That night, in the courtyard, Bai Ze lit up the lamp and read the entire book "The Sword Intent of the Great River". He immediately felt comfortable and said to himself: "This "The Sword Intent of the Great River" is really wonderful! Xie Xuan said that the way of swordsmanship is divided into four heavens. , kill people with a sword, talking about sword moves. But after all, he is already a famous sword king in Kyushu, so of course he can despise sword moves. But I have just entered the world, and my cultivation is not as good as the sea of suffering. To me, sword moves are comparable to Sword Intention Sword. The heart is more practical!”
At the moment, Bai Ze took off the edgeless sword and placed it on the stone table in the courtyard. Huangshan unsheathed his sword and practiced the "River Sword Intention" move by move in the courtyard without moving his true energy.
This swordsmanship secret book has a total of nine moves, which are divided into the number of anode changes. There are a total of ninety-nine and eighty-one moves. The peak sword move is the Dahe Sword Intent.
Bai Ze knew very well that he could bite off more than he could chew. Of the Nine Swords of Dahe, he would only use the Rolling Sword style first. During the Qinghe assassination last night, Bai Ze was deeply impressed by Mu Chen's rolling sword move. When the sword rolled out, the sword energy criss-crossed, like a big net, it was really wonderful.
Now he has a contract with the Nine-Colored Spirit Deer. The Nine-Colored Deer in the deer spirit state can activate the emerald, allowing Bai Ze to pass three levels in one go and temporarily enter the other side.
the other side.
Bai Ze's eyes were hot, this sea of suffering was really not a place for humans. From the moment he left Liuzhuang, except for the final battle with the Wang brothers, whenever he met anyone, he was pushed to the ground and hung.
Especially the swordsman in black yesterday. If his target was Bai Ze, Bai Ze would have been killed by him countless times.
Now it is urgent to improve his strength. To put it more seriously, he promised to fight the mountain ghost with the sword fairy Li Mu and retrieve the broken blade without an edge. If he does not improve his strength, let alone the sword fairy who is invincible for a hundred years, any knowledgeable swordsman can kill him. I can't find North.
To put it mildly, now that you are in the arena, fights are inevitable. If you don't improve your strength, you will be beheaded sooner or later.
"The matter of Hiding the Black Snake's Heart in Lingshan must be put on the agenda." Bai Zexin said, "With the strength of the Nine-Colored Spirit Deer, it will be convenient to go into Dushan to find the Black Snake. You may not be able to come out alive, so you can only rely on your ability. ”
After a season of hard training and the opportunity of heaven, the pure Yang Qi in Bai Ze's body has become extremely strong. But before reaching the other shore, the true energy cannot escape the shackles of the sea of suffering and leak out of the body. No matter how strong the true energy is, it is just an internal skill and cannot compare with the exponential damage caused by the true energy leaving the body.
The vortex of the sea of qi in the innate Tao embryo allows Bai Ze to condense the true qi in his body on its own even if he does not practice the "Pure Yang Sutra". Therefore, Bai Ze's cultivation speed is at least twice as fast as those of geniuses from aristocratic families!
Now that he has inherited the mountain ghost's inheritance, he has become more proficient in understanding and refining the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. Not to mention that the mountain ghost's transfer of skills before transforming into a sword spirit allowed him to ascend to the seventh heaven of the Sea of Bitterness overnight.
Bai Ze predicted that if his trip to Hidden Spirit Mountain went well, he would find the mysterious snake and use it as a life and death test. When he obtained the heart of the mysterious snake, that would be the time for him to step onto the other side.
That night, Bai Ze was obsessed with practicing his sword, and before he knew it, the time was like running water, and the night ended at dawn. Those who practice Taoism and practice profoundly may not sleep or rest, nor eat or drink.
Bai Ze adjusted for a moment and sheathed Huangshan. After packing everything, go to Tao Hongjing's place to learn how to make swords. Time passed quickly, and seven days passed in the blink of an eye. Bai Ze didn't know how many times he hit the hammer, and finally he removed one pound of impurities from the ten-pound iron block, leaving nine pounds of iron.
"Teacher, I think so." Bai Ze looked strangely, looking at the old man sharpening his sword on the other side of the sword furnace, and said, "The ordinary iron you are talking about is probably not that ordinary, right? This black gold hammer weighs a thousand catties. I smashed it for nine days, even if I smashed it a hundred times a day, it was still nine hundred times, and only one pound of impurities was removed from this iron block."
Hearing this, Tao Hongjing thought for a while and said, "Fan Tie didn't lie to you, because in my eyes, except for the materials that can be used to cast heaven-level immortal weapons, the rest are all mortal iron."
The sky and earth are dark and yellow, which is the four-divided method of spiritual weapons. Among them, the heaven-level spiritual weapons have surpassed ordinary people's understanding and are already immortal weapons.
For example, the ancient sage Yu Ding made the Jiuding of Jiuzhou. Another example is that when the sage Yu passed by Tushan and married Tushan's daughter, the legendary nine-tailed celestial fox Tushan, the world's best sword, the King Yu Sword, was forged in Tushan by gathering the fortunes of heaven and earth.
Even in the eyes of some masters of weapon refining, King Yu's Sword and Jiuding are no longer any level of spiritual weapons in the Xuanhuang of Heaven and Earth, but are stepless artifacts that are more powerful than the highest-grade heaven-level immortal weapons among the spiritual weapons. .
Bai Ze rolled his eyes and asked Tao Hongjing: "Teacher, where did you get this iron?"
"Ten years ago, I went out to the north and found this iron at a submarine #volcano in the South China Sea, about a hundred feet under the sea." Tao Hongjing polished the sword sharply, put on the sword tang, and said nonchalantly: " Boy, you have to know. At my level, ordinary materials are no longer acceptable. The greatest tragedy in a swordsmith's life is that he has all the skills but can't make a living without rice."
Tao Hongjing threw the newly forged sword into the sword formation next to the sword furnace, walked to the stone table in the courtyard to have tea, and asked Bai Ze: "I heard that you have been practicing swordsmanship these days, how are you doing?" Come and see.”
"You can't hide it from the teacher." Bai Ze looked at Xuan Jin Hammer, walked over, and said, "I got a swordsmanship secret book a few days ago, "Dahe Sword Intent". I have been practicing more in my yard these days."
"'Dahe Sword Intent'?" Tao Hongjing heard the name and said to himself: "Why does it sound so familiar? Oh, I remember it! Isn't this the sword manual of Song Zhiwen, a Confucian swordsman from the Song Dynasty?"
"Confucian Sword Song Zhiwen?" Bai Ze was unfamiliar with this name.
"You naturally didn't hear much about his name when you were in the Yan Kingdom. But when you arrived in the Song Kingdom, that boy was a household name." Tao Hongjing said, speechless, "You have never heard of his name, but let me tell you about another person. You must know."
"Who?" Bai Ze asked.
"The current Kyushu swordsman is Li Muzhi!" Tao Hongjing said.
"Sword Immortal Li Muzhi?" Bai Ze was stunned, "What is the relationship between Sword Immortal and Song Zhiwen?"
"It has nothing to do with shit," Tao Hongjing said, "It's just that in the sword that the swordsman Li Muzhi became famous for, there is a move called Canghai Yiweidu. This Song Zhiwen's grandfather was a shameless master. He shamelessly followed the swordsman to learn it secretly. This move can cross the sea with a reed, but after seven or eight years in a row, I still haven't learned it. The old boy felt ashamed and disheartened, so he went back home. But it was also strange that he didn't want to learn the sword sword move anymore. On the way back to his hometown, he passed by the Lancang River and saw the rolling water of the river. He suddenly had an epiphany and realized the "Great River Sword Intent". From then on, the old man managed to become a second-rate master with this "Great River Sword Intent", and he also became a second-rate master in the northern arena. I think I have made a name for myself.”
"This is really interesting." Bai Ze laughed.
"Bring me the secret book." Tao Hongjing stretched out his hand, and Bai Ze handed him the "Dahe Sword Intent" without hesitation. He looked through it casually and said: "The secret book is true, but this "Dahe Sword Intent" is strong and strong. It is all about Sword Intent. It is considered advanced for you now."
"The three paths of Taoism are Tao Qi, Tao Intention, and Tao Heart. What I cultivate is Tao Intention." Bai Ze put the secret book away and said, "It's a bit difficult, but since I follow Tao Intention all the way, it will be beneficial to me after all. There are benefits.”
"Tsk tsk, not bad, not bad!" Tao Hongjing laughed, patted Bai Ze's shoulder vigorously, and said: "Majoring in Taoism, haha, you are what I like! It's a pity that I didn't meet you first, otherwise I would interrupt you My legs will also take you back to Tianzhu Mountain to become my disciple."
"Teacher is from Tianzhu Mountain?" Bai Ze was secretly surprised. Tianzhu Mountain is the most holy land of Taoism in the North. Just the title of "No. 1" can already block a million divisions from the seven northern kingdoms.
You must know that the temples, rivers and lakes generally do not interfere with each other. Although the northern border is called the Seven Kingdoms, it is only the seven major kingdoms. Living among the seven countries, there are hundreds of small countries, big and small, with lives as small as duckweeds.
If we talk about the seven kingdoms in the north, the Great Zhou reigns supreme. So in the Northern Jianghu, Tianzhu Mountain is said to be second, but no one dares to claim to be first. Of course, this is just an evaluation between Taoist sects. You must know that the Jixia Academy of the Confucian sect of Qi and the Shanmen of the Buddhist sect in the north will not let Tianzhu Mountain sit on their heads to shit and urinate.
"Why, are you willing to go up the mountain with me?" Tao Hongjing asked Bai Ze half-seriously.
"That's not true." Bai Zexin said, if I followed you to Tianzhu Mountain, with Xie Xuan's temper, wouldn't I cut down the peak of your Tianzhu Mountain to use as a seat?
"Then you're asking a stupid question!" Tao Hongjing was somewhat disappointed. With a wave of his hand, seven or eight swordsmanship secret books suddenly appeared on the stone table. The top one was called "Five Elements Sword Manual", and the name alone was very impressive.
"Teacher?" Bai Ze couldn't help but swallow his saliva and looked at the secret book on the stone table.
He lacks nothing now, only this! At the beginning of sword training, the more swordsmanship secrets he read, the broader his knowledge would be, and the more helpful it would be for his future swordsmanship practice. Now Tao Hongjing waved his hand with seven or eight secret books. Although this old man with a messy beard had been forging swords all day long, since he came from Tianzhu Mountain, even if he did not know swordsmanship, his prominent status in the world was there. The secret books he took out, Can it still be a flaw?
Not to mention Mahayana swordsmanship, Zhongyuan, there are always Xuan characters that line up the world, right?
"Want it?" Tao Hongjing drank a bowl of tea, put the bowl down, and pressed it on the "Five Elements Sword Manual". "Come and get it based on your ability." As he said that, he stretched out his hand and saw the sword he had just cast from the sword furnace. The long sword that came out flew over and was held in his hand.
Bai Ze had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Sure enough, Tao Hongjing stood up, walked to the courtyard, stood still, hooked his hand to Bai Ze, and said, "Come on, let me see how you are doing with the "Dahe Sword Intent"! You don't have to worry about destroying anything. There are formations I've set up all around, and with your ability, you can't hurt this place at all. If you can make one move under my hand, take away a sword manual!"
"Just one move?" Bai Ze's unmoved attitude was a lie. He immediately stood up and put his hand on the hilt of Huangshan's sword.
"Can I still lie to you?" Tao Hongjing sneered and said, "You kid, are you coming or not? If not, I will continue to make swords, and I am too lazy to waste time with you."
"Come!" Bai Ze gritted his teeth, unsheathed Huangshan, and came up with the rolling sword style that most excited him in "The Sword Intention of the River".
"Yeah. Not bad." Tao Hongjing watched Bai Ze draw his sword, Huangshan was in his hand, and while his body was spinning, the sword danced like the wind, and he cut it. He said three words, and then the sword didn't even come out, and he kicked Bai Ze in the butt. , kicked him to pieces.
"But that's it, I'm not even qualified to let you use the sword." Tao Hongjing laughed and said sarcastically when he saw Bai Ze falling so hard that he couldn't find his way.
