Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

\'I can delay the matter of selecting my training manual for the time when I hit the gold rank at least,\' he decided before shifting his attention towards the next type of techniques.

The next type was the one he sought after; the ones related to elements. Although such techniques were quite overbearing, they still placed much pressure over his spirit power.

And after many hours of considering everything, he decided to go all out and modify a few techniques he knew to better suit his current situation.

\'I know the main theories behind these techniques… But I have three elements I never got in my past life before… So, I have to first try and test things out…\'

He didn\'t take too long to select three techniques he could use with his spirit.

After a thorough thinking, his option list was already narrowed down to these three.

First, they were the lowest in terms of spirit power consumption rate and requirement. Secondly, they were related to each of his three elements.

And lastly, they were suiting his gold grade sword.

Techniques were also related to the weapon spirit masters used. For example, techniques for daggers, swords, sabres, and knives might look similar and suitable to be used by any of these.

However, William knew the little differences that many spirit masters might overlook were enough to raise the spirit power consumption by great margin.

He wouldn\'t act like these ignorant spirit masters and wouldn\'t use a technique that wasn\'t suited for swords in the first place.

Then it came down to the theories behind each technique.

Each technique would be composed of the steps needed to perform the technique, the spiritual element requirement behind it, the amount of spirit power needed to trigger its lowest form, and the spirit energy consumption rate during performing any technique.

However, the most important thing would be the theory behind each technique.

William knew not all the spirit masters were well aware of this. And those who did were able to modify and even come up with totally new techniques like what he intended to do.

As for these three techniques, one was related to the lightning element. It was called the Lightning Hawk technique.

This technique would allow the spirit master to run a hundred metres or more in one second, gather up the momentum before jumping up for almost ten metres in the air and then falling with the sword over the target.

The strike created by such technique would be formed entirely of lighting, looking like a hawk falling from high altitude and descending over the ground to hunt its prey.

It was a deadly technique, and the deadliest element in it relied on the speed it showed.

If the enemy wasn\'t able to match such speed, then he\'d end up getting involved in the devastating attack that\'d follow.

Not to mention speed was needed to build up the momentum and even the explosive attack that would come later on.

The essence behind this technique was simple, speed! William knew without the momentum gained before releasing such a strike, then the attack would lose much of its strength, even failing to get executed.

But the pressure his body would suffer from it wasn\'t that easy to handle. He had to accelerate in less than a second and cross a distance he wouldn\'t be able to cross in even ten seconds.

The second technique was related to the darkness element. It was known to be a deadly assassin type attack that couldn\'t be easily guarded against.

It was called the Silent Moon technique. When used, the spirit master would blend with any darkness around, moving at a very fast speed that would enable him to travel hundreds of metres in the span of few seconds.

The spirit master would be powered by the darkness around, ending up saving tons of spirit power for him to execute such a strike.

During the travel through darkness, the spirit master would move his sword around in a circular way, yet without causing a single sound.

All the sounds and energy of the swings would be stored at the sword until the moment the spirit master reached his target. By then he\'d unleash a strong attack that stacked lots of power inside and release it over the target in an inescapable attack with a thunderous boom.

The deadliest element about such technique would be in how it would be silent until the moment of the strike.

Many would think the base of such technique would be in the darkness around the spirit master. After all, darkness concealed the movements of the spirit masters using this technique and allowed them to perform brilliant assassinations that couldn\'t be countered easily.

However, William knew this wasn\'t true.

The true essence of such technique relied upon the gathering of many swings\' powers during the silent march of the spirit master through darkness.

Without stacking as many swings as possible, the last strike wouldn\'t bring the devastating effect it was infamous for.

The third technique was related to the light element.

It was a widely spread mistake from many spirit masters, formidable ones included, that the light based techniques were all related to purifying effects and such.

But William knew how deadly the light element based techniques could be.

The technique he selected was called the Burning Star technique. By waving the sword many times, the spirit master would release his spirit power and let it burn through his sword.

At least twenty moves needed to be done in the span of five seconds to charge up the attack. As for these strikes, each had to be done in a specific way that William was familiar with.
