The Desolate Era

[Rain Light Sutra]. The principle behind it is a saying, ‘ dripping water can finally penetrate batu’.

His attacks were gentle yet inexhaustible, as if endless as raindrops falling from the sky during a rainstorm, making the enemy difficult to dodge. In turn, its defense was completely airtight .. and at the same time, when tens of millions of raindrops gathered at one point, it could form a terrifying explosive force. Even ordinary water droplets could finally pierce through the stone; the sword that had been converted into ‘the rain’ drops would naturally contain an unshakable and unyielding strength.

[The Raindrop Sutra] is really deep and amazing. Ning nodded as he read it, then picked up the second book, [Polaris Secret Guide].

[Polaris Secret Guide] was part of the legendary [Polaris Sword Guide]. It was divided into seven different sword positions, known as Dubhe, Merak, Phecda, Megrez, Alioth, Mizar, and Alkaid. These seven major sword moves all contained star power. They could be as ferocious and ferocious as the Voracious Alkaid Wolf Sword, or the extremely gentle and extremely evil Megrez Melodious Sword

His sword techniques were extremely mysterious, and were extremely difficult to defend against.

“What a good sword technique.” Ning sighed in astonishment as he read, before taking out the other three books.

[Fire Lightning Sword]. This was something that the ancestors of the Ji clan, when exploring and training themselves elsewhere in the world, were lucky enough to find. They had found the rest of the book half-burned, and the words inside were not so clear. Only two words on the title could be seen: Thunderflame! Moreover, they were only able to regain three complete sword moves from the book.

All attitudes are used to attack. When the horses were used, it was as if it contained the power of heavenly thunder and hellfire. There was no doubt that in terms of attack power, it was the undisputed champion among the Ji clan sword techniques! With just three positions to allow him to rank among the Five Great Sword Techniques of the Ji clan, one could imagine how that unnamed complete sword technique had clearly surpassed the other four sword techniques.

However, even though his strength was visible, his weakness was visible as well. This was because of this cruel attitude. Thus, they are not perfectly connected with each other. In addition, all three attitudes are purely offensive, with no defensive stance. How could the experts, when engaged in battle, not have a defensive stance? Thus, very few people chose to practice this sword technique.

“I really want to see what a complete Thunderflame Sword looks like.” Ning couldn't help but sigh.

“If we have a full copy of it,” said Yichuan nearby, “then it will be, without question, the number one Immortal technique in Swallow Mountain.”

Ning nodded, then picked up the fourth book.

[Illusional Sutra]. Actually, this is not a sword technique, because once one really understands the meaning of the word ‘Ilusi’, one can run the ‘Saber Illusi’ technique, or the ‘Illusi’ Spear technique, or technique ‘Staff Illusi’ ..this is a dangerous and powerful attacking technique that allows one to hide his true abilities and actions. Opponents will often die before even knowing what happened.

This technique is so evil to the extreme.

“This does not match my temper.” The first technique Ning threw away was the [Illusion Sutra]. Choosing something that is suitable for someone is very important. A technique that was opposite to one's natural instincts, no matter how deep. Sure, Ning immediately threw it away.

“Hrm, the latter was originally the greatest power of the Ji.” clan Ning started flipping through the [Melody of Ten Thousand Swords].

[Melody of Ten Thousand Swords] was hailed as the most complicated of the five sword techniques, far more complicated than the [108 Swords of the Gods and Demons] Ning had previously learned. But despite the complexity, once one truly mastered it, the [Melody of Ten Thousand Swords] could be simplified into three main styles. Attitude ‘One Sword, Ten Thousand Shadow’, ‘Ten Thousand Swords Become One’, and ‘Melody Ten Thousand Swords’.

Ning closed his eyes, pondering.

In terms of being the most amazing and most complicated, or perhaps even the simplest, it was the [Melody of Ten Thousand Swords].

In terms of being the most dangerous and difficult to guard, it was the [Illusory Sutra].

In terms of being the most orthodox, it is the [Polaris Secret Guide].

In terms of having the greatest defense, it was the [Rain Freckle Sutra].

In terms of the most powerful attack and the deepest and deepest principle, it was the [Flight Sword].

First of all, the [Illusory Sutra] can be excluded. It doesn't suit my temper! Ning mused. [Polaris Secret Guide] is part of the [Polaris Sword Guide]. In terms of attacks, it was not very powerful. In defense, not really. It was not too beautiful either it was relatively average, but it was also not weak in any aspect. When fighting against experts, one must have some kind of advantage! [Polaris Secret Guide] can also be excluded.

Only three are left. [Melody of Ten Thousand Swords], [Raindrop Sutra], and [Thunderflame Sword].

[Rain Light Sutra] is a must! Ning thought to himself.

The Rain Drip Sutra was like an endless curtain of raindrops. It was the most defensive technique among the five major sword techniques.

In battle, defensive ability was even more important than attacking ability!

In his past life, Ning had seen many martial arts competitions. All champions are experts at evasion and defending. Even in football and basketball, there is a saying that ‘defense is king’. Although the attack is good to see it is a defense that really gives the best chance of winning.

The place is different, but the logic is the same!

In life and death battles, defense is also important. When meeting an expert stronger than himself, one might reach the point of only being able to defend and not attack. If one's defenses were strong, then perhaps he was still alive. But once the people focused on the attack met those who were even stronger than them, once their attacks were unable to injure the opponent, they were finished.

Defense is the same thing as defending my life. First, I must defend my life; only then can I take the life of another. Moreover, this was the technique my father used to become famous. With him personally instructing me, I will improve quickly. [Rain Light Sutra] is a must. Ning carefully continued to consider. As for the [Thunder Sword] and [Ten Thousand Sword Divine]

All right, that [Thunder Sword]! Ning quickly made her decision.

However, since he used the twin swords, he already had the [Rain Light Sutra] for defense. So, for the second one, he chose the most powerful [Thunder Sword] to attack. [The Thunderflame Sword], as its flaws, lacked defensive techniques, but as a twin sword user, it was not a flaw at all. He had chosen the [Rain Drip Sutra] for his defense, and thus what he needed now was a powerful killing technique.

[Rain Light Sutra] and [Fire Lightning Sword]. Ning made a decision. [The Raindrop Sutra] was excellent in defense, whereas the [Thunderflame Sword], despite only having three blows, had three extremely powerful killing moves.

Moreover, after my [Crimsonbright Diagram of the Nine Heavens] reached the Xiantian level, my Sun Tattoo and Divine Moon Tattoo would allow me to control fire and water. Water was very suitable for the [Silk Rain Drop] whereas fire was very suitable for the [Thunder Sword]. I believe they will be of great help to my swordplay.

In defense, my defense must be so tight that not a single drop of water can penetrate it!

In attacking, my attack must be as powerful as a fiery volcano!

I have a twin sword. One to defend, one to attack. Or maybe I can use both for defense. Or both to attack. I'll do as I please! Ning quickly began evaluating the possibilities of his future in battle, and he saw his way very clearly. He knew .. Only once one had a full understanding of how one would progress and progress, one could avoid taking the wrong path. This will help one grow faster!

In war, strategy is more important than tactics.

In the growth of a person, there is a saying that planning is more important than effort.

If one knew the correct path needed to advance, even if one did not make great progress every day, after ten or twenty years, one would still reach a high level. But if one did not have a clear goal, and only worked hard blindly, one might just run in place without increasing, or perhaps even retreating!

.

His careful examination of the books took two hours. The candle is half finished. Yichuan and Snow just waited there quietly, occasionally exchanging words.

“Dad mom.” Ning suddenly spoke.

Hm? Yichuan and Snow both turned to look at him. Yichuan speaking. “You've chosen?”

Ning nodded.

Ning, son, what have you chosen? One or two?” Snow asked.

“I've chosen two.” Ning held out two books. One of them was the [Rain Spotted Sutra]. The other was the [Light Sword].

[Rain Light Sutra]? [Thunder Sword]? Yichuan nodded small. As the number one expert of the Ji clan in Western Prefecture, despite not gaining any merit in battle after his son was born, his reputation only grew. This was because no one knew how powerful Yichuan had become .. but no one could argue that even in ten years, Yichuan had become the number one expert in the Western Prefecture.

Therefore his assessment is outstanding.

“Good.” Yichuan nodded.

“I want to hear your advice, Father.” Ning hurriedly said.

No hurry. Yichuan shook his head. I have some thoughts about the [Raindrop Sutra], but you have never practiced it before. So, even if I explain my thoughts to you, you will not be able to understand them. You must first train hard, and even engage in a life and death battle, before I manage to guide you.

Tomorrow at dawn, I will give you a complete copy of the [Raindrop Sutra] and the [Thunderflame Sword]. At that time, you will display it in front of me once. As long as you can get the correct posture and movement, that is enough. Yichuan nodded. Three days later, you will start engaging in real battles. The sparring matches you normally do are too simple and gentle. You have to fight a real life and death battle.

Ning's confused.

“Dad, haven't I been involved in a life-and-death battle?” Ning couldn't help but ask. “In the past, when you admitted that my skills had reached the first level in sword training, the base level, didn't you have me fight and kill some prisoners who had been sentenced to death?”

He remembers the first time he killed someone. At that moment, his entire body trembled, uncontrollably. Even though he rationally knew that he should not be afraid, he still could not help but tremble. In addition to the very few people who live to be slaughtered, this is a normal reaction from most people the first time they kill someone.

After killing dozens of people sentenced to death, he became calmer.

That's not a battle. It only trains your courage. Yichuan shook his head. Fighting with inmates? They are all weaker than you. How could it be called a life and death battle? Three days from now.I will arrange for you to engage in a true battle with a powerful, ferocious beast that has attained mastery at the Houtian level.

A monster? Ning's face changed.

Those captured monsters would go crazy and ferocious for food and a chance to live. Moreover, they would show no mercy at all. Yichuan looked at his son. In front of a large cage, you will fight against a ferocious beast, one on one. This was a battle that all the important descendants of the Ji clan had to go through; ‘Battle of Kandang’. More than half of these important descendants would die in that cage.

A half?

Ning was surprised, but then calmed down again. This was because he knew that the women and slaves in the various tribes were extremely fertile, but the total population here had never changed. Wh why? Because the savage environment had caused the tribes to have to fight against the heavens, against the earth, against the Diremonsters hidden within the mountains and valleys, and even against other tribes. Only a few survive! Even though he was born in the Ji clan, he still had to face hard and relentless training. Only the elite will survive.

It was precisely because all the members of the Ji clan clan clan were so powerful that the Ji clan was famous and had become a local hegemon!
