Vol 26 Chapter 40 (2/2)

“The Unicorn’s Heart?” The golden-robed emperor nodded slowly “Your sword truly is ephes quite uncomfortable for your foe”

“Senior, your sword-art is honorable, direct, and do before I was able to win through one fortunate strike,” Ning said In truth, when he had first started fighting he hadn’t been very familiar with the Unicorn’s Heart Naturally, it was very hard for hily familiar with this technique, he had ih the emperor’s throat with one blow

The [Na

The first stance was the Heartsword stance It required the wielder possess absolute control over his his sword, allowing his heart to be in control of the sword and the world around it

The second stance was the Killsword stance It was an utterly do and powerful stance

The third stance was the Great Firmament stance It allowed the user to create a world unto itself In truth, this was the upgrade version of the Heartsword stance It perfected the technique, giving it even hter

The fourth stance was the Horizon’s Edge stance It could be described with one word – fast!

The fifth stance was the Silent World stance It could be described with one word – savage! The fourth stance and fifth stance were both attacking stances that were ainst different types of foes Some foes could only be dispatched with speed, others required doe sword-arts

The sixth stance was the Unicorn’s Heart stance This represented an evolutionary transforhter than the Heartsword stance; the Heartsword stance only gave absolute control over the sword, whereas the Unicorn’s Heart was able to produce all sorts of marvelous effects

It could easily block, deflect, and redirect attacks It could also kill foes!

This sword-art was ephemeral, unpredictable, and incredibly abstruse It was extremely hard to coacy and the book he had left behind were highly focused on defense Once a defensive technique reached the later stages, it would also gain so akin to the flavor of the Unicorn’s Heart After all, truly powerful sword-arts all had things in common

Thus, after five hundred years Ning was able to master this sixth stance

“The first stance, Heartsword stance The third stance, Great Firmament stance The sixth stance, the Unicorn’s Heart stance All of thehly defensive techniques that can also be used to slayknew quite clearly that these three stances were fundahtly controlled sword-arts that sought out flaws to use for sure-fire kills

The Killsword stance, Horizon’s Edge stance, and Silent World stance were stances that were co back

“You have defeated me and passed my trial However, you olden-robed eacy of the Eternal Emperor and become his personal disciple! Emperor Mirrorsnoord-arts were so sword-arts of all the Endless Territories If you become his disciple, your future prospects shall be limitless”

“Understood” Ning nodded

Ning currently had a total of three Mirrorsnow Paintings The first held the golden-robed emperor, the second held the assassin, and the third held the fisherman

The assassin’s sas a bizarre sword that was focused on murder and death In a world of darkness, the assassin would suddenly appear and disappear out of nowhere, his sword-light flashi+ng as he stabbed at Ning

Ning would be forced to stand there, Frostice Sword in hand, blocking each and every strike from the assassin The assassin’s sword-arts were on the exact saolden-robed emperor’r sword-arts, but they had cohts to Ning, allowing Ning to gain hts into the Unicorn’s Heart At first, he still found hi style However, he slowly becaly easy to deal with

Snick! Swish!+

Sword-light flashed as it stabbed straight through the assassin’s throat

The assassin was incredibly slender His face was covered with scales, and his eyes gloith green light This was the first tilimpse of the assassin’s face

“You won Defeat the other three and you shall receive the Eternal Eacy” The assassin spoke in a hoarse voice, then disappeared once more

The estate-world within the third painting This was the world of the fisherman

The two clashed for quite soer seemed as relaxed and carefree as he had been in previous battles This ti’s expressions were similarly soleh-intensity battle gradually began to wear both of them down

It ainst the other two had lasted for less than one hour

“The fisher, and he uses that fishi+ng pole of his to fight id but sometimes flexible, whereas my sword is incredibly sharp and resilient… and yet, I’ to understand

The fisherman’s sas quite similar to his own Unicorn’s Heart Both were unpredictable, fluctuating sword-arts that sought out a chance to deliver a single lethal strike

By comparison, the fisherman’s sword had a ‘softer’ defense, but once he reached an opponent as a match for him the fisherman unleashed virtually all of the potential within his sword-arts, resulting in Ning being completely unable to harm him

Finally, the two came to a halt

“Your sword-art is incredibly profound and mysterious It truly is one of the most profound sword-arts of all the Endless Territories However, my oord-arts were passed down by the Eternal Emperor himself If you wish to defeat me, you’ll need to improve a little bit an to fish again “You can leave now”

Ning wasn’t disappointed Instead, his heart was filled with joy This battle with the fisher dramatically in his Unicorn’s Heart
