Chapter Twenty-Five: Graduation? Thinking too much, let's make up for it
Seeing his best friend flee the scene, Ian cast an apologetic look and then returned his attention to the dark-haired girl across the small table, looking much more serious than before. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
"Fei'er, what's going on in this state?" he asked straight to the point.
"Doesn't it feel bad?" Fei Er didn't answer his question directly: "The flow of the whole world seems to have been slowed down, and it seems like a month or even months have passed even though only one day has passed. ”
"Ahh Ian nodded: "To be honest, although I have gotten used to it now, I was in the mood to die at the beginning." ”
"What the hell is going on?"
"Sword intent, you already feel it, right?" the girl still didn't answer.
"Is that really what you call the sword intent hidden in my soul?"
"Yes. ”
"I'm in this state because of this thing?" Ian asked.
"Neither right nor true. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Ian. Phil paused, and she slowly closed her eyes, as if recalling some experience that had happened in the past. Then, she said lightly.
"Obviously, I don't have that realm, but I just got the power of that realm in advance. Do you think this comes at a cost?"
Ian was stunned for a moment, and he muttered, "The price?"
"Yes. Fei'er opened her eyes, and a look of depth was revealed: "This is the price you have to pay." ”
"Since the beginning of written records, there has always been only one criterion for judging the level of mortals. ”
"Have you stepped through the gate of the Holy One? ”
"The Gate of the Sage?" Ian exclaimed, "Wait, isn't that the same as only two realms for mortals?"
"That's right. The girl nodded: "Those who have not stepped through that door are mortal, and those who can sympathize with the world after stepping through the door are the saints." ”
Isn't this equivalent to the acquired and innate theories in the previous life?
Ever since Ian began to learn swords with Fei'er, he has actually always wanted to try to incorporate some of the martial arts theories from his previous life into his swordsmanship.
However, it's a pity that he was just an otaku in his last life after all, and I'm afraid he can talk about theory for a few days and nights, but when it really comes to practical operation, I realize that I don't even know anything about it.
Now that he suddenly heard this statement, although he knew that it was probably different, his mind inevitably leaned towards the martial arts theory of the previous life.
"So I've already stepped through this door?"
"Hmm. The girl nodded: "But you have passed by cheating, so you are in such a dilemma now." ”
"Cheating?"
"Ian, what do you think the sword intent is?" the girl asked solemnly, "Do you think the sword intent is such a good thing to generate?"
Without waiting for Ian to reply, she continued, "Since the beginning of human records, there have been less than 300 people who have been able to hone their sword intent and cross the Sage's Gate. There are no more than 5 people at the same time, and in some eras, there is not even one. ”
"Not to mention a 16-year-old guy like you. ”
"Wait. Ian cried out: "Didn't you have it yourself before the age of 16, and I was born with it, so I can't count it at all." ”
"I'm in a normal situation for some special reasons. ”
"Well, let's not talk about who is more like a monster yet. Ian shrugged his shoulders and brought back the missed topic, "You mean to say that I opened the door of the Sage with the sword intent in my soul in a daze, and then fell into this state?"
"Hmm. Fei'er nodded, "Sword intent is a power born from the belief and will of the swordsman. Before crossing the Sage's Gate, the sword intent itself could not interfere with the present world, and it could not bring a significant increase in strength to the swordsman himself. ”
"After possessing the sword intent, the average swordsman will continue to use his belief and will to gradually nurture and purify the sword intent, so as to promote its growth and maturity. ”
"This process can often take more than a decade or even decades. ”
And the swordsman himself will also run into it in the process, slowly digging out the characteristics of his sword intent, and after finally mastering this power completely, he will use it to attack the gate of the sage. ”
"And you. Fei'er paused: "You were born with a mature sword intent, and the moment it was exploded, you directly blasted open the door of the Sage." ”
"Obviously, he doesn't even have the faith and will to give birth to sword intent, let alone run in with his own sword intent and dig out his sword intent characteristics. ”
"So that means I've taken a lot of steps to the sky?" said Ian, the corners of his mouth twitching.
"Yes. Fei'er raised her glass and closed her eyes: "Your current state is caused by the extreme inconsistency between your realm and strength. It's as if a student who has just started the first year of the year has directly received his diploma. ”
And that's why I chose you in the first place. Fei'er added silently in her heart.
"So that's the price. Ian looked at the almost frozen world in front of him and said, "Is there any way to fix it?"
"I can only make up for it. ”
"It's enough to make up for all the lessons that I missed before, and really ascend to this realm in its entirety. ”
"Doesn't that mean there's no way?"
"I've got you covered. Fei'er said confidently: "Control your own strength, and help me kill all the people who come to me without killing or maiming people." ”
"Are you sure you just want to find a thug for yourself?" Ian couldn't believe his ears when he heard such a ridiculous approach.
"That's the best training method you've ever had!" said the expressionless girl as a matter of course, but Ian could see a hint of banter in her eyes.
This girl must be deliberately teasing me......
"Thought I was lying to you?" The keen girl instantly sensed Ian's thoughts, and she explained, "Do you think letting go of your hands and feet and fighting demons will help you ease this state?"
"No, it's like being addicted to drugs, once you've indulged and returned to normal, you'll only feel more and more estranged. ”
"For you now, the best thing is to limit yourself, with the least force possible, the slowest speed, little by little to run in with the normal flow rate of this world. ”
"Isn't that what I'm doing right now?" Ian said with a wry smile.
"It's different, Ian. Fei'er said solemnly: "The feeling of being tied up in life is completely different from being tied up in battle. Of course, the effect of sharpening is also completely different. ”
Suddenly, a gleam flashed in Ian's eyes, and he felt that what the girl said seemed to have some faint truth. Previously, when he was in the rescue trial team, he once entered a strange state after suppressing his strength and speed.
It's just that at that time, it was to save physical strength and delay time, so I didn't think about it in this regard.
"In fact, I've tried it before. Thinking of this, he spoke.
"Don't compare mortals to demons. Phil shook her head, she had heard Camilla talk about the rescue at the beginning, and she also guessed Ian's strategy for conserving his strength at that time: "Mortals are much more fragile than demons, and they have to be very, very careful when fighting. ”
"Phil, when did you come up with this method?" Ian asked excitedly. He faintly felt a little admiration, it seemed that this girl was not so unreliable sometimes.
"Hmm. Phil's black jewel-like pupils visibly deflected to the right.
"After I beat 12 people into the hospital......"
