Douluo Dalu: 9 Treasure Sword

(I depend too much of my intent and aura using to much spirit and stamina fighting being unable to fight long battles so to correct I will go to the outward part of the forest where only 10 years old beast live and practice fighting numbers with only relaying at the sword).

Through 1 month a go to the outward area and fight weak spirits beast every time increasing the number of them learn how to defend, evade, attack and counterattack with the minimum movement possible, learning battle experience.

(Now my spirit skill even though powerful it spends a lot of spirit energy, to reduce the best way it will be only activating at the correct instant during less than a second will suffice in the majority of case. So I'll we need to improve my spirit control permitting the active and deactivate instantly and without the necessity of the posture pointing up being activated anytime without wasting time or movement.)

The next 2 month a spent most of the time meditating controlling the flow of spirit power and injecting to rocks trying pulverize them without any movement of the rock or mine. Finally accomplishing after 1 and a half months and spent half month creating my new passive skill Recorded Light that permits me to 'write' the movement of the spirit flow in a layer of my sword that will necessary to point upward to do. So now only with injecting spirit power the skill activates being easier and because it's a single way being wrote there's very little waste decreasing the spirit consumption by 15 %. Only to 'write' this pattern I spent 3 days requiring a lot of control to do it correctly.

(My intent have two mayor flaws the first one being the consume of stamina and the second its invariability even though it main property it's protection augmenting the defense of it the only thing that I do is improve my sword attack becoming more powerful so a wasted of properties. For the stamina I need to do the something similar as the spirit power control it to only use the required controlling its input. For the invariability I need to change the aura form specially in some kind of shield form gaining another skill-like defense.)

I start meditating the way of the sword deepening my knowledge about. I tried to change the aura but seemed impossible to change the sword form, after that I tried to use my intent in combination with the Raising Breath finally noticing some change along the breath. Little by little I manage to increase my control of it. Finally after 3 months I completely can control the form of the aura spending more stamina with more bizarre form.

(Now I need to combine all of them, spirit, intent and swordplay so that it can be used fluently in battle. A practical approach it will be the best way.)

I start going in killing spree fighting with every spirit beast that cross my path while maintaining my mind eye, Stealth Treasure and Mirror Treasure always active even while maintaining my breath. Combining of all them with intent, spirit and swordplay until my body is near exhaustion, then I return to my cave and rest. After 2 month and a half I'm proud of having extinguished or at least nearly the Silver Wolves beast and the F.u.c.k.i.n.g Hungry Hamster beast (They don't gonna be hungry ever again). Even with little cultivation I broke through rank 20 having a hard fundation thanks to the battle experience. Also with the combination of intent and swordplay I create 3 new skills:

<Intent: Scattering Protection>: That make my intent surrounds me having an all around protection.

<Intent: Shield Protection!>: The skill with the biggest defense creating a kind of shield aura after my swings.

<Intent: Remote Protection!>: The same as the former but its created by piercing and moves forward creating a ranged defense a little less resistant.

Today it will be the final test before the Demonic Tree I will fight the three Beast King of the Forest at the same time. Going to an open area near the center I stay at the center then I stop the passive of Stealth Treasure scattering my spirit power all around the forest. I close my eyees and expand the Mind Eye being the actual range 50 m. After 5 minutes I sense the 3 Kings approaching Land Bull, Grass Eater Snake and Steel Monkey causing me to open my eyes and grin at them signaling with my hand to come attack. They angrily charge toward me at high speed I invoke my sword piercing to the ground <Intent: Shield Protection!> white aura scattering all around pushing the three beast 6 m (To weak I didn't even sweat. Now I'm ready for the True King.)

After almost 9 month I'm ready to fight the Tree. I wake up and like normal have my breakfast finishing with song invoking my first Oreo skill throwing out the dark part and eating the cream. Then I meditated a little to calm my sense and I go to the center area of the forest.

As I approach I can see the Demonic Tree standing alone at the center of the open area, now towering 60 m length "It seems that I'm not the only one that became stronger" I say. I inspire and dash towards it. Just setting my foot at the clear area 3 roots appears thrusting towards me, (60 m distance) I lower by body evading one of them slight steeping left for the other and lastly I cut the last one ,immediately regenerating, I continue forward (30 m) I sense something under my feet and I jump toward the left on my previously place appears a root trying to impale me. I continue (15 m) suddenly in front on me 5 roots block my way forming a wall and 3 roots try to attack me from behind I pierce the ground in front of me <Intent: Scattering Protection!> light scatters around me pushing all the roots, I recuperate the sword and continue running forward (10 m). 10 root are unearth in front lashing towards me like wh.i.p.s I close my eyes (Mind Eye Full Concentration) clearly noticing everything around 2 m of me I evade the whip-like roots. Lowering the body, light stepping toward one side, rolling, slashing, protecting toward the right side... it seems like an eternity but only 2 second passed (4 m) being completely surrounded by roots I jump forward twisting my body (1 m) I arrive at the base of the Tree I exhale and using all my strength <First skill: Fire Power> <Intent: Shield Protection> surrounding my sword with red and white light being more powerful and resistant I slash the Tree cutting 3 m of its diameter with a thickness of half centimeter then the white aura left at slashing expanse creating a shield opening the cut to 5 cm. In only need half second for regenerate its trunk closing the cut (More than enough) just having finished the slash I pierce forward at the cut made previously <Intent: Remote Protection> the white light push forward with great strength breaking the tree finally piercing through the trunk. The root that were about to hit my back stop a 1 cm of distance and start to disintegrating. The trunk being chopped falls to the ground with a loud "BANG!" above the stump manifesting a purple ring.

(The strongest property of this Demonic Tree was its regeneration and vitality, so absorbing this spirit ring it is probably that it give me a skill related with vitality or stamina, the perfect one with the use of my Intent). I sit in lotus position recuperating some energy. Passing 10 min I start absorbing the purple ring with my sword. After 30 min I finished absorbing it and the skill obtained is:

<Second skill: Wood Stamina>: Slowly erodes the opponent stamina absorbing for you causing more fatigue for the opponent until him faints. The rate of absorption depends of the rival being of the same level rival doubling his consumption of stamina when attacking.

(So no more to do in this forest, better to notify to uncle Bone) I take the pagoda's statue and just as I was about to break I listen in a low voice "eat, eat" I look my surrounding without finding anyone but the sound still being listened or more correctly it will be sensed a sensation more than a voice. Then I close my eyes and use my Mind Eye finally locating the sensation at my left hand. I invoke my Oreo spirit surrounded by a white ring this time listening louder "eat!eat!" (WTF is this shitty cookie trying to say). Suddenly the Oreo stats glowing with a white light and like being a lantern the light signals at the feet of the Tree. I approach and following the sensation start to dig after 1 m I find two red potatoes "EAT!EAT!" I sense this time very loud (I'm gonna follow your intruccion cookire but if it's a trap like poison I'm gonna eat you) I think completely knowing its my inert spirit. I start eating finally stopping the voice tasting its sweet flavor like strawberry (It's good! But doesn't seems to be any change at eating except the voice stopping). I decide to start meditate sitting in lotus position having invoked my Oreo spirit and closing my eyes.

When opening my eyes I'm in a forest with a hard black ground and fluffy white leafage that seems like clouds there's also some milk river ( This is not an balanced breakfast). Besides me there's and open part and at its centers stays the red potato previously eaten "Cranch! Cranch!" I listen eating noises being made by a little Hungry Hamster eating the potato. I watched flabbergasted the 1 minute that the hamster spends eating the potato. Just having finished it the hamster starts to glow and after 30 second it grow to double it previously size (Congratulation my Hungry Hamster evolved to a Big Hungry Hamster) I recuperate my trail of thoughts becoming angry shouting "F.u.c.k.i.n.g hamster what are you doing eating my..." Suddenly a sense a "Click!" and I know it my first Oreo skill improved a 50% and the ring previously without even 10 years it become 90 years old.

I look surprised at big eyes of the Big Hungry Hamster and it answer saying happily "♪Eat♪Eat♪".
