Chapter 144: Ancient Martial Soul
As time passed, the fierce religious wars had quickly swept through most of the Marne Federation, and Isabella had to leave Brut early to travel back and forth between the city-states in order to protect the last few neutral city-states. www.biquge.info At present, the Holy Sword Mercenary Regiment has almost become the only armed force that can protect these neutral city-states.
Marven was not idle, for several days, the first thing he did when he got up in the morning was to pour his fighting qi into this Taiji stone, and concentrate on capturing the looming energy fluctuations.
The speed of that energy was extremely fast, appearing and disappearing without warning, and Marven increased the speed of the fighting qi to the extreme, and only then could he barely sense its existence.
After several consecutive attempts to work day and night, Marven finally caught the energy fluctuation, but he didn't have time to rejoice, only to feel a sudden "boom" in his head, and then he fell unconscious.
I don't know how long it took, Marven woke up slowly, but he was suddenly shocked------- the Taiji stone in his hand had disappeared.
Marven's heart "clicked" for a moment, and he suddenly sank to the bottom, and he launched a carpet search around like crazy, not even letting go of a single bush, but he didn't find any trace of the Taiji stone.
"Hey, young man, are you looking for me?" Just as Marven was anxious, a middle-aged uncle in a black and white robe with a scruffy beard walked towards him with a playful face.
"Get out of the way! I don't have time to pay attention to you now!" Marven was in a hurry, naturally he didn't want to pay attention to others, and his words were not very polite.
"Oh, so you're not looking for me, forget it. The uncle shrugged indifferently and disappeared in an instant.
"Make no mistake! How is this possible?!" Marven was shocked to find the black and white Taiji Stone from the place where the middle-aged uncle had disappeared.
"That uncle turned out to be transformed by this Tai Chi Stone, I really can't believe it!" Marven almost regretted his impulsive and rude actions just now, and hurriedly picked up the Tai Chi Stone and poured the fighting spirit of his whole body into it.
But that Taiji Stone seemed to be playing tricks on itself this time, and that energy fluctuation always jumped and appeared, not giving Marven a chance to catch it at all, and it was not until late the next night that Marven recaptured it.
"Young man, what's the matter with coming to me so late?" the bearded middle-aged uncle yawned.
"Who are the seniors, and why do they hide in the Taiji Stone? The younger generations have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, and they were offended a lot yesterday. Realizing the mystery and strength of the person in front of him, Marven hurriedly apologized.
"Hah, young man, what you said is wrong, I am not a human being, but a martial soul transformed by countless martial arts inheritances in the Taiji Stone!" the middle-aged uncle looked proud.
"Martial Soul?" Marven looked him up and down, and said in surprise: "Then haven't you lived for tens of thousands of years?"
"That's right, young man!" the martial spirit snapped his fingers, "Being able to summon me means that you still have a lot of opportunities with the Ancient Martial Arts, congratulations on becoming the next inheritor of the Ancient Martial Arts." ”
"The question is, how can I get the inheritance of the Ancient Martial Arts?" Marven glanced at him and asked a little unconfidently, "Could it be that you have mastered all the Ancient Martial Arts?"
The martial soul smiled for a moment, and said, "Hmm...... This one...... You know, the ancient martial arts are broad and profound, and its inheritance needs to be experienced and understood by the warriors themselves, not by the teaching of others, you must know that actual combat is the test of combat effectiveness...... In fact, the duty of our martial soul is only to assist you in achieving a breakthrough in actual combat. ”
"It turned out to be just a sparring partner. Marven muttered quietly, feeling a little lost in his heart.
"What are you talking about?!" Martial Spirit jumped straight up like a cat with its tail stepped on, "You actually said that I was just a sparring partner?!"
Marven stuck out his tongue helplessly, but he didn't expect his words to be heard by him.
"You know what a fart!" the martial soul shouted angrily, "Do you know that countless martial artists who have stood at the peak of martial arts throughout the ages have only suddenly opened their mouths and comprehended the true meaning of martial arts after your uncle and my guidance!"
The martial soul took out a jade slip from his arms angrily and handed it to Marven, "These are some powerful sword moves, you can comprehend them and then come to fight me, at your current level, hehe, it's not me who strikes you, and I don't deserve to lift shoes for your uncle." ”
"Where and where, the predecessors have learned from the past and the present, and the martial arts are unfathomable, which is beyond the reach of an unknown person like me, you misunderstood just now, I definitely have no disrespectful meaning. Marven took the jade slip respectfully, but he was secretly slandering himself in his heart: "This guy looks like a ruffian, where does he have half of the demeanor of a senior master, I'm afraid that the things in this jade slip are not very reliable." ”
"It's pretty much the same, the son can be taught!" the martial spirit raised his head, his face full of pride. "Tell you, boy, although I am just a soul formed by the inheritance of martial arts, but throughout the ages, I am really a rare opponent, and it is difficult to find defeat!"
The martial soul patted Marven's shoulder, and pretended to encourage: "Young man, you still have to study hard! Although you may not be able to reach the realm of mine, if you can go through twenty moves under my hands, you can be regarded as a top master among you human beings!"
"After all, if you humans want to defeat a genius like me, it's absolutely impossible!" said the martial spirit, shrugging his shoulders in a stinky manner.
"Is it?Your Excellency Martial Soul, I don't know if a human warrior like me can ask your old man for a lesson or two?" An extremely familiar female voice came, and Marven looked back, only to see the head of Isabella, who was in golden armor, standing behind him at some point.
"Head Isabella, you are so busy and still have time to rush over, it's hard work!" Marven was furious.
The martial soul was as if he had seen a ghost, and said with a sad face: "My little aunt, you can spare me! The human warriors I am talking about do not include a female demon like you!" The arrogance of the martial soul just now was thrown out of the clouds in an instant, and his legs couldn't help but tremble slightly.
Seeing the embarrassed appearance of the martial spirit, Marven couldn't help but look at this situation, he was afraid that the martial soul had been beaten by Isabella back then.
Isabella's figure instantly appeared in front of the martial spirit, the golden holy sword in her hand was slightly unsheathed, and she feigned anger: "Who do you say is the female devil?
The martial soul monster screamed, and soon disappeared, restoring the appearance of the Taiji stone.
"Captain Isabella, what the hell is this martial spirit? Do you think these things he gave me are reliable?" Marven handed the jade slip to Isabella with trepidation. That martial soul is cynical, Marven only thinks he is too unreliable.
"Well, to be precise, this martial soul should have been just a spirit in the Taiji Stone at the beginning, it didn't have any independent thoughts, and was only responsible for some commentary tasks. ”
"It's just a spirit in charge of commentary!" Marven had a black line on his forehead, "Then he's such a stinky fart, it stands to reason that I should be his master!"
Isabella spread her hands and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, when this thing first appeared to be self-conscious, not only me, but even Master Morris was startled, hehe, time is really a magical thing, ten thousand years is enough to make all spiritual things become essence, but you don't have to worry, although this martial soul is uninhibited, but he will still do his job dutifully, at the beginning, I also used his jade slip to slowly come into contact with ancient martial arts." ”
Marven breathed a sigh of relief, touched his chest with his right hand, and said, "Since this is the case, then I will rest assured." ”
"But don't take it lightly. Isabella frowned, and reminded solemnly: "The test of the martial soul to the inheritor is extremely tricky, if you can't show your strength in the martial arts competition, then you don't want him to hand over the more advanced martial arts classics to you." ”
When Marven heard this, his heart sank suddenly, and he said sadly: "I want to defeat him, alas...... It's just that my qualifications are dull, and if I don't make much progress in the end, and I fail miserably at the hands of that spirit, I'm afraid that I will be troubled by him in every way. ”
Isabella smiled, "It's not difficult, as long as you use your heart to understand, you will naturally find a way to defeat the enemy, of course, as long as you are not very busy, I can also find time to give you some guidance." ”
After Marven thanked him for his kindness, he opened the jade slip, and after a closer look, it was recorded that it was a whirlwind slash!
Marven was overjoyed, he had personally experienced the power of the whirlwind slash, and suddenly got its cheats, and couldn't help but exclaim.
This whirlwind slash was the most terrifying sword move Marven had ever seen, and at the beginning, Hammond had defeated the Rebel Commander Garg, who was slightly superior in fighting spirit, and Isabella easily defeated herself with only two successes!
"The secret of this whirlwind slash lies in lightness and flexibility!" Isabella did not hesitate to point out the trick as Marven drew his sword and practiced.
"The whirlwind slash needs to be extremely precise in timing, turning the tide of the enemy unexpectedly, and turning defeat into victory!" Isabella did not forget to show Marven, the whirlwind spinning blade almost flattened a small dirt slope not far away.
"In addition, the power of the Whirlwind Slash comes from its speed, and the fighting spirit can only play a supporting role. Isabella put away her sword and looked at the pile of rubble, bowing her head slightly, as if pleased with her technique.
"I see! You have fused the power of a sonic boom!" Marven noticed something special about it, "No wonder the same Whirlwind Slash is much more powerful in your hands than Hammond!"
"Clever! Looks like you've figured it out. Isabella smiled and encouraged: "Then practice diligently, I hope you can make a breakthrough as soon as possible." ”
"We must live up to the high expectations of Your Excellency the Regiment Commander!"
In the next few days, Marven was even more penance, and soon mastered the whirlwind stunt.
"Boom!" When the spinning flying shadows smashed a boulder slope, Marven felt out the black and white Taiji stone, "It's time to challenge!" At this moment, his face was full of determination.
