#243 - Learn it
In the consciousness of Xu Ming and Xu Xuenuo, the old man held his sword horizontally, the sword energy constantly condensing onto the old man's long sword.
The air around the old man seemed to be filled with sword energy.
It was as if anyone who approached the old man even slightly would be cut to pieces.
The old man slashed forward with the long sword in his hand.
This slash was like a simple sword-swinging motion, and it looked so understated.
But the next moment, the sky was gradually being torn apart.
Xu Ming felt that the sky above his head was like a piece of cloth, and the long sword in the old man's hand was cutting a slit in this cloth!
Through this slit, Xu Ming saw a piece of chaos and nothingness behind the white cloth.
But in that chaos and nothingness, Xu Ming seemed to see a palace again.
"Palace?"
Xu Ming was stunned for a moment.
What's going on with this palace?
Could it be that I saw it wrong?
"It's roughly like this sword strike."
The old man turned around, facing Xu Ming.
In the next moment, the sky behind the old man quickly closed, the sky and earth shook, and the red clouds on the red sky all shattered, like cotton, breaking into clumps.
Even though this sword strike had ended and the sky had healed.
This sword strike had cleared a hundred miles of the entire sky, leaving no residue.
Xu Ming had never seen such a sword strike.
This sword strike brought the sword energy and sword intent to their fullest potential.
This sword strike was clean and neat, like a stroke from the heavens.
This sword strike even brought a great impact to Xu Ming's Dao heart.
Xu Ming couldn't help but doubt himself.
He doubted whether he was suitable for learning swordsmanship.
What was the point of continuing to learn his swordsmanship? Could he surpass this sword strike from the old man?
"Learn it."
Just as Xu Ming was in a daze, the old man said to Xu Ming.
"Only by learning it can you leave here alive, and only then will you have the opportunity to rescue us, otherwise, you two children will only be able to stay here and be buried with us old fogeys."
Xu Ming: "."
"What's wrong? After seeing my sword strike, you've lost your ambition?" the old man asked with a smile.
"A little," Xu Ming said honestly.
"Humph." The old man snorted coldly, "It's normal for you to be hit, but if you start to doubt your own sword path because of this, then you might as well die here."
After saying that, the old man ignored Xu Ming and turned to find a stone to sit down.
Looking at the old man sitting on the stone, and recalling the sword strike just now, Xu Ming also mocked himself in his heart.
"That's right, since I've grasped the sword, why should I question the sword in my hand..."
Xu Ming held the long sword in his hand and took a deep breath.
He wasn't in a hurry to swing the sword.
The old man nodded in his heart at Xu Ming's approach.
If Xu Ming wanted to swing the sword immediately after watching his demonstration, it would only mean that he had misjudged him.
Although Xu Ming already had the "sword move" of his sword strike in his mind.
But remembering it in your head and using it with your body are two completely different concepts.
This sword strike only has one chance.
The more powerful the move, the greater the risk.
When you feel that you have understood the essence of this sword strike, unleash it.
If it succeeds, then it succeeds.
If it fails, then it fails.
It is very likely that Xu Ming's consciousness will be directly backlashed by this sword strike, and completely destroyed!
The old man put his hands behind his head and slowly fell asleep.
Whether this kid can use this sword strike, and when he can use this sword strike, no one knows.
In Xu Xuenuo's consciousness, the old man also lay down casually on the ground and started sleeping, waiting for this little girl to comprehend it.
But...
They really don't have much time left.
"Boom!"
A huge Dharma seal covered the old man transformed by sword energy.
The old man held his long sword, the long sword resting on the Dharma seal, using minimal force to deflect a thousand pounds, actually directly deflecting this Dharma seal.
In the next moment, the old man appeared in front of Xia He, thrusting out with his sword.
Xia He didn't dare to resist head-on, dodging sideways, the rock wall behind him was blasted out of a large hole by the old man's sword energy.
Xia He raised his head and spat forward.
A green dragon flew out of Xia He's pursed lips, directly hitting the old man's head.
"What foul breath."
The old man cursed, and with another sword strike, the green dragon transformed by spiritual power was split in two.
But this green dragon was never meant to be a killing move, at most it was just an appetizer before the killing move.
The spiritual power of the green dragon landed, and the Tianxuan Star Formation was fully activated.
Stars hung above the old man's head, and the Four Symbols were clearly visible in their respective positions.
The Tianxuan Sect was originally a Taoist sect, with a deep understanding of the deduction of the Heavenly Dao and the comprehension of the stars.
This Tianxuan Star Formation is the great work of the Tianxuan Sect, improved by the successive sect masters.
It's just that in Xia He's generation, it hasn't been modified much.
Because Xia He doesn't have the qualifications.
"Fall!"
Xia He, who was in the formation, was like a saint in this place, he waved his hand, and a meteor directly smashed towards the old man.
The old man broke open this meteor with fire with a single sword strike, and then, a star on the star shot out a ray of light, pointing directly at the old man's heart.
The old man waved his long sword, dispersing the light of that star, but then came the second, third, fourth, fifth...
The light shot out from the stars seemed to weave into a huge net, directly covering the old man.
"Unexpected and orthodox complement each other."
The old man chanted the sword incantation.
Behind the old man, long swords transformed by sword energy continued to appear, like a halo behind the Buddha.
"Go!"
As the old man pointed with the long sword in his hand, all the long swords pierced towards those starlight.
Sword energy collided with starlight, and loud noises spread in the cave.
From beginning to end, all the old man had to do was buy time.
But Xia He wasn't a fool either.
He felt it was about time.
Xia He took out a glass bottle from his storage bag, the bottle was filled with black viscous liquid.
Xia He opened the glass bottle and poured a drop of black viscous liquid on the ground.
This drop of viscous liquid seemed to move on its own, constantly flowing towards the Tianxuan Star Formation.
When this viscous liquid merged into the Tianxuan Star Formation, the old man frowned, feeling an aura that made him uncomfortable.
And in the next moment, the entire Tianxuan Star Formation was covered by a black swamp mud.
The earth kept shaking.
A pair of eyes opened from the mud.
[Sorry, sorry, I had writer's block yesterday. It's not that I didn't know what to write, but I felt like I didn't know how to develop the plot better.
I sorted it out today, and I feel much better.
I originally wanted to update four chapters today.
But after thinking about it, I still have to play Black Myth on the 20th, so I'll save these two chapters first, and update five chapters tomorrow to pay off the ones I didn't update yesterday.]
