Volume 4: The Winds and Clouds of the Western Blue Sky Chapter 28 Flowing Water Sword
Finally, after a brief browsing and comparison , Qi Ji chose the technique written by a person named Marennia.
It's called [Sword of Flowing Water].
Seeing Qi Ji's choice, the old witch couldn't help but admire him, "You really have good eyesight. You immediately chose the martial arts of this Valkyrie who was once known as one of the strongest 'emperors' on the continent. The Flowing Water Sword is a sword move that is said to be able to fight against real gods."
As she spoke, she flicked her fingers and the other two books returned to their original positions.
"Although I follow the path of magic, I also know the truth that 'quality is more important than quantity' in the martial arts that you knights learn. Since you have chosen it, take this book with you and study it well."
Qi Ji nodded, put away the books neatly, said goodbye to the old witch and left the library.
Then, under the guidance of the magic robe, he returned to the house where Lani was.
At this time, Melina and the two knights had disappeared.
Lani smiled at him and said, "I have arranged for Melina and the others to leave. You don't have to stay. Leave as soon as possible."
"Ah? Am I alone?" Qi Ji spread his hands slightly: "The problem is, I don't know the way."
Lani chuckled and said calmly, "I have arranged it myself. Take these things with you to help you reach your destination smoothly."
She moved her fingers slightly, and immediately several things flew up from the table on the side and floated in front of Qi Ji.
An orange ring, a bell and a parchment scroll.
Without waiting for Qi Ji to ask, Lani took the initiative to say, "These three small items are the spirit horse whistle, the sound transmission bell, and the magic map. As the name suggests, blowing the whistle can summon a magic spirit horse for you to ride, shaking the sound transmission bell can establish a call with me, and opening the parchment scroll will tell you the direction of the next destination."
Good fellow! Qi Ji exclaimed, Good fellow!
Magic, you are really awesome.
Seeing Qi Ji immediately put away the three things, Lani smiled faintly: "Since everything is ready, let's set off immediately."
This is a way to drive people away.
Qi Ji would naturally not be tactless.
Under the guidance of the Demon Robe, he received some dry food and gold coins from the logistics department of the Witch Association, then decisively left the alien space and returned to the Witch Forest.
This time, he was left alone.
But to be honest, he didn't have many acquaintances in Xicang Continent, so there was no need to be too sentimental.
He brought the magic ring, called a whistle but actually a ring, on his finger to his lips and blew gently. Silent vibrations spread, and he felt countless extraordinary factors gathering and condensing in front of him. Then a white, tall horse appeared in front of him.
Qi Ji climbed onto the horse without hesitation, and then lightly pulled the reins. He felt the agile horse under him respond to his wishes immediately and began to run in the predetermined direction.
There was a fluctuation from the bell, and the next second, Lani's elegant female voice sounded: "I have set up the corresponding route on the magic map. You can just follow the established route normally. Also, be careful not to stay in the wild for too long, as it will attract demons at night."
Qi Ji picked up the bell and said with a smile, "I see. Thank you, Teacher Lani, for your guidance and for giving me so many handy little things."
"You're welcome. Please be careful not to use these three items unless necessary. Although I have stored a lot of usage times, I can't guarantee that you will use up all these small spells if you squander them carelessly."
Qi Ji said he understood.
Soon the bell stopped ringing.
Qi Ji smiled slightly, squeezed his legs against the horse's belly, and the spirit horse's running speed suddenly increased a bit.
The direction of travel is east.
…
Letting the spirit horse run quickly, Qi Ji no longer looked at the trees on both sides that were rapidly retreating, but took out the book on the sword of flowing water and began to study.
When I opened the first page of the book, I saw a rather scribbled sentence.
[Staying still will lead to sedimentation, and sedimentation will accelerate corruption]
Qi Ji continued to flip through the pages. With the blessing of transcendence and extraordinary powers, his memory and comprehension abilities were at the genius level with photographic memory. He quickly sorted out the core content of this "secret book".
It records an exquisite method of wielding a sword as smoothly as flowing water, including the "sword form" and "steps" that can be practiced before reaching extraordinary levels as well as practical combat skills.
It also includes all the key training techniques from the first level to the fourth level after reaching the extraordinary level.
For example, for the first level, there is a meditation technique specific to this school - "Flowing Water Visualization", which allows practitioners to gather and guide the "magic power" floating between heaven and earth more quickly and stably, while also having the function of training the spirit.
The corresponding second-level training technique is a method of magic explosion - "Turbulence". According to a specific method, the magic power in the body is manipulated by the mind, and after it explodes in different parts of the body, it obtains a strong amplification effect on the physical body. For this reason, the creator of this sword technique also specially recorded a set of sword dances for use in the practice of "Turbulence".
This sword dance, which can be used to train the technique of bursting magic power and exert extremely terrifying lethality in actual combat, is called "Water Bird Dance".
This is a set of sword skills that is elegant, swift and complex. The whole set of movements is divided into four parts. The attack movements from the first to the fourth part are fifteen, six, twelve and ten times respectively, with a total of forty-three attacks.
The standard casting time requires that it be completed within five seconds, which is an average of nine strikes per second.
Except for people like Qi Ji who have cheats, it is difficult for normal extraordinary people to achieve this level of sustained outburst before the third level.
Therefore, this secret book spends a lot of space to break down in detail the magic burst points corresponding to these forty-three attacks, and develops a step-by-step practice plan for learners to refer to.
What Qi Ji focused on most was the magic burst technique called "turbulence".
He followed the method suggested in the book and used simple "finger snapping" movements as an introductory training method.
The specific practice method is to make a gesture as if the middle finger and thumb are about to pop out, and then use a small amount of mental effort to activate the magic power in the middle finger muscles, thereby instantly allowing the middle finger to gain a popping power that is far beyond the usual explosive force.
This training method is simple and safe.
With his amazing comprehension and strong control over his mind, Qi Ji's practice progressed extremely quickly.
It only took him about two days to initially master how to use his mind to mobilize the magic power in his body, and with a very high success rate, he was able to allow his middle finger to gain explosive power many times, with the increase in power reaching about 1.5 times the usual level.
According to the book, the explosive power of a second-level transcendent can eventually reach three times that of a first-level transcendent.
Qi Ji became very motivated when he thought about the benefit of successful practice, which would be that he would be able to increase his already terrifying strength several times over.
You know, the Berserker Armor that would kill him if he burst out with all his strength only increases his body functions by three times.
He just rode on the spirit horse, concentrating all his energy on practicing.
Four days later, Qi Ji rode out of the Witch Forest on his spirit horse.
