Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1438 Why do you still carry a fast and slow knife?
In a test of exactly the same specifications, the Red Flame Sabre, which unleashed all its power to slash with flames, cut through the armor, but was still a little short of completely cutting through the wooden stake behind it.

However, the blazing blade in front of him was directly cut through with one sword, and it seemed to be extremely easy. In terms of actual power, it clearly surpassed the flaming slash of the red flame sword!

Of course, this is not the most amazing thing.

The most amazing thing is that this is just an ordinary slash after the Burning Blade triggers the enchantment effect!

Unlike the Flame Slash of the Scarlet Flame Sabre, the enchantment effect of the Scorching Blade is continuous. Simply put, after the enchantment effect is triggered, every swing of the Scorching Blade is equivalent to a Flame Slash!

"General Jie?"

At this moment, Xie Liancheng, whose name was called, did not hesitate. He drew out a sword and strode into the training ground.

Judging from the performance just now, the blazing blade is indeed extraordinary.

But Zhou Xu was only a mage after all, and not a warrior of the same level, so he was not at all inferior in actual combat.

Seeing Liancheng coming in with a knife, Zhou Xu didn't bother to be polite with him at all. He swung the blazing blade in his hand and attacked directly.

The next second, there was another muffled "bang" sound, and the burning hot blade directly set off a scorching and rolling wave of flames, sweeping towards Jie Liancheng.

Zhou Xu knew his own weight and knew he could not hurt Jie Liancheng, so he had no scruples when he attacked.

The flame wave swept over, and the momentum was unexpectedly fierce, as if a flaming cannonball had hit him, causing a hint of surprise to flash in Jie Liancheng's eyes.

But he has the true qi to protect his body, so he doesn't need to be afraid now.

After resisting the impact of the flame wave, the sharp sword hidden in the flames quickly chopped over. Jie Liancheng caught the attack and quickly wrapped the sword in his hand with true Qi to parry.

Otherwise, relying solely on the strength of the sword itself, it would probably be cut off by this sword!
The next second, the weapons of both sides collided. Feeling the high temperature penetrating towards him, Xie Liancheng became more and more certain about his judgment.

At this moment, the edge of the blazing blade took on a golden-red color.

The air around him was about to be burned dry. Even for him, a warrior in the Vajra Realm, he felt a sharp pain when he stared at the sword edge for a few seconds.

During this time, Zhou Xuke didn't have time to think about Jie Liancheng. He just swung the hot blade in his hand and kept slashing.

During this continuous chopping process, the flame waves swept towards Jie Liancheng one after another, allowing this martial arts rookie who didn't even have the cultivation level of the Hundred Refining Realm to fight like a peerless master.

If you don’t know, you would think he is the top powerhouse in the Zongheng realm, because his moves are full of true energy.

Don't say that, don't say that! Holding this blazing blade, this ordinary warrior in the Hundred Refining Realm is probably no match for him!
When using those excellent enchanted equipment before, he had never felt it so strongly. But on this blazing blade, Zhou Xu now fully realized what equipment advantage is!
Zhou Xu was now a little excited. As he became more excited, he stopped slashing around randomly like he did at the beginning. Gradually, he began to use some new moves.

Although his martial arts skills had not even reached the Hundred Refinements Realm, he had at least practiced a few moves.

At this moment, Zhou Xu swung his blazing blade, and Jie Liancheng, who saw the flaw, subconsciously wanted to block and stop Zhou Xu's attack.

However, unexpectedly, in the next moment, the hot blade in Zhou Xu's hand suddenly accelerated. The dazzling golden-red sword blade burned by high temperature was wrapped in blazing flames, and directly drew an arc of light, which startled Jie Liancheng who was trying to parry, and he quickly changed his moves to block.

The next second, taking advantage of the opportunity when the weapons collided again, the frightened Xie Liancheng couldn't help but complain in a low voice.

"Hey, hey, that's too much. Testing weapons is one thing, but why are you carrying a fast and slow sword?"

Zhou Xu looked innocent about this.

"Didn't you say before that the concept of Tai Chi can be integrated into any moves? I suddenly got an inspiration and wanted to give it a try."

"..." My goodness, it turns out that he was the one who dug his own grave?
In addition to using softness to overcome hardness, Tai Chi also has the concept of using speed to defeat slowness and slowness to defeat speed.

According to Jie Liancheng's idea, this concept can be simply described as the fast and slow knife.

In a duel between strong men, the sudden change of speed of moves can easily disrupt the opponent's rhythm. At the same time, the fast and slow fighting style can also make the opponent unpredictable.

On this basis, if you go one step further, you can use the slow knife to expose the opponent's flaws, set traps to lure the opponent into the bait, and then use the fast knife to instantly counterattack the opponent. This is what Jie Liancheng calls the fast and slow knife.

This is the tactic Zhou Xu used just now.

If you think about it carefully, Zhou Xu's bravery is also rated three stars, which can be called excellent, and he is definitely not mediocre.

In addition, Zhou Xu has been practicing Tai Chi for many years to cultivate his body and mind, and his state of mind is in line with the principles of Tai Chi. Apart from anything else, he has already grasped the realm and essence of Tai Chi.

Now, Zhou Xu didn't even need any specific postures or routines to practice Tai Chi. His movements were natural and seamless, and his every move showed the demeanor of a master. Even he felt inferior to him.

At this moment, Zhou Xu was holding the blazing blade in his hand, interpreting the true meaning of Tai Chi with the sharp sword. He actually seemed to be doing it with ease, which shocked Jie Liancheng.

"It's my bad luck today. If it was someone else, I'm afraid they would have lost their lives."

"You are the most powerful general under my command. I know you can handle it, so I let you do it."

"That's right! You are right, come on!"

Obviously, Xie Liancheng fell for this trick and was completely controlled by it.

This also made Zhou Xu become more reckless as he wielded the blazing blade.

Originally, during today's test, Xie Liancheng just wanted to play around, but who would have thought that Zhou Xu suddenly increased the intensity of the game.

He had to control his own cultivation and not hurt Zhou Xu, and it was not an easy task to just counter Zhou Xu's moves, which made him quickly cheer up.

Invisibly, Jie Liancheng was also getting better and better.

Even he himself did not expect that while fighting with Zhou Xu, he had been controlling his cultivation throughout the whole process and unexpectedly improved his moves.

After a round of testing, Zhou Xu asked Li Gan to take the Blade to the side to study it, while he and Jie Liancheng sat in a pavilion nearby to drink tea and chat.

At this moment, Xie Liancheng was sitting there, his hands still gesturing constantly, and it was obvious that he had some insights in his mind.

Then he looked eagerly at Zhou Xu who was sitting next to him.

"Hongxu."

"what?"

Feeling something was wrong, Zhou Xu frowned with a look of disgust.

"I feel like my moves have improved. How about you practice with me every day from now on?"

"..."
