Chapter 825 Sword Heart and Five Elements
Cheng Ling Shuang's strength was the worst when the three little ones first joined the group.
That's undeniable, but Cheng Ling Shuang's comprehension of the Tai Xu Sword Technique is beyond imagination.
After all, the Sword Heart has four levels: Still Water, Dustless, Clear Mirror, and Great Void.
Although Li Ming could not comprehend or understand the meaning of these four levels, judging from Su Mei's performance, it seemed more like a test of one's character.
Or rather, without a sufficiently strong mind, one's will will inevitably be distorted by Honkai energy.
So whether one is driven by one's own will or controlled by others is uncertain.
The Taixu Sword Technique is not only about the sword heart, but also about the Taixu Five Elements, which are the five elements of heart, form, intention, soul, and spirit. It is a highly refined skill that specializes in 'true qi'.
In other words, it is a way of manipulating Honkai energy, or the body gradually adapting to Honkai energy and enduring high concentrations of Honkai energy.
It can even reach the level of a Herald, where one can control their own arm as if guided by divine intervention.
Of course, in Li Ming's view, this was more like the effect of the Divine Sound Surgery, incorporating some of the principles of the Holy Mark. Although it was called True Qi, its essence was still Honkai energy.
If one gains access to excessively powerful Honkai energy beforehand, and one's own mindset is not up to that level.
So naturally, they created a powerful assassin, or even a pseudo-Herrscher.
Of course, if Yan Shilu hadn't died back then, then when the pseudo-Herrscher core within Yan Shilu's body completely transformed into a quantum singularity in the actual concept.
Then China will welcome a new Herrscher, and it will most likely be the Herrscher of Flame.
However, upon reflection, since Master Chiyuan was also present at the time, if Lin Chaoyu really couldn't resolve the situation...
Then perhaps Yan Shilu will have to face the iron fist that has protected China for more than 20,000 years.
Perhaps it was the Heavenly Spirit, or perhaps it was the Taixu Divine Sword that directly suppressed Yan Shilu.
When the historians record it, they'll just gloss over it with phrases like "a celestial being descends with a divine sword" or "Yama, the King of Hell, eliminates the world."
Therefore, in Li Ming's opinion, Lin Chaoyu, the senior sister, is truly talented.
Kenshin had long since grasped the Mirror of Enlightenment, but he was never able to enter the Gate of the Great Void.
The Five Aggregates of the Great Void have also been mastered to the point of understanding intention.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to fight Yan Shilu so easily with just a longsword made of fine steel.
As for Cheng Ling Shuang, well, back then, although the Holy Flame Sect chose Jiang Wanru and Jiang Wanxi as Holy Maidens, Li Ming suspected that those guys in the Holy Flame Sect had lost their minds.
Look at these two, both are just pure fun-loving people. Jiang Wanxi is a bit better, she has some of the responsibility of an older sister, while her younger sister Jiang Wanru is just a pure fun-loving person.
How could someone with such a temperament possibly control the raging azure flames of the Holy Fire Cult, or have that level of destructive energy poured into their body?
Given their adaptability, they are definitely at the level of starting with the Demon God Death Squad, and may even be more difficult to deal with.
I wonder what the point of creating a saintess like this is?
Oh, so the leaders are all pseudo-Herrschers with malfunctioning brains, then it's alright.
However, Cheng Ling Shuang was born with a blank expression, making it impossible to read her emotions, and she had a very calm temperament.
Or rather, it is simple and unrefined.
It's not the kind of cold-heartedness that comes from being cold-blooded, but rather the purity of a child's heart.
That's why Cheng Ling Shuang was able to break through the stillness of the water and reach the state of dustlessness so early in her comprehension of the Tai Xu Sword Heart.
As for Jiang Wanxi and Jiang Wanru, both of them spent a long time practicing on the mountain before they finally understood and mastered it.
Moreover, it was only through the stillness of the water that Jiang Wanxi broke through the dust, but that was due to the effect of testing the sword.
Although both are without dust, Cheng Ling Shuang's mastery of Honkai energy is even greater than Jiang Wan Xi's.
According to Li Ming's estimation, even if Cheng Ling Shuang did not break through to the Ming Jing level in this sword trial, her mastery of the Five Elements of Tai Xu should have reached the level of Yi, just like Su Mei and Lin Chao Yu.
Cheng Ling Shuang did not adhere to the shape of her weapon and continued to perform the move "Transformation into a Sword - Swift" in her own way.
The dense sword energy, like swifts spreading their wings, swooped towards the dragon.
However, Cheng Ling Shuang's sword aura, which appeared to be only five feet long, was still much smaller compared to the hundred-foot-long remains of the dragon.
Even so, Cheng Ling Shuang simply swung her sword out and held the [Crystalized Reverse Blade] vertically in front of her.
With a flick of his wrist, he thrust straight down, [Sword Transformation - Eagle Beak].
The sharp sword tip was coated with a thin layer of Honkai energy.
It is indeed very small to the naked eye.
Compared to Cheng Ling Shuang's size, it was like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.
The downside is that most of the damage from the [Crystal Reverse Blade] weapon is concentrated on the blade, which is forged by the Honkai Beast organization, to destroy the organization's structure.
However, now, although Cheng Ling Shuang's idea is good, the damage is obviously not as good as that caused by the sword.
The previous move, "Transformation Sword - Swift," had even ripped open the abdomen, but this move, "Transformation Sword - Eagle Beak," couldn't even peck open the scales.
The Crystal Reverse Blade, which was held vertically with both hands, was now held squarely in Cheng Ling Shuang's right hand.
With the blade resting against the forearm, this grip is clearly unsuitable for swordsmanship.
There was really no other way at the moment, so we just had to use whatever we had.
Anyway, the dragon only has so little blood left. Even if Cheng Ling Shuang messes around, I can still take care of it.
If you can't fight, then go for it yourself. That's when Cheng Ling Shuang's sword test becomes very troublesome.
Li Ming could see that Cheng Ling Shuang was indeed innocent, but he wondered if she had killed too many bandits.
What was originally a pure and sincere person now appears more like someone who has been immersed in the craft for many years, whose skills are superb, who is still young, and who is cold-hearted.
Everything else is fine, but Li Ming feels that he needs to correct this as soon as he discovers it, since he has really ruined Cheng Ling Shuang, this silly girl who has received the true teachings.
I reckon that the Immortal Chi Yuan will pry open my skull with a single punch and let me see what's inside my head.
The effect of 【Transforming Sword? Eagle Beak】 was not significant.
Instead, this aroused the dragon's ferocity, causing it to thrash its body and slap its tail against itself.
Clearly, Cheng Ling Shuang's method of stepping on the dragon is obviously cheating.
After all, it would be difficult for the dragon to pull Cheng Ling Shuang down. After all, being small has its advantages, as she is far smaller than the dragon's hundred-zhang body.
So each time the dragon's tail struck empty air, the dragon's slaps against itself actually made it snarl.
"【Transformation into a Sword? Stroking the Willow】"
Cheng Ling Shuang was not in a hurry at all. Instead, she let the Crystal Reverse Blade in her hand hang down into the scales.
The impenetrable sword light hung down and intertwined like slender willow branches.
Cheng Ling Shuang began to run on the dragon's body.
With each pause, Cheng Ling Shuang made a cut on the dragon's body, and not just one cut, but many cuts, making it look like a new Honkai Beast.
His appearance, covered in blood, was extremely horrifying.
