From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 113: Practicing swordsmanship, a breakthrough is imminent

The Seven-Step Sword Style, the original seven sword moves were fixed moves, but this set of sword techniques did not end when practiced to the end, but gave open possibilities for changing moves.

Moreover, the inheritance of this set of sword techniques does not teach these changes.

When Lu Heng was learning this sword technique, the teacher said:
"I'll teach you the seven-section style, but you have to figure out the changes yourself. If everyone's changes are the same, then it's not called a change. The essence of a change lies in the word 'change'."

Therefore, when you practice this sword technique to the end, you have to think of your own way of changing the moves.

"Yan Zheshen" is a trick created by Lu Heng in his previous life.

The changing moves of the Seven-Step Sword Technique required a higher level of control than the subtle level in order to make exquisite changes in the details.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, the changing moves of the Seven-Step Sword Technique require a swordsmanship realm of artistic conception.

Of course, it doesn’t mean that you must reach the realm of artistic conception in swordsmanship before you can practice changing moves.

You can practice changing your moves at any time, but whether you can master it is another matter.

Generally speaking, people who practice swordplay will begin to try changing their moves in the second half of the subtle level, and changing moves is also a sign that swordsmanship has entered the artistic conception level.

Therefore, in the second half of the subtle level, when you are about to enter the quasi-realm of artistic conception, you can practice changing moves, but you cannot use changing moves every time you draw your sword.

In his previous life, Lu Heng had already mastered the "Yan Zhe Shen" move he created, so the last time he fought with the Fuso warrior using a katana, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he realized that the opponent's blocking action could be broken by "Yan Zhe Shen".

Therefore, when he drew his sword, he suddenly came up with a trick called "Yan Zhe Shen". The sword light flashed across the sword, and suddenly turned, cutting the opponent's carotid artery with one sword.

This move was so fast and fierce that it killed the opponent instantly.

He successfully used the "Swallow Folding Body" last time, but after coming back, Lu Heng tried it several times and couldn't perform it every time.

Because the realm of swordsmanship has not reached the artistic conception level, whether the "Yan Zhe Shen" can be used depends on the state of the situation.

Lu Heng’s current swordsmanship proficiency has reached (2750/3000). If he seizes the opportunity to make progress in the next few days, he will have good hope of entering the next level.

So, when Lin Zeyu went back to prepare for the action plan.

Lu Heng was practicing sword skills hard in the training room at Qionghua Tianlu Lake to improve his sword skills.

in fact.

After swordsmanship proficiency reaches (2000/3000), the proficiency level increases very slowly. Sometimes, you can only increase your proficiency by 1 or 2 points after practicing for a whole morning.

This is normal. For every kind of martial arts, the higher the realm, the more difficult it is to improve.

Sometimes, you may even come to a standstill.

However, after Lu Heng successfully used the "Yan Zhe Shen" move, his swordsmanship proficiency began to improve faster.

Every time you successfully perform the "Yan Zhe Shen" move, you will see a prompt indicating your proficiency has improved.

Lu Heng leaped up, stepped on the wall and bounced forward, stabbing out with the Aurora Blade in the Cloud Piercing Style. In his mind, he imagined the situation when he met the sword warrior that day, and imagined an imaginary enemy drawing his sword to block the Cloud Piercing Style, and then changed the sword's edge, used the "Swallow Folding Body" and slashed with one sword.

Clang!
[I have gained some insights from swordsmanship training, swordsmanship proficiency +1]

Successfully used "Yan Zhe Shen" again, and the proficiency increased by 1 point to (2751/3000).
If every use of "Yan Zhe Shen" can improve swordsmanship proficiency by 1 point, then it only takes 249 times to enter the next level.

Lu Heng gathered his strength again and continued to practice.

Since it is still somewhat difficult to perform the changes in moves at the end of the sword, I have to try my best every time I use the changes in moves, which consumes a lot of physical strength.

After practicing for two sessions, I was already a little out of breath.

His swordsmanship proficiency also improved very quickly. In just one morning, his swordsmanship proficiency had already increased to (2836/3000), and he was getting closer and closer to entering the next realm.

Noon.

Li Xiuyun prepared the meal and called to urge her to go back for dinner.

The current practice room was arranged by Lin Zeyu. It is spacious and located right at Qionghua Tianlu Lake, in another building next to the new house.

When it’s time for dinner, all you have to do is go downstairs and take the elevator back to eat.

When returning home.

Discovering that Su Muyu and her daughter were there, Lu Heng quickly greeted them: "Hello, Aunt Su."

"Good good..."

The last time they moved, Su's mother met Lu Heng for the first time. There was no time to talk at that time. They just said hello and went about packing up their own houses.

They happened to be having dinner together today. Mother Su stared at Lu Heng and said, "I often heard Mu Yu mention you before."

Lu Heng laughed and said, "Really? Did Su Muyu say bad things about me behind my back?"

"No!" Su Muyu quickly denied it, then glared at Lu Heng coquettishly.

Mother Su also hurried to speak up for her daughter: "Mu Yu always praised you in front of me. I didn't believe that there was such a good person in the world. I saw it with my own eyes and knew that there really was one."

Li Xiuyun also laughed heartily and said, "Sister Su is really good at talking. My son is good in every way except that he is very stubborn. Sometimes we as parents can't persuade him to make a decision." Mother Su continued to praise, "This shows that Lu Heng has his own ideas. It's good for boys to have their own ideas and be able to make decisions."

After being praised so much, Lu Heng felt a little unconfident.

The two families sat together for a meal and became more and more familiar with each other as they chatted.

Li Xiuyun was a prominent figure in the community and soon became sisters with Su's mother. She even said that they should learn Latin dance together when they have time.

Mother Su was still a little worried about her daughter. After dinner, she took Lu Heng to the balcony and asked:
"Lu Heng, Mu Yu said that she bought the house next door, but how could she afford such a nice house? I'm worried. You are close to Mu Yu, so you know how this house came about, right?"

Lu Heng showed a reassuring smile and replied, "Aunt Su, don't worry. It was indeed bought by Mu Yu. It is an interest-free mortgage, which means a loan with no interest. The monthly loan repayment will be deducted from her salary."

Su's mother was still worried and continued to ask, "But such a nice house, with two floors, how can you afford it with your salary?"

According to her simple idea, her salary is only two to three thousand yuan per month, but if she works hard and overtime, it can reach more than three thousand yuan.

So, after paying the rent, only half of her salary was left, and the remaining half was used for the living expenses of mother and daughter, so she could not save any money at all.

She never dared to imagine in her life that one day she would be able to live in such a big house.

Lu Heng said in a positive tone: "Auntie, don't worry. I remember that someone went to your house to give you a gift last time, didn't they?"

"Yes. Mu Yu said that all the gifts were returned." Su's mother nodded.

"Those people gave you gifts because they hope you can persuade Mu Yu to go to their company, right?" Lu Heng continued to guide her thoughts.

"Yes, that person did say that as long as Mu Yu went to their company, he would give her one million a year, and she wouldn't have to go to work. When there was work, she just had to do it. I think he must be a liar." Su's mother remembered this very clearly.

"That person is not a liar, and the story is true. However, that company is not very good, so Mu Yu signed a contract with Huanyu Security Company. The salary is just as much as that company that poached people, so are you relieved?" Lu Heng said in the most convincing tone.

After hearing this, Su's mother finally breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, Auntie knows you are very capable. If you say it is true, then it must be true. You have to take better care of Mu Yu in the future. She has been bullied outside since she was a child, and she didn't dare to tell me when she got home. When I think of this, I feel that I owe her too much."

Lu Heng hurriedly comforted her: "Don't worry, Auntie, Mu Yuxiang has grown up. Now she can not only protect herself, but also protect you."

Mother Su was happy to hear her daughter's praise, and nodded and said, "Yes, Mu Yu has been filial since she was a child, and has always been a good child. You have to believe in her."

When speaking for her daughter, Su's mother, like other mothers in the world, sincerely hoped for the best for her daughter.

Lu Heng nodded and said, "Okay, I will always believe her."

When the two of them were talking.

Su Muyu saw it and was worried that her mother would say something weird again. She walked out with her lips pursed and said, "Mom, what are you talking about with Lu Heng? Don't say weird things again."

Lu Heng smiled and said, "Aunt Su keeps praising you and saying good things about you."

Su Muyu hooked her mother's arm and said, "The Kyoho grapes are washed. Let's go back and eat them."

When the parents of both sides gathered together to talk, Su Muyu ran to the second floor, pursed her lips and whispered in Lu Heng's ear: "What did my mother just say to you?"

Lu Heng chuckled and said, "Guess."

"Hate it, just say it!" Su Muyu had an awkward expression, afraid that his mother would say something strange.

Lu Heng understood her psychology. The more sensitive a child is, the more worried she is about such things.

Seeing that she was really anxious, Lu Heng whispered to her: "Don't worry. Your mother asked me to take care of you more, and said that you are filial, and also said..."

"What else?" Su Muyu became nervous.

"She also said that you were bullied outside when you were a child, and you didn't dare tell her when you went home." Lu Heng said this.

Su Muyu suddenly froze.

In fact, she knew all these things, but her mother never told her about them.

The wonderful thing about this matter is that even if Su's mother didn't say it, Lu Heng knew it, and he has always known it, since his previous life.

Therefore, Lu Heng has always been very careful to protect her, hoping to give her a sense of security.

Lu Heng had already been carrying out what Su's mother had asked him to do today a long time ago.

Sometimes, the intersection of time is so wonderful.

……

In the next few days, Lu Heng continued to practice the seven-section sword-stepping moves.

The success rate of performing "Yan Zhe Shen" becomes higher and higher as the proficiency in swordsmanship increases.

Basically, you have to use it three or four times before it fails to work.

After three days of practice, by the evening of the third day, his swordsmanship proficiency finally reached (2999/3000).

Although his mother sent him several messages urging him to eat, Lu Heng did not stop practicing. He decided to cross the threshold of the artistic conception level of swordsmanship before going home.
