Male Succubus Apocalypse

Chapter 107 Kendo

?

I took a nap in the pool, how did I end up here?

She was pretty nice and even reminded me to wear a mask...but that's not the point!

No, how come An Lingqing became so abnormal after becoming "normal"?

If you don't want me to have a massage, why did you bring me here? And let me continue to sleep? You even put a blanket and other things on me - Xu Heng suddenly realized that he was wrapped in a layer of cup over his slime clothes, but it was not thick and looked like a cloak. He didn't pay much attention to it for a while.

Besides, this quilt...wasn't it the one An Lingqing used to cover herself with before? No wonder it smells so good...Xu Heng! You're not a pervert...

Also, why are the people around me so far away from me... Oh wow, that Tianxin Sword Master is dressed so handsomely? Great.

"Julie, but why are the others so far away from me? If I don't listen to their explanation, I won't understand the upcoming battle. It's a waste of my life." Xu Heng looked at An Lingwu and An Lingqing who were already standing on the round stage. It seemed that they were about to start fighting. He asked anxiously while the fighting shield was not formed yet.

"Tsk, you'll have to ask An Lingqing. She used her fighting spirit to create a safe zone for you...and, can't I explain it to you?" Julie responded.

"This is different. You are a mage, not a warrior. And those people were startled all the time, which made me feel involved. Anyway, I don't understand it, but I have to watch the fun, right? An Lingqing actually thought that I was still asleep..."

Julie was choked by Xu Heng's train of thought - you were shy about being stared at before, and now no one is looking at you, and you are still unhappy, saying that it is not lively anymore.

"You can watch it if you want, or not. If you don't want to watch it, just go to sleep! The battle is about to begin. An Lingqing's state is very interesting. Looking at this battle now, it may really be uncertain who will win or lose."

……

"Boom--" An Lingwu's golden fighting spirit exploded, and the hilt of the sword in his hand extended a liquid white light, and it stabbed towards An Lingqing fiercely - the white light on the hilt turned into a spear in the blink of an eye.

But the tip of the gun passed through An Lingqing's body without any hindrance. There was no blood, and no entity. It just disappeared like foam.

How can it be!

An Lingwu immediately retreated to the edge of the circular platform and observed the platform from a point. A look of shock appeared on his face, which could no longer be suppressed.

My rules, haven't they?

Tian Zhao, it must hit, but, just now it was clear that nothing was hit! An Lingqing, where did you go!

Even the afterimage on the circular platform disappeared.

"No form"? Impossible, even if it is no form, my Tian Zhao cannot be ineffective! And she clearly only has the aura of the eighth level, which means that she may have denied her own law! How could that be...

There is no trace, no perception, just nothingness. Unless she has never existed on the platform, there is no way I can't attack her!

Can……

"But you saw me on the stage, didn't you?"

Instinct warned him again, but there was no time to think. The moment An Lingwu's perception became clear, the spear in his hand had already been launched.

The two of them collided, but there was no sound. An Lingqing's figure suddenly appeared beside An Lingwu and thrust out a sword. An Lingwu blocked it with his gun.

Once again, An Lingqing disappeared.

"This... this is impossible!" An Lingwu frowned, and the white light on the hilt of the sword in his hand turned into a long whip as he shouted, and started to whip on the round table.

Tian Zhao! Tian Zhao! Tian Zhao!

He didn't stop until the Dou Qi shield was cracked.

There was a sudden silence inside and outside the stadium.

"Snapped--"

An Lingwu threw away the hilt of the sword in his hand, squatted on the ground strangely, and began to observe the cracks on the round table.

"Hahahaha, Senior Sister, it seems that I really can't underestimate you even a little bit." An Lingwu laughed at the outsiders on the ground. "The whip marks are wrong, so it's not that my Tian Zhao is ineffective, but that I can't feel you. Not only do you have no emotions, but you also have no thoughts. Is the instinct of self-circulation a sword skill beyond thinking? Senior Sister, you are really terrible,

But if you just defend yourself, you will never be able to defeat me. A sword cannot be a match for all the weapons in the world."

"Really? Then give it a try."

An Lingqing's voice appeared.

An Lingwu laughed excitedly, and a certain wildness returned to his elegant face. White light condensed in his hands, and white shadows surpassing eighteen kinds of weapons condensed on the round table.

"With pleasure, I'll accompany you!"

……

"No, didn't An Lingqing also not see it before? They were all afterimages. Why couldn't Tianxin Sword Saint catch it this time? Is it because his suit is stuck in the crotch?" Xu Heng didn't understand the situation on the circular platform at all, and there was complete silence around him - that meant no one understood.

Just ask Julie.

"...An Lingqing is really a monster. Xu Heng, you have to cut off the last shackles of this monster." Julie said with a trembling voice.

"Ah? Blame me again? What did I cut off? An Lingqing has fallen to the eighth level, how can he be a monster? Can you speak human language?"

"You... forget it, forget it. You will be even more confused later... Let me put it this way. People have souls after all. Whether it is the activation of the law or the use of fighting spirit, it requires the flow of thoughts. Just like if you want to confirm that you have eaten an apple, you have to see the apple, feel it, and taste it. But An Lingqing's current behavior is equivalent to eating the apple directly before tracing back the cognitive process."

"Can you... make it simpler?"

"Well, it's really hard to understand. To put it simply, An Lingqing was using the sword, but she didn't actually confirm the sword, didn't think about anything, and blocked all external reflections. She didn't think before using the sword, but thought after using the sword. She forgot everything and started practicing the sword from scratch, or in other words, running the law called 'sword'.

Nature is the manifestation of law. Law does not exist because of nature, but nature appears only when the law has run its course. There is no sword entity, only one kind of running, just like what you said before with Krolitz, the origin is the end.

But it’s always a process.”

Julie was shocked again by something she had just realized, that is, she was actually using what Xu Heng called "crazy talk" to explain things.

Or rather, without Xu Heng's "crazy talk", she might not be able to understand it.

And Xu Heng's next words made her memories of all his crazy words in the past come back to her again like an explosion.

Xu Heng said: "Can I understand it this way? She has learned almost all the sword skills in this world. Now, with her emotions, she has also understood the source of sword skills, that is, the emotions and starting points of those creators. She has learned to create and even become a designer with countless blueprints.

Because I understand the underlying logic of the sword,

So, as long as she picked up the sword, she actually picked up the past, present and future of the sword. She didn't need to think about it, or she had already finished thinking about it. After combining, adding and creating, she integrated all the moves into one move, and she could use it as she wanted. Is that what it means? Just like the organs in the human body, it is not the sword that exists outside, but the Tao that does not exist inside. Just because she likes it, she puts it on the sword and turns it into the so-called sword way. Is that right?"

"This... isn't... that's right, Xu Heng! You are right! Therefore, the reason why she is only at the eighth level is not because she denied the law, but... she covered the law! She became the law! Not the law of the sword, but the way of the sword! It turns out that the basic condition for becoming a pseudo-god - enlightenment, has this meaning! Xu Heng! You are simply a genius who doesn't know how to practice!" Julie's excited voice exploded in Xu Heng's mind.

"Enlightenment? No! This world is not...Julie! Hey! Speak, how did you get enlightenment? Where does enlightenment come from? Hey, hey, hey!"

However, facing Xu Heng's questioning, Julie could only say:

"I see! I see! Then my path...@$@$$&..."

He fell into a frenzy of talking to himself.

"Hello? How are you? Why aren't you in the service area? If you don't answer me, at least continue explaining! Are you crazy? Can you find someone to report the problem?!"

……

On the circular platform, there were thousands of white lights and shadows. When An Lingwu moved, thousands of virtual images of different weapons appeared. Then they kept combining into one, whip, spear, axe, knife, mace, stick, etc., and even three of them into one, creating even more bizarre images.

An Lingqing was like a tiny boat on the raging waves. He had no majestic fighting spirit, and did not bring about any amazing visions. He only had a pink wooden sword and a thin body, flashing back and forth in the white light, as if he would be swallowed up at any time.

From the outside, it may seem that Tian Xin really took the initiative, but was just showing mercy, playing ruthless, and not delivering the final blow.

But only he himself knows what he is facing now.

He couldn't imagine or believe that what he was facing was actually a "sword", not just a sword, but all of the swords.

An Lingwu felt powerless as he watched all his attacks being broken one by one by the ridiculous wooden sword in An Lingqing's hand.

The reason why he couldn't sense An Lingqing before was because she was not using the sword at all. Instead, the moment she got the sword, she turned into something that always existed but was invisible.

He could use Tian Zhao to attack, but he had no idea of ​​the result, because An Lingqing was everywhere, yet she never really existed. She had no emotions, no images, no thoughts. She was an invisible person. It was not that she made himself imperceptible, but that she deceived his perception and was ignored.

As long as An Lingwu is still a "person", he will never be able to find An Lingqing when he disappears.

She just held a sword and rushed towards him. If he didn't attack, he would be hurt. If he attacked, her sword would be like a mirror.

Turn it into a whip spear? Then the sword force will be heavy. Turn it into a mace stick? Then the sword force will be flexible. Why is it sword force? Because An Lingqing's whole body is constantly changing in coordination with the sword. There is no fixed pattern at all.

And she seems to know that sometimes your heart attacks you with heavy force, and she counterattacks with great force. You just want to fight her off, but you don't expect that you will end up with a head-on confrontation.

The sword could not be blocked at all. She retreated, but expressed an aggressive attitude, which completely disrupted your next tactical plan.

She is anyone, and the sword is any sword. She has more than just the sword in her hand, her body and her tactics are all swords.

It was as if she was every swordsman throughout history.

Only by attacking her can you know who she is. Then at the end of the battle, it will only be a matter of trump cards. However, her trump cards are infinite!

"Xiao Wu, there is no such thing as the best weapon in the world. Every weapon has its own characteristics, strengths and weaknesses. That's why we have moves to make up for or overcome weaknesses, and thus approach perfection in battle. If we combine all weapons, the final result will be that none of their strengths are strong, and none of their weaknesses are weak." An Lingqing's voice surrounded An Lingwu.

Still, have you discovered it?

An Lingwu sighed in his heart, but he had to continue to maintain the lie, to buy time and find a way to break the deadlock.

The so-called weapon of the world is against the rules. It seems that the whip gun combines the characteristics of the whip and the gun, but it is just a compromise. It is not more flexible than the whip, nor more penetrating than the gun.

It was just that when facing a single weapon, and having the advantage of sword moves that had no historical basis for dealing with whips and spears, he could catch her off guard. In addition, with Tian Zhao's rules, he could limit An Lingqing to the point where she could not think, and thus he could use moves that existed out of this world to defeat her.

The more weapons are fused, the more compromised they become, just like constantly taking one-half, which will only make them dumber and stupider in the end.

But if combined with lies, it can have a confusing effect. In a short period of time, the opponent will not be able to find an opponent who knows how to use changing weapons to practice with, and will be trapped in a dead end.

So the biggest advantage of the so-called tool of the world is its “strangeness”.

Especially towards An Lingqing.

This was the tactical strategy that Tian Xin had specially arranged for his senior sister, which included sword techniques and psychological tactics against people. He had never been a swordsman, but a combat scientist and a chess player, and often his opponents were just chess pieces, not worthy of playing against him.

But now, An Lingqing is different. Not only has she seen through the lies, but she has also reached a new realm that even An Lingwu finds difficult to understand.

There was no routine. The monster created moves on the spot according to his changing weapons. The sword was even more changeable than the changing weapons. Unless he could comprehend weapons other than swords like An Lingqing, it would be impossible to crack it.

This was a fundamental defeat. Her every move had a purpose and was coherent and natural. She had integrated all her experience, understanding, and logic of battle into the sword.

An Lingqing directly overturned the chessboard!

No, An Lingqing was more than that. She was also very happy and enjoying it. Her sword was quite willful and she often deliberately created weird moves.

Is she using me for training? Is she playing with me? Not only did she control the rhythm of the fight, she also knew how to force me to use more moves that she wanted to see.

One, to be superior to you! I can play! You don't play!

Pure and serious, a character that even if she were all swords, they were reforged and unique.

Nature and rules?

She is practicing the so-called rules of the sword with her nature, instinct, and heart tempered by the sword! Sword skills that transcend thoughts and emotions! Just like fish belong in the sea, and birds belong in the sky.

And An Lingqing, you belong to the sword, reshaping your home and origin, born by the sword and die by the sword.

"Senior Sister! You are so happy! What makes you so happy?" An Lingwu shouted, leaving no strength behind and using all his fighting spirit.

"It's it! It's her! And it's him! Xiao Wu! Don't cry if you lose!" An Lingqing responded loudly.

"I'm so happy! How could I cry? What's more, I will never cry again! Senior Sister! Let's just have fun!"

The author said: I have always wondered what the process of the protagonist's enlightenment in fantasy novels is like, and how it should be presented. The Tao can be simply explained as a law that can be concrete but cannot be fully explained, while enlightenment is an abstract but limited thinking process. As long as it is a person's "enlightenment", it is impossible to completely break away from sensibility. How should the combination of the two be presented? How can it be truly written?

I thought that if I could write it down, it would be very interesting - both in terms of the text and the writing process.

It’s just that it’s impossible to really practice in the real world and materialize the Tao through supernatural powers. We can’t really experience that world, but through fantasy, perhaps we can realize our imaginary vision.
