Chapter 166 -165: Sword in the Heart
A sword aura!
It cleaved through the air for a whole meter!
Russell’s feet were planted firmly on the ground, his body leaning forward at a fifteen-degree angle, frozen in the stance of swinging his sword.
He was still caught in an immense wave of astonishment.
“Sword aura!”
“Battle Qi released!”
“I’ve actually succeeded, damn it!”
Every time he saw other knights brandishing their weapons and unleashing various edges of auras, he felt an intense envy in his heart.
But now, it was his turn to wield the sword aura: “The main meridians in my arms have been pieced through with the momentum of Minor Circulation Perfection, along with the remaining Origin Dragon’s Breath, directly puncturing the palm meridians, hence I can now discharge Battle Qi from the palm of my hand!”
This would normally require painstaking effort that could wear down a stone, with knights needing to cultivate day and night to achieve success.
However, with the aid of a breath of Origin Dragon’s Breath, Russell had pierced it all in just an hour.
“Truly… like a dream, so fantastical!”
He slowly retracted his fine steel longsword, straightened his body on the spot, and looked up at the sky at a forty-five-degree angle, his heart brimming with joy and reflection.

During this morning’s knight early class, he was still painstakingly practicing “Radiant Swordsmanship Technique,” trying to open up the main meridians in his legs while cultivating Fighting Qi Penetrating Power.
Following the original path of cultivation.
After mastering Fighting Qi Penetrating Power, there was still Fighting Qi Rotating Power and Fighting Qi Instantaneous Power to learn. Once these three Battle Qi techniques were mastered, one could roughly have all the main meridians opened up, and then it was possible to attempt to pierce through the palm meridians.
Once pierced, Battle Qi could be released outward, extending through a weapon, and finally forming—Battle Qi Sword Aura.
Fighting Qi Penetrating Power!
Fighting Qi Rotating Power!
Fighting Qi Instantaneous Power!
Battle Qi Sword Aura!
These are the four stages of cultivation for an Armed Knight, and mastering these four Battle Qi techniques and opening up all the minor meridians signifies promotion to the stage of a Great Knight.
“Phew, who says that there’s no shortcut in cultivation, dragons are the shortcut!” Russell wished he could embrace Lord Medikalun and plant a kiss on him.
All thanks to the vain and masochistic Bipedal Flying Dragon giving him the opportunity to be treated.
It was just a Snow Demon Crystal; any other Bipedal Flying Dragon would have probably communicated with its contract family long ago, asking the family to cure its ailment.
Russell would never have had the opportunity to benefit.
Thinking it over, Russell couldn’t help but laugh: “I originally wanted to help my grandfather, to thank him for gifting me the Tobacco Sprite Niko… Who would have thought that in the end, the benefits would fall upon me… This must be the reward for being a good person.”
Shaking his head, Russell stopped his idle thoughts.
He had just mastered Battle Qi Sword Aura and was still eager to continue practicing swordsmanship for another hour.
“Whooosh!”
“I’ve already perfected Fighting Qi Penetrating Power, but I have yet to master Fighting Qi Rotating Power and Fighting Qi Instantaneous Power, so I need to keep practicing!”
Every sword practice session involved these three Battle Qi techniques, but primarily Russell had practiced Fighting Qi Penetrating Power.
Fighting Qi Penetrating Power simply required the guiding of Battle Qi to form a penetrating force, and didn’t demand too much Battle Qi. Both Fighting Qi Rotating Power and Fighting Qi Instantaneous Power, on the other hand, required ample Battle Qi for support, which were difficult to display with weak Battle Qi.
In training field No. 1, Russell’s figure was flipping and soaring.
The sunlight fell, and his fine steel longsword reflected streaks of sword light from different angles, with an occasional sword aura flying out a full meter before dissipating.
Not choosing to practice with other knights, Russell was there alone, slowly adapting to his new level of power.
An exhilarating hour of sword practice allowed Russell to fully adapt to his current state, and he could now wield the Battle Qi Sword Aura effortlessly.
“However…”
He suddenly came up with a peculiar idea: “Must the Battle Qi Sword Aura necessarily rely on a weapon to release? Without a weapon to extend the meridians, can the Battle Qi not be released externally?”
This was indeed the case.
Once a knight loses his weapon, he can no longer release battle qi outwardly.
If one could release battle qi without the help of a weapon, that would not be called battle qi anymore, but should be classified as magic.
For example, the Phantom Beast Knights can release Prime Breath Greatsword Skill, which is a type of magic.
“Ordinary Great Knights certainly can’t release battle qi independently, but I am different!” Russell left the training field and went to the indoor training hall—some abilities must not be displayed casually in front of others, one must be cautious.
After closing the door of the training room, he then lifted his left hand, focusing his gaze on the palm.
The M-shaped mark, following his mental call, slowly began to burn.
On the periphery, there was also a Sword Butterfly Mark the size of a sesame seed.
Russell’s gaze settled on the Sword Butterfly Mark, “I have the Sword Butterfly Amber Bug, and a Sword Butterfly is indeed a being that can release sword glows independently!”
Though the Sword Butterfly is small, with the opening and closing of its wings, it can release sword qi, which is not much different from sword glows.
The only difference might be that the sword qi released by the Sword Butterfly should be classified as magic.
“Sword Butterfly, can you help me release sword qi? Whether this sword qi belongs to battle qi sword glows or to magic, as long as it can be released, that’s enough,” Russell conveyed his thoughts to the Sword Butterfly Mark, and then clenched his fist fiercely.
The M-shaped mark, Sword Butterfly Mark, and Thorns Mark were all crushed, turning into sparks that scattered into the air and disappeared.
The next moment.
A vague notion entered Russell’s mind, causing his eyes to twinkle instantly with light.
“Beautiful! Sword Butterfly!”
“Though I have no sword in hand…” Russell threw the fine steel longsword back onto the weapon rack of the training ground, then began to perform the “Radiant Swordsmanship Technique” with his bare hands, his index and middle fingers together as if they were an invisible sword.
As his figure danced gracefully, battle qi quietly followed his wishes, converging towards the palm of his right hand.
At this moment, with any weapon at hand, one could treat the weapon as an extension of the meridians, and then release the battle qi outwardly, displaying the battle qi sword glows.
Unfortunately, he had no weapon in hand.
“But I have a sword in my heart!”
This sword was both hands, and also the Sword Butterfly Amber Bug.
Russell’s eyes were resolute, he used his arms as the swords and his fingers as the blades, thrusting forward suddenly. Instantly, all the battle qi gathered at the palm, contained but unreleased, accumulating and building up. This overload of battle qi, having no outlet, even began to sting his palm.
However, just then, within the meridians of his right hand, the figure of a gracefully dancing butterfly emerged vaguely.
With the appearance of this butterfly figure, all the battle qi accumulated in the meridians underwent a marvelous change in an instant.
This change was intangible, invisible, and imperceptible.
But Russell felt a surge of openness in the meridians of his right hand, and immediately all the battle qi rushed along his will, surging towards his fingertips.
Next.
Pfft!
A faint white sword glow shot forth a distance of one meter in front of him, piercing through the air and leaving a slight sonic boom.
“It worked!”
“Haha, I knew it would work, Sword Butterfly!”
One success meant repeated successes, and Russell’s hands fluttered rapidly, sword glows continuously flying out from between his fingers.
Not until he had drained all the battle qi from his body did he emerge from the room, gasping for breath.
“Master.” The personal servant Ram quickly handed over a clean towel.
After wiping off his sweat, Russell sat in a chair to rest for a moment, still savoring the miraculous use of the Sword Butterfly that just allowed him to successfully deploy the battle qi sword glow without the use of a weapon.
“Releasing battle qi sword glows independently, I am the sword, and the sword is me!”
“This move, shall be called… The Six Meridian Divine Swords.”
