Sword Among Us chapter 1034 - full winds in wide skies | English Novels Online

After One Emperor left, Happy quickly cast out many of the thoughts in his head. Time was pressing, and he really did not have the time to care about any other emotions in him. To fight against Evil Emperor when he came to the Chinese server and Class One Hall, whose strength had increased to an unimaginable degree, he had to seize every moment he had to increase his strength.

He shut himself in a prison cell and sat down cross-legged resolutely. Then, he brought out the stone plate from his Universe Bag. By now, the quest item had already passed the protection time for quest items.

‘The divine monk from Dafo Temple seems to be comparable to Punishment Mount’s Mad Monk when it comes to qi realms. The ultimate martial art contained in this stone plate shouldn’t be something simple, or else, it wouldn’t have attracted Evil King Shi Zhixuan as well as Kind Boathouse.’

Happy flipped over the stone plate repeatedly to size it up and observe whether there was any mechanism hidden inside. He also carefully ran his finger across it to sense the material and uniqueness in the stone plate.

He had been running around with the stone plate for a full day, and now, he finally had time to carefully observe the stone plate in his hand.

When he held it in his hand, it was heavy. The pattern on it did not seem to be carved onto the stone plate with a normal method, because Happy had seen that male player try to destroy this stone plate with everything he had, but the pattern on the stone plate was still complete, and no sign of ruin could be seen on it.

‘What material was used to make it?’ Happy was slightly shocked.

Even though there were plenty of items that were difficult to destroy in the game, such as Wild Silk Handkerchief, this was still the first time he saw a stone plate made with such a unique material.

Why did the divine monk from Dafo Temple carve his legacy on four different stone plates?

The puzzlement in his heart grew.

Dafo Temple had been destroyed for many years, and it was only natural that he could not uncover many of the secrets inside.

‘I’ll understand the ultimate technique inside before anything else.’

Happy soon ignored everything else and focused his full attention on studying the patterns on both sides of the stone plate.

The stone plate was only about the size of two palms, and the patterns were very clear. On the surface was a picture of a scenery, and it depicted a willows tree swaying in the wind. There were no words on it. On the back was a lake.

There were no words as well.

Happy did not receive any system notification.

Happy’s expression turned slightly stiff, and a bad feeling started growing in his heart.

‘Could it be… that if I only have one of these, it’s completely useless?’

Happy flipped the stone plate around repeatedly, and the excitement in his heart also started disappearing slowly.

He had been searching for a long time, but he could not find any clues or mechanisms on the stone plate.

There was not even a single word on it, and neither did he receive any system notification.

The worst was that the system notification he previously received told him that he had to understand what was drawn on the stone plate before he could learn the ultimate technique inside. Happy gritted his teeth and stared at the stone plate for half an hour, but he did not get any information from it.

‘I refuse to believe in this nonsense.

‘Since Shi Feixuan and Evil King left with their stone plates, it’s impossible that there is no secret in my stone plate.’

He continued observing it.

A strong refusal to admit defeat surged up in Happy’s heart. His gaze burned as he continued staring at the picture of the willows swaying in the wind.

Another hour passed.

Happy sighed in resignation and flipped over the stone plate. He had already remembered all the patterns contained in the picture of the willows swaying in the wind, but he still gained nothing.

‘Is it the lake behind this stone plate…’

Happy’s gaze landed on the circles of ripples on the surface of the lake.

For some unknown reason, when he looked at the lively lake carved at the back, Happy suddenly remembered the Moon in Well he learned from Kuo Zhong in the other world.

Inspiration flashed in his mind.

Could it be that there was no meaning behind the picture, and it was really telling him information about how he should have his state of mind to be?

Moon in Well required his heart to be as calm as the water reflecting the moon.

Happy was delighted, he felt that he had seized on a series of thoughts.

He stared at the ripples on the lake, and Happy gradually relaxed, calmed down, and slowly closed his eyes to remember his state of the mind after he understood Moon in Well.

As he breathed, peace descended in his heart without his knowledge.

The Myth Realm criminal nearby who had been staring at Happy held his breath.

He had not understood why Happy had been flipping around the item in his hand all this while, but now, as Happy calmed down and breathed casually, he gradually frowned.

He could sense that Happy’s perception was slowly widening, and a calmness that tolerated everything spread out from him.

No one knew how long had passed, but when Happy opened his eyes, a gasp filled with shock and delight rose in the prison.

“Huh?”

When he opened his eyes and had his eyes land on the stone plate, Happy gained a strange feeling.

At that moment, the surface of the lake on the stone plate seemed to have started creating layers of ripples, and they spread out slowly, as if they had become alive.

Happy sucked in a sharp breath in disbelief, but he did not dare readily destroy his current state of mind. He focused his attention and carefully observed the stone plate.

A strange chance had indeed happened to the stone plate in his hands.

The lake on the stone plate became alive.

Wind, water, and ripples on the lake. Happy could clearly sense all the changes on the lake.

‘This is amazing. As I expected, I will only be able to see and understand the secret in the stone plate when I calm down and enter a state similar to the one the Buddhists speak of, by saying that the mind should be as calm as the water in an ancient well.’

A smile of relief, as if he had been removed from a huge burden, appeared on Happy’s face.

After a few hours, he finally understood the secret in the stone plate!

‘The surface of the lake is just the state of the mind I need to be in, and it’s the statement telling me how to activate the secret of the stone plate. Then, these willows swaying in the wind should be the one really containing the ultimate technique.’

Happy sucked in a deep breath and slowly turned the stone plate around.

Whoosh…

He flipped the stone plate around, and a faint breeze with the scent of willows came wafting into his nostrils. It was a refreshing scent.

In Happy’s eyes, the willows in the stone plate started swaying a little.

However, when he looked at it, Happy did not immediately gain any information.

However, Happy had already understood from the lesson he learned just now. When he faced the stone plate, he must absolutely not become anxious. He must retain a calm state of mind, with his heart as calm as the water in an ancient well.

Immediately, Happy calmly read through the stone plate.

The details of the painting and the frequency of the willow leaves swaying were all carved into the depths of his mind bit by bit.

Time passed just like that.

Happy used a total of half an hour to understand the stone plate.

The willows on the stone plate continued swaying.

Happy seemed to have caught onto something, and his gaze gradually turned solemn and focused.

Another dozen or so minutes passed.

The willows in Happy’s eyes stopped for a moment before a faint breeze blew. Suddenly, the rows of willow leaves turned into sword glares.

In Happy’s eyes, several willows turned into sword glares instantly, and they charged at his face without any prior sign. The lively picture shot out of the stone plate.

An astonishing presence also surged out of the stone plate.

Happy was astonished.

He activated his true origin aura.

The astonishing sword qi overlapped with each other to form a presence that brought Happy fear. Thick true origin instantly gushed out of Happy’s limps and immediately enveloped him tightly.

When the sword glares shot out of the stone plate, they seemed to have turned into rows of willows again, and with a slightly cold presence, they swept past Happy’s body.

Whoosh!

The rows of willows seemed to have turned into rows of sword glares again.

The sword glares then swept past Happy’s body. Their astonishing presence quickly whittled down the thickness of Happy’s true origin aura, and he could see it happening right before his eyes.

The true origin aura that was three feet wide completely crumbled when the fourth sword glare swept through his body, forcing Happy to quickly activate Indestructible Body to block the invasion of the sword glares.

Thud!

But Happy still underestimated the damage from the sword wills that shot out of the stone plate.

A total of eight sword glares charged out in a row. In an instant, their damage reached the peak, and they came at a speed that no one could handle within a short period of time.

His Indestructible Body instantly crumbled.

The remaining power in the seventh sword crashed violently into Happy’s body.

“Urk!” With a grunt, Happy’s body looked as if he was wheat cut down by the sword glare. His body was drenched in blood, and his body shuddered. He was thrown against the wall in the cell like he had been struck by lightning.

Bang!

The wall behind him even had cracks like a spider’s net appear on it.

Thud!

Happy coughed up a mouthful of blood on the floor, and he slid down from the wall. His chest heaved.

The Myth Realm criminal by the side had his eyes filled with fear and shock as he watched. He did not think that the seemingly normal stone plate in Happy’s hands would suddenly launch an attack that was as strong as an attack from a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm.

The young man in front of him had once remained completely unharmed when he attacked him at full force. But now, in the blink of an eye, he was nearly instantly killed by the baffling sword will attached to the stone plate.

The Myth Realm criminal’s gaze on the stone plate instantly became really strange.

*****

Happy could not believe that he actually managed to survive. The attack just now was equivalent to a martial artist at the peak of Myth Realm instantly attacking him eight times, and he had actually managed to block it at lightning speed.

He used his true origin aura to forcefully block the first four slashes.

His Indestructible Body had only blocked the fifth and sixth attacks, and he had actually suffered through the final two slashes. His body fortification crumbled. If it were not because of his full set of fourth-echelon demon vessels and if his defense was slightly lower, he might have been kicked off to the cycle of reincarnation already.

However, his risk was not wasted.

The sword wills just now which had suddenly exploded had actually allowed him to be instantly enlightened a little. He began to quickly deduce the scene of the lively willows turning into sword glares in his mind.

The system notification finally came.

“Ding!

“Successfully learned Full Winds in Long Skies, an ultimate skill from the stone plate left behind by Divine Monk Thousand Buddha Hands.”

‘Is Full Winds in Long Skies the ultimate skill left behind by the divine monk in the stone plate?’

While Happy wiped off the blood on his lips and his clothes, he suddenly stared at the stone plate that fell on the floor.

A strange thing happened.

After the system notification rose, a violent gust of wind rose from nowhere.

The stone plate turned into a gentle heap of powder in Happy’s eyes before wind blew at them and scattered everything away.

Happy said nothing.

Happy stared at the spot where the stone plate disappeared in pity. He sighed slightly before he quickly returned to normal. He summoned his martial arts log and observed the details of the ultimate skill he understood.

When he read it, Happy opened his eyes wide.
