"Is this the Zhenhuang Palace?"
After walking out of the correct maze exit for the first time, Xu Xiaoshou finally encountered a little more light.
But overall, Sin Yidian is still gloomy.
In front of you is a majestic hall. On the plaque are three ancient characters "Zhenhuang Palace". Its height, its breadth, and its unfathomable size.
Like the Hall of Unforgiveness, this is also a giant building, so big that it has no edges.
After approaching this majestic palace, Xu Xiaoshou was immediately attracted by the enveloping formation.
With this layer of barrier, the situation inside the hall is completely unclear and it is in a hazy state.
He subconsciously analyzed this formation, but found that even with his "textile proficiency", it was difficult to find the weak points of this formation.
Finally met my opponent...
This ancient formation is indeed difficult to break!
Time seems to have not worn out the Zhenhuang Palace's palace-protecting formation, but has added a bit of historical charm to it, as well as the ability to be self-sufficient and revitalize the formation with the power of the formation.
"Brother Chen, give in a moment."
Gu Qingyi also looked away from the plaque on the main hall, but he picked up his sword and warned with a serious expression: "Later, remember to avoid the formation's counterattack."
Xu Xiaoshou was startled and retreated subconsciously.
Before he could react what Gu Qingyi was going to do, he saw this guy put his thumb against the guard of the Evil Sword Yue Lian and pushed it gently.
There was a clang sound, and under the entanglement of the sealing belt, the evil sword's blade was only two fingers wide.
"boom!"
However, the sky-wide sword light gathered and took shape from behind Gu Qingyi, plowing through the earth and the void, slashing straight towards the formation guarding the Zhenhuang Palace, cutting a gap more than ten feet high on the spot.
"Ah this..."
Xu Xiaoshou was stunned.
Is this pure ancient sword cultivation, being so unreasonable and just slashing?
The formation of Zhenhuang Palace was attacked, and it suddenly lit up with luster. The next second, it turned into a ferocious beast. Countless rays of spiritual light were released from the formation, shooting wildly.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Xu Xiaoshou reacted very quickly, moving left and right.
The spiritual lights shot at each other, but they didn't even touch the corner of his clothes.
"Very weak."
Xu Xiaoshou frowned at the intensity of the attack.
Don't say it's him, I'm afraid the junior sister can get out of the way if she comes over.
Basically, a normal Throne Realm can survive this spiritual light attack unscathed.
Is this the attack strength that the formation protecting Zhenhuang Palace should have?
Xu Xiaoshou was thinking and couldn't help but glance at the two people beside him.
The two Gu brothers from the Sword Burial Tomb were almost identical in their movements, expressions, and moves.
Gu Qing, the swordsman holding the evil sword Yue Lian, had an indifferent expression and his body almost turned transparent. He allowed the spiritual light to sweep across his body without moving at all, without being affected at all.
Nine Swordsman Gu Qing'er didn't have a sword in his arms, so he simply hugged his chest, his expression indifferent, his body almost turned transparent, and he let...
Xu Xiaoshou's mouth twitched when he saw it.
This repeater... no, the replicator is online again!
As long as he is with his senior brother, he will imitate everything, and even go beyond it.
Don't you see, Gu Qing'er's mouth was filled with sarcasm at this moment, as if he was scorning the counterattack of this large formation, with four big words written all over his face - Disdain!
"Is there no swordsmanship..."
Xu Xiaoshou felt that he was at a disadvantage for a moment.
It seems that a pure ancient sword cultivator will give people this feeling, powerful and humble, but his actions are extremely high-profile and full of style!
To put it simply, this guy pretended to be so good that even Xu Xiaoshou was willing to lose.
This is not only reflected in the two Gu brothers now, Mr. Si Ren also feels this way inadvertently sometimes.
Of course, the one with the strongest taste is undoubtedly the Eight Masters!
The counterattack of the Zhenhuang Palace Formation did not last long before the aura stopped.
At this moment, the gap in the spiritual formation that was cut by Gu Qingyi has not yet healed, and is still several feet high.
After the counterattack was over, Gu Qingyi's body returned to gaze. He glanced at his second junior brother in surprise, "You have made progress."
"Hey!" Gu Qing'er became very proud after being praised. He raised his head like a tail and said proudly, "I've made a lot of progress. I haven't seen you for a day. Junior brother, I'm making rapid progress. I'm almost there." Evolutionist..."
"Did I let you speak?"
"Uh, shut up, I shut up..."
Gu Qing calmed down his junior brother and then turned around with a smile.
"Brother Chen, please."
Xu Xiaoshou approached the formation, and he could clearly feel the vastness of the sea belonging to Gu Qingyi from the gap in the formation, and the sharp sword intent was hidden in it.
Different from the feeling of Jian Nian, this is pure sword intention.
It stands to reason that with this sword intent alone, no matter how high the level is, it should not be able to break the formation.
Xu Xiaoshou knew how high the defense level of this formation was. Ordinary Taixu's powerful bombardment might not be able to shatter this formation.
But Gu Qingyi can tear apart the defense with just one sword...
"What's this trick?"
Xu Xiaoshou was very curious about Gu Qingyi's style.
He had seen it three times, but only this time, Gu Qingyi used the sword in front of him and got the clearest feedback.
Touching the gap in the Zhenhuang Palace's formation, Xu Xiaoshou could feel a faint gray evil energy that was beyond the sword's intention.
This evil spirit is very strange, the person is extremely high-ranking, but has no holy will.
But it feels like it's not much different from the Saint-level power. It's obviously the exclusive power of Evil Sword Yue Lian.
"This is called 'Sword Kai'!"
Gu Qing'er became energetic immediately, apparently forgetting that he was also given a gag order by his senior brother, and kept chattering:
"This 'Sword Qi' is an original creation of my master. It uses the power of the first level of hidden swordsmanship, the 'Unsheathed Sword'."
"But actually, it's not really an unsheathed sword, it's just the simple use of an unsheathed sword. Of course, it also contains a lot of knowledge."
"Such as cultivating the Dao, gathering the Dao, preaching the Dao, breaking the Dao... and other knowledge related to the Three Thousand Sword Dao. The most important thing is the "Warm Sword Technique".
Hidden sword skills, unsheathed sword?
Xu Xiaoshou's eyes were surprised. His only impressions of hidden swordsmanship were Ba Zunzhen and Xiao Wanfeng.
But with Hidden Swordsmanship, doesn’t it mean that you can’t draw the sword when you hide it?
besides......
"What is Wen Jian Shu?" Xu Xiaoshou was quite curious.
The ancient swordsmanship is really both powerful and sophisticated. The time I have been following Mr. Siren has been short, and he still has too many questions to understand.
Gu Qing'er took a sneak look at his senior brother and found that his senior brother didn't stop him from talking. He became bolder all of a sudden.
"Hehe, Brother Chen, you can think about it, what is my master's surname and name."
Wen Ting......
temperature......
Xu Xiaoshou frowned, "So?"
Gu Qinger cleared his throat, raised his head with his hands behind his hands, his eyes became far-reaching, and his tone became a bit more old-fashioned.
"So-called people! People..."
Gu Qing twitched the corner of his mouth and almost struck with his sword, "Be serious!"
He didn't mind Gu Qing'er answering his savior's questions in person.
Exchanges on ancient swordsmanship are benign for the few ancient swordsmen cultivators in the world, and are conducive to each other's growth and the development of ancient swordsmanship.
Gu Qing'er was so frightened that he immediately stopped imitating his master and explained:
"Brother Chen can understand "warming the art of swords" this way... Living in the courtyard can nourish the mind; living in the sheath of the sword can warm the spirit of the sword."
"This is a special method of using hidden swordsmanship. It is not purely "storage". It takes several years, even decades, to unsheath the sword and cut out the sword. "
"It treats the sword as a
The naughty child is nurtured in the courtyard, that is, in the scabbard, and the energy of this naughty child is constantly accumulated. "
"When needed, all the energy of the naughty child can be released in an instant with just one movement of the sword."
"This is "Sword Qi"! "
Gu Qing'er talked about the knowledge of ancient swordsmanship and talked a lot. At the end, he added seriously:
"But not all sword cultivators and all swords can use 'Sword Kai'."
"This is related to the sword holder's cultivation, his understanding of the hidden sword technique, and also the requirements for the sword holder's sword."
"For example, an ordinary spiritual sword is like a child without much energy. No matter how much you nurture it, it will just be like that. It can't do much damage when the sword is activated."
"But the famous sword is different. It is like an energetic child. If you keep it closed and don't use it, it will even get angry."
"'Sword Qi' came into being with my master's understanding."
"It does not restrain the spirituality of the famous sword. It allows it to be active all the time in the court, that is, in the scabbard, but it accumulates and warms the spirituality."
Speaking of this, Gu Qing was very excited and suddenly pulled out the blood sword Stunning Enchantress from his back and waved it.
"When the time comes... draw your sword and cut through the galaxy!"
Xu Xiaoshou nodded, he understood.
Gu Qingyi's "Sword Qi" is similar to his early sword-drawing skills, but it uses more orthodox knowledge of ancient swordsmanship, which is much better than his blind sword-drawing skills.
Hidden sword skills and unsheathed swords, can they still be used like this?
While Xu Xiaoshou was greatly shocked, he also gained a new understanding of the ancient swordsmanship of these swordsmen.
He thought for a while, looked at the shrinking gap in the formation in front of him, turned his hand and took out a seventh-grade spiritual sword.
It’s not about hiding suffering.
Zangku is still weak, and he is afraid of destroying Zangku.
This spiritual sword is a relic belonging to an unknown enemy.
Xu Xiaoshou wanted to give it a try.
After listening to Gu Qing'er's words, he felt that he had mastered "Sword Qi".
This is no joke, "Sword Mastery" contains a lot of basic knowledge of swordsmanship.
Gu Qing'er's words were like a conduit, guiding something out of the closed pool, making people enlightened.
"Brother Chen, this is going too far..."
Gu Qing'er glanced at the seventh-grade innate spirit sword that suddenly appeared in his savior's hand. He immediately understood what he wanted to do, but he smiled and shook his head.
"Not to mention that the seventh-grade spiritual sword doesn't have much spirituality, it can't support the 'Sword Kai' at all."
"This style can be regarded as my unique skill at the Sword Tomb. It requires a deep knowledge of hidden swordsmanship."
"Brother Chen doesn't know that in this huge sword burial mound, except for my master and my senior brother, no one has learned this technique. It's the same for me, and it's the same for my junior brother."
"If you can understand it now, I will kneel down and eat it on the spot..."
"Shut up!" Gu Qingyi glared at him coldly.
"Oh." Gu Qinger realized that he had made a mistake and quickly covered his mouth.
"Back away." Gu Qing pulled his second junior brother away and made room for Chen Shu.
He has always been curious about this man. He could directly smell that Brother Chen's sword spirit was very strong, and his swordsmanship was probably not weak.
But Gu Qingyi had never seen Chen Shu use his sword.
Even now, Brother Chen has only taken out a seventh-grade spiritual sword that he knew was not his sword.
Its strength is unknown.
But one thing the second junior brother said is right. The exclusive inheritance of the Burial Sword Tomb now only has four people... Oh, after having the younger junior sister, there are five people.
Not only are these five people extremely talented, they are also rare in the five regions of the mainland.
Even the second junior brother and the youngest junior brother had not mastered Jian Qi yet, and Gu Qingyi did not believe that Chen Shu could master this style overnight through the second junior brother's verbal description.
Xu Xiaoshou never failed
Explain more.
He only imitated Gu Qingyi's movements, lightly holding the sheath of the sword and placing his thumb on the guard of the spirit sword, thinking carefully.
After a long moment, he pushed gently.
"Click."
The sword was spread two fingers wide, and the air was calm, like the calm before the storm.
Gu Qing'er stared and waited with a solemn face.
The next second, his eyes started to move, moving left and right, and he found that there was no sound of swords around, let alone sword energy.
Only silence?
No storm?
"Pfft...ugh!"
Gu Qing'er's laughter stopped abruptly when his senior brother glared at him and immediately covered his mouth.
But the amusement in his eyes was unbearable. Gu Qing'er finally couldn't hold back his mouth and spoke with a smile:
"Brother Chen, stop struggling. In the words of my master, you are 'too ambitious'. You must at least learn the art of hiding a sword first... Uh, okay, shut up, I'll shut up."
Gu Qing glared at his junior brother, but did not laugh at him. He only looked at Chen Shu seriously.
Anyone who is focused on something serious should not be laughed at by outsiders.
Xu Xiaoshou's mood was very stable, and of course he would not be disturbed by Gu Qing'er's words. He turned his head, frowned and asked:
"Need power?"
As soon as these two words came out, Gu Qing'er's expression froze, and there was disbelief in his eyes.
Gu Qing's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly. He was overjoyed as if he had met a close friend.
"Yes, it requires not only 'power' but also 'intention'!"
"Spiritual swords are just carriers. The key to 'Sword Initiation' lies in whether the sword wielder's sword intention and sword power can be warmed at the same time in the sword court...well, in the scabbard."
"Otherwise, relying solely on the spirit sword itself, even if it is a famous sword, no matter how strong its spirit is, it will not cause any special damage when it is unsheathed."
Xu Xiaoshou nodded thoughtfully.
He thought it all depended on the spirit sword itself!
I just tried it, but when I pushed the Spirit Sword away, it was like a person farting. Apart from attracting ridicule, it made no big noise at all.
"You need 'moment' and 'intention', and it really depends on the sword wielder... This is very similar to my 'Drawing Sword Stance', which is an advanced 'Drawing Sword Stance'..."
Xu Xiaoshou tried to combine the sword intention and his own power into the spiritual sword in his hand.
Soon, the seventh-grade spiritual sword buzzed loudly, like a small wooden bucket filled with water that was suddenly poured into the vast ocean, which was completely unable to withstand it.
"this......"
Gu Qing'er stared in surprise.
Brother Chen is very strong. This sword's intention and power can be felt from a distance as domineering and invincible through the scabbard.
Sure enough, those who can enter the sin palace at such a young age are all wolves in sheep's clothing... just like me!
"Elder brother, how tall is he?" Gu Qing'er asked quietly, turning his head.
"In terms of sword intent and power alone, I'm afraid he's higher than you."
"This is impossible! Senior brother doesn't know that I have broken through now, I have mastered it... Well, I won't tell you!"
"Single argument." Gu Qingyi did not deny the achievements of his junior brother's practice, and stared at Chen Shu and his sword with burning eyes.
If the roughness of the sword body represents the unaccustomed feeling of trying it for the first time, with the addition of lubricant over time and feeling the connection point between man and sword, Xu Xiaoshou finally understood what smoothness means. .
At this moment, the spirit sword's blade stopped trembling, and Xu Xiaoshou's whole body seemed to have entered a state of stillness.
coming! That’s it! It's time to break out!
Xu Xiaoshou opened his eyes, raised his thumb, and pushed the seventh-grade spiritual sword two fingers wide.
"Keng——"
The melodious sound of swords sounded.
The wind and sand swirled outside Zhenhuang Palace, seeming to have entered a realm unique to swords.
The two brothers of the Gu family only felt a flash of light before their eyes, and a circular sword light erupted from Brother Chen's sword body, which was difficult to see with the naked eye.
With the speed of inspection, he slashed in all directions.
"Fuck!"
Gu Qing'er was shocked.
The eldest brother's sword light cuts vertically from back to front.
Chen Shu's sword light was in the shape of a circle and a horizontal slash, aiming to cut the two of them in half.
At the critical moment, Gu Qingyi reacted extremely quickly.
He took half a step forward immediately, raised his hands, and raised the famous sword in his arms.
He didn't move his sword, he just held the second junior brother behind him with his left hand, put his fingers together with his right hand and blocked it in front of his chest.
"Pong!"
The sound of war sounded harshly.
With a sword pointing, Gu Qing was knocked back half a step by the sword light, but he completely blocked the damage.
He then crossed his arms and hugged Evil Sword Yue Lian again, with a look of shock in his eyes.
"What a strong sword spirit! What a powerful force!"
If the younger junior brother Gu Qingsan is a monster, he was an excellent embryo for practicing swordsmanship when he was born, possessing the "Swordsmanship Body";
The second junior brother, Gu Qing'er, is a genius. He has shown extremely high sensitivity to swords since he started practicing swordsmanship.
Then Gu Qingyi is just an ordinary person.
He never had any particularly amazing talent in swordsmanship, he was only interested in and focused on swords.
The reason why he was favored by Master Wen Ting was also because of this.
In order not to be caught up by his junior brothers, Gu Qingyi needs to spend more time practicing and studying than the two of them.
Junior disciples may be punished by copying the Sword Sutra a hundred times and gain something.
Gu Qing copied it ten thousand times, but still couldn't figure out anything.
However, because of the environment of the Sword Tomb and his obsession with swords, Gu Qingyi developed a special physique that even his master Wen Ting could not see through.
He only needs to smell anything related to swords... just like ordinary people smell, Gu Qing can basically understand where the speed is with just a slight sniff.
Gu Qingyi didn't know whether this meant he had developed a special sword body for himself the day after tomorrow.
But this ability is very useful whether it is training, fighting, or finding people and enemies.
At the moment, with this ability, Gu Qingyi could clearly feel that Chen Shu's sword intent was at a very high level, almost on par with his.
As for the potential inside this...
It's not like a young person can develop this kind of momentum!
It was taller than him, almost crushing him. None of the Taixu I had seen before had such power!
"Buzz..."
Xu Xiaoshou looked at the healed palace-protecting formation in front of him, which only caused a slight ripple when he slashed it, and then no longer reacted. He immediately understood that his sword was not as good as one ten thousandth of Gu Qingyi's.
He was a little disappointed and raised the spiritual sword in his hand.
"Snapped!"
The dignified seventh-grade innate spiritual sword actually broke.
The sword was completely broken, and even the scabbard was in pieces.
Xu Xiaoshou: "..."
This sword is too weak, but also too strong. As a carrier, the innate spiritual sword obviously cannot bear it.
Next to him, Gu Qinger was stunned.
He really never thought that someone would cultivate "Sword Qi" after listening to his words.
Is it because I am too strong and has the talent to be a teacher, or...
"This is impossible!"
Gu Qing'er ran up from behind his senior brother, grabbed the fragments of Chen Shu's broken sword and began to study it.
"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible..."
"Under suspicion, passive value, +1."
"Being in awe, passive value, +1."
"It's a bit weak." Xu Xiaoshou looked helplessly at Gu Qingyi, indicating that he might need to cut through the formation again.
Gu Qingyi took a deep breath and said: "Brother Chen, you can actually take out your sword. I can see that if you use your exclusive sword, this style will be more than this."
Sword?
Hiding suffering?
I am afraid that the current suffering cannot hide my intention and power.
As for the Four Swords and the Yan Python, once these two swords are released, they should be able to compete with Gu Qingyi's evil sword Yue Lian.
It's just that the symbol is too strong, and Xu Xiaoshou doesn't plan to reveal his identity in front of the two Gu brothers yet.
"Brother Chen, teach me!" Gu Qing'er couldn't figure out the fragments of the seventh-grade spiritual sword, so he hugged Brother Chen's thigh again, and then he let go after being stabbed.
He spread his hands, looked at the familiar blood on his palms, and fell into deep thought.
It turns out that it wasn't the senior brother who became stronger, but me hugging a hedgehog?
"Cursed, passive value, +1."
"Your master, your senior brothers are far better than me. How dare I talk about teaching you? If you really want to say it, you taught me this sword." Xu Xiao smiled bitterly.
Gu Qing'er was extremely angry.
He was very annoyed about the ancient sword cultivator.
He couldn't stand the excessive modesty of these ancient sword cultivators.
The wise person is the teacher...
As a result, Master is like this, Senior Brother is like this, and Brother Chen is like this, they are all too humble!
"You don't know Ji Dao?" Gu Qing'er changed the subject. As long as he does Ji Dao, Brother Chen's power can be concentrated on one point, so that "Jian Qi" will not be cut into a large circle of damage.
Xu Xiaoshou shook his head.
He used the sword-drawing method. The sword light slashed horizontally in a circle, but failed to converge into a forward slash like Gu Qingyi did.
"Maybe I can do Ji Dao and stuff like that, but I can't do it now..."
Gu Qinger:? ? ?
What do you mean you know it but can't do it?
"Could it be that Brother Chen is that kind of expert? He used to be very powerful, but now he has forgotten the knowledge of ancient swordsmanship. I just mentioned it casually and you remembered it?" Gu Qing'er thought of the time when he was punished by copying sword scriptures and fishing. , I watched the Swordsman in Chinese with my junior brother.
"Well..." Xu Xiaoshou was stunned, as if he could really understand it. He hesitated and said, "Why doesn't it count?"
Gu Qing'er immediately had veins popping up on his forehead, and his fists clenched tightly, making a crackling sound.
Damn it...
I really want to beat him to death!
"Receiving a grudge, passive value, +1."
Gu Qing smiled when he saw it. It seems that only people like Chen Shu can cure people like the second junior brother who are out of touch.
"Brother Chen, I would like to take the liberty to ask who you studied under?" he said.
"Southern Territory Feng Family."
"Who is the Feng family?" Gu Qingyi was rude this time and was really presumptuous, "But senior Feng Tingchen?"
"No." Xu Xiaoshou shook his head, obviously understanding what Gu Qingyi was thinking, "I actually learned from a deceased senior of the Feng family, and I got the inheritance from his ruins. I am a self-proclaimed heir of the Feng family, and I am not recognized. .”
Gu Qing'er couldn't stand hearing it anymore and complained: "Brother Chen is so powerful. He can definitely return to the Feng family and he will definitely be recognized. If they don't recognize it... that's even better!"
Gu Qing'er seemed to have thought of something, his face was bloodshot and his heart was racing, "Brother Chen can come to my sword burial mound to practice. When the ten years are up, he will fight back to the Feng family and a whole wave of sword immortals will return... ..”
Snapped!
"Hey~"
Xu Xiaoshou was dumbfounded.
Isn't this guy a bit of a loser?
"Hey, shut up, shut up..." Gu Qing'er quickly retreated under his senior brother's cold eyes and headshot.
But he obviously couldn't hold back anymore and he stretched out his bubbling head again, "My senior brother wants to ask Brother Chen, what is your master's name... This is what he wants to ask, Not what I thought."
Snapped!
Gu Qing drew down his sword one by one.
Gu Qing'er twisted his waist and dodged like a snake, and shouted loudly: "He was just waiting for me to ask, he is so arrogant!" Gu Qing's face turned dark.
Xu Xiaoshou almost didn't laugh out loud. He calmed down his emotions and said modestly: "Wandering around the world, I have made no achievements.
, mentioning the teacher's name is insulting to the family tradition, so it is inconvenient to inform. "
Gu Qing sighed, with a pity in his eyes. His junior brother was right, he really wanted to know.
Gu Qing'er was stunned when he heard this, his face turned pale, and he clenched his fist tightly again.
hateful!
This again!
You have understood "Sword Qi" all at once, but you still haven't made any achievements?
This is not called "humility", this is called "hypocrisy", just like senior brother and master...hypocrisy! Extremely hypocritical!
You are clearly humiliating me, Gu Qinger!
But when he thought that this was a lifesaver, Gu Qinger couldn't take action.
He could only clenched his fists and circled angrily, using his senior brother's body to block Chen Shu so that he would not see Chen Shu, lest he actually hurt his savior.
But after enduring it for a while, the more I thought about it, the more angry I became.
"Tsk!" Gu Qing put his two fingers together, pulled up his senior brother's back robe, and cut off a corner.
