Eternal Sword

Chapter 406 Sitting in a well and looking at the sky
"What a great 'Return of the Swallow' move!"

"Huanhua Sword Technique, it's 'Flying Swallow' Yan Shu!"

Before the man even landed, many martial artists recognized his sword skills and guessed his identity.

But everyone couldn't help but feel suspicious.

Even the people from Langya Pavilion and Taohuawu hadn't taken action yet, so why was Yan Shu from the Huanhua Sword Sect so anxious? In full view of everyone, she rushed directly to the martial arts field and blocked Su Mu behind her.

Judging from the posture, it seems that she is not protecting someone else, but her own lover.

"Why, you guys want to come together?"

Xia Yuanxian said calmly: "I can give you this opportunity."

"Okay!"

Yan Shu sneered and said, "Let's use our two swords together to see how many moves you can take!"

"Yanshu."

Su Muzhe quickly stood up, called Yan Shu, and shook his head, saying, "No need to fight, I lost."

Yan Shu was unwilling to give in, but still came to Su Muzhe, passed on a wisp of internal energy, and helped him walk down the martial arts field.

Seeing this scene, Old Lady Su snorted coldly and slammed the ground heavily with the dragon-headed cane in her hand!

Su Muzhe sensed some movement above the Langya Pavilion, but did not dare to look up.

Yan Shu saw his embarrassment and said softly, "You take good care of yourself. I'm going back."

She was about to leave when Su Muzhe's eyes flashed with a struggle, and he suddenly grabbed her wrist.

"Brother Su..."

Yan Shu murmured softly, surprised and happy.

Su Muzhe held her wrist tightly, as if afraid that she would leave. He mustered up his courage and looked upwards towards Langya Pavilion, as if he was swearing something.

Seeing this scene, many younger generations of Langya Pavilion looked away and dared not say a word.

Even Pavilion Master Shen Yuanlin didn't dare to look at Old Lady Su's expression and pretended to be deaf and dumb.

Ye Taoyuan sighed inwardly.

Old Lady Su had some grudges with the founder of the Huanhua Sword Sect, and she established a family rule in her early years that all members of her branch of the Wuzhou Su family were not allowed to have any relationship with the women of the Huanhua Sword Sect!

Judging from the postures of Su Muzhe and Yan Shu, they have obviously violated the Su family rules.

However, no one could have imagined that there was another reason why Old Lady Su was so angry.

Yan Shu felt happy, proud, and worried.

When she was wandering around the world, she met Su Muzhe by chance and they had secretly decided to spend their lives together.

However, due to pressure from the Su family, the two dared not make their relationship public and could only do it in secret.

Even when meeting in public, neither of them dared to say too much. They just pretended to look at each other casually from time to time, and then quickly looked away once their eyes made contact.

Su Muzhe kept asking her to wait a little longer, but she kept putting it off.

It would be a lie to say that she had no resentment in her heart.

But she didn't expect that Su Muzhe would be so bold under the watchful eyes of everyone!

If Langya Pavilion wins today's battle, Old Lady Su might be happy enough to let them go.

If they lose, they'd better prepare to elope.

In the third battle, Shen Zhiyuan appeared on the side of Langya Pavilion.

Many people have noticed from Xia Yuanxian's move just now that his horizontal kung fu has reached the level of enlightenment!

Almost in an instant, all the pressure fell on Shen Zhiyuan.

Old Lady Su had no intention of paying attention to Su Muzhe and the others at the moment, and just asked, "Zhiyuan, how sure are you?"

"I...tried my best."

Shen Zhiyuan hesitated.

"Zhiyuan, in this battle, you must win and not lose!"

Old Lady Su wanted to say this, but when the words came to her lips, she paused, worried that putting too much pressure on her grandson would be counterproductive.

"The situation at Langya Pavilion is not good."

"Who would have thought that Xia Yuanxian was hiding so deeply."

"Don't worry, everyone. In the past, some of the geniuses on the ranking list have defeated those at the Awakening stage with their Inner Dan stage."

"But Shen Zhiyuan is only number eight on the list after all."

Amid the discussions of the crowd, Shen Zhiyuan stepped onto the martial arts arena empty-handed.

Those who are familiar with him know that his sword is with him.

It’s just that it is usually hidden and not easily revealed.

"It's not too late for you to admit defeat now."

Xia Yuanxian spoke in a calm tone, but his words were extremely arrogant.

But this time, no one laughed at him.

Shen Zhiyuan shook his head and smiled, saying, "It's still uncertain who will win or lose."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yuanxian had already taken action.

He took a step on the ground, his movements were as fast as a ghost, and in an instant he came in front of Shen Zhiyuan, with a flash of knife!
Almost the same moves, the same start.

hum!
The sound of Qingyue's sword sounded.

A soft sword appeared out of thin air in Shen Zhiyuan's hand.

when!
The swords clashed and sparks flew everywhere.

Shen Zhiyuan took advantage of the situation and retreated half a foot, creating distance again. He swung the sword in his hand, drawing a series of sword moves in the air, like a dragnet.

This soft sword in his hand is like a sword but not a sword. It is more like a giant brush. He uses his internal energy as ink to write big words in the void!

Some of these words are so profound that they can be seen through the paper.

Some are like dragons and phoenixes dancing, unpredictable.

Some are as flexible as a dragon and snake, while others are as strong and beautiful as iron painting and silver hook.

At first, Xia Yuanxian could still rely on his ghostly body movements, sharp sword, and the power of the awakening state to continuously smash the words in the void, rushing forward and crushing everyone along the way.

But as time went by, the words became more and more numerous and were arranged in an orderly manner according to some special rules.

Xia Yuanxian could easily defeat it with just the handwriting alone.

But once these words were arranged together, they formed an extremely powerful force, like an invisible cage that trapped him and made it impossible for him to escape!

Only a small number of people can tell from memory that these words arranged together are exactly "Linhe Xu"!
Old Lady Su is a congenital warrior herself. Although she is old, her energy and blood are declining, and her fighting power is not as good as before, her eyesight is still there.

She noticed the changes on the battlefield and was pleased. She praised repeatedly: "Zhiyuan, this kid, has already comprehended the "Linhe Preface" to this level? Not bad, not bad!"

"Linhe Xu" has a total of 324 characters, corresponding to 324 sword moves.

Each character can be broken down into different variations depending on its strokes.

In this way, the sword moves in "Linhe Xu" actually have thousands of variations!

But if one only comprehends to this level and becomes familiar with and masters thousands of different sword moves, he is still only grasping the surface of "Linhe Xu".

If one could figure out how to transform the 324 sword moves into calligraphy again and copy "Linhe Xu", and draw on the power of this famous work throughout the ages, then one would be able to comprehend its essence and charm!
The first level is to learn calligraphy, comprehend sword moves, and comprehend martial arts.

The second level is to return from sword moves to calligraphy.

The third level is the unity of book and sword.

Shen Zhiyuan has obviously reached the second level.

Ye Xuan and Ye Taoyuan looked at each other and understood.

It seems that the previous page of book has greatly improved Shen Zhiyuan.

Su Muzhe couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw this scene: "I didn't expect that Brother Shen has already comprehended this truth. With his current strength, he must be better than me."

"The eighth place on the list is a bit low. After this battle, he is expected to be in the top three!"

Han Yue was also amazed when he saw the fight between Shen Zhiyuan and Xia Yuanxian. He exclaimed: "As expected of a scholar who hides a sword, Brother Shen hides not only his sword, but also his edge and means!"

Liu Yingxiu chuckled, glanced at Lin Mubai with a seductive look, and said, "Looking at this trend, Brother Shen has a chance to win this battle. Brother Lin, what do you think?"

Lin Mubai said calmly: "I don't think Brother Shen has much chance of winning."

On the martial arts field.

Shen Zhiyuan has written more than a hundred words.

With his level of cultivation, this has almost reached his limit!
Every word should be written with inner energy as ink.

In order to complete a complete "Linhe Preface", one must at least reach the perfection of Tongmai realm and open up the Ren and Du meridians.

But these more than one hundred words have already caused great trouble to Xia Yuanxian!
His fleeting movements and the Ten Styles of the Moonlight were completely restricted by "Linhe Xu" and could not bring out their maximum power.

Xia Yuanxian could only rely on his strong body and internal organs to continuously break up the words around him.

But soon, Shen Zhiyuan will continue writing as soon as possible.

In addition to the initial clash of swords, the two had a head-on confrontation.

After that, Xia Yuanxian didn't even touch the corner of Shen Zhiyuan's clothes!
Xia Yuanxian was originally calm and composed, but now he showed a hint of irritation.

"Haha, I thought he was so capable, but he is still trapped in "Linhe Xu" and can't get out."

"What do you mean by training the body and strengthening the internal organs? It's just brute force."

When many martial artists saw this scene, they burst into ridicule again.

There were also many people cheering for Shen Zhiyuan.

"Humph!"

Xia Yuanxian suddenly scolded: "You are a bunch of noisy people who only know the world from afar. You have no idea of ​​my power!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Yuanxian waved his sleeves.

Two round white pill-like things rolled out, turned into a beam of white light in mid-air, shot out, passed through the gaps between the words, and came to Shen Zhiyuan in an instant!
"Sword Ball!"

"Flying sword!"

Above Langya Pavilion, everyone exclaimed in surprise.

This is the method of Master Xuan!
Ye Xuan's eyes fixed.

What my uncle was worried about finally happened.

This Xia Yuanxian is more terrifying than anyone imagined!
This person not only trained his physical body, but also possessed spiritual roots, and at the same time practiced the Xuanmen Flying Sword!

Fellow Xuanwu practitioners!

Master Xuan is good at using flying swords and mysterious arts, but his weaknesses are also very obvious. Once a warrior gets close to him, he can be easily countered.

However, Xia Yuanxian chose to train his body horizontally and strengthen his internal organs, which invisibly made up for this shortcoming!

This is more than just a reflection of talent.

This also means that Xia Yuanxian must be more diligent than anyone else and cannot slack off at all.

To train your body horizontally and externally, you will have to endure ten times or a hundred times more suffering!

This is even more a manifestation of strong will!

Having already mastered the mystical arts and possessing even more powerful killing moves like the flying sword, who would be willing to endure this hardship?

This young man did it!

Shen Zhiyuan sensed the crisis and was shocked.

The change happened too quickly, and he had no time to react. He could only change his tactics temporarily and swung out two swords in succession, barely blocking the two flying swords.

As soon as he relaxed a little, the words of "Linhe Xu" gradually disappeared and collapsed, and could no longer trap Xia Yuanxian!
Swish!
The sharp blade fell from the sky!

Shen Zhiyuan had just blocked two flying swords and swung his sword horizontally, just in time to catch Xia Yuanxian's long sword!

Using these three swords is already his limit!

If it were anyone else on the list, they would probably have died three times!
boom!
The next moment, Shen Zhiyuan felt a sharp pain in his dantian, and was kicked away by Xia Yuanxian and fell into the martial arts field.

The whole place was silent and silent.
