Trinity Traitor: From One Person to the Other

Chapter 952 Swordsmanship
Wang also didn't want to learn, and correspondingly, Feng Shayan, who had just been strengthened, and Xia He also didn't really want to learn anything new.

What He Songling had taught them before was enough for them to digest for a while.

"How about I learn it?"

Fu Rong hesitated. Her natural talent wasn't particularly outstanding, and she had encountered a strict teacher. When she was learning her craft, her teacher always disliked her, and her path afterward was always bumpy, both in her cultivation and in life.

However, she was content, feeling that things were good enough as they were, and that she could just get by.

This person must have a big heart, after all, they're someone who doesn't worry about owing more than 800,000 yuan in online loans.

However, the battle she just fought against Ma Xianhong made her realize the gap in their strength.

Fu Rong wasn't the kind of extreme practitioner who insisted on climbing to the top just to see the view. She always believed that being good enough was sufficient.

But that previous battle made her realize that she, with her 12th-grade superior talent from Biyou Village, who would be considered a high-ranking member of any sect outside, was simply not keeping up.

If it were just me, I could simply stay out of this mess. But now that I'm with Zhuge Qing, my love-struck mind is starting to take over again.

"I can't always be Qing's weakness and a burden, can I?"

Thinking this through, Fu Rong's hesitant gaze finally hardened, and she made up her mind, "I want to learn. But regarding sword energy, you..."

"Hahahaha, sword qi? You're worried I can't do it?" He Songling laughed heartily. "Do you know what I was known as when I was young? The Three Ones Sword Saint! I created the entire Three Ones Sect's sword qi technique. Tell me, wasn't I amazing?"

Zhuge Qing, standing nearby, exclaimed in a tone reminiscent of Tang Xiansheng seeing Liu Qingzhu, "Sanyi Sword Saint? Aren't you called Sanyi Traitor?"

"bass!"

The next second, Zhuge Qing's head spun around and flew into the air, landing at Fu Rong's feet.

"How was my swordsmanship?"

"Fine, fine, but is it necessary to kill my boyfriend to prove it?" Fu Rong sighed and pulled out two sharp knives. She couldn't beat him, but blinded by love, she had to avenge her husband.

Fu Rong's resolute decision at this moment was exactly the same as Du Fusong's when facing Nikaido Eita, who had just killed his wife.

However, Zhuge Qing quickly made her stop.

"Oh dear, this is hard to find." Instead of spitting out a large spurt of blood as expected, Zhuge Qing staggered toward the severed head that had fallen to the ground, bent down to pick it up, and put it back on his own head.

"Is it right?" Zhuge Qing's vocal cords seemed to be slightly dislocated, and his voice had an electronic echo. "Fu Rong, can you take a look for me?"

"???"

Fu Rong's eyes widened.

"No, you...you have this ability?" "I don't have this ability. It's all thanks to Old Ling's immortal aura. You can't really think that Old Ling would kill me on a whim. You want to fight a god? Let's see how capable you are."

With Fu Rong's help, Zhuge Qing fixed her head and gently ruffled her hair in a slightly reproachful manner.

"You don't need to underestimate yourself. The amount of Qi I have is just right according to your ability. If I want to keep someone alive in this state, I would have to use at least twice as much."

He Songling could control everything in his world, making people not truly dead even after they died, bringing them back to life, and ensuring they didn't lose everything outside.

While it may not be enough to change all the realities of this planet, it is still possible to carve out a portion of the "world" and have similar abilities and authority within the scope of one's own world.

Actually, he could have simply chopped off Zhuge Qingtou and then brought him back to life without any problem. He Songling was also a deity; the maximum damage he could heal with his double-handed healing techniques was probably a severed waist, or even more. Therefore, as a deity, He Songling could easily reattach a person's head while they were still alive after being beheaded.

However, this is meaningless. It's pointless for him to just show off his divine abilities; there's also the intention of testing Zhuge Qing.

After a sorcerer activates a formation, they can, to a certain extent, completely control the area within the formation. This is what Wang Ye and the Three Madmen of Wudang initially misunderstood as "transforming myself into king."

However, the several array formations later taught to Zhuge Qing, combined with the integration of array formations into a single, immortal technique and array, naturally resulted in something different. Due to the incorporation of the Reverse Life Qimen technique, Zhuge Qing was able to achieve a certain degree of fusion between his body and the array formations.

Although it still couldn't guarantee survival after decapitation, it at least ensured the survival of the victim, so He Songling took the opportunity to help.

"You're doing well. In a while, you'll be able to regenerate your own head."

He Songling estimated Zhuge Qing's progress and figured it shouldn't be too far off. Rebirth after decapitation isn't difficult; the reason Si Chong and Cheng Zhen couldn't do it back then, besides their incompetence, was also because the Reverse Rebirth Triple Technique at that time was still very crude and not very "immortal cultivation."

The current Reverse Life Technique, improved by He Songling, can theoretically reach up to five levels, directly pointing to the path of immortality. At the same time, it has incorporated more detailed cultivation methods and realms. Reaching the level of Si Chong and Cheng Zhen back then is not easy, but it is by no means extremely rare.

Rebirth after decapitation was something He Songling and Zuo Ruotong could achieve when they were at the second level. Although it wasn't easy, it wasn't far off. It could even be done without reaching the third level; Zhuge Qing, with the immortal techniques he had imparted—and being taught by a deity—wouldn't find it difficult either.

This can be considered a lingering problem left by He Songling. Although the elders of the Sanyi Sect have planned their cultivation levels, they like to use the ability to be reborn after being decapitated as the dividing line between strength and weakness.

"Hehe, thank you, thank you." Upon hearing this, Zhuge Qing happily cupped his hands to He Songling, and then instructed Fu Rong, "So, you must learn from Lao Ling. He's quite skilled."

Let her learn it. Fu Rong originally wanted to learn it for Zhuge Qing's sake, and now that she's found it can actually enhance her strength, it's a pleasant surprise.

"What subject are you studying? Oh well, never mind."

He Songling had just asked the question when he swallowed it back. "Among the extraordinary people in the world, the basics and methods of sword cultivation are all pretty much the same, so I just taught them casually. To be honest, I don't know much about sword energy..."

What I know includes: Mount Tai Sword, Penglai Sword, Flowing Cloud Sword, Wudang Tai Chi Sword, Taiyi Xuanmen Sword, Japanese Buddhist Sword Style, Shinto Munen-ryu, Itto-ryu, Niten Ichi-ryu, Yoto-ryu, Western Swift Sword, Bologna Sword, German Meyer Geometry Sword…”

Fu Rong's eyelids twitched as she listened. Was this humility or just showing off? I'm just average talent. How could I possibly learn all these sword techniques?

He Songling seemed to have thought of this as well, and said, "Don't worry, just integrate them into one."
