Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1529 One loss

"Condensing the body, hiding the wisdom, leaving the practice to know, hiding among all living beings."

"The Confucian method of sitting and forgetting coincides with the true meaning of Taoism..."

Looking at Yan Lu, who showed no definite intention in every move, Xiaomeng couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

However, she only glanced at it twice before closing her eyes again - after all, it was not something worth caring about.

The other bystanders also had good eyesight, and at this time they also came to similar conclusions as Xiao Meng.

Among them, the one who has been thinking about it most seriously is Zhao Gao. After all, there is no guarantee that this new lightsaber master will be on the list of the snare soon, so it is better to get to know him early.

"When you are weak, you will become weak, and you will forget your mental skills... strange cultivation, but it is interesting!"

Zhao Gao's eyes flickered slightly, and he was obviously surprised by Yan Lu's strange performance in actual combat.

Zhang Liang looked at ease at this time, watching the anxious battle on the field with a smile, and smiled secretly in his heart:
  "Every time Shengqi makes progress, he has to lock his target and keep surpassing. Just like a person who wants to jump, he must first have a focus."

"But if there is no way to borrow any help...haha, what should we do?"

"Sheng Qi will be strong when encountering strong ones, and will be weak when encountering weak ones with Senior Brother Yan Lu. They are truly a pair of wonderful opponents arranged by God!"

Fu Nian looked at the two people entangled back and forth on the field and couldn't help but nodded slightly and thought:

"Any battle is about winning or losing. If you don't seek victory, you can't attack or defend. Junior Brother Yan Lu is just such a strange person who doesn't fight against the world."

Chu Nan Gong looked at Yan Lu with eyes full of surprise and emotion. He stroked his long beard and couldn't help but praise in his heart:
  "A gentleman has no fight, his light is invisible, he sits and forgets his heart."

"Three realms are actually reflected in one person at the same time. They fit perfectly, making Yan Lu enter an absolute realm of nothingness. It is really rare!"

"Amazing, amazing!"

It should be said that Chu Nan Gong is worthy of the name of a sage. He has the most accurate and comprehensive summary of Yan Lu's current state.

This also explains why all the onlookers were secretly amazed at Yan Lu's performance, but turned a blind eye to Sheng Qi who completely suppressed Yan Lu.

Just being able to fight is really nothing to worry about. Among the people present, there are more people who are stronger than Shengqi than those who are weaker than Shengqi.

The key is the transcendental state displayed by Yan Lu. This is something that ordinary people in the world cannot achieve. It should even be said that few of the big guys present can match it.

But don’t forget that there is also a rookie among the big guys.

The fight scene between Sheng Qi and Yan Lu made Gongsun Linglong a little confused.

Didn’t it mean that the Hanguang Sword Master has never won?
  Why does it look like your strength is okay?
  And this dark man is also strange. Didn't he fight under the pressure of the opponent? Why can't he still win?

Under doubt, Gongsun Linglong turned her head to look for the almighty Chu Nangong again:
  "Nangong, you said that this Hanguang Sword has never won, but it seems that Yan Lu's strength is not bad? And this sword is so special..."

"Haha, I have never won." Chu Nan Gong glanced sideways at Gongsun Linglong and replied with a smile, "But I have never lost either!"

"Ah?" Gongsun Linglong was dumbfounded when he heard this.

What is this operation?
  Neither win nor lose, doesn't that mean...

"Specialize in drawing games?"

"Perhaps Yan Lu is a unique draw master." Chu Nan Gong responded with a chuckle after hearing this.

Sheng Qi on the field was furious when he heard this.

Since he took charge of the giant tower known as the world's supreme, he has been challenging the world's top masters. The more frustrated he becomes, the more courageous he becomes, and when he encounters the strong, he becomes stronger!
  In his world, there are never draws, only wins, and... the next win!
  Of course, this does not mean that Shengqi has never lost.

Of course he has been defeated, and more than once, but every failure will be treated as a test to make himself stronger, and he will try to defeat his opponent again until he truly surpasses the opponent.

For example, back then he was defeated by Gai Nie and imprisoned in the Fang-gnawing Prison. Now he only wants to overturn Gai Nie, so he keeps an eye on him.

Therefore, for Shengqi, there is only victory at that time, temporary defeat and future victory, and there is no draw!

He will not accept a no-lose-no-win outcome!

With this thought in mind, Sheng Qi exerted all his strength and roared angrily. The crimson zhenqi rose up from his whole body, and the bright red sword aura lingered on the broad giant sword blade.

Then, Sheng Qi immediately swung his sword towards Yan Lu with his backhand. His movement was so fast that it was three points faster than before.

Seeing this, Yan Lu no longer dodges blindly, and takes the initiative to greet Sheng Qi with a wave of his hand. His body draws a dexterous arc in mid-air to avoid the giant sword wind, and then cuts the invisible blade towards Sheng Qi's throat.

Sheng Qi's eyes widened. He first leaned back to avoid Han Guang, and then drew his sword and slashed horizontally.

Yan Lu leaned forward to get out of the way of the giant tower, and with the light in his hand, he moved in the opposite direction towards the Sheng Qimian Gate again.

Sheng Qi dodged in a flash and used force to change the trajectory of the sword, hitting Yan Lu vertically.

Yan Lu turned backward to get out of the way, and at the same time, the looming transparent sword blade in his hand suddenly dissipated, and then extended out from the other end of the sword hilt. The posture of holding the sword invisibly changed from forehand to backhand, and because of the sword swinging posture, And Shengqi, whose back was turned to him.

The invisible blade slipped over the chain tied around Sheng Qi's waist, and after wiping out a string of sparks, it returned with no success as Yan Lu fell to the ground.

Sheng Qi took advantage of the situation and raised the giant tower with his backhand, thrusting his sword straight at Yan Lu in front of him.

Seeing this, Yan Lu bent back and raised his hand to hold light. He put his other hand on the end of the sword, using the sword as a support to hold the giant sword that was attacking him. Then he used force to deflect the giant sword. To the side.

Sheng Qi stepped forward, spun around, and struck Yan Lu with his backhand sword again.

Yan Lu immediately turned sideways, jumped up, and dodged the sword just in time. He threw the light sword out of his hand and circled towards Sheng Qi. In the intertwining of light and shadow, it was vaguely visible that the sword hilt had blades in both directions.

Shengqi hurriedly ducked back to avoid the spinning light sword.

Yan Lu finally landed on tiptoes, raising his hand to catch Han Guang as he flew back.

This round of fighting between the two has stopped for now.

Yan Lu stood upright with his sword in hand and looked at Sheng Qi with a smile.

Sheng Qi rubbed his right shoulder, which was constantly swinging his sword, and stared at Yan Lu expressionlessly.

After a few breaths, the intermission ended and the two started fighting again.

But this time, it was Yan Lu who took the initiative to attack.

I saw him rushing forward, holding Han Guang behind his back. Under the light, the clear invisible blade was faintly visible, and he leaned down to kill Ben Shengqi.

Upon seeing this, Shengqi raised a giant tower and stood it in front of him, blocking the way that the lightsaber must pass.

However, when Yan Lu arrived and the Hanguang sword was about to collide with the giant tower, the nearly invisible blade suddenly disappeared like a bubble.

Yan Lu, who was holding a sword hilt in his hand, crossed the giant bridge without encountering any obstruction.

Sheng Qi felt something was wrong, so he immediately changed his tactics and hit Yan Lu with his big sword.

Yan Lu bent his knees and lowered his head to avoid the edge of the sword. At the same time, the light-filled sword blade in his hand appeared again, but it had changed to the other side. From his backhand to his forehand, he directly swung his arm and slashed towards Sheng Qi.

Shengqi immediately took a small step back to avoid the attack.

Before he could counterattack, Yan Lu shook his palm, and the shadow of the double-headed sword appeared again in the light in his hand, and then he came close to him.

The two started a close fight again.

Yan Lu, who used the double-headed sword, showed unprecedented aggression. He used both hands, and the light sword kept circling in his palms. The invisible blade wrapped in the invisible sword energy kept wandering around Sheng Qi. Facing Yan Lu's series of attacks, Sheng Qi was not without the ability to fight back. He only briefly fell into a passive state of being beaten at the beginning, but soon regained the initiative, and the heavy and simple Juque suppressed it again. Containing light.

However, Yan Lu was still the same as before. Although he fell behind, he had no signs of defeat.

In the blink of an eye, the two of them exchanged hands for more than a dozen times.

In the end, Sheng Qi danced the huge palace, and with one move, he picked Yan Lu up.

However, Yan Lu directly stepped on the thick sword spine of Juque with his tiptoes, and used the force to turn over and jump back.

Sheng Qi seized the opportunity at this time, quickly changed his moves, straightened his sword and pursued Yan Lu.

In the blink of an eye, Yan Lu sheathed his sword and fell to the ground, and the edge of Sheng Qi's giant sword was also pressed against his throat. If it advanced even a little further, it would kill him.

When Li Si saw this, he immediately bowed his hands to Fusu and said:

"If the giant tower advances even a little further, it will kill someone. It seems that the outcome has been decided."

After Li Si finished speaking, his face remained unchanged, a gentle smile hung on his lips, and he put away the hilt of his light sword.

Opposite him, Sheng Qi remained expressionless. With a cold face, he also withdrew the giant sword that was pressing against Yan Lu's throat and carried it on his shoulders.

At this time, a sharp-eyed Confucian disciple pointed to the ground between the two and whispered:

"Hey! Look, it's the word 'benevolence'!"

When the other disciples heard the sound, they immediately looked to the ground and found that it was indeed the case. There was a sword mark on the ground with the word "Ren" written in seal script.

"Really, it really does!"

Hearing the sound, Shengqi lowered his head and glanced at the ground. He stared at first, and then his face darkened.

He now understands why Yan Lu was so proactive in the last round of fighting. It turned out to be to induce him to draw the word benevolence with Ju Que.

But what really annoyed Shengqi was not that he was induced to carve this Jin, but the result of this battle.

What he pursues has always been a victory that completely overwhelms his opponent, rather than using the power of the giant tower to suppress the opponent for a while.

In such a competition, he didn't even force the enemy to go all out, leaving the opponent with room to make such a move... If he didn't win, it was a loss for him!

Li Si saw this and spoke hurriedly:

"When it comes to sword competition, the important thing is the result!"

"Based on the current results, Master, this second competition..."

Li Si wanted to achieve this outcome by winning seven times to avoid another accident.

Although the result was indeed Shengqi's victory, Gu Xun's previous high praise for Shengqi made Li Si very wary and worried that he would go astray.

Although this game would be a draw at most, Zhang Liang had already tied a game by chance before. If it were a draw again, the scene would be a bit ugly.

The most important thing is of course the outcome of the third game, but no matter how beautifully Xiaomeng won in the third game, she was also an expert invited by Fusu himself, and the people who played in the first two games were all people in the net. He is a member of Li Xiangguo.

Mr. Li, that is also a decent man!

How could such a disgraceful thing be allowed to happen!
  Facing Li Si's inquiry, Fusu pondered for a moment and then said:
  "Both of them are among the best in the world, and their abilities are equally matched. It's really eye-opening."

"As for who is the winner in this round...Teacher, what do you think?" Fusu chose to ask Gu Xun.

Gu Xun shrugged and kicked the ball back:

"You have the final say on this matter, you decide."

"But judging from the performance of this game, it is reasonable for whoever loses."

After hearing this, Fusu pondered for a long time, looked around at everyone in the hall, and made the final verdict:
  "Before the sword debate started just now, I emphasized the key points of the competition."

"In the life-and-death fight just now, Shengqi did it right to the point. From this point of view, he is slightly better."

"What do you think?"

Of course, Li Si didn't have anything to say about winning seven.

Fu Nian had no objection. He bowed his head and responded, "Young Master's comments are fair and well-founded. Little Saint Xianzhuang is convinced."

With the result in hand, Sheng Qi had no intention of staying at Little Saint Xian Manor. He picked up the giant sword and walked directly outside the kendo hall. After taking two steps, he suddenly paused, turned his head and glanced at Yan Lu, and said coldly:

"In my practice, I have failed many times, but every time I will become stronger!"

"Next time, the only winner between you and me is life or death!"

After saying that, Shengqi left directly.

Yan Lu had no intention of arguing about this. He bowed his hands towards Sheng Qi's retreating back and replied politely:
  "I've learned a lesson from you."

………………

On the outskirts of Songhai, inside the Tooth-gnawing Prison.

Thief Zhi looked at the seawater flowing towards them, sniffed his nose, and then said with a stiff face:
  "Sea water... So is this Tooth-gnawing Prison really soaked in water?"

"Zhang Han actually flooded us with water!?"

"This follower really has no creativity at all!"

When Thief Zhi was escorted in, his sight was blocked, so he didn't know the specific location of the Tooth-gnawing Prison. However, he was awake, so he could still collect some information with other senses.

This allowed him to determine that the location of Fang Prison was near the sea.

Gai Nie silently estimated the time in his mind and immediately reminded:
  "It's very close to the next high tide, let's go!"

Upon hearing this, Thief Zhi immediately responded, "I know the location of the exit, follow me!"

After saying that, he told the cook next to him, "Run faster!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he ran out immediately, with Gai Nie Weizhuang galloping quickly, followed closely behind, and the cook Ding was the slowest and the last one was behind.

Listening to the sound of running water getting closer and louder behind him, the psychological pressure of the cook Ding who kept lagging behind also continued to increase. Finally, under the pressure, he roared and gave in. He held back his breath and held on tightly for his life. He swung his two thick short legs.

Under the pressure of squeezing his potential, he actually followed Tao Zhi and others for a while, running towards the exit.

But even so, they still couldn't escape the turbulent water that was pursuing them.

At first, the water only covered the soles of their shoes, then gradually overflowed the shoes, then submerged their ankles, and finally covered half of their calves, and continued to rise.

Fortunately, the exit was not far away at this time.

Thief Zhi jumped back and forth between the walls on both sides. In a few blinks of an eye, he nimbly climbed over several stairs and came to a long and narrow corridor.

A dazzling white light can be seen at the end of the corridor, making it difficult for people to see what is going on there. It seems to be sunlight coming in from the outside world.

Thief Zhi kept the white light on, "That's the exit!"
