"But Nami, you're cuter in person than in the profile. How can you stand up like that?"

"Cough cough cough."

"I'm fine, no, I'm okay."

Nami coughed, taking deep breaths of fresh air, and took Chen Xuan's outstretched hand, which she then pulled up.

"You wretched brat, how dare you ignore me."

Seeing that Chen Xuan was ignoring him, Ah Long angrily clenched his fist and swung it at Chen Xuan.

"Master Chen Xuan, be careful."

As soon as Ah Long attacked, Nami tried to warn him, but Chen Xuan's response was clearly faster.

A flash of light appeared, and Ah Long's fist, along with his entire wrist, was smoothly severed.

"what!!!!!"

His entire hand and wrist were severed, and Ah Long screamed in pain on the spot.

"It is very impolite to interrupt someone's conversation."

Holding her Nichirin Blade, Chen Xuan shielded Nami behind her and coldly looked at Arlong, speaking calmly.

"You little brat, I'll kill you."

Perhaps because he was a shark-fish man, Ah Long, who was injured and smelled blood, became even more ferocious instead of afraid, and opened his blood-red mouth to bite Chen Xuan.

"Flame Breathing Ninth Form: Purgatory"

Chen Xuan glanced at A Long rushing towards her, holding a Nichirin Blade surrounded by flames that continuously emitted booming sounds. Then, like a meteor, she charged towards A Long, the powerful force carrying A Long dozens of meters before finally stopping.

"Tsk, this breathing technique is somewhat interesting, but its power and speed are still too low."

Chen Xuan clicked her tongue in amazement as she looked at A Long, who was still alive after taking one of her Flame Breathing techniques.

"Brother Ah Long, you damn human brat, I'll kill you."

Seeing that Ah Long was on the verge of death, Ah Long's fishman minions rushed over, trying to overwhelm Chen Xuan with their numbers.

"As expected, the problem lies in the breathing guidance and usage. If I'm not mistaken, this guidance method should be what is known as the original Sun Breathing."

Chen Xuan murmured softly, showing no emotion whatsoever when she saw Ah Long's underlings rushing towards her.

"Master Chen Xuan, I will fight alongside you."

Having recovered, Nami stood in front of Chen Xuan, holding a long sword, seemingly worried that Chen Xuan wouldn't be able to handle so many fishmen.

"You despicable traitor, and you brat, die!"

"I'm going to kill you all to avenge Brother Ah Long."

Ah Long's fishman henchmen charged towards Chen Xuan and Nami, brandishing their weapons and howling.

"Who's afraid of you? Come on!"

Nami swallowed hard, then drew her sword to attack, but before she could make a move, she saw Chen Xuan wielding a Nichirin Blade covered in flames, moving like a fire dragon, weaving through the fish-men who were attacking them at an incredible speed, with one falling down for every person she passed.

"Strange monster."

"Run! We are no match for him!"

"Brother Long, I'll avenge you later."

After being mowed down by Chen Xuan, A Long's merman underlings lost their initial enthusiasm and fled.

The three people in the chat group were also taken aback by Chen Xuan's actions.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: Hey, was that breathing technique Master Chen Xuan just used the legendary, supposedly the first breathing technique, the Sun Breathing?]

Kanroji Mitsuri stared wide-eyed at Chen Xuan, who was wielding a Nichirin Blade covered in flames and weaving through the fish-men. Her mouth gaped open in disbelief.

But before she could even catch her breath, she saw Chen Xuan move again.

"This time the power has been increased slightly, but it is still too weak. Too much time and conversion rate are wasted. Instead of attaching energy to the blade like this, it would be better to change it to this."

As Chen Xuan spoke, she raised the Nichirin Blade in her hand, whose blade had become scorching hot as if it were about to melt, and slashed it from a distance at the fish-men who had managed to dodge her grass cutting.

BOOM

A massive explosion, accompanied by scorching heat, spread outwards, destroying the fleeing merfolk and the entire Arlong Park. The brick and tile buildings were reduced to piles of charcoal, and the swimming pool in Arlong Park, which was more than ten meters deep and as large as a football field, was completely evaporated into water vapor.

"That looks much better. Hmm, let's call this move Corona."

Chen Xuan looked at the Alon Park, which had been burned to ashes and turned into charred ruins, and nodded slightly.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: Eh, what kind of swordsmanship is that? Was magic used? How could it destroy such a large area in one strike?]

Kanroji Mitsuri screamed in shock again as she looked at the burned-down Aryu Park.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: @Master Chen Xuan, what kind of swordsmanship are you using? Is it the legendary Sun Breathing? How can it be so powerful?]

Kanroji Mitsuri urgently sent a message to Chen Xuan asking her questions.

[Chen Xuan: Theoretically speaking, the one I used to cut grass is the Sun Breathing technique you mentioned. As for the move I just used, I just modified it slightly because I thought it was too weak.]

Chen Xuan thought for a moment and replied in the group.

[Ganluji Mili:? ? ? ? 】

[Kinomoto Sakura: ? ? ? ? ]

[Rin Tohsaka: ? ? ? ? ? ]

[Nami: ? ? ? ? ]

Hearing Chen Xuan's words, the others in the group were also dumbfounded. What did she mean by saying that the power was too weak and it was temporarily modified? You mean that the effect of this bomb being the same as a high-explosive bomb was temporarily modified?

Chapter Ten: What? This thing isn't something your body will automatically learn once your brain understands it?

[Chen Xuan: Oh, that move was just a temporary change, its power might not have been at its peak yet. Let me think about it some more, and I should be able to increase it further.]

Seeing the group members' collective question marks, Chen Xuan once again made a surprising statement.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: Huh? The power can be increased again?]

Kanroji Mitsuri looked completely bewildered, feeling that her worldview had been greatly shaken.

As the Love Pillar of the Demon Slayer Corps, she knows the limits of Breathing Techniques. Even if that move was the limit, the destructive power of combining all the Breathing Techniques together is incomparable. Mitsuri Kanroji even thought that if she mastered this move, she could even kill the Demon King Muzan Kibutsuji. But Chen Xuan told her that the power could be increased even further.

These words evoked incredibly complex emotions in Kanroji Mitsuri at that moment; a thousand words could only be summed up in one sentence.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: Master Chen Xuan, terrifying indeed.]

[Kinomoto Sakura: Master Chen Xuan, terrifying indeed.]

[Rin Tohsaka: Master Chen Xuan, terrifying indeed.]

Nami: Master Chen Xuan, terrifying indeed.

The other three members in the group also turned into repeaters.

[Kanroji Mitsuri: However, Master Chen Xuan must have practiced the Flame Breathing technique I uploaded quite a bit, otherwise he wouldn't have such proficiency.]

As Kanroji Mitsuri spoke, she imagined a scene in her mind: Chen Xuan holding a Nichirin Blade and constantly practicing Flame Breathing.

After all, the breathing technique is different from the magic extraction method uploaded by Sakura Moe. The latter only requires following the information and meditating to cultivate, without any extra steps. However, although the former is called a breathing technique, it must be combined with swordsmanship to unleash its power.

Swordsmanship requires a lot of time to train one's body and skills to reach a high level; there is basically no possibility of quick mastery. Chen Xuan's use of Flame Breathing, which is even better than that of her, the former Flame Pillar's adopted son, clearly requires a long period of training. In addition, given that the time flow in the worlds where the members of the chat group are located is different, Kanroji Mitsuri guessed that Chen Xuan must have practiced Flame Breathing offline for a long time.

[Chen Xuan: Oh, intensive practice? No, I bought this thing and it's just been sitting there untouched. This is the first time I've used it.]

Chen Xuan thought for a moment and replied.

[Ganluji Mili:? ? ? ? 】

[Kanroji Mitsuri: Master Chen Xuan, are you saying this is the first time you've used Flame Breathing today?]

Mitsuri Kanroji originally thought that Chen Xuan's modification of the breathing technique in front of her, not only reversing the so-called original breathing technique, Sun Breathing, but also further improving and developing a sword technique that was even more powerful than Sun Breathing, was already extremely terrifying.

Now Chen Xuan tells her that this is the first time he has used the Flame Breathing technique since he bought it and uploaded it. At this moment, Kanroji Mitsuri just wants to say, "Dude, did you unlock it? Otherwise, how come you are more skilled than her, the former Flame Pillar's adopted son, on your first use of the Flame Breathing technique?"

[Chen Xuan: It's not difficult at all. The sword techniques and breathing exercises are very simple. Just take a quick look, simulate them in your mind, and then your body follows your mind. Can't you guys do that?]

Perhaps because she had possessed divine talent for too long, Chen Xuan had come to equate mental mastery with physical mastery, which led to her subconsciously asking a question in return when Kanroji Mitsuri asked her that question.

[Ganluji Mili:? ? ? ? 】

[Kinomoto Sakura: ? ? ? ? ]

[Rin Tohsaka: ? ? ? ? ? ]

[Nami: ? ? ? ? ]

Upon seeing Chen Xuan's reply, everyone in the group was utterly bewildered. Even though they already knew that Chen Xuan's talent was extraordinary, what did she mean by "if the brain can do it, the body will follow suit"? This is swordsmanship that requires physical coordination. Did she not need any training or practice at all?

The breathing technique transmitted by Kanroji Mitsuri is a combination of breathing techniques and accompanying swordsmanship. Even if breathing techniques can be learned instantly, isn't swordsmanship something that requires dedicated training? How can it be said that the mind learns it and the body follows suit? Is this the difference between legendary geniuses and ordinary people like them?

[Chen Xuan: Oh, I forgot you all have to go through this training step.]

[Chen Xuan: Sorry, sorry. I've gotten so used to learning things quickly that I subconsciously assumed you guys were like me.]

After a couple of seconds of confusion, Chen Xuan finally came to her senses. She first apologized, and then, after a series of actions, an announcement popped up in the chat group.

"Group member Chen Xuan has uploaded products: Sun Breathing, Ripple Breathing Method, and Universal Breathing Method."
