Chapter 666: Chapter 203 Regardless, you win! 【Two in One】_2 Chapter 666: Chapter 203 Regardless, you win! 【Two in One】_2 “I see, it’s indeed remarkable as a clan secret technique with unique advantages.”

“It’s not just this. All martial arts, secret techniques, and secret methods in the world are the same at their core. They can only overwhelm those weaker than oneself. Against those of the same level or stronger, their effect is minimal. The so-called ‘winning with a weaker force’ is basically a coincidence or a contrarian method.”

The Cat Emperor casually said, “For instance, your sword strike could split both person and weapon in half if they’re at the same level or weaker than you. Even if they’re slightly stronger, they can still be bested by you. But… what if you’re against a powerhouse of the Nine Colors Supreme level?”

The Cat Emperor chuckled, “Even if your sword possesses unparalleled sharpness, the moment you engage me, I can strike back using just a tree branch. I wouldn’t worry about the branch breaking.”

Feng Yin sighed, “Indeed, that’s how it is.”

“Skills are nothing but trifle, only allowing one to show off momentarily. But power can make one rule for a lifetime. The lifelong cultivation of us martial artists is, frankly speaking, a process of gathering strength. To be a little bit stronger than others, that’s all.”

Dong Xiaoyan asked, “Isn’t there a technique that allows the weak to defeat the strong?”

The Cat Emperor laughed, “Such techniques… indeed, exist. The sword technique Feng Yin just used is such a technique. However, such techniques are extremely rare, which is why I named them ‘contrarian methods’. Of course, I believe your Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace also has such secret techniques, but at least one needs to reach the Heavenly Level Six or above to be eligible to cultivate them.”

“Oh…”

Dong Xiaoyan nodded and turned to look at Feng Yin, becoming more puzzled.

Where did this kid learn such a contrarian trick?

According to the resources of Cloud Palace, one must reach Heavenly Level Six or above to be eligible for similar techniques, yet this kid, not even at Heavenly Level, has already learned it. Not only that, but he can also use it to defeat stronger opponents on a regular basis.

“There’s more inconceivability. Kid Feng’s single strike not only defies the natural order by allowing the weak to defeat the strong, but is also filled with profound marvels.”

The Cat Emperor recalled Feng Yin’s strike earlier, “Your sword technique cultivates sharpness, just this one point sets it apart from ninety-nine percent of the other techniques in this world.”

Feng Yin furrowed his eyebrows in thought and said, “Your Majesty’s insight is spot on… it’s pretty much like that.”

“Your technique gathers all your cultivation on the edge of the sword. Wherever the sword goes, it carries a sovereign force…”

The Cat Emperor nodded, “Indeed… It can shock the world and make the ghosts and gods weep.”

Dong Xiaoyan disagreed, “What’s so different about it? Doesn’t the usual method of nourishing weapons with True Yuan or merging with one’s weapon also follow the same path? How does it differ substantially from ninety-nine percent of the techniques in the world?”

“They are different. The differences are huge.”

The Cat Emperor, quite fond of Dong Xiaoyan’s character, patiently explained, “Let me ask you, when you use your sword, do you infuse spiritual power evenly along the entire sword to enhance its lethality? And in your view, Feng Yin’s technique doesn’t differ much from yours?”

“Yeah, isn’t that the case?” Dong Xiaoyan admitted.

“Of course not. You can infuse spiritual power along the entire length of the sword, but can you concentrate all the lethality on the sword point or the blade?”

The Cat Emperor, once again highlighting the crux, revealed the answer.

“Hmm… I see. Feng Yin concentrates Spiritual Power or lethality at one point, thereby achieving higher and more efficient focus against the enemy.”

Dong Xiaoyan, a seasoned veteran, instantly grasped the essence of what the Cat Emperor was saying.

“To be able to output one’s spiritual power and infuse it onto the weapon is already a mark of a proficient martial artist. However, according to the level of infusion, there are still differences. Generally, it can be divided into several parts.”

“The first step is to infuse the entirety of the sword with one’s cultivation, from the handle to the tip. This requires the consumption of spiritual power, thereby increasing the power of the whole sword!”

“This is what most martial artists can do and also the most common method.”

“The second level is to condense the spiritual power on the sword blade, meaning, no more spiritual power is infused into the handle, avoiding that part’s consumption.”

“And there is another advantage to this. It frees up your hand. Although you’re still holding the sword, you can abandon it at any time to save your life, without worrying about being caught off guard by the opponent. Does this make sense to you?”

“Yes, even though a weapon is the extension of a warrior’s arm, battlefield situations can change unexpectedly. When it’s necessary to abandon the weapon, one must do it immediately. Hesitating can only lead to chaos.”

“The third step then, is to focus spiritual power on the sword edge, tip, and blade.”

The Cat Emperor said, “In this way, the areas with concentrated sharpness become denser and more controllable. It becomes like an extension of your body, and feels natural. The level I mentioned before refers to this, but ninety-nine percent of cultivators find it difficult to achieve.”

“And finally, according to the point where the sword strikes, gather the spiritual power there. That is the final step in control of spiritual power and utilization of the blade edge.”

“When a sword strikes a person, the only part that truly functions is the point that hits the enemy. If, at that instant, all spiritual power is concentrated at that point. Then that point unleashes the maximum killing force of the entire sword. Of course, a sword like this can fight against stronger opponents, perhaps even against those several ranks higher. But throughout history, very few have been able to do this. So when I say, Kid Feng’s technique… it’s truly extraordinary.”
