Nioh-kun who can do anything

Nioh didn't cut the stone directly with the knife from the beginning.

If you use too much force, the knife may break, and if you cut it rashly, there will be no "assessment" meaning.

First of all, find the weakest part of this stone, and use the explosive power of sword skills and breathing techniques to hit it with one blow!

Nioh thought for a moment and remembered "The World of Ice".

Speaking of which, Atobe's move is very suitable for breaking down the stone in front of him?

But in the end Nioh still did not use "Phantom" to simulate the "World of Ice".

He came to this world to "practice" in order to enhance his own strength. He needs to improve his sword skills and breathing techniques, so using other tricks will waste the opportunity to practice.

Nioh closed his eyes.

The air in the Sagiri Mountains is thinner than that in the plains, so you need to breathe deeply to get enough oxygen.In the beginning, this condition was used to allow the trainees who were training here to grasp the knack of the breathing method faster.

But Nioh did not enter the breathing method immediately, but let his spiritual power spread.

He perceives the information around him, listens to the sound of the wind, smells the stones in front of him, the ground under his feet and the trees around him.

The mental power turned into water mist, and after detecting the surrounding environment, it gradually re-condensed into water droplets, and then gathered into a water flow, covering the big rock in front of King Ren.

Nioh's heart calmed down.

After his mental power completely turned into a water film-like form, covering the big rock in front of him, he took a deep breath and entered the state of breathing.

He did it very skillfully, and directly entered the state of deep breathing.

He smelled many complex breaths, and more smells that he couldn't notice when breathing normally before, and then used his mental power to classify them.

Then he drew his knife.

Breath of Water · One Shape · Water Surface Slash!

This is the trick he uses the most and is the most proficient, and it is also the trick with the smoothest transition between sword skills and tennis skills.

The middle and upper part of the blade vaguely surrounded by the water flow cut directly at the position closest to the "weak point" perceived by the spiritual force, and at that moment the greatest strength erupted.

With a bang, half of the stone in front of him shattered.

But that doesn't count as "cutting" the stone.

The power was still too scattered, and some gravel fell around the cut position. On the whole, there was a small stone pit on the big rock.

Instead, it looks like the spider web cracks that will appear after being smashed into a hole by a tennis ball and the marks brought out by the rotation.

King Ni took a step back, and did not withdraw from the state of breathing, but looked at the pit and thought about the process just now.

It seems that he is too accustomed to playing tennis. Even if the blade hits directly, the sword intent of the entrained water also brings a similar rotating "air flow".

But for sword skills, this actually disperses the power.

The water surface slashing move, what you need to do is to cut the water surface, instead of slapping the water surface to make the water surface ripple.Neither will rolling up waves and eddies.

In the state of breathing method, the body's skills were still at the peak. Nioh smelled the breath around him, and repositioned himself with the knife in his hand.

Without doing too much preparation, I just rushed up again while taking a deep breath.

This time the water surface slash hit the same position, and the initial point of contact happened to be the last point where the blade landed last time.

The strength this time is much more concentrated than the last time, but perhaps it is because of too much habitual effect of playing tennis, the water flow transformed by mental power, and the intention of water that will be produced after sword skills and breathing methods reach the standard, in the end it is still It swirls like a vortex that devours everything.

In the end, it became a deep pit with a smaller diameter under the round pit on the big rock.

King Ren looked at the marks he had caused, feeling a little distressed.

He took a closer look at the big rock, and found that the stone had been cut in half after two knives.

Did he pass the test by slashing two more knives?

After constant adjustments, King Ni used two more water surface slashes.

His strength is indeed becoming more and more concentrated, but there is still a long way to go before it can be completely "cut". In the end, the whole boulder was smashed open by him, or "exploded".

The cut surface of the stone that was divided into two halves was very rough, and the gravel fell to the ground, and the whole big stone was even divided into several small pieces.

Rinaki, who had been watching from the side, was in a complicated mood.

He reappeared in front of King Ni, stepping on the point where the last point of the knife fell.There was still a small round rock at the end, and he stood on it with his toes, standing very firmly.

It was only at this time that King Ni withdrew from the state of breathing.

He looked up at Mr. Lin Taki: "Is this considered to have passed the examination?"

The corners of Mr. Rinaki's mouth twitched behind the mask, but his tone was still flat: "No."

"But I've already cut it open," Nioh said.

Teacher Rinaki: "...The request is to cut it open with a single knife."

Of course, Nioh's progress surprised him a little.

It is nothing to be able to skillfully use sword skills. From the very beginning, he taught his disciples all the sword skills of Breath of Water. So far, no matter whether it is Nioh, Sato, or Giyuu, at least they seem to be able to use them skillfully Every move of the sword skill.

But after entering the breathing method, let the spirit and body unite, let the sword skills have such explosive power...

Lin Taki realized that the assessment he set up could not stop the disciple in front of him for a few days.

Just as Ryotaki thought, after he changed to a bigger boulder, Nio spent another three days to get rid of the first move of his water breath, and use the extra fancy "rotating" sword on the water surface slash Mind, let your blade become sharper, and your strength become more concentrated.Three days later, he faced a new big rock, and after taking a deep breath, he cut the stone open.

When eating around the boiler that night, Rinaki said to Nioh: "Although you have passed the assessment, Fujishiyama's team entry test is conducted every six months, and the latest time is three months later. Considering the cost of the journey, You still have more than two months. For these two months, you still need to stay here to practice."

On the premise that he did not pass the test of the ghost killing team, Mr. Rinaki would not let his disciple go out to kill ghosts with confidence.

He has lost too many disciples.

And even if they pass the assessment, the loss rate of ordinary ghost slayers is still very high. Lin Taki hopes that his disciples can kill more ghosts, so he should learn as many sword skills as possible before becoming a ghostslayer. Use breathing more skillfully.

Lin Taki also arranged follow-up exercises for Nioh.

From the process of King Ren cutting the stone, he knew that his disciple might have more understanding of sword skills.

But in fact, the current ten moves are highly condensed and perfectly combined with the form of water. Generations of people have continuously deduced and revised the moves of the breathing method. Some "changes" made by Nioh are actually related to the original sword intent of the move Not quite the same.

For example, the water surface slashing move, whether it is to create waves or roll up a vortex, is completely different from the original intention of cutting the water surface, so there are loopholes in the combination.

"In the past two months, you still need to further improve your style..." Gather your comprehensions and try to create your own new sword skills.

Before Lin Taki finished speaking, Yiyong, who had been eating with his head down, seemed to finally understand what Mr. Lin Taki was saying, and raised his head in surprise with his eyes wide open: "What?! Brother has passed the examination?!"

"Damn it! Then I have to catch up with the Fuji Attack Mountain assessment three months later!" Sato said seriously.

Teacher Lin Taki paused: "For the two of you, the final assessment will not start until next month."

"But the brother started the assessment three days ago, right? He finished the assessment in three days." Yi Yong said in an expectant tone, "Then we can also catch up with the team assessment!"

Three days... But it took most of the disciples two or three months to complete this part of their homework.

Ryotaki-sensei swallowed his sigh helplessly.

No matter how reluctant he is to send his disciples to Mount Fuji, he will teach his disciples well, and follow the rules set at the beginning, let the disciples strive to become ghost killers after passing the assessment.

This is his duty as the former pillar of the Ghost Slayer Squad.

Probably Nio's progress stimulated Sato and Yoshiyuki, and the two who agreed to complete all the courses and enter the assessment "next month" both speeded up their progress, and completed all of Fujishiyama's teachings after a week The content has entered the stage of assessment.

At this time, Teacher Rinaki threw Nio over to them as a sparring partner.

He directly brought King Ni to the stone-cutting site of Satu and Giyuu, then turned and left.

"What are you doing here?" Sato turned his head and frowned, "Are you training here too?"

Nioh recalled the progress of his sword skills correction these days, and looked at the two little juniors in front of him (he is already close to 1.7 meters tall in modern society, and he is still growing, And the two juniors of the same age don’t seem to grow much taller), touched his little braids, "How about you come and practice with me to find inspiration? I see that the skins of the stones you came to take are not broken."

Sato's eyes changed: "Pair practice?"

He turned around, clenched his saber tightly, sprinted towards King Ren on tiptoe, and said while waving the saber, "Then let the horse come over!"

Niwang raised the corner of his mouth.

His movement of raising the knife didn't look fast, but he held Satu's blade well.

Then he took a step back with one foot, quickly unloaded and then pushed back.

Sabito did a backflip in the air, landed again and rushed up again.

And this time Nioh has already prepared in advance.

He took a deep breath, not intending to keep his hands, but to let the two little fellows feel the love of the seniors——

Breath of Water · One Shape · Water Surface Slash.

It's still the same trick, but the way Renwang uses this trick now is completely different from when he just returned to this world and used this trick to cut stones.

Fast, very fast, so fast that the naked eye can't catch it.

The power is like thunder, but also like a breeze.

Satoshi's pupils dilated slightly.

When he reacted, he had already landed on the ground with his back on his back, and his knife was completely lifted, pierced through a tree next to him, and then fell to the ground and plunged into the soil.

Such speed, and strength...

So strong!
