Chapter 29 The ultimate in kendo is self-expression
Different from the subtle changes in attributes, after the psychological barrier was overcome, Zhao Cheng's temperament, or the aura when he wielded the sword, suddenly changed drastically.
The difference is similar to starting from being cautious and cautious, and gradually letting go.
This is not a question of mental stability, but a question of personal swordsmanship style.
The same swordsmanship, in the hands of different people, has completely different styles.
The mind-stabilizing effect brought by breathing meditation can only make people make no mistakes and display their combat effectiveness in a satisfactory manner. However, the swordsmanship style produced by the strong will can make people perform beyond their limits, even in desperate situations.
Among them, live towards death and seek life in death.
When the sword has "emotion", the sword becomes more effective in practice.
Zhao Cheng actually doesn't know much about this kind of thing, but this is what he is doing now.
When his hands and feet were let go, when the shackles in his heart were shattered, when he began to get used to fighting, and his body instinctively trembled when encountering a crisis, a strange pleasure emerged deep in Zhao Cheng's heart.
Fear, fear, weakness, these are what he is, but he is more than these. There are still some things in his heart that were blinded and covered by the world in the past. Only at this moment did he finally wake up.
He was born with the desire to be powerful, or to become stronger!
Anything that can make him stronger is his pursuit.
This is how he practiced swordsmanship assiduously before, but swordsmanship is not the only thing that can make him stronger.
In addition to swordsmanship, there is also fighting!
Swordsmanship can hone the body and mind, but fighting can hone the mind and will.
Fight! Fight! Win!
A powerful life level, with the support of the soul and will, is not an empty shell, and only in this way can it be truly "alive".
When a person gives up on himself, he is already dead.
"The ultimate in kendo is self-expression."
"I have forgotten who said this, but I seem to see a little bit of myself!"
A voice sounded in Zhao Cheng's clear and pure heart, but it did not break the clarity within it. It was just that there was a trace of blood on the long sword that had not existed before.
It's just like the passion in my heart, and it's like the boundless will to fight.
This is Zhao Cheng's own voice.
And through swordsmanship, he did see a little bit of his true self.
He is not the person who followed the crowd after graduation in his previous life, running around all day for daily necessities, doing nothing, and not knowing what he wanted.
Not even in this life, after his memory awakened, he began to work hard, learn swordsmanship hard, and kept saying that he wanted to become stronger, but he didn't know why he wanted to become stronger.
The real him is born with the desire to be strong. He doesn't need a reason, there is no why, because he is who he is!
When the sound sounded, Zhao Cheng had already taken six steps back, looking a little embarrassed, while the gray man took six steps in a row, showing his murderous intent.
Under the influence of breathing meditation, Zhao Cheng remained calm, but in his calmness, there was an additional emotion that did not affect his calmness, the will to fight.
His heart is eager to fight and surpass himself!
Sonorous!
Zhao Cheng swung his sword, but the speed of the sword did not become faster due to the change in his mind, nor did the force on the sword become stronger.
However, anyone who looks at this sword path can clearly feel that it is different from the previous one.

(Note: It’s not about accumulation or good luck, but about the qualitative changes caused by the accumulation of talent in swordsmanship. How can it be so easy for ordinary people to realize everything. What? Even swordsmanship wizards can’t do it? I will tell you that I am more of a wizard than a wizard?
!)
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Three more sword strikes, Zhao Cheng gradually mastered the rhythm and did not continue to retreat.
When the emotions in your heart are expressed through swordsmanship, what appears is that the sword has spirituality.
How big is the difference between people who have a will to fight and people who don’t have a will to fight?!
Zhao Cheng no longer tried to defend in an airtight manner, nor did he carefully protect himself from harm. Instead, he boldly attacked the front and replaced defense with offense.
And that’s what swordsmanship is all about!
The thing born for defense is the shield.
Things like swords were born for offense and killing!
The fist hit Zhao Cheng's head, and the wind of the fist hit his face, making a rattling sound.
And Zhao Cheng's sword also slashed at the gray man's neck.
Zhao Cheng would not have been so determined before, but after overcoming the psychological barrier, he was determined.
Is it faster with the sword? Or is it faster with the punch?
Immediately, the answer was there.
The gray man changed his move and used his arm to block the edge of the sword, cutting a deep gash.
But the traces were not flesh and blood, nor muscles and bones, but a gray fluid. Bits and pieces of fluid escaped from the cracks, turning into gray light spots and disappearing into the air.
From the fact that the Gray Man knew how to change his moves, Zhao Cheng also judged that the Gray Man's fighting instinct was not that of a killing weapon that used any means to achieve the goal, but was similar to that of a living martial arts master.
While attacking, you will also protect yourself!
This is undoubtedly a good thing, otherwise, the difficulty would be too high.
At the same time, except for the hands, other parts that are dealt with are not as hard as steel.
In addition, dealing with the special body structure made Zhao Cheng wonder whether beheading was needed to kill the opponent.
Or, there is a core in the opponent's body, and that core needs to be destroyed in order to kill the opponent.
Keng!
Another sword strike, Zhao Cheng keenly noticed that the opponent's strength seemed to be a little smaller.
"Um?!"
"Can I scrape the blood?!"
…
Three minutes later, Zhao Cheng sat down on the ground.
At this moment, his left shoulder had collapsed and his arm was broken into pieces.
In front of him, a tall gray body fell to the ground. There were sword marks crisscrossing the body and arms. If you count them carefully, there are more than a dozen.
However, his fatal injury was to his neck, and his head was cut off directly.
In order to cut off his neck, Zhao Cheng slashed four times with his sword. His left shoulder was lying on the bed at that time. Accidents in battle were inevitable.
In fact, if the opponent hadn't been scraped with a lot of blood by him, he would have lost most of his fighting power with just one punch. After all, internal bleeding is no joke.
It's just that the situation at that time did not allow him to continue scraping. High-intensity fighting was very mentally and physically demanding. If the time went on, he would not be able to maintain his breathing and thinking. By then, all aspects of his quality would have suddenly deteriorated. Minus, at that time, the roles were reversed.
The Gray Man is afraid that he will know what cruelty is.
After losing his head, the gray man suddenly stopped moving.
The largest body was the first thing to disperse, and the head was the last thing to disperse.
Through this process, Zhao Cheng also confirmed his previous thoughts. The miscellaneous soldiers in front of him indeed had a core, which was inside the head.
The last thing that dispersed was a gray and red ball of light inside his head.
