After passing the word to Ying Liexiong, Ye Chen began to comprehend the word 'defend'.
Ye Chen had already comprehended seventy to eighty percent of the word's essence, only lacking the last twenty to thirty percent. As long as he comprehended this twenty to thirty percent, he would be able to reach the level of a perfect supreme defensive sword technique.
In the strange space of the word 'defend', the silhouette displayed the defensive sword technique again and again. Every time he displayed the defensive sword technique, Ye Chen would gain some insights.
"Defense is just a goal, the process does not need to be blindly defensive. One can borrow strength to fight strength, one can retreat to advance, one can advance to retreat, one can meet force with force, one can change hardness to softness, one can use softness to overcome hardness. The process is ever-changing, but the result is the same, which is to block the enemy's attack."
Leaving the strange space of the word 'defend', Ye Chen took out the Heavenly Star Sword and began to practice.
In the past, when Ye Chen used the sword technique, the five colored sword light would form a huge ball of light to protect Ye Chen. Now, when Ye Chen used the sword technique, the sword light would change from visible to invisible, from colored to colorless, but once it entered the range of the sword technique, it would be out of control, the sword energy would surge, making it hard for people to tell what was real and what was fake. Instead, it was ten to a hundred times stronger than the huge ball of light formed by the five colored sword light.
On this day, Ying Liexiong arrived nearby, excited to see his prey, Ying Liexiong punched at Ye Chen, "Be careful!"
Ying Liexiong was a top expert among the Legendary Supremes, his fist energy was vast, even if it was just a casual attack, it would far surpass the Desolate Spirit on the 747th floor of the Desolate God Tower. Before the fist energy arrived, Ye Chen's sword technique had already fluctuated, like a tsunami crashing over, wanting to destroy all of his defenses.
"Retreat to advance, use softness to overcome hardness, turn hardness to softness, meet force with force, advance to retreat, borrow strength to fight strength!"
Almost subconsciously, Ye Chen took a series of measures. First, he avoided the sharpness of the fist power, avoiding the most powerful attacking point of the fist power. Then, he softened his sword power, using softness to defeat the toughness. When the fist power weakened a bit, his sword power suddenly became more aggressive. He took the posture of advancing as if he was retreating. Finally, he used the power of the fist power to counterattack, which dissolved most of the fist power. Although the remaining part of the fist power could not be dissolved, the damage it brought was reduced by hundreds of times.
"Alright! This defensive sword stance of yours is almost at perfection, right? "
Ying Lie Xiong praised.
He had only used one ten-thousandth of his strength in that punch. It should be known that he was different from Ye Chen. Ye Chen's battle prowess had only reached the Legendary Supreme level, while he had reached the Legendary Supreme level in all aspects. In every aspect, he was far superior to Ye Chen. Therefore, even if it was just one ten-thousandth of his strength, not everyone would be able to withstand it.
"Just a little more."
Ye Chen let out a breath and looked at Ying Lie Xiong.
"There's no rush. Cultivating martial arts isn't something that can be done in a day. Sometimes, you need to gain enlightenment."
"Yes, the leader is right."
How could Ye Chen not understand? Right now, his defensive sword stance was infinitely close to perfection, but it was just lacking a little bit. Ye Chen had a feeling that if he wanted to reach perfection, he had to grasp the principle of returning to the origin. It was like a whirlpool in the deep sea. It didn't matter if it was a glacier or a tsunami, as long as the whirlpool was big enough, it would be able to swallow everything and dissolve everything.
"When are you preparing to comprehend the word 'Wu'? Lan Yue has already comprehended it for almost a year. When the year is up, we will decide on the next person to comprehend it."
Ying Lie Xiong asked.
Ye Chen thought for a while and said, "Then it's my turn! Who knows, I might be able to comprehend the essence of the word 'Defend'. "
"Alright."
Ying Lie Xiong nodded.
Very quickly, Lan Yue came out of seclusion. On the first day, she came to find Ye Chen and wanted to spar with him.
"Ye Chen, you need to be careful. This time, comprehending the word 'Wu' has allowed my blade techniques to improve by leaps and bounds. All of them have reached perfection."
"Just bring it on."
Ye Chen smiled.
"Revolving Blade Wheel!"
Lan Yue used a powerful blade technique right from the start. The spiraling blade light swept around crazily. Compared to the past, Revolving Blade Wheel's charging time was shorter, and the explosion was fiercer.
"Break!"
Using Overlord Sword Stance, Ye Chen blocked it with his sword.
Clang clang clang …
Overlord Sword Stance was also a great perfection sword technique, and it was evenly matched with Revolving Blade Wheel. When the blade and sword clashed, sparks flew everywhere.
"Overlord Blade Chop!"
"Void Breaking Blade!"
"Illusionary Moon Blade!"
Lan Yue's ultimate moves were frequent. Every move was a Great Success Supreme Saber Move, and it wasn't an ordinary Great Success Supreme Saber Move.
Unfortunately, against Ye Chen, none of these techniques were effective.
"Taste the blade technique I created based on the word 'Wu' — Blue Age!"
Lan Yue's whole body leapt up and gently slashed down with her blade. All of a sudden, a crystal shattering sound was heard, and blue crystal fragments were everywhere. Ye Chen's sword attack could not completely destroy the crystals, and could only make them more and more fragmented, which was hard to defend against.
"Amazing!"
How could Ye Chen not see that Lan Yue's blade technique was close to perfection?
If he used Sword Burial Art, Ye Chen would definitely be able to break it, but he wanted to try Defensive Sword Stance.
When Defensive Sword Stance was used, the sword light was formless and colorless, but Lan Yue could clearly feel a whirlpool forming where Ye Chen was. Her blade energy disappeared without a trace. Of course, Blue Age was close to perfection. Although it couldn't break Ye Chen's Defensive Sword Stance, it could make Ye Chen too busy to counterattack.
"You're really abnormal. You've comprehended the word 'Defend' to this level in such a short time."
Lan Yue descended from the sky and said speechlessly.
Ye Chen said, "Your Blue Age is not bad. It has the meaning of endless." Lan Yue mainly cultivated the yin and yang profound. Yin and Yang coexisted, and Blue Age displayed the essence of the yin and yang profound to the extreme.
"But, it's not perfection yet!" Lan Yue sighed and took out a huge stone from her storage ring, handing it over to Ye Chen, "This is the word 'Wu'. Comprehend it well."
…
In the courtyard, a huge stone towered there, with a huge word written on it — Wu!
This word seemed like an emperor. It was only a word, but it gave Ye Chen a feeling of inferiority. It was as if this word had transformed into an invincible martial artist. Even if it was motionless, it still gave off an intense feeling of intimidation, not daring to have the slightest blasphemous thought.
"The word 'Wu' left behind by a demigod contains at least half of the demigod's martial arts essence, his lifetime of comprehension!"
Ye Chen could feel the boundless essence of martial arts from the word 'Wu'. Just a little bit would be enough for him to digest for a long time. It would be impossible for him to digest it completely, unless he could become a Legendary Sovereign, and a peak one at that. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to comprehend this word 'Wu'.
"I'll take it slow. I'll cultivate the Five Elements Sword Arts to greater completion first, then to perfection."
Ye Chen calmed his mind and entered the strange space of the word 'Wu'.
