Chapter 77 Everything Breathes
Perhaps she didn't expect that this [Evil Swordsman] with a bad reputation in the East China Sea would actually show such a polite attitude at this moment. Shigetsuki Shinko couldn't help but be surprised. Her palm shook slightly and almost caused the wooden tray to become hot. The tea was spilled.
Shigetsuki Koushiro quickly held his wife's arm with quick eyes and hands, patted it a few times to express comfort, and then motioned for her to go back to the back room to rest.
Shigetsuki Makoto apologized and left the guest room in small steps.
"The madam was a little rude, which made Mr. Toya laugh." Koushiro smiled apologetically at Adrian, and then returned to the topic, "The swordsmanship scrolls in the Isshin Dojo can be borrowed for free for Mr. Toya to have a look at. I don't know what Mr. Toya wants. What’s the question? ”
Adrian held the teacup in his hand and said in a deep voice: "I would like to ask Mr. Shuangyue, what is [breathing of all things]?"
A strange color flashed in Koushiro's eyes. He lowered his head and took a sip of tea. "I didn't expect that Mr. Toya would understand the threshold of a swordsman at such an age."
Adrian smiled slightly and said nothing.
[All things breathe] is indeed the threshold for a swordsman.
Only swordsmen who successfully understand [Breath of All Things] can possess the means of [Cutting Iron]!
There is no doubt that Koushiro Shigetsuki, who can say this, is definitely a swordsman of the swordsman level!
And it’s ‘at least’!
After a moment of silence, Koushiro told Adrian what he knew about [the breath of all things].
"There is a kind of swordsman in the world. He can cut off anything he wants to cut off, and he can't cut off anything he doesn't want to cut off...
"When he thinks about it, even hard steel becomes like crispy tofu; when he doesn't think about it, even light paper becomes like tough leather.
"This is because they have understood [the breath of all things], or the [rhythm of all things].
"Whether it is a tangible thing or an intangible thing, as long as it [exists], there will be [breathing]; as long as there is [breathing], there will be regular [fluctuations].
"At the peak and trough of [fluctuation], the state of all things is completely different, and the power they can withstand is also very different.
"As long as a swordsman completely understands this [rhythm], he can gain the power to cut through everything.
"..."
In the blink of an eye, Adrian had been lingering in the Dojo for several days.
When it comes to the accumulation of swordsmanship knowledge, due to the previous mission of [Kendo Bailiu], Adrian is not inferior to other swordsmen who have been practicing swordsmanship since childhood.
Coupled with the unreserved knowledge imparted by Koushiro Shigezuki, who was at least a 'swordsman', Adrian was only a thin film away from breaking through the door of the swordsman level at this time!
This day.
Adrian closed his eyes and sat cross-legged in an uninhabited clearing in the woods outside Shuangyue Village, doing his daily routine of swordsmanship meditation.
In front of him, there was a gray-white boulder as tall as a man, with a thick white rope wrapped around the boulder's waist. This was also the object of his swordsmanship practice in the past few days.
To understand the rhythm of all things is not to simply feel the breath around you.
If it's just the latter, then anyone who masters the Haki of Visibility and Color can do it.
But being domineering is common, but being a swordsman is quite rare!
It doesn't mean that you can be called a swordsman by covering your sword with a layer of armed domineering and then easily splitting steel with one strike!
Adrian completely relaxed his state of mind, completely emptied his self-consciousness, and connected with all the natural things around him. At the same time, he did not forget to try his best to let go of perception and sight.
Slowly, a weak but clear 'voice' began to echo in his mind.
Breathe - Breathe - Breathe - Breathe -
In Adrian's world of perception, the huge rock in front of him seemed to come alive. The originally motionless gray-white watch case was now like biological skin, undulating slowly and orderly.
Adrian opened his eyes suddenly, and those pitch-black eyes were shining with extremely bright light.
Snow stepped out of the sheath and waved lightly.
Miso——
Amidst the sweet sound of the knife, the huge boulder as tall as a man in front was cut in two. The cut ends fell to the left and right sides with gravity, and the cut surface was as smooth as a water mirror.
"Cut the iron!"
[Advanced mission [Breathing of All Things] has been completed. 】
[You gain the expertise [breathing of all things]! 】
[[Breath of all things] - Expertise: If all things breathe, there must be death, and all things must have their end and destruction. Whether it is a tangible object or an intangible object, it can be cut off at will! When attacking with swordsmanship, the weak points are revealed and the critical hit effect is +200%. 】
Got a new feat!
Adrian perked up and looked carefully at its effects.
"For swordsmanship specialties like this, like the previous [Sanqianliu], I always feel that the first half of the description has a stronger specific effect than the second half..."
Adrian scratched his head, a little puzzled.
"Can't it be simpler and more crude like other specialties? Look at [low-level tough life], and then look at [strong body], what a simple and detailed description."
After a few random comments, the follow-up information prompt on the panel also came.
[Detected that the level 60 advanced task has been completed! 】
[You obtain the advanced profession [Swordsman] of [Swordsman], and your strength is greatly improved, with strength +5, agility +5, intelligence +5, 5 free attribute points, and 1 skill point. 】
[You understand the skill [Master-Level Swordsmanship Training]! 】
[You understand the skill [Master Sword Skill Affinity]! 】
[You understand the skill [Sword Power]! 】
As expected, the subsequent upgrade profession of the swordsman is the swordsman.
The first two skills are also evolved versions that have been upgraded along the way. [Swordsmanship Training] can gain swordsmanship proficiency through practice, and [Swordsmanship Affinity] can increase the understanding of swordsmanship and improve the power of swordsmanship.
As for the final [Sword Power], it’s a bit baffling.
Adrian originally thought that the upgraded skill after [Sword Aura] would be [Flying Slash], but now a [Sword Aura] appeared, and he quickly checked the skill effect.
[[Sword Power]: Visible energy turns into invisible power, and the power and cohesion of the slashing attack are greatly increased. 】
"Actually, this is a flying slash attack, right?!" A black line appeared on Adrian's forehead.
The large amount of free attribute points saved from upgrading are all thrown into the intelligence attribute. It is so simple and crude for the ghost fruit ability user to add points.
Adrian looked at the panel information.

Adrian was very satisfied with his success in advancing to the swordsman level and his strength skyrocketing.
But when he thought of the experience needed for the current upgrade, he felt a little bitter at the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that the plan to harvest player experience cannot be stopped. Players in the South China Sea should be impatient!"
