688 Cause And Effect Knife (1/2)

His gaze flashed and a moment later he heaved a sigh and asked impassively.

”Why did you think of such a method out of nowhere?”

He also found it weird. Such a Grand Path couldn't be thought of for no reason.

Zong Shou laughed, waving his sleeves and instantly a silver light flew out.

It seemed illusionary and in the blink of an eye it was in front of Aokun. That sharp intent caused even Aokun to frown.

”How quick!”

At that moment, his fingers pincered in front of him. A flying knife finally landed in his hands. It continuously shook like it was trying to break away. However, under his suppression, it used up its strength and was smashed to pieces.

Aokun's eyes turned serious.

That knife was filled with Zong Shou's Nine True Dragon Sword Intent and was at the peak Soul Realm level!

However, to him it wasn't worth a mention. What caught his attention was the speed of it.

It was really quick!

Naturally, it couldn't harm him but it far exceeded the Spirit Realm level.

When the knife slashed over he had a weird feeling, like the space the knife passed through was shortened.

Pondering on it, he realized the reason.

”It is the power of time, so that was it...”

It wasn't that the space was shortened, but that the time it went through was accelerated.

He finally knew why Zong Shou would make such a suggestion.

”That's right! What does Brother Ao think about that knife?”

Zong Shou smiled. During these 30 days, using the Book of Eon acceleration, that was a full 300 days, close to a full year. He didn't just study the Seven Star Xuan Lightning Book.

Actually, a large part of his time was spent on how to improve this Six God Defensive Knife Technique.

Using his soul to nurture the knife and link up with knife intent... That was the essence of the technique.

Along with the Sky Fox Illusionary Technique and Sword Driving Technique similar to that of a Spirit Master, it had much more ability to change directions. This knife would pretty much hit its target every single time!

However, the higher the level, the more this Grade-8 Earth Crushing Martial Arts felt lacking.

It had sufficient strength, but each time it struck, 70-80% of its strength was already consumed along the way.

This was the case when he fought Jia Mingluo. He threw out several knives and was unable to kill him, even when he was heavily injured.

It already became a weakness.

Zong Shou had wanted to modify this technique and since he was about to break through the Heaven Barrier he needed strength the most.

With this Eon Book giving him dozens more years of time, he was planning to accumulate and push some pinnacle techniques he grasped to the extreme.

His first choice was the Six God Defensive Knife Technique.

His newly grasped Time Acceleration Technique was a perfect match!

Because he was currently studying this method, when Aokun asked what he thought, he explained using the theory behind the Technique.

”It is not bad! But, the knife is a little weak and can't take it.”

He swept at the dust, frowning, ”This knife seemed like it lost many changes. Although it is fast, it isn't as nimble as before.”

Zong Shou laughed helplessly as Aokun's evaluation was spot on.

His comprehension of time wasn't sufficient. He could only accelerate time on a straight line. Once direction changed, the speed would drop.

Apart from that, because it was too fast, his soul was unable to control it, so naturally it wasn't as nimble.

The quality of the knife also wasn't ideal.

His current Cloud Flame Flying Knife indeed couldn't support the Time Power.

He had already crafted it for two years and it wasn't good enough now.

However, it could still barely be used.

He sighed, thinking to himself that in the eyes of experts it was really not worth a mention. Aokun looked over with a weird expression.

”However, I think that there are some parts you got wrong! Since you want to chase the pinnacle of speed you can't keep some changing ability. Don't you know that the fish and the bear's palm can't exist together? You just need the knife to be 30% faster and no one under Heaven Realm will be able to block it!”

Zong Shou was startled, his lips curled up. He was indeed too greedy.

Actually, he had such a plan long ago. He was only hesitating, wanting to merge the speed and change in direction perfectly.

Aokun's words totally woke him and he finally was able to make a decision.

With a thought, he waved his hand once more and another silver light flew out.

A moment later, it was right in front of Aokun. Right away Aokun pincered it lightly. However, this time there was a crisp clang and then the body of the knife exploded.

Strong sword intent surged out. Although it was instantly crushed, a thread of blood flowed from his fingers.

It was a light cut and it healed instantly. However, Aokun was in a daze.

He had predicted the future of the knife technique when he had given pointers.
