Chapter 323: Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship Full Level
Or shouting loudly;
Or turning pale in fright;
Or seemingly lost in thought;
Or in utmost admiration;
...
The myriad forms of life, endless and varied.
Lin Pingzhi and Qu Feiyan watched from the side with great pride, for this was their master (Brother Ding)!
"Hoo!"
Ding Ling rose to his feet, and bowed to Huang Zhonggong in gratitude.
Huang Zhonggong awoke from his daze and quickly helped Ding Ling up, saying both with gratification and shame:
"Alas, comparing myself to you, I feel that I’ve lived my life as a dog these past decades. You are truly an extraordinary prodigy, beyond the imagination of ordinary people like us."
He was stunned and bewildered!
His mind was buzzing!
He was utterly unable to remain calm or composed; had he been younger, he might have been struck into isolation by Ding Ling!
Too formidable!
Simply not human!
"Brother, what exactly happened?"
Hei Baizi slightly changed his expression, took two somewhat unnatural steps forward, and said:
"During our wait outside, why did we suddenly hear flute sounds, then suffer sharp pain in our dantian and meridians, as if being cut by knives and swords? Not long after, we heard clanging sounds. What exactly happened during this period?!"
"Let me tell you!"
With a face full of emotion, Huang Zhonggong stroked his beard and explained the sequence of events.
Hei Baizi, Dan Qingsheng, and Tubi Elder listened as if hearing a celestial tale, with faces full of doubt!
Xiaang Wentian felt relieved, but secretly thought:
"Ding Ling, this young brother is indeed born as the Martial God! Both the Pure Yang True Skill and Absorption Technique reached Great Perfection quickly. Unexpectedly, he learned the unimaginable Seven-string Invisible Sword with such speed and momentum. So strong. If Sect Leader Ren can enlist such a strong person, unifying Jianghu and intimidating the world would be a matter of time!"
His heart burned like fire.
The desire to recruit Ding Ling grew stronger.
"Truly worthy of Brother Ding."
Qu Feiyan gazed at Ding Ling with deep admiration, her almond-shaped eyes shimmering, seemingly unwilling to shift her gaze for life.
Lin Pingzhi had long regarded Ding Ling as a deity, and at present, needed no further words.
"Is he truly so extraordinary?"
Dan Qingsheng, Hei Baizi, and Tubi Elder were somewhat incredulous. Hei Baizi even questioned on the spot:
"Brother, you aren’t being deceived by Ding Ling, are you?! How can a person be so formidable!"
Dan Qingsheng and Tubi Elder unconsciously nodded.
This truly shattered their worldview.
Accepting it.
Very difficult!
Huang Zhonggong understood, said no more, and with the intention to fulfill Ding Ling, stroked his beard and smiled:
"If you don’t believe, feel free to teach your supreme skills to Ding Ling and see if it’s true."
Dan Qingsheng, youthful and impetuous, yet highly trusting of Huang Zhonggong, seeing his elder brother so highly praise Ding Ling, immediately offered:
"I have a set of Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship, self-created by integrating a hundred family sword techniques. If you can learn it after one reading, I’ll teach you all my supreme skills."
"It’s a deal."
Huang Zhonggong’s eyes subtly brightened, resolutely said.
"It’s a deal."
Dan Qingsheng nodded.
Huang Zhonggong thus ceded the inner room, letting Dan Qingsheng enter to teach the technique.
Before long.
Dan Qingsheng’s exclamations came from the inner room, while Xiaang Wentian, Hei Baizi, Tubi Elder, and others listened with bated breath, clearly hearing the clanging sounds of sword edges.
Needless to say.
It must be that Dan Qingsheng’s Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship had been learned by Ding Ling.
They couldn’t help but look at each other, momentarily unsure of what to say.
...
Inner room.
Ding Ling had indeed learned the Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship.
[Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship Full Level]
[Strength +0.1]
[Agility +0.1]
[Constitution +0.1]
Clearly high tier sword technique.
No inferior to the Seven Extremes Swordsmanship.
And Ding Ling suspected Dan Qingsheng of raising his own reputation!
How could he have self-created such an extraordinary sword skill?
"Impressive."
Dan Qingsheng praised, clapped, slightly blushed:
"Even I haven’t reached the Great Perfection mastery level with Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship, yet you have. I am ashamed."
Just this sentence.
Exposed that his Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship was certainly not his creation.
Likely similar to Huang Zhonggong, merely consolidating his learned skills into the core of this sword technique, then claiming self-creation.
Because Ding Ling discovered this sword technique’s core criteria were extraordinary.
Yet Dan Qingsheng added numerous other sword moves into it, seeming somewhat chaotic, completely opposite to its core sword technique.
Very clearly.
Dan Qingsheng practiced Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship wrongly.
Ding Ling did not point this out.
Exposing another’s scars is tantamount to hitting someone on the face.
This is unethical.
Especially when the other party is a person teaching you techniques.
If they were a bad person, an enemy, Ding Ling wouldn’t adhere to ethics and etiquette, but Dan Qingsheng didn’t provoke him, so naturally, Ding Ling wouldn’t pointlessly uncover someone’s scars.
"All right."
Dan Qingsheng coughed dryly, seemingly to mask his embarrassment:
"Next, I’ll teach you my Inner Power Heart Method and other sword skills. How much you can learn depends on your comprehension."
"Thank you."
Ding Ling expressed his gratitude solemnly.
Dan Qingsheng waved his hand, then started demonstrating sword moves and explaining the core heart technique and mantra.
Basically, as soon as he finished speaking and demonstrating.
Ding Ling’s Divine Skill automatically reached full level.
Under Dan Qingsheng’s expression of existential doubt and shock, Ding Ling breezed through, mastering over ten sword skills at full level.
Leaving Ding Ling feeling slightly regretful.
Those sword skills were low tier and middle tier, only enhancing foundation, unable to improve Four-dimensional Attribute Points!
Granted, still quite precious.
And through these sword skills, Ding Ling confirmed Dan Qingsheng randomly added unrelated sword moves into Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship.
Of course. He must have thought it wonderfully praiseworthy!
But upon seeing Ding Ling demonstrably execute Splashing Ink and Wearing Hemp Swordsmanship.
He awkwardly seemed to want to find a hole to hide in.
Now Ding Ling effortlessly wielded over ten sword skills, each displaying the Sword Master’s elegance, further making Dan Qingsheng blush with embarrassment.
He no longer doubted Ding Ling’s talent and aptitude.
Instead, after offering praise.
Then taught his Inner Power Heart Method.
Only once.
[White Rainbow Heart Method Full Level]
[Inner Power Value +100]
Instantly!
Boom!
Raging Primordial Qi surged like tidal waves!
Ding Ling sat cross-legged.
With each breath!
Two white strands flowed from his nostrils.
His entire aura visibly soared at an exaggerated pace!
"...!!!"
Dan Qingsheng’s mind raced, mouth agape, chin seemed ready to drop to the ground, utterly shocked, unable to contain himself!
Though prepared mentally.
Yet truly seeing his decades of painstakingly practiced Inner Power Heart Technique.
