Chapter 377: Chapter 376, New Realization_1
Li Xiaoyao smiled and said, "That’s a pretty good skill, but wouldn’t it save a lot of trouble to turn several hundred Sword Auras into a single attack?"
Jiang Chen wished he could!
But these were Skills, not True Qi, and he couldn’t fuse the energy together.
It was like condensing three hundred Sword Auras into one, creating powerful Attack Power.
The quantity decreased, but the quality of the Sword Qi improved.
Jiang Chen shook his head. "It won’t work."
"Have you tried it?"
"I have, and they can’t fuse."
"Then try again. The Skills are the power emitted by the Badge, but they also belong to you, just like our True Qi. Increase the coalescence of the Sword Qi, improve the quality of the Sword Qi. You have to try to change, try to fuse; only then can you become stronger."
Jiang Chen asked, "Are you talking about the Modern Sword Clan?"
"It seems you’ve heard of it."
"I heard about it from the Wanderer."
"Yes, this is a swordsmanship created by Wanderers, inspired by you Heroes. Often, cultivating a martial art requires only a basic understanding. Then, by continuously using it, continuously improving it, enhancing the coalescence of the Sword Qi, and condensing the original three-meter-wide Sword Qi into half a meter wide, its Attack Power is increased. This is indeed very effective."
"It works for Wanderers but not for Heroes because a Hero’s Skills are fixed, unchanging through the ages."
Li Xiaoyao laughed.
"Who said that?"
Jiang Chen retorted, "Isn’t it so?"
"Of course not. Your Skills are just like our martial arts; they belong to you too. It all depends on how you change them."
"You think that because fusing failed once, it will never work? Increasing the coalescence of Sword Qi takes an unknown number of failures before success."
Well... that seemed logical. Why not give it a try?
Jiang Chen focused his mind, attempting to fuse two Sword Auras.
CLANG! CLANG!
During fusion, the Sword Auras started to cancel each other out, like a left hand struggling against a right hand. They outright refused to merge, as incompatible as water and fire.
They simply couldn’t blend.
Jiang Chen shook his head. "It’s impossible."
Li Xiaoyao laughed. "Of course it won’t work like that. The Sword Qi has already taken shape; how can it fuse? It’s like two stones; no matter how you try to merge them, they remain two stones."
"You need to fuse before the Sword Qi takes shape."
"Fuse before it takes shape?" Jiang Chen asked, puzzled.
Li Xiaoyao nodded. "Yes, fuse before it takes shape. It’s like how Wanderers do it. When unleashing Sword Qi, they control their True Qi and martial arts to highly condense the Sword Qi *before* it fully forms, not while the Sword Qi is being unleashed."
"Wanderers transform True Qi into Sword Qi energy, condensing it highly to increase its Attack Power."
"You Heroes use magic, and you can highly condense Magic Power when using it. Ultimately, your so-called Skills are fundamentally the same as Wanderers’ martial arts."
"It’s all about transformation."
Using the Wan Jian Gui Clan’s Skill consumes Magic Power. Similarly, when a Wanderer unleashes Sword Qi, they stimulate True Qi. It’s the same principle.
When Jiang Chen uses Wan Jian Gui Clan, 30,000 points of Magic Power are emitted from the Badge and his body, instantly transforming into 30,000 Sword Auras.
If it’s a transformation before formation, then it means merging two streams of Magic Power into one when using magic. This, in turn, would condense two Sword Auras into one.
Jiang Chen fell into deep thought.
If this were really possible, it might actually work.
But the crucial point is that the Wan Jian Gui Clan’s Skill is an instant-cast skill; it completes in a flash. How could he merge two streams of Magic Power into one in that instant?
Li Xiaoyao nodded and said, "It seems you’ve understood."
"Thanks for the reminder. However, our Skills activate instantly, making it very difficult to merge two streams of Magic Power into one," Jiang Chen said.
Li Xiaoyao scoffed, "Obviously! If it were that simple, then everyone on the Hero’s Continent would be an expert. I’m just telling you the method; it’s up to you to master how to control it."
"The Badge is part of your own strength. If you can’t even control your own power, then I have nothing more to say. What you *should* be doing is learning to control your Skills at will."
Delia added, "You need to practice a lot. It took me three years to thoroughly control the power of the Badge, to be able to control it at will."
It seemed Delia had learned quite a bit from Li Xiaoyao.
If Wanderers could do it, then Heroes should be able to as well, given enough practice.
If it truly was possible, then what would it mean to condense 30,000 Sword Auras into just one hundred? He would be invincible!
Jiang Chen once again activated the Wan Jian Gui Clan’s Skill.
Thirty thousand points of Magic Power were emitted from the Badge and his body, completing the transformation in an instant. Just as Jiang Chen attempted to fuse them, they had already transformed into Sword Auras.
If it didn’t work once, he’d try again.
Jiang Chen’s [Heart Realm] Skill was extremely powerful. It allowed him to sense the Magic Power being drawn from his body and transforming into Sword Qi, all within one second.
He had to control the Magic Power at the precise moment of its release, merging two streams into one.
Precise control was key.
He tried again... but failed.
Again, he tried... and again, he failed.
He tried once more...
After intense focus and repeated attempts, Jiang Chen finally achieved a breakthrough. He managed to reduce the 30,000 Sword Auras to 15,000. Although the quantity halved, the Attack Power of each Sword Aura increased by half.
A purer form of Sword Qi energy manifested before Jiang Chen.
Delia asked in confusion, "Why are there fewer Sword Auras?"
Li Xiaoyao said, "He succeeded."
Delia’s jaw dropped in shock.
"Succeeded?"
How is that possible? It took me three years to gain such control, and he managed it in an instant? This guy is truly a monster!
Jiang Chen smiled to himself. Turns out, it wasn’t that difficult after all!
He tried to fuse again. This time, he focused on turning three Sword Auras into one.
Jiang Chen repeatedly cast the Wan Jian Gui Clan’s Skill, practicing continuously.
In less than twenty minutes, Jiang Chen could already merge five Sword Auras into one, increasing the Attack Power of each fivefold.
Just then, a group of Giants clad in Armor approached.
At Jiang Chen’s mental command, his Sword Auras struck out swiftly, shooting towards the Giants’ Armor like long serpents. Although they didn’t break through the defense, Jiang Chen saw a glimmer of hope.
Each Sword Aura left a five-centimeter-deep hole in the armor.
Based on this, he calculated it would only take eight such Sword Auras to penetrate the 40-centimeter-thick Armor.
If so, killing members of the Giant Tribe wouldn’t be a problem!
Jiang Chen distributed his 6,000 Sword Auras evenly, arranging them into 300 snaking lines, each composed of 20 Sword Auras. These danced in the air, aimed to kill the approaching members of the Giant Tribe.
As the Giants drew closer to the trio, their armor was pierced by the Sword Auras one after another.
Screams erupted...
Delia watched the falling Giants in astonishment. She was amazed to see that the Sword Auras had actually penetrated their armor.
She exclaimed in disbelief, "You killed an armored Giant? This Sword Qi is incredible!"
Li Xiaoyao praised, "A clever idea! Using formations of 20 Auras allows 600 Sword Auras to strike with such speed. I’ve seen many Heroes, and you are undoubtedly the strongest."
"The Giant Leader is here. This time, I’ll see if I can take him down." Jiang Chen was eager to try.
