Martial Forest

Chapter 45: The Veteran Could See Better

Li Xian woke up at dawn.

Usually he would need an alarm to wake him up. He himself was always a late riser. But since coming to this world, he could easily wake up before dawn

And waking up before dawn, he felt his body felt energized

Most people are still asleep in the yard which is not surprising but he could hear movement on the yard. He narrowed his eyes and then got up from his bed.

He grabs the sword beside his bed and went out with swift speed but without no sound, his footsteps are as light as a feather.

The lightness skill that he had mastered to grandmaster level allows him to move like a shadows of one backs

He then arrived instantly and then he heaved a relieved breath. Turns out it is the old senior. He shakes his head and thought to himself

‘It turns out I have become too paranoid’ he then comes out from hiding and cupped his hand, greeting the old senior.

‘Oh, young hero Li. You are an early riser’

‘My teacher taught me to rise early’ The old senior nodded, his eyes praising Li Xian

Li Xian could only accept it

Last night, Li Xian already gave the false impression that he has a teacher and he is tempering himself in this forest.

Hearing that, Li Xian is clear that the old senior felt relieved that he learns from a teacher and have some people to look after him.

Li Xian is confident if he did not make up such teacher, the old senior might incessantly tries to convince him to follow them down the mountain.

Li Xian while appearing to be a kid, is actually already on his twenties and he had his own plans. And even in his world, he is quite mature compared to his other friends and was ready to take the mantle of his father

But when he told the old senior that it is his teacher desire for him to train himself in this forest, the old senior stops pestering him to come down the mountain

It seems in this world, a kid as young as him is not an abnormal act to learn martial arts.

When he inquires further, Li Xian found out that most successors of some martial arts school were trained since they were little

Most of the great schools also choose their successors early and train them with their school martial arts because it is easy to temper one body and increase the potential of someone who is young instead of someone who learns it in their later years.

Li Xian think of it as an idol audition.

Most idols went through trainee days since they were teens and then debut around the age of fifteen or sixteen.

Though idol trains in dancing.

These martial arts successors learn the art killing and fighting, and powerful internal energy enabling them to perform superhuman feats

But the analogy is quite accurate. Train them young and instill them loyalty to the sect. Who is in the world like him who have the system and loyal to no one?

Well, being disloyal is not something that Li Xian wants people to know about him. How could he be disloyal when he is not loyal to anything.

Even though he had adopted the name Li Xian and tries his best to forget his world, of course such thing could not happen in a day.

He had no attachment to this world and he had no attachment to the people of this world. That itself is a problem but it is also an advantage.

The old senior then spoke and broke Li Xian out of his thoughts

‘If I may ask, what is the swordplay that young hero Li uses against One Blade Shi Yuan?’

Li Xian found no reason to lie and it is not some supreme skill after all that he needs to hide. Instead Li Xian felt the sword art is lacking in many ways after clashing with Shi Yuan

So he answered.

‘It is the Seven Transformation Swordplay’

‘Seven Transformation Swordplay. Seven Transformation Swordplay, huh?’ The old senior repeated as he closes his eyes.

Bai Qingniu when he closes his eyes he went back to his memory seeing that fight.

There are of course some advantages of having such a powerful and abnormal memory

Seven Transformation.

That is the name of the move and for some reason Bai Qingniu believes that the Seven Transformation is truly represented by the sword moves and it is an apt name for the sword technique

When he looks back at his memories it is clear that the sword strike that Li Xian had executed had seven transformations.

Even though it is seven moves, in the seven moves there is seven transformations from the mode of attacking fiercely, to attacking heavily, to attacking lightly.

The mode is in the heaviness of the attack.

The technique focused heavily on moving forward, on thriving and breaking moves with the most straightforward way

Seven move.

When each of the move is performed separately one by one, the domineering and the swift straight attack, the very essence of the sword technique could not be displayed.

But when it is linked and connected, when order of the moves changes in the middle, the beginning and the end, seven transformations could actually lead to another transformation, another transformation creates other transformation.

This sword technique looks like it is direct and straightforward but it is clear in Bai Qingniu eyes this sword technique had the ability to be a powerful supreme sword skill

He thought to himself that maybe the teacher of Li Xian did no teach the whole technique.

In his mind, Li Xian teacher taught him seven transformation of the myriad transformation of moves to Li Xian.

Only when he masters it completely, that the teacher would impart the rest of the techniques. This is not something new. Teaching people also had to be gradual and according to one ability and their ability to comprehend.

Martial arts manual is not easy to impart. The fact that such a young kid had already mastered such introductory sword skill to such a level shows that this teacher had pick a good seed.

It is clear that the teacher of this kid is probably a very powerful expert and probably a sword fanatic.

If LI Xian knows what the old senior is thinking right now, he would be more than juts dumbfounded.

How could there is such transformation in his sword arts?

But what Li Xian could not see, Bai Qingniu could see.

 There is a benefit in experience. Li Xian learn martial art skill juts by pouring his skill points to the desire skills.

This is a sure way of getting stronger but there is a lot of things that Li Xian did not know. And what he didn’t know is the thing he still had not learned from the system

As such he did not know that his Seven Transformation Swordplay is a sword art that could still be developed.

Most of the supreme martial arts skill all grew from simple martial arts to contain profundity of accumulation of decades of research, experimenting and only after such accumulation of experience, such a simple sword skill could grow into a supreme sword arts and it is the same for any other martial arts skill

Alas, both of them have different thought in the matter because of different knowledge.

Bai Qingniu believes that the Seven Transformation Swordplay is an ever-changing sword technique that could be elevated further and the seven transformation is just the introductory technique.

Even the name seems to hint at it. Swordplay and not sword art

On the other hand, Li Xian bought the Seven Transformation Swordplay from the system and the set did not say anything about there is more transformation of the sword technique

The old senior then said

‘If you do not mind, would you perform your sword play in front of me?’ Li Xian found no reason to refuse and he too actually wanted to practice the swordplay in the forest

He did not mind, so he draws his sword.
