Chapter 80: Understanding the Intention of the Sword

The purple-scaled golden-maned beast is equivalent to a powerful person at the level of the Divine Refining Martial Sect, and the range that its divine consciousness can cover is limited.

Luo Xiu pushed his speed to the extreme, and shadows appeared wherever he passed, making it difficult to distinguish his true body.

Despite this, his speed is still not as fast as that of the purple-scaled golden-maned beast. This terrifying monster can cross hundreds of meters in one leap, ignoring any obstacles, causing big trees to fall and rocks to collapse.

"Xuantian changes!"

Luo Xiu suddenly activated his secret technique, and his speed increased in an instant. With a swish, he opened some distance between him and the purple-scaled golden-maned beast.

Kuai Jian Jue itself is a special force-generating technique, and when applied to body techniques, it also has the magical effect of increasing speed.

At this moment, coupled with the increase in Xuantian Transformation, Luo Xiu's explosive speed in an instant is comparable to some of the more powerful God Refining Martial Sects.

However, after the burst of speed, Luo Xiu felt his energy and blood fluctuate, and his head felt dizzy. This was because the Xuantian Transformation put a certain load on his body.

However, he no longer cares about so much at this moment. If he is caught up by the purple-scaled golden-maned beast, he will definitely die.

A moment later, in Luo Xiu's perception, the distance between him and the purple-scaled golden-maned beast was getting farther and farther, and it seemed that the terrifying peak-level fourth-level monster had given up on chasing him.

The purple-scaled golden-maned beast already possesses spiritual intelligence. When it first chased Luo Xiu, it was only interested in this fast prey. When it discovered that this prey ran away very quickly, other prey took advantage of this. Opportunity has escaped very far.

So the purple-scaled golden-maned beast gave up chasing Luo Xiu and turned to chasing other prey.

The purple-scaled golden-maned beast is obviously not that stupid to give up more other prey in order to eat one prey.

Luo Xiu also thought of this, and felt a little lucky in his heart. He did not dare to stay where he was, and kept the fastest speed, trying to stay away from this area.

Unknowingly, the sky was getting brighter, and Luo Xiu also felt that his cultivation level was somewhat depleted, so he found a hidden place to recover.

Take out two formation disks from the storage ring and throw them out. They are the fifth-level hidden formation disk and the defensive formation disk.

The formation plate, also known as the formation device, is a treasure that is sacrificed by the formation master. The formation is engraved on it. Even warriors who do not understand the formation can use the vitality stone to activate it.

For safety reasons, Luo Xiu directly used the fifth-level formation disk.

He obtained the treasure house left by King Bu Chenwu, which contained many level 5 formations, but there were no offensive formations.

Half a day later, Luo Xiu returned to his peak state. He took out the simplified map of the Guanlei Mountains and found that he had entered the deep hinterland of the Guanlei Mountains after escaping last night.

Here, you may encounter terrifying monsters above level four at any time. At the same time, Luo Xiu also found that his location was very close to Guanlei Temple.

After putting away the formation disk, Luo Xiu walked cautiously towards the Guanlei Temple. He was not walking very fast, and his senses were emitted every moment. Once he found the aura of a powerful monster, he would immediately avoid it and go around it. .

After nearly a day passed, Luo Xiu felt a sharp and sharp aura coming towards him.

Not far ahead, there is a mountain peak only a few hundred meters high. On the top of the mountain, there is a temple, which is the Guanlei Temple.

With Guanlei Temple as the center, within a radius of about ten miles, everywhere is filled with the aura of sharp blades. In this area, you can see criss-crossing ravines everywhere, and some traces that have existed for an unknown number of years. , sometimes emitting terrible murderous aura, which makes people intimidated.

Here is a place where a strong man named Guan Lei quietly cultivates. Luo Xiu doesn't know what level of cultivation that Guan Lei is, but he can leave such ancient ruins and still has the terrifying sword intention after countless years. Liu Shen is at least a strong man at the level of Wujun, right?

Looking closely, Luo Xiu did not see any other warriors near the Guanlei Temple. After hesitating for a moment, he stepped forward.

Luo Xiu's forward speed was not fast. He was only in the outer area at the moment. Although the sword's intention was sharp, it had no impact on him.

However, as he went deeper, the sword intent that came towards him became more fierce and sharp.

There are no monsters near Guanlei Temple. They are probably afraid of the sharp sword intent here, which makes the monsters in the forest subconsciously think that there is a powerful hermit cultivator here.

Suddenly, Luo Xiu's footsteps suddenly stopped, and the shadow sword behind him trembled violently, as if there was an invisible sword, striking towards his head.

"Qiang!"

The war sword was unsheathed, and Luo Xiu swung his sword to slash the air in front of him. The black sword light was as fast as lightning.

A figure seemed to appear in Luo Xiu's mind, holding a sword. A terrifying murderous aura erupted from his body, and he slashed out with one strike.

"Kick, kick, kick..."

Luo Xiu took three steps back, his face turned slightly pale.

Just now he sensed a sword coming towards him, which was actually an illusion caused by the artistic conception retained by the sword's intention.

The artistic conception has transcended the scope of ordinary martial arts. Luo Xiu is still far away from condensing and mastering his own martial arts artistic conception, so in the artistic conception confrontation just now, he lost instantly.

At the same time, Luo Xiu noticed that not far ahead, there was a blue rock with a knife mark on it.

The sword intent he felt just now was transmitted from the sword marks on the rock.

"The sword's intention leaves a mark?"

Luo Xiu's pupils shrank and he stepped forward again.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in his mind again. The sword was slashed out with an unyielding will, as if time had stopped in an instant.

"I can't stop such a knife!"

Such thoughts suddenly appeared in Luo Xiu's consciousness, and he instinctively wanted to retreat. He took three steps back just now because he could not face such a knife.

But this time, Luo Xiu resisted the idea of ​​retreating. Under the pressure of this unyielding sword intent, his face became paler and he felt like he couldn't breathe.

So strong!

Luo Xiu was shocked in his heart. If someone really used such a sword, he would be killed instantly. No matter how fast his sword was or how exquisite his movement was, because that unyielding sword intention had already Lock him completely, making it impossible to avoid him.

boom!

Because Luo Xiu did not retreat, the knife seemed to have really hit him, causing a sharp pain in his mind, followed by a mouthful of blood spurting out from his mouth.

After vomiting blood, Luo Xiu's face became even paler, but he still did not retreat. The scene of that knife kept reappearing in his mind, especially the indomitable will, which gave him some vague insights.

With a slight flick of his wrist, the Shadow Sword jumped out of his hand. He closed his eyes and slashed out with the sword. The air in front made a tearing sound, and the black and white sword light surged out, letting the sharp pavement come. All the sword intent was forced to dissipate.

Luo Xiu suddenly opened his eyes. The sword he just made can be said to be an imitation of the sword that contained unyielding will. Although it was an imitation, it was more advanced than the three sword moves recorded in the fifth-level martial art of Aurora Sword Technique. powerful.

Luo Xiu felt a little excited. If he could understand the mystery of sword intention, transcend the scope of swordsmanship, and step into the level of swordsmanship, his strength would be upgraded to a higher level?

However, Luo Xiu also knew very well that he was still far from understanding the meaning of the sword, and imitating the sword was just a form, without its meaning.

After calming down, his joyful mood was like pouring cold water on him. Imitation of others was undoubtedly the wrong path. What he really wanted to do was not to imitate, but to learn by analogy to understand his own swordsmanship.

And he is far from reaching the level of swordsmanship. The first thing he needs to do is not to try to understand the mystery of the artistic conception of martial arts, but to improve his swordsmanship from the realm of Dacheng to the realm of perfection.

The realm of martial arts, like cultivation, is one step at a time. If you have the idea of ​​​​understanding the sword's intention directly from the swordsmanship and entering the swordsmanship, you will go astray. You must proceed step by step and practice the swordsmanship to perfection first.

After having this idea in his mind, Luo Xiu continued to walk towards the rock where the knife mark was, and the scene of the knife strike kept reappearing in his mind.

The closer he got to the knife mark, the more terrifying the unyielding intent contained in that knife became, as if his soul was about to be torn apart.

Immersed in this state of enlightenment, Luo Xiu swung the shadow sword in his hand from time to time. Under the pressure of this sword intention, his swordsmanship realm was gradually improving.

Finally, Luo Xiu walked up to the rock and reached out to touch the knife marks on the rock.

Vaguely, the indomitable will became clearer and clearer in my mind, as if there was a blood-stained figure looking up to the sky and roaring in the heavy rain, refusing to succumb to fate.

"Martial intention, is it the fusion of mental state and martial arts?" Luo Xiu seemed to have some realization.

He is only fourteen years old and does not have such a state of mind. His swordsmanship has also not reached a perfect level, and he cannot integrate his state of mind into his swordsmanship and transform it into sword intent.

After understanding the meaning of the sword and drawing parallels, what Luo Xiu gained the most was that he had some understanding of the artistic conception of martial arts and experienced it himself.

The state of mind requires experience, and Luo Xiu is young and has too little experience. It is not because of his lack of understanding.

At this moment, Luo Xiu's eyes widened and he felt a terrifying aura sweep across his body.

He raised his eyes and saw a figure in purple flying across the sky. The fierce sword intent near Guanlei Temple had no effect on this person at all.

This was a man in purple clothes, and it was this man's consciousness that just scanned Luo Xiu.

"A boy in the innate realm who dares to come to Guanlei Temple to understand the meaning of the sword is very brave."

The man in purple just glanced at Luo Xiu lightly, then put his hands on his back and headed towards the Guanlei Temple at the top of the mountain.

Looking at the leaving figure of the man in purple, Luo Xiu breathed a sigh of relief. Being able to fly in the sky near Guanlei Temple was at least a powerful existence at the level of King of Martial Arts.

If Guanlei Temple is divided into three areas, then Luo Xiu is only in the periphery, then the central area, and finally Guanlei Temple.

The deeper you go, the stronger the sword intention will be. There is also great danger in it, because when you feel the sword intention, if you cannot resist the pressure of the sword intention, your soul consciousness will collapse and your soul will be scattered.

The man in purple just now probably came here to understand the meaning of the sword, and went straight to the Guanlei Temple at the top of the mountain. His martial arts realm must have reached an extremely high level.

Luo Xiu was not the first warrior to come near Guanlei Temple to understand the meaning of the sword, so he was only glanced at by the man in purple and stopped paying attention.

Continuing to walk forward, the oncoming sword energy became more and more fierce, and the sword energy appeared out of thin air, like dense raindrops, shrouding Luo Xiu.

Every sword energy was deadly. Luo Xiu concentrated on it, and the shadow sword in his hand flashed quickly, crushing the sword energy into pieces.

One after another, some people came to the vicinity of Guanlei Temple, including innate martial arts masters, god-refining martial arts sects, and even martial arts kings.

"ah!"

Suddenly, a scream came from the foot of the mountain. The head of a strong man in the realm of the God Refining Martial Sect suddenly exploded into a mist of blood. The headless body fell to the ground on its back, dying.
