"Blade Drawing Technique has actually reached minor success?"
Ji Qing drew his sword from its sheath. He didn't use the Thirteen Fast Blades, nor the Hundred Battles Blade style.
But just with "Blade Drawing," his sword speed was still incredibly fast.
The so-called Blade Drawing Technique was essentially unleashing inner force in an instant, using inner force to propel the blade's speed, maximizing the blade's velocity the moment it was drawn!
Even with just minor success, the blade speed was already terrifying.
However, Blade Drawing Technique had one drawback: it only possessed the power of a single strike.
If the blade was drawn and the enemy wasn't killed, one would be in danger.
"Blade Drawing Technique has great flaws, but also great advantages. If I can compensate for the flaws and combine Blade Drawing Technique with my Thirteen Shocking Blades..."
Ji Qing had high expectations for Blade Drawing Technique.
"Great Hero Li."
Just then, hurried knocking sounded from outside the door.
Ji Qing opened the door to the Scripture Repository, and Lie Yingniang stood outside.
Lie Yingniang's face was flushed red, and a hint of excitement gleamed in her eyes.
"Great Hero Li, news just arrived that Li Tianyang has accepted the challenge, and the time and place have been set: tomorrow at noon, at the Heavenly Sun Gang's arena. Moreover, he has widely invited martial arts peers to witness."
Lie Yingniang had been waiting for this day for a long time!
Ji Qing nodded.
"What exactly is Li Tianyang's martial arts level?"
Ji Qing asked.
Li Tianyang was very famous in Anyang City. As the leader of the Heavenly Sun Gang, he was proficient in palm techniques, fist techniques, and sword techniques.
He had built the Heavenly Sun Gang in Anyang City through sheer martial arts prowess, becoming a dominant force in the region!
This kind of information could be easily inquired about.
But Ji Qing wasn't very clear about Li Tianyang's specific martial arts capabilities.
Lie Yingniang would definitely know Li Tianyang well.
Now that he was about to face Li Tianyang, Ji Qing wanted to know himself and his enemy to ensure nothing went wrong.
Lie Yingniang took a deep breath upon hearing this, calming her excited emotions. She said solemnly, "Although Li Tianyang betrayed his master, abandoned his sect, and killed my father, purely in terms of martial arts, I must admit, he is indeed a martial prodigy, his martial arts are even above my father's!"
"Among Li Tianyang's many martial arts, he is most skilled in swordsmanship. His swordsmanship actually fuses the Hundred Battles Blade and many third-rate sword techniques, drawing on the strengths of various schools. His swordsmanship is flexible and varied, capable of both offense and defense, unconstrained by sword forms. It can be said to be both offensive and defensive."
"When my father used the Hundred Battles Blade, he could initially fight Li Tianyang to a standstill. But after ten moves, he gradually fell into a disadvantage, and after thirty moves, he was defeated by Li Tianyang, severely wounded by a single sword strike. He passed away a few hours after the match..."
"Great Hero Li, your blade is indeed very fast, but Li Tianyang might not be unable to block it. Once he blocks it..."
Lie Yingniang didn't finish her sentence.
Ji Qing understood what Lie Yingniang meant.
"Alright, I understand."
Lie Yingniang left, leaving Ji Qing alone in the Scripture Repository.
"Li Tianyang is not weak. Among Second-Rate Martial Artists, Li Tianyang should be very strong!"
"He integrates the strengths of various schools to create his own sword technique..."
Ji Qing knew very well that Li Tianyang could be considered the strongest martial artist he had encountered so far!
Although his eldest sister, Lei Yu, was also a Second-Rate Martial Artist and came from a major martial arts sect, her talent was likely inferior to Li Tianyang's.
This was someone who had fought his way up from humble beginnings, with every punch, every kick, every blade, and every sword.
With Ji Qing's current martial arts level, he was confident he wasn't afraid of any Second-Rate Martial Artist.
But he still didn't have absolute certainty.
Therefore, he needed to add points!
Originally, Ji Qing had planned to save two Origin Points to add to his internal energy later.
But the arena death match was tomorrow. Once on the stage, anything could happen.
Ji Qing didn't want any surprises.
So, he had to add points.
Since Blade Drawing Technique had reached minor success, he could directly upgrade it to perfection.
Once Blade Drawing Technique and Thirteen Shocking Blades were fused, Ji Qing's strength would definitely soar.
"Blade Drawing Technique, upgrade to perfection!"
As the two Origin Points disappeared, scenes flashed through Ji Qing's mind.
He had practiced Blade Drawing Technique every day for years, as if it were his only pursuit.
Drawing his blade again and again, improving each time, enhancing himself repeatedly.
Gradually, his Blade Drawing Technique reached great success.
But great success was not the end.
Ji Qing continued to practice the Blade Drawing Technique, as if wanting to comprehend something from it. He had a flash of inspiration, but couldn't quite grasp it.
After reaching great success, Ji Qing always felt something was missing from the Blade Drawing Technique.
Then one day, as Ji Qing practiced the Blade Drawing Technique again, holding the hilt of his sword and calming his mind.
He felt the surroundings suddenly become quiet.
He seemed to hear the sound of the wind, the chirping of insects, and even the wind hitting the scabbard, causing it to vibrate slightly.
Ji Qing even felt as if the sword in his hand had come alive.
An invisible aura began to rise from him.
When this aura reached its peak.
"Clang."
Ji Qing drew his sword.
The sword strike was earth-shattering, a brilliant blade light streaking through the void.
Although it was still the Blade Drawing Technique at great success, its power instantly surged.
"Blade Drawing Technique perfected. Your Blade Drawing Technique has reached the realm of mastery. You have comprehended Accumulating Momentum! When you grip your sword, you will accumulate a momentum, an unstoppable momentum, a momentum that cuts through everything!"
"Swish."
Ji Qing opened his eyes.
"Blade Drawing Technique perfected? This time I comprehended... Accumulating Momentum?"
Ji Qing gently gripped the hilt of his sword.
Instantly, the aura around Ji Qing changed.
He seemed to have transformed into a sword, an incredibly sharp sword, as if it were about to be unsheathed at any moment!
This momentum was based on the mental level.
But it would undoubtedly be very effective.
Opponents would be affected by the "momentum" to varying degrees.
Even if the momentum was strong enough, simply releasing the sword momentum could subdue enemies without fighting, intimidate them, and make them afraid to attack.
In fact, many people in life possess momentum.
For example, high-ranking officials.
Or some royal nobles, etc.
They have been in high positions for a long time, and over time, they have developed a kind of "accumulated authority," which is essentially "momentum."
However, they find it difficult to control their momentum themselves.
Ji Qing was different.
He had comprehended "sword momentum."
As long as he had a sword, he had sword momentum, and he could use this sword momentum to suppress his opponents.
"Blade Drawing Technique is perfected, and it can be combined with the Thirteen Shocking Blades, merging into one to form a new sword technique..."
The fusion of sword techniques did not require Origin Points.
Ji Qing had perfected each of his sword techniques.
He had mastered them completely, so he could naturally fuse them.
Moreover, the two sword techniques were indeed complementary. The draw from the scabbard was already fast enough, and adding the Thirteen Shocking Blades in the middle would further increase the blade speed.
How fast would Ji Qing's sword techniques become then?
"The fastest martial art under heaven is invincible!"
This was not just a saying.
If he encountered martial artists with excellent defensive skills, or demons with tough hides, Ji Qing also had "Shocking Force."
His sword focused on speed, but it wasn't just speed; it also possessed immense power!
"The three sword techniques will merge into one, and a new name must be given."
"This sword technique can also be considered my own creation, integrating the strengths of various schools. From the moment I grip the sword, it's as if I've already drawn it, pursuing the ultimate blade speed, like a startling swan... Let's call it the Startling Swan Blade!"
Ji Qing immediately checked the information on the Demon Record.
Ji Qing: Second-Rate Martial Artist
Supreme Yang Pure Origin Skill: Perfected (Supreme Yang Inner Force, Inner Force Burst +30%, Inner Force Purification)
Startling Swan Blade: Perfected (Ultimate Moves: Thread of Sky, Shocking Force, Accumulating Momentum)
Grass on Wings: Perfected (Ultimate Move: Void Borrowing Strength)
Origin Points: 0 points
"Startling Swan Blade..."
A smile appeared on Ji Qing's lips, and then he gently shook his head.
Perhaps he wouldn't even need the Startling Swan Blade tomorrow
