Douluo Continent: Angel Rebirth
Chapter 7: Kenshin Tournament
There are many types of martial souls, among which there are two main categories: beast martial souls and weapon martial souls. In addition, there are elemental martial souls, etc. However, due to their scarcity, the mainstream ones are beast martial souls and weapon martial souls. respect.
The weapon souls were produced much later than the beast souls. The original martial souls were based on spirit beasts, while the weapon souls only slowly appeared in the Neolithic Age.
Because it appeared late, the ritual for the awakening of the explorer spirit was not very complete. The ratio of souls with beast souls and weapon souls is 8:2, and among the powerful soul masters, the proportion of weapon soul masters is even smaller.
With the continuous improvement of productivity, people have begun to master the technology of iron smelting and alloys. More and more soul masters are awakening the weapon souls, and the weapon souls are becoming more and more powerful.
By chance, the blacksmith's spirit was forged over a long period of time and fused with fine iron, improving the quality of the spirit. As the situation increased, Wuhun Temple became aware of this situation. They gathered the blacksmiths and conducted a large number of experiments. Finally, they determined that the quality of the Wuhun could be improved through forging, or by incorporating metals containing elemental properties. The weapon soul has attributes that it did not have before, which greatly enhances the weapon soul.
After tens of thousands of years of development, humans have mastered skilled forging, iron smelting, and alloy technologies, which has also enhanced the status of weapon souls among martial souls. But what is irrefutable is that among the three upper sects, Haotian Sect and Qibao Glazed Sect are both weapon souls, and weapon souls have truly had their own place.
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and where there are rivers and lakes, there are fights.
The initial fight was not intentional.
In the hands of the blacksmith, the weapon soul continues to evolve and develop. The blacksmiths who successfully evolved the weapon soul began to classify the attributes and characteristics of the weapon soul to achieve better forging effects.
But these categories are exploited by people who want to rank them to earn gimmicks and make money from them.
Of course, the ranked weapon soul is not willing to lag behind in the ranking of his own martial soul in order to defend his own martial soul. They conducted a cruel weapon soul competition to determine the ranking of the weapon souls based on their strength.
In the long-term competition, the contestants in the Weapon Soul Competition, in order to rank higher in their Weapon Soul Competition, killed some soul masters with high-quality Weapon Souls but poor strength who had not yet grown up. This also led to It reflects the decline of weapon spirit in that period.
In order to prevent the continued decline of the weapon soul, several of the most powerful weapon soul masters at the time united. They held a public competition, discarding the previous cruel competition rules and turning it into a competitive competition to promote the development of the weapon soul. Instead of determining the level of martial arts based on ranking.
From this, the new weapon spirit conference was formed.
After many weapon soul competitions, several powerful weapon souls have been unanimously recognized by everyone. On this basis, people formed a ranking of weapon souls, but this ranking was no longer the complacency of everyone at that time, but the unanimous choice of many soul masters, and was recognized by the Wuhun Palace, so it has been passed down to this day. The weapon soul competition has also become a discussion among the juniors, and the weapon soul has finally stabilized.
There are also many categories in weapon souls, such as knives, halberds, spears and other weapons, and swords are a common type of weapon soul.
After a long period of training, the weapon soul masters discovered that the training methods of the same martial soul were similar. In order to increase the speed of cultivation, soul masters of the same martial soul gathered together to exchange training experiences.
The Sword Heart Conference is a conference for sword soul masters to communicate.
--------------------------------
At the foot of Sword Mountain, Wenjian Pavilion
Sword Mountain is the sacred mountain in the hearts of Sword Soul Masters, and the Sword Soul Conference has always been held here.
The initial exchanges were conducted among a small number of soul masters who had close relationships, and most of them were done behind closed doors. As the number of sword soul masters increases, private communication can no longer meet normal needs. Therefore, after intensive discussions among the sword soul masters, the Sword Heart Conference, led by Wu Feng Douluo, Qingfeng Douluo, and Sword Douluo, the most famous "Three Musketeers" in the Dangshi Continent, and attended by many sword soul masters, was held for the first time on Jian Mountain. Convened, the Kenshin Tournament does not distinguish between sects, friends or foes, and is taught at a glance.
Sword Mountain, located in the west of the Tiandou Empire, is different from the endless stretches of other mountain ranges. It stands alone on the wall and the sword cuts through the sky.
There are 9 levels of stairs in Jianshan, and the pressure on each level is different. According to the climbers, the stairs on the Sword Mountain have a strong magnetic field. The higher you go up, the greater the pressure, which also reflects the power of the sword spirit of the climber. Among the three great swordsmen today, Sword Douluo reached the 7th floor when climbing the mountain, while Qingfeng Douluo and Wufeng Douluo only reached the 6th floor. The highest record on Jianshan Mountain is 8 floors, but it has not been reached for thousands of years.
The originally silent Jianshan Mountain became noisy due to the early convening of the Sword Heart Conference. The most different thing between sword soul masters and other soul masters is that sword soul masters like to externalize their martial souls and hold them in their hands or at all times. It's behind the back. It is said that such close contact can improve their fit with the sword.
"Hey, do you know why the Kenshin Tournament will be held early?" A young man wearing linen rubbed his hands and asked the boy sitting next to him.
The young man has a face like a crown jade, his shoulder-length golden hair sparkles in the sunlight, and he is dressed in a white robe, spotless.
The young man raised his eyebrows and said, "I don't know, do you know?"
The Azabu youth didn't seem to expect that the young man would reply to him. He was taken aback, then smiled, approached and said, "Actually, I don't know either!"
The corner of the young man's mouth twitched: "Then you ask me?!"
The young man smiled and said, "I don't know, don't I? Seeing my extraordinary posture, I guessed that he must be a noble person somewhere, so I came to ask."
The young man closed his eyes and ignored him. The young man smiled and said, "By the way, I'll tell you a secret! It's related to this conference."
The young man opened his eyes, looked at him, and said, "Tell me."
The sackcloth young man grinned, revealing his white and yellow teeth, and said, "My name is Li Tian. Li Tian's Li, Li Tian's Tian!"
The boy's veins were twitching wildly and he was about to get up. Li Tian quickly pressed down on the young man's shoulders and said anxiously, "Hey, don't worry, I haven't finished speaking yet! I am Sword Douluo's unofficial direct disciple!"
The young man looked at him in surprise, "You really can't tell a person's face! When did you become Sword Douluo's personal disciple?"
"Hehe, not yet, but I will be after this Kenshin Tournament is over." Li Tian said with a smile.
The young man couldn't bear it any longer. He put his hands on the ground and immediately jumped up. He walked to the other side and sat down cross-legged.
"Hehe, what an interesting guy. This conference... is a bit interesting." Li Tian squinted at the young man's leaving figure and murmured.
Just after the sword soul masters arrived, they were constantly asking each other about the reason why the sword heart conference was held in advance. A breeze blew by, and everyone's clothes were fluttering.
The young man's expression changed, and he jumped up from the ground. With the help of the time spent bouncing in the air, his fingers crossed the void, and the leaves in front of him quietly broke.
The people around him were startled and drew their swords and looked at him with alert expressions.
The young man fell down gracefully, glanced around, and then looked at the jingling bells on the sword mountain, thoughtfully.
Seeing that the young man made no further strange movements, everyone relaxed a little, but moved further away from him.
After all, the boy's behavior just now was really weird. I don't know if there are any special circumstances in the early convening of the Kenshin Tournament. It's better not to have contact with strange people.
The situation here did not attract everyone's attention. Everyone was more concerned about the Jianshan climb that would start later.
With the arrival of noon, everyone was already a little impatient, and the irritability was conveyed in everyone's words and actions.
The boy was still sitting cross-legged outside the crowd, but if you looked closely, you could see a white ripple coming from his body, but it was perfectly covered up under the sunlight.
Another hour passed, just as individual sword soul masters began to complain, a solemn voice came from the top of Sword Mountain: "The Sword Heart Tournament begins! Climb the sword ladder!"
The white mist across the sword ladder dissipated, and everyone gasped as they looked at the sword ladder leading to the towering Jianshan Mountain.
The sword ladder is not a ladder, but a sword blade!
The white light of the sword blade flashed through everyone's heart, and the huge span made people feel powerless. The sword energy on the stairs caused waves in the space. The unstable sword spirit master had already taken a few steps back, his face pale.
After a long silence, a sturdy man began to climb the stairs.
I saw him slowly stepping on the sword blade, and a red drop fell on the sword body. He moved forward tremblingly, but soon swayed and fell down the stairs.
Everyone gasped. There were several lines of blood under the man's feet, some of which were deep enough to show bone!
After freezing for a moment, another man stepped onto the Sword Mountain, but soon fell down. They had only walked one level!
The ladder from Sword Mountain is difficult to climb to the sky!
After a moment, Li Tian stood up. With a bright smile on his face, he jumped from the ground and rushed directly to the first step of the stairs. He stood on the sword blade, and the red liquid quickly fell from the soles of his feet. He frowned, letting the blood fall on the sword blade, and continued to walk forward.
Soon he climbed to the third level. At this time, his feet were stained red with blood. When he climbed to the fourth level, he suddenly slipped. When he was about to fall, a handful of blood-red weapons suddenly appeared in his hand. A small sword with three soul rings, two yellow and one purple, arranged on the sword.
His wrist moved slightly, the sword in his hand touched the blade, and he climbed to the fourth floor with the help of elasticity.
There were cheers, but Li Tian complained secretly. He didn't expect that Jianshan was so difficult, and he had only reached the fourth level when he summoned the martial spirit.
He gritted his teeth. When he climbed to the fifth level, he was knocked back by a force of recoil. He could no longer maintain his balance and fell to the ground.
Everyone was silent for a while when they saw Li Tian falling to the ground in disbelief.
Although there is no age limit for the Kenshin Tournament, this is not the first time that the Kenshin Tournament has been held. Many older Kenshin Masters have participated in previous Kenshin Tournaments, and the Kenshin Tournament cannot be repeated. Therefore, these Kenshin Tournaments are mostly attended by juniors, mostly between the ages of 6 and 15.
Li Tian is now the Third Ring Soul Lord, but he is only 14 years old. This is already the best among this group of sword soul masters.
Li Tian has an arrogant personality and has always regarded himself as Sword Douluo's direct disciple. I thought I could reach at least level 6 this time, but I didn’t expect...
Just when everyone was shocked by Li Tian's failure, the young man had easily stepped onto the third level of Sword Mountain.
The young man is Qian Renxue. She came to participate in the Kenshin Tournament this time and she hid her true identity. Because her identity involves some secrets of the Wuhun Palace, and because she is the first person in history to be born with excess soul power, if she rashly reveals her talent to others, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Before climbing the mountain, Qian Renxue had already gathered information from people who had participated in the Kenshin Tournament in the past. After collecting and summarizing the information, she speculated that the Jianshan test mainly tests several points: physical fitness, endurance, perseverance, control, toughness, explosive power, mental strength, recovery ability, balance ability, sword level, and perception and understanding of the sword.
The magical thing about Jianshan is that different people, different martial arts, test order, and emphasis are all different.
Some people test physical fitness first, some test control first, and some people test explosive power and control first.
Jianshan can detect the martial soul attributes and potential of the sword soul master. The stairs on the Sword Mountain are arranged by the masters of the Sword Soul Master according to the characteristics of the Sword Soul Master's martial soul. Therefore, the more advanced the martial soul is, the more difficult it is and the better they can tap the potential of the Sword Soul Master.
But there is no doubt that no matter what your strength is, the test of Sword Mountain is extremely difficult, otherwise there would not be only one person climbing the eighth step in a thousand years.
Li Tian's fourth level just now should have been a test of his explosive power, but it was obvious that his explosive power was not enough, so he fell down the sword mountain. Qian Renxue thought after observing.
She looked at everyone, curled her lips, and climbed up the first step.
Qian Renxue's first level test is to test her physical fitness.
Physical fitness has many aspects, one of which is physical strength. Sword Soul Masters rely on the externalization of sword souls to fight, so Sword Soul Masters have low physical fitness.
Powerful soul skills require strong meridians, and the body can be used as a carrier to release them. Without a good body, how can you have powerful soul skills? How to unleash the true power of the martial spirit?
The sole of the foot is one of the most sensitive and fragile parts of the body. There is a comprehensive and complex structure of acupuncture points under the soles of the feet, and the acupoints on the soles of the feet are connected to the internal organs. The pain on the soles of the feet is often several times greater than in other parts of the foot. A large part of the physical strength of the soles of the feet can be used as a standard for the physical strength of the whole body, so the soles of the feet are now used as a measurement subject of physical fitness.
The sword intent on the sword mountain has a certain armor-breaking effect, so it puts a stronger test on the soul master's physical fitness!
Qian Renxue, however, didn't feel anything about the sword energy at the soul master level. She just felt a slight tingling sensation, not dripping with blood like the previous soul masters.
When Qian Renxue awakened her martial soul, she was struck by the explosion of Rakshasa origin and the illumination of angelic light. This damaged Qian Renxue's meridians, but the powerful energy contained in both of them also followed the martial soul. After awakening, she was absorbed by Qian Renxue, and her body was initially strengthened.
Later, the immersion in the Angel Pool and the injection of a large amount of angel energy not only repaired and strengthened her meridians, but also strengthened her physical body again.
The "Holy Light Art" practiced by Qian Renxue also has special effects for body training. Now Qian Renxue's physical strength has far exceeded that of a soul master of the same level, and her physical fitness is equivalent to that of a high-level soul sect's beast martial soul fighting soul master who has a soul bone.
Jianshan's test is based on the strength of the subject's soul power. However, Qian Renxue's physical strength far exceeds that of a weapon soul master of the same level, so she passed the first level of sword energy refining without any pressure.
The second level tests Qian Renxue's martial spirit control.
The more powerful a martial spirit is, the more complex and powerful its characteristics are, and the more difficult it is to control. This is one of the reasons why peerless martial arts and god-level martial arts are very powerful but their cultivation speed is slow. Being unable to control powerful forces will cause great harm to the body and future practice.
The "Holy Light Art" practiced by Qian Renxue contains a training method to improve the concentration and control of soul power. Therefore, Qian Renxue did not spend a lot of time on this level and easily stepped onto the third level.
The third level is a test of mental strength.
Spiritual power is the external manifestation of the spiritual world of the soul master. However, because it is ethereal and difficult to externalize, there is very little research on spiritual power. Therefore, there are naturally few methods of spiritual power cultivation that have been handed down, making it difficult to practice.
It is irrefutable that the strength of mental power is of great help to the comprehension and combat ability of the soul master.
Qian Renxue's mental power is not very strong, and she has not learned any special training methods. But after she was purified by the angel's light and the angel's pool, her mental power was greatly improved. In addition, she passed the first of the nine angel exams and obtained 5% angel recognition. This caused a qualitative change in her mental power, and a little divinity was integrated into her mental power!
But the third level is not a test of Qian Renxue's mental power, but a test of Qian Renxue's control of her mental power!
