Chapter 469 - THE GUIDANCE OF PEBBLE STONE (5) (1/2)
In the entrance area of the cave, Yu Rong did not even have the chance to get frustrated at his current situation as suddenly the sound of clanging of metals could be heard echoing inside the cave like it was a musical instrument being played.
Only this time the sound of clanging of metals did not come from his saber. Instead the sound comes from Xi Feng swords.
Many pebbles of stone hit towards Xi Feng sword. But instead of throwing Xi Feng out of control, it jerks Xi Feng swords and hand into following a certain set of movement.
The pebble of stones seems to have its own force as it forces Xi Feng to advance with his sword.
Yu Rong was shocked and then try to deflect the attack only to find out under the constant barrage of the stones, Xi Feng swordsmanship seems to have changed.
Xi Feng who is holding the sword also recognize the change in his swordsmanship. It did not seem like the Flowing Swordsmanship, yet at the same time it felt like it was the Flowing Swordsmanship
It felt like he was an Immortal treading on clouds using swords to paints the sky with the wind
This time Feng Xiao and Xu Meng widened their eyes looking at this scene. After all they are the observer.
They could see that while it looks like the pebble of stones is attacking Xi Feng, it was not.
The pebble of stones is guiding the movement of Xi Feng sword.
And suddenly the rigid moves that Xi Feng had perform earlier have changed. His sword move is now profound and magical with endless variations of attack
Even though Xi Feng palm is bleeding, he did not feel much pain. It was now that he realizes that word in the manual of the Flowing Sword Art technique.
To hold the sword loosely like one is grasping the wind.
He thought it was just some philosophy mixed with the martial art manual, since Qu Yuan is knowns as also quite the scholar but now as he no longer could exert too much force on his hand to hold the sword, he realizes what it means.
It did not mean one has to hold the sword loosely literally, it means to be like the wind, flowing freely.
Now instead of letting his hand decides where the sword should move, he is letting the movement of the sword decides where his hand should move.
It was like he was being enlightened on something about sword technique. Yu Rong on the other hand panicked now that he was face with this sudden change of moves.
One pebble moves him back but now a few dozen pebble is moving Xi Feng teaching him how to counter his saber technique.
And he could never believe that one could instruct someone with a pebble of stones
If Yu Rong hadn't seen this with his own eyes, he would never have believed that such carefree and fluctuating moves actually existed in the world.
And that is truly what the moves Xi Feng is employing right now could be called. Fluctuating and carefree.
Each time he tries to chop, the energy and force he had put in his attack would be dispersing like he was chopping through wind.
And not only that. Xi Feng swordsmanship also becomes even more unpredictable.
Xi Feng himself felt more familiar with this new moves and as he follows the direction of where the force of that stone takes his sword, he is slowly memorizing its moves
