Chapter 10 Cultivation

After communicating with Tanjiro, Micah started a more arduous training life the next day.

Although the downhill training has been completed, he still has to do uphill and downhill training every day.

However, compared with what once took a whole day, Micah now only needs two or three hours to complete the trip up and down the mountain.

And this time continues to shorten.

The extra time is used for other exercises.

After that, the first thing to do is to train in swordsmanship.

During this training, Mr. Lintaki told Micah various knowledge about swords and how to use them.

According to him, the sword is very easy to break.

Even if it can withstand vertical forces, it can hardly withstand horizontal forces.

Therefore, use a straight force when using the sword.

Use force in the same direction as the blade.

In addition, there are many other techniques for using swords.

Mika silently listened to Mr. Lintaki's teachings, constantly absorbing the knowledge that he had never mastered before.

As his understanding of swords grew, Micah's sword-wielding training began to change.

Slowly, the moves Micah practiced were no longer just the empty swing. He began to practice other moves. Even if these were just the basics of the basics, Micah was immersed in them with joy.

The training time passed quickly.

Micah went up and down the mountain faster and faster, and the moves in his hands became more and more proficient.

Soon, new training began.

Wrestling training.

Micah is no stranger to this training.

In this training, Micah needs to hold a sword and face off against the bare-handed Sakonji Nedaki.

During training, once Micah is knocked down, he must get up quickly and enter fighting mode again.

The purpose of this training is to cushion the impact and stand up quickly no matter what position you are in.

This is to ensure one's continued combat capability.

As for whether the sword in his hand would hurt Mr. Lintaki, Mika felt that he didn't need to care at all.

Who is Rinataaki Sakonji?
Former water column!

If a rookie like Micah, who had not yet learned the breathing technique, could hurt him, then it would be fine if he didn't learn the breathing technique.

Actually exactly what he thought.

Facing Mika who was holding a sword, Sakon Taki was able to knock him down easily.

Even with a weapon in his hand, Micah couldn't hurt him at all.

It can only be said that a master is a master, and now you want to become a master?Still early!
In this way, Micana's career of constant falls officially began.

"Full concentration breathing!?"

Mika's eyes couldn't help but shine when he heard what Takaki Sakonji in front of him said about what he wanted to learn next.

Breathing!
The source of the Demon Slayer's strength.

This is what Micah really wants to learn.

"That's right, I will teach you all ten types of water in the future."

"Consciously breathe for a long time, so that oxygen can spread to every cell in the body, which can enhance the body's natural healing power, and can also stabilize and activate the spirit."

"Relax your upper body and keep your lower body steady."

Listening to Mr. Lintaki's instructions, Micah began to breathe according to his requirements.

However, how could Micah, who had never been exposed to this breathing method, learn it all at once?

Under Ryotaki Zuo's close scrutiny, Micah's breathing became more and more chaotic to the naked eye, and he couldn't meet the standard he said.

Faced with this situation, it was not surprising at all.

For humans who need to breathe all the time, changing the frequency of breathing is definitely extremely difficult.

But as a teacher, Rinaki Sakonji has his own teaching method.

Seeing Micah's posture gradually becoming irregular, he stretched out his fist and swung it directly.

"what!!!"

Under the fists of Nintaki Sakonji, Mika quickly mastered the rhythm of the breathing technique.

But he still has a long way to go to achieve the perfect mastery of this breathing rhythm.

After all, what he has to fight is the body memory that has been integrated with his spirit and body!
Unlike Tanjiro, who did not know the status of the breathing method, Mika, who knew its importance, set the breathing method and the ten water patterns to be practiced next as the next key research projects.

No need for Rinaki Zuo's last urging, Micah is very active in the practice of breathing.

Micah was also very happy to experience the feeling of "becoming one with the water" under the waterfall.

After all, in his opinion, practicing under a waterfall is really cool.

In addition to the breathing method, the ten water types of the water breathing school are also the focus of Mika's study.

One type, water surface slash.

The second type is the waterwheel.

Three shapes, flowing and dancing.

Type four, hitting the tide.

The type of five is the loving rain of a dry sky.

Six types, twisting vortex.

Type Seven, Shizuku's ripples strike and thrust.

Eight type, long teapot.

Type nine, water droplets.

The ten types of patterns circulate from generation to generation.

These ten water patterns are the essence of water breathing.

Since Micah received the teaching of these ten types of water, he began to practice and study continuously.

Micah devoted all his passion to pranayama and the ten water patterns.

Sometimes, if he didn't practice enough during the day, he would even take time to practice for a while when he got up to go to the toilet at night.

Because of his passion for sword training, Micah naturally delayed the progress of other trainings.

Therefore, when he completed all the training programs on the mountain with thin air, it had been a year and a half since he started practicing.

"I have nothing left to teach you! From now on, you can only rely on yourself to see if you can sublimate what I gave you."

When Micah heard this, he was stunned, and then bowed fiercely towards where Nintaki Sakonji was.

"Thank you for your teaching during this time, Master Lintaki!"

Micah was sincere in expressing his gratitude to Rintaki Sakonji.

As the saying goes, one day as a teacher, life as a father.

The respect for the master is engraved in Micah's bones.

"Well, come with me!"

Looking at Micah's movements, although Ningtaki felt extremely moved for the first time, he did not forget today's mission.

"Yes!"

Following Rintaki Sakonji, Mika already knew where he was going next.

There is no other possibility.

Soon, through a forest, Micah saw Tanjiro's figure.

At the same time, Tanjiro naturally saw the figures of Mika and Nintaki Sakonji.

Looking at Nintaki Sakonji, Tanjiro clearly wanted to ask something, which could be seen from his expression.

But looking at Micah, he hesitated again.

Under the leadership of Lintaki Sakonji, Micah came to the huge rock.

This is a round stone that is taller than Micah, and the surface of this round stone is full of knife marks.

"Just like Tanjirou, if you can cut this rock, I will allow you to participate in the 'Final Selection'!"

After that, he turned around and quietly disappeared into the jungle.

Looking at this huge rock, Micah's eyes revealed that this was indeed the case.

Because the swordsmen he trained all died in the final selection, Sakonji Nintaki, who couldn't bear to have Mika and Tanjiro die there, chose a rock for them that was almost impossible to cut.

Although his attitude had always been so bland, Micah still felt the concern that was unique to him.

Mika couldn't help laughing at this.

Turning around and looking at Tanjiro who looked frustrated, Mika smiled and shouted: "Hey, Tanjiro, it seems we are standing on the same track again!"

"How about it, do you want to compete?"
