Tens of thousands of demon spirits were scattered across the lush green plains. They originally enjoyed such a leisurely time, but the entry of Cheng Ling and others broke the tranquility on the grassland.
He, Yin Luoyao and Chu Yulu each chose a direction and headed towards the location of the demon spirit. Those demon spirits naturally refused to give up when they smelled human scent, and chased after them one after another.
The three of them were very cautious. Each of them attracted up to two demon spirits before turning around and retreating. As they walked, they led the demon spirits to the edge of the grassland, where Wu Tianfeng and the others were waiting anxiously. When the demon spirit came over, they quickly formed a sword formation and launched an attack.
Cheng Ling and the three of them each faced off against one demon spirit, and the remaining three demon spirits were accepted by the team of four. This kind of combination of combat power is very suitable. It does not feel that the number of demon spirits is too small, nor does it make you unable to swallow them and make you busy.
Cheng Ling chose a mid-level five-marked demon spirit, which was considered powerful compared to the six demon spirits attracted this time. On this point, I made it clear to Yin Luoyao and Chu Yulu early in the morning that they should not attract demon spirits that are too powerful first, and then slowly try to do it after they become proficient.
Unfortunately, things in the world are often unsatisfactory. When he met the demon spirit, the demon spirit was also attracted to him. In desperation, he could only fight it with all his strength.
In the beginning of the battle, Cheng Ling was completely at a disadvantage, with almost only defensive points. If his spiritual body had not been promoted to the fifth level and his physical strength had not been greatly enhanced, he would have been defeated long ago. When Yin Luoyao and others saw it, they wanted to step forward to help, but they were also entangled by a demon spirit that was a higher level and had no time to take care of themselves.
Cheng Ling could only brace himself and face it with concentration. I am already very proficient in basic swordsmanship. With my keen swordsmanship intuition, I can fight steadily and deal with it one sword at a time.
Time passed slowly, and Cheng Ling was completely immersed in the battle. He basically understood the demon spirit's attack methods, and he was able to counterattack with one or two moves out of more than ten moves. He began to try to use basic sword styles, and a steady stream of stabs came out of his hands. Each sword looked reluctant, but it was extremely powerful.
Less than half an hour later, the demon spirit had been stabbed in many places. Unfortunately, none of them hit the vital point. No matter how low the demon spirit's consciousness was, it was still not a hundred and five people. It still had the instinct to protect itself from being killed.
Cheng Ling became more proficient in using the basic sword styles. Gradually, the marks of ax chisels became less and less, and the sword styles he executed became more coherent, without the jerky feeling in the past.
Over there, Yin Luoyao and Chu Yulu took the lead in killing the demon spirit. The demon spirits that the two women faced were just at their fifth level, so their fighting abilities were quite different. In addition, they all have top-notch middle-grade swords in their hands, and their combat power has increased by 30% out of thin air.
Yin Luoyao first turned to look at Wu Tianfeng and the others, and saw that they were constantly circling around the three demon spirits, and they were becoming more and more skilled in moving the sword array. Although he was unable to kill the demon spirit in a short time due to his lack of combat power, it was more than enough to protect himself.
She immediately felt relieved and turned her attention to Cheng Ling. The latter's sword technique is simple, and each sword uses thrusting moves, but it is extremely powerful. The only regret is that the skill of exerting force is still lacking, and the damage to demon spirits is limited.
She couldn't help but said on the side: "First, you must use your arm strength to hit the target first. Secondly, when the long sword penetrates the opponent's body, use your wrist to exert force. Whether it is lateral pulling force or penetrating force, it can be extremely powerful." Greatly increase lethality.”
An idea flashed in Cheng Ling's mind, as if he had captured something. A sword stabbed out, which was ordinary and returned to its original nature, but the sword style completely enveloped the demon spirit, making it impossible for it to dodge, as if the eyes were filled with a sword, covering the sky and the earth.
With a "Pfft" sound, the long sword penetrated the body and pierced the heart. With a slight shake of the wrist, the left half of the demon spirit's body suddenly exploded. The figure stagnated. Cheng Ling drew the sword again, accurately piercing the center of the eyebrow, and the horizontal pull force exploded. His brain was crushed to pieces in an instant, and he died on the spot before even a scream could be heard.
A light ball as big as an egg floated in the air, and after a few breaths, it penetrated into Cheng Ling's body. The increased energy felt in his body was several times that of the four-marked demon spirit.
Cheng Ling closed his eyes and felt it, and after a moment he said: "Based on the energy of this light spot, it is estimated that it will take more than 5,000 to advance to the Five Marks Talisman Master. This is too difficult."
Yin Luoyao said: "Yes, I don't even know how long we will kill him."
Cheng Ling had an idea and remembered that running body-training techniques in the Immortal Mansion to digest the energy of light spots was much more efficient than simply absorbing it. Well, we can't be sure yet. Let's try it first. If it really works, then tell the other six people about the experience. Improving physical strength will definitely get twice the result with half the effort.
But right now, there is another matter that I want to ask Yin Luoyao for advice. He then asked: "Sister, I would like to ask you how to better master the technique of exerting force."
Yin Luoyao nodded and said: "The combat power of a monk is composed of many factors, but in the Demon Spirit Continent, strong combat power is directly related to whether the power is strong enough. However, there are some tricks in it, that is, having strong power. You must also learn how to apply power, and to use power well, you must be able to control your own power.”
"The technique of exerting force is actually a type of power control! Power control is endless and invisible. However, through the dedicated research of our ancestors, power control has been divided into levels."
"According to the understanding of our ancestors, power control is divided into four realms from low to high, namely: subtlety, proficiency, excellence, and perfection. The difficulty of power control corresponding to each realm is different, and the relative power generated is also different."
"The four realms of subtlety, proficiency, excellence, and perfection?" Cheng Ling repeated in her heart.
Yin Luoyao explained: "Let's talk about the first realm first: being subtle. The so-called subtle means being able to control one's own power freely, whether it is the power of the body, the immortal sword, the mysteries, etc., the control of one's own power You can do whatever you want and send and receive everything from your heart.”
"It seems that when you draw a sword to attack an opponent, only at the last moment when the sword is about to hit the opponent, do you mobilize your own power and pour it into the sword to form an effective attack. This is the subtlety."
"The second level is mastery. This level has higher requirements for power control. It can pour power into any part of the sword at will, and it can explode with stronger power."
"The third level is excellence. This level has higher requirements. Whether it is swordsmanship, spells, body skills, footwork, etc., any method of fighting the enemy can be used flexibly to achieve the greatest effect with the smallest amount of force. .”
"The last level of perfect realm is something that we can no longer explore. No one knows how powerful it is. Perhaps only a strong man like Wuji Immortal Emperor who belongs to the four great Immortal Emperors can grasp even the slightest hint of it. .”
Cheng Ling's pupils shrank. Even powerful men like the Four Immortal Emperors could only scratch the surface of what it was like to have perfect power control.
He asked curiously: "Senior Sister, what state are you in now?" Yin Luoyao smiled bitterly and said: "I have only mastered it to the smallest detail and can control my own power freely."
"Oh? Is power control so difficult to understand?"
"Yes, even masters and masters can achieve mastery only after cultivating at the Immortal King stage."
"Then how to practice power control?"
"This is quite simple. I will explain to you how to practice power control and achieve subtlety."
Cheng Ling nodded and listened attentively.
Yin Luoyao said: "There is no shortcut to controlling power. You can only rely on hard work day and night. Regardless of swordsmanship, spells, martial arts, and body skills, only by practicing them to the limit can you learn how to control power."
"Of course, there are also some monks with excellent talents and understanding who will control power faster than ordinary people and reach the subtle realm."
"Controlling one's own power, to put it bluntly, means controlling. Strengthening the control of one's own various powers, controlling the speed of the gathering of power, controlling the efficiency of condensing power, controlling the degree of condensation of power, etc., all belong to the category of power control."
"How to practice power control? A very straightforward point is to strengthen one's own mental power. The stronger and tougher the mental power is, and the higher the intensity, the easier it is to control oneself, and it will be much easier to reach a subtle state."
Cheng Ling scratched his head and asked, "But now that the immortal energy and consciousness are sealed, how can we use them?"
Yin Luoyao explained: "This was originally difficult, but after briefly unblocking it in the Immortal Mansion, I discovered that it is still possible to control the power of cultivation without spiritual consciousness. To put it bluntly, spiritual power is the ultimate expression of one's own will. The stronger the mental power, the stronger the will."
"As long as you consciously control the strength, direction, speed, etc. when using sword skills, so as to get the most effective combination, then integrate the trajectory of the sword moves and strike them out at once, over time, you will form A kind of inertia, the same technique is used in every subsequent move, and this is considered as entering the subtle realm."
Yin Luoyao's explanation is very intuitive and easy to understand. Cheng Ling suddenly realized that these principles were not profound and he understood them completely.
This is what is called the formation of muscle memory on earth. After using the same sword moves, strength, and speed for a long time, and repeating the same action many times, the muscles will form a conditioned reflex, and they will naturally use it once they encounter a battle.
Human muscles acquire memory very slowly, but once acquired, they forget it very slowly.
For example, the six Yin Luoyao people are involved in power control because they are from a top sect like Wuji Sect and are taught by two powerful immortal kings, Junzi Immortal King and Yunmeng Immortal King. But until now, only a very small number of people have been able to practice power control to the second level and reach the level of mastery. Even the first level is just an introduction!
As the saying goes, Wangshan is like a dead horse!
When you see a mountain, you think that the mountain is right in front of you, as if you can reach it by taking a few steps, but you find that no matter how you move forward, the horse is running to death and you still have not reached the mountain, and the mountain is still there for you. An illusion that you can reach it just a few steps ahead.
Therefore, it is one thing to know how to practice, and another thing to what state you can practice to. However, Cheng Ling believed that with his understanding and talent in swordsmanship, he would be able to achieve perfection in the shortest possible time.
