245, [Sword Pond, Sword Maniac]
On the stage, the Wu Hou, who claimed to be the descendant of Jian Chi, was the closest to Lu Xun.
Because Lu Xun flew down from the high platform, just... snatched the stage from Wu Hou.
Therefore, the two were on the same stage.
After Wu Hou took a few steps forward, he was not too far away from Lu Xun.
And the reason why he could take a few steps forward was very simple, because he urged his sword heart.
Among the seventeen people, he had the lowest cultivation and barely entered the initial stage.
Converted to the level of the game character, he was only level eleven.
Not to mention Lu Xun, it is estimated that Xiao Chan'er could easily solve him by suppressing his cultivation.
Wu Hou, as the one with the lowest cultivation, was the only one among the seventeen challengers who had a sword heart.
As mentioned before, Jian Chi was a sect in ancient times. As a former holy place of swordsmanship, the purpose of Jian Chi was to sharpen the sword heart.
This sect is very strange, and the requirements for the sword heart are even higher than the cultivation.
Like this Wu Hou, although his cultivation is low, his sword heart is indeed well polished, even more transparent than Ye Sui'an when he was in the first realm of great perfection!
It seems that Ye Sui'an was not as good as him in sword heart when he just entered the first realm.
"It seems that this person has a good talent in swordsmanship, but his cultivation aptitude is relatively poor." Lu Xun came to a conclusion in his heart.
No wonder I never heard of Jianchi Wu Hou when I was playing games in my previous life. People like this have to endure a great late stage.
If he can endure to the great late stage, with his swordsmanship achievements, he will definitely be a generation of influential figures among sword cultivators.
But if he can't endure the great late stage and his cultivation realm can't be improved, then in terms of comprehensive strength, it's actually just like that.
There is a saying called "one force defeats ten skills", which means that a person with great strength can beat ten people who are good at martial arts.
If this person is only a practitioner of the third or fourth realm, no matter how well he polishes his sword heart and how high his sword will be, he can't bear the overwhelming spiritual power of the great practitioners of the seventh realm.
Moreover, if the cultivation level cannot be improved, the upper limit of the sword heart and sword will be affected.
"Since I haven't heard of such a person in my previous life, I think he probably didn't make it." Lu Xun guessed in his heart, but didn't make a direct conclusion.
And he just divided the power of the small sword in the sword heart into seventeen parts. Now there is only one Wu Hou left. If he wants, Lu Xun can directly knock the bronze sword in his hand away with Wu Hou's cultivation level that has just entered the initial realm.
Your sword heart is indeed good, better than Ye Sui'an, but still worse than mine.
Just looking at Wu Hou who was struggling to move forward, Lu Xun thought about it and did not increase the difficulty for him. Instead, he just silently controlled the small sword in the sword heart to see how far this so-called successor of the sword pool could go.
The reason why he did this was because this person was sincere and sincerely asked for advice, and Lu Xun had a good impression of him, that's all.
…
…
Time passed by, and Wu Hou had already changed from holding the sword with one hand to holding the sword with both hands.
The bronze sword without a sword tip moved forward slowly, which was very difficult.
The audience present only needed to use a little brain to see that Lu Xun had spare strength and he did not increase the difficulty.
Shen Yan and others watched with a smile, and they were so proud in their hearts.
In their opinion, the performance of the junior master can be said to be perfect.
Not only did he show his strength and edge, but he also showed his appreciation for talent at this moment.
Look at the young practitioners under your door, who has the strength and demeanor of our junior master?
If the occasion had not been too formal, Shen Yan and the others might have laughed out loud.
Oh, my old face, how can it be so impressive?
On the stage, Wu Hou's coarse cloth gown was soaked with sweat. His forehead wrinkles were deep and his skin was rough. At this moment, even the blue veins on his forehead were extremely obvious.
Many muscles on his body trembled slightly, but his hand holding the sword was very steady, very steady.
Without a roar, just a muffled groan, this man in coarse cloth and extremely rough skin began the final sprint.
Around his bronze sword, a very faint breath appeared.
Lu Xun felt this and couldn't help laughing.
On the high platform, the elders of Yijian Mountain and Wanjian Mountain couldn't help but frowned, and were horrified.
"Sword intent!"
"He actually comprehended the sword intent!"
Although this wisp of sword intent was very faint, much fainter than when Lu Xun first had the sword intent, it was also the sword intent!
A person who spent five years to cultivate to the initial stage actually developed sword intent!
These two elders from the holy land of sword cultivation had never seen such disciples in their own sects.
What surprised them most was that the sword intent used by this Wu Hou was of a very bad grade!
It can be said to be one of the worst sword intents they have ever seen.
It was because it was bad enough that they were surprised enough.
Just like when everyone wrote for the first time when they were young, some people might write beautifully for the first time, while others would write ugly.
People with high sword aptitude will have a relatively clear sword heart when they first develop a sword heart.
When they first comprehend the sword intent, the sword intent will be relatively advanced.
And those with poor aptitude can only comprehend it barely, and the grade will be much worse if they comprehend it reluctantly.
Then, everyone's previous guess was wrong. This person not only has a bad aptitude for cultivation, but also a poor aptitude for sword aptitude!
Lu Xun did not look down on him because of this, but instead looked up to him.
The hands of Wu Hou holding the sword were covered with calluses.
The coarse cloth gown he wore was very old.
His skin was rough, and it was obvious that he had experienced a lot of wind and sun before he achieved success in cultivation, and it has not been improved by the nourishment of spiritual power until now.
He was the first person to stand up and insist on asking Lu Xun for advice under the demonstration of the disciples of the Demon Sect.
He did not even hesitate for a second.
He performed the ancient ritual, holding the long sword in his hand, begging for advice.
This is not a sword pool, this is a sword maniac.
When this faint sword intent was generated, Wu Hou took several steps forward in a row, and rushed forward with a firm look in his eyes.
It was only a few steps away from the so-called three feet around Lu Xun!
At this moment, Lu Xun moved.
He directly removed the power of the small sword in the sword heart.
Lu Xun put his two fingers together, and a sword energy was generated from his fingertips.
In fact, with his current strength, this Wu Hou, he can kill with one sword!
But after the sword energy was generated, he also displayed his sword intent.
Like smoke and fog, it lingered around the sword energy.
——Mist sword!
The artistic conception of his sword was too different from that of Wu Hou's sword.
The difference between heaven and earth!
One was high above, higher than the mountain.
The other was struggling underground, covered in mud.
The sword energy collided with the sword energy, and the sword intent entangled with the sword intent.
Just a face-to-face, Wu Hou flew backwards and fell off the ring.
His sword energy and sword intent were so vulnerable in front of Lu Xun.
He used up all his skills, but he couldn't even block Lu Xun's casual sword.
Not to mention that Lu Xun could still display the sword formation.
"You lost." Lu Xun said calmly.
He admitted that this was a competition.
He didn't say this to the other sixteen people.
Wu Hou touched the ground with both hands and got up with difficulty.
There was blood flowing from the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were bright.
He coughed several times, spat out a mouthful of blood, then held the sword with both hands again and lifted it up, just like when he asked for guidance at the beginning.
Wu Hou said in a deep voice: "Thank you for the sword!"
"Jian Chi Wu Hou, I'm grateful for your guidance!"
Lu Xun returned the greeting with the scabbard in his hand, and said in the same way:
"Lu Xun of the Demon Sect, I'm grateful for your guidance."
Win beautifully, lose gloriously.
However, Lu Xun really didn't think too much about it. His idea was extremely simple:
"There is no reason to look down on an ordinary person who is running wildly."
