Chapter 59: The True Swordsman? (Second Update)
Chapter 59: The True Swordsman? (Second Update)
The night breeze was cool and refreshing, dispelling much of the day's heat.
The rippling Spirit Stream River flowed in the distance.
Su Ping and Old Sha didn't have to wait long before, as expected, a spatial ripple slowly appeared once more.
A small paper figure emerged before them again.
In the instant the little paper figure appeared, the paper sword in its hand was already unsheathed.
The sword's edge flashed, and the wolf tobacco in front of it was sliced in half.
But this time, the little paper figure hesitated slightly.
Because the figure it had been fighting against all this time was now standing far away, with no intention of engaging it.
The paper sword was sheathed, and the little paper figure, gazing at the distant figure, shouted:
"Woohoo (Confront... Attack, the true... Swordsman, never gives up on defeating their opponent!)"
Su Ping was slightly taken aback by the serious little fellow before him.
He had never seen such an origami figure before.
Swordsman?
This word, in the beastmaster society, was both familiar and unfamiliar?
Why would a paper figure consider itself a swordsman?
Su Ping didn't understand, but he seemed to have grasped some key points.
This little fellow kept jumping out of the so-called mystic realm to defeat Old Sha?
The persistence of a so-called swordsman?
That was too far-fetched.
Su Ping estimated that even if he waited until the year of the monkey, it would be difficult for a common-rank little paper figure to defeat Old Sha.
However, without a doubt, this little paper figure seemed to hold the secrets of the mystic realm!
And now, having understood the value of the mystic realm, Su Ping naturally couldn't ignore it.
There might be other beasts within the mystic realm, but only this little creature seemed capable of freely entering and exiting it, which was enough for him to study it thoroughly.
Clearly, the current situation was how to reduce the high fighting spirit of the little paper figure before him, making it completely calm and willing to get along with Su Ping.
So that Su Ping could study the secrets it held.
Moreover, Su Ping couldn't help but be moved after seeing this peculiar little paper figure!
Although the evolution of mutant beasts was more challenging than that of regular beasts, their potential was also higher.
Su Ping didn't believe he couldn't research the evolution of his own beast.
Clearly, before this, Su Ping had gathered some knowledge about origami figures, but it seemed less applicable to this special paper swordsman.
However, the effect of mind link was demonstrated at this moment.
He looked at the battle-ready origami figure and, using the power of mind link, said:
"Is someone like you a true swordsman?"
Beast cultivation and interaction, clearly, also require adaptability.
With the little paper figure's words, Su Ping found an entry point.
And the first rule of beast cultivation was to make the beast worship and respect you, the beastmaster.
As expected, the little paper figure was slightly taken aback: "Woohoo?"
Even without mind link, Su Ping knew what it meant.
He assumed an enigmatic expression and continued:
"A true swordsman is lonely, free, and aloof, and the most important condition for this is strength! You still have a long way to go!"
"Woohoo?!"
The little paper figure looked at Su Ping with confusion, then glanced at the paper sword in its hand.
Then, the little paper figure looked at Old Sha, who was eyeing it suspiciously from the side, and the surrounding forest wolves, many of whom had stronger auras than it, and seemed to agree, nodding slightly.
Before him, this human could indeed command so many powerful wolves in battle, making him an impressive and formidable opponent.
However...
The little origami man spoke up again:
"Huh? (What do you mean by loneliness, freedom, and aloofness at high places?)"
What did it mean? Su Ping had no idea.
He wasn't a swordsman, after all.
There were plenty of swordsmen in martial arts dramas and movies, but to be honest, when these terms were combined, they could only mean one thing:
They were just showing off.
Was he supposed to answer like that?
Clearly, that wouldn't make any sense.
But Su Ping didn't need to explain!
He simply looked at the little origami man before him:
The correct version can be read on 69shu! 6=9+shu_ba.
"Little guy, do you want to understand what a true swordsman is? Then stay with me, and I'll make you a truly powerful swordsman! You should be able to see that I'm stronger than you, so I won't deceive you."
Although Su Ping still maintained a calm demeanor, his heart couldn't help but race.
If he couldn't trick this little origami man, then he would have to wait for the next time this little guy appeared and think of a way to find something that could restrain spatial abilities, seal the space, and forcibly capture him.
However, if that were the case, the difficulty of subsequently establishing a soul bond and uncovering the secrets within the mystic realm would be much greater.
Su Ping's heart raced as he watched the little origami man intently.
The little origami man seemed to be deep in thought as well.
It was easy to guess why.
On the little origami man's cheeks, the facial features drawn with oil pastels, also seemed to be in deep contemplation:
[ヘ?]
Were the facial expressions of this origami man so abstract and two-dimensional?
Especially that big, thick question mark on the side of the little origami man's forehead.
Su Ping blinked, and the next second, he saw the question mark on the little origami man's head suddenly turn red, becoming an exclamation mark!
Before Su Ping could fully appreciate this manga-style facial transformation, the spatial ripple appeared again.
The little origami man's figure disappeared once more, leaving no trace.
Looking at the empty space, with only his own wolf pack remaining, Su Ping furrowed his brows, feeling a bit helpless, and sighed.
As expected, this little origami man seemed a bit slow, but it was indeed not easy to deceive.
It seemed that he would have to resort to some extraordinary measures the next time.
However, just as this thought crossed Su Ping's mind, and he was about to leave, feeling a bit disheartened, the spatial ripple that had just disappeared suddenly reappeared.
The next second, the little origami man, who had just left and returned, appeared before him again. This time, however, the little origami man was no longer in the previous stance of drawing his sword.
Instead, he carried a paper bag, which, despite being called a bag, was more like a large ball of crumpled paper.
The little origami man put down the bag and, under the watchful eyes of Old Sha, approached Su Ping. He even performed an ancient rite like a human:
"Huh? (I want... to become a true... swordsman!)"
Looking at the little origami man before him, Su Ping smiled, and only then did he turn his True Eye towards this strange origami man who seemed to be 'paying respects.'
