After such an adjustment, Zhang Tie would promote to LV 12 a few days later. Meanwhile, Zhang Tie's overall strength would be firmer and more powerful. After all, he only needed 9 surging points to promote to LV 12. Therefore, Zhang Tie was not that urgent.
During these days of cultivation in Castle of Black Iron, Zhang Tie had forgotten about all the troubles outside. Zhang Tie felt that it was not a big deal. No matter how fierce the war between humans and demons was, Zhang Tie was not even a knight. Why would he care so much about that? The world would rotate when one was missing. His battle strength was the biggest guarantee for his survival. The more powerful one was, the more right he would have to speak and protect himself and the people on his side. Only then could he have a greater influence on the battle situation in the future. Even if a LV 6 soldier jumped around in the holy war, his meritorious deed might not match that of a knight who participated in one day's holy war for 100 years. After following Senel Clan for over 10 days, Zhang Tie gained nothing; however, Elder Muray solved the problem in half a minute.
Therefore, Zhang Tie continued to cultivate in Castle of Black Iron.
If a person who had difficulty in making a choice found that he had a Secret Knowledge Pavilion in the trouble-reappearance situation, he would definitely suffer a lot. It would definitely be painful if he had no secret knowledge.
It was painful not to have secret manuals, but there were so many secret manuals that you couldn't even finish reading. It would also be painful.
Thankfully, Zhang Tie didn't suffer from difficulty in making choices. Neither did he bite off more than he could chew. As for Zhang Tie, it was good as long as he could become more powerful. As for how to become more powerful, the strong would always be stronger. He should constantly maintain and expand his advantages so as to widen the distance between him and the others. This was the way to become a powerful being. Like what he did when he activated his ancestral bloodline, the great advantage in speed granted him the ability to challenge Scala at his level.
Therefore, Zhang Tie followed this train of thought when he chose the secret knowledge that he could cultivate.
Zhang Tie only skimmed over those secret knowledge in the Secret Knowledge Pavilion. He had a rough understanding of what kind of abilities those secret manuals could bring him. It took Zhang Tie 3 days to do that.
In the past 3 days, Zhang Tie cultivated step by step; meanwhile, he selected the first secret knowledge which could make him more powerful.
As Zhang Tie encountered a bottleneck in cultivating "Meteor Shower Swordsmanship", the first secret knowledge that he picked out from those secret knowledge books was called "True Explanation of Swordsmanship". This secret knowledge could be read by people below LV 9. This secret knowledge didn't contain any powerful battle skills or battle qi; however, Zhang Tie's understanding about battle skills and swordsmanship reached a wholly new level.
After studying the True Explanation of Swordsmanship, Zhang Tie didn't read other secret knowledge. Instead, he had to start the cultivation of his basic sword art in the Trouble-Reappearance Situations. This was a process of consolidating his foundation. In this process, Zhang Tie not only consolidated his swordsmanship foundation, but also his entire cultivation foundation.
In Hidden Dragon Palace, if one wanted to cultivate his basic sword art, he had to complete 8 million movements of the basic sword art, namely, chopping, picking, thrusting, lifting, breaking and stirring. This process was very hard. Previously, Zhang Tie didn't pay much attention to it. In Zhang Tie's opinion, the so-called battle skills only needed to be powerful. However, after studying the True Explanation of Swordsmanship carefully, Zhang Tie understood that all the power was based on the simplest and firmest foundation. Without the simplest and firmest foundation, the so-called power was just an illusion. It could only be powerful for a short time; however, it could not last forever.
What was the foundation of a powerful person? It was a strong will, an unflinching perseverance, a strong body, a faster speed than others, the best coordination of the body, mind, eyes, eyes, and steps, perseverance, 100% accuracy, concentration that could turn something rotten into something magical, and fine control that could carve a flower on a piece of tofu with a thousand-pound axe. There was only one way to achieve all of this, and that was to practice hard. Practice hard by repeating every simple action millions of times.
Not until then did Zhang Tie understand the reason why Hidden Dragon Palace listed the basic sword art as a compulsory course for all the students. It was not made up by someone, but the most profound realization of real powerhouses in cultivation.
Without a firmest foundation, one could not touch the peak of battle skills and battle skills.
Zhang Tie started to practice hard.
In the beginning, Zhang Tie cultivated his basic swordsmanship in the swordsmanship training center in the trouble-reappearance situation. Holding his sword by one hand, Zhang Tie could repeat the eight movements of chopping, chopping, picking, stabbing, lifting, breaking and stirring twice in one second, namely 16 times...
After 1 week, Zhang Tie held his sword by two hands and could launch 2 rounds of swords per second …
This was a tough challenge. In the beginning, due to different movements, Zhang Tie's two swords would always collide with each other. As a result, his steps would be disordered. However, Zhang Tie gradually adapted to it in a weird way and solved this seemingly unsolvable problem.
Zhang Tie found that as long as he treated the two long swords as the two abacuses that he visualized when he practiced "Mental Arithmetic by Abacus", he could control the movements of the two long swords at the same time and achieve the most perfect coordination.
This was a great discovery and a great attempt. After realizing that this attempt and method were feasible, Zhang Tie became a bit shocked. Because he knew what it meant. Before this, Zhang Tie had never imagined that he could master the method of multi-tasking without being taught. After applying the method of multi-tasking to his battle skills, he could almost double his battle strength to a certain degree. Now that the idea of the coordination of dual swords was feasible, the idea of the coordination of fist and sword was also feasible, the idea of the coordination of shield and sword was also feasible. An unprecedented way of cultivation appeared in front of Zhang Tie at once. As a result, Zhang Tie couldn't recover his composure for quite a while.
After recovering his composure, Zhang Tie changed the place where he practiced his basic swordsmanship from the trouble-reappearance situations to the Castle of Black Iron. He told Heller to draw down a large water flow from the sky. Under the fierce impact of the water flow on his body and each movement, Zhang Tie started to practice his swordsmanship in the water flow. At this moment, Zhang Tie didn't even need the steel puppet anymore. After staring at the steel puppet for so long, Zhang Tie could even feel the look of the steel puppet in front of him even if he closed his eyes.
In the water flow, Zhang Tie practiced his swordsmanship in front of the non-existent steel puppet in his consciousness and imagination. The two long swords in Zhang Tie's hands were the two heaviest heavy swords that could be found in Castle of Black Iron, each weighing 280 kg …
Zhang Tie was practicing his swordsmanship, his mind and his body. Each day, he had to squeeze out all the potentials of each cell in his body …
When he couldn't wield the 280-kilogram long sword, he would switch to a smaller one. He kept switching until his hands started to tremble even when he was holding the most ordinary long sword. Then, he would use his fingers to replace the sword. Under the fierce flow of water, he would use his fingers to repeat the eight movements of chopping, chopping, picking, stabbing, lifting, breaking, and stirring.
In such a hard practice, the number of times that he could use each hand per second gradually recovered from one round to two rounds. Almost each time he ate an iron-body fruit, Zhang Tie would feel a bit more comfortable in the fierce water flow. His movements would also become more agile and the number of times that he could use his hands would increase. However, soon, the strength of the water flow from the sky would increase, which offset his physical advantage once again.
In such a cultivation, Zhang Tie completely forgot about the time and how many times he had repeated the eight basic movements of swordsmanship. He only remembered that the 4th floor of All-spirits Pagoda had been opened and he had lit the 143rd surging point. He only needed one surging point to promote to a LV 12 great battle master …
...
When Zhang Tie woke up this day, he didn't feel anything different. However, when he picked up the two 280 kg long swords and prepared to cultivate again, he felt an indescribable sense of agility and intimacy from the two swords in his hands. The long swords were not swords anymore; instead, they had become a part of his body. When he closed his eyes, the long swords seemed to become his eyes. He could sense everything, including the slight turbulence in the air. When he raised his long swords, the long swords seemed to become his hands. He could touch and tear everything apart. When he poked the long swords into the ground, the long swords seemed to become his feet on the ground.
Zhang Tie's heart raced as he crossed his swords and waved them at once. With a loud sound of wind and thunders, two terrifying crescent-shaped sword qi flew out of his swords and crossed over all the obstacles in front of them as fast as lightning bolts. With a boom, they swept away all the grasses, trees and rocks within 50 m at the foot of the mountain, clearing a tunnel and leaving a huge cross-shaped gap on the mountain ridge...
Zhang Tie was stunned. In a split second, he felt that the "Meteor Shower Swordsmanship" was no longer awkward or difficult for him.
