Boom! Boom!

Rows of trees collapsed under the cutting of the sword qi, and the dense woods suffered an unprecedented catastrophe, and the duel between the two innate realm powerhouses turned this place into a tragic battlefield!

Although Qin Yun surpassed his opponent by half a chip in the realm of strength, after dozens of rounds of fierce battles, he was never able to turn his advantage into victory, and the true qi of the leader knight was also long and strong, extremely tenacious, and he was not completely inferior in the hard-to-face competition.

Moreover, his swordsmanship is very clever, attacking like thunder and guarding like mountains, he has his own majestic atmosphere, and his profundity is not under the Taiyi Jinhuan Sword Technique that Qin Yun has cultivated.

In the duel between you and me, Qin Yun quickly abandoned the idea of a quick battle, gradually forgot the mission he undertook, and his whole mind was completely immersed in the contest with his opponent.

As soon as his mood changed, so did his sword momentum.

Qin Yun's cultivation of the Taiyi Jinhuan Sword Technique was not a long time, but relying on the power of the Xiao Qiankun World, his mastery of this sword technique had basically reached the point of entering the hall, but because of the limitation of the realm, he could not evolve the sword phase and then reach the sword intent, so it could be said that he only exerted only thirty percent of the power.

The most important thing is that the Nine-Style Taiyi Jinhuan Sword Technique is not complete, and when Qing Yunzi first punched the sword technique into the Qinggang Sword and taught it to Qin Yun, he had specially reminded him of this defect.

In the previous cultivation and battles, Qin Yun still couldn't feel the lack of the sword technique itself, but with the gradual improvement of his strength and the enhancement of his swordsmanship skills. Gradually, this weakness began to emerge.

For example, in the battle with the chief knight now, he clearly felt that there was always something unfinished with the sword he unleashed. It's like a painting without the finishing touch, like cooking a dish without an important seasoning. At the critical moment, he was able to hit the opponent hard, but it was as if someone behind him was pulling him and couldn't compete for a full attack.

And with the repeated use of Qin Yun's sword style, the leader knight seemed to sense something, and several times when Qin Yun changed his moves, he suddenly rushed to attack and exert force, repeatedly destroying his sword momentum.

It's definitely not a pleasant feeling!

Uncomfortable!

Qin Yun took a deep breath and suddenly withdrew his sword momentum and retracted his sword.

The leader knight, who is accustomed to being beaten passively, falls across. The body lost its center of gravity and couldn't help shaking.

This is exactly the time!

The Scorching Sun Sword suddenly swept out, bringing up a heavy sword aura and blasting towards the opponent.

Sweep through the army!

This is the third form of the Taiyi Jinhuan Sword Technique, Qin Yun has used it more than once before, and the leader knight is basically very familiar with it. So calmly retreat back to avoid the surging sword momentum.

As long as you retreat from a sufficient distance, this powerful sword move is not threatening.

But he didn't notice the strange light that flashed in Qin Yun's eyes.

"Kill!"

With an angry shout, Qin Yun's sword momentum skyrocketed, and the sword qi that emerged from the blade instantly increased by more than ten feet, and the scope of the sword light covered by it suddenly increased greatly.

In the same sweeping thousand armies, the range that Qin Yun could control before was twenty to thirty steps, although he still had the strength to play, he couldn't play it, and every time he was easily dodged by the opponent.

But with this sword, Qin Yun's heart flashed with inspiration. He completely abandoned the original sword technique, and only used the essence of the sword technique combined with his own understanding to evolve a new sword style!

With the swing of this sword, a barrier that existed in Qin Yun's mind seemed to be suddenly broken through, and the heaven and earth in front of him suddenly became extremely vast, and the true yuan true qi of the whole body poured into the sword body, prompting an even more powerful and terrifying power.

The leader knight, who was Qin Yun's opponent, was shocked!

Qin Yun's sword technique momentum seemed to be several times stronger in an instant, and the sword qi that came from the heavy pressure was ten times more terrifying than before, easily sealing all his retreats. It caused him unimaginable pressure.

Under the pressure of the sword, he seemed to be in a fierce battlefield, facing the oncoming thousands of troops with a single sword, and the roaring sword mountain and sea of fire flooded the sight, and the destruction was only instantaneous!

Sword Phase!

The leader knight felt an irresistible fear and weakness in his heart, all his original judgments about Qin Yun were shattered by this sword, and the confidence he had just built up was gone.

However, after all, he is an innate powerhouse who has experienced a hundred battles, and although his courage has been taken away, his fighting spirit still exists.

When it came to life and death, the chief knight didn't care much, he burst into a sword swing, his burly body swelled suddenly, and his whole face turned purple-red, looking hideous and abnormal!

Rumble!

The two sword qi collided violently, and the big sword in the hand of the leader knight trembled violently and twisted, instantly bursting into countless metal fragments and shooting in all directions, obviously unable to withstand the power of the attack.

At the same time as the sword shattered, the leader knight suddenly spurted out a mouthful of crimson blood and staggered backwards.

He didn't know how many fragments had been hit in his chest, and if it wasn't for the blockage of his body's true qi, he was afraid that he would be pierced into a sieve by his own sword hole.

At this time, the chief knight no longer had the slightest intention to fight, and hurriedly turned around and fled.

Qin Yun stood still, letting the countless sword blade fragments bombard his body.

There was endless joy in his heart, how many times he had been tempered by hardships, how many times he had experienced the test of life and death, he had finally broken through the barrier between the sword qi realm and the sword phase realm, and had spied into the mystery of a higher sword technique through a fleeting spiritual opportunity.

This breakthrough came naturally, and it was also the result of Qin Yun's hard work.

And through this sword, what he gained was far more than just comprehending the sword phase, but also understanding the true meaning of "no informality, no restriction on techniques" in swordsmanship, breaking through the previous nest shell of the usual and completely according to the sword spectrum, and reaching a new realm.

As long as Qin Yun can take this opportunity to continue to work hard, it is entirely possible for him to make up for the Taiyi Jinhuan Sword Technique by himself, restore the original complete sword technique, and even create a unique sword technique!

Of course, this road is what thousands of sword cultivators yearn for, and I don't know how many difficulties and obstacles there are when it is thorny and bumpy.

But at this moment, Qin Yun's mind was stirring and shining, and the true qi of his whole body was circulating in the meridians, as if the entire heaven and earth were under his control, and he couldn't help but raise his head and roar.

The howl broke through the canopy and soared into the sky, and the leader knight, who had fled twenty paces away, was shaken.

Qin Yun, who had a big heart, did not ignore his existence, and the corner of his eye glanced over, and the long sword in his hand shot straight forward abruptly, turning into a long rainbow with a sharp sword qi!

Poof!

The leader knight, who was running wildly, suddenly stopped, he slowly lowered his head, and saw a snow-bright sword tip protruding from his chest, and his eyes were full of confusion.

How so?

It's a pity that he will never find the answer, the energy contained in the sword body tore apart the internal organs at the moment it entered the body, and the powerful warrior's throat "Gege" sounded a few times, and then fell forward and swallowed his last breath.

Qin Yun walked over slowly, pulled out the long sword from the opponent's corpse, and his excitement gradually calmed down.

He learned a lot from this fight, and he also has a little respect for the tenacity and tenacity of this opponent, if it were not for the opponent to push himself to the limit, I am afraid it will be difficult to get a breakthrough opportunity.

Flipping through the corpse of the leader knight, Qin Yun searched out a thick letter with fire paint from his arms.

On the top of the letter, the five words "Cheng Da General Wei" are particularly eye-catching.

It's here! Qin Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

He quietly escaped from Lingyang City from the dark passage, and traveled hundreds of miles to wait here for the rabbit to set up an ambush and intercept him, in order to find evidence to bring down the Shangguan family.

On the other hand, the frequent and intensive contact between the Shangguan family and Da Chu, coupled with the blockade of Ling Yang, all showed that they were about to launch and there was not much time left.

After thinking about it for a while, Qin Yun dragged the corpse of the leader knight to find a hidden place to hide, and then returned to the original ambush place again, removing the corpses of the other messengers and horses separately, and hiding the traces as much as possible.

There will not be only one group of messengers coming and going between the two sides, and once the body on the ground is found after he leaves, the news will inevitably leak so that the Shangguan family can prepare in advance, and the time spent now is just to buy more time.

After cleaning it up, Qin Yun added a magic talisman to himself and hurried back to Lingyang.

Until nightfall, when darkness covered the earth, Qin Yun quietly returned to the city with the help of the underground culvert connected to the river, avoiding the sight of the patrolling city guards, and entered the old mansion of the Shui family again.

Shui Mingdong was fidgeting in the study, he was surprised and delighted when he saw Qin Yun, and hurriedly asked, "Why did you come back soon?"

Qin Yun smiled slightly, reached into his arms and took out the intercepted letter.

Shui Mingdong almost couldn't wait to open it and watch, just read two pages and started to shoot the case: "Sure enough, the Shangguan family really wants to sacrifice the city to rebel, this is a letter written by Shangguan Wuji to Wei Yue, the commander of the Great Chu Flying Tiger Army, which states the Shangguan family's recent arrangement methods and next action plan, which is the way of heaven!"

With this solid evidence, Shui Mingdong no longer had the slightest doubt about Qin Yun, and he also had incomparable anger and gnashing hatred for Shangguan Wuji and the Shangguan family from the bottom of his heart.

You must know that once Lingyang City falls, his family will die and have no place to be buried!

"I have contacted and invited the Xie family and the Ouyang family master to set up a banquet in the mansion at night, ostensibly for the business of the three shops, with this letter, I can definitely move them to join us to deal with Shangguan Wuji together!"

"That's right" Shui Mingdong said to Qin Yun again: "I still have to ask you to inform Lord Xu about this matter, although he doesn't have much power in his hands, but after all, he is in charge of the city guard, and he has to come forward to suppress it at a critical moment!"

Of course, Qin Yun had no objections.

Xu Jingye is the new Lingyang City Guard, even if the authority is insufficient, but with the name of righteousness in hand, it can still play a deterrent role at the critical moment, after all, he represents the supreme imperial power. rq
