Xiao Tian took out another wooden sword, held it, and said with a resounding voice, "Sword Control Technique is about controlling the sword with your heart and moving it with your Spirit. Watch carefully!"
With that, Xiao Tian gently shook the wooden sword, and the sword body trembled slightly, as if it had come to life.
Xiao Tian said indifferently, "The heart is the master of the sword. You must cast aside distracting thoughts and focus on the sword. Feel the sword's aura and connect with it."
Xiao Wu and the other two also closed their eyes, trying to calm their hearts and feel the wooden swords in their hands.
"Look!"
Immediately, Xiao Tian flicked his wrist, and the wooden sword in his hand danced lightly in the air, drawing arcs.
"Let your Spirit permeate the sword, injecting your own Spirit into it, making it an extension of your body."
Xiao Tian demonstrated and explained the key points of the Sword Control Technique.
Xiao Wu and the other two widened their eyes, carefully observing Xiao Tian's movements. Zhuqing asked, "Xiao Tian, how do we make our Spirit permeate the sword? The 'Spirit' you mentioned should refer to spirit power, right?"
She could understand that the 'Spirit' Xiao Tian mentioned was spirit power, but their spirit power, when released, was too wild. She feared that the moment it touched the wooden sword, the sword would shatter.
However, to her surprise, Xiao Tian shook his head and said, "The 'Spirit' I'm referring to here is actually mental force, which means controlling the sword with your will. But with your current strength, you probably can't project your mental force to control the wooden sword. In that case, you can only use a lower-grade method, which is to use spirit power. However, this requires much more precise control of your strength."
The three girls were slightly stunned. Controlling the sword with mental force?
Seeing the three girls looking a bit confused, Xiao Tian also sighed.
At this current timeline, Spirit Masters with mental force Spirits were still relatively few. Most of the knowledge related to this type was in the hands of the Spirit Hall, so it was normal for them to be confused.
Even Ning Rongrong, because their own Spirit leaned towards support, probably had very few records related to mental Spirits and mental Spirit Beasts within their Sect.
As for Chen Xin, Xiao Tian guessed that he probably only knew how to cultivate and wouldn't teach others; otherwise, he would have long since handed down the Sword Control Technique to the Sect.
Xiao Tian patiently explained, "Generally speaking, your mental force realm will not exceed your spirit power level. Do you know why even if a Spirit Master's physical quality is strong enough to absorb a ten-thousand-year spirit ring at the fourth spirit ring level, it's still not recommended?"
As he spoke, Xiao Tian glanced at Xiao Wu.
Xiao Wu hesitated for a moment and said, "Is it because after a ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast dies, it leaves behind resentment in its spirit ring, and this resentment will impact the Spirit Master's mental force? Only when a Spirit Master reaches level fifty do they have enough mental force to resist!"
At this, Xiao Wu understood, she completely understood!
"Right! Exactly. So, the only thing you need to do now is precisely control your spirit power. Even if you fail to learn the Sword Control Technique later, it will still be very helpful for your future cultivation."
"In the book I gave you, there's a spirit power guiding technique I created that can enhance your control over spirit power."
Soon, a morning passed, and Xiao Tian looked at the wooden fragments on the ground, lost in thought.
"Cough, cough, I don't have any extra wooden swords here. You guys can just make do with the fragments on the ground for practice. The Sword Control Technique isn't something you can learn overnight. You can practice it in your spare time; there's no need to rush too much.
When I have time, I'll see if I can improve the Sword Control Technique. It's still too difficult to expect you to precisely control your spirit power to a certain degree in a short time."
Xiao Tian said with some helplessness.
Perhaps his demands on Xiao Wu and the others were too high. It was only because he had the comprehension boost given by the system that he could learn so quickly. For Xiao Wu and the others, it would probably take a while to learn.
The three girls had long anticipated this. They didn't expect to learn it all at once, so their faces didn't show disappointment; in fact, they even looked eager to try!
Because they could truly feel their own progress. Fine spirit power control itself was a form of training!
When they used Spirit Abilities, they needed to estimate in their minds how much spirit power to inject to achieve a certain amount of power.
For example, if a Spirit Ancestor and a Titled Douluo both use their first Spirit Ability, the latter's power will definitely be stronger. This is because the latter injects more spirit power.
And with their current practice, in battles at the same stage, they could better judge how to precisely control their spirit power for combat.
Moreover, during the training process, their spirit power was constantly being consumed, which also helped to improve their strength!
Rest time.
Chen Xin then walked over and sat down beside Xiao Tian. "You said, can the three of them really learn the Sword Control Technique?"
Xiao Tian shook his head and said, "It's hard to say. The Sword Control Technique itself is about controlling the sword with Spirit. Because our own Spirit is a sword, there's no problem using spirit power to control the sword. But the swords Rongrong and the others are controlling are not their Spirits, which greatly tests the quality of the long sword. However, controlling the sword with mental force would be much simpler.
But the problem is, besides Spirit Masters who specialize in mental force, who can achieve mental force projection at an early stage? Grandpa Sword, even you probably can't, right?"
Chen Xin smiled. He really couldn't.
Suddenly, he thought of something and said, "What if we give them suitable head Spirit Bones? That should solve this problem, right?"
Xiao Tian said, "If the head Spirit Bone enhances the Spirit Master's mental force, then naturally it can. But the problem is, head Spirit Bones are the most precious Spirit Bones besides external Spirit Bones and torso bones. I'm afraid even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can't produce a ten-thousand-year head Spirit Bone, can they?"
Chen Xin: ...
Yes, if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could produce one, they would have long since let him, Gu Rong, and Ning Fengzhi absorb it to improve their strength. Why would they keep it?
It seemed that Xiao Tian's teaching was a long and arduous task. He was truly looking forward to that day.
He wanted to be a witness to history!
A few days later, Tang San finally assembled his Godly Zhuge Crossbow and brought it before Chen Xin.
"Senior Sword Douluo, this is the Godly Zhuge Crossbow I developed. It can cause considerable damage to Spirit Masters below the Spirit Ancestor level!"
Tang San said confidently.
"Oh? Then fire it at me. I want to see if this little thing is as miraculous as you say!"
Chen Xin said indifferently, and the Seven Kill Sword appeared in his right hand.
Tang San nodded heavily, pressed the trigger, and whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, dozens of crossbow bolts shot towards Chen Xin.
Chen Xin's eyes narrowed slightly. He swung his Seven Kill Sword, deflecting all the crossbow bolts, and sighed inwardly, acknowledging that it indeed had the power to kill a Spirit Ancestor.
"Not bad, Tang San. How do you plan to sell this Godly Zhuge Crossbow?"
