Sources

If you have replica sword, Channeling Matsuo and Etheric, you will learn a new instance of this technique if you have at least X+1 copies of Parry, Swordplay, Leaping Dodge, and Power Strike in your deck; where X is the current known number of copies of Demonslaying Blade. (I.e. to learn the first instance of this technique, you need one of each; to learn two, you need two of each, etc.)

Notes

* Most opponents that are not humans or animals count as demons for purposes of this technique. See Opponents testing for a full list.
