Chapter 444: Soul Technique Sequence
Translator: Udong_ Editor: EbonyFrost, Udong_
Every academy would have a department of elders who would study fighting techniques. Even they would need a long time to complete a fighting technique.
"I"m now only a warrior who has little knowledge of Warrior Power. If I want to improve a fighting technique, it would take me forever since I don"t have the foundational knowledge." He thought.
In terms of giving the technique sequence to the academy? Qian Jin shook his head again. Tell them about the technique Sequence of [Chain Arrows] was useless unless he hands in Wind and Cloud Warrior Power Training Scroll. But even if he did that, both would be placed on the desk of the leader of the Qian Family the next day.
"Looks like there is one way." Qian Jin smiled bitterly. "Although it is a dumb way, it is a very effective way. I need to improve my body so much so this level of pain would be nothing to me."
"Kid, your technique..." Enlak looked at the s.h.i.+ver arms of Qian Jin and asked, "It hurts, right?"
Of course! Qian Jin nodded forcefully. He was afraid that Enlak won"t get how painful it was if he didn"t use force.
"Why not improve on it?" Enlak said with an easy expression on his face. "Why not adjust it so it doesn"t cause as much pain."
Qian Jin laughed powerlessly when he heard that. "Do you think it"s that easy? Oh right, this master is so powerful that I don"t even know his limits." He thought.
"Why?" Enlak laughed: "You want my help?"
Qian Jin smiled greedily and said, "Since you said it is easy, then I"m sure you can do it. Or you are just blowing yourself up but can"t actually do it."
"Oh, really?" Enlak patted Qian Jin"s shoulder as he said, "You want to provoke my ego? Kid, that"s useless. It is not hard for me to improve it for you. Do that again. If you can win against a hundred opponents again, I will improve it for you in three days."
"A hundred?" Qian Jin curled his lips. "He must be joking. If I could take one a hundred of them at once, then I wouldn"t need you to improve it. By that time, my body would be so tough that this pain would cause minimal harm." He thought.
"Alright, kid." Enlak suddenly said. "Do you have any other questions?"
Qian Jin patted his head. He had questions prepared beforehand, but he completely forgot about them when they went off topic.
"Uncle, look." Qian Jin lightly waved his arms that he gained some control of as he drew out Dividing Metal Multi-Chop in the air.
"This? Didn"t you crush it?" Enlak was confused, but his pupil then contracted rapidly. "Kid... did... did you get a Soul Technique Sequence?"
"Soul Technique Sequence?" Qian Jin tried to recall if he read anything on this topic, but he couldn"t do so.
"After you crushed your Warrior Technique Sequence, it could regenerate quickly?" Enlak spoke so fast that it was unprecedented. "Did you get this Warrior Technique Sequence instantly? What did you feel when you got it?"
Qian Jin was surprised by Enlak. What Enlak said was all correct, as if he had seen it with his own eyes. "So this is a Soul Technique Sequence..." He wondered.
"Technique Sequence... it was a power that could be utilized in battle. They are like soldiers that listen to commands." Enlak said with a serious expression. "However, there are special sequences called Soul Technique Sequences. These sequences are alive, they were given lives when a warrior pours his will into it."
Qian Jin nodded as he listened. "That"s right! At that moment, it seemed like the Dividing Metal Multi-Chop came to life and the unyielding soul of Iron-Arm Mantis Bloodline Warriors poured into the sequence."
"There are a ton of fighting techniques in the world, but the ones that have their own wills are rare." Enlak sighed as he shook his head. "Fighting Techniques are commonly known as the techniques to kill."
Qian Jin nodded again. This was the textbook definition of Fighting Techniques.
"It was wrong, but there are always incidents. Or you can say they do exist, but not a lot of people noticed them." Enlak chopped down with his arm, and a huge crack appeared on the ground.
Land Tearing Chop!
Enlak also used his warrior power at 100,000 cycle speed, but the damage it dealt was far beyond Qian Jin"s Land Tearing Chop.
"So powerful." Qian Jin stared at Enlak. That Land Tearing Chop had an unprecedented presence to it. Qian Jin felt like it won"t stop until the entire continent was chopped in half.
"This is a Soul Technique Sequence. Many techniques don"t have it, the ones that do were either created with it in mind or got it afterward through a genius warrior." Enlak said lightly. "Soul Technique Sequences usually can only be sensed by the Golden Warrior Heart that is about to give birth to the Soul Power, yours... it is strange.
Qian Jin shrugged his shoulders since he was used to surprises. He got the Warrior-Heart that only Demon Slayers had when he was only a Demon Capturer. Although he had to thank Qian Zhanxuan"s dirty trick, the environment at Ancient Desert Sea, and the Forge Breathing Technique.
"Doesn"t matter what happened, I have to congratulate you on getting your first Soul Technique Sequence" Enlak smiled at Qian Jin. "Do you know what is the most powerful feature of a Soul Technique Sequence? Although the technique would be stronger after getting the soul, that is not the most important part."
"The key is that you can crush it unlimited times. Every time it explodes, it would regenerate quickly?" Qian Jin stated his hypotheses.
"That"s right."
Enlak gave Qian Jin a thumbs up. For him, it felt very easy to talk to this young man.
"Unlimited Explosions!" Qian Jin couldn"t hold back his excitement. What did that mean? It meant that even if he had to face a Demon Extinguisher, the outcome would be different if he could hold on longer.
If he could get a few more Soul Technique Sequenced? Qian Jin was so excited that his body started to s.h.i.+ver. If he had ten Soul Technique Sequences, he could crush one after another. After he crushed the tenth sequence, the first sequence would be ready again.
There would be an unlimited cycle if he could get ten Soul Technique Sequences.
"If I encounter that Gorilla Bloodline Warrior, the result would be different if I had those ten sequences." He laughed.
"But ten Soul Technique Sequences?" Qian Jin patted his head. "Dreaming again! I have been through so much, and I only got one Soul Technique Sequence. Uncle Enlak also said that these are rare to get."
"One more thing, the strange fighting technique you used when you were fighting with those hundred warriors." Enlak paused for a few seconds before he continued. "I think it has will as well, since I sense a little of it. Perhaps it was so small that you couldn"t even sense it."
Enlak nodded after a short moment of pause. "Maybe you don"t have a good understanding of it and maybe your environment didn"t help with the nurturing of it."
"Merging all seven b.l.o.o.d.y Combat Strikes together? The Eighth Strike?" Qian Jin"s pupil contracted as he tried to recall the scene where he used it. He was able to sense the cruelness of the strike from just thinking about it.
"In order to make it into a Soul Technique Sequence..." Enlak looked at Qian Jin seriously as he said, "You probably need to be in a real desperate battle, then that strike would have enough desperation in it to make it into a Soul Technique Sequence."
"Desperation?" Qian Jin sighed. It would be hard to find that desperation in the Endless World. Endless World was the place of hope and answers for him. It was impossible for him to find desperation here.
"Ok, I answered all of your questions." Enlak pointed at the surroundings as he said, "After looking around, you can go."
"Look around?"
Qian Jin wanted to ask that question, but when he looked at a hole in the floor, his body s.h.i.+vered. Although nothing was there, those traces seemed to come back to life as if his opponents were there.
The opponents were there, they moved and attacked. Although Qian Jin didn"t move, his spirit was fighting.
After half an hour, Qian Jin swept the sweat off of his forehead. Although he didn"t physically move, he had replayed the same battle in his head over a thousand times. If everything went just like how it went before, Qian Jin was confident that he would kill fifteen opponents before getting killed.
"No wonder Uncle Enlak didn"t clean the place up."
Qian Jin bowed with respect to Enlak who was resting with his eyes closed. He then moved out of the room and straightened his back. When he looked up, the messy room was clean again.
"Qian Jin, where is the Magic Core that I asked you to get for me?"
Akenash shouted at Qian Jin with her carving knife in her hands. It looked like she was asking for the money that Qian Jin owed her.
"Magic core?" Qian Jin suddenly remember. On top of the magic cores, he also didn"t get the energy cores from the lode that Enlak told him about. In addition, so were the notes Blake left on West Mountains and the ingredients Adams and Eulalia asked for.
