With that Bai Lung began to lower the shards for defense and increase the shares for offense.
His test was to destroy all the dummies and not get hit even once,
Day by day, the number of shards meant for defense became lower, from 4 to 3, 3 to 2, 2 to 1, and 1 to 0.
Swoosh~
Swoosh~
He controlled the shards while the laser shot toward him was blocked and reflected midway,
There was no need for shards to completely cover him, he could attack and also defend himself like that.
Chush! ( laser )
Fwoosh! ( reflect! )The reflection would also destroy the dummies which in itself was a big help for Bai Lung.
Controlling 10 shards, he was destroying them but it was not enough.
It takes only a second for dummies to fully recover no matter how badly they are destroyed.
In a second, he had to destroy around 60 dummies, at the same time, making sure he wasn’t hit.
Swish! Swish!
The days continued to move while his master over the shards and perfect control became strong.
Fwoosh! Fwoosh!
And on one fateful day, he finally did it.
All of them were destroyed.
” Ooh! Quite slow on this one, ” The Dark figure said.
He used to monitor him from time to time.
” Now then let’s move to advanced techniques: Fusion and Separation, ” He added with a straight tome.
Snap!
This time, the figure led Bai Lung to a section filled with intricate runes etched into the ground, forming a circular training area.
“Now, we will delve into advanced techniques; fusion, and separation,” the figure announced with his voice resonating with authority.
Bai Lung watched intently as the figure’s shards floated before him, merging into a single, larger shard that pulsed with concentrated energy.
“…”
” The technique is called Fusion and it allows you to combine your shards into more powerful forms,” he explained.
“This requires a deep connection and precise control, think of shards as drops of water, when more drops combine, they become bigger drops… Now! Try it.”
Without wasting any more time, Bai Lung nodded and closed his eyes, feeling the shards around him vibrate with latent energy.
He focused his mind on the task, envisioning the shards merging together like the water drops merging into bigger water drops.
At first, they resisted, each shard maintaining its individuality.
It was like the same side of a magnet, they repealed each other.
But,
He concentrated harder, visualizing them as gentle droplets of water merging into a single.
Slowly, the shards began to coalesce, their edges melting into one another until a single, larger shard hovered before him.
It glowed with an intense purple aura.
“Now, test its power,” the figure commanded with a cold tone.
Bai Lung pointed his finger at one of the dummies that was placed like a scarecrow,
Swoosh!
Boom!
In an instant, the fused shard moved with lightning speed leaving a trail of afterimages, and hit the target with a strong impact sending a shockwave through the hall.
The target exploded into fragments, the power of the fused shard far exceeding that of the individual pieces.
The force of the blow left a crater in the ground, showcasing the immense destructive potential of the fused shards.
“Impressive,” the figure said, nodding approvingly.
” But power alone is not enough. You must learn to control it with precision, try hitting it again, but this time only slice its neck with no sound, ”
The figure raised a hand, and several targets emerged from the floor, each one smaller and more distant than the last.
( 10 dummies )
“Now, hit each target with the same shard. You must maintain its form and power while striking with pinpoint accuracy,”
Bai Lung took a deep breath, focusing on the fused shard.
He visualized a line connecting him to each target, guiding the shard along its path.
With a swift motion, he directed the shard at the first target.
Swoosh!
Boom!
It flew fast completely shattering the small figure with a precise strike but power was huge, creating a strong sound.
He then moved to the next target in the hope of being swift and silent this time,
As he progressed, the targets became increasingly difficult to hit, as their neck was even smaller than the thickness of shard.
There is no war he could do it… A silent kill with these powerful shards that can literally obliterate anything.
Not to mention, those dummies were moving erratically, while others were shielded by obstacles.
It was literally impossible to slice them through their neck
Bai Lung’s mind pushed harder under the effort, while he thought of ways to make the shards a little thinner and sharp, that way he could easily live through and if fate allowed, he could even slice every single one of them with a single strike.
He knew he needed a thinner thickness, not this thick.
Controlling his shard, he began to visualize it getting thinner and sharper.
And to his surprise, the shard changed as he imagined.
And the next instance…
Swoooooooosh!
In an instant, Bai Lung destroyed the remaining dummies.
The dummies recover, and this Bai Lung sliced through every one of them in a single go.
” Seems good,” The figure said said. “You have demonstrated both power and precision. Now, let us move on to separation.”
The figure’s form shifted slightly as if preparing for the next lesson.
“Separation requires you to divide your shards into smaller, more numerous pieces for a versatile and adaptable attack,”
Bai Lung watched as the figure’s shards splintered into countless tiny fragments, forming a cloud of razor-sharp particles that surrounded the dark figure.
“This technique requires immense concentration and fine control,” the figure explained. “Each fragment must maintain its balance of power while moving independently, this time think of bigger drops separating into smaller ones,”
Bai Lung nodded his head, at first he thought it was easy, and in an instant the big shard, once again returned to being 10 pieces of shards.
But, the problem arrived here, where Bai Lung couldn’t multiply these shards.
The shards refused to multiply into many pieces.
