Swordsmanship Coach: Kill with One Slash

Chapter 199: Chapter 146: Heavenly Dao

On the third day, morning light streamed in.

Su Xing stood by his window and couldn’t help but give a huge stretch.

The fatigue from his breakthrough was completely swept away.

He felt his muscles. Their texture was so smooth it hardly felt like skin, a fact that surprised even Su Xing.

It had now been three days since his breakthrough.

To absorb the changes from his breakthrough, he had slept for an entire day afterward, only waking up just now.

At this moment, Su Xing could feel that his mind was exceptionally clear and relaxed, like an insomniac who had finally gotten a perfect night’s sleep.

It was an incredibly comfortable and satisfying feeling.

On the edge of the desk, there was a note covered in small, elegant handwriting.

Su Xing walked over to the desk and gently picked up the note. A quick glance was all it took to understand. It was a message from Lu Anning, who must have left it after seeing him sleep for a full day.

It contained words of concern and congratulations on his successful breakthrough. She told him not to worry, as she would help take care of things at the Sword Hall.

"This kid..."

Su Xing couldn’t help but click his tongue and say, "Acting like a little adult."

’I should go find her in a bit.’

’I slept for a whole day. Lu Anning and my little brother must be worried.’

’Also...’

’I wonder if my uncle has arrived yet.’

A face, somewhat blurry from the passage of time, flashed through Su Xing’s mind. It was his uncle as he remembered him.

’He had something to take care of.’

’I wonder what it is.’

Su Xing muttered.

However, he didn’t dwell on it. It was perfectly normal for someone who hadn’t been back in a long time to have errands to run.

’Time to test out the growth from this breakthrough.’

He stood his ground, and the Black Sword materialized abruptly.

BANG!

A wave of energy erupted outward with Su Xing at its center!

"This..."

Su Xing hadn’t expected the Black Sword’s appearance to be so dramatic.

Luckily, though the commotion was great, its range was small. Aside from the desk and chair next to Su Xing, which were instantly blown apart, nothing else was damaged.

Su Xing hefted the Black Sword, and he instantly understood why its appearance had caused such a stir.

For one simple reason:

The Black Sword was just too heavy.

After this upgrade, the weight of the Black Sword, already a heavy greatsword, had become even more exaggerated. Su Xing wasn’t even sure what to compare it to.

In short, if he hadn’t broken through from the fourth to the fifth tier, he probably wouldn’t have been able to lift this sword at all.

That was the extent of the Black Sword’s improvement.

As the sword’s weight increased, its power in Su Xing’s hands would naturally grow stronger and more ferocious.

However, as for just how ferocious it could be,

Su Xing would have to find that out in future battles.

Su Xing clenched his right fist, and the Black Sword instantly disintegrated, dissolving into specks of black light that vanished from the room as if it had never been there.

Immediately after, a red light flashed.

A crimson longsword appeared at Su Xing’s side.

Compared to the Black Sword, the Sparrow Sword was both thinner and shorter, but its advantages were its speed and sharpness. This time, the Sparrow Sword’s improvements were mainly in these two areas.

The sword moved with his thoughts.

The motionless body of the Sparrow Sword suddenly stirred, beginning to fly in high-speed circles around Su Xing.

To Su Xing’s eyes, the crimson longsword was creating afterimages so quickly that it seemed to split into three or four new copies every second.

In just a moment, Su Xing felt as if countless Sparrow Swords were whirling madly around him.

The Sparrow Sword’s high speed instantly whipped up a violent gale, which surged outward in all directions with Su Xing at its center.

But, before the gale could cause any damage, Su Xing clenched his right fist again, and the Sparrow Sword dissolved into red energy, vanishing within the room.

"Not bad."

"The Sparrow Sword’s speed and power will catch my opponents completely off guard in a fight. This will be a huge boost to my combat abilities."

Su Xing couldn’t help but sigh with admiration.

A life-and-death struggle is never a simple trade of blows. Aside from raw power, the more trump cards you have like the Sparrow Sword, the better.

Because it’s these kinds of tactics that can most easily tip the scales of victory. A single surprise attack could cost the opponent their life.

The changes to the Sparrow Sword and the Black Sword were certainly huge, but they weren’t the main event of this breakthrough.

Specks of blue light abruptly appeared.

The next moment, a translucent blue longsword materialized in Su Xing’s hand.

This sword’s appearance was completely silent.

It had neither the Black Sword’s exaggerated wave of energy nor the Sparrow Sword’s heaven-defying speed, but the Snake Sword had something unique.

Namely, the snake on the sword itself.

The Black Sword and the Sparrow Sword also had different animals engraved on their blades, but those creatures were truly just engravings, showing no signs of sentience—at least not yet.

But the Snake Sword was different.

The snake on the Snake Sword was sentient; in other words, it was alive.

As long as Su Xing kept staring at it, it would occasionally turn its head to glance at him before turning back to its original position, as if waiting to see when he would put it away.

The Snake Sword’s combat power stemmed mostly from this one snake.

Whenever he encountered an enemy, it could emerge to help him fight. Su Xing had already seen its power very clearly in that other space.

Although he couldn’t test it for now, Su Xing was certain its power would be shocking—or at the very least, astounding.
