Chapter 40 The Sword Is a Demon
On the fifth day of the Sword Discussion Conference, the top eight sword fights took place.
"Zhang Chengfeng of the Taoist Hall."
"He Guo."
He Guo, who studied under the sword master Lin Lie, wanted to say this in his heart, but If he holds back, his path will never stop at the top eight.
In this case, it is more impressive to say this sentence in the finals.
“Start.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Chengfeng followed the sword and attacked with his sword.
What the Taoist Temple practices is the dual cultivation of sword and Gu. The monks have made a pact with the Gu since they were young. They use their own spirituality as an offering to obtain the magic of the Gu. Then they practice swords wholeheartedly. The Gu is vicious. His swordsmanship is fierce, so his fighting power is astonishing.
Although the Tao foundation is destroyed, unless there is a great opportunity, it will be difficult to make progress in the future, but at the age of more than 20, you can have magical power that many people cannot achieve in a lifetime of practice. Swordsmanship, a majestic and happy life in this world.
Relying on this technique and several precious Gu insects passed down from generation to generation, Dao Dao Hall is ranked among the top three sword halls in the entire Lingnan Evernight City.
The person who made a legal contract with Zhang Chengfeng was a white snake that had been practicing for hundreds of years. At this moment, the snake's body was coiled on Zhang Chengfeng's sword.
When the flying sword attacks the opponent, this white snake will suddenly pounce out and bite the opponent together with the light of the sword, making it even more difficult to defend against. Moreover, this white snake has been trained by generations of Taoist priests and is covered in scales. The armor is strong, hard to be damaged by spells and swords, and full of spirituality.
It is almost impossible to think of it as a weakness.
If it was the first time to encounter such an opponent, he would definitely be at a loss.
But he was born and raised in the local area. The Taoist Hall was a place he had wandered outside hundreds of times and dreamed of entering. Coupled with his understanding of previous sword competitions, Zhang Chengfeng's snake sword double line, why How could he be totally unprepared?
It’s just that precautions are precautions. It is difficult to understand the horror of many swordsmanships without actually facing them personally.
Hiss, hiss!
From He Guo's perspective, the white-scaled venomous snake hissed and danced with the sword light. The two worked together, making it ten times more difficult to stop.
Snakes have the ability to pull weeds. As for the snake's coiling, bending, stretching, hardness, softness and wonderful equation, they are all attributed to Yi.
Zhang Chengfeng chose Jinhong Sword Hall Bai Feier's tactics, and he was confident of breaking through the defensive sword perimeter that Bai Feier could not break through.
Because the sword and Gu double cultivators are combined with the snake sword, their sword tactics are much more powerful than the Jin Hong Feiyun sword tactics.
At this time, the battle situation developed just as Zhang Chengfeng expected. He continued to attack and advance, while the opponent stumbled and staggered, barely controlling the sword light and maintaining it was very difficult.
At the same time, Lu Cheng, whose pseudonym was Lin Lie, was teaching swordsmanship to several apprentices who had handed over spirit stones in the Yuelai Inn.
Except for He Guo, the first one who came to study had two spiritual stones, the second one had four stones, the third one had eight stones, and the fourth one had sixteen stones.
Because of this price increase method, only four apprentices came to study in Lucheng. Sixteen spirit stones were enough to study in the best sword hall in the Evernight City for two months.
"Master Lin, aren't you worried about Senior Brother He?"
The young man in a blue silk robe is the fourth apprentice, but he seems to have no intention of practicing swordsmanship. Come to Lu Cheng to inquire about He Guo's situation.
“Just practice your sword well. Yu Liang, your problem is not a swordsmanship problem at all, but a lack of hard practice. You have good qualifications, and your understanding of swordsmanship in this realm is also correct. Yes, but if you don’t practice hard, your hands, eyes, and heart will not be harmonious, and your sword skills will not be able to reach your body.”
The first three apprentices all practiced hard and desperately to master the spirit stone. Only this Yu Liang mastered it. The sixteen spiritual stones didn't seem to care.
"Hehe, I'll tell you the truth, Master Lin. My body has long been drained by alcohol and sex. I still want to achieve something on the road with this weak body? I know it's impossible. I want to inherit my life. Dad’s family business, I have spent all my spiritual stones on Xie Yan for so many years. Although I despise that boy, that boy is very good at swordsmanship. His talent in swordsmanship is really great. From the age of eight, he has mastered any swordsmanship!” , although he is neither a thorn nor a voodoo, he has been known as a genius since he was a child. He is now sixteen years old like He Guo and is one of the top eight.
Hearing this, Lu Cheng looked at Yu Liang, and then said with a smile:
“Since you have no intention of learning swordsmanship, then don’t waste your time with me, go and help me with something, here It’s two thousand spiritual stones, help me put them on your body, Senior Brother He.”
Pointing He Guo to the ground was a move of his own, with the intention of attracting the attention of the Lin family, but if He Guo is not a good piece of material, Three days? It’s just thirty days, so what if it’s three hundred days?
What is really scary is that He has endured for ten years and gritted his teeth and persevered. As for himself, he just pushed him to the devil's path.
However, the sword is not a toy, it is a weapon itself, it is... a demon!
The Evernight City Swordsmanship Hall, the quarterfinals in the ring.
Zhang Chengfeng has been forced to retreat by the combination of snake and sword, and it seems that he will be attacked by the light of the sword or the white-scaled poisonous snake at any time.
Even the swordsman in the arena is ready to rescue He Guo at any time.
But right now.
From Zhang Chengfeng’s perspective, He Guo’s figure suddenly disappeared.
This only lasted a very short moment. The next moment, the snake Gu had already found his opponent in the blind spot of Zhang Chengfeng's sight, hissing to intimidate and remind the Gu master.
"Some kind of exquisite footwork to avoid sight, but I can only get a chance to use my sword. If you block it, I will win."
This thought has not been finished yet, Zhang Chengfeng Turning around, he saw a meteor-like sword light.
Meteor from the sky!
After more than ten years of hard training, he has good swordsmanship skills, and he returned the sword in time to block.
There is a snake poison and a second-level middle-grade flying sword. This sword should be able to block it.
锵.
The two sides passed by each other.
When Zhang Chengfeng's mind slowly returned, the second-order mid-grade flying sword in his hand had been broken, and his opponent hit the sword's spine with the blade. Even the first-order low-grade flying sword could cut through the second-order mid-grade flying sword. Flying sword, this is the difference in swordsmanship.
The white snake Gu that the Taoist Hall had cultivated for hundreds of years was cut off in half. At this moment, half of the snake's body is still struggling.
"How could it be?"
"How could this be?"
"Zhang Chengfeng seemed to be stunned just now?"
"Fake fight?"
"You used your cultivation to fake a fight? He is a Gu master, and White Snake Gu is the Golden Mountain of the Taoist Temple. You won't take action even if you give him five thousand spiritual stones."< br>
Under the backlash, Zhang Chengfeng vomited blood in his mouth and was already trying to pick up the white snake Gu.
“Don’t move!”
Seeing this, the master of the Taoist Hall flew up and used his sword to pick away the twisting half of the snake body on the ring.
No one would recognize a nearly dead snake like this and bite anyone who came close. Therefore, even though his heart was dripping with blood, the master of the Taoist Pavilion still used his sword to crush the snake completely into pieces.
It also made Zhang Chengfeng spit out blood and fainted completely.
At Yuelai Inn, Lu Cheng looked at the three apprentices practicing swordsmanship in front of him, and thought to himself: "You pierce the yin to attract ghosts, and practice both poison and sword, then I will plant my sword intention in He Guo, Not too much?”
Although this will hinder He Guo's future practice, if He Guo can defeat Lu Cheng's sword intention on his own, it will be a kind of training for his own swordsmanship. If he cannot, his cultivation will reach a certain level. It will be difficult to improve later.
That is Lu Cheng's current state, the ninth level of Qi training.
However, this kind of suppression is much better than the cultivation methods of thorn-yin attracting ghosts and Gu-sword double cultivation, which have no own Tao foundation at all, but it also has higher requirements for practitioners.
He Guo has practiced righteous swordsmanship hard since he was a child. In addition, his youth was too hard, too difficult, too tiring, and too desperate, so he was able to withstand the power of Lu Cheng's sword intention in three days. After continuous hard work, he finally obtained three-thirds of the sword intention in the sword from the meteor outside the sky.
Just these three points of sword intent are enough to frighten people's minds.
All those who bear this sword will have a loss of consciousness. The Yin spirit has no physical protection, and the Gu insect has a weaker mind. They are all restrained by this sword, just like the white snake Gu in the Taoist Pavilion. After being lost, the scales on his body were not closed enough to be strong, and he was killed with a sword.
But Lu Cheng understood the truth behind this. The monks in the Nightless City had not seen the Sword Intent become powerful for decades or hundreds of years. How could they possibly imagine it at the moment?
"Master Lin!"
Just like yesterday, He Guo came to Yuelai Inn with a large bag of spiritual stones, raised his hands, and knelt beside Lu Cheng again.
"Five hundred spirit stones are enough for you to live comfortably for a lifetime, and you want me to save them for you?"
"Excuse me, Master Lin."
After learning the sword by myself, why should I respect the person in front of me as if I were a god?
As the opponents he faced became more and more powerful, his admiration and awe for Lu Cheng deepened. Without Master Lin, he would not even be able to enter the top 100 now.
Because of this, Lu Cheng accepted two more apprentices today, one handed over thirty-two spiritual stones, and the other handed over sixty-four spiritual stones. They were both in their twenties and thirties, and had good swordsmanship. The monk was already quite experienced, but he was still willing to offer his spiritual stone and let Lu Cheng guide them for three days.
While instructing these people, Lu Cheng was also constantly observing their true breath interaction methods. Each monk practiced different basic Qi training methods, and the interaction methods between his own magic power and flying swords were also different. Different, even two monks who practice the same qi training method are likely to have quite different qi movement habits, which Lu Cheng lacks.
He has thousands of sword techniques and sword moves in his mind, but in order to display these sword moves in this world of cultivating immortals, he needs the corresponding interactive techniques to cooperate, otherwise, they will have no power.
Therefore, Lu Cheng's benefits during this period were even greater than those of these students.
After all, he had no way to teach these apprentices all the many sword moves he knew well. He could only make up for their flaws and modify the sword techniques. However, the secrets of each of these apprentices' mana operation were taught by Lu Cheng. To the point of being inseparable.
It turns out that many methods of mana operation can still be done this way, and it is also feasible.
…………
The sixth day of the Sword Discussion Conference is the day when the four strongest swords fight.
Red Sun Sword Hall, Xie Feng Tower.
Both of these two are already the top sword gyms in the Evernight City. Liu Tianshu and Lin Junhua among the top four are now disciples of their sword halls. Facing the Xie family and Xie Yan is fine, but what’s wrong with facing them? They really can't afford to lose.
If it weren’t for the Sword Discussion Conference, which is a grand event held once every ten years in the city that never sleeps, the city patrol officer would have been staring at this place, using open and covert weapons to greet He Guo.
“This move ‘Meteor from the Sky’ is so simple, why can’t it be avoided and broken? Bai Feier and Zhang Chengfeng are already at the sixth level of Qi training, especially Zhang Chengfeng, Sword Gu How could he be defeated in dual cultivation so unclearly? "
Chiri Sword Hall advocate Ling, Xie Fenglou Liu Rusong has been studying this sword technique for a whole day and night. However, they still failed to penetrate the essence of this sword.
On this day, He Guo was heading to the main hall with his long sword.
In the past few days, he has been living at the door of Master Lin's room, and he has not even gone to the innkeeper to change him to a better room.
What I eat every day is steamed buns that I have bought a long time ago, and what I drink every day is ice-cold well water that I draw myself.
He Guo also knew how difficult it would be for a poor boy to step on those big sword halls and walk up step by step, so he was cautious and did not dare to make the slightest mistake.
If you still can’t use your left arm, tie it to your body. Anyway, I am accustomed to using the sword in my right hand, and I don’t know any spells that require the cooperation of both hands. Being poor since childhood is actually an advantage at this time.
Just on the way to the Swordsmanship Headquarters.
A passerby with a mustache suddenly appeared next to He Guo, and several men and women suddenly appeared from all directions, vaguely surrounding him.
“Don’t be surprised, my little friend. I am Hu Wanquan, the manager of the Red Sun Sword Hall.”
“My little friend was born in a poor family and worked hard all the way to the semi-finals. He has already become famous. He is not as good as today. After a while of slowly defeating him, thousands of spirit stones, a mansion in the east city, a beautiful wife, a beautiful concubine, and servants have all been prepared for the little friend. , As long as the little friend agrees, if you give these in full, you can still get the friendship of Chiyang Sword Hall, and you will be safe for the rest of your life!"
When Hu Wanquan said these words, there were two people on the left and right! This is a female cultivator in Taoist robes with curvaceous breasts and round buttocks. One is pure and the other is hot and sexy. She flutters to the left and right sides of her body. Her skin is delicate and her breath is as blue as blue.
As long as He Guo is willing, he doesn't have to go to today's sword competition. He can directly carry these two beautiful female cultivators to his mansion in Dongcheng and enjoy life.
Although the city that never sleeps has its own rules, and the city patrol department also keeps a close eye on the sword discussion conference, but if you give up subjectively, the city patrol department can't say anything, not to mention the inherent nature of your body. With the sword wound, it would be understandable for him to quit midway.
“A beautiful wife, a beautiful concubine, beautiful clothes and food, these are indeed very tempting, but unfortunately, these are not what I want.”
He Guo still held his sword tightly, still Moving forward.
“Then what do you want?”
Hu Wanquan frowned slightly, feeling that the other party was asking the lion to open his mouth.
“What I want is...to get ahead!”
Qiang.
He Guo held the sword horizontally, and the cold sword light spread out.
The two female cultivators in Taoist robes were so shocked that their beautiful faces turned pale and they both backed away.
"What are you doing?"
At this moment, a group of monks wearing the uniforms of the city patrol officers arrived.
They were originally sent to protect He Guo. Civilian heroes who rarely appear once in decades. If something happened during the competition, it would be too ugly. Would the elders want to see this? something happened.
But this team of monks was bribed by Hu Wanquan, and they only left for a while, and promised that they would only use inducements and not coercion, let alone take action.
That’s why this team of city patrol monks arrived in such timely manner to prevent the two sides from really conflicting.
On the sixth day of the Sword Discussion Conference, why did you go to Liu Tianshu of the Red Sun Sword Hall?
Liu Tianshu defended with all his strength with his big blunt sword, trying to defeat the mystery of meteors from the sky before he could counterattack.
However, it was of no use. As the sword light flashed across like a meteor, Liu Tianshu of the Scarlet Sun Sword Hall was defeated.
He Guo wanted to make Master Lin famous, so he never concealed his meteor style. This sword move and He Guo's name gradually resounded throughout the city that never sleeps.
