From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 394 - 274 Wind Dragon Breathless Slash_2

Lu Heng was indeed a bit hungry, so he took it and sniffed, unable to discern what it was made of.

Su Muyu explained, "I went to ask the Erina Mage from the Twisted Tower, and she said this type of meat is edible."

The dietary habits of elves and humans are quite different.

However, most things that elves can eat, humans can too.

After eating his fill, Lu Heng got up and walked out of the vine cottage to the Stone Forest, where he drew the Aurora Blade from the void and began to train in the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Su Muyu sat in the shade next to the Stone Forest, took out a Rune Gem and an Engraving Pen, and began to practice Engraving.

After Lin Zeyu had his fill, he stretched lazily and complained, "I want to practice shooting too."

He had switched to the Electromagnetic Accelerated Sniper Rifle not long ago and still needed to get used to the feel.

However, live-fire training was impossible in the Abyss Battlefield.

The route to strengthening firearms was somewhat troublesome; each bullet needed to consume Divine Energy to be brought in.

Practicing shooting in the Abyss Battlefield was akin to cutting oneself and bleeding out.

Even though Lin Zeyu’s bullets were bought with money, their number was limited.

The duration of this Abyss Battlefield was 30 days, and during such a long time, if he used up his bullets, he would be no better than a foot soldier. He couldn’t just carry a sniper rifle and knock with it.

Therefore, he turned to practice Fighting in the Stone Forest instead.

His level in Fighting was also at the Master Level, and he would practice from time to time, but there were few opportunities to use it.

After all, he was a Sniper, usually shooting unseen from a distance.

If a Superpower User specializing in melee were to get close, even if he knew Fighting, he wouldn’t withstand the assault.

Of course, he still needed to train.

Training in Fighting was not just to improve fighting skills but also body attributes.

...

In the Stone Forest,

Lu Heng activated the Windwalker Skill, charged with power, and then slashed with the sword according to the Secret Technique of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Each time he swung his sword, a sound explosion occurred, with booming noises echoing through the Stone Forest.

After practicing several times, Lu Heng noticed a problem.

When Terres executed the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, his sprinting and slashing speeds were very fast, but he didn’t produce a sound explosion.

Yes, Terres didn’t cause a sound explosion when he performed the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

This was strange.

With Terres’s strength, if he wanted to produce a sound explosion, it would be effortless.

Moreover, when Lu Heng asked Terres to learn the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, the first requirement he mentioned was to create a sound explosion.

Back then, Lu Heng casually swung his sword and created a sound explosion, which led Terres to set the condition of killing five hundred Demons.

Lu Heng and his companions hunted Demons all night; initially, they kept count, but eventually stopped, certain the number was well over five hundred.

After returning to Storm Cliff, Terres didn’t ask about the number of Demons killed.

Because he didn’t need to. The scent of Demon on the trio was so intense that it could only come from slaughtering thousands.

Therefore, Terres simply demonstrated the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash and taught them the move.

Reflecting on the process of learning the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash from Terres, Lu Heng had a question.

When Terres performed the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, there was clearly no sound explosion, but initially, he insisted that Lu Heng should create one.

From his request, it seemed that producing a sound explosion was a basic condition for mastering the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

So why was there no sound when he swung the sword?

A sound explosion is the noise produced when a blade breaks the sound barrier.

The sound barrier is a strong resistance encountered by an object moving at speeds close to the speed of sound in the air.

This powerful resistance causes intense vibrations in the object and a rapid decrease in speed, a phenomenon known as the sound barrier.

In other words, it is impossible to break through the sound barrier with speed barely reaching the speed of sound.

As soon as it touches the sound barrier, it will be suppressed by this force, and its speed will quickly reduce.

Therefore, a more formidable force is needed to break through the sound barrier.

When an object breaks through the sound barrier, it compresses the air in front of it, forming high pressure, which gradually accumulates at the object’s front, eventually forming a shock wave.

At the surface of the shock wave, the energy of the sound waves is highly concentrated.

These energies propagated outward in the form of sound waves, thereby forming a sound boom.

Lu Heng closed his eyes, carefully recalling the profound mystery of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash and comparing it with the situation when Terres executed his sword technique.

Soon he found the true profound mystery of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Terres indeed had not created a sound boom, but that did not mean there were no shockwaves formed when he wielded his sword.

Not only did shockwaves form when he wielded his sword, but the energy on the shockwave surface was also extremely fierce.

Under normal circumstances, when the energy on the shockwave surface was compressed to a certain degree, it would burst forth in the form of sound waves, triggering a sound boom.

However, when Terres executed his sword technique, he did not cause a sound boom because he controlled this energy, compressing it on the blade to the extreme, forming a powerful wind pressure, which finally transformed into the slashing Wind Dragon.

That was the true profound mystery of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

Having understood this, Lu Heng began his practice anew.

When executing his sword technique, he began suppressing the energy, forming wind pressure, before finally slashing forth.

Boom!

With one slash, a sound boom was triggered.

This slash still resulted in a sound boom, but the wind pressure created was much stronger than before, showing obvious progress.

Lu Heng continued to practice, constantly suppressing the sound boom and increasing the wind pressure.

One slash followed another, each one a breakthrough.

Because Lu Heng had already seen the training level prompt.

[Practice the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, training level +1]

However, he was only practicing the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash at this point, not having mastered it yet.

After comprehending the profound mystery of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, Lu Heng saw his training level increase with every sword strike.

Practicing the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash was very draining on physical strength; Lu Heng trained at a pace of one slash per minute, hurling sixty slashes in an hour, and his body began to feel fatigued.

Lu Heng did not stop but continued to practice; after two hours and over a hundred slashes, sweat appeared on his forehead and back, soaking his clothes.

After two hours of practice, his physical strength was nearly depleted.

Lu Heng stopped to rest, eating to restore his strength.

After a good rest, he resumed his practice.

On the first day, he persisted in practicing for over ten hours, completing a thousand slashes, exhausted to the point of falling asleep where he collapsed.

The next day, he woke up again in a state of full vigor and continued to refine the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash.

In repeated strikes, the wind pressure from the slashes grew stronger, while the sound of the sound booms became increasingly softer.

The quieter the sound boom, the stronger the control over the wind pressure energy.

Lu Heng did not expect that, three months after mastering the Sound Explosion Sword, he would now be working to make the sound boom disappear within another three months.

Boom boom boom...

The sound of sound booms echoed in the Stone Forest, but with each passing moment, the sound grew increasingly softer.

Lin Zeyu, perched on the mountain peak, aiming his rifle, found it strange to hear the diminishing booms, thinking perhaps the power of the sword strikes was weakening.

It wasn’t until he returned to the Stone Forest in the evening that he discovered violent winds raging within.

The whirlwinds Lu Heng slashed forth began to show signs of forming into Wind Dragons, each sword strike summoning a tornado that churned and roared through the Stone Forest.

After three days of practice, Lu Heng officially released a Wind Dragon.

The Wind Dragon howled through the spaces between the stones, lifting gravel, earth, and even boulders the size of millstones up into the sky.

Lu Heng had evidently developed the rudiments of the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, even if its power fell far short of that wielded by Terres.

Starting from the fourth day, Lu Heng directed his sword strikes at stone pillars, and the Wind Dragon, howling, swept against them.

Tornado Blades carved grooves on the pillars with every strike, yet it was still a long way from lifting the stone pillars.

Terres, high on Storm Cliff, didn’t pay much attention to Lu Heng’s training progress, but since Lu Heng trained in the Stone Forest every day and he could see the results every time he stepped out of the cave, he managed to note Lu Heng’s advancement even without direct scrutiny.

Seeing that on the fourth day, Lu Heng had already released a Wind Dragon, Terres was very surprised.

It reminded him of the past with Orelana, the queen of the Elf Clan, who before becoming queen was a humble and studious student with exceptional Talent.

When he taught her the Wind Dragon Breathless Slash, Orelana had also managed to release a Wind Dragon within a few days.

Two hundred years had passed, and he never expected to encounter another who could release a Wind Dragon within just a few days.
