Cosmic Breathing

The **Cosmic Breathing** (陸 (りく) 合 (ごう) の呼 (こ) 吸 (きゅう) , *Rikugō no kokyū*?) is a Breathing Style derived from the Moon Breathing.

The Cosmic Breathing combat and breathing style mimics the cosmos, specifically the flow of the stars, planets and systems flying throughout the universe and replicates it within the user's movements, techniques and abilities. The forms also utilize plasma energy and shockwave blasts, mimicking the properties of the enemy found within stars and galaxies. The swordsman opts for more tranquil and graceful moves to prevent recoil, stamina loss, and losing control over movements.
