Section 41: Unsurpassed Radiance Great Dragon Pattern, Selecting a New Sword Technique

  Shu Jia knife method is a genuine battlefield martial art. The knife style is simple, with little variation. One move forward, no room for retreat, life and death are decided in an instant.

  On the battlefield, every second counts and there is no room for too many changes. Techniques must be effective and ruthless, who gives you time to play with fancy moves? Therefore, martial arts on the battlefield emphasize using small injuries to exchange for big ones, using a small price to gain great harm, which itself is not suitable for solo combat.

  Chu Yun had always planned to abandon the Shu family's knife method and switch to other knife techniques.

  One reason is that the Shu family's knife method consists only of close-range knife moves, which are too monotonous and easy to be restrained. The second reason is that the Shu family's knife method also finds it difficult to bring out the special qualities and talents of the Drunken Snow Knife.

  It's been a whirlwind since he started school, with sudden changes and ups and downs, leaving him no time to formally transform. However, in his spare moments, he often ponders.

  In his previous life's later years, he also abandoned the Shu family knife method and switched to other knife techniques. He has experience in this aspect as well.

  "The Drunken Snow Sword has mediocre quality, and its spiritual light is not abundant. The recorded Shu Family Swordsmanship is relatively simple, but it can only record 7 moves. If the sword move is complex, this number will be reduced. In addition, the Drunken Snow Sword is made of hundred-year-old Drunken Jade and Snow Peak Coral. If you use snow-type sword techniques, its power will be stronger... These two points need to be considered comprehensively."

  Chu Yun pondered in her heart and came to the Scripture Storage Pavilion with Jin Bi Han and Yan Que.

  Yan Que's face was expressionless, but Jin Bi Han seemed to be on the verge of speaking. All along the way, she had been persuading Chu Yun not to act impulsively. Chu Yun just smiled and refuted her each time.

  The Zangjing Pavilion houses many Taoist scriptures and rituals.

  The Taoist method can only be used by demonic beasts, demonic soldiers, and demonic plants. The demon-taming master himself cannot cultivate it. Within the Taoist method, there are also four levels: lower, middle, upper, and absolute.

  Superior Taoist spells often have many descriptive words and impressive power. Inferior Taoist spells have fewer descriptive words, weaker power, but are more suitable for those with poor qualifications, small spiritual light, to comprehend and use.

  If you encounter a powerful and concise Dao method, congratulations, this is an extraordinary Dao method. For example: the Jadeite Dream Realm mastered by Jinyu Xian Die.

  Chu Yun's memory had many top-notch Dao methods. Most of them were the signature Dao methods of major powers, while a small portion was hidden in some perilous and remote places, not yet revealed to the world.

  The Tiān Gē Shū Yuàn's Cáng Jīng Gé has the most basic five elements of Taoist magic, including fire, earth, metal, water and wood. The attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder and wind are the most widely used. Whether it is a Yao Bing, Yao Shou or Yao Zhi, they often use these attributes.

  The Taoist techniques suitable for the Demon Soldier, although not many are recorded, but the vast majority are classics, which makes Chu Yun very satisfied. In his previous life, he could not touch these advanced knife techniques.

  Supreme Radiance, Heavenly Punishment, Great Dragon Pattern, Imperial Wind Style, Swastika Slash...

  One by one, the superior knife methods Jade Annals, Chu Yun is seen in the eyes, itchy in the heart, hard to swallow a mouthful of saliva, but there is no choice.

  Firstly, the quality of the Drunken Snow Knife is mediocre and lacks brilliance. If paired with a high-quality knife technique, it will result in insufficient knife moves. The power is stronger, but because it's monotonous and easy to be countered, its combat strength is relatively weaker.

  Secondly, these superior knife methods also have learning conditions. For example, "Wu Shang Guang Ming" requires the knife body to possess light attributes. The Drunken Snow Knife with only water attribute is unable to use it.

  His real target is those mediocre and inferior swordsmanship.

  Only those with rich experience understand: there is no strongest sword technique in this world, only the most suitable one for oneself.

  After choosing, he chose the most popular lower-grade sword technique "Half Moon Slash" as a long-range attack method. The middle-grade Taoist technique "Drunken Eye", as a weak enemy method. Middle-grade Taoist technique "Silver Light Snow", as an amplifier. Middle-grade sword technique "Snow Tooth", as a strong attack. Lower-grade body technique "Collision", as a speed increase.

  Such a combination conformed to Chu Yun's knife usage habits. The "conflict" and "half-moon cut" among them, he would use in his previous life, and there were memories of them in his mind. As for the other three, they had not been learned before, but similar Taoist techniques, Chu Yun knew many.

  These five Taoist techniques are equivalent to the enhanced version of Chu Yun's past life knife technique peak combination. The five Taoist techniques make the most use of Zui Xue Dao's Ling Guang. Now, Zui Xue Dao can no longer carry the sixth Taoist technique.

  This is the shortcoming of a medium-quality demon soldier, with insufficient spiritual light and relatively fewer carried Taoist laws. If it were a high-quality one, at least three more medium to high-grade knife methods could be added.

  Out of the Scripture Pavilion, Chu Yun immediately found a secluded place to practice.

  It's more like a rehearsal than an exercise. These types of knife techniques are so familiar that they've become second nature.

  After practicing for a while, Chu Yun was still relatively satisfied. He nodded secretly and thought to himself: "Although some new knife techniques have not been thoroughly mastered, the current combat power using only the Drunken Snow Knife is almost the same as in his previous life. From now on, unless he finds excellent materials to re-forge and upgrade the Drunken Snow Knife, there is almost no room for improvement in this area."

  Thinking of this, Chu Yun felt a sense of accomplishment in her heart. Since her rebirth, she had been studying at the Tian Ge Academy, eating the best food every day, persisting in taking elixirs, and undergoing tireless training. Her strength had entered a period of rapid growth, increasing very quickly.

  Chu Yun thought to himself that if he were to fight his current self against his past life's later years, it would be a draw. But if he were to fight his past life's peak period, he would lose more often than win.

  This is already very impressive. At the age of 13, he has just started his career and achieved such accomplishments, which shows that the cultivation of a demon master indeed cannot be separated from the environment. No wonder those prodigies can achieve astonishing results.

  All of this, apart from Chuyun's own efforts, the good development environment of Tiange Academy is also very crucial and cannot be ignored.

  Chu Yun came back to her senses and saw that Jin Bi Han and Yan Que were staring at her with their eyes wide open, as if they were looking at a monster in human form.

  "What's wrong with you two?" Chu Yun asked in puzzlement.

  "Chu brother, are you still human?" Jin Bi Han blurted out. She had just witnessed with her own eyes, Chu Yun mastering a brand new Taoist technique, from being clumsy to proficient, in just a short moment!

  One moment?

  If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have believed it even if you killed her. Originally thought that Chu Yun was young and had already achieved great things in knife skills, which was already a remarkable talent.

  I didn't expect this qualification to be not just exceptional, but against the heavens and demonic!

  Yan Que was also stunned, for a moment, looking at Chu Yun, he couldn't say a word.

  "What are you talking about?" Chu Yun's forehead was covered in cold sweat, knowing that the other party had misunderstood. He was actually just re-familiarizing himself, and it was only his first time practicing with a brand new body. As a result, he gave off the false impression of having a demonic talent.

  These achievements are the result of his hard work and struggles in his past life, where he exhausted his lifespan and went through many trials and tribulations.

  Chu Yun was about to make up some excuses, but suddenly saw Yan Que's expression and had a change of heart: "Perhaps, being misunderstood isn't such a bad thing after all. Let Yan Que be shocked for now."

  Yan Que was indeed thoroughly shocked.

  He almost thought he had fallen into a fantasy as he recalled what just happened.

  He stood still on the spot, and the unyielding spirit that had been hidden in his heart unknowingly dissipated more than half.

  Chu Yun walked ahead, and he unconsciously quickened his pace to follow. As he gazed at Chu Yun's back, there was shock, inquiry, and curiosity in his eyes.

  He couldn't help but think of the scene at that moment on the mountain peak. The golden light enveloped Chu Yun, setting him off like a god.

  Unconsciously, Chu Yun's back figure seemed to have become a sun. In Yan Que's eyes, there was light, rising steadily. He himself followed behind Chu Yun, as if he had stepped onto a path of light, with an endless future ahead.

  He slightly shook his head, dispelling the illusion in his mind. He unconsciously blinked and took a deep breath, at this moment his emotions were quite complex: "It seems like I've bowed to an extraordinary master..."

  The mountain arena is packed with people.

  Since Chu Yun completed the inheritance task, the expeditionary army has been decreasing at a noticeable speed. When Chu Yun drew lots, he often drew blanks. The scholars of this age all have proud airs and are unwilling to lose face and admit defeat. So they found various excuses, "accidentally" or "helplessly" absenting themselves.

  "Although unwilling in their hearts, they were extremely eager to have a battle with Chu Yun. However, faced with reality, acknowledging defeat and surrendering was the only option, so they could only offer up their betting money first." — This was their unanimous, unspoken explanation.

  However, today was an exception. The momentum of the expeditionary force surged again, with the previously defeated Guardian Envoy mixed in.

  The reason for this phenomenon is only one - that is, Ning Yiyang reappeared today after disappearing for the first time and came to observe in person.

  "Flower Master, you said today you would defeat Chu Yun in public. This... are you really confident?" Ning Yiyi was dressed in a light green peony dress today, her delicate white skin as tender as fresh lotus root, making her look even more lovely and delicate. Her eyes sparkled with autumn waves, her eyebrows filled with emotions as she gazed at Hua Ying. There was surprise and anticipation in her eyes.

  Since Chu Yun entered school, she has become a thorn in her heart and a nail in her eye. The more popular Chu Yun becomes, the more annoyed she feels.

  Today, Hua Ying suddenly came to herself, but it was to inform her that she would take personal action and pick Chu Yun out of the wind and waves. Ning Yiyi was naturally both surprised and delighted.

  Hua Ying wore a white martial artist's uniform, with a sword hanging from her waist, looking elegant and refined. She smiled calmly and said: "Yi Yi, don't worry. Chu Yun has three weaknesses, while I have three advantages."

  "Oh? I'd love to hear more." Ning Yiyi's eyes suddenly lit up.

  "Chu Yun's first defeat was due to his temperament. He was arrogant and recklessly brave, charging forward impulsively. His rise to fame came from a single battle, which sounds impressive when told. In reality, it was just an outburst of ferocity. The greatest power in this world lies in wisdom, not in physical strength. This principle, he has yet to grasp. Indeed, with just one provocation, he agreed to my challenge." Hua Ying stood with his hands behind his back, speaking slowly and elegantly.

  Ning Yiyi covered her mouth and smiled, flattering him by saying: "In terms of strategy, how can Chu Yun be a match for the clever Flower Master like you?"
