Chapter 34 - 34: Mastering Sword Drawing Skill, Sword Skill Breakthrough



“Seeing this destiny, Zhao Huai’s eyes lit up.

“Sword Skill Genius? With this destiny, I can make even greater breakthroughs in swordsmanship!”

“I need to ponder on this Swordsmanship Enlightenment.”

Zhao Huai would never underestimate this special effect, as he had experienced the ultimate’s intension stage within [Peak Ultimate’s Intension]. The horror of having eight times the strength of the physical body could completely shatter any method.

So, this Swordsmanship Enlightenment cannot be underestimated either.

Zhao Huai had only heard of the state of man and sword as one, but he had never personally experienced it. [Do you want to merge destiny]

“Merge.”

[Sword Skill Genius] destiny’s faint blue light bloomed, slowly returning to its position. As an early permanent destiny, its status is hard to shake.

With the support of the destiny, Zhao Huai clearly felt that his understanding of swordsmanship in his mind began to deepen, and he made a qualitative leap!

All the basic sword techniques he had learned before, many of which were wrong and cumbersome, he could now discern one by one.

He could even evolve them in the simplest way.

This is the extraordinary aspect of swordsmanship talent.

Zhao Huai then absorbed [Quick Mover], and a refreshing feeling immediately spread through his body, making his limbs feel very light.

Invisibly, his speed had reached twice that of before.

At the same time, Zhao Huai didn’t forget about the two Xuan-grade destinies he obtained from the unscrupulous antique dealer.

[Refining Bones into Jade] and [Crystal Clear Sword Mind].

He was most impressed by the [Crystal Clear Sword Mind] destiny, which could unleash the upper limit of sword technique and not be limited by each move.

Zhao Huai suddenly had an idea.

This [Crystal Clear Sword Mind] and [Sword Skill Genius] have the same essence but different techniques; both destinies enhance swordsmanship, but in different aspects. [Crystal Clear Sword Mind] focuses on sword moves, while [Sword Skill Genius] is about talent.

What would happen if both were combined?

Zhao Huai couldn’t help but get excited and immediately picked up a swordsmanship cultivation technique to study.

If it were an ordinary technique, that would be fine; he could learn it at a glance.

But this sword technique was quite special. It was something you might learn, but it would be extremely difficult to master in a lifetime. Cultivating such a sword technique requires great talent!

At this moment, Zhao Huai was revisiting this sword technique he had learned before in his mind.

Its name is Sword Drawing Skill.

Sword Drawing Skill is an extremely basic sword technique, but those who master it are very few.

Many people misunderstood it as a sword-drawing technique to practice, including Zhao Huai at first. But in fact, this was entirely the wrong direction.

Sword Drawing Skill is not a sword-move technique, but a constantly evolving, growing sword technique.

What is the real Sword Drawing Skill?

It is adjusting oneself to the peak state, with the mind, spirit, and qi united as one.

Nurturing the sword in the heart, sheathing the blade.

The strength gathered over many years, and the moment of release!

If it doesn’t sound, it’s already amazing. When it does, it’s extraordinary.

Ancient classics record that immortals used swords to break stones, overturn seas of clouds, and call it the Sword.

Zhao Huai re-studied Sword Drawing Skill, corrected the previous mistakes, but there was still a little gap to achieve a real transformation.

Don’t underestimate this gap; it often determines the key to success.

Outsiders come and go at Huai’s pawnshop. As long as they look inside, they can see a person with closed eyes, leaning on a recliner, as if taking a nap.

In fact, Zhao Huai was in a state of meditation and enlightenment.

However, no matter how many insights he gained, his understanding of momentum was still vague. How could he use sword momentum and guide it?

As long as he could break through this thin layer of paper, he could truly master the Sword Drawing Skill. “Activate Swordsmanship Enlightenment.”

Zhao Huai silently chanted in his heart.

The special effect of [Sword Skill Genius] destiny was activated, and he suddenly fell into a mysterious realm.

He felt as though he had become a sword, with a bottomless sharpness, refined in a deep, cold environment.

With Zhao Huai as the center, invisible whirlwinds began to form around him.

He made the posture of drawing a sword, and although there was no sword in his hand, there was an inexplicable momentum.

Whirlwinds followed him, releasing a mysterious power. It was fierce but harmless.

Zhao Huai’s body was still, the whirlwinds grew larger, and his hand gripping the imaginary sword became tighter and tighter. At this point, he had entered the realm of man and sword as one.

More and more whirlwinds were spreading from Zhao Huai, even causing the copper coins on the shelves to jingle.

With the [Crystal Clear Sword Mind] destiny, it allowed his state of mind to be imprinted with the sword, breaking the shackles of the upper limit.

Until a tipping point, there was a “whoosh” sound.

An overwhelming sword intent erupted from the pawnshop, shaking the branches of the willow trees outside the shop door. A fierce wind swept across, causing the passersby to cover their faces and complain, feeling inexplicable.

“This is the Sword Drawing Skill.”

“I’ve got it!”

Zhao Huai stood up hurriedly, with sharp eyes and beads of sweat on his forehead and neck.

Now he had finally learned the real Sword Drawing Skill, mastered the sword intent, and taken a big step forward in swordsmanship.

Understanding sword intent is an essential step for sword cultivators in their cultivation path.

Pear Blossom Alley.

People filled the benches in rows, with a makeshift stage in the center where actors passionately recited their lines.

Yu Qinghan sat among the audience, engrossed in the performance, her face still showing a smile.

Invisible to the surrounding, many people were watching her, their eyes gleaming with cold light. She seemed not to notice, still focusing on the stage.

“My Princess, King Yan wants to form an alliance with us, hoping to join forces against King Qin.”

A young-sounding woman’s voice whispered softly into Yu Qinghan’s ear.

This middle-aged woman was a disguised maid-servant.

Upon hearing this, Yu Qinghan shook her head: “My second brother? He’s no good either.”

“If I were to say that my eldest brother is a foolish brute, then he is as cunning as a fox, fond of using tricks when employing soldiers, and treating people with inscrutable depths. He probably doesn’t have good intentions.”

“Does Your Highness mean to refuse him?”

Yu Qinghan glanced at her and said indifferently, “I don’t need to join anyone, or even defeat anyone. The war is over, and what’s the point of these internal struggles?”

Upon hearing this, the maid-servant nodded and said:

“But the assassination order is still in effect, and now Your Highness’s

situation is still very dangerous.”

“Just some trivial matters, unworthy of attention. The Shadowless Pavilion in the black market, right? Wait for me to reach the Initiation Stage, and I’ll wipe them all out.”

Yu Qinghan’s indifferent tone was as if she was discussing a trivial matter.

“However, someone is bothering me while I am watching the performance, which is indeed irritating.”

After saying that, she stood up and gracefully patted the creases in her embroidered cloud skirt.

“Your Highness, what are you doing?” The maid-servant was taken aback.

“To kill.”
