Zongwu: Yue Lao System, grab Huang Rong

"You want to see the Dugu Nine Swords, but unfortunately, I can't even use one sword. I'm ashamed! Ashamed!"

"Little girl, can you tell me what kind of swordsmanship that is?"

Huang Rong thought for a moment and said truthfully, "The Exorcism Sword Technique."

"Evil-Repelling Sword Technique?!"

Feng Qingyang's eyes shone brightly, like two sword beams in the moonlight. "Is this the Exorcism Sword Technique that Lin Yuantu of the Fuwei Escort Agency used to dominate the martial arts world?"

Huang Rong nodded slightly, but did not reveal a word about the disadvantages of the Sword of Exorcism or why she was able to learn it without any harm.

After all, this is related to the "Liang Yi Xian Jing" and even if a clue is leaked, it may cause unnecessary trouble.

After being with Li Yu for a long time, Huang Rong has become much more cautious than when she first entered the world of martial arts.

Feng Qingyang sighed, his tone full of regret, but he did not get to the bottom of the matter, nor did he ask Huang Rong for the Sword Manual of Exorcism.

In fact, he already knew why he lost.

The Dugu Nine Swords uses the weak to defeat the strong, and specializes in attacking the enemy's weaknesses. It emphasizes the principle that "where there is a move, there is a flaw", and the Exorcism Sword Technique is of course no exception.

However, the Exorcism Sword Technique was too fast. Even if there was a flaw, it would disappear in the blink of an eye, leaving him no chance to seize and exploit it.

How could he win in this case?

"I see. Don't worry, young lady. This secret has come out of your mouth and into my ears, and no third person will know it."

Feng Qingyang made a promise and then gave Huang Rong the Dugu Nine Swords as promised.

Huang Rong's talent was already ranked first among all the women, and she was far ahead of others. With the Bodhi seeds given to her by Li Yu, it was not difficult for her to comprehend the Dugu Nine Swords.

Two hours later, the white dragon chariot slowly descended the mountain.

At this time, the clouds and rain between Li Yu and Tie Xinlan had stopped, and after this incident, the "Liang Yi Xian Jing" finally evolved into a mid-grade heavenly grade.

This means that Li Yu will soon be able to advance to the middle stage of Grandmaster naturally, without having to rely on talent and time to grind it out.

After the two sides met, Li Yu carried the unconscious Tie Xinlan to the room to rest, and then asked about the battle just now.

The girls chattered at once, their words full of praise for Huang Rong and the Bi Sanxie sword technique, as well as resentment towards Li Wuyu for giving Yue Lingshan the "Jade Girl Sword Engraving".

They had followed Li Yu for so long, but they never knew that he had such superb painting skills, let alone asking Li Yu to paint their portraits.

For a moment, the carriage was filled with the smell of vinegar.

Li Yu felt a headache for a moment, and quickly assured them again and again that he would draw as many pictures as he wanted for each of them in the future, and only then did he make the girls happy.

At the same time, from their words, Li Yu also roughly understood the process.

Li Yu was not surprised that Feng Qingyang lost to Huang Rong.

Although the Dugu Nine Swords and the Exorcism Sword are one good and one evil, the former was created by the Sword Demon Dugu Qiubai and is extremely popular.

But in the hands of someone of similar realm, below the Martial Saint, the Dugu Nine Swords is really no match for the Exorcism Sword Technique!

I remember that at the end of the original novel, Linghu Chong relied on the Dugu Nine Swords to defeat all the enemies, and there were few opponents in the world.

But when he saw Lin Pingzhi perform the Exorcism Sword Technique for the first time, he was also shocked. He thought that his Dugu Nine Swords could not break it, and he had to go back to Huashan's Cliff of Repentance to ask Feng Qingyang for advice.

When Linghu Chong became famous throughout the world, Lin Pingzhi, who had mediocre talent, was still a weakling. However, because he ruthlessly stabbed himself, his strength caught up with and even surpassed Linghu Chong!

This shows how powerful the Exorcism Sword Technique is.

Of course, if Feng Qingyang faced Lin Pingzhi, he would most likely be able to defeat him easily.

But at the same time, Huang Rong is not comparable to Lin Pingzhi.

Putting aside their respective swordsmanship, Huang Rong is no worse than Feng Qingyang in any aspect.

Including combat experience!

You know, although Feng Qingyang has the advantage of age, he has been living in seclusion in the back mountains of Huashan for many years. He hasn't fought with anyone in who knows how long. He is no longer familiar with fighting and does not have much advantage in fighting with Huang Rong.

Therefore, Feng Qingyang's defeat was understandable.

Huang Rong walked up to Li Yu, her delicate face full of confusion: "Brother Yu, I feel that this sword technique is extremely extraordinary, far beyond the Exorcism Sword Technique, and Feng Qingyang has studied it for a lifetime, so his attainments are definitely not low, but why...?"

"Why can't you even use a sword today, right?"

"Exactly."

Li Yu smiled slightly: "You can feel the extraordinary nature of Dugu Nine Swords. This is not an illusion, because its purpose is extremely high."

"And the reason why you feel that the Dugu Nine Swords is nothing special in Feng Qingyang's hands is for two reasons."

"First, the concept of the Dugu Nine Swords is just a vague concept, pointing in a direction but lacking sufficient, concrete methods for implementation. It's entirely up to those who come after to understand it."

h "Secondly, Feng Qingyang's own talent and martial arts limit its power."

U “That’s why you have doubts.”

Huang Rong was thoughtful after hearing this, but soon she had more questions.

Facing Li Yu's gaze, she shook her head.

Li Yu considered his words carefully and said, "Dugu Qiubai is a pure swordsman. He used his life's insights to divide swordsmanship into five levels: sharp sword, soft sword, heavy sword, wooden sword, and no sword."

"The swordsman is fierce and powerful, indestructible, pursuing pure sharpness and showing his brilliance."

"Soft swordsmen are flexible, agile, and swift. They pursue extreme speed, and their sword techniques are complex and fast."

"The heavy sword is thick and heavy without a sharp edge, and its great skill is not artificial. Its sword technique returns to its original simplicity. It can overwhelm the enemy with its momentum and break all methods with one force."

"A wooden sword is not bound by objects, free from the constraints of weapons. Grass, wood, bamboo, or stone can all be used as a sword."

④ “Those without swords should abandon their swords. Man and sword become one. Man is sword, sword is man. No sword is better than having one. Snapping the fingers, wielding the hands, plucking flowers and leaves, all are sword energy.”

⑻ "From existence to non-existence..." Huang Rong pondered, "The Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes that no moves are better than moves. There must be a close connection between the two."

Li Yu nodded and said, "This change between 'having' and 'not having', in a narrow sense, means that no moves are better than moves, and in a broad sense, no sword is better than a sword."

Er "In other words, the two are the same, but the latter is a sublimation of the former, reaching the origin."

"That's why I said that although the Dugu Nine Swords is only the first level of the swordsmanship realm that Dugu Qiubai, at the tender age of twenty, wielded with a sharp sword, roamed the martial arts world, its purpose is extremely high, almost reaching the pinnacle of swordsmanship."

"However, Dugu Qiubai was still young at that time. Although he could glimpse some of the true meaning of the pinnacle of swordsmanship, he was unable to perfect it."

"Because he lacked sufficient experience and understanding, he was unable to leave behind a path to the pinnacle. After all, he himself had not reached the end of the road at that time."

"However, Dugu Qiubai was truly a brilliant man, and he grasped the direction of the future. That's why the Dugu Nine Swords emphasizes 'no moves' and 'sword intent'."

Huang Rong recalled the two essential points of Dugu Nine Swords.

No moves are better than moves: Every move and every style has a traceable path. If one can understand the sword principle of "no moves are better than moves" and apply it, the sword technique will naturally be ethereal and elusive, making it impossible to grasp.

233 The key is the sword's intention: The Dugu Nine Swords has no moves, which can make it elegant and graceful, but also clumsy and ugly, and equally powerful. The key is that it focuses on the intention, not the moves.

"No, intention..." Huang Rong had a vague feeling, but she could never completely see through the confusion.

Li Yu had no way to deal with this.

Not to mention Huang Rong, he himself has not reached the level of getting to the core. It's okay to talk about it now, but it's a long way to go to put it into action.

Huang Rong thought for a moment and said, "I understand! The principles explained by Dugu Jiujian are very powerful, but it is extremely difficult to truly achieve them at this stage."

"Even Dugu Qiubai himself at that time couldn't achieve the ultimate, it was like a castle in the air."

"In other words, if the brain only has a vague understanding, how can the hands learn even less?"

Li Yu nodded: "So this sword technique is not easy to limit the grade. The specific strength depends entirely on the person. It can be very weak or very strong."

Huang Rong asked again, "Brother Yu said that Feng Qingyang's talent limits the power of Dugu Nine Swords. It must be because of his lack of understanding. But Rong'er doesn't understand the limitations of his martial arts."

Li Yu smiled and said, "Rong'er, the Dugu Nine Swords can free practitioners from the constraints of internal strength, right?"

Huang Rong said truthfully, "Yes. The Dugu Nine Swords fully demonstrate the art of transformation, and it is profound and subtle."

"Because those who can master it are all extremely intelligent. The smarter and more flexible they are, the easier it is for them to see the flaws in their opponent's moves, thus anticipating the enemy's moves, taking advantage of their weakness, and striking first, thus defeating the enemy with a single move."

"It can be said that the smarter a person is, the more powerful their swordsmanship will be. Those below the Saint Realm can even defeat their enemies regardless of their level!"

Li Yu nodded, not surprised.

Below the Saint Realm, there is certainly a gap between the nine adjacent great realms, but it is by no means insurmountable.

In the martial arts world, there are not many people who can kill enemies above their level, but there are definitely quite a few.

Especially those lucky ones who have unique skills, killing ordinary warriors without inheritance is like slaughtering pigs and dogs.

In the original novel, during the battle at Yaowang Temple on a rainy night, Linghu Chong, despite having no internal energy and being seriously injured, was able to use the Dugu Nine Swords to blind fifteen Songshan School's best fighters, which shows its power.

You know, those dozen people combined were able to beat up the entire Huashan Qi Sect, including the Grandmaster Yue Buqun!

Li Yu asked, "Then Rong'er, Feng Qingyang is at the same level as you, so why can't he see your flaws?"

Huang Rong said without hesitation, "Because the Exorcism Sword Technique is too fast! Even if there were flaws, he wouldn't be able to see them with his eyesight, and even if he did, he wouldn't be able to grasp them."

Li Yu agreed: "So, the Dugu Nine Swords is only somewhat unrestrained by internal force, but it does have its limits after all."

"And the way to make up for it is to learn a profound internal skill. Once your internal strength is strong, you can observe other people's moves from a high vantage point, and naturally find many loopholes."

Huang Rong clapped her hands and laughed, "Ah, yes! Just like Zhang Wuji on Bright Summit. He was extremely lacking in combat experience, but after learning the Nine Yang Manual and the Great Shift of the Universe, he relied on his profound internal energy to easily defeat all the major sects."

Li Yu added, "It's obvious that Feng Qingyang didn't have the same opportunities as Zhang Wuji. His skills are mostly still at the Earth level. The reason he became a Grandmaster was because of his talent and time."

"Yes, if Feng Qingyang practiced the Nine Yang Manual, he would definitely be able to find the flaws in Rong'er's Sword of Exorcism, and the Dugu Nine Swords would come in handy." Huang Rong understood.

The women standing by listened to the two men's questions and answers but were unable to get a word in.

Only then did Sun Xiuqing ask, "Husband, since swordsmanship is divided into five levels, should we also switch to using soft swords and wooden swords in the future?"

Li Yu burst out laughing when he heard this.

Seeing Huang Rong also laughing, Li Yu asked, "It seems Rong'er knows?"

Huang Rong puffed out her chest and said proudly, "Rong'er, of course I understand!"

"Sharp sword and soft sword are just metaphors. They don't mean we should actually use those types of weapons."

"The so-called 9 sword technique 4 first 9 level sharp sword ㈧ actually refers to sharp and strong ⒉, one forward." lin⊙㈤※:

"The same is true for the second to fifth levels, representing swift transformation, returning to nature, not being stuck in material things, and the unity of man and sword."

"No matter which level you are at, the most important thing is understanding. Reaching that level is the key."

"For example, a swordsman who is not bound by objects can handle a sharp sword with equal ease. He can lift a heavy sword with ease, or a light sword with ease. It all depends on a single thought."
