Asaki and Afu in the kitchen heard the noise and rushed out to check the situation.
"Ogata-sama." Asaki asked, "What's wrong?"
"...No, it's nothing." Feeling tired, Ogata rubbed his temples, "Sorry, I disturbed you. You can continue to do your business."
Asaki and Afu looked at each other with doubts on their faces.
Although they didn't know what happened just now, Ogata had already said "nothing" now, so it was inconvenient for them to ask more questions.
After Ogata asked the two of them to continue doing their own business, the two returned to the kitchen.
After Asaki and the others left, Oubon picked up the "Muga Two Sword Style" that he had just thrown out.
Looking at the five Chinese characters on the cover, a wry smile appeared on Ogata's face.
When he learned that neither his master nor his uncle had been able to master one and a half of the moves recorded in this book, Ogata originally thought that this was such a difficult swordsmanship to practice and learn.
As a result, Ogata only now understands - it turns out that the master and his uncle failed to understand every move recorded in this book because the book was so poorly written!
Although the author of this book has very carefully drawn detailed pictures to introduce each move of this swordsmanship.
But these pictures he drew...Ogata didn't think anyone in this world could understand these pictures...
"Master..." Ogata, who still had a bitter smile on his face, sighed in a voice that only he could hear clearly, "Whether you can understand the sword skills in this set of books has nothing to do with your swordsmanship talent, but your reading comprehension ability.
It does matter..."
After feeling this way, Ogata opened the book again.
I haven’t read the last three sword skills introductions yet.
The last three sword skills are - Cicada Rain, Starfall, and Selfless Realm.
For the two sword skills Cicada Rain and Xingluo, the author of this book has drawn a lot of pictures to introduce the learning methods.
As expected, Ogata didn't understand even a single painting.
But the introduction to these two sword skills is very interesting.
These two sword skills are both continuous cutting skills.
Cicada Rain has 7 consecutive cuts, and Xingluo has 13 consecutive cuts.
According to the description in this book, Xingluo is an upgraded version of Cicada Rain. These two consecutive slashing skills have the same characteristics: wielding double swords to slash the enemy continuously, and the rhythm of the slashing is chaotic.
To put it simply - if you use this move "Cicada Rain" to attack the enemy, the rhythm of the 7 knives you slash will be chaotic.
After all, Ogata is also a swordsman.
Of course, you know that if the enemy's attack rhythm is chaotic and the enemy is not affected by your own chaotic attack rhythm, then this enemy will be a very formidable opponent.
The enemy's knife slashes at you with different rhythms.
There is a knife that is faster and a knife that is slower.
Then your own rhythm and posture will most likely be interrupted by the enemy's messy slashes.
Once your rhythm and posture are messed up, you will be in big trouble.
Although these two consecutive slashing skills are very powerful sword skills from the introduction, the author of this book very thoughtfully added a few sentences after these two sword skills to warn those who are lucky enough to read this book.
Two very important points.
Point 1: These two sword skills are very difficult to master.
The chaotic attack rhythm can certainly disrupt the enemy's rhythm.
But it can also disrupt your own rhythm.
It is quite difficult to use such a chaotic attack and ensure that oneself will not be affected by it.
Point 2: Do not use these two sword skills unless absolutely necessary.
Because the enemy will not stand here stupidly and accept your continuous slashes.
Therefore, the conditions for using these two sword skills are very strict.
The author of this book still very thoughtfully lists some conditions under which these two consecutive slashing skills can be used: when the enemy cannot move or the enemy's movement is restricted, it is best to use "Cicada Rain" and "Star Fall"
opportunity.
After briefly reading the introduction and detailed explanation of the pictures of "Cicada Rain" and "Starfall", Ogata turned over the pages of the book.
He looked at the last sword skill recorded in this book - the realm of selflessness.
This last sword skill recorded in this book does not have any detailed picture explanation.
There is only one passage that is very interesting in Ogata's eyes.
(When I was young, I once had a deadly fight with a very powerful enemy.
He is a ninja born in Shiranui Ninja Village, but with his powerful close combat ability, he doesn't look like a ninja at all.
It was a tough battle that I still remember vividly.
Be highly concentrated, don't dare to blink your eyes, and don't dare to breathe harder.
The slightest bit of slackness or carelessness will result in immediate death.
When the battle was at its most intense, I entered a strange state.
I feel like I'm floating on a calm lake.
There are no distracting thoughts in my mind.
There are clearly flowers, plants and other debris in my field of vision, but I can only perceive my knife and my enemy.
It’s not that other things within my field of vision are no longer perceptible, but that they are completely ignored by me.
At that moment, I finally understood what it meant to truly be "mindless".
All I could see was the sword in my hand and the enemy in front of me, and there was only one thought left in my mind: I must win.
Relying on this strange state, I successfully blinded the ninja's left eye with one blow and won the death battle.
What a pity - after winning this death battle, this strange state disappeared.
I can't forget this strange state of mind.
I relied on this strange state to win this death battle.
At the same time, after this death battle, I successfully integrated all the swordsmanship I knew and created a brand new two-sword style swordsmanship.
Because after entering this strange state, the mind will become extremely calm, without any distracting thoughts.
Therefore, I named this strange state "the state of no-self".
At the same time, in order to commemorate the "selfless realm" that had a huge impact on me, I named this brand new two-sword swordsmanship that I created - "selfless two-sword style".
Since the death battle with the Shiranui-ryu ninja, I have been studying this "selfless state".
Studying what to do in order to freely enter the "state of no self".
"Breath of Source" is the final product of my research.
"Breath of Source" is the shortcut to enter the "state of selflessness".
As long as you can skillfully use the "Breath of Source", you can more easily enter the "state of selflessness".
Of course - even without using the "Breath of Source", you can enter the "state of no-self".
It’s just that it will be quite difficult to enter the “selfless state” without using the “Breath of Source”.)
This is the most descriptive entry in the book.
There are no picture annotations, just paragraphs after paragraphs, telling readers how the author of this book accidentally entered the strange state of "selfless state" and telling readers the shortcut to enter the "selfless state".
What is.
Although Ogata doesn't know what it feels like to enter this "selfless state" with no distractions.
But just from this long paragraph of text description, he instinctively felt that this "selfless state" seemed to be very powerful.
After reading the detailed description of "The Realm of Selflessness", Ogata silently closed the book in his hand and let out a long sigh.
——Although I have finished reading this book, I can’t understand it at all…
——Whether you can understand the various sword skills described in this book has nothing to do with swordsmanship talent, but only with reading comprehension ability...
——It can be seen that the author of this book wrote this book very carefully. Except for the breath of the source and the realm of selflessness, all other sword skills have been illustrated in detail.
——But the painting is so ugly...I can't understand it at all...
——In this case, it is impossible for me to comprehend any sword skills of this Wuwo Sword Style...
Before Ogata could say the last syllable of the word "sword skill" in his mind, a strange and lengthy system sound suddenly sounded in Ogata's mind:
