Chapter 174 Li Jie's Training: Enhancing Control with 'Sword Qi Tide'
What have you been doing all day?
"If it weren't for the occasional tremors coming from the back mountain, I would have thought you had run away with the Sword Saint..."
After Li Jie sat down, Lin Qiye leaned over and whispered something.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Ping's hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly.
Li Jie glared at him irritably. Luckily, he hadn't gone back to the dormitory. If Zhou Ping had been left here alone, those brats might have managed to seduce him again.
"Practice your sword, stop asking questions, just eat your meal."
"We'll practice for three more days, and then move on to the next stage of training."
...............
For the past three days, Lin Qiye and the others have been practicing in pairs, following Zhou Ping's method.
You know what, his arrangements were quite ingenious.
All members of the reserve team of this fifth special squad have made progress to varying degrees.
Zhou Ping himself is also close to fully comprehending the [Two Green Snakes in Two Sleeves] technique.
When he heard the cyan sword light being swung out again, it was accompanied by a faint dragon's roar.
Zhou Ping also looked slightly bitter.
How exactly should this 'Sword of Heart Severance' be used?
Although he has now basically learned how to use this powerful sword technique, he has not yet fully understood its true meaning.
Li Jie didn't have a good solution to this either.
He grasped the true meaning of the sword because he had a sudden enlightenment under the pressure of fighting the Sword Saint.
But looking across the Great Xia, the only ones who could put pressure on the Sword Saint were probably the Great Xia gods who were busy repairing the Heavenly Court.
Therefore, Li Jie could only comfort Zhou Ping by saying that the time was not yet right.
..........
When the fourth day arrived, Lin Qiye and the others had already finished packing and were waiting for the next stage of training to begin.
Zhou Ping looked at the six little ones standing straight at the warehouse door, coughed awkwardly, and spoke.
"Now that you've almost gotten along, the next step is to cultivate your mental strength."
“Originally, I didn’t want to conduct this training, but Ye Fan specifically arranged for all of you to break through to the ‘Sea’ Realm in a short period of time, so I have no choice but to rely on some external forces….”
Then, he picked up two small stools, sat down not far from them, and greeted Li Jie.
"Li Jie, come here."
Only after Li Jie sat down next to him did he continue speaking.
"Actually, you've all seen this training method before; it's the one Li Jie used on his first day here."
"I call it 'Sword Qi Tide,' although the exact wording is slightly different, but that's roughly the meaning."
"For the next period of time, Li Jie will release 'Sword Qi Tide' to bombard your bodies, while I will release sword qi to temper your spirit. During this process, what you need to do is to stay conscious for as long as possible and keep your body steady."
"The longer you endure the training, the better the results will be."
Upon hearing this, apart from Jialan, the eyes of the other five children twitched violently. Under their horrified gazes, Zhou Ping recalled the sword box that was standing to the side and placed it in his hand.
On the other hand, Li Jie opened the sandalwood gourd tied to his waist with a half-smile, and two ancient longswords, one white and one blue, emitting a deep, eerie light, came out as summoned.
Maintaining a surge of sword energy over a long period of time, simply releasing it by waving one's hand, would be somewhat tiring, so...
Li Jie used a clever trick, making the two immortal swords release sword energy in a regular pattern, and then he attacked them by surprise!
Hey?
wrong......
He himself increased the difficulty of the training!
This is absolutely not about settling a personal score!
Absolutely not!
"Are you ready?"
He grinned wickedly at the five little ones whose faces were filled with terror, and gently beckoned with his finger. The two immortal swords, Zhuxian and Juexian, instantly burst forth with a loud sword chant.
"Ready...? Are you ready?"
Lin Qiye spoke hesitantly, displaying a spirit of determination that said, "A hero goes forth and never returns."
Just after they settled into their horse stance, Zhou Ping spoke to Li Jie.
“I don’t object to you using those two swords, but you must control your strength when you use them. This is not only training for them, but also training for you to control your power.”
Li Jie nodded, indicating that he understood the Sword Saint's meaning.
In fact, he had long suspected that the Sword Saint had asked him to unleash the Sword Qi Tide in order to improve his control over sword techniques.
However, it is indeed very difficult to implement.
One is to ensure the effectiveness of their training, and the other is to control the force so as not to injure them.
"Ready? If you're ready, let's begin."
After saying that, Li Jie unleashed a sword aura without warning, and then...
The two immortal swords moved according to the thought, releasing waves of sword energy in a regular pattern.
In an instant, Lin Qiye and the others were lifted into the air like a few pieces of broken wood in a storm.
Before they could even hit the ground, another wave of sword energy attacked them.
Zhou Ping shook his head slightly as he watched this scene.
"No, Li Jie, you should do it like this..."
Just as the Sword Saint was explaining the method of force control to Li Jie, the tide of sword energy from the two immortal swords did not stop, which means...
Lin Qiye and the others were in a state of constant dizziness.
Seeing that the time was right, Zhou Ping explained while gently tapping the black sword box with his right hand. Countless tiny silver-white sword energies instantly filled the entire training ground.
At this, Lin Qiye and the others couldn't help but let out a muffled groan.
Just now, in addition to dizziness, they experienced a splitting pain in their minds.
It was as if countless tiny knives were tearing their spirits apart.
Now...
They not only have to control their physical bodies, but also resist the erosion of their spiritual world.
Not long after, apart from Jialan, the other five little ones all fainted, like dead pigs, helplessly blown away by Li Jie's sword energy and then falling down.
"Okay."
Seeing that most people had lost consciousness, Zhou Ping told Li Jie to stop releasing his sword energy.
Upon hearing this, Li Jie flicked his two fingers, and the two immortal swords, Zhuxian and Juexian, obediently floated behind him.
Zhou Ping was very responsible when it came to teaching. Even though they had fainted, he still went up to check on their mental state.
"Hmm...it seems the teaching went quite well this time, but..."
"You've surprised me quite a bit..." He turned to look at Jialan, whose face was pale but who was still conscious, and said.
