She had a new idea while we were eating.
This time, we'll practice again, just as she suggested, to see if we can improve!
The process of practicing the Nameless Sword Technique was extremely arduous. In order to better train himself, Shen Jue specially set up several wooden stakes on the training ground.
The first step was to begin with basic chopping. Shen Jue, longsword in hand, stood before the wooden stake, took a deep breath, and adjusted her posture. She focused her attention on the longsword in her hand, feeling its weight and center of gravity. Then, she swung the sword forward with a sharp, clean strike, cleaving the wooden stake.
This seemingly simple slash actually contains the essence of the nameless sword technique. Shen Jue must master the force, angle, and speed of the sword technique in order to unleash its full power.
With each swing of his sword, Shen Jue would carefully adjust his posture and breathing.
Because of her mental strength, her comprehension and reflection abilities are directly proportional; she immediately corrects any mistakes she makes.
Then, with practice, I became more and more proficient. Gradually, I learned how to make my movements smoother and how to concentrate my power on the tip of the blade to achieve maximum lethality.
As time went on, Shen Jue's slashing became more and more skillful. She began to try different attack methods, such as picking, stabbing, slicing, and spinning.
She needs to carefully understand each movement in order to incorporate it into her swordsmanship.
In addition, Shen Jue also needs to learn how to maintain balance while moving quickly, and how to use his swordsmanship flexibly to defeat opponents quickly when facing multiple enemies.
After evening practice, Shen Jue would add a fatigue-relieving agent to the water to alleviate physical fatigue.
Sitting in the wooden tub, I quietly reflected on the problems I encountered during practice and how to improve my knife skills.
As she prepared to rest, she glanced at the wooden crate that automatically retrieved the fishing rod; it was all white today.
She already has enough stuff, so let it just sit there for now and don't open it for the time being.
After a day of practicing swordsmanship, even with stamina and endurance supplements, both internal and external, I felt fatigued.
Shen Jue fell asleep as soon as her head hit the bed. The bed's sleep-inducing effect was really amazing; she slept soundly until dawn.
The next day, I got up, washed up quickly, ate breakfast, and then did my morning exercise.
After my morning exercise, I stroll around my big wooden raft to digest my food.
Do some stretching to relieve muscle tension.
After all, the next day still requires me to strive for mastering swordsmanship.
Before practicing her swordsmanship, Shen Jue checked the shop as usual, and unexpectedly, she acquired two more weapon blueprints.
Now we only need two more weapon blueprints.
She could almost see the ice machine beckoning to her.
With this wonderful feeling, Shen Jue became engrossed in practicing swordsmanship.
They practiced until noon. During the practice, Shen Jue always felt that she was missing something, and each time she was just one step away from breaking through.
When she reflected on herself at noon, Shen Jue realized that she had been pushing herself too hard lately; she used to be a laid-back person.
Perhaps proper relaxation can bring unexpected results.
Shen Jue now relaxes by watering flowers, planting vegetables, and taking walks to see if the crops in her land are ripe.
It wasn't until she saw the merfolk emerge from the sea at dusk that Shen Jue had a sudden inspiration. She had an idea! Her swordsmanship, which had been stagnant for so long, now had a chance to improve.
The sword techniques I practiced before were all on those few wooden stakes. Those wooden stakes stood still in place, they were inanimate objects, and they couldn't move.
Therefore, her swordsmanship was rather rigid and lacked fluidity.
This is probably why she has never been able to learn the first move.
Talk is cheap; let Qingfeng find someone to spar with.
The more I think about it, the more I realize this method is feasible.
"Qingfeng, go down and bring up a merman! I want to practice my swordsmanship."
To add, since yesterday morning when we were practicing swordsmanship, Qingfeng has voluntarily detached himself from her wrist and is now positioned about ten meters away from her. Not too close, not too far, but close enough to protect her at top speed.
Qingfeng was incredibly bored throughout the day.
Upon hearing Shen Jue's request, Qingfeng excitedly plunged into the sea, transformed into his original form, and randomly grabbed a mermaid NPC.
Knowing that Shen Jue was going to practice his sword, Qing Feng crippled the merman and used up some of his strength before throwing him onto the raft.
This is truly a perfect sparring partner.
Night had fallen, but her extra training schedule couldn't stop.
As a result, she became so engrossed in practicing her swordsmanship that she accidentally killed the sparring partner that Qingfeng had arranged for her.
Then Shen Jue saw that the dead merman had dropped a purple treasure chest.
Upon seeing this treasure chest, Shen Jue suddenly understood how Qing Feng had managed to obtain so many purple chests and several gold chests in the sea.
It turns out that you can get chests simply by killing NPCs.
However, this is just Shen Jue's guess; even NPCs don't necessarily drop items 100% of the time.
When one sparring partner is unavailable, another one will be brought in.
It allows you to train your swordsmanship, and if your sparring partner dies, you can even get a treasure chest – the best of both worlds.
And just like that, five more days passed in the blink of an eye.
Through days and nights of relentless practice, Shen Jue gradually grasped the true essence of the Nameless Sword Technique. She also developed a method of integrating spiritual energy into the sword technique, making it even more diverse and captivating.
Shen Jue even let her imagination run wild, wondering if, in the future, her mental strength would reach a very high level, and at that time, she might be able to use her mental strength to control the long sword remotely.
The advantage of having a sparring partner these past few days was that, one morning, when Shen Jue swung her final blade, she felt an unprecedented power surge from within her.
At that moment, she knew she had mastered the first move of the Nameless Sword Technique.
After learning the first move of the Nameless Blade Technique, she no longer needed to use her hands to deal with the merfolk that Qingfeng Feng brought up.
The merman was at a disadvantage on the raft, but now that it was in excellent health, it was perfect for her to be her sparring partner.
Despite having mastered the first move of the Nameless Blade Technique, Shen Jue dared not be careless. After injuring the merman with a boomerang, he used blood to stimulate the merman's ferocity.
She, meanwhile, continued to observe the merfolk's actions. Once they launched an attack, she could react swiftly and take appropriate measures.
Sure enough, after a brief period of pain, the merman began to approach Shen Jue. Its eyes were filled with rage, as if it wanted to tear Shen Jue to pieces.
Shen Jue took a deep breath and composed herself. She knew that the merman who hadn't been tortured by Qingfeng was completely different from her previous sparring partners, and she had to go all out to ensure her safety.
Just as the merman was about to pounce on Shen Jue, she suddenly swung her long sword and slashed at the merman.
With a flash of light, the merman had one arm severed.
Taking advantage of its unbearable pain and distraction, Shen Jue struck again.
This time, the knife was faster, more ruthless, and more precise.
Moreover, although she hasn't measured her current strength, she estimates that this cut would weigh at least 300 jin (150 catties).
With that one strike, the merman was cleaved in two.
Shen Jue looked at the merman's corpse on the ground without feeling any pity.
They were originally from opposing camps. She killed these merfolk today in order to become stronger, and they will definitely hold a grudge against her. In the future, when these merfolk become stronger, she will only face the pursuit of the merfolk race.
I originally thought that the merman's self-healing ability would require her to master the third move of the Nameless Sword Technique.
But now it seems that she has clearly overestimated the strength of the merfolk. Once these merfolk are injured in vital areas, they will bleed profusely and their self-healing ability will be greatly weakened.
She also discovered that these merfolk appeared to be the failed product of some kind of energy radiation.
The way to deal with them is to strike at their vitals, not giving them time to recover, and slowly wear them down until they are defeated.
Now, she has mastered the first move of the Nameless Sword Technique and is able to apply it in actual combat.
Although her opponent was at a disadvantage, it didn't matter; this was just the beginning. She believed that as long as she continued to work hard, one day she would become stronger.
