Chapter 2005: The bigger the heart, the bigger the saber technique
Translator: GodBrandy
“2 GB? How come it’s that big?” Song Shuhang took out his phone and tapped on the receive button.
True Monarch Eternal Fire explained, “This is a Sixth Stage saber controlling technique, and it has a relatively large number of forms. In addition, in order to facilitate your practice of the technique, there are some notes of some seniors who practiced the technique that you can refer to. So it’s normal that its size is around 2 GB.”
It seemed that True Monarch Eternal Fire was quite the meticulous senior.
“It’s only 2 GB. It’s not that big,” Senior Turtle said cheerfully. “Some Eighth or Ninth Stage cultivation techniques have tables of contents that are as thick as several full dictionaries stacked on top of each other. You’ll need 2 GB just to contain the table of contents and notes on those techniques!”
Song Shuhang: “…”
If just the table of contents of a cultivation technique were to be 2 GB in size, how is it supposed to be practiced?
Won’t the one practicing it have a meltdown while trying to learn it?
He was definitely not suitable for practicing such a tedious cultivation technique!
While he was still in the middle of receiving the file, Song Shuhang took a look at the file name.
?Saber Controlling Technique—Savage Saber?
Its name sounded quite cool.
Techniques to operate sabers and swords were usually divided into two types, one to manipulate the weapon while the other one to launch long-range attacks.
Song Shuhang had already mastered the ?Tyrannical Saber Flight?, ?Moonlight Saber Control?, and ?Blade Dragging Technique?.
Among them, the ?Moonlight Saber Control? was a saber technique developed by Su Clan’s Seven. When the saber light headed for an enemy, it would transform into moonlight. When the enemy noticed the moonlight, the flying saber would have already cut through their body.
The ?Moonlight Saber Control? was a basic technique for controlling the saber. On the other hand, this ?Savage Saber? was an advanced saber controlling technique.
Senior Eternal Fire explained, “The ?Savage Saber? was a part of the collection of the scholarly faction. It’s very, very old, and its origins can no longer be traced. However, it is undoubtedly a very powerful saber controlling technique.”
The ?Savage Saber? was divided into Savage Moon, Savage Blade, and Savage Man.
Before the saber was unleashed, it would be hidden inside the body. It was both deceptive and brutal, befitting a savage man. Also, Savage Moon matched Song Shuhang’s ?Moonlight Saber Control?.
It could be said that True Monarch Eternal Fire carefully selected the most suitable saber controlling technique for Song Shuhang from the scholarly faction’s collection.
True Monarch Eternal Fire continued, “Furthermore, this saber technique is a dual saber technique. I recall that little friend Shuhang has more than a single saber.”
Song Shuhang nodded. In his Thirty-Three Divine Beasts’ Combined Magical Treasure, there were the Tyrant Cuttlefish’s Twin Blades. In addition, Lady Onion had the Nine Virtues Phoenix Saber, which he could borrow and use at any time. Besides those, there was also his first treasured saber, Broken Tyrant, which has been tempered by tribulation lightning and was of decent quality. Lastly, there was his invisible saber insect.
“It was only after a lot of consideration that I decided to give you this set of saber techniques,” True Monarch Eternal Fire smiled and said. “While this saber technique is only capable of guiding you on how to control two sabers at the beginning, it can allow you to control many more when you practice it to a higher level. Eventually, with your ten fingers, you can control ten sabers. According to the notes of some seniors, this saber controlling technique is related to the number of a cultivator’s fingers. There was someone who practiced it who had twelve fingers and they could control twelve sabers at once. Each of their sabers could perform a specific form of the ?Savage Saber?; it was very impressive.”
Sixteen asked curiously, “Isn’t this a saber controlling technique? Why is it related to fingers?”
For most saber controlling techniques, one only needed to make a hand sign and they would be able to control the saber or sabers with their mind. It was quite odd for a saber controlling technique to be controlled through one’s fingers.
True Monarch Eternal Fire explained, “I’m not too sure about that. There should be some hidden conditions in the saber controlling technique.”
He was not a saber cultivator, so he did not understand the saber technique that well.
“If it has something to do with fingers…” Song Shuhang pondered for a while, and his hair curled up into twenty little hands, which then fluttered behind his head. “Then do the fingers of my hair-hands count as well?”
While he said that, his twenty hands made of hair flexibly waved their fingers around, making various complex gestures.
“I… don’t think so?” True Monarch Eternal Fire was not sure.
If these twenty little hands also counted for the number of fingers, then would Song Shuhang be able to control 110 sabers all by himself?
This was very different from formations like the ?Myriad Sword Art? and the ?Myriad Saber Art?. Each saber made use of an exquisite saber technique, and each saber was equivalent to a Sixth Stage cultivator attacking with their saber.
“Interesting,” Senior White, who had been staring at the fruit on Song Shuhang’s back, said all of a sudden. “Shuhang, let’s study the ?Savage Saber? in a bit. Try learning it as quickly as you can.”
“Eh? Is Fellow Daoist White interested in this technique?” True Monarch Eternal Fire pinched his chin and fell into thought.?If Fellow Daoist White is interested in this technique, then will Song Shuhang succeed?
At that time, will he really be able to control 110 sabers and use the ?Savage Saber? with each of them?
There would simply be no way for the enemy to survive.
The file transfer was going to take quite a while, so Song Shuhang put away his phone and cupped his fists at True Monarch Eternal Fire. “Alright, Senior Eternal Fire, see you next time.”
“Don’t be in a rush.” True Monarch Eternal Fire smiled and said, “In fact, I prepared another magical technique for you. I specially purchased it for you from Fellow Daoist Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.”
“What technique?” Song Shuhang looked puzzled.
True Monarch Eternal Fire took out a USB flash drive and handed it to Song Shuhang, “It’s the ?Flame Substitution Technique?. Although it’s a Fifth Stage magical technique, it’s very useful. Little friend Shuhang, it should be something that you’d like.”
“It’s that technique!” Song Shuhang finally remembered which technique it was.
It was a life-saving technique used by that Red-Haired Spiritual Emperor who could use the ?Blade Dragging Technique?.
This substitution technique was very useful. If one used it well, they could save a lot of resurrection magical treasures!
At that time, in order to save his life, the Red-Haired Spiritual Emperor handed over both the ?Blade Dragging Technique? and the ?Flame Substitution Technique? to Senior Seventh Cultivator of True Virtue.
“This magical technique is very suitable for little friend Shuhang and Fellow Daoist Thrice Reckless,” True Monarch Eternal Fire said. “Practice it well. It’s an auxiliary magical technique that can be used in many cases.”
Song Shuhang took the USB drive and said, “Thank you, Senior Eternal Fire.”
Senior Eternal Fire was very attentive.
He and Senior Yellow Mountain were very similar in some aspects.
Perhaps seniors who liked the “is very tired and wants to retire” title all had a mother-like heart.
True Monarch Eternal Fire said, “Little friend Shuhang, goodbye for now. When you have time in the future, you can come to the scholarly faction, and we’ll be sure to treat you well.”
Fortunately, Senior Eternal Fire did not have a face-reading technique.
“No problem!” Song Shuhang cupped his fists again.
Before he returned to the scholarly faction in the future, he would first make sure to get an insurance ticket from the Almighty Merchant.
Speaking of the Almighty Merchant, before leaving, he had given four insurance tickets to Sixteen.
However, he was more cautious this time, and he made it so that those insurance tickets could only be used by Sixteen.
