Chapter 373 - Not to be underestimated

He Yanqiu relied on his strong body, and constantly used the long sword condensed by sword qi to stab Zhou Qinglin's big points around his body, and Zhou Qinglin seemed to be proficient in defensive swordsmanship, and the defense of all parts of his body was extremely tight, and it could almost be said that it was leakless.

Xu Haihuang nodded slightly, quite satisfied with Zhou Qinglin's response. Although the Sword Soul Pulse prefers to attack the sword path violently, the ultimate defense should not be underestimated.

The Tao has a wind forest volcano, which is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as aggressive as a fire, and as immobile as a mountain. And the sword dao mastered by Zhou Qinglin obviously belongs to the type of immovable as a mountain.

But if someone thinks that such a Zhou Qinglin has no strong killing means and can only defend, then he is very wrong.

The reason why Zhou Qinglin is like a mountain is because his character is like this, and the sword cultivation method cares about a moment, and any small mistake may bring about a huge change. Zhou Qinglin has constantly trained his kendo to be close to perfection, and when an opponent fights him, once he makes a mistake, he will inevitably attract a fierce counterattack.

The more proficient the monk is, the more he understands the loopholes in his opponent's moves. After a fierce stalemate battle, He Yanqiu had been scared into a sweat by Zhou Qinglin's several tricky counterattacks, if it wasn't for his own reaction fast enough, I'm afraid He Yanqiu would have been defeated.

Although from the perspective of a bystander, Zhou Qinglin's defense was extremely tight, and whether he could bring a fierce counterattack to He Yanqiu, only Zhou Qinglin himself knew how difficult it was to defend He Yanqiu.

He Yanqiu's sword path is not only powerful, but also the sword moves are fast, Zhou Qinglin was able to deal with it calmly at first, but he didn't expect He Yanqiu's offensive to become more and more ruthless, and his speed was even improving.

A faint white mist began to float from Zhou Qinglin's body, which was a natural reaction that had done his best. On the other hand, He Yanqiu, not only his face is as usual, but even his steps and body are still as steady as Mount Tai.

When Xu Haihuang saw this, he already had a judgment. Although the pure sword moves greatly reduced the effect of the competition, it can be seen that He Yanqiu's basic skills are indeed extremely stable.

Although Zhou Qinglin's sword path has been affirmed by many elders in the sword soul lineage, there are still many people who have some different opinions. The ultimate defense is powerful, but such a passive defense will eventually fall behind.

In sword cultivation, there is an unwritten belief that defense is better than active attack. Only by taking the initiative in your own hands can you conform to the style of sword cultivation like breaking through bamboo and overcoming thorns.

The disciples of the Sword Soul lineage who were watching around did have a lot of sword dao to feel good, and they had already sensed Zhou Qinglin's decline, and it seemed that it would not be long before Zhou Qinglin was about to lose.

Although they were a little unwilling, what these young disciples were most convinced of was their absolute strength, so their dissatisfaction and contempt for He Yanqiu also dissipated a lot.

"I lost. Zhou Qinglin put away the sword qi in his hand, took a deep breath, and bowed to He Yanqiu, without the slightest bit of decadence and anger after being defeated.

Although Zhou Qinglin's personality tends to be passive and defensive, it is also destined that he will be difficult to be defeated from the bottom of his heart.

"Your strength is indeed very good, and you are the most powerful person I have ever met. "He Yanqiu naturally won't be stingy with his scratch prize, and Zhou Qinglin also deserves it.

"Very good, Qinglin, you go back first. Xu Haihuang nodded at Zhou Qinglin, although he lost to He Yanqiu, Xu Haihuang did not blame at all. If Zhou Qinglin really defeated He Yanqiu, Xu Haihuang would be a little difficult to do.

Just as He Yanqiu was about to put away his sword and retreat, an old voice suddenly came from his ears.

"Little doll, didn't you exert all your strength just now? Others can't see it, old man, I can't hide it. ”

He Yanqiu's face changed instantly, just by listening to the voice, he already knew who the person who spoke was, because the voice of this old servant was very distinctive, but as far as his eyes could see, there was no trace of the old servant at all.

"Don't look for it, little doll, the old man doesn't want you to see it, so naturally you can't see it. However, the old man did really underestimate you a little before, yes, you are indeed very good, not only is your kendo talent excellent, but even your body is so strong, you are indeed qualified to inherit the inheritance of the Kenshin lineage. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he suddenly sighed, his voice was a little low, and even with a thick sense of helplessness.

He Yanqiu was a little confused, and he didn't know why this old guy wanted to say such a thing, but when someone discovered his secret, He Yanqiu was always a little uncomfortable.

originally planned to hide it, but it was seen through by others, which made He Yanqiu a little uneasy.

Mu Xiu is in the truth that the forest wind will destroy it, how could He Yanqiu not understand, especially in a new environment. Although Xu Haihuang's attitude towards He Yanqiu is not bad, who knows what kind of changes will occur after arriving at the Sword Soul Sect, so it is necessary for He Yanqiu to cover it up, but now it has been recognized by that old guy, which is a bit troublesome.

However, it was obvious that He Yanqiu's worries were a little redundant, and the old servant did not speak again, as if the flowers before were just unintentional.

The flying boat continued to move towards the Sword Soul Pulse Station, and the journey was quite smooth.

Ever since He Yanqiu competed with Zhou Qinglin, the disciples of the Sword Soul lineage had different eyes when they saw He Yanqiu, originally it was just a burst of contempt, but now, it was a strong sense of jealousy and a strong fighting intent.

This feeling was not too difficult for He Yanqiu to accept, and it seemed that there was not much discrimination against the disciples of the Spirit Jade Sect, the Sword Soul lineage.

But there is only one thing that makes He Yanqiu very uncomfortable, that is, he has to follow Xu Haihuang all the time. However, this is not without the slightest benefit, some Sword Soul disciples who have seen He Yanqiu's strength always have the urge to try it with He Yanqiu.

For these disciples who broke the void realm, He Yanqiu naturally did not have the slightest fear, fighting one was a fight, and fighting two was also a fight, but the Demon Suppression Stone caused too much limelight, and it did not conform to He Yanqiu's low-key principle.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the fourth day, and according to the speed of the flying boat, it had already traveled more than a million miles, but it was still half the way to the Sword Soul First Vein Station.

Just when everyone was quiet and carefully cultivating, a sudden news spread throughout the flying boat.

"We were being stalked. Xu Haihuang's face was a little gloomy, but the old servant standing in front of him did not have any panic.

"I don't know who these people are, could it be them?" Xu Haihuang spoke again, his face even more gloomy.

The old servant shook his head and said, "It won't be a person from the Treasure Gathering Sect, but it will look like a person from the Sword Pavilion." ”

Hearing this, Xu Haihuang's expression changed again, and the wood directly burst out with two fine lights.

"Hmph, those people in the Sword Pavilion still dare to follow us? They are too bold, isn't the lesson from last time enough!"

Xu Haihuang directly called Xu Mingren to his side, and then gave a few orders, and then Xu Mingren glanced at He Yanqiu, and then quickly left this ship room.

"Eighty percent of these people in the Sword Pavilion learned the news of the Ming people and their departure from there, and then mistakenly thought that there were only Ming people on this flying boat, but how could they think that I, Xu Haihuang, would be inside. This time, since they took the initiative to provoke, they must be made to pay the price they deserve!" A burst of majestic murderous aura had already gushed out from Xu Haihuang's body, and invisible sword qi continued to stir in midair.
