Beast Taming: the More the Better

Chapter 150: The Mutant Sword Body! The Path of Evolution for the Little Paper Man?_3


Looking at that Mutated Sword Body, there's no doubt it's an accumulation of energy and sword techniques, which then transforms into Swordsmanship!

This means I need to start from the basics! What is the foundation of the Sword Body? It's the ability to combine energy with the sword. In terms of martial arts novels, this Swordsmanship would be driven by True Qi. Its most important function is to unleash greater power to break through an opponent's martial skills formed by True Qi, including protective Skills like a True Qi barrier. Or to strike the opponent faster and more decisively. Therefore, to perfect and create a truly new form of Swordsmanship, the first step is to learn to control True Qi! Swordsmanship is an energy-driven attack, where sword moves carry that energy.

Thinking of this, Su Ping patted his head.

"Qian Yi, activate the Skill: Sword Body!"

Qian Yi stretched out his hand, and the assembled Paper Sword once again emitted a faint light. It was extremely faint, but still quite noticeable in the dim basement.

"Qian Yi, can you make the Sword Body's energy burst stronger and more powerful?"

"WOAH?"

Qian Yi gave Su Ping a strange look. The faint light on the sword vanished, then a brilliant flash erupted as he slashed at the scarred mannequin.

Su Ping was startled.

Because he knew that wasn't the effect of the Sword Body, but the Jinge Technique! However, on second thought, it made sense. To make the energy burst stronger and more powerful, the Jinge Technique was indeed a Skill that could be referenced!

Immediately, Su Ping's eyes lit up.

"Qian Yi, can you try to use the principles of the Jinge Technique to activate the Sword Body? Don't just apply it to the sword; it needs to be within your body. You have to learn to feel the power of the Sword Body and then control its activation!"

The Little Paperman was confused; he didn't understand what his master meant.

So, amidst the Little Paperman's bewilderment, Su Ping involuntarily pursed his lips again. He thought of those discs and then said, "The Qi sinks to the Dantian! Circulate the Greater Heavenly Orbit!"

As soon as these words left his mouth, he immediately saw the Little Paperman's eyes light up.

The Little Paperman sat cross-legged on the ground, the Sword Body's sword energy slowly pulsing around him.

At this moment, Su Ping suddenly gained some insight.

The principle was actually very simple. For the Little Paperman Qian Yi, the Sword Body Skill was like a predefined instinct. Generally, it was enough for Qian Yi to activate this instinct for combat. The energy consumed per second when activating this Skill, and its power, were actually constant. But this constancy, in itself, actually restricted Qian Yi's potential. The more energy infused, the better the effect—that was a given. Similarly, the more energy accumulated and compressed, the stronger the resulting force would naturally be—that was also a given. To create a Swordsmanship Skill unique to the Little Paperman by integrating energy and sword moves, freely controlling the energy supply of the Mutated Sword Body was the absolute foundation.

Clearly, once he understood the principle, such control was trivial for the Little Paperman.

Soon, the light on the Paper Sword in his hands began to flicker. In the dim basement, it resembled a glow stick. It wasn't just the sword; even his own body pulsed with light.

Su Ping nodded with satisfaction and recorded all these changes in his notebook.

The entire night was spent on such experiments.

And the Little Paperman Qian Yi, truly worthy of being a Sword Soul consciousness born from two Spiritual Level Resources, possessed an incredibly high and potent Talent in this aspect!

The Sword Body Skill, it was clear, also belonged to sword-type Skills. Qian Yi's speed of mastery was so fast it astounded Su Ping.

After advancing to Elite Fourth Rank, Su Ping's physical body was further enhanced. Despite not sleeping the entire night, he was still brimming with excitement.

"Qian Yi, speed burst!"

Qian Yi's figure suddenly shot forward, rocketing from one end of the basement to the other at full power, taking merely three seconds.

And this speed was hardly inferior to the full exertion of an Elite Seventh or Eighth Rank Forest Wolf! Indeed, the Mutated Sword Body didn't just allow Qian Yi to comprehend his so-called 'own Swordsmanship'! More importantly, it allowed for a more refined control over his own energy. This effect was far more practical than any individual Skill! Of course, the energy consumption was also visibly significant. But Su Ping wasn't short on money now.

After Qian Yi visibly weakened, Su Ping tossed him two more Recovery Potions specialized for Undead Pet Beasts.

GULP. GULP.

Qian Yi was once again brimming with energy.

Evidently, Qian Yi had spent the entire night continuously practicing energy input, compression, and output, striving to meet the standards and requirements set by Su Ping.

And throughout that night, Su Ping was designing the first potential Swordsmanship move for Qian Yi!

He had a premonition that the Little Paperman's Evolution would very likely depend on the Swordsmanship Skills comprehended from the Sword Body as their foundation.

So, that night, Su Ping meticulously recalled the countless martial arts novels he had read. He reviewed all the famous Swordsmanship techniques described in them.

He discovered that the most basic, most practical, and simplest in principle might actually be a Swordsmanship technique used by some nameless minor character: the One-Word Electric Sword. The technique was simple yet fierce, utilizing explosive speed and concentrating it all into a single strike. With power and swiftness like thunder, it launched the most devastating killing blow! Of course, he didn't know if this One-Word Electric Sword was truly as he interpreted it. Regardless, it was from this name that he deduced the killing blow of this One-Word Electric Sword. Concentrate on a single point, achieve the pinnacle!

So, Su Ping called the Little Paperman to his side.

"Qian Yi, are you ready to learn your first Swordsmanship move?"

"WOAH!"
