The three-volume heavenly book also contains the art of sword refining and sword control. After Hu Lu learned it, he used some heavenly materials and earthly treasures accumulated over the years to refining the two swords.
The "Hunxu Sword", which was originally only more than a foot long and shaped like a dagger, has been extended to three feet, six inches and a half, which coincides with the sky at 365 degrees. The sword is only two fingers wide, as thin as a cicada's wing, and is as dark as the deep night sky. .
The "Underworld Sword", which was originally more than three feet long, has been condensed and shortened to two feet and four inches, which corresponds to the number of twenty-four qi. The sword body is about three fingers wide. It is still in the shape of an eight-sided Han sword, and is almost light in texture. The yellow surface is covered with naturally occurring mysterious textures.
At this moment, Hu Lu released two magical swords, each with its own mystery. They turned into black and yellow rainbows hanging behind him. They contained infinite sword energy and endless power. Facing the martial arts form of the evolved Buddha, they were at odds with each other for a while.
An old monk wearing a simple gray cloth straight jacket, white beard and wrinkled face stepped out from the crowd and faced Hulu instead of the retreating Xunji.
The old monk clasped his palms towards Hulu and said, "I am a poor monk who has met Taoist brother!"
He cultivated Tongxuan and created nature, and when they met, he was sure that the Taoist opposite him, who seemed to be in his prime, was indeed an expert with good looks and skills as the legend said. His real age may not be younger than his own, and although the other party was He hasn't taken that step yet, but he has already reached the point where he is likely to take it at any time. And judging from the methods shown by the other party, the real combat power may not be much worse than his own, so he uses an honorific title.
Facing the old monk, Hu Lu also put away his previously deliberately frivolous attitude, bowed his head seriously in return, and asked with a smile: "The Zen master calls himself 'Wuming', but I don't know whether it is 'Ming Wu Ming' or 'Ming Wu Ming'" 'Nameless'?"
Wu Ming also smiled and replied: "'Name Wu Ming' is also nameless, and 'original Wu Ming' is also nameless. Why do you need to be persistent, Taoist brother?"
"Otherwise," Hulu shook his head and smiled, "The name 'nameless' means 'wiping diligently at all times to avoid causing dust'; the nameless person means 'there is nothing in the first place, where can the dust be caused'. How can they be confused?"
Wuming sighed: "I didn't expect that Taoist brother and I would have such true knowledge and insights on the essence of Buddhism. I feel ashamed. After practicing for hundreds of years, I can only barely achieve 'nameless', but I still can't achieve 'originally nameless', otherwise I wouldn't be able to enter." The world of mortals is stained with cause and effect.”
Hu Lu pointed at the Shaolin monks such as Xu Jing and snorted coldly: "People say, 'The one who is close to vermilion is red, and the one who is close to ink is black.' Even though these fake monks shave off three thousand troubles and recite 'Namo Amitabha', But all of them have six impure roots and three poisons. How can a Zen master escape from the shackles of the mortal world and the entanglement of cause and effect if he lives with them all day long?"
Wuming smiled bitterly: "The poor monk finally became enlightened through Shaolin's foundation. Since there is a reason, he should bear the consequences."
"So, there's nothing to talk about?"
Hu Lu slowly raised his right hand, stretched out his two fingers to form a sword gesture, and said solemnly,
"Pindao will use some of his own sword techniques to learn the supreme martial art of Shaolin, the 'Tathagata Palm', which is the source of all the arts!"
At this point, he waved his raised finger in front of him and shouted: "Behead!"
The black rainbow formed by the "Hunxu Sword" behind him fell down as he waved his hand, slashing towards the Buddha's image above Wuming's head.
Wuming also raised his right hand with his palm open and his palm facing upwards. The image of the Buddha above also made the same move.
On the "卍" character in the palm of the hand, a slim lotus bud appears to grow slowly and quickly.
The petals of the flower bud bloomed, and in a moment it grew into a golden lotus flower with a diameter of three feet.
The black sword light that penetrated the sky and the earth fell, but it became shorter and thinner, and finally turned into a hair-like line of black light and fell into the center of the golden lotus flower.
Wuming smiled and chanted softly: "One flower and one world, one leaf and one Tathagata, Taoist brother, you..."
Before he finished his sentence, his expression suddenly changed, but black cracks as fine as a spider web appeared on the surface of the golden lotus, and then it shattered into pieces like a piece of porcelain, revealing a three-foot-six-inch-long " The body of Huxu Sword".
This time, Hu Lu smiled, but his words were murderous: "Pindao's sword is about to destroy your world and kill you!"
The long sword slashed towards the Buddha's Dharma in the air. It was silent and there was no trace of the force of the strong wind. It was just that the three-foot long black sword body, as thin as a cicada's wing, disappeared out of thin air with the force of the slash, which looked extremely weird.
At the same time, the disappearing sword suddenly appeared behind the head of Buddha Dharma, and slashed straight down towards the huge head covered with thick buns.
When the sword fell, Wuming felt a warning sign in his heart, and he raised his right palm and pressed it down.
The Dharma image in the air made the same movement, and a faint golden light appeared around him as the palms pressed down.
However, Hu Lu was the first to use his backhand to shake the rainbow formed by the "Netherworld Sword" behind him through the air. The yellow sword light shattered in response to the palm, turning into fine light rain all over the sky and falling one after another, covering both Hu Lu and Wuming.
Wuming, who was bathed in the light rain, underwent extremely strange changes. The movement of turning his palms and pressing down suddenly slowed down ten times, and the protective golden light of the Buddha's Dharma in the air was also generated at the same slow speed.
The speed of the "Hunxu Sword" was not affected at all. The three-foot sword still fell down as fast as lightning. Before the golden light of the Buddha's golden body completely solidified, it swept from top to bottom with no resistance. And passed. Then it disappeared out of nowhere and reappeared at the front of the sword hilt.
The Buddha's Dharma, like the previous golden lotus, first showed black cracks as fine as a spider web on the surface, and then the pieces shattered into nothingness.
After Hu Yuan went through several time travels, these two magic weapons were born with spirituality and magic.
The "Hunxu Sword" has space attributes and now has two magical abilities. One is to travel through the void in a small area, appearing and disappearing, making it difficult to detect; the other is to open up an extremely small hole at the edge of the sword that can be destroyed at any time. Space, in this way, the slashing sword force contains the terrifying power of space annihilation, and it is truly indestructible.
"Netherworld Sword" has time attributes, and now it has only one magical ability, which is the ability to adjust the flow of time within a certain range and within a very short period of time. It can be applied to others as well as to oneself.
It's a pity that the special powers of these two divine swords are quite limited. In addition to the range and time of use, after each use, the swords need to be put back into the jade gourd to warm up for a period of time.
Therefore, Hu Long can only use it at the most critical moment, and the unknown old monk in front of him, who is proficient in martial arts, is obviously worth using this trump card.
After all, the martial arts body of a warrior is different from the Yin Shen body of a monk.
The Yin Shen Dharmakaya is the product of the fusion of the monk's soul and his cultivation. Once it is destroyed, both body and soul will be destroyed.
The martial arts law is transformed by the martial artist dividing part of his soul and attracting the vitality of heaven and earth. Although it will inevitably hurt the deity after being damaged, it is not a fatal injury. And after the soul's cultivation is restored, it can be condensed again.
"The Taoist Master is mighty!"
Shi Jin, who had retreated far away to avoid being affected by the aftermath of this station, saw that Hu Yuan was facing off against a Tongxuan heavenly being and actually had the upper hand. His blood boiled with excitement. At that time, he held up a three-pointed two-edged sword on his horse. Shouted with excitement.
"The Taoist Master is mighty!"
"The Taoist Master is mighty!"
…
The vanguard troops following him responded in high spirits and quickly conveyed the news to the rear.
When the Liangshan troops in the rear, who had no idea what was going on, learned about this, they all cheered up and cheered one after another.
In sharp contrast, Xunji and other Shaolin monks looked extremely sad when they saw that the biggest supporter of their sect to be the leader in the Central Plains martial arts world was shaken by life.
Wuming, on the other hand, chuckled without any shame and sighed: "Brother Dao's sword is good, his sword skills are good, and his calculations are even better. I am ashamed of myself as a poor monk."
Hu Long controlled the two swords to fly back and fell into the jade gourd. He cupped his hands and said: "I am ashamed that my cultivation is not as good as that of the Zen master. I have to use some cleverness to save the situation."
The greatest function of the martial arts is not the increase but the battery life. Warriors in the realm of heaven and man are called "Tongxuan" because they can use the martial arts to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth for their own use. As long as the vitality of heaven and earth is endless, the power of the attack will never diminish.
Hu Long knew that it would be detrimental to him if it turned into a war of attrition, so he made an excuse to learn from the nameless "Tathagata Divine Palm", but he did not give the opponent a chance to use the palm changes. He relied on the mysterious power of the two swords to catch the opponent off guard and kill the opponent in one fell swoop. of the Buddha's Dharma.
Although Wuming is still in the martial arts realm of Tongxuan Tianren, he can only exert his own strength. Hu Long thinks that he still has the strength to fight.
Wuming slowly took off his gray cloth trousers and shoes and socks, folded them neatly and handed them over to Xun Jing who came forward. He clasped his palms together again and saluted Hu Long and said: "I have not moved my hands and feet for decades, but now I meet For a master like Dao Brother, I have no choice but to make an exception. Please forgive me if I offend you later."
Hu Long raised his palms and said with a smile: "It's a coincidence. Although Pindao also knows a few sword skills, the skills he is most proud of in his life are still in these palms. He was about to ask the Zen master for advice."
Having learned the lesson just now, Wuming did not dare to bet whether Hu Long's words this time were sincere or deceitful. At that time, he adhered to the idea of "a lion fights a rabbit with all his strength" and used all his strength as soon as he made a move. Never leave any opportunity for the other party to take advantage of you.
He bowed his shoulders, and his skinny and shriveled body suddenly swelled to a height of three feet. The material of his close-fitting clothes was unknown, but it was not broken. It was just stretched and thinned to fit tightly around the body like a tights, turning the whole body into a tight fit. The bulging muscles and flexing and coiling tendons are fully exposed, and the skin exposed outside the clothes is like a layer of gold, shining brilliantly in the sun.
Except for the white eyebrows and white beard, Wuming is no longer aged at this moment, and he looks like a golden Arhat who has stepped into the world of mortals.
"Good guy, it turns out that the Zen master has achieved the status of Arhat and achieved an indestructible golden body - let's see what a trick the poor Taoist can use!"
Hu Yuan clapped his hands in admiration, and then he bowed with his shoulders. He grew to a length of five feet, and his body was covered with an earthy yellow halo.
After his transformation, he is much taller than his opponent, and he can make his clothes and shoes change along with his body shape, so he is better just by looking at the similarity.
The two giants, who brought a strong sense of oppression to the spectators, rushed forward in unison, each carrying the unparalleled power of internal and external integration and violently collided with each other.
