Chapter 12 Death Crisis (Part 1)

"Dumb, stop now." Owen yelled. If this continues, the compressed infuriating energy may be too dense and his hand will be blown to pieces.

     However, Ah-Dai could no longer stop. After his infuriating energy was compressed, it was no longer the gentle energy running in his body. Ah-Dai opened his eyes wide and shouted: "Ah" and suddenly swung his right fist towards the opposite reef. A white light beam with a diameter of only about five centimeters shot out. After the light beam hit out, Ah-Dai's whole body went limp and he immediately collapsed to the ground.

     "Boom, boom" two loud noises in succession made Owen open his mouth. Even if Dumb could blow the rock in front of him to pieces with one punch, he wouldn't be so surprised, but the vision in front of him really couldn't believe it. That's not big. The middle of the reef was hit by Ah-Dai's fighting spirit. The fighting spirit passed through the reef and hit the sea hard, splashing up a water column as high as ten meters. There are no cracks around the pierced rocks, which shows how concentrated the power is.

     Owen stood there blankly, taking a long time to react. The blow that Ah-Dai just sent out actually reached the level of his five successes. In other words, the fighting spirit that Ah-Dai sent out just now reached 200% of his own level. Ah, Dumb, Owen took a step forward, held Dumb in his arms, stretched out his right hand, pressed on Dumb's Dantian, and explored the condition of his body. Duan's Dantian was empty, and there was no fighting spirit at all. His whole body was limp, which was obviously a sign of losing strength. Owen smiled bitterly and said: "It's really a world-shattering blow that leaves nothing behind, this kid, ugh"

     Picking up Ah-Dai, Owen continued to transfer the vitality into his body. After a while, Ah-Dai woke up faintly. Just now when he delivered the world-shattering blow, he felt as if his body had been drained. The compressed fighting energy filled with explosive energy took away all his power.

     "Uncle, was my world-shattering strike successful?"

     Owen smiled bitterly and nodded, saying: "You, you are so reckless. If you use this move against the enemy, I'm afraid you won't be able to recover in a week. Two hundred percent is really a terrifying power, Dumb. , how do you compress Shengsheng's fighting spirit without causing it to explode?"

     Duan said: "I don't know. Yesterday, I thought, as you said clearly, the smaller the power, the better. So I tried my best to compress Shengsheng's true energy to the minimum state and release it in the form of fighting energy. Go out, and then I won't know anything else. Can true energy also explode?"

     Owen said: "Of course, when the true energy is too dense, it will burst out with strong energy. In the past, there have been masters who died because of excessive compression of the true energy in the body. Maybe it's the Rebirth Fruit and you in recent years. The spiritual power of meditation can save you. Don't do this again unless you have to, it's too dangerous."

     Duan nodded and said: "Uncle, my body is empty. I feel so uncomfortable. Didn't you say that there is an endless supply of Shengsheng Zhenqi? Why, when I use it up, it's gone."

     Owen said angrily: "Eternal life also needs a source. You have exhausted the power of the source. How can you recover? Let's go back first. I will help you recover your skills."

     Even though Owen used the same source of vital energy to help Ah-Dai practice, it took two days for Ah-Dai to fully return to his previous state. In the past two days, Owen has given Ah-Dai many instructions on how to use luck and how to maximize the effect of Shengsheng's fighting spirit while saving the most energy.

     "Your skill has been restored. Go up to the wooden stake again today. Remember what I taught you. Seven points are distributed and three points are retained. But never use the overwhelming blow again. Too much consumption will be detrimental to your future practice. of."

     Ah-Dai also had lingering fears. It took two full days for the true energy in his body to return to its original state.

     In this way, Ah-Dai began the practice of breaking through waves. Because he found the right method, the impact of the waves no longer posed much of a threat to him. With constant application every day, Ah-Dai made rapid progress. After three months, he could already support I won't be hit by the waves all day long. Fighting against the waves every day also made Ah-Dai's body stronger and stronger. Under the impact of the sea water and the sun's exposure, his fair skin turned into a healthy bronze color, and a sharp cold light occasionally flashed in his dull eyes.

     Owen stood on the reef, watching with satisfaction as Ah-Dai punched the waves back with one punch after another. He nodded with satisfaction and murmured: "The progress is really fast. Although the effectiveness of the Rebirth Fruit is extraordinary, this child I really work hard." The hard work of fighting against the waves is beyond what most people can imagine. Ah-Dai no longer has time to learn other knowledge. He just fights against the waves, meditates, and meditates every day. However, he has never cried out about pain. .

     In the middle of the day, Owen untied Ah-Dai from the wooden stake. After the two had eaten, Ah-Dai was about to return to the wooden stake, but was stopped by Owen, "We are about to start the next lesson. Your vindictiveness is over." You used it well." Owen grabbed Dumb's slender hands and said, "Your hand shape is better than uncle's. Did you know that most of uncle's kung fu is on the sword? From today on, you have to experience the characteristics of the sword. This I have nothing to teach you. You have to experience everything by yourself. Only by becoming a true friend with the sword can you exert its power as the king of weapons." He took out the huge sword from behind the reef. The broad sword was covered with rust due to not being used for several years.

     "Old man, I'm neglecting you." Owen looked at the broad sword in his hand with misty eyes. This sword had been with him for thirty years. He held the sword in one hand, and the other hand flashed with white vitality. He used the white light to Wiping it towards the sword body, the rust on the sword body disappeared immediately, revealing the shining blade.

     "Ah-Dai, this broad sword has been with me for thirty years. From today on, it will be your partner. The sword is five feet six inches long, the handle is one foot two inches, and the blade is four feet four inches long. The width is half a foot, the thickest point is three inches, and it weighs seventy-six kilograms. The sword is named Tiangang."

     Dumb was stunned, "Uncle seventy-six kilograms, are you right?" Even the hammer of the blacksmith in the town only weighed twenty kilograms.

     Owen held the sword flat, and with just the trembling of his fingers, a sword shadow appeared on the sword. The seventy-six kilogram heavy sword was as light and weightless as a feather in his hand. Owen placed the sword in front of him, stroked the blade, and sighed: "Is it heavy? Maybe you will feel so at first, but when your heart becomes one with it, you will no longer feel it. weight."

     Duan looked at the Tiangang Sword, which was taller than him, and couldn't help but feel excited. He took a few steps forward and said to Owen: "Uncle, can you try it for me?"

     Owen twisted his fingers, pointed the sword down, and handed over the hilt. Dui stretched out his hand to grab the hilt of the sword. As soon as Owen let go, Dui felt his hand sink. Although he was prepared in advance, he still couldn't hold it firmly. There was a clang, and the tip of the sword suddenly hit the ground. Owen smiled and scolded: "You stupid boy, it's useless to be angry. Use your energy to control the sword."

     Dui stuck out his tongue, took a deep breath, and activated the Shengsheng Qi in his body. His whole body emitted a white light. He used his hands hard and immediately raised the Tiangang Sword. Under the influence of Shengsheng Qi, the sword felt lighter. Quite a few, but it was extremely difficult to swing. If he hadn't practiced the application of fighting energy for many days, he might not even be able to swing the sword. Owen said in a deep voice: "The Qi sinks in the Dantian, the feet should be steady, and the Shengsheng Qi should be transferred to the waist. Carry it with a belt, carry it with your shoulder, use your shoulder to carry your arm, use your arm to carry your elbow, use your elbow to carry your wrist, and use your wrist to carry your hand. Use your hands to guide your fingers. This is the basis for using the sword. There are thirty-six moves in the Tiangang Sword Technique, but the moves are too complicated and it may be difficult for you to remember them. I simplified them into nine moves. Look, the first move is Changhong Guan. day."

     Dumb's eyes flashed, and with a flick of his hand, the Tiangang Sword was already in Owen's hand. Owen's body flashed in the air, and he rushed out with his body and sword in one. The Tiangang Sword was filled with white light, full of indomitable momentum, and fell to the ground. Owen said: "See clearly? It seems to be a very simple move, but it requires your hands, eyes, and mental skills to be coordinated in place. In this way Well, you don't need to practice swordsmanship yet. Today, you will practice the three most basic postures of chopping, picking, and stabbing." As he said that, he explained the essentials of the three postures, and then handed the Tiangang Sword to Ah-Dai, drifting away. go.

     "I chop, I chop." When the sun set, Ah-Dai's whole body was sore from practicing. Although it was just three simple postures, he couldn't feel it.

     "How's your practice going?" Owen's figure suddenly appeared on the rocks. He was carrying a branch in his hand.

     Ah-Dai scratched his head and said, "I can't say for sure, but it feels different from what you demonstrated."

     Owen glanced at the sword marks on the rocks, shook his head, and said: "You need to have the momentum to slash. Although the power can only be used for seven points at most, and you have to leave three points to change the move, but you must overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum. Okay, you watch." He held the branch with both hands and raised it high. The sea wind around him seemed to have stopped and no longer blew on Ah-Dai. The unusually strong pressure forced him to take a few steps back and looked at it in surprise. The branch in Owen's hand.

     The pressure suddenly disappeared, making Ah-Dai feel like he was leaning forward. Owen said: "See clearly, now you use your sword to chop me. As long as you can make my feet leave the place, you will be considered successful."

     Duan nodded, imitating Owen's example, raised the Tiangang Sword high with both hands, and said, "Uncle, be careful." The fighting spirit poured into the blade, and he chopped it down on the head. Although it did not have the momentum of Owen, the Tiangang Sword reached It also emits a faint light.

     A smile appeared on Owen's face. Just when the Tiangang Sword was about to hit the top door, the tree branch gently lifted the sword and immediately drew the sword aside. Ah-Dai felt that the sword in his hand suddenly sank, and with a bang, it immediately hit the ground beside him, with half of the blade missing from it.

     Owen said: "The fighting spirit must be accumulated but not released or burst out suddenly. If you didn't completely release the fighting spirit just now, I won't be able to release it easily. Come again." In this way, the old and the young kept on the rocks. As he started practicing, Shengsheng Zhenqi continued to support Ah-Dai in wielding the heavy sword. Until late at night, he was finally able to force Owen to fight with him. Although he did not force Owen back, Owen was very satisfied. In order to let Ah-Dai better master the essentials of the sword and understand the key points of the sword's intention, starting from the next day, Ah-Dai was still tied to the wooden stake. The difference was that he switched to using the Tiangang Sword to chop the waves. Time flies so fast, Dumb and Owen have been in Shitang Town for six years.

     On the reef, the light kept flashing. It was Ah-Dai practicing the Tiangang Sword Technique again. The Thirty-Six Tiangang Sword Techniques are one of the most popular sword techniques on the mainland. Although the power is not very powerful, it has a wide range of abilities. The combined momentum is most suitable for use on the battlefield. Although Owen simplified this sword technique, his momentum has not weakened. After a long period of practice, Ah-Dai is now able to skillfully activate the fighting spirit to control the Tiangang Sword. Thanks to the good foundation of fighting spirit he had laid in the past few years, Ah-Dai learned other things much faster. Over the past three years, Owen has taught everything he has learned. Although Dumb has a slow mind, his hard work makes up for it. His fighting spirit has almost entered the fifth level, and he has both body and sword skills. He has made great progress, and when Owen uses branches, he can support dozens of moves without defeat.

     Owen stood aside and looked at Ah-Dai dancing with the sword, showing a satisfied smile. After a while, when Ah-Dai's Sheng Sheng Jue broke through to the fifth level, he would be able to teach him his secret skills. The eighteen-year-old Dumb is already about the same height as Owen, with broad shoulders and a broad back. Apart from still looking childish, he already looks like an adult no matter how he looks.

     "Okay, Dumb, come back." Owen shouted loudly.

     Duan raised his spirits and made light of his body. He held the Tiangang Sword upside down and landed next to Owen, "Uncle, are you going to learn something new again?"

     Owen smiled and shook his head, saying: "You have learned almost all the basic things in the past few years, and uncle is very satisfied. After a while, when your Sheng Sheng Jue reaches the fifth level, uncle will teach you the Pluto Sword, which is famous in the mainland. Fa. That's what uncle is really capable of. Let's go. Your uncle Xier came to me early this morning and said that he and I would be invited to eat crabs at noon. You guys are in for a treat."

     When it comes to eating, Ah-Dai is still like he was when he was a child, his eyes are shining, and he smiles naively: "Okay, Ah-Dai likes to eat crabs the most."

     The two of them talked and laughed and returned to Shitang Town, leaving the Tiangang Sword among the rocks. Although the Schill family had been closely associated with Irving in the past few years, they still didn't know that Irving and Dumb both had kung fu. Owen only told them that when Ah-Dai grew up, he went out to work in the shipyard every day.
