Chapter 73: A Little Test of the Sword Forest
Chapter Seventy-Two
The Sword Forest is composed of countless flying swords that stand tall or levitate. These flying swords come in different shapes, the short ones are only half a foot, and the long ones are several feet.
In this way, a huge sword forest was formed.
Cultivating in the sword forest, you can fly with a sword, which requires a lot of micro-control of swordsmanship, because if you accidentally hit a suspended flying sword, it is very likely to trigger a chain reaction, and it is not impossible to die in the chaos of the sword.
Of course, it can also just be used to control the sword into the sword forest, which also requires high requirements for the control of the flying sword.
When Mo Shi heard that Xuan Ye was going to compete with Ah Sheng, he couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Heh, Senior Brother Xuan Ye is afraid that he is laughing, what kind of cultivation is Ah Sheng? Why is he competing with you, it's not at the same level at allβ"
Mo Shi said this to remind Ah Sheng that even if he refused Xuan Ye's words, no one would look down on him. Because he and Xuan Ye are not opponents at the same level at all.
However, Ah Sheng didn't appreciate it, he looked up at the sword forest not far away, and asked, "I don't know Senior Brother Xuanye, how do you want to come?" β
"That's naturally what Senior Brother Ah Sheng will do, and he will come whatever he wants. Xuan Ye said with a smile.
"That's good-" Ah Sheng responded, ignoring Mo Shi, who was pulling him vigorously on the side, and said stubbornly: "Just target that sword, whoever stops it first will win, how about it?"
"Yes!" Xuan Ye sneered, he flicked his fingers, and a purple sword qi shot out from between his fingers, hitting a suspended flying sword in the sword forest.
The flying sword shook slightly, and then suddenly moved, flying towards the depths of the sword forest at an extremely fast speed.
"Lest others say that I bullied you-" Xuan Ye did not release the flying sword immediately, but said to Ah Sheng: "Senior brother, I will let you breathe three times, and you control the sword first." β
Ah Sheng silently took out a brocade pouch from his arms, and pulled out a short sword from it.
"This sword was given to me by Lord Gongzun. It is said that it is a flying sword that the first Gongzun once wielded. Ah Sheng's sword finger was raised, and the short sword floated in front of him.
"Since Senior Brother Xuan Ye wants to let it take three seconds, then Senior Brother is not welcome. Ah Sheng's sword finger slammed into the air, and the short sword flew out with a swish, leaving an afterimage in the air.
Xuan Ye was slightly startled, and the speed of Ah Sheng's flying sword was somewhat unexpected to him.
After three breaths, Xuan Ye waved his big hand, and a flying sword came out, quickly chased after him, and flew into the sword forest.
The target flying sword shuttled through the sword forest, and because it was a part of the sword forest, it flew as if it had entered a no-man's land, and all kinds of flashes appeared without the slightest setback.
But it was the first time for Ah Sheng to ride a sword into the sword forest, and every time he had just accelerated, a flying sword suddenly appeared in front of him, making him have to slow down, otherwise he would definitely crash into it.
On the other hand, Xuan Ye did not accelerate or decelerate sharply, but kept shuttling through the sword forest at a relatively balanced speed.
In such a state, Xuan Ye's flying sword quickly caught up with Ah Sheng's short sword and overtook it in one fell swoop.
There was a sigh outside the sword forest, people were not too surprised by such a situation, after all, Xuan Ye's strength was there, not to mention Ah Sheng, even if he was replaced by a stronger person, it might not be much better.
The target short sword flew into the depths of the sword forest, where countless flying swords were suspended, densely packed, each flying sword flashed with swords, if it touched it, the flying swords in that area would attack it in groups.
Xuan Ye also put his speed to the fullest, in this area, it was impossible to catch up with the target short sword. All he can do is try to keep up with it as closely as possible and not lose it.
But Ah Sheng seemed to be stunned, and flew over with a short sword, but there was no sign of slowing down at all.
"Slow down! you don't want your flying sword anymore, and you still want to trouble me?" Xuan Ye scolded in a low voice.
But Ah Sheng didn't care about it, the route he flew with the sword was to follow behind Xuan Ye's flying sword butt, so that he didn't need to think about the route by himself, because there was already a ready-made one.
It's like a horse-drawn carriage entering a dirt road, and when the first carriage enters, it will always be slow and cautious. But the carriage behind it, following the ruts left by the first carriage, could move at a faster speed.
Ah Sheng's short sword slowly caught up with Xuan Ye's flying sword, and it was about to reach the hilt of the sword, of course Xuan Ye would not allow such a thing to happen, he pressed down with his sword finger, and the direction of the flying sword suddenly changed, and he moved a few inches to the side.
Ah Sheng's short sword swooped over, and without the lead of the front sword, the short sword wanted to open up its own route, but it didn't dodge for a while, and slammed into a suspended flying sword.
With a bang, the sword forest exploded all at once, and countless flying swords gathered at the same time, and the black pressure was like a rain of swords, encircling Ah Sheng and Xuan Ye's swords in an airtight air.
"Hmm-" Ah Sheng snorted, and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, which he quickly wiped clean. He glanced at Xuan Ye, and the latter's face was also a little ugly.
Just a moment later, the dense flying swords quickly dispersed, and both Ah Sheng and Xuan Ye's swords fell from the air.
The difference is that Ah Sheng's short sword is still completed, but the sword body has completely dimmed, and a trace of sword qi no longer exists.
And Xuan Ye's flying sword was almost broken into pieces, scattered in the air, and floated down.
"Senior Brother Xuanye, I'm really sorry, I'll compensate you for a flying sword. Ah Sheng took out a flying sword from the brocade pouch and respectfully handed it to Xuan Ye.
Xuan Ye tilted his head, looked down at Ah Sheng, gritted his teeth, and his face kept twitching, but he never reached out to pick up the sword that Ah Sheng offered.
"Ah Sheng, your sword touched the Sword Forest, triggering the Sword Forest effect and affecting Senior Brother Xuan Ye. Are you convinced to lose?" Mo Shi said loudly.
Ah Sheng knew that Mo Shi was giving himself and Xuan Ye the stairs, he also nodded, and shouted loudly: "Serve, I am convinced." Senior Brother Xuan Ye harnesses the flying sword, and in the process of traveling at high speed, he can not only dodge the sword forest, but also dodge my flying sword, such a micro-control power, it is really powerful. I was lucky to see Senior Brother Xuan Ye's exquisite sword control power. β
When Ah Sheng said this, there was an expression on his face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, and at first glance, he was not really expressing admiration, but as if he was echoing it.
However, Ah Sheng originally echoed the voice. From the very beginning, Xuan Ye used a flying sword to cut through his clothes, and Ah Sheng did not have the slightest good impression of this Xuan Ye.
Xuan Ye's face was blue and purple, his face was extremely gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Ah Sheng, right? Very good, I'm eyeing you." β
"Senior Brother Xuanye, don't you really want this flying sword?"
