Chapter 285: Heavens, quickly take this bastard back
When Shi Xiaobai heard this, he was slightly astonished. Back at Ogre Forest, Sunless could tell that the sword move he was using was the Kun Peng Sword Technique after a few observations. Her sword talent was clearly much better than Heartless, who had to observe for such a long period of time. However, why were Heartless and Sunless able to tell that the Stewing Sword, which Shi Xiaobai theorized to be a mysterious sword technique that countered the Kun Peng Sword Technique, be part of the Kun Peng Sword Technique?
Before Shi Xiaobai could even ask, Heartless had already loudly said, “Why does your sword technique possess the unique sword intent of the Kun Peng Sword Technique?”
Shi Xiaobai’s eyes lit up when he heard this.
The sword intent of Kun Peng Sword Technique?
If that was the case, the Stewing Sword may be a sword technique that countered the Kun Sword, but it was also part of the Kun Peng Sword Technique!
Could it be that the entire Kun Peng Sword Technique was a sword technique that reinforced and countered each other?
The lower form was a Sword of Water, the middle form was the Sword of Wind, and the upper form was the Sword of High Temperatures and the Sword of Fire!
High temperatures countered water!
Wind countered high temperatures!
Fire countered wind!
Water countered fire!
The four sword techniques restrained each other, turning into a cyclic system!
This was the true nature of the Kun Peng Sword Technique?
That’s not right. High temperatures might not be the true essence of the Stewing Sword!
Shi Xiaobai was slightly astonished. He thought of another possibility. Since the Kun Sword Sunless used could only manifest the power of low temperatures, it was very likely that he had yet to grasp the quintessence of the Stewing Sword. Hence, all he could do was manifest the power of high temperatures!
Wind, water, fire were natural elements in Chinese culture. Then, to combine them into one, the Stewing Sword would slash out a sword beam that was the manifestation of a natural element!
What natural element could counter water waves, ice fronts, snowflakes, and even the Kun?
“Earth!”
Earth countered water, and also countered fish!
But it was not ordinary Earth, but burning grounds!
Burning grounds were what countered water and fish the most!
If that was the case, the true Kun Peng Sword Technique was—Earth, Wind, Water, Fire!
Earth countered Water.
Water countered Fire.
Fire countered Wind.
Wind countered Earth.
Four sword moves, reinforcing or countering each other!
No, it might not only be reinforcing or countering, there was perhaps a way for the four sword moves to combine!
Earth, Wind, Water, Fire were regarded in Buddhism as the four elements that made matter, and were also called ‘Cycle’!
“This is the true mystery of the Kun Peng Sword Technique! Combining—Earth, Wind, Water, Fire—four as one!”
Shi Xiaobai’s eyes turned bright and hot as he could not help but feel a tinge of excitement in his heart.
Heartless frowned. He had been asking incessantly, but Tu Dahei remained silent. He appeared deadpan before suddenly looking excited.
Heartless could not help but wonder what Tu Dahei was getting high on.
If Heartless knew Shi Xiaobai had figured out the hidden ancient secret of the Kun Peng Sword Technique through the use of these two sword moves, he would probably be astounded.
What sort of different line of thought and ability to come up with such fanciful and reasonable thoughts did he have?
Shi Xiaobai naturally would not waste time explaining to Heartless his complex reasoning. He only had one thought on his mind!
This King has created a sword that combined ‘Earth, Wind, Fire, Water’!
Because of this, he needed to first grasp the quintessence of each of the four sword moves!
Sword of Fire, he had grasped its quintessence for no good reason.
Sword of Earth, he had yet to grasp its quintessence.
Sword of Wind, he had observed it from Sunless for a period of time, but had never used it before.
Sword of Water, he had only truly seen it a couple of times up to now.
“Let’s start by practicing the least familiar one!”
With this thought in mind, Shi Xiaobai looked at Heartless and loudly said, “Try taking on This King’s strike!”
Heartless felt Shi Xiaobai was filled with oddness. He was in a completely passive state after using Kun Peng Sword Technique that he prided himself with. After hearing Shi Xiaobai’s declaration of attack, Heartless immediately perked his focus.
“Come on!”
Heartless was waiting alert.
Shi Xiaobai prepared slightly before slashing forward!
This strike contained a tiny hint of sword intent he obtained from observing Sunless’ swordplay.
