Bab 295: Chapter 295: Su Ming's Advice to Chen Xin, Breakthrough!
As Su Ming and Ning Rongrong stepped out of the room and arrived at the main hall, they saw that Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong had been waiting for them for quite some time. Su Ming could clearly sense the frustration coming from the two Titled Douluo, as if they were silently cursing, "You little brat, you've got guts!"
Ning Fengzhi, on the other hand, smiled warmly at the two of them. "Su Ming, Rongrong, did you both sleep well last night? You both look a little tired. How about staying until tomorrow?"
Ning Rongrong quickly responded, "Father, that's not necessary. After lunch, Su Ming and I will leave. The villagers from Saint Soul Village need to be settled as soon as possible."
Feeling awkward around her father and grandfathers after what had transpired, Ning Rongrong felt uncomfortable staying any longer. Their knowing looks made her feel even more embarrassed.
At this point, Gu Rong commented with mock anger, "Su Ming, you really are something! You little brat, I knew I wasn't wrong about you!"
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong's face turned beet red, and she hid behind Su Ming, too embarrassed to say a word.
Feeling a bit awkward himself, Su Ming quickly changed the topic. "Well, Bone Grandpa, will you be accompanying us, or will Sword Grandpa be coming along?"
Chen Xin, who was standing nearby, calmly replied, "I'll go with you this time."
But Su Ming could swear he detected a hint of killing intent from Chen Xin. Was it just his imagination?
A short while later, Su Ming, Ning Rongrong, and Chen Xin arrived at the piece of land near Heaven Dou City that belonged to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
"Alright, take a look around. This entire area belongs to the clan. Does it meet your needs?" Chen Xin asked indifferently.
Su Ming glanced around and found the land to be perfect—fertile and close to the city. Overjoyed, he said, "Sword Grandpa, this is perfect! I'll make some modifications, so the villagers will have an easier time settling in."
With that, Su Ming focused and used his spiritual power to sense the boundaries of the land. Then, he raised fences around the perimeter, placing the village entrance directly in front of them. As he continued, small wooden houses with three bedrooms and a living room began to rise at intervals across the land. The furniture would be added later.
Chen Xin was utterly shocked by this display. Could Su Ming's martial spirit be used like this?
"Su Ming, is this also one of your soul skills?" Chen Xin asked.
Su Ming shook his head, smiling. "No, it's just a practical application of my martial spirit, not a soul skill—just something convenient."
After a moment of thought, Su Ming turned to Chen Xin and asked, "Sword Grandpa, I have a question. You're known as the Sword Dao Master. How many self-created soul skills do you have? How deep is your understanding of swordsmanship? Or do you still rely mainly on your soul skills in battle?"
Chen Xin was taken aback by the question but answered truthfully. "They call me the Sword Dao Master because, so far, no one has surpassed me in the art of the sword."
"My Seven Kill Sword is one of the top assault-type martial spirits. If not for the secret techniques of the Clear Sky Hammer, the Seven Kill Sword might have been considered the strongest weapon spirit in the world."
"As for my understanding of swordsmanship... it's hard to say. I've been seeking enlightenment for years, but I always feel like I'm one step away. That's why I've been stuck at rank 96 for so long."
"I do rely on my soul skills a lot. Self-created soul skills are rare, and it's hard to develop one that suits me."
Su Ming nodded inwardly, thinking that Chen Xin, despite being hailed as the Sword Dao Master, still had limitations. From Su Ming's perspective, he hadn't fully tapped into the true potential of the sword.
Though Su Ming wasn't a swordsman himself, he knew a few things that might help. After some contemplation, he said, "Sword Grandpa, I have a few thoughts on swordsmanship. Would you like to hear them?"
Chen Xin was surprised by this. If it were anyone else, he might have taken this as an insult. But knowing Su Ming, he was curious to hear what he had to say. "Go ahead."
Su Ming nodded and explained, "In my view, swordsmanship is rooted in the heart. The more confident you are in your own strength, the more power you can draw from your sword."
"When using a sword, don't just treat it as a weapon—see it as an extension of your body, like an extra limb."
"In essence, the key to swordsmanship lies in your mindset. Only with a calm heart can you walk further down the path of the sword. The essence of the sword is formless, and only by feeling it with your heart can you truly understand its mysteries."
Su Ming paused, feeling that his explanation might have been a bit abstract. Then, he remembered a sword technique from his past life and added, "Sword Grandpa, here's one more thing. When you wield your sword, try focusing all your power into a single point and strike with extreme speed. Keep stacking that force repeatedly."
"Think of it as breaking through a surface by focusing all your strength into a single point."
Chen Xin, hearing Su Ming's words, suddenly felt as though something clicked. He closed his eyes, as if he had grasped something important.
Ning Rongrong, watching from the side, asked in a whisper, "Su Ming, what's happening with Sword Grandpa?"
Su Ming, equally surprised, replied, "It looks like Sword Grandpa is having a breakthrough."
Ning Rongrong's eyes sparkled with admiration as she hugged Su Ming's arm tightly and kissed him on the cheek. "Su Ming, you're amazing!"
Su Ming felt a bit embarrassed. He had just said whatever came to mind. However, there was one thing he was certain of—most swordsmen were indeed driven by their beliefs. The stronger their convictions, the more they could unleash the full power of their sword, especially in moments of desperation.
Watching Chen Xin closely, Su Ming thought, It seems Sword Grandpa is really onto something.
He was soon distracted by the sensation of two soft cushions pressing against his arm. Realizing what was happening, Su Ming scolded himself internally. When did my resolve become so weak? I used to be so pure!
After what felt like a long time, Chen Xin suddenly opened his eyes, and a surge of powerful soul energy shot into the sky.
