Chapitre 21: Chapter 21: Hundred Steps Flying Sword_1
Translator: 549690339
Ling Xiao's "lottery" wheel began to accelerate, spinning rapidly.
Honestly, what he wanted the most right now were pills.
However, if he could draw other interesting and useful things, it would also be a good thing.
There were many items on the big wheel that Ling Xiao found interesting, such as a set of intermediate-level cultivation technique called "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique."
This kind of technique was not available in the Ling Family's Book Collection Pavilion and could be considered extremely rare.
According to the description of the technique, once Hundred Steps Flying Sword was mastered, one could take a person's life from hundreds of meters away.
This seems even more powerful than a bow and arrow.
A bow and arrow can't be controlled; once shot, it's gone.
But with the "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique," you can control it. As long as you cultivate Gang Qi, even if the flying sword is shot out, you can still manipulate its speed and flight trajectory.
That's awesome!
"Hundred Steps Flying Sword! Pills!"
"Hundred Steps Flying Sword! Pills!"
These were the two things Ling Xiao wanted the most at the moment, so as the wheel spun, he couldn't help but shout them out, hoping to get them smoothly.
"Beautiful! It's the 'Hundred Steps Flying Sword'!"
Ling Xiao jumped up excitedly.
Although "Hundred Steps Flying Sword" could not improve his cultivation level, its potential to greatly enhance combat ability was truly significant. Imagine, before your opponent even gets close, you could take their life with a flying sword – incomparable indeed.
"Congratulations to Mountain and River Master for drawing the intermediate-level technique 'Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique.' Since this is your first use of the lottery function, you are also rewarded with a flying sword."
That was an unexpected surprise.
Ling Xiao looked at the introduction of the flying sword—
Gentle Breeze Sword: A fine-quality flying sword, to be exclusively used in executing flying sword martial arts, increasing flight speed by twenty percent and technique power by twenty percent.
Note: Products obtained from the Mountain and River Space have special effects only valid for the Mountain and River Master. If gifted to others, the special effects will disappear.
Moreover, if the item is stolen, you can obtain an identical one from the Mountain and River Map, without any limit on the number of times.
Ling Xiao could understand this note. That meant even if someone else stole this sword, it would just be a regular sword without the added benefits of increased flight speed and technique power.
This was quite good, as possessing valuable items could be a curse, and Ling Xiao was not yet able to safeguard his treasures. It was quite possible that someone might steal this flying sword from him.
But let them steal it – it's just an ordinary steel sword, not worth fretting over, since the Mountain and River Map would provide a replacement anyway.
So there was absolutely no need to worry.
This Gentle Breeze Sword clearly corresponded to flying sword martial arts, and "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique" was one of them.
It seemed to have a rather specific use, but even so, it was already sufficient.
Ling Xiao was not a greedy person. With these, his combat strength would definitely increase a lot. Now facing Ling Chong, he wouldn't need to lift a finger; with one strike of the flying sword, Ling Chong would be finished on the spot.
After obtaining "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique," Ling Xiao put aside other tasks. He exited the Mountain and River Map and found a quiet place to start cultivating this intermediate-level cultivation technique.
Unlike other martial skills, "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique" also had nine levels to reach Great Perfection, but it had only one move – the flying sword.
After all, it was only an intermediate-level technique; you couldn't expect it to be too amazing.
After spending two days, Ling Xiao managed to cultivate "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique" to the ninth level of Great Perfection.
With the analysis and practice from the Mountain and River Martial Soul, cultivating such a singular technique was really easy.
The most noticeable feeling was that the higher the level of "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique," the faster the sword flew, and the greater its power. After reaching the ninth level of Great Perfection, one sword strike could kill a martial artist at the Martial Vein Third Layer Peak.
Unless the opponent had cultivated some powerful defensive technique.
Squawk—
Suddenly, Ling Xiao heard a sharp cry from the sky.
He looked up and saw a Level 2 Peak Black Eagle monster beast.
This Black Eagle had already circled above Ling Xiao's head for the second day, seemingly looking for the right moment to strike and kill him.
With its presence, Ling Xiao's cultivation over the past two days had been quite frustrating, forcing him to change locations several times and nearly causing him to experience cultivation deviation.
Today, this beast dares to come again, just in time to test the power of the Hundred Steps Flying Sword!
With this thought, Ling Xiao stood up, holding the Gentle Breeze Sword in his hand, he stimulated the True Qi within his body and executed the "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique".
Whoosh!
The Gentle Breeze Sword transformed into a shadowy figure, slashing through the air.
The piercing scream cut through the atmosphere as it rapidly closed in on the circling Black Eagle.
Compared to bows and arrows, the advantage of the "Hundred Steps Flying Sword" lies in the fact that it doesn't require aiming. As long as the target is locked on, unless the opponent can block or dodge, it's bound to hit.
"Ga—"
The speed of the Flying Sword was too fast, and by the time the Black Eagle noticed, it was too late to evade. A streak of white light pierced through its body, splattering blood everywhere.
"Ah, I didn't hit the vital spot!"
It was Ling Xiao's first time executing the Hundred Steps Flying Sword, and he was evidently a bit unaccustomed, so the sword pierced through the Black Eagle but failed to hit the vital spot.
After all, that creature was equivalent to a Martial Artist at the peak of the Martial Veins Second Layer—a Level 2 peak Monster Beast, so without hitting its vital spot, the sword couldn't take its life.
Enraged, the Black Eagle swooped down, clearly determined to stake its life in a fight against Ling Xiao.
However, this Black Eagle's brains couldn't match those of a human, and it didn't realize that the Hundred Steps Flying Sword could return after being released!
Release!
Retrieve!
That is one complete attack!
Therefore, as the Black Eagle accelerated in its dive, the Gentle Breeze Sword had already returned, this time piercing directly through the Black Eagle's head.
This wasn't Ling Xiao's control; because before mastering Gang Qi, it's impossible to project energy outside the body.
It was because the Black Eagle itself changed position, causing the Flying Sword to pierce its head as it returned along the original path.
"Lucky!"
Ling Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
It seems training is one thing, but actual combat is another.
During these two days of practicing the "Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique," he had been using stones or trees as his targets.
These are fixed targets, and naturally, they are easier to hit.
It seems like to fully master the Hundred Steps Flying Sword Technique, he would need to try attacking more Monster Beasts!
The Black Eagle's body had many valuable materials. If sold at the market, they could fetch at least a thousand taels of silver.
After all, it was a Level 2 peak Monster Beast.
Its blood and bones could be used in alchemy.
Throwing the Black Eagle's corpse into the Mountain and River Map, Ling Xiao, wielding the Gentle Breeze Sword, searched the Fulong Mountain Range using the "Soaring Cloud Step".
He was searching for the younglings of Monster Beasts, and of course, he could also hunt a few Monster Beasts below the third level to sell for money.
After all, selling Cultivation Technique Secrets was a bit too conspicuous. It was fine to sell Basic Martial Arts and low-level skills, but selling intermediate-level Martial Arts would make going unnoticed impossible.
"Eh? Those are Black Eagle chicks!"
While Ling Xiao killed the Black Eagle, he had wondered whether it might have left behind any chicks. Thus, he specifically searched the area it frequently circled.
Sure enough, he found a nest on a cliff ledge with four chicks inside.
Without a second thought, Ling Xiao placed them into the Mountain and River Map, then let the Level 2 Herder take care of them.
These Black Eagles not only have materials that can be used for alchemy, but once they grow up, they'll be equivalent to Level 2 peak Monster Beasts without any need for cultivation and could serve as allies in crucial moments.
