Wharton's manor house was very quiet. Zassler was in his training room, while Barker, his brothers, and Wharton were all training in the vast training yard behind the palace. Rebecca, Leena, and Jenne were chatting with the Seventh Princess, Nina.
“Wah ”
After finishing his training, Wharton took a shower and changed into clean clothes. Satisfied and satisfied, Wharton walked over to his house. He was never as happy as he felt right now.
He was with his older brother, and he married Nina. Grandpa Hiri and Hillman also enjoyed the quiet and comfortable lives of the nobles.
"Dad. Mother If you two are still alive, you will definitely be very happy. "Wharton felt very satisfied, while at the same time, he felt very grateful to his older brother, Linley, who had brought all of this.
Linley was a pillar of the clan.
If it wasn't for Linley, would the Emperor have given Nina to him? If not for Linley, in the capital, he would only be an ordinary person among the nobles, at most considered a genius.
Wharton glanced at the distant Grandpa Hiri, who was lying on a chair, idly while drinking fruit juice.
"Grandfather Hiri, where's my older brother?" Wharton asked as he walked.
Housekeeper Hiri looked up and smiled. "Oh, Wharton. Young master Linley left early in the morning. ”
"He's not back yet?" Wharton nodded.
“You don't have to worry. Your brother is a Saint. Young master Wharton, you need to train hard as well. ”Housekeeper Hiri chuckles.
"really. "Wharton nodded.
"Grandfather Hiri, next month is Olivier's duel against the Monolithic Sword Saint. Will you watch? ”Wharton laughs.
"of course. How could I miss a duel between two Saints? ”Housekeeper Hiri shines. “Saint Monolithic Sword is an expert among the Saints. This duel will be fun. ”
Wharton's eyes were also filled with excitement.
“One day, I'll be like my older brother, Olivier, and Haydson. "Wharton secretly decided.
At that moment, footsteps sounded.
Linley appeared outside the courtyard. Looking at his brother, Wharton felt a warm feeling in his heart. He hurriedly went to greet her. “Big brother, how much longer to return? Barker and I have completed our training. We'll be having dinner soon. ”
“I went to see some people. "Linley laughs.
Linley did not tell his younger brother about his trip to War God Mountain. As Linley saw it, it was best not to tell his younger brother about certain affairs of the Yulan continent. When his younger brother reached Saint level, there would be plenty of time to tell him.
At the back of the courtyard was Linley's residence within the real manor. The training grounds of the estate were huge, but Wharton, Barker, and his brothers all needed a lot of space as well. As such, Linley usually trained by himself in his own home.
"Whoosh's. "Whoosh's. “Wind blows, spreading the fallen leaves on the floor, making them dance in the air. Linley's hair gently fluttered about with the wind as well.
Linley held an adamantine heavy sword, with the tip of the sword touching the ground.
“I've managed to produce 128 pulses from the vibration attack of the Earth's Profound Truth. "For the five years he spent in Cloudpeaks Village, Linley had already mastered the Hundred Layered Waves during his fourth year.
Linley had increased quite quickly when he had advanced from three waves to ten, then from ten to a hundred.
But after a hundred waves had been reached, Linley's repair rate had already begun to decline. Although all the time had passed, Linley had only reached 128 waves.
With each breakthrough, Linley had only managed to increase the number of waves by one or two.
"I wonder what the absolute limit is for the number of waves?" Linley sat down into a meditative position.
"Thruuum. "" Thruuumi. ”
The sound of the world's pulse rang out in Linley's consciousness. That unique rhythm had a magic rhythm, capable of causing one to be unconsciously inserted in it.
Linley's muscles would sometimes expand or contract as they continued to vibrate, and wind appeared out of nowhere around Linley. While meditating, Linley had previously noticed that his muscles would absorb the earth elemental essence at a faster speed as they vibrated with the rhythm of the earth pulses, allowing his body to gain strength faster.
"Aah!"
Linley suddenly stood up, his eyes shining with a terrifying light.
“Pulse pulsating world pulse. The throbbing throb in the world .. "Linley suddenly recalled that the Monolithic Sword Saint technique, Haydson, had been used to block himself and Olivier.
Haydson's body was suddenly surrounded by a layered wave of earth-colored elemental particles that had struck him in waves, forcing him to retreat.
“At that time, I felt that Haydson's defense seemed to have a very familiar quality about it. But at the time, I didn't understand it, and I didn't have time to analyse it. But now…"
Linley had a certain feeling, similar to seeing the bright moon that had been hidden behind the misty veil gradually growing clearer in his mind.
“The pulsating pulse of the world is not just a wave of vibration. It can also become invisible, and it can also be transmitted through battle-qi. ”As if there was an opaque film covering this realization. After breaking through the film, Linley now began to understand.
“Using pulse for defense, haha. earth style magic has forbidden level spell 'Pulsating Guard'. It seems that they are based on the same principle. However, my 'Pulseguard Defense' will only be used to protect myself. ”
This blue-black battle qi Linley began to fill the area around him.
“No, that's not how it works. ”
Linley closed his eyes, letting his heart merge with the pulsating pulse of the world, while also tuning his Dragonblood battle-qi to the same tempo. He already understood the general principles, but actually applying them was no easy task.
Linley was standing there in the middle of the courtyard as waves of azurish-black-qi battles engulfed the surrounding area.
The principle is actually quite simple. For example, a piece of paper can be easily shredded, but if the paper is folded six times into braids, these paper braids may be able to sustain a strength of up to a hundred pounds.
The same material, once folded and braided, can support much more strength.
Battle-qi is the same when used for defense.
The same battle qi, when used in different ways, can defend against ten times or even a hundred times the incoming force. “The Pulse of the Pulsing World”, in turn, is a very unique technique.
The pulsating Pulse of the World was only one of the paths within the Laws of the Earth.
Linley had already reached a rather high level of comprehension with regards to the World Pulse. All he had to do now was change that understanding and use the same principle to create a Pulseguard Defense for himself. Since he already understood the principles, once he started to apply them, he would advance quite quickly.
“Big brother, time to eat. "Wharton walked over, with Barker and his brothers behind him. Five of them had just finished training and then had a shower.
But when they pushed the door open, they found …
"Brother boy?"
"King?"
Wharton, Barker, and the others all looked at each other. Although training is important, rest is also.
"Don't bother the boss. Bebe, rest in the corner of the courtyard, ordering.
“It's dinner time. Big brother should rest. "As he spoke, Wharton headed towards Linley. Bebe and Haeru glanced at each other, but did not block it.
Linley had already instructed Bebe and Haeru not to approach him, as they would be injured by the wave.
“Time to let this little punk learn. "Bebe quietly said to himself.
Wharton was careful. The battle-qi around Linley was quite dense, but he was still quite far away from Linley. The battle-qi here was still a bit rare. How could Wharton really worry about a small amount of battle-qi?
But as soon as he reached the edge of the black-azur battle-qi, Wharton suddenly felt a surge of energy striking him.
"Bang!"
Wharton was sent flying away. Wharton felt the sensation of being hit dozens of times in an instant, and each time he felt as if he was hit by a meteor.
"Whartons. "Gates was the first to go forward and capture Wharton.
"Wharton, are you okay?" Ask Gates.
"I'm fine . "Wharton put his hand on his chest, a taste of blood in his mouth. He looked at Linley in disbelief. “Big bro let go of his battle-qi, but I only touched the outer boundary. How could his strength be so strong? ”
Wharton didn't believe it. The density of battle-qi closer to Linley was much higher, and it would most likely be much more dangerous as well.
"Wharton, His Majesty has still not stopped his training regardless of what just happened. Obviously, he has to be at a tipping point in his training. It's better if we don't bother him. "Barker said seriously.
Wharton nodded as well. "I will order the guards to prevent anyone from bothering him. ”
"Not needed . Haeru and I will take care of him. "Bebe said with disdain. “You can go now. If the Boss doesn't finish his training, don't bother him. ”
Wharton, Barker, and the others glanced at each other, then left.
At the same time, Wharton and Barker instructed everyone not to interfere with Linley's training. That night, at dinner, Jenne, Nina, and the others were all astonished at how difficult Linley was to practice.
“She trained so hard that she didn't even want to have dinner. Big Lunk, your brother really worked hard. "Nina mutters.
But suddenly, the second day, Linley continued to train like this. The third day, the same .. and just like that, day after day passed.
In the blink of an eye, more than ten days passed. May has arrived.
“In a few more days, it's time for a duel between Olivier and Haydson. My big brother wouldn't be so caught up in his training that he would miss it, would he? ”Wharton said to Barker and his brothers.
Wharton, Barker, and his brothers all stood at the doorway to the courtyard.
Every day, after they finished their training, they would visit Linley. Linley had not changed at all, and he was still surrounded by azurish-black-qi battles. Only, compared to ten days ago, that azurish-black-qi battle had actually shrunk a little in the area.
“I want to know how sister training is progressing. "Wharton couldn't understand what he was seeing.
Barker and his brothers shook their heads as well. In terms of level of comprehension, Barker and his brothers were not much better than Wharton, and were unable to comprehend many things about the Element Laws.
“Wah "Breath that exhales.
The Wharton and Barker brothers, who had just turned around and were preparing to leave, all turned around and looked back. Indeed, the blue-black battle qi had returned to Linley's body, and Linley was currently smiling while stretching.
"Wharton, you're here too. "Linley laughs.
"Big brother, you've finally finished your training. "Said Wharton happily.
"Oh, right. Wharton, how much time have I spent in training? "Linley laughs.
“Nearly fifteen days! Today is May 1. In three days, it will be May 4. That night, Olivier and Haydson were about to duel. "Wharton said quickly.
"Fifteen days?"
Linley was a little surprised. In fact, he was actually concentrating on sensing the 'World Pulse' and constantly modifying and improving his Pulseguard Defense techniques. He did not notice the time passing at all.
Unexpectedly, after closing his eyes, fifteen days had passed.
“Although I already have a high understanding of 'World Pulse' and also understand the general principles behind Pulseguard, the actual development of this technique takes fifteen days. ”
But Linley was actually quite satisfied.
In the past, 'war-qi' armor - it was created through the application of battle-qi in a very simple and crude manner. 'The 'Pulseguard Defense' was currently using the same amount of battle-qi, but several times stronger.
“But it looks like my defense is different from Haydson's. ”
As he developed his technique, Linley thought their technique was the same. But after developing it, Linley realized .. that Haydson's defense was actually just a simple way to utilize the 'World Pulse'. Haydson's understanding of the Pulse Pulsed World was definitely not as deep as Linley's own level of understanding.
However, Haydon's defense was still very strong.
This was because the 'Throbbing Pulse of the World' was only the part that supported Haydson's defense. His true power most likely lies in a mystery different from Earth Laws.
“I want to know how my pure 'Pulseguard Defense' technique matches Haydson's defense. "Linley secretly wondered to herself.
“Big brother, what do you think? Let's have dinner. "Wharton.
"Good . ”
Linley turned to look at Bebe and Haeru. "Bebe, Haeru, let's go. "Linley could guess that Bebe and Haeru had not left his side for these past fifteen days.
“And here I think that the Boss has forgotten us. "Bebe jumped onto Linley's shoulder, then pursed his lips. “But Boss, I must say, even though we haven't left the page once in the last ten days, those maids still deliver food to us every day. Unfortunately, but tonight, no one will give you food. I, Bebe, have to personally forage for food. ”
Linley, Wharton, and Barker and his brothers all could not help but laugh.
