Lightness in Heaviness
"Wow, boss, how can you be so amazing?" Beibei excitedly rushed over.
Lin Feng smiled and said, "Over the past year, I have combined my strength and Dragonblood Battle Qi to a near-perfect degree. Then, relying on my understanding of the earth, I broke through the simple levels of strength and battle qi, and comprehended the realm of ' Lightness in Heaviness ' that my ancestors of the Baruch Clan spoke of. Only then did I come up with this ' Ben Lei ' move."
Since comprehending the "Lightness in Heaviness" level, Lin Feng arrogantly named this move "Ben Lei," a name Lin Feng felt was quite good.
The most basic aspect of sword training is the combination of strength, battle qi, and the use of a heavy sword.
Using a greatsword is not about rigidly relying on brute force to swing it.
Instead, the goal is to conserve every bit of strength to increase the speed of the greatsword, while simultaneously ensuring that strength and fighting spirit work in perfect harmony with the greatsword.
After more than a year, Lin Feng finally mastered the Black Obsidian Heavy Sword, wielding it with effortless skill and without wasting a single ounce of strength. He maximized the power of the Black Obsidian Heavy Sword using his limited strength and battle qi.
However, this is only the basics.
Beyond the first level, the second level represents a new realm.
Lightness in Heaviness, it sounds simple.
In essence, it is the perfect control of fighting spirit and power, just like a flood that is constantly being accumulated and blocked. When the dam breaks, the power that bursts out is terrifying.
The "Ben Lei" move works on this principle.
It sounds simple, but it requires a very solid foundation to use. Without a perfect grasp of fighting spirit and power, you can't use this move even if you understand the concept.
Lin Feng had read many cultivation novels on Earth before, in which swords all had sword techniques, and there were even sword cultivators. Although the historical backgrounds were different, a sword was definitely not just a piece of material or a weapon for killing.
A sword possesses its own intent!
For example, Lin Feng's current understanding of "Lightness in Heaviness" is an application or manifestation of sword intent.
"That's amazing! Boss, is this the most powerful way to use a greatsword?" Beibei exclaimed in surprise.
Lin Feng smiled and shook his head, saying, "It's still a long way off. According to my family's records, the use of heavy weapons can be simply divided into three levels: the first is reaching a perfect level of skill, the second is Lightness in Heaviness, and the third is 'momentum'."
"Power?" Beibei, somewhat confused. "What's that?"
"The 'momentum' is to Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth, and to use the power of heaven and earth for my own purposes." Lin Feng had read through Coiling Dragon, and although he had not yet grasped the essence of "momentum," he could still give a simple definition of it.
As autumn deepens, even the ancient trees in the Magical Beast Mountain Range have mostly turned yellow and withered.
It is now late autumn of the year 10001 in the Yulan Calendar. Lin Feng Lin Feng has been in the Magical Beast Mountain Range for more than a year and a half, but he has only traveled five or six thousand miles.
My daily focus is on cultivation, and I only travel about ten miles a day.
In the dead of night, when all was quiet, Lin Feng sat cross-legged under a large tree in the core area of the Magical Beast Mountain Range that required four or five people to encircle, deducing the profound mysteries of the Mysteries.
During the day, Lin Feng mainly focused on cultivating and comprehending realms to improve his warrior strength. But at night, Lin Feng would sit cross-legged and slowly deduce the profound mysteries of the Mysteries.
Lin Feng has already grasped the basics of the Life Law, the Laws of Fate, the Laws of Wind, and the Laws of Water.
Lin Feng has only just begun to understand the Laws of Water and the Laws of Fate, and it is unlikely that he will make much progress in a short period of time.
As for the Laws of Wind, Lin Feng simultaneously began Mysteries the mysteries of "speed" and "slowness." Lin Feng understood that the more advanced the mysteries of Mysteries, the harder it was to fuse, so he wasn't in a hurry to master any one of them. With the Wind element, Lin Feng Mysteries verified the Mysteries of "speed" and "slowness," comprehending and fusing them simultaneously. Lin Feng believed that once he had mastered the fusion of the two Mysteries, he could directly receive the baptism of the Laws of the World and become Midgod.
The wind element has nine profound Mysteries. Comprehending one completely can make one Lowgod, while comprehending three or fully integrating two can make one a Midgod.
Of course, Lin Feng spent the most time and energy on the Life Law over the past year.
The Four Edicts do not have a clear Mysteries classification, but rather form a whole. Fully comprehending this whole will lead to Paragon, which is the special feature of the Four Edicts.
However, it is precisely because it is a whole that it is difficult to get started. Even if one manages to get started by chance, one does not know how to break through.
Imagine an ant standing in the center of a round cake, surrounded by identical round cakes, with no idea where to begin eating.
This is also why the Four Edicts are far more difficult to cultivate and comprehend than the Seven Elemental Laws.
The reason Lin Feng was able to grasp the Life Law and reach the bottleneck of becoming a god in one fell swoop was mainly due to his past life experiences and the interpretation of life on Earth, in addition to Cesar's unintentional guidance.
Of course, the reason Lin Feng devoted most of his energy to the Life Law was not because he hoped to break through the bottleneck and become a god in such a short period of time.
The reason Lin Feng devoted so much energy to the Life Law was because the Life Law were the highest level of the Laws of the World that he had comprehended. He had been studying how to integrate the Life Law that he had comprehended into his attacks and create his own ultimate moves.
After a year and a half of continuous experimentation and practice, Lin Feng successfully created a move called Soul Devour.
This move, "Soul Devour," is a Soul Attack that incorporates the Life Law.
Lin Feng created this move entirely because he was Highgod by a move that Delia suffered from in the Infernal Realm in the original book, which nearly killed her.
While the Life Law do not delve as thoroughly into the study of the soul as the rules of death, they still contain considerable knowledge about the soul.
After all, the Life Law and the rules of death are two opposing rules; without "life" there is no "death," and without "death" there is no such thing as "life."
As dawn broke, Lin Feng opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.
A gentle morning breeze blew, and a few withered leaves twirled and slowly drifted down from the sky. Lin Feng watched these Luo Ye in silence.
Suddenly, Lin Feng casually flicked his wrist, and a withered leaf was swiftly caught in his hand, then tossed it away with a "thud!"
"Snap!"
A large tree that required four or five people to encircle was snapped in half. The withered leaves that caused the tree to break also turned into powder.
"It turns out that 'even falling petals and plucked leaves can cause injury' is just a simple application of the principle of ' Heaviness in Lightness.'"
Lin Feng finally grasped the essence of "Heaviness in Lightness".
In fact, although "Lightness in Heaviness" and "Heaviness in Lightness" are two completely opposite states of being, they are actually connected in principle.
For Lin Feng, who has already grasped the concept of "Lightness in Heaviness," understanding the concept of "Heaviness in Lightness" is not difficult.
"Boss?" Beibei opened her sleepy eyes and asked in confusion, "You're awake? Why didn't you call me?"
In fact, Beibei would naturally wake up every day when Lin Feng woke up. It's just that Beibei always had to wait for Lin Feng to call him before he would open his eyes. But today, Lin Feng didn't call him.
Lin Feng continued his arduous training, traveling only about ten miles each day, spending most of his time in rigorous practice. Lin Feng gained new insights into the use of the "heavy sword" almost daily. Lin Feng was completely immersed in the wonderful feeling of diligent training and progress.
