C14 Musing
When night fell, Yang Junyi returned to the inn where he temporarily stayed.
Lying quietly on his bed, the bright moon hung high in the sky outside the window. Yang Junyi began to revisit today's battle.
Even though he had been beaten up, his harvest today was enormous.
Firstly, he obtained the exclusive martial skill "Putting Mountains Crash", and secondly, during his battle with Gong Xiuwei, Yang Junyi discovered some problems that he had not noticed in the past.
When earth elementalists faced people of the same profession, the weaker party was already in a position where they were destined to lose.
The speed of earth elementalists was publicly recognized as the lowest of the few attributes. This virtually stopped the nimble fighting style of earth elementalists. In fact, in a team battle, the earth element cultivator's goal was to be a meat shield. With a "Shield Guard", he held a heavy weapon in front of the team.
Because of the existence of the 'Shield Protection', which was comparable to a fortress, almost all Earth elemental cultivators fought in a grand manner, which was exactly what Yang Junyi despised the most!
Zhao Qiancai was a man with a beard and Wu Gou Shuang Ming was a man made of snow and snow.
The silver saddle shines on the white horse like a shooting star.
Killing a person in ten steps, unstoppable for a thousand miles.
After this incident, he would go to the depths of his concealment to conceal his name.
This was the battle Yang Junyi pursued!
Yang Junyi could not imagine what it was like for other cultivators to face a battle of similar attributes. However, if the earth elementalists were to fight head on, then in a battle of the same attribute or rank, the result would be the same as today's battle between Yang Junyi and Gong Xiuwei. The weaker party would lose without a doubt.
"What method is there to break through the defense of a cultivator with a higher cultivation level?" Yang Junyi muttered to himself. Although earth elementalists generally have the strongest defense, such an advantage could only be found within cultivators of the same level. In the face of cultivators stronger than him, the defense that earth elementalists were so proud of was as thin as a piece of white paper. Furthermore, Yang Junyi knew that other than earth-attribute cultivators who had their own defensive methods, cultivators of other attributes also had their own defensive abilities. For example, the wind-attribute "Barrier of Wind", the water-attribute "Rippling Water Door", and so on.
How could Yang Junyi break through these defenses?
Could it be broken by force?
If he didn't have enough strength, what should he do?
Just like today's battle, Yang Junyi's attack was unable to break through Gong Xiuwei's defenses.
"The earth elementalists are slow, but I have Gravity Subversion, so my speed is comparable to the wind element. This is my advantage, but the greatsword in my hand is too heavy, and if I wanted to change the force of the sword, I would have to exert more force to control it. This undoubtedly affects the flexibility of the battle. " Yang Junyi calmly analyzed his situation, his black eyes flashing with wisdom. "It seems that I have to give up on my broadsword and replace it with something similar to a light sword. This is a more suitable method of combat for me!"
While muttering to himself, Yang Junyi suddenly leapt up from his wooden bed. He lit a lamp and came before his desk.
The desk was simple and crude. On it was a thick notebook and a book that was made of some unknown material. From the light of the lamp, one could faintly make out the words "Earth Element Fantasy" on the book. Beside it were two brushes made of animal hair. Other than this, there was nothing else.
The thick notebook was something that Yang Junyi had specifically used to record the insights of the instructors in the classroom, as well as some of his own experiences. He had also read about some of the useful information that he found useful in the other books.
As for the "Earth Fantasy" on the desk, it was borrowed by Yang Junyi from the academy's library. The book was written by the Earth Grandmaster, and it described some of the Earth Grandmaster's theoretical views and fantasies.
Opening his notebook, Yang Junyi held a brush in his hand and wrote on it, "The martial arts of the world are fast and unbreakable. The profound meaning of a sword: fast, accurate, ruthless!"
Any young man who had been deeply poisoned by Wuxia novels was familiar with these two lines.
Under the heavens, martial arts could never be broken by speed. This was not an empty phrase, but any child with the slightest knowledge of physics would know that if a small stone were to fall from the sky at an extremely high speed, its destructive power would be extremely shocking.
Yang Junyi did not know from where he came to this conclusion, but he remembered what was written above: If one's speed reaches a certain limit, then a small stone falling from the sky can easily pierce a human's head!
There was more than one example in the real world that could prove that the faster you moved, the greater the damage.
This also showed that the relationship between speed and lethality was proportional. Therefore, the phrase "all the martial arts in the world can never be broken" was definitely not a random nonsense made up by some 'imaginary person'. It was an iron-like fact that could withstand 'scientific testing'.
Profound Truths of the Light Sword: Fast, accurate, ruthless!
However, the phrase "all martial arts in the world cannot be broken if one is fast" was an iron-like fact. The word "fast" was the profound meaning of the light sword, and it was worthy of its name.
As for the 'accuracy'...
Yang Junyi wrote down his own thoughts beside the 'Quasi-Blade' in the sword of the Light Sword: "If you are unable to hit your enemy with a fatal blow, then everything will be for naught. The so-called lethal blow is equivalent to zero!"
The brush moved up and down the page, finally stopping beside the word 'vicious'.
Yang Junyi had no idea what this' vicious' Yang Junyi really meant.
"Ruthless to yourself?"
"Ruthlessness to the enemy?"
Yang Junyi wrote down his doubts, "How can one be considered ruthless?"
Yang Junyi placed the brush gently across his notebook and began to ponder over this question.
Time slowly passed. The moon moved to the west, and the lanterns stopped burning. Everything fell into silence.
After a long while, Yang Junyi awoke from his contemplation. "Perhaps this is not a question that can be answered in a short period of time. We can only wait until later to find out the answer."
After lighting up another lamp, Yang Junyi closed his notebook, moved to the side, and gently put it aside. Then, he took out the "Pressing Mountains to Collapse" and began to study it.
Today, Gong Xiuwei had used his actions to prove the practicality of Pasting Mountains Crash. To Yang Junyi, Pasting Mountains Crash was similar to the "Charge" skill used by the Warriors in the game.
According to the introduction, avalanche was caused by the eruption of battle qi, causing the body to be able to explode at an astonishing speed in a second. Then, with the help of inertia, at the moment of sprinting, the ejected battle qi would be controlled to form a shield guard, and the shield would once again be condensed on the left elbow of the enemy to deal a heavy blow, causing the enemy's blood and Qi to surge, creating a temporary dizziness effect. Then, the enemy would be attacked with the weapon in his right hand.
There were three stages of training: The first stage was to learn how to release battle qi from the ground, allowing one to unleash an astonishing speed.
The second stage is to learn how to condense the battle qi that erupts into a shield to protect yourself, because when you enter the sprint state, because of the speed, you are no longer able to change your direction or move midway. When facing an enemy's attack, if you do not have the powerful defensive power protected by the shield, the result will be very bad.
The third stage was elbow strikes. In reality, both the first stage and the second stage of defense were prepared for this final attack. Only by relying on the inertia of high speed could this normal attack form a formidable attack power.
"If I am able to grasp this move, it will definitely be a killing bracelet that can change the situation." Just by looking at the introduction, Yang Junyi had already understood the profoundness of this move. Think about it, if you were to suddenly use this move when you were in the middle of a battle, it would definitely deal a heavy blow to the enemy and change the entire situation.
As his brush moved forward, Yang Junyi had already established a imaginary enemy in his mind. At this moment, he was using Pangolin Mountain to engage in an intense battle with it.
Through this method, Yang Junyi slowly unearthed the advantages and disadvantages of sticking close to the avalanche.
"The occurrence of avalanche limits its ability to be used frequently. Surprisingly or unexpectedly, the most perfect chance to be killed would be by the avalanche. This also means that when using avalanche, one must grasp the timing and the situation to reach a certain degree of keenness!"
"If you stick to avalanches, if you don't move, then it's fine. If you move, then mountains will collapse and the earth will crack, irreversible!"
Yang Junyi spent a large amount of money to write down these words as the starting point for his notes.
On the notebook, the words were like a mountain, exuding a grand atmosphere.
Of course, Yang Junyi did not forget to write on the board, "The points above are purely personal. They need further confirmation after completion!" These words reminded him of this.
