Nobilis of War

Chapter 1465 Guidance (Part One)

Darren despised Todd from the bottom of his heart. 'You shirked your status as a deputy god, and

cheated. Have you no shame?'

Fortunately, he hadn't used his most powerful move yet. It was well within his means to have the ability

to fight.

Once he used the sixth move of the supreme sword skill, black god's power and penetrating power

would morph together with his sword intent. Moreover, Darren had secretly prepared the six Spiritual

Flying Swords.

If this proved to be moot, he planned to simply launch a clever sneak attack on Todd. Anyhow, Todd

was the one who cheated first.

Todd stood wielding his sword tightly in both his hands. He attached a powerful intent to his sword and

began to slash wildly at Darren.

"Look at you, slashing away as if you were chopping wood with those hands. The only difference this

time is that you're using both hands," said Darren in a bored tone. Todd had spent his whole life honing

this attack. It should've been amazing, but Darren could only see it as choppy and lacking any glimmer.

Darren shook his head as he decided to focus on the battle.

As soon as he launched his attack, his sword, condensed by sword intent, flew out and collided with

Todd's in mere seconds.

The shrill explosion made Darren's ears bleed as he winced back. His body was thrown away by the Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

impact, and a sharp pain pierced at his internal organs.

Bang!

Darren slammed against the wall of the secret room. His bones broke with a nasty crunch.

"Damn it! I can't believe I lost to that." Darren couldn't help but feel disappointed that he couldn't defeat

Todd in the end.

After a while, the sword intents completely dissipated.

"Darren, how could you be so pathetic?"

Darren turned to the speaker and saw that Todd had been thrown to the wall just like him. Although he

was not injured, he looked like he was in a more embarrassing situation than Darren.

Seeing this, Darren smirked. It seemed that his fighting power was on a par with Todd's after all. If Todd

didn't possess the physical strength of a deputy god, he would have been in a more miserable state

than him.

This certainly raised Darren's spirits. He hadn't used the Spiritual Flying Swords yet, after all!

"You were superb, sir. I was defeated," said Darren as he healed his injuries.

"Bullshit!" Todd said sullenly. He knew that should they have had the same physical strength, he

would've lost the battle.

"You didn't use that move in our first battle." Todd went and began to act shamelessly once again.

Darren could only feel frustration in return. 'Why can't I use it? I have more than one move! Must I

explain all my moves to you just so you can defeat me?'

"Ahem, sir, why did I feel that you seemed to have used the move at the top level of the Celestial God

Realm just now?" Darren didn't want to argue with him, so he exposed his tricks on the spot.

Todd blushed furiously in response. He was seen through.

"Uh... Maybe that was just your imagination. Let's stop talking about it." Todd quickly covered it up and

restored his original appearance with his god's power.

"I have to admit that you are definitely a genius, not inferior to Finley in any way at all. As a warrior at

the middle-level of the Celestial God Realm, you actually released the fighting power at the low-level of

the Superior God Realm. I believe by the time you reach the Superior God Realm, your ability will be

unimaginable," explained Todd, with a very calm and calculated look on his face.

He was in awe. He had never expected that Darren could unleash such immense power. His

astonishment was understandable. In the entire Primitive Wilderness, there had never been a warrior

like Darren, a middle-level Celestial God Realm warrior, who possessed the fighting power of a low-

level Superior God Realm warrior.

The most outstanding warriors throughout the history of the Primitive Wilderness had been those who

were at the top level of the Celestial God Realm and yet could fight against the ordinary warriors at the

Superior God Realm. Even Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng had only obtained the ability by sheer

luck to compete with the top-level deputy gods after they had reached the top level of the Superior God

Realm.

"I'm flattered, sir. Before reaching the peak of the martial arts, any talent is like smoke, and can

disappear if not honed," said Darren in a serious tone.

He spoke truthfully and from the bottom of his heart. No matter how gifted one was, before they

became the strongest warrior in the world, they were always in danger of being vanquished and losing

their life. A fallen talent was no longer a talent.

Nodding slightly in agreement, Todd said, "You don't have to think about it too much. Just focus on

cultivation and there will be a chance for you to reach the top someday. By the way, I saw your sword

move just now. It's definitely fantastic, but there were a few things to improve on."

Todd was back on the topic.

"Oh? Please give me some advice, sir." Darren cupped his hands in respect. He had always thought

that his sword skill was already perfected.

"It's very simple. The power of your sword move is not being used to its fullest potential," explained

Todd.

"I understand. I'm still not strong enough," said Darren.

He was only at the middle-level of the Celestial God Realm, so the power of the sword formula he

could release was certainly limited. If he were at the top level of the Celestial God Realm, then it would

have been another story.

Actually, the cultivation method he was using was originally owned by the supreme gods. Only they

could unleash the most destructive power of the sword skill. Darren had only mastered a fraction of it

by this point.

"No, I'm not talking about your cultivation base. Although you are only at the Celestial God Realm now,

your strike shouldn't have been so weak."

"Oh? Please enlighten me."

Todd nodded and continued, "Your cultivation method must be an incomplete one, and this has greatly

affected its power. The key point is that I have fought with you twice, and you have only used two

sword moves. The power of the first one is much weaker than the second one. Do you find that

normal?"

Darren furrowed his brows in confusion and said, "It's normal. The first time, I used the fifth move of the

sword skill; while the second time, I used the sixth move. The power differs, of course."

"Hahaha..."

Hearing this, Todd couldn't help but give out a hearty laugh. This was the root of the problem.

"In your opinion, the last move of the sword skill is always the most powerful, right? Let me tell you, this

is the misunderstanding of most swordsmen. According to your thought, what's the point of the first five

moves of this cultivation method? Wouldn't it have been enough to directly create the sixth move? Let's

say there were one hundred moves. Why did the creator need to create the first ninety-nine moves

instead of directly creating the 100th one?"

Darren felt that Todd was on to something, but he hadn't quite wrapped his head around it yet.

He only felt that what Todd said was very reasonable. Every time he comprehended a swordsmanship,

he would feel that any previous moves were useless.

For example, when he had just comprehended the second move, he would default to using the second

move when fighting against his enemies. He would completely disregard the move that preceded it.

Now the question was, why did the creator create the first move at all? Just to pave the way for

comprehending the second move? This reason was too far-fetched. A real master would abandon all

useless moves and comprehend the essence of the move instead.

Seeing the excitement and confusion in Darren's eyes, Todd said, "Haven't you figured it out yet? You

need to connect your moves. Each move ultimately makes the next one more powerful.

Eventually, the power of this superimposition will be stronger than the power of your six moves

combined. It will be beyond your imagination."

Connection!

It turned out that this was the key. Darren's eyes grew as he immediately understood.

"Thank you for your advice, sir!" Darren had a eureka moment. He was very excited at the thought that

his fighting power could be further improved.

His surprise only made Todd roll his eyes with a deep sigh.

"You're quite an impulsive person, huh. Do you really understand what I just said? If it was really as

easy as you think, then everyone would be a master of swordsmanship."

"Ahem." Embarrassed, Darren tried to stop his stutter and continued, "Sir, trust me, I really

understand."

"Well then, show me what you've got and attack me."

Todd cracked his knuckles with a serious face and raised an eyebrow at Darren, daring him to make a

move.
