Chapter 548: Friendly
There is no sun or moon in the mountains, and the years are unknown.
After practicing for an unknown period of time, Xiao Feng stood up and looked at the jade token in his hand. He scratched his head while practicing, but no matter what, he felt a suffocating air lingering in his chest and could not integrate it.
The practice of swordsmanship pays attention to the four aspects of state, qi, spirit, and soul. State refers to the state of mind and artistic conception, just like when Nie Yun practiced Fanyun swordsmanship, he must first understand the four artistic conceptions of calmness, peace of mind, concentration, and peace of mind.
Qi refers to the sword energy, true qi, and magic power. Only when the true qi and magic power are integrated can the sword moves be completed in one go and have infinite power.
Spirit refers to the charm. If it has a form but no spirit, it is just a flower frame. It is useless to practice for many years!
Soul, needless to say, naturally refers to the soul. Only when the soul is fully integrated into the swordsmanship can the power be greatly increased. According to Nie Yun's practice of the Brahma Cloud Swordsmanship, it is because the soul is fully integrated into the swordsmanship that he forgets himself and performs the nine styles. Otherwise, with his eyesight, how could he do such irrational things and be envied by others?
The four aspects of the swordsmanship, state, spirit, and soul, are indispensable. Although Xiaofeng is smart, it is still difficult for him to completely integrate the swordsmanship so quickly and perform it.
"How are you? Have you understood it? Can you perform it?"
After performing it several times with the long sword, Xiaofeng felt something was wrong. He looked at Zitong and others who had opened their eyes.
Zitong and other beasts, after being tempered by the Qi of Creation, have long broken through the shackles of the Supreme and reached the secret realm. Judging from their figures, Zitong is a tall and strong man, Xiaohu is a young man, and Heiyan is dark all over.
At this time, the remaining three beasts also frowned, scratched their heads, and scratched their faces. Without explanation, they knew that there was no progress in swordsmanship.
"We have been practicing for eight days in total, and we haven't even mastered the simplest swordsmanship. It's really too much!" Seeing the expressions of the other three beasts, Xiaofeng shook his head.
"It's not our fault. Elite swordsmanship is a swordsmanship that can only be practiced by elite disciples. What is the cultivation level of elite disciples of the Sword God Sect? Each of them has reached the immortal realm. It takes them several months or even years to practice a move. It's really difficult for us to master it in eight days!"
Hei Yan snorted, his voice was muffled.
"Hei Yan is right. This set of swordsmanship is too complicated and profound. I have been looking for this so-called artistic conception for so many days, but I can't sense anything!" Zi Tong also shook his head.
"Don't look at me. I haven't practiced it either. It's too difficult. If you ask me what swordsmanship to practice, it's better to use claws to grab it. It's fast and practical..." Xiaohu blinked his big eyes.
"Hey, I don't want to practice either, but have you noticed that the gap between us and the master is getting bigger and bigger..." Xiaofeng sighed.
Among the four demon pets, Nie Yun first received Xiaohu, but Xiaohu was too young to understand anything. Xiaofeng was a wolf king of the generation and had the highest cultivation, so he became the well-deserved leader of the four beasts.
Hearing Xiaofeng's sigh, the remaining three beasts showed ugly colors on their faces.
Indeed, I used to fight side by side with the master. Since arriving at the Fuyao Continent, the master has been like a fish in water and has made rapid progress, while the beasts like me have almost stagnated. In many battles, let alone helping, I am afraid that we will die directly if we encounter them.
"The master wants us to practice swordsmanship, just to make us stronger and help him. Now we are useless..." Xiaofeng continued.
"It's not that we don't work hard, this swordsmanship is really too difficult. Let alone us, even if it's the master, I think it's amazing that he can practice two sets of swordsmanship in the past few days!" Xiaohu said.
"That's not necessarily true. The master has a great talent and a deep understanding of swordsmanship. Perhaps he has already mastered more than a dozen sets!"
"More than a dozen sets? Two sets a day on average? That's unlikely! Even if the master's talent is very strong, the artistic conception of each set of swordsmanship is different. He can change into several artistic conceptions a day... It's terrifying to think about it!"
Zi Tong and Hei Yan nodded at the same time.
The realm, qi, spirit, and soul of swordsmanship training are four things. To practice a set of swordsmanship, you must comprehend a different artistic conception. Even if you are very talented, it's not possible. Just like the Fanyun swordsmanship practiced by Nie Yun, which emphasizes calmness, peace of mind, concentration, and concentration, and the Duxin swordsmanship practiced by Ye Jianxing emphasizes determination of mind, which are completely two concepts.
"Then let's make a bet and see how many sets of swordsmanship the master can practice in the next few days? How about it? I'll go first. I think the master can only practice two sets!" Xiaohu is a child at heart, and he smiled.
"Okay, I bet the master can practice ten sets!" Zi Tong nodded.
"I bet the master can practice eight sets! One set a day, no more, no less!"
"My idea is similar to Heiyan's!" Xiaofeng also nodded.
The monsters were used to being free and undisciplined. When they heard about the bet, they all joined in.
"Well, whoever guessed the closest will win. The loser will be beaten ten times if he is short of one set of swordsmanship. How about that?" Xiaohu said the rules.
"Okay..." The beasts agreed at the same time. Just as they were about to continue talking, they saw the boy who had been sitting there watching the jade card suddenly stood up.
"Look, the master has started to test the swordsmanship. Let's count and see how many sets he can perform!"
Seeing the boy take out the Nether Sword, his mind was focused, and the eyes of the four monster pets all lit up.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
As soon as the voice fell, the sword in the boy's hand moved, the sword energy was like a river, continuous, the magic power was surging, and the sword wind formed a huge circle, squeezing all the four monster pets to the edge of the venue.
"One set... two sets..."
"Three sets...four sets...five sets..."
"It's so powerful. I can perform five sets of swordsmanship in the blink of an eye. The master is so powerful..."
"Eleven sets...twelve sets...should be almost there, is there more..."
The more the four beasts are counted, the uglier their faces become. It is conceivable that once the exact number is actually counted, the number of punches they will receive will be a terrifying number... ………………………………A palace built against the mountain at the funnel mouth of Yaoyou Valley.
The great elders who came to supervise the trial were all sitting around a huge round table.
On the round table is a long jade sword, seven or eight feet high, crystal clear and shining with a warm brilliance.
"Elders, this is the [Soul Seal Jade Sword] I brought from the sect. It can reflect the results of everyone who participated in the trial, so that we can judge the results of this trial in advance!"
A slightly thin young man in a robe on one side of the round table said with a smile.
This young man looked to be in his thirties. He was not here when many disciples were arranged to enter Yaoyou Valley before the trial. It seemed that he had just arrived not long ago.
If Nie Yun saw him here, he would definitely recognize him. It was none other than the elder named Zong An who he saw when he was encircling and suppressing the Poison King, and he was Zong Yan's uncle.
