Chapter 284: Production lines (2/2)
Jack has never learned the exclusive style of swordsmanship since he cultivated. All he learned are basic sword moves and tried to perfect them himself.
His life-goal was to create his own sword style.
But he understood that to create his own sword style, he has to first understand the sword deeply and has to learn the potential and the limits of the sword.
At least, the potential and limits on the sword in his hands.
He always wanted to know why is Sam stronger than him even when their cultivation levels are the same. There is still a huge disparity in the fighting prowess. Sam's moves no matter what type of weapon he used are always efficient, precise, and on point. He can use his body to extreme limits and to his full potential.
He uses all his senses no matter the situation.
He questioned himself, why his moves are not as precise and efficient? Because he doesn't know which move to be performed to be really efficient.
So, to know that, he has to explore. He has to try the unknown, he has to get out of his comfort zone and since he already came across some skills to the water natured swordsmanship, he wanted to start his exploration with the water.
And to his luck, there is a waterfall, like this, which is a natural blade stream. That is why he came here.
Jack stood at the edge of the waterfall, watching the water streaming down. He can feel the sharp aura from afar. It felt as if a sharp blade is coming at him.
There are many swordsmen watching it, Jack observed it for a bit and took off his upper-robes. He only wore his pants and held the Black Meteorite sand and walked towards the waterfall.
While everyone was watching his action, he leaped and landed on a flat rock on which the waterfall is hitting.
He crossed his legs and sat down as the water hit directly on his head. Right now, his body is completely covered with the spiritual energy shielding from the damage at least partially.
He closed his eyes as he started slowly retracted all the spiritual energy that is shielding him. He held the sword in his lap tightly.
Everyone was shocked at the scene. Even the people who are standing under the waterfall were stunned.
They are also experiencing the sharpness of the waterfall. But they didn't dare to withdraw the shield of the spiritual energy.
”Is that guy nuts?”
”Yeah, it must be. He would die if he stays there long. The blade waterfall is not something to be underestimated.”
The people nearby burst into endless whispers.
Jack, felt the sharp currents of water striking his body and slowly lacerations formed on him, but he didn't even flinch. His spiritual energy slowly covered the wounds so that they would heal slowly. Since it is only a fleshly wound, it would heal in a day even if he didn't do anything to it.
But there is still some blood loss after every small laceration.
Jack started observing the sharp currents of the water that are striking and slicing his body. He could feel the water being rigid, strong, and sharp when it slashed his body and immediately turning into a formless flow of water.
He could also feel the versatile flow of water before hitting him, but turning into a strong and rigid strike at the exact instant it touched his skin.
He let the sharp water ravage his body. It is as if countless swords are slashing him in various spots.
He could feel the precise incision on his shoulders at the same time a cold and hard slash on his chest. A precise but shallow strike which only pricked his skin on his back.
Every current of water that hit him is like a sword. Slicing, piercing, slashing. Every injury suffered, he could feel as if a sword had struck him.
It didn't feel like water hitting him at all. It is more like a swordsman is attacking. Jack visualized the attacks one by one.
In short, he is not experiencing a waterfall, rather he is using himself as a test dummy to take the attacks of a swordsman so that he can observe that person's moves and learn them. Steal them to make it his.
