Chapter Forty-Nine: Natural Energy, Ask!
Under the moonlit night, Mifune and Gen Shenji sat opposite each other.
The stunning moon-slashing knife still slowly emerged in the heart of the source god machine, and the moon in the sky was still so white and bright. But looking at the moon in the sky, Yuan Shenji's heart will always think of the moon slash for no reason.
"Mr. Mifune, is this knife a sword by a sword hero?"
After a long silence, Gen Shenji stared at Mifune in front of him. If the previous sword technique is still in the understanding of the source god machine, then Mifune's slashing of the moon already has a bit of a mysterious meaning in his eyes.
"The heart is in harmony with the sword, and the mind is in harmony with the sword."
"Thanks to the blessing of His Excellency Daimyo, Mifune cut the shackles in his heart, and only after feeling it in his heart did he wield such a knife."
Mifune nodded, his body shattered not only by the samurai armor, but also by the white bandage that had been wrapped around his head. At this time, Mifune no longer looked like a samurai, but just like an old farmer who had worked in the fields for many years.
"If I want to fully master this sword, I still need to refine my kendo."
"But at this time, I should be worthy of the name of a sword hero, I have no fear, even if it is an illusion, I should be able to cut it with one sword!"
Mifune told Gen Shenji all about his state, and when he slashed the moon, he seemed to be saying goodbye to the first half of his life. That knife is the epitome of the first half of his life, and it is also the pursuit of the second half of his life.
"But Mr. Mifune's chakra doesn't fluctuate much?"
Yuan Shenji frowned, the knife of the three ships soared for seven thousand meters, but the source of the god machine could clearly perceive that the chakra on the three ships did not improve much, and even the chakra contained in the moon slashing knife was not much.
"There are still chakras mixed in, but the sword qi does not rely on the existence of chakra."
"In the beginning, I used the sword qi in the mouth of the daimyo as wind pressure, and I worked in that direction."
"No matter how fast the speed is, no matter how strong the power is, the wind pressure is always limited. I tried to mix the chakra into the wind pressure, and the sword qi began to break through the length of three meters. ”
"When I was fighting against Sanshoyu Hanzo, the sword qi at that time could only be regarded as a special energy of chakra mixed with wind pressure. If you really want to tell the truth, it can probably only be regarded as a secret art. ”
"After returning to the Land of Iron, I cut off the water flow and slashed the waterfall with the sword in my hand. Under the tremendous pressure of the waterfall, it was already an extreme test to continue to extend the chakra, and when I couldn't improve the chakra, I began to try to integrate my will into the chakra. ”
"It's very difficult to integrate your will into the chakra."
"It's like, this chakra, which was clearly born in our own body, seems to have someone else's will?"
Mifune unreservedly informed Gen Shenji of his recent practice. And for the first time, Gen Shenji knew that Mifune had already begun to try to integrate his will into his own chakra?
Gen Shenji digested Mifune's words, and Mifune continued to speak.
"Since that time, I have actually understood His Excellency's concern about chakra, and there is definitely something hidden about the origin of this chakra that we don't know. Especially for a swordsman, if he can't even control his own energy, the sword in his hand may not know when it will backfire on him. ”
"So, how did the gentleman do it?"
After listening to Mifune's experience these days, the expression on his face became solemn.
He had been trying to extract energy beyond the chakra for a long time, but the harvest was only small, even if it was the lack of contract that he had always hoped for, he had never accomplished such a thing. And listening to Mifune's meaning, he seems to have achieved some results?
"Leave it alone!"
"The sword just now, because of his lack of kendo attainment, will be mixed with chakra."
"But to a greater extent, I used the energy that existed in the heavens and the earth, and the daimyo should have seen that the slashing moon was only about the size of the katana in my hand when it flew out."
"It's just that my will is attached to the sword qi and constantly gathers the surrounding energy, which is why I have such a sword."
Mifune spoke softly, and when Chakra was not enough to rely on, he chose to manipulate the outside energy of his own will. As long as his will is strong enough, it is impossible for his kendo to be subject to chakra!
"The energy of the outside world, the energy of nature......"
Gen Shenji never thought that Mifune's kendo cultivation had actually touched the use of natural energy.
"Is the energy of the outside world natural energy? Lord Daimyo, if you want to get rid of the chakra, you may be able to try using natural energy. Compared to chakra, the natural energy gives me a much more intimate feeling, and most importantly, my will can be imprinted into the natural energy. ”
"According to what His Excellency Daimyo said before, the sword heart, the sword intent, and the sword body are the three elements that constitute the swordsman."
"If you have sword intent, I still don't have a clue. The sword heart is nothing more than its own will, and if the sword body is used, I am ready to try to temper myself with natural energy, and even gradually replace the chakra energy in my body. ”
Mifune heard Gen Shenji's muttering, and his eyes flickered. Even if you just listen to the name, you can hear that this natural energy should be a kind of energy from the natural things of heaven and earth.
"I also want to replace Chakra with natural energy, but I can't feel the natural energy of the outside world at all!"
Listening to Mifune's words, Gen Shenji couldn't help but show a wry smile. He didn't know that natural energy was purer, but unlike chakra, which everyone can get started, natural energy seemed to naturally have a threshold!
"It should be my own lack of will."
"Before I broke through to Jian Hao, I couldn't feel the natural energy in the air. It was only after I deliberately exercised my will that I vaguely felt the natural energy of the outside world. ”
"The threshold of this energy is limited by willpower."
Mifune looked at the wry smile on Genjinki's face and pointed out the way forward for Genjinki.
"So, what is willpower?"
Gen Shenji looked at Mifune, Mifune was the forerunner, and he was just walking along the road that Mifune had flowed out. The master is the teacher, and the half-division before the source god machine is not worthy of the name until today.
"It is the perseverance in the heart and the firmness of one's own path!"
"I practiced kendo in order to protect the land of iron and to protect you, the Daimyo. My sword is a sword of protection, and in order to protect the land of iron and the daimyo, even if the entire ninja world is against me, I will not hesitate to pick up the sword in my hand. ”
"I firmly believe that the sword in my hand can open up a future for the land of iron and the daimyo."
"This is my sword heart."
"Isn't there a ninja among ninjas? Kenshin, willpower or something, in my opinion, is your own way, the more firm, the stronger the willpower is naturally strong! ”
"So, what about the way of His Excellency Daimyo?"
Mifune looked directly at the Source Divine Machine, if it was the Source Divine Machine that woke him up before, then now it was his turn to dial the Source Divine Machine. In other worlds, their relationship is called, Daoyou.
"My Word ......"
Confusion finally began to appear in the eyes of the Source God Machine, what was his Dao? Become an immortal?
No, it was just a subconscious thought that he was afraid of death, it was just that he had died once and never wanted to experience the great terror between life and death. In his thoughts, only by becoming an immortal can he not die!
That's not a Tao, it can only be regarded as the desire and pursuit of the Source God Machine, and even a kind of desire!
"Mr. Mifune, I need to go back and think about it, think about what my Tao is."
Yuan Shenji's face was in a trance, and he didn't know how he returned to the Daimyo's Mansion, this night was destined to be sleepless for Yuan Shenji!
