"The sword is different from other weapons, the sword has two edges, it can stab, it can be sharpened, and it can be split...... Every swordsman has his own sword habits, for example, some samurai are good at using a big sword on the battlefield, and that kind of big sword is more about strength, so there are not so many requirements in terms of skills. However, some samurai are good at using long swords, so they may be a little weaker in strength, but their skills are more complicated......"

"I know these things, you must have studied them before, you have a good foundation...... But let me tell you, these are just the most basic theories, and they are still too far from more advanced swordsmanship!"

"It's not that those who use a great sword are necessarily inferior to the long sword, and the long sword must be inferior to the great sword in strength. Most of the martial arts in the world are like this, no matter what weapon you use, or sword, or sword, or whatever, after you reach a certain level, you are no longer obsessed with the changes in the weapon itself, the skill or the power......"

"That's what I'm talking about...... Outside in!"

"For example, yesterday, I cut your sword into seven or eight with only two swords...... What's that for?"

Mr. Qiu looked at Luo Di with a smile.

Luo Di thought about it, his face was already red, but through the mask, Mr. Qiu couldn't see it, he tentatively said: "I heard that the speed of the master's sword will be very fast, could it be that you shot seven or eight swords in a row in an instant, the speed is too fast, I didn't see it?"

"Hehe......" Mr. Qiu smiled lightly and said gently: "No! What you said is just a legend, a samurai, no matter how fast he strikes, even if he is the most famous samurai in the empire who are famous for his 'fast', it is impossible to draw a sword a few times in an instant, and others can't even see it." The speed of the sword, which is invisible to the naked eye, is unlikely. After all, we are human beings, not gods!"

"Speaking of speed, a swordsman's fastest speed is at most a sword strike, so fast that the opponent has no time to react - to talk about seven or eight times in an instant, the other party can not see it only from close range, that is already a myth and not a fact. ”

"I just said it, outside in!"

"Inside?" Roddy frowned.

"Yes! When I say inner, I mean internal strength! Or a kind of soft force, yin force, dark force!"

"Let's give you an analogy...... You've seen the river, the river rushing down, all the way to the smooth - we liken the power of our sword to a river...... You, and swordsmen in general, are like that...... But have you ever thought about it, there are whirlpools in the river! The whirlpools don't flow all the way forward, but spiral! Then the power is different!"

Roddy seemed to realize something, and couldn't help but nodded.

Mr. Qiu squatted down, suddenly stretched out his hand, inserted his five fingers into the dirt on the ground, and then grabbed a handful of dirt and crumpled it into a ball in his hand.

"You go on!" Mr. Qiu said, and the mud ball in his hand was thrown towards Roddy.

Roddy reflexively caught the mud ball, and then couldn't help but shake it twice in his hand.

He lowered his head and pondered for a while, and couldn't help but say: "I seem to understand a little, if you want to make an analogy, then we ordinary swordsmen shoot, just like this mud ball you just threw over, the direction of force is obvious! There are traces to be found, thorn is thorn, split is split, chop is chop! But after reaching a higher realm, the situation is different, such as this......"

Roddy raised his hand and threw the mud ball out of his hand, but this time his fingers used a slightly different force, and the mud ball was thrown out, not in a straight line, but as if it was spinning.

A smile appeared on the corner of Mr. Qiu's mouth, and he said softly: "Yes, yes, you comprehend quickly." ”

Luo Di was in a good mood and said loudly: "Then I understand, yesterday you were able to cut my long sword into seven or eight pieces with two swords, not because you were quick to make a sword - in fact, you also made two swords, but your strength is more ingenious, so you used dark energy to break my sword into seven or eight pieces!"

Luo Di pondered for a while: "Or, it's no longer a swordsmanship, but a strength technique - this skill, even if it is not used in swordsmanship, it can be used in other weapons, right?"

In the end, Roddy's tone became more and more excited, and his voice became more and more cheerful.

Mr. Qiu nodded, but said with a straight face: "These are not profound things, generally speaking, when your swordsmanship has reached a certain level, you can also comprehend these, even if you really comprehend these things one day, you are just an ordinary swordsman, even if you are better than other swordsmen, you are not a real master......"

Roddy immediately asked, "What about ...... What counts as a real master?"

Mr. Qiu didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically, "Do you think that samurai, warlock, which kind of person is more powerful?"

Luo Di thought for a moment, sighed and said, "Of course it's a warlock!"

"Why?"

Roddy pouted - he couldn't see this action. But his voice was dejected: "Isn't this obvious? A high-ranking swordsman, with a single sword, can kill at most several enemies." But a high-level warlock, a spell, can sweep a piece, and it can make a landslide and lightning fire......"

"Huh. Mr. Qiu smiled: "Since you think that a swordsman is not defeated at all when he meets a warlock, then why are there still samurai in this world?

Roddy was stunned for a moment—a question he had never thought about.

"You're watching!" Mr. Qiu put away his smile.

The long sword in his hand suddenly stood pointing at the sky, and his face was solemn. At this moment, the whole world seemed to have changed in Roddy's eyes!

Mr. Qiu is still the same Mr. Qiu, but in Luo Di's eyes, it is not like that at all!

If Mr. Qiu didn't have any momentum on his body before, it was like a sharp sword hidden in a scabbard - then at this moment, this sharp sword has been unsheathed!

Mr. Qiu's whole body was filled with a piercing murderous intent!

A strange scene appeared in Roddy's eyes -- it seemed that with Mr. Autumn as the center, everything around him was revolving around Mr. Qiu! Although the yard was still the same yard and the trees were still the same tree, in Roddy's eyes, the whole space seemed to be distorted! Everything seemed to be attracted to Mr. Qiu! It was as if there was a big hand that had been pulling everything around him towards Mr. Qiu!

Although this was just a fantasy for a moment, Luo Di didn't dare to be careless, held his breath, and stared at Mr. Qiu with his eyes, for fear of missing a glance!

"Kill!" Mr. Qiu snorted lightly, and the long sword in his hand suddenly raised, and a sword light slashed straight out like an entity!

With a bang, that sword light actually split into a huge light blade and slashed out into the sky!

Roddy's eyes widened as he looked at the dazzling blade of light—even in the daytime, the light was so clearly visible!

Luo Di is sure that if he is hit by that light blade, let alone the long sword in his hand, I am afraid that the whole person, along with everything in this courtyard, will end up in pieces!

Roddy grew his mouth and muttered, "This ...... This is...... What? Is this also swordsmanship?"

Mr. Qiu smiled lightly, pulled a sword flower with the long sword in his hand, and gently and skillfully withdrew it into the scabbard.

Luo Di was still sighing: "Where is this still swordsmanship? This is already a spell...... No, or is it magic...... But, this is not swordsmanship at all. ”

"You're wrong!" Mr. Qiu patted Luo Di lightly on the shoulder, and said with a straight face: "This is indeed swordsmanship! And it is a kind of advanced swordsmanship! Whether you cultivate a sword or a sword, the martial arts have reached a high depth, this is the extreme of power!"

"The extremes of power?" Roddy didn't understand.

Mr. Qiu said: "You just said that a magician, or a warlock, can make a landslide crack lightning and fire, but those are no longer normal powers! A person, no matter how great the strength of the physical body itself is, cannot reach that level! Therefore, whether it is magic or magic, it is a supernatural power!"

"Supernatural powers?"

"Yes! Our world is actually a world composed of energy! The rise and fall of the stars, the rise and fall of the tide, the ebb and flow of the tide, and the change of the seasons...... All the ways of nature are energy, they are all power, and whether it is magic or magic, what is studied is not enough is how to use this power. ”

"What about martial arts?"

"This is the difference between martial arts and magic!" Mr. Qiu's tone showed a sense of pride: "Martial arts is not about learning how to use other powers! Martial arts is about cultivating oneself and making oneself more powerful! We warriors are cultivating our own real strength!"

"Own power?"

"That's good!" Mr. Qiu said lightly: "A warlock, or he can achieve the same level of energy as the sword I just chopped, but that is not his own strength, but he uses magic to use a certain energy in nature - but I am different! The sword just now is completely the power in my own body!"

Roddy's eyes widened as he looked at Mr. Qiu carefully.

His own strength—oh my God, that earth-shattering sword, the power of that sword! That sword that contained super destructive power! Was it all the power in his own body?

Mr. Qiu smiled lightly: "You don't need to be so surprised, the reason why I am telling you this is to let you understand one point - a warrior is not inferior to a warlock! If a warrior cultivates to a high depth, then his strength can completely surpass that of a warlock!"

"But...... It's amazing!" Roddy sighed.

Mr. Qiu shook his head: "This is nothing, you must know that the ancient holy sword warriors can split the mountain peaks with one sword and pierce the city wall with one sword! That is the ultimate of the real martial arts! Compared to them, our current strength is nothing at all." ”

"Split the mountain, pierce the wall......" Roddy's eyes flashed, his eyes were full of excitement, and his mouth muttered to himself.

Mr. Qiu looked at the obsessive young man in front of him, smiled slightly, and then said, "Okay, now let me ask you a question! What does the power of a samurai come from?"

"Huh?" Roddy was stunned for a moment, and blurted out: "Of course it's from a strong body!" But at this point, Roddy immediately sighed: "But it's not right...... Many of my swordsmanship teachers in the academy are much stronger than you, but they are definitely not as powerful as you, and they will never be able to split a sword like you just now. ”

"Yes, strength doesn't just come from muscles. ”

"Where does that power come from?" said Roddy, confused.

Although Mr. Qiu didn't really teach him any moves and swordsmanship, these words were undoubtedly equivalent to pointing out a path to the advanced martial arts path for Luo Di, and opening the door to another hall for Luo Di! Luo Di was fascinated and fascinated when he heard it!

Mr. Qiu pondered for a moment and said, "This question is not something that can be explained clearly in a few words...... Well...... In this way, you and I are destined, although I can't accept you as an apprentice because of an oath I made back then, but I can give you a small gift. ”

With that, Mr. Qiu stretched out a finger, which had already been pointed at the trick, and the finger had hit Roddy's forehead and eyebrows.

This finger seemed to contain some kind of strange power, and that power actually seemed to pass through the silver mask on Luo Di's face! Luo Di only felt a pain in his eyebrows, and then snorted and fell down softly.

Mr. Qiu looked at Luo Di in front of him and said softly, and sighed: "This can be regarded as a seed of strength for you! In the future, if you can truly comprehend the advanced martial arts, then I will give you this seed of strength, and you will benefit immensely!"
