Chapter 4 Aspirations
The seed of internal qi takes root in the dantian, mobilizes internal qi, and the speed of the shot is more than a step faster than the day after tomorrow. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info just entered the inner house, and the increase in a trace of internal qi to himself has already made Lin Dong very satisfied.
Pushing open the door, it was still dark.
The gray sky had not yet fully lit up, and the cold wind with moisture was blowing on the body. The rustle of the trees in the forest mingled with the chirping of insects.
I haven't been in the door for a month, and I wonder if those people have forgotten about themselves.
As soon as the sun rose, Lin Dong carried the long sword on his shoulder, and under the whispers and pointing of the disciples in the door, he walked towards the Sword Trial Hall located in the south.
The time was too early, and there were only a few scattered people in the Sword Trial Hall who were practicing the swordsmanship of the sect in the Sword Sect and the swordsmanship of the rain in the Sword Gate.
Those disciples practiced one move after another with a clear eye, and each move was demanding to meet the standard.
The sound of ping-pong long swords intersecting came faintly.
Lin Dongyi stepped into the Sword Trial Hall. All the disciples stopped what they were doing.
looked at Lin Dong in awe.
"Good morning, Senior Brother Lin Dong, don't worry about your injuries, the last time I went to see you, the door was closed, and I didn't want to bother. ”
A young man ran over to say hello to Lin Dong.
The young man had broken brown hair, and his face was still green and immature. is about 1.7 meters tall, and he is only a little shorter than Lin Dong. The black practice uniform was wet with sweat and stuck to the body, and there were many gaps in the sword held in the backhand.
Lin Dong patted the man's shoulder with a smile and said, "Xiao Linzi, you have a heart, I'm all right now." I just saw you practice listening to the rain sword, but it looks good. Not bad, not bad. ”
Xiao Linzi, formerly known as Lin Yi. Although his talent is not very good, he has a very kind heart, and he is also one of the few people who Lin Dong can call his friend when he listens to Jianmen. His unremitting cultivation also made him a master of the third order of the day after tomorrow last year.
Lin Yi looked at Lin Dong curiously and said, "Senior brother, when I came back from my mission, I heard that you are ready to advance to the inner family, is it true?"
Lin Dong smiled proudly and said, "Well, I have successfully condensed my internal qi, and now I can be regarded as a master of the inner family." ”
"Really, senior brother, come and have a few tricks with me, let me feel the difference between the inner family and the day after tomorrow!"
"That's a good feeling, I'm worried that I can't find a meat target. ”
The two chose the venue, Lin Dong pulled out the long sword from his waist, and the momentum of the whole person changed suddenly, making Lin Yi, who was standing opposite him, very uncomfortable. It felt like being targeted by a beast, and the next moment it was ready to launch a killing attack.
Lin Dong used the sword technique of listening to the rain, and the long sword trembled like a blooming lotus flower. The three phantoms went straight to Lin Yi's front door. Three flashes of sword shadow! Lin Dong did not exert internal qi, but only the three flashes of sword shadow at the peak of the day after tomorrow.
Lin Yi stabilized his mind. The same trick is used, and it is right.
Ding!
The sound of the long swords intersecting only appeared twice, and the third phantom of Lin Dong's swordsmanship turned into a real sword and pointed at Lin Yi's throat.
"Senior brother, your trick of Broken Rain is much stronger than the one you used before. I used to be able to barely block it, but now I can't tell where the third sword is going to attack. It's amazing!"
Lin Dong smiled, knowing that this Lin Yi was saying good things to himself. Promoted to the inner family, the body still has a little bit of improvement, just used that move, you can obviously feel that the fluency and attack power have been slightly improved. But it is definitely not as exaggerated as Lin Yi said.
"Come again!"
As soon as Lin Dong's mind turned, the trace of internal qi in the dantian rushed out, and Lin Dong obviously felt that his shooting speed was nearly twice as fast as before. One trick is used to break the rain, and three phantoms are pointed out. This time, Lin Yi didn't even block the first sword shadow, and was directly knocked away by the long sword in Lin Dongjiang's hand.
Retracting the long sword, Lin Dong ignored the surprised Lin Yi, but carefully felt the sword when he had just attached his internal qi.
There has been a significant increase in speed and lethality, and if the internal qi is sufficient, it should not be difficult to point out the fourth sword shadow. As a result, the gap between heaven and the inner family is really huge.
Lin Yi looked at him with a wistful face, "Senior brother, when will I be able to be promoted to the inner family like you." ”
"Don't be too ambitious, it's true to lay a solid foundation, okay, I still have something to do. Go and practice it yourself. ”
Driving Lin Yi away, Lin Dong walked towards the sword test stone placed on the west side of the sword test hall.
The rock, which was more than a man high, stood straight and straight, and there were hardly any people in this area.
The black stone has an uneven surface that feels like skin to the touch. There are more than a dozen sword marks on it, either deep or shallow.
If you want to leave a mark on this stone, the strength must be above the inner family.
Lin Dong pulled out his sword, and with all his strength, he slashed at the stone with all his might.
There was a muffled sound.
A white mark was made on the stone, which quickly disappeared again. The part of the stone that had been cut down was restored to its original state.
He looked thoughtfully at the restored sword test stone.
It seems that the amount of his own internal qi is too small, not enough to break the sword test stone.
The previous use of Broken Rain consumed the newly accumulated internal qi in the body. The sword that slashed towards the sword test stone consumed the last trace of internal qi in the body.
After figuring out the reason, Lin Dong sat down on the spot, crossed his legs, and began to recover his internal qi.
Time flies. There were more and more people in the Sword Test Hall, but everyone tried to keep their voices as low as possible, so as not to disturb Lin Dong, who was sitting next to the Sword Test Stone.
Lin Dong's past achievements, coupled with Zhao Yongnian's recent experience, made these people more and more in awe of this ruthless senior brother.
The internal qi converged in the dantian and soon reached a saturated state. Lin Dong exhaled softly, opened his eyes, stood up, and held the long sword again. Look at the sword test stone beside him.
Just as he was holding his sword to gather qi, all the disciples in the Sword Trial Hall couldn't help but put down the weapons in their hands, stopped the cultivation of swordsmanship, and stared at Lin Dong tightly.
Heartbeat, pneumatic, sword-moving.
Lin Dong condensed all his internal qi and used a trick to tease the moon.
A white light flashed, and then a piercing sound came from the sword test stone like a cracked silk.
Everyone's hearts trembled at the piercing voice, and then they stared at the sword test stone.
A sword mark!
This Lin Dong has really been promoted to the inner family!
Lin Dong also had a smug look on his face at this time, and when he came to the sword test stone, he stretched out his left hand and gently touched the sword marks he had caused.
Very shallow.
That was his first feeling.
Compared with the sword mark at the height of the sword test stone, which had nearly half an inch, the one he left behind was not enough to say to outsiders.
That sword mark was left by the master.
There were bursts of whispered discussions in the Sword Trial Hall, some were envious of Lin Dong's talent, some were cheering for themselves, and some were jealous and ridiculed.
After a while, a boy holding a long sword with a red hilt walked into the sword test hall.
Seeing this boy walk in, everyone, including Lin Dong, clasped their fists and saluted him respectfully and said, "See the boy." ”
This sword-hugging boy is the disciple of the master, although he is young, but the talent he shows is enough to make the outer disciples who have been practicing in the Sword Sect for four or five years speechless.
Because of his young age, he couldn't withstand the violence of condensing his internal qi, so he became the head of the sword-hugging boy.
The boy looked arrogant, ignored the others, looked at Lin Dong, and said in a child's unique voice: "The head master has learned that you have been promoted to the inner family, now follow me to see the head master." ”
After speaking, he walked straight out of the sword trial hall with his sword, and did not look at Lin Dong behind him.
Lin Dong put away the long sword, followed the sword-hugging boy out of the sword test hall.
Follow the boy and walk up the stone steps to the top of the mountain.
Through the clouds and mist, you will see the Tingjian Pavilion built on the peak.
Huge palace-like, flowing clouds slowly gliding over the cornices that protruded. The red pillars in front of the hall couldn't be hugged by either of them. From the open door you can see the quaint decoration inside.
This Tingjian Pavilion is the residence of the head of the family and the three elders. They would not go down the mountain easily, and spent most of their time in seclusion in the Listening Sword Pavilion. If there is a summons, let the boy around him summon and bring it.
This is the second time Lin Dong has come to listen to the Sword Pavilion, and the last time was because he only used one year to enter the third order of the day after tomorrow, and the head of the sect was summoned here when he personally gave the Ganlin talisman.
"Master, the man has been brought. ”
"Well, stand down. Lin Dong, come in. ”
A calm male voice came out from inside, the voice was far away, coming from the vast hall, but it was still clear as if it was speaking in the ear.
Lin Dong took a step, stepped over the high threshold, and walked into the main hall, the floor was scrubbed very clean, and the light was so bright that it could reflect the light of the oil lamp on the pillar.
The hall can be called empty, except for some copper decorations on the pillars, there is nothing.
The head of the house sat on a high platform in the middle of the temple. Closing his eyes and pranayama, a white robe made the whole person look full of dusty air.
Lin Dong clasped his fists and saluted to the man sitting on the high platform, and said respectfully: "Meet the master!"
The man opened his eyes, and a flash of light vanished. He raised his hand slightly and said, "No courtesy, since you have been promoted to the inner family, now there are two paths for you to choose." ”
"Please also make it clear. ”
"First, you stay in my Listening Sword Gate, concentrate on cultivation, and when the third order of internal qi is completed, you will become the fourth elder in my Listening Sword Gate. The second is that you take my recommendation and enter the Liuyun Sect in March of the next year. It's just that as soon as the years pass in the sect, maybe the relatives in the world will never see each other again. ”
This Jianmen is also a sect with a very resounding reputation in the local Qi country, but to become an elder here is definitely not the result that Lin Dong wants.
Lin Dong said without thinking: "Cultivating a higher level of immortal law is the disciple's wish in his life. The disciple is willing to enter the Liuyun Sect to practice.
"Well, since you don't want to, then I won't force you to stay, give you three months, and go back to deal with worldly things. ”
"Thanks, sir. ”
The middle-aged man's arm waved again, and this time a small sword-shaped jade pendant arrived in Lin Dong's hand, and the voice also came, "This is a token from the elders in my sect, if you encounter any trouble when you go back, you can use this to find the outer gate or the government for help." Step aside. ”
