Chapter 82 Dripping Sword

"After five years of hard training, I finally condensed the third drop of rootless heavy water before heading to the Yuling Sect war zone..."

"At present, the liquid mana in my body has reached 1,000 drops. At my current training speed, I can break through the bottleneck of the middle stage of foundation building with another five or six years of hard work..."

Su Ming's consciousness swept over the three drops of rootless heavy water, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

The pleasure of increasing cultivation is indeed fascinating, especially the pleasure of comprehending knowledge and exploring the true self, combined with the feeling of gradually growing mana in the body, which is a hundred times better than the instinctive desire of the flesh, and it makes Su Ming sink into it and unable to extricate himself.

If it weren't for the warning from the identity token, he really wanted to break through the middle stage of foundation building in one breath and then come out.

"Although I can't break through the middle stage of foundation building and rush to the Yuling Sect war zone, after condensing three drops of rootless heavy water, I can also start practicing the 'Dripping Water Sword' and the 'Heavy Water Protective Seal'..."

Su Ming thought of this, and his hands formed seals according to the records of the exercises. With a move of his consciousness, he controlled the three drops of rootless heavy water above the Mana Lake.

With the control of his consciousness, the three drops of rootless heavy water in his body began to blend and eventually turned into a black bead as big as a dragon eye.

Rootless heavy water bead!

A special form of mana that can only be condensed by three drops of rootless heavy water.

Under the influence of the rootless heavy water bead, the azure mana in Su Ming's body became deeper and deeper, and finally turned into black and blue.

Seeing this, Su Ming's eyes flashed with blue light, and he opened the Water Virtue Formation. The mana in his body changed again and finally turned into ink.

In this state, Su Ming's aura was like a deep sea, giving people a feeling of being as vast and unfathomable as the sea.

In his spiritual sense, the weight of the liquid mana in the mana lake at this time was as high as 500 kilograms.

If the black mana and Su Ming were not of the same origin, which greatly reduced the pressure it brought, with his second level of heavy water quenching technique, the meridians in his body would probably be directly crushed.

Feeling the pressure from the meridians during the flow of the black mana, Su Ming's face was calm, and he formed a seal with one hand in front of his chest.

Suddenly, a black cloud condensed by mana appeared in the air in the training room.

Raising his hand and waving it down, the black tortoise water-covering banner flew out of the storage bag and landed under the black cloud, supporting a light blue protective shield.

"Quick!"

Su Ming changed the magic formula in his hand and raised his finger slightly.

The black cloud suddenly changed, turning into a large piece of black fog that filled the vicinity of the black tortoise water-covering banner, and began to rotate rapidly around the light blue protective shield, forming a black vortex.

A powerful suction force appeared out of thin air, and the air in the entire training room was almost drained by the black vortex in the air. Even if a cultivator in the middle stage of the foundation building period was trapped by the black vortex, he would not be able to break free for a while.

"Iron pestle becomes a needle, water drops wear away a stone!"

"First sword..."

"Fall!"

As Su Ming pressed his finger down, a drop of water as black as ink emerged in the black vortex, turning into a small black sword, dripping from top to bottom on the light blue protective shield.

Peng!

A muffled sound echoed, and a dent appeared on the protective shield formed by the black tortoise covering water banner.

Su Ming, who was connected to the black tortoise covering water banner's consciousness, clearly sensed the terrifying weight and impact of the black water droplets.

In terms of power alone, the power of the first sword of the dripping sword is roughly equivalent to the full-strength attack of a cultivator in the early stage of the foundation building period.

With this kind of power, it is still far from enough to break the defense of the black tortoise covering water banner.

But as a protective spell of the top method, the dripping sword is naturally not that simple.

Unlike ordinary spells, the dripping sword did not disappear after falling, but was attached to the protective shield like a thorn in the flesh, continuously corroding the protective shield.

Su Ming could easily sense that under the effect of the dripping sword, the speed of his mana consumption to maintain the Black Turtle Water Banner increased by 20%.

Moreover, the black water spirit power on the protective shield was extremely condensed, and it was extremely difficult to remove it without special methods, and a large amount of mana must be consumed to wear it out.

This was not over yet, Su Ming's finger pressed down again.

Another drop of black water condensed into a sword in the black vortex and fell towards the protective shield.

At this time, the black small sword on the protective shield was like a magnet, attracting the second sword of the dripping sword to fall, and the speed and impact force rose by 20%.

Bang!

The two drops of black water merged into one, and the pits on the protective shield became more and more obvious. The mana consumed by Su Ming to maintain the Black Turtle Water Banner rose by four layers.

The power of this attack reached the level of a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building. The difficulty of directly breaking the dripping sword doubled instantly.

Su Ming's eyes were calm, and his fingers pressed down again. Another drop of black water emerged. Under the traction of the first two swords, the speed and power increased again.

This sword, the peak of the middle stage of foundation building!

The defensive light shield of the black tortoise covering water banner began to twist and become unstable, and at the same time began to consume Su Ming's mana rapidly.

Now slowing down the maintenance of mana, the dripping sword, which had been superimposed three times, could penetrate the protective shield of the black tortoise covering water banner in the blink of an eye.

Seeing this, Su Ming's hand gesture changed, and the rootless heavy water beads in his body were divided into three again, and the black vortex in the air disappeared.

After the spell was lifted, the black water droplets dissipated in the air and turned into a large piece of pure water spirit power.

"It is worthy of being a protective technique recorded in the top-level method. In terms of mystery, it is not inferior to the secret method at all..."

Su Ming showed a satisfied smile and raised his hand to put the black tortoise covering water banner back into the storage bag.

As the only attacking method recorded in "Heavy Water Mysterious Art", the effect of the dripping sword is just as its name suggests.

An iron pestle can be turned into a needle, and dripping water can wear away a stone!

Once hit by the first sword, it will be difficult to dodge the next attack under the restriction of the black vortex, and each subsequent attack will add power, and it will be more and more difficult to get rid of the dripping sword.

This spell is specifically used to defeat those monks with strong defensive capabilities.

As long as you don't dodge the first sword, or don't break the dripping sword in the first time, you will suffer later.

Even if it interferes with Su Ming's continued casting, the original dripping sword will not dissipate, but will entangle the monk like a thorn in the bone, constantly wearing away the opponent's mana.

Even if the protective shield is removed, the dripping sword will continue to entangle the enemy under the control of Su Ming's consciousness, which can be said to have brought the continuous characteristics of the water system to the extreme.

Theoretically, the dripping sword can be infinitely stacked, but every time a sword is condensed, Su Ming will consume more mana.

With his current mana foundation, he can stack up to four swords.

And the power of the fourth sword can reach the late stage of foundation building!

Although it seems not as powerful as "True Soul Flame" and "Dragon Catcher", the characteristic of "Bone Sucking" can definitely make the enemy feel like dying.

Being entangled by the dripping sword stacked four times, the process of fighting is equivalent to being attacked by a late foundation cultivator all the time, and the mana consumption is almost doubled.

Although Su Ming's mana is also consumed by more than half after the fourth sword is stacked, compared with the pressure that the opponent needs to bear, the mana consumption of the dripping sword is still within the acceptable range.
