible, but you cannot save the life of your loved one.
Even the target of revenge since birth is nothing but a moon in the water and a flower in the mirror.
The god of vengeance became the clown of fate.
He disappeared sadly, and when he reappeared twenty years later, he had seen through everything and came out only for justice.
His sword also became a sword of justice.
People respectfully call him the Undefeated Sword God!
Qi Ji suddenly woke up, and then he found that he had learned that extraordinary sword-drawing technique.
He still couldn't help but recall the life of the lame swordsman. He couldn't help but sigh and felt inexplicably sad.
Suddenly, several words appeared in front of my eyes again.
[Tower of Transcendence: Final Level of the Fierce Stage, Transcended]
[Tower of Transcendence: Absolute Steps, has been opened]
[Secret Records of the Past Life, now open, those who transcend can choose to enter]
Before Qi Ji could figure out the meaning of these words, a large fog emerged and instantly submerged the entire world.
…
The next morning, Qi Ji opened his eyes and suddenly sat up.
He had an unstoppable smile on his face. The most desperate enemy since the appearance of the Tower of Transcendence was defeated by him.
The huge psychological pressure was released, and his heart, which had been hanging for the past few days, was slightly settled.
He immediately opened his panel and took stock of his gains.
[Transcendence: Qi Ji]
[Transcendence: 365]
[Spiritual: 100/100]
[Authorization: Secret Records of the Past Life]
[Nourish the Meridians Method·Awakening (Demon Subjugation) (100/300)]
[Skill: Magic Sword Style: Instant (0/50)]
[Skills: Flying Sword Style - Remnant (18/50)]
[Skills: Supreme Art (6/50)]
[Skill: Master's Strike·Mastery (4/30)]
[Skill: Wuming Sword Kill (cannot be upgraded)]
[Skill: Jianma's knife bag (cannot be upgraded)]
…
After quickly browsing the concise and clear panel, Qi Ji saw three key points.
The first is that he added a new "authority", the content of which is "Secret Records of Rebirth".
He tried to visualize this permission function, but found that there was no response. It seemed that it was not a function for him to use in reality.
After thinking about it for a while, Qi Ji decided not to worry about it for the time being. Anyway, this function would naturally appear when he entered the Tower of Transcendence at night.
Then other notable changes are the transcendence and newly acquired skills.
There are 365 points of transcendence. Should they be used to increase skills?
Qi Ji stroked his chin and pondered, feeling a little undecided for a moment.
He thought about it, got out of bed first, and while washing up he carefully felt the increase in the degree of transcendence on his body.
The result made him feel somewhat relieved despite his disappointment.
The degree of transcendence of 365 points only increased his increase by less than 10% compared to the original degree of transcendence of 215 points.
Obviously, the extra degree of transcendence was restricted just like before in the inner realm.
For the time being, let's assume that the part exceeding 200 is converted into one-tenth of the improvement, which means that he now has 165 points of transcendence that can be used to increase his skills.
However, he can also keep these transcendence degrees, because although he can only fully exert the power of 200 points of transcendence degrees in the outer realm now, in the Tower of Transcendence, he has broken through the "ferocious level" and opened up a new level "absolute level". Who knows, in the absolute level, the transcendence degrees will not be restricted.
What to do is really confusing.
While washing up, Qi Ji walked back and forth thinking, and finally decided on an idea after finishing washing up.
His thinking is compromising, and people in Daxia like to compromise.
He thought that according to the obsessive-compulsive thinking of the Tower of Transcendence, which gradually opened up the limit of Transcendence degree in stages of "100", it was very likely that the Transcendence degree opened in the next stage would also be "300". Then, as long as he retained 300 points of Transcendence degree, he would not lose too much of the Transcendence degree bonus to himself.
The only question left, then, was which skill the transcendence should be used to increase.
"Try to keep 300 points of transcendence first. I can have 65 points of transcendence to improve my skills." He muttered to himself.
After a brief inventory, there are five skills that can be improved, namely the Meridian Nourishing Method, the Magic Knife Style, the Flying Sword Style, the Supreme Technique and the Master's Strike.
Among them, after using the last three for a period of time, his "proficiency" has naturally increased to a certain extent, but it is still far from reaching the level of advancement.
Obviously, technical skills can be developed through practice and actual use.
However, the method of nourishing meridians did not make any progress at all, even though he had almost never stopped practicing this skill since the day he acquired it.
It seems that this skill is not something that can be understood by just using it, at least it is not something that someone with Qi Ji's aptitude can explore.
I have just acquired the magic sword, so it is normal that I don’t have proficiency in it, but this is definitely an extremely powerful killer move and has great value for improvement.
The value of Fei Tian Yu Jian Liu is no less than that of a magic sword style. It is estimated that future improvements should be able to further strengthen his swordsmanship foundation and may even allow him to acquire new unique skills.
Qi Ji thought about it and decided that the above three were the ones that were most worthy of improvement at the moment. As for the Supreme Art and Master's Strike, it was not that there was no value in improving them, but his degree of transcendence was limited. And considering that these two skills were similar to passive skills and could be gradually improved with his training and fighting, he should not be in a hurry.
Good steel should be used on the blade.
The first thing Qi Ji wanted to improve was the Nourishing Meridians Method. He was very envious of the next stage of the Nourishing Meridians Method, and thinking about it he couldn't help but open the instructions of the Nourishing Meridians Method.
[Nourish the Meridians - Awakening (Demon Subjugation) (100/300): The spirit strengthened by the "Ming" technique can be exerted through "Awakening". For every 100 points of transcendence, one branch of skills is comprehended. After comprehending three branches of skills, it is promoted to the next stage. (The next branch of skills that can be awakened is "Formless")]
As long as you fill up another 100 points of transcendence, you can awaken the next branch of skills, called "Formless".
Judging from the strength of the demon-slaying skill, this "Formlessness" must be a very powerful skill.
Unfortunately, the points are not enough! Qi Ji gritted his teeth and gave up, but he was ready to prioritize improving the meridian nourishing method after killing the next enemy in the tower.
Then, the goal is very clear, either to improve the magic sword style or to improve the flying sword style.
Before upgrading, Qi Ji planned to compare the effects of the two skills.
Qi Ji was already familiar with the effects of the Flying Sword Style and did not need to review them again.
What needs to be tested is the effectiveness of that "magic sword".
He found the scabbarded single-edged sword that Yu Chengen had placed beside him, held the scabbard in his left hand, gently held the handle with his right hand, and began to mobilize his body's memory.
The next second, a familiar feeling spread throughout my body.
His wrists, arms, shoulders, waist and back... the muscles all over his body were telling him how fast his attack would be this time.
Quietly, Qi Ji's hand holding the handle of the knife moved slightly!
The room suddenly lit up.
A flash of knife light passed by!
The next second, the knife returned to its sheath.
Qi Ji stood up straight and let out a sigh of relief.
Boom.
In front of him, the candle on the table was touched by the air flow he exhaled, and the upper half suddenly fell to the ground with a muffled sound.
So powerful! So fast! But still not as fast as the lame swordsman!
Qi Ji didn't think about anything else and immediately filled the transcendence into a magic sword.
[Transcendence: 365 → 315]
[One-style magic sword: Instant (0/50) → One-style magic sword: Instant (50/50)]
[This skill is upgraded to - Magic Sword Kill (0/100)]
The mysterious seed blossomed in his mind and transformed into an even more powerful skill.
Qi Ji naturally knew the effect of the skills after advancement.
The effect is straightforward and simple.
The first-level magic sword increases the sword drawing speed by 50% by selecting the simplest and most extreme sword drawing action.
The second-level magic sword uses special techniques to stimulate the tendons, bones and muscles, increasing the efficiency of sword drawing speed to 100%!
He immediately took up his stance again and aimed at the candle that was already half burned out!
Draw the sword! Chop the sword! Put the sword away!
One-stroke magic sword: kill!
In an instant, a flash of knife light, faster than before, flashed like lightning!
The candle that was struck did not move at all, and it seemed as if it had not been separated at all because it was struck so quickly.
After putting the sword back into the sheath, Qi Ji nodded with satisfaction. This sword move was at least 70% as good as that of the lame swordsman.
With this sword-drawing technique, combined with the strength of his demon-subduing state, his sword-drawing speed will be even faster than that of the lame swordsman!
After all, his basic speed and strength were already better than that of the lame swordsman.
After the experiment, Qi Ji resisted the urge to look at the tempting 300 points of transcendence and began to practice the meridian nourishing method with his eyes closed.
We must do both things well.
While there are extraordinary factors in the outside world, practice more meridian nourishing methods to attract Qi to strengthen your physique and spirit.
No need to fight, no need to struggle, just sit quietly, breathe, and meditate.
You will gradually become stronger.
Safe, reliable and efficient.
This is a deal that will never lose money!
If the skills such as the magic sword and the flying sword style are the skills to protect the way.
The method of nourishing the meridians is the foundation of spiritual practice.
More than an hour later, Qi Ji opened his eyes.
There was a gentle knock on the door at the right time.
"Qi Ji, are you up? Come down and have breakfast!" Qin Zijin's crisp voice sounded.
It’s a new day again!
