Chapter 135 The Number One Swordsman? Sword Douluo's Defenses Are Breached.
"Holy crap! That giant sword fell from the sky! No wonder this blond kid was so arrogant, he actually had such a trump card, he's too amazing!"
"Although it doesn't have the earth-shattering impact of Nicardoli's strike, this kid's aura is in no way inferior to Star Core Hunter's Blade and Dragon Lord Danheng!"
"I think this blond kid Yan Qing is younger than Tang San and the others!"
"If I had this kind of strength when I was twelve or thirteen, I would definitely be ten or a hundred times more arrogant than this blond kid Yanqing!"
The people on the Douluo Continent were incredibly excited, never expecting to witness such a spectacular battle!
The battles in Onpharos involve time travel, memory traversal, time teleportation, and location shifts, which can be dazzling and confusing for many viewers.
Unlike the battle between Danheng, Ren, and Yanqing now, where flying swords clash, the moves are direct and exhilarating!
Some people, watching the sword moves used by Yan Qing, a mere youth, secretly speculated that his strength must have surpassed that of the number one swordsman in Douluo Continent—Sword Douluo Chen Xin!
I don't know what others think, but even Chen Xin, the Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, thinks so.
His eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief, and his eyes shone with a thirst for knowledge.
Looking down at the Seven Kill Sword in his hand, and the nine star-shaped points formed by the soul rings (two yellow, two purple, and five black) on its blade, he felt it suddenly seemed dull and lifeless.
He felt that the Seven Kill Sword in his hand was utterly weak!
In particular, the soul skills he acquired by hunting soul beasts looked utterly tasteless.
His self-created soul skills were merely flashy; how could they compare to the sword in Yanqing's hand?
The swords summoned by Yanqing can form various mysterious sword formations, which, when combined, can unleash a power far exceeding that of a single sword move.
Especially the last move, the giant sword that fell from the sky and destroyed the world, its shock was enough to make Sword Douluo throw away his Seven Kill Sword on the spot!
"What should I do... how can I become as powerful as those from beyond the heavens and comprehend the true meaning of the sword?"
Sword Douluo lowered his head, his eyes fixed on the Seven Kill Sword in his hand, his voice hoarse, his face full of longing and confusion.
Seeing Sword Douluo's dejected appearance, Bone Douluo could only shake his head helplessly.
His Bone Dragon Martial Soul is considered incredibly powerful even in the Douluo Continent.
But when he saw Su Chang release that phoenix that looked like a chubby white chicken, he felt a deep sense of inferiority.
No matter how strong his bone dragon is, it's probably no match for that "chicken"!
Seeing that Sword Douluo was still lost in his doubts, Bone Douluo reached out and patted him on the shoulder, advising him:
"Sword Master, those are the powers of beings from beyond the heavens, the powers of those who walk the path of destiny. Our Douluo Continent's Martial Soul system is completely insignificant compared to them!"
"Sigh... How exactly can one embark on the path of destiny? We've tried several times, and many people have even been stabbed in the chest, dying without ever figuring out how to become a pathfinder like Little Gray and the others..."
"Martial spirits are... are despicable, are weak..."
After listening to Bone Douluo's advice, Sword Douluo suddenly seemed to have an epiphany and understood something.
His gaze suddenly narrowed, a resolute glint flashing in his eyes, and he threw the Seven Kill Sword in his hand to the ground.
The Seven Kill Sword trembled slightly on the ground before turning into starlight and dissipating into the world.
The Seven Kill Sword is his martial spirit. In order to cultivate the sword path and keep his martial spirit solid in the world, he even integrated all his soul rings into the Seven Kill Sword!
Despite years of perseverance, after witnessing the swordsmanship of the extraterrestrials, he resolutely abandoned this path!
"Swordman, what... what are you doing?"
Bone Douluo, standing nearby, was shocked and bewildered when he saw Sword Douluo destroy his own martial soul.
He even wondered if Sword Douluo had gone mad, actually giving up such powerful strength!
Although Sword Douluo appears incredibly weak in the face of those from beyond the heavens, there are very few people on the Douluo Continent who can defeat him!
Sword Douluo ignored Bone Douluo's exclamation and frantically scanned his surroundings, as if searching for something.
Soon, his gaze settled on an ordinary iron sword used by his disciples for training not far away. The sword was rusty and dull.
He strode over and grabbed the iron sword.
The moment he grasped the iron sword, an indescribable, wondrous feeling spread throughout his spiritual world.
He instantly recalled the time when his father taught him swordsmanship when he was a child and before he had awakened his martial spirit.
At that time, he learned the most basic chopping, slashing, and thrusting techniques, and every swing made him feel incredibly happy and exhilarated.
However, since awakening the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul, he has devoted most of his energy to researching Soul Skills.
Those moves that only require the spirit rings to light up to be unleashed seem powerful, but they gradually caused him to lose his sense of the sword itself.
He felt that such abilities were utterly soulless; only by holding the sword in his own hands and swinging it each time could he feel the sword "breathing" and communicating with his own mind.
This sudden realization greatly benefited Sword Douluo.
He couldn't help but look excitedly at the ordinary iron sword in his hand, his voice trembling:
"Weapons...sword techniques...I understand now!"
"So that's why Yanqing possesses so many dazzling sword techniques and can develop such powerful sword formations... So that's how it is! So that's how it is!!"
"What exactly happened? Did you discover something?"
Seeing Sword Douluo's excited and restless appearance, Bone Douluo also became excited and asked with a look of inquiry.
Sword Douluo suddenly burst into laughter, his voice booming with relief and ecstasy:
"Hahaha... I get it! Martial Souls are completely limiting our thinking!"
"When we have martial spirits and spirit skills, we become particularly reliant on them and too lazy to think about more possibilities."
"Only when we are unarmed, with only a sword in our hands, do we truly begin to think:"
How can I strike to inflict maximum damage on the enemy? How can I combine moves to make my attacks even more lethal?
"We've relied too much on the characteristics of Martial Souls and ignored the true nature of combat!"
"Is it difficult to create your own soul skills? Are Tang San's hidden weapons also difficult to use?"
"It's not difficult at all! The difficulty lies in having brains but not thinking in that direction at all!"
"Hahaha! This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous! Martial spirits have been prevalent in our Douluo Continent for over 20,000 years! Over 20,000 years!"
"We never expected that what would hinder our development would be the very martial spirit upon which we depend for survival?"
"In all these years, no one has ever thought of this!"
"The same old martial souls, the same almost identical soul skills—our soul masters on the Douluo Continent have lived for so many years, developed for over 20,000 years, and we still can't even figure out such a simple problem!"
"This is a principle that even the monkeys in the forest understand!"
"That is—we need tools!!"
"Seeing Tang San's hidden weapons, I realized that if I made them into the shape of swords, I could control them!"
"None of the previous owners of the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul had anticipated this!"
"If my father, grandfather, and ancestors could carry tens of thousands of flying swords with them and control these swords to attack, they would have been able to develop countless formations over tens of thousands of years!"
"Those formations are far more powerful than so-called self-created soul skills!!"
