Chapter 289 - An Act Of Provocation.



Chapter 289: An Act Of Provocation.

Qing Ming City.

In the shop.

Lu Ming stood in place looking sullen.

There was a card stuck in his chest...

Although Xiao-Xiaojian had no expression and he could not tell anything from the look of the Original Card, from its swift decisive move, it seemed to say that...

It had been thinking of doing that for a long time.

After all...

Lu Ming often beat him.

“Huh?

“Why isn’t it bleeding?”

Xiao-Xiaojian was surprised.

The card had penetrated his skin. The strange thing was there was not a single drop of blood.

Lu Ming was speechless.

He had no wish to talk now.

“Have you ever had a card stuck inside of you?”

Xiao-Xiaojian was suspicious.

Lu Ming was speechless.

He had a sudden urge to kill the card.

Seriously...

But he soon calmed down.

Since it was inside of him, if he gave up now, it would be even more uncomfortable. He should experience the power of the move first!

Bang!

Sword gleams surged!

A surge of energy exploded inside his body.

Lu Ming’s energy surged madly into the Original Card. It went through the Original Card and back into his body. It kept going in a continuous cycle, reaching a balance in that moment.

Buzz—

Faint golden glows flashed in the eyes.

Right then...

Lu Ming seemed to enter a mysterious state once again.

Shush!

Shush!

Countless afterimages flashed in front of him.

Many swordplays seemed to be displayed in front of Lu Ming. All the swordplays were engraved into his mind and he could see through them in one glance!

Shush!

Lu Ming threw a Sword Aura Card.

The Full Moon danced. Lu Ming swept his gaze over it and he could spot various loopholes.

That was right!

Loopholes...

Among the Sword Aura Cards that he had created, the perfect Full Moon before his eyes was full of loopholes! They seemed like clumsy and stupid swordplays!

“Full moon...”

Lu Ming’s eyes were shining.

At that moment, the countless figures that cast the Full Moon appeared in front of him...

Shush!

Shush!

The figures spread out in a split second and returned to their original body the next instant.

Swoosh!

Lu Ming lifted his hand and a Sword Aura shot out from his hand.

Buzz—

A perfect trajectory flashed across his eyes. Lu Ming sensed its power. Compared to the previous Full Moon, this one was much more powerful!

It turned out that...

This was swordplay?

Lu Ming was stunned.

Shush!

A deep sense of exhaustion overcame him.

He was in a trance.

Lu Ming felt darkness around him and he returned to reality. He was shocked to realize that the one hundred thousand points of energy in his body had been depleted completely!

That was terrifying!

It was a mighty power!

It turned out that...

This was the act of becoming one with the sword?

Lu Ming was thrilled.

The man was the sword.

The sword was the man!

When he became one with the sword, he was able to see through all the swordplays. He could easily perfect swordplays that used to be ordinary!!!

This ability... was amazing!

If he had mastered this ability long ago, he would not have been fearful of Zou Shenglong.

He could have fought him head-on!

Lu Ming was certain.

If he had cast Lightning Slash when he was one with the sword, Zou Shenglong would have had no time to react. He would not have depleted his energy by fighting off balls of lights and Zou Shenglong would not have been able to dodge the attacks made by him!!!

In the end...

It turned out that he did not have a deep understanding of swordplay!

However... Come to think of it...

He was very powerful when combined with a sword! In that case, wouldn’t a Swordsman who mastered this ability have even more powerful combat abilities?

If his Full Moon or other abilities were seen through by other Swordsmen who had achieved unison with the sword...

Lu Ming felt a lingering fear in his heart.

Fortunately, no one noticed!

It seemed that he had to be more vigilant in the future...

That was what Lu Ming had in mind.

“Remember.

“In the future, stay far away from Swordsmen who achieved unison with the sword,” Lu Ming reminded Xiao-Xiaojian.

It was better to take a detour when they saw such Swordsmen in the future!

It was too terrifying!

“Don’t worry.

“Other people who have achieved unison with their swords are not this powerful,” Xiao-Xiaojian replied.

“Is this true or not?”

Lu Ming was filled with skepticism.

“What do you think?”

Xiao-Xiaojian sighed. It explained to Lu Ming, who was a swordplay idiot, what it meant by being one with the sword!

“When a person is one with their sword, essentially, they move in synchrony with the sword. The sword functions like an arm, moving with ease!

“Do you understand?

“You can use the sword as one of your organs!

“This is simpler!

“This is easier!”

“After all, many Sword Embryos need a long time to become skilled enough to fit well with the cultivator and have a better tacit understanding of them. To put it plainly, the sword and the man are in sync mentally and physically and can sense each other’s state!

“Their thinking, mental strength and energy are all in sync!

“The prowess of the swordplay increases exponentially!

“The unison of the man and the sword achieves the effect of 1+1=2!”

Xiao-Xiaojian said everything in one breath.

“Isn’t this usually the case?”

Lu Ming was surprised.

A man and a sword. Shouldn’t they always be 1+1=2?

“Of course not!”

Xiao-Xiaojian gave him a contemptuous stare. “Some Swordsmen are very powerful, but if he uses a wooden stick, how much energy do you think he can exert?!

“Some sword spirits are handsome and powerful, but their owners are very weak and are swordplay idiots. Under these circumstances, they could not show their full power.

“This is one of the disadvantages!

“When one is not in unison with the sword, the so-called Swordsman is just a wooden pail with water. This has a lot of shortcomings and severely limits their prowess!”

Xiao-Xiaojian looked serious.

It was very serious when talking about swords.

“I see.”

Lu Ming suddenly saw the light.

It turned out that...

This was what becoming one with the sword meant?!

It seemed that when a man was one with the sword, he would be very powerful!

Therefore, the loopholes that he saw when he was in unison with Xiao-Xiaojian were thanks to Xiao-Xiaojian’s powerful intuition and swordplay foundation!

Well...

Xiao-Xiaojian was after all a six-star sword spirit!

When he was united with his sword, his abilities increased exponentially!

However...

He was not in a hurry to achieve this.

He wanted to know one thing now.

“Can you tell me... Who is the owner that you mentioned who is very weak and is a swordplay idiot?”

Lu Ming’s expression was icy cold.

Xiao-Xiaojian was silent.

Crash!

Crash!

Lu Ming dragged it to the corner and gave it a round of beatings.

Damn!

It really deserved a beating!

Ever since going through tempering, it was obviously stronger and could handle many rounds of beatings without feeling pain. In the future, he had to find other methods to deal with it.

Well...

“Xiaobai. Do we have a whip at home?” Lu Ming asked.

“No.”

Xiaobai waved her hands.

“Oh.”

Lu Ming was deep in his thoughts.

Since he did not have a whip at home, what should he use to thrash his card?

Well...

However...

He did not notice the concerned look in Xiaobai’s eyes. She looked worried.

Goodness.

It was alright that her master had stuck a card inside himself...

But, was he going to use a whip on himself?!

This...

Could it be that her master had that kind of perverted addiction?!

What should she do?

...

In the corner.

Xiao-Xiaojian floated over feeling refreshed.

Beat him?

That was ridiculous!

Was he strong enough to do it?

Its tempering was at a much higher level than Lu Ming. Hahaha!

It had a very strong fitness level now. Lu Ming, the bastard, had to give up using his fists to threaten him. It was useless! As for the durian rice...

Hehe.

It could tell that Lu Ming was bluffing!

They should see who was stronger between them!

According to the way things were currently developing, perhaps there would be a day where it would become the owner, making Lu Ming listen to it. It felt cool just at the thought of it.

Snort!

“Remember! Cultivate properly in the future.”

Xiao-Xiaojian looked proud of itself.

“Very few can achieve unison with their swords!

“Did you think that you can do it just with skills alone?

“Wrong!

“You are terribly wrong!

“Since ancient times, Swordsmen have left many legacies but very few achieved unison with their swords!

“Why? This is because it is difficult!

“I am the only one who can guide you into this state after you learn this skill!

“I am not bragging. I am the only one who could achieve this at the four-star level...”

Shush!

A white figure flew past.

Xiaobai stood on Xiao-Xiaobai and flew around the shop happily. They were like a sword gleam, in unison with each other. One could not find any loopholes. They looked like... they were one!

“Becoming one with the sword!”

Xiao-Xiaojian was dumbstruck.

Damn!

How is that possible?!

Why is it that Xiao-Xiaobai was able to achieve unison with its master?!

That imbecile?

That childish thing?

What the hell...

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Xiao-Xiaojian was glowing fervently.

“Calm down.”

Lu Ming calmed it down. “I will check for you.”

Cough, cough.

“Xiaobai,” Lu Ming said.

Swoosh!

The white figure suddenly halted. But as it was too sudden, Xiaobai came falling down with a loud shout into Lu Ming’s arms.

Lu Ming was between laughter and tears.

It was ridiculous that one had a problem stopping when in unison with their sword!

Would it still count as a success if she fell from the sword?!

Was this a joke?

“Get off,” Lu Ming said angrily.

“Okay.”

Xiaobai slid down from him obediently, while Xiao-Xiaobai floated weakly by the side.

“When did you learn this?”

Lu Ming felt amused.

This girl...

“Moments ago.”

Xiao-Xiaobai was truthful. “I noticed that you are playing with Xiao-Xiaojian and so I got Xiao-Xiaobai to try with me and it seems to work.”

“It’s that simple?”

Lu Ming was surprised.

“Yes.” Xiaobai nodded earnestly. “It was very simple.”

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

Xiao-Xiaobai glowed fervently, agreeing with her.

It was very simple.

With that...

In order to prove that they did not lie, Xiao-Xiaobai flew to rest next to Xiaobai and landed softly. Their auras, mental strengths, and states were instantaneously in sync.

It seemed like nature itself...

Becoming one with the sword!

It was feasible!

Lu Ming was speechless.

He looked at Xiao-Xiaojian instinctively. Hehe, didn’t it say that it was very difficult?

At this moment...

Xiao-Xiaojian was full of skepticism. Xiao-Xiaobai, the guy who was still in the kindergarten and had yet to grow up, was able to achieve it!?

Was it that easy?!

So much for bragging to Lu Ming just now!

How could...

How could this happen?!

No!

This must be an exception!

Right.

Xiao-Xiaobai was special. It was an original spirit body that had emerged from Xiaobai’s card. It was naturally in sync with her. It could be done easily for them. That must be it!

Xiao-Xiaojian tried to comfort itself.

“Haha.”

Lu Ming ignored it.

He pretended not to be concerned and switched on his communication device, sending a message to Lu Yan.

“Elder sister.

“Are you able to reach an unison with your Sword Embryo?” Lu Ming asked.

“No.”

Lu Yan replied quickly.

True enough.

Xiao-Xiaojian felt relieved. It knew it!

Nothing was wrong with it. It was that Xiaobai was too much of a devil!

At the thought of this...

It felt much more confident.

Look, Lu Yan was the cream of the crop. She was the most talented Swordsman but she was unable to achieve unison with her sword. It was an ancient sword spirit...

Buzz—

The wristband vibrated.

Lu Yan sent another message.

“It is useless to become one with the sword!

“Don’t waste time on this.

“I cultivated this ability during my second re-cultivation. It took up a lot of time and the increase in skill was very small. It hindered my cultivation. Once I self-destructed, I had to develop it once again. It is very troublesome.

“Work hard on your cultivation. Don’t go down the wrong path...

“I don’t know much about the Sword Card Master vocation, but it should be similar. It is more effective to self-destruct the vocation core when in danger.

“If you want to learn it, I can teach you how to self-destruct your core.”

...

Shush!

There was dead silence in the shop.

Lu Ming was dumbstruck for a long time.

Oh.

Well...

For his elder sister, whatever could not be retained after self-destruction was useless...

Xiao-Xiaojian looked dumbstruck.

Therefore...

Lu Yan was able to achieve it as well?!

But she could not be bothered to do it?

And...

She reminded him not to go down the wrong path.

Since when was practicing becoming one with the sword the equivalent to going astray?! Self-destruction was going down the wrong path! What kind of older sister was she?!

Xiao-Xiaojian had a mental breakdown.

Shush!

Shush!

Sword gleams surged.

Xiao-Xiaojian had the urge to sort it out with Lu Yan!

What kind of family were they?!

They were bullies

...

“Be good.”

Lu Ming teased. “What if I learn self-destruction from my sister?”

Shush!

Xiao-Xiaojian turned silent all of a sudden.

There was pin-drop silence in the shop.
