Surviving in a Collapsed World, Is Something Wrong?

Chapter 152 Problems Will Find a Way to Solve Themselves

"Your sword is too soft, Kiana!"

"cough......"

In the simulation training room, Jiang Ming trained Kiana as usual. Since their B-level Valkyrie assessment would be in two days, the training this time was much more rigorous than usual.

There was even a suggestion that if you didn’t stick with it, the fried chicken for dinner would be reduced by half. Upon hearing this, Kiana worked much harder than before.

"Drink--!!!"

Kiana kept waving the Sunfire Greatsword that Jiang Ming gave her last time. The heavy two-handed greatsword was as light as a feather in her hand.

But precisely because of this, her attacks lack any skill at all. To put it bluntly, she is just relying on her brute force, making it easy for people to guess her next move.

"That's enough, let's stop here."

Jiang Ming once again knocked the big sword out of Kiana's hand and placed the ice sword he had condensed against her snow-white neck.

Kiana showed a very unwilling expression on her face. After making a "Mmm..." sound, she put down the Sunfire Greatsword, then sat down on the ground, complaining non-stop.

"Ahhh - I'm so tired! Practicing this with Jiang Ming is just asking for trouble. The same goes for the Sword Heart Sutra. How can I possibly memorize 462 syllables..."

"The Sword Heart Technique can be considered a kind of psychological suggestion. As long as you listen to it, you can improve your sword heart. I remember I have recorded it for you. Didn't you listen to it tonight?"

"Uh...hehe..."

Looking at Jiang Ming's suspicious eyes, Kiana couldn't help but laugh awkwardly. Jiang Ming couldn't help but sigh when he saw her like this.

"So during this period of time, I have only taught you sword forms. But until now, you haven't even learned a single sword form. In terms of actual combat, you are just hitting randomly."

"We can barely handle some of the death warriors and ordinary Honkai beasts, but we will have more enemies in the future."

"Forehead......"

Although Kiana felt guilty after hearing this, she still answered bravely.

"But Jiang Ming, didn't you also mention the fourth essence of Taixu Sword Qi: Soul Essence? After comprehending Soul Essence, you can use all kinds of weapons in the world like swords. You don't have to stick to the sword shape when you attack. Only when you reach this level can you be called a master of swordsmanship?"

"Do you have that kind of understanding......?"

"Then...Jiang Ming, have you achieved it?"

Ignoring Jiang Ming's question, Kiana asked another question, and this question was very meaningful.

If Jiang Ming answers that he has achieved it, Kiana can say that it is of course easy for someone of your level to achieve it, but it will definitely take me more time.

And if Jiang Ming answered that he had not achieved it, that would be even better. After all, even he had not achieved it, so how could I possibly achieve it?

But Jiang Ming didn't fall for this stupid cat.

"Even if others have reached or even a higher level, they are still no match for me. I can still kill them with one sword."

"Uh-huh!!"

Kiana pouted in dissatisfaction because Jiang Ming didn't fall into her trap, and Jiang Ming unceremoniously pinched Kiana's mouth with his hands to let the air out of her mouth.

But then he said with self-awareness.

"Forget it. I had expected you to be like this. Now, I don't ask you to learn sword form, sword intent or sword soul. I will be satisfied as long as you listen to the Sword Heart Sutra from time to time."

"Just find your own sword path. You need to know who your sword should strike at and who you should protect."

"Really!"

Upon hearing this, Kiana immediately clenched her hands excitedly, leaned forward slightly and looked at Jiang Ming, but she then seemed to feel something was wrong and asked in confusion.

"By the way, Jiang Ming, you just mentioned the Four Elements. I remember there is also the most difficult Divine Elements. I don't think I can..."

"Yes, you must learn this no matter what."

"Ah..."

Faced with Jiang Ming's ruthless answer, Kiana instantly fell to the ground, forming an irregular "big" character.

"How can I possibly learn it......"

In response, Jiang Ming just smiled faintly, used the wind element to lift Kiana up and said.

"Why not? You have to have confidence in yourself."

“You yourself said this was the most difficult part…”

"The most difficult part is targeting ordinary people. Our Kiana's talent is the best in the world. Even a mere Sword God can reach her goal."

"Forget it, you're always like this. It's okay to praise other people, but it doesn't work on me."

Kiana spread her hands with a look of disgust.

"Sword God, why didn't you say I could become the Herrscher of the End you told me about before?"

"Haha, don't you want to be one?"

Jiang Ming showed a doting yet strange smile on his face, and Kiana curled her lips and answered indifferently.

"Can I solve all problems by becoming the Herrscher of the End?"

Jiang Ming narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and said in a meaningful tone.

"Haha, that's not the case. If you really become the Herrscher of the End..."

"Then it's not up to you to solve the problem, but the problem will find a way to solve itself."

"Haha, that's really amazing~."

Kiana laughed weakly twice and walked out of the simulated training room.

"Let's go back and eat."

a long time......

"Oh, I see."

Jiang Ming replied softly and followed.

But... for Jiang Ming, this answer means that he may have to wait many years before he can see them again...

......

At the same time——

In an unknown place somewhere far away, in a dim passage, the gray snake moved forward without hindrance. He did not light a lamp nor memorize the topographic map of this place.

But every time a fork in the road appeared, the idea of ​​where to go would suddenly arise in his mind, as if he was walking on a road he had already walked thousands of times.

This individual comes here almost every day, and the reason he does this is simply to see a person, a person who almost never shows up and is in seclusion every moment. If he wants to see him, there is almost no other way except to come here every day.

A lightless corridor winds out from a corner of the sacrificial site, and the end of the darkness connects to the beginning of the world.

The gray snake didn't know how long he had been walking. The corridor seemed to extend infinitely, extending to another world.

Finally, a voice was heard. It was not known whether it was intentional by its owner or not. The voice did not have any emotion, but the gray snake seemed to be used to it.

"What's the matter?"

"He won't come."

"It doesn't matter. Now is not the time for him to come. Go back."

"As ordered."
