LHC vs Mie Jue

[TristeCoeur]

Was having a conversation with Ken the other day about LHC without a sword and suddenly I thought of this pair.

LHC has DG9J and XXDF and YJJ, but without a sword he's mediocre. His lightness kungfu was worse than RYY, he had no palm or fist style.

Mie Jue had a bit of 9 Yang, Er Mei sword style (which was pretty good) and most importantly (to make the fight fair) the Heaven Sword. If you believe in the Deterioation theory, MJ would have pretty good inner power compared to top fighters in SOD.

Now when LHC fought someone like MJ with the Heaven Sword, how would he deal with her ? It is a very dangerous situation for LHC as if his sword came into contact with MJ's Heaven Sword, he would lose his sword and would be in big trouble. He couldn't fight barehanded like ZWJ to disarm MJ. He couldn't run either since his lightness kungfu is crap What do you think ?

I don't think LHC would allow his sword to collide with MJ's heaven sword. When LHC was battling with Feng Buping, because he has no inner energy and his external body is also weak. He knows that if his sword collide with Feng Buping's sword his sword would fly out of his hand. So during the entire fight the sword never collided.

So how did LHC prevail?

The injured inner power lacking LHC would probably get creamed. The later LHC with respectable inner power should be able to cream MJ, heaven sword or not.

And with LHC's tongue, he'll probably be able to infuriate MJ so much that she won't be able to concentrate properly.

well after a while Feng Buping lost concentration and got mad because the sword never made contact. Feng Buping did an all out attack forcing LHC to block. At this moment LHC thurst 4 move leaving cuts on all his arms and legs.

But you see, FBP wasn't using a mightly sword like the Heaven Sword.

Zhao Ming's "Ah Da" also used the Heaven Sword against ZWJ's wooden sword, and ZWJ made sure that the swords never cross on the edges, only the flat surface.

But Meh, ZWJ did lose his sword in the last stance. It's only because of his other kungfus that he managed to stop the sword (with his two fingers, LXF's style) and won, otherwise the sword would have gone through his chest in that stance.

/sorry have to go right now can't talk much

But it didn't matter coz the swords never made contact. It can't slice what it can't touch.

well, Mie Jue would have good decent inner chi compared to SOD fighters...she would eat the injured LHC easily w/o swords, but since LingHu Cong learned XiXin Da Fa and sucked some people's chi, he should be able to do decently agianst mie jue, if not suck up her qi as well . LHC with yi Jin JIn at the end of the novel shouldn't have much trouble with Mie Jue depending on how long he had been practicing.

I don't think LHC would allow his sword to collide with MJ's heaven sword.

yes, i agree...he does quite well with not touching ppl's swords.

Wuji using TaiChi sword vs. MeiJu, since DG9J also eventually reaches formlessness.

Now why would the swords have to come in contact with each other at all? If LHC is at the top of his game, the poitn of DG9J is to put the opponent in a position where they have to retreat.

Parrying is defensive. Therefore not part of the gameplan.

In any case, LHC so far in Lanny's translation RARELY clashes swords with anyone (for good reason since he has no internal energy right now).

In other words, if you want to defeat someone who's sword can cut your's like butter, you better attack the person and not the weapon.

Sounds easier than it is of course, but that's what DG9J is about.
