God Slayer Chronicles 86 Silverlight Swordsmanship

Sha Ku searched the library for two hours, the hours went by drolly, though. Silently they walked by, reading the brief summaries of the tattered old books and cracked bamboo scrolls.

Often while opening the techniques and arts Sha Ku and Yu s.h.i.+ would suddenly sneeze, blasting the dusty tome's waste far away.

Sha Ku scanned through the library far faster than Yu s.h.i.+ could, each book in his hand was studied by his divine sense; he did not need to read them. He would know what he was looking for when he found it.

'Iron Man's Wrath – Coat your skin with metal and go into battle, without fear or forethought, be an invincible war machine on the field of war!'

"G.o.ds no." Sha Ku snarked to himself, shoving the tattered old tome back into the wooden bookcase.

'Wind Scythe – Let the wind become your feet, your legs, your body. Stream through the air like the gentle summer's breeze, and slice down all in your path like wheat in the field.' "What a load of bupkis." Sha Ku looked at one scroll, detesting its supreme drivel.

South Guardians Sword. Bitter Bloom Arts. Ninefall Lightening…

Technique after technique was scanned and fully read by Sha Ku's divine sense, each of them utterly detestable. Furthermore, each of them seemed to have their weaknesses; if he practised them, he'd be just like a cup full of holes, losing the majority of his substance before he even tastes sweetness.

Suddenly after half an hour of hobbling through second rate techniques and martial arts, Sha Ku came across something intriguing.

Li Lu's Meridian Strengthening Guide. An intriguing name to say the least. The moment he read the t.i.tle; Sha Ku's imagination was fully captured.

Meridian Strengthening was a rare thing, even where Sha Ku came from. If one managed to strengthen their meridians, their latent potential would explode exponentially! If someone like s.h.i.+ Yu managed to obtain such a pristine methodology… it'd be like giving a tiger wings!

"Yu s.h.i.+, over here." Sha Ku beckoned towards Yu s.h.i.+, waving him over.

Yu s.h.i.+ walked over, an old tatty scroll gently tucked underneath his arm, carefully protecting the deeply valued goods.

"What is it?" Yu s.h.i.+ enquired, he was respectful of Sha Ku's insight and wisdom. At such a young age he'd managed to acquire such a vast repertoire of knowledge… it was almost suspicious. There were very few who'd managed to obtain such a thing. Furthermore, if there were people with inborn legendary wisdom of this calibre they'd often hide in the dark of night, not daring to leave their hideouts, afraid of the Wen's mighty reach…

"I found this; I believe it's what you're looking for." Sha Ku handed over the book t.i.tled - Li Lu's Meridian Strengthening Guide.

Yu s.h.i.+ stared at it deeply, reading it out loud, "Li Lu's Meridian Strengthening Guide – A technique for those who wish to bring out their truest potential. Dangerous are my ways, that of I, madman Li Lu, but if successful, never again shall you have an obstacle in this world of s.h.i.+fting ways."

Yu s.h.i.+ read it out, his eyes going wide like saucers with every word.

Giving a quick thanks to Sha Ku his grin turned great, spreading across his lower face. A deep and sincere look of thankfulness crossed his eyes, "Many thanks, Junior Brother." He stepped to the side, placing the book and the scroll on top of one another.

Sha Ku quickly sent out a strand of divine sense, invading the old tatty scroll that was locked underneath his arm, a pondering look crossed his face, "7 Palms of the Earthen Tiger."

His head bobbed up and down in a nod of approval. From what he could tell, this technique enabled one to move about and pounce like a tiger, having seven levels and a different palm strike in each. This would work wonderfully with a poisonous Qi's like Yu s.h.i.+'s.

As he charged in and slammed his tiger palm into the opponent, Qi would ravage their inner organs, forcing them to either submit, run or die fighting. Actually, the combination of the two was rather insidious in Sha Ku's eyes. His warrior's heart wasn't exactly the biggest fan of poison, especially when pertaining to those who could do well without it, and someone with the talent of Yu s.h.i.+ was undoubtedly one of those people.

On the other hand, though, his tactician's mind was screaming out in approval, looking out for the trap that would send rampant poisonous Qi throughout his enemies unsuspecting bodies – an ambush in a live fight! Brilliant!

Like that, an hour pa.s.sed, but Sha Ku wasn't satisfied no. He wanted to search the whole place from head to toe, he knew there were some good things in here, something that would suit him and his combat style!

Like a madman he searched through Sword Technique after Sword Technique, each more anti-climactic than the last.

Winter Wind Sword. Dao Blossom Arts. Ice Prince's Slashes. Sundering Skyfall!

Each promised more and more, yet the methodology in the text was flawed, inaccurate of ultimately limited….

Letting out a sigh Sha Ku placed his head against the bookshelves, eyes bloodshot and exhausted. His divine sense was teetering on the brink of collapse, worked ragged and thin, no longer the glossy golden strand, but like a dark-grey sheep in nature. Sickly and ready to die.

"Ugh." Sha Ku rested his head against the bookshelf making disgusting sounds of enervation, drained of all vitality.

Bang!

A large solid book fell against the back of his head, with a large crack!

Falling to the floor the big hefty leather tome the size of four books put together laid there, it's writing silver and s.h.i.+ny, so much that it hurt to look at!

'Silverlight Swordsmans.h.i.+p,' was its t.i.tle. Standing there bold and proud, like a divine brand, left by an immortal!

'Silverlight Swordsmans.h.i.+p – The collective knowledge of the Silverlight Swordsman and his collective experiences. Whilst not known for his vast cultivation and great deeds the Silverlight Swordsman was a fore to be reckoned with. Even the most famed of sword cultivators would come and dine with him, asking for his advice. This is not just a sword art, no, it is the way of the sword. The collectivisation and integration of all sword skills into one unimaginable art!'

As Sha Ku read these words with his mortal eyes, he was confused for a time. His mind struggling to comprehend the words. For four long minutes, he was thinking, pondering to himself what on earth it could possibly mean?

"Wait?!"

"No… could it be?"

Sha Ku was confused, no. Actually, he was dumbfounded.

If he wasn't incorrect, then this 'Silverlight Swordsmans.h.i.+p,' was suggesting. No. Telling him, that he could integrate Great Dao's into the Sword Dao.

That wasn't so hard, though, was it? Comprehending two Daos? No, it wasn't. What was entirely unheard of, even in his ears though, was fusing Daos, fusing comprehensions into one… it seemed like witchcraft!

From his knowledge, other than the infinitely rare combination Daos, such as Ice-Fire, Yin-Yang, s.p.a.ce-Time, which naturally came together, complimenting each other; Dao Laws couldn't be fused!
