Chapter 102: Chapter 86: Simulating True Intentions, Copying Ninja Kakashi Jing, Shadow Flame Lv2 (4K, Monthly Ticket Request)

[Weapon Strike Lv1 (128/300)]

This was a skill Xue Jing successfully activated one day after he officially began to engage in weapon fighting skills.

Now deeply involved in martial arts, Xue Jing found weapon skills came naturally, easily meeting the activation requirements for this skill.

Xue Jing gripped the long blade in his hand and with a flick of his wrist, he spun a dazzling flourish.

This skill, too, did not endow him with any direct weapon techniques.

According to Xue Jing's observations over the past two days, [Weapon Strike] brought him a slight enhancement in physical fitness, comparable to [Health Cultivation].

Most importantly, it improved that mysterious sensation he felt when holding a weapon.

With the blade in hand, he felt like a natural-born master, as if the blade were an extension of his own arm, its swings as effortless as moving his fingers.

When Power flowed into the blade, it coursed through silky smooth, without the slightest hinderance.

This allowed him to learn sword skills at an unbelievably fast pace; within just one day, he deeply understood the basics and was ready for real combat.

"Junior Brother, shall we continue?"

Chen Fuguang asked with a smile.

Xue Jing held the long blade ready and nodded, "Let's continue, Senior Brother Chen."

Due to the spaciousness required for sword practice, they conducted their weapon sparring training in the training arena.

The rare sight of two Direct Disciples sparring on the platform, blades clashing, naturally drew a crowd of ordinary disciples.

"That's the Junior Brother Xue Jing who was on the news... He looks freaking awesome."

Someone sighed admiringly.

"It was that news article that made me want to come train at Hidden Dragon Dojo."

"What do you mean, 'looks freaking awesome'... Can't you speak properly?"

A female disciple rolled her eyes at him.

"Quiet, the Senior Brothers have started fighting again!"

A clanging sound filled the platform.

Xue Jing stepped forward, holding the blade with both hands and came close to Chen Fuguang, unleashing an upward diagonal strike.

"Clang!"

Chen Fuguang simply raised his blade and with a single movement diverted the force of Xue Jing's strike, then twisted his wrist, counterattacking with the momentum.

Xue Jing blinked, forcefully halting his slash and retracting the blade to defend.

The two exchanged blows in this manner, attack and defence, their long blades clashing incessantly.

"Clang!"

Xue Jing parried, locking blades with Chen Fuguang.

"Clink-clank-clink-clank—"

Both blades quivered from the impact, then suddenly Xue Jing's gaze intensified.

"Senior Brother Chen, be careful."

His words had barely fallen when his pupils turned red, as if stained with fresh blood.

Chen Fuguang paused for a moment, only to discover that his blade suddenly felt heavier.

"Clang!"

Chen Fuguang involuntarily stepped back and was about to speak when he realized that Junior Brother had already closed the distance, poised for attack.

What followed was a fearsome barrage of slashes, like a torrential downpour.

Chen Fuguang quickly raised his blade in defence, as the sound of metal on metal echoed continuously throughout the training hall.

With each strike heavier than the last, there was no indication of them stopping.

After ten seconds, Chen Fuguang was still in control.

Twenty seconds later, a frown creased Chen Fuguang's brow.

Thirty seconds later, a serious look flashed across Chen Fuguang's eyes.

He observed Xue Jing's blood-red pupils with some concern.

'The Asura Blade's intent... Did Master actually teach this to Junior Brother?'

"Crack—"

Chen Fuguang's long blade could not withstand the relentless assault and snapped.

His expression changed slightly, and just as he was about to call a halt, he saw Xue Jing had already retracted his blade and was standing calmly, his pupil color returning to black.

Chen Fuguang was stunned.

"Junior Brother, you... you're lucid?"

Xue Jing looked at him oddly, "Otherwise?"

Chen Fuguang scratched his head, pondered a moment, then spoke reassuringly:

"Seems I was overthinking... "

He reasoned that their master was excessively cunning; he would certainly have considered this point.

If Junior Brother didn't have the ability to control the Asura Blade's intent, Master would definitely not have passed it on to him.

Chen Fuguang remarked with emotion, "Junior Brother, you truly are a monster... Not to mention your martial arts talent, even your talent for 'Quiet Qi' is extraordinary."

"Master said, the killing intent generated by the Asura Blade represents the pinnacle of 'Dynamic Qi', yet you are still able to maintain the 'Balance of Movement and Stillness', gaining the bonus of killing intent while also fully controlling it, with ease."

"Third Brother got into trouble because he touched upon the Asura Blade, and now he's in Inner Ring City, taking care of his heart and nature with 'Asura Chen'."

Xue Jing's eyebrows rose.

This was the first he heard of it.

"Junior Brother, how long have you been engaging with the Asura Blade's intent?" Chen Fuguang asked.

"Just these past couple of days," Xue Jing replied casually.

"What?" Chen Fuguang was utterly astounded.

"You've mastered the Asura Blade's intent in just two days?"

His face was a picture of incredulity.

"That's a first-rate martial art of The Old Martial World..."

Xue Jing shook his head and smiled, "No, Senior Brother Chen, you're mistaken."

"I haven't 'learned' the Asura Blade's intent, but rather 'imitated' it."

Xue Jing opened his interface and glanced at it.

[You have engaged in a training bout, Weapon Strike Experience Points +88]

[You have engaged in a training bout, Meditative Visualization Experience Points +38]

[... Fitness Experience Points +73]

[... Hidden Dragon Energy Experience Points +66]

[Visualization Lv5 (688/2000)]

The so-called Asura Blade's intent is actually a Visualization Method, similar to the Coiling Dragon Art where one envisions oneself as a dragon.

Through envisioning a blade soaked with endless blood, the Asura Blade, one repeatedly kills in a world made of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, fostered solely in one's imagination, kill after kill after kill.

This cultivates a pure and boundless killing intent, which in martial arts is referred to as 'Dynamic Qi'.
