The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 34 Dugu Sword Tomb
There is no doubt that this is the Ziwei Soft Sword!
In the original storyline of The Legend of the Condor Heroes, the sword demon Dugu Qiubai said, "I used it before I was thirty years old, but I accidentally injured a righteous man. I regretted it so much that I abandoned it in the deep valley."

Although this sword is a soft sword, after being infused with internal force, it can be bent or straightened as desired, and is extremely sharp, making it a rare magical weapon.

"What a great sword!" Fang Hao's Qingfeng sword had just broken, and this sword happened to be replaced.

Fang Hao wrapped the Ziwei soft sword around his waist and followed the Divine Eagle into the valley. Soon, the man and the eagle arrived in front of a large cave. Fang Hao knew that this must be the place where Dugu Qiubai lived in seclusion in his later years.

Sure enough, Fang Hao saw three lines of words on the stone wall of the cave.

"I have been active in the martial arts world for more than 30 years, killing all enemies and defeating all heroes. There is no one in the world who can stand up to me. I have no choice but to live in seclusion in a deep valley, making eagles my friends. Alas, I have been looking for an opponent in my life but have not been able to find one. It is really lonely and embarrassing."

And the signature left at the end read "Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai", a few large, vigorous and powerful characters written in iron and silver strokes.

“I long for the relics left by our predecessors.” Fang Hao bowed three times towards the burial place of Dugu Qiubai in the cave, and then, led by the Divine Eagle, came to a cliff.

The cliff was like a huge screen, rising into the sky. In the middle of the cliff, about twenty feet above the ground, there was a large stone, like a natural platform, with the words "Sword Tomb" written on it.

Fang Hao used his Qinggong skills to climb up the cliff and soon reached the platform.

Next to the large stone with the words "Sword Tomb" engraved on it, there is a line of small words engraved "The sword demon Dugu Qiubai was invincible in the world, so he buried his sword here."

"Invincible in the world? What a big tone!" Fang Hao sighed.

However, considering that Dugu Qiubai has already practiced swordsmanship to the level where "grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all become swords" and "no sword is better than a sword", purely in terms of the level of swordsmanship, he deserves the title of "invincible in the world".

Fang Hao dug open the sword tomb and found the first sword in it. It was about four feet long and glowed with green light. It was a weapon similar to Fang Hao's original Qingfeng sword.

This was Dugu Qiubai's first sword, which was said to be "sharp and fierce, indestructible. Before he reached the age of twenty, he used it to fight against the heroes of Heshuo."

Then, there was nothing at the place where the second sword was. Fang Hao knew that the sword that Fang Hao had cut out from the giant snake's body was originally placed there.

The third sword was about three feet long, with a dark blade and a blunt edge. It looked ordinary, but it was Fang Hao's goal on this trip - the heavy black iron sword!
"A heavy sword has no edge, and great skill is not skillful!" Fang Hao sighed softly, thinking of the feat of Dugu Qiubai who, decades ago, defeated all opponents in the world with only a sword, and he yearned for it.

Afterwards, he filled his entire body with energy and gathered it in his palm. Because he was prepared, he easily picked up the black iron sword that weighed seventy to eighty kilograms.

"Buzz!"

As Fang Hao's internal Qi was infused, the heavy black iron sword made a clear sound, and an invisible sharp aura enveloped the sword, making people feel cold all over just by looking at it.

Not only that, Fang Hao also felt a faint magnetism floating on the sword edge. Fang Hao tried it with the Ziwei soft sword and found that it was easily attracted by the magnetic force of the black iron heavy sword. It was indeed magical.

"The Black Iron Heavy Sword is probably quite effective against all weapons, especially hidden weapons." At this moment, Fang Hao had many associations.
After seeing Fang Hao pick up the black iron sword, the Divine Eagle seemed pleased and as if inviting him. It swooped down at him with its left wing carrying a strong wind.

"Brother Diao, are you going to test my martial arts?" Fang Hao casually swung the heavy black iron sword, a simple yet extremely solid strike.

The Divine Eagle blocked with its left wing and flapped its right wing. It had eaten countless snake gallbladders of the Bosuqu snake in the desolate valley. The quantitative change led to a qualitative change, and it almost broke away from the limitations of its original species.

As it moved, it was not only quite methodical, but also swept its wings with a force like a gust of wind, as if the palm winds of several top masters were exerting their combined strength.

In comparison, the "Fallen Flowers Sword" from Peach Blossom Island that Fang Hao had originally practiced was mainly based on "lightness and changeability". It was extremely awkward to use the heavy black iron sword to perform the Fallen Flowers Sword.

Therefore, it didn't take long for Fang Hao to fall into a disadvantage. Fortunately, Fang Hao had eaten a lot of Pusiqu snakes, and his strength had changed compared to before, so he was still able to hold on. The Falling Sword was no match for the Divine Eagle, so Fang Hao used the "Jade Flute Sword Technique", which was as exquisite as the Falling Sword.

When it is used, the sword style is elegant and graceful, and the sword moves are elegant and fancy. Therefore, Fang Hao, who pursues efficiency, does not like to use it.

But his attainments in this sword technique were indeed not weak. Between the movements and stillness, the five swords were released in succession: clear sound from outside the mountain, resonant sound of gold and jade, long cry of phoenix, echo across the tower, and song in the middle of the oar.

But he was still no match for the Divine Eagle's random attacks, which were so powerful that one force could defeat ten skills.

However, Fang Hao has mastered many unique skills in the world, such as the Nine Yin and Nine Yang, and is definitely not an ordinary person.

In the end, Fang Hao actually abandoned all the sword techniques he had practiced with great concentration.

But I feel that the more ordinary the sword moves, the harder it is for the enemy to resist. For example, if the sword is thrust straight, as long as the force is strong, the power is far greater than the Yuxiao sword technique and other strange and changeable sword moves.

Fang Haoru practiced against the Divine Condor for three days and three nights. When he was thirsty, he drank mountain spring water, and when he was hungry, he ate snake gall. Finally, he was able to resist the Divine Condor's amazing strength.

The sword strikes and thrusts, with gusts of strong wind. Forward thrust, reverse strike, horizontal cut, reverse chop, the sword strikes are very methodical.

When one's martial arts skills have reached such a level, it's like climbing Mount Tai and looking down on the world. Fang Hao recalled what he had learned in the past and felt that it was quite insignificant.

The reason for such a drastic change was only the guidance of the Divine Condor, and Fang Hao's understanding played a big role.

This was the first time that Fang Hao comprehended martial arts on his own without relying on his ability to "understand a thousand things after hearing one thing".

Originally, this was not a difficult task. Even Yang Guo in the original timeline only realized the martial arts truth of "a heavy sword has no edge, and great skill does not require effort" during the fight against mountain torrents.

But Fang Hao lived on Peach Blossom Island in his early years. The sea tides rushed and the climaxes came one after another. The sound was like thunder and the roar of dragons and tigers coming from the sky. It was extremely majestic and far better than mountain torrents.

Fang Hao practiced the Bi Bo Heart Method and was also well versed in the martial arts principles of the ebb and flow of the tides and the mountains of white waves.

Every time he drew his sword, it was like a raging sea, fierce and unstoppable. When he defended, the situation was calm; when he attacked, the sky collapsed and the earth split, and in an instant, he would destroy the enemy's body and soul.

Therefore, when Fang Hao used the martial arts principle of "The Rising Tide of the Blue Sea" to control the heavy black iron sword, he naturally realized the black iron sword technique.

When drawing the sword, the lightness, heaviness, hardness and softness are determined at will, and the hardness and softness are mixed into one, reaching a new realm of kendo.

And after he mastered the Black Iron Sword Technique, the Divine Eagle was no longer his match.

Fang Hao knew that the time had come for him to leave the Desolate Valley.

"Brother Eagle, I will come back to see you when I have time." Fang Hao bowed and said goodbye. The Divine Eagle had understood human nature and escorted Fang Hao all the way out of the valley entrance before returning.

Fang Hao, carrying the heavy black iron sword on his back, has been reborn.

"Mu Lingzi, just wait for me!" Fang Hao thought to himself.
