Chapter 60: The Way of the Beast
Mu Chen stepped forward and pushed open the stone door, and what caught his eye was rows of long swords, placed in order from high to short, each sword was carved with different patterns, with patterns, birds and beasts, birds, fish and insects, and the shape of each sword was very unique.
Mu Chen closed his eyes, felt them for a moment, then opened his eyes, pointed to a bronze sword on the left side and said, "Give me this sword, I can teach you how to use it." “
"Really? Are you really willing to teach me? Lingyu asked happily, she thought that Mu Chen would not teach her, after all, he had just said that her strength was not enough to learn these swords.
"Lie to you as a puppy!" Mu Chen snorted coldly.
"Good! Deal! Lingyu readily agreed.
In the following days, Lingyu followed Mu Chen to practice the sword technique, this set of sword techniques is divided into three realms, namely the first into the micro realm, the second virtual realm and the triple yuan infant realm, when Mu Chen taught the Lingyu sword technique, Lingyu just felt that this set of sword moves was simple and rude, and the power was great, but he did not perceive the mystery.
But during these days, Lingyu gradually discovered the extraordinaryness of this set of sword tricks, first of all, this set of sword tricks is extremely fast, and the sword moves are fierce, the moves are deadly, and with the aura, the power is doubled.
What made Lingyu sigh the most was that this set of sword techniques did not need to be driven by the cultivator's aura, but only needed to recite the mental method, therefore, Lingyu's cultivation speed was several times faster than that of ordinary people, and she felt full of strength after cultivating every day.
I thought that if she lost the idea of returning to the imperial city, she would no longer be involved in those treacherous turmoil, but as she walked among the people, Lingyu gradually found that this world was no longer what she had seen.
Demons are raging, people are not like people, ghosts are not like ghosts, the whole continent is shrouded in haze, and every corner is fighting and fighting.
The death of several princes and princesses in the imperial city seems to be just a fuse, and all the hidden forces have surfaced, and they are fighting and devouring each other in order to compete for power, and the whole country is in a miasma, and mourning is everywhere.
For a time, the mainland fell into war, and everyone fled in fear, lest they could avoid it.
On this day, Lingyu followed Mu Chen to hide in the deep mountains and old forests, away from the bustling city.
"This is a small town I've been training in, so let's stay here for the time being!" Mu Chen looked around at the town and said in a low voice.
"Is this town dangerous? How did I hear that this is a safe area? Lingyu asked suspiciously.
"It's a rumor." Mu Chen said indifferently.
"Rumors? But what I heard with my own ears, the uncle said that in the north of the town, monsters are rampant and eat people, and even the officers and soldiers can't help them, so the government can't do anything about them. “
Mu Chen snorted coldly and said, "He made up nonsense, the purpose is to make everyone afraid." “
"So that's the case, so aren't we going to stay here?" Lingyu asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, I have a way to deal with those youkai." Mu Chen said.
Although Lingyu was skeptical, she didn't ask any more, after all, Mu Chen's strength was very strong, maybe he could really fight against monsters.
Lingyu had an idea in her heart and decided to live in this town with Mu Chen.
When night fell, Lingyu sat in the courtyard and waited for dawn.
She was waiting for Mu Chen to come back, they agreed today, he taught her the tricks of controlling the sword, and she took the sword to accompany him to kill the enemy!
When Mu Chen came back, it was already half past three in the morning.
"I've finally found it." Mu Chen gasped and said, he went to the neighborhood just now to investigate and found the legendary sword mound, he finally found the sword mound with great difficulty!
"Found it, great! Then you can teach me swordsmanship. Lingyu couldn't wait to say.
Mu Chen nodded.
Mu Chen walked to the open space in the courtyard, sat down cross-legged, and said, "You stand beside me, I will demonstrate the sword technique, and then, you will try to control the sword weapon according to the steps I demonstrated." “
"Well, you name it."
Mu Chen began to demonstrate, Lingyu was still serious at first, but the more she got to the back, the more bored she became.
"Hey, can I sleep for a while?" Lingyu couldn't help but say that Mu Chen's movements were too slow.
Mu Chen stopped, frowned and looked at Lingyu: "You girl is really stupid, can't you even understand this?" “
Lingyu rolled her eyes and said, "I'm a girl, of course I'm not as smart as you!" “
Mu Chen snorted coldly, and then continued to start the demonstration.
Lingyu kept complaining, and it wasn't until she yawned later that she stood lazily next to Mu Chen, glanced at the process of his demonstration, and then urged impatiently: "Oh, you should hurry up!" “
"Close your eyes and be still!" Mu Chen scolded angrily.
Lingyu pursed her lips, then obediently closed her eyes.
Suddenly, Lingyu felt a cool aura pouring into her body, and then, her mind suddenly cleared up, and her spirit was vibrant, she quickly opened her eyes and looked, and she found that there were countless silver glittering long swords suspended around her, and these long swords were emitting a glowing silver light.
"Wow! Where did these swords come from? Lingyu exclaimed.
Mu Chen glanced at her coldly and said, "Don't make noise, watch carefully!" “
Lingyu didn't dare to slack off, and concentrated on observing the changes in these long swords.
Suddenly, two long swords changed, one of them was silver, and then flew out with a swish.
"Ah...... Holy! Scared the baby to death! Lingyu screamed in fright, patted her chest and said, "What's the situation?" “
"Stupid! I didn't tell you that these long swords are all alive, they can understand what we say, that is, psychic, and you just urged their spiritual power, and they flew out along with the spiritual power you released. Mu Chen said.
Lingyu nodded clearly, Mu Chen taught her how to call the sword back, but the two of them took turns calling for a long time, and the sword that flew out showed no sign of coming back.
At this time, Mu Chen finally felt that something was wrong: "Close your eyes and condense your breath and feel the direction of the sword." “
Lingyu closed her eyes when she heard this, and in the darkness she seemed to see a hazy shadow, lying on the ground and eating something.......
"What's that?!" Lingyu exclaimed, almost jumping up.
"Don't get excited, feel it carefully, this is the body of the monster!" Mu Chen said lightly, obviously he also felt it.
"What monster? I've never heard of it! Lingyu said in shock.
"There are a lot of monsters you haven't heard of. This is a demon king who has become a type, specializing in absorbing the blood of living people to strengthen itself, if it is allowed to escape, it will definitely cause a monstrous disaster, so we must cut it to the roots! Mu Chen said solemnly.
"Oh......." Lingyu was in a trance for a moment, she knew that Mu Chen would not lie to her, but she had never encountered any monsters, and she had never thought of killing them.
"Don't hesitate, while it hasn't woken up yet, let's hurry up and kill it, otherwise, once it recovers its strength, we will not be its opponents." Mu Chen's tone was calm, as if everything was under control.
"Okay." Lingyu nodded firmly.
So, Mu Chen took Lingyu to the place where the demon king was, and the two approached quietly, but the demon king really didn't notice them, and was still lying on the ground and gnawing the corpse frantically.
Lingyu swallowed her saliva, this demon king eats human flesh, and it looks extremely disgusting, she can't help frowning and covering her nose.
"This demon king is still in an advanced state, now it's best not to act rashly, wait for it to finish its advancement, then you can annihilate it in one fell swoop!" Mu Chen lowered his voice to remind, and Lingyu quickly silenced.
The two of them quietly observed the movements of the demon king, and suddenly, the demon king raised his head suddenly, and a pair of scarlet eyes stared at Mu Chen and Lingyu.
"Roar......" the Demon King roared angrily.
"Oops! It was discovered! Mu Chen's face changed slightly.
"Let's run!" Lingyu immediately took Mu Chen's hand and ran outside, and then, the demon king also chased them out.
"This demon king is so fast!" Lingyu shouted anxiously, and she felt a gust of fishy wind rushing behind her, which frightened her to move faster.
Mu Chen grabbed her wrist and said, "Keep up with me, your current cultivation is not enough!" “
Lingyu nodded hurriedly, Mu Chen took her all the way to the depths of the village, and soon came to a valley, they hid in the woods, but the demon king did not rush in, but lingered outside and refused to leave.
"What is the Demon King doing?" Lingyu asked Mu Chen.
"Wait for it to get advanced." Mu Chen replied calmly, and then instructed her: "You stay here, don't move!" “
Lingyu nodded, and then watched Mu Chen leave, she knew that Mu Chen had gone to deal with the demon king.
Mu Chen came to the outside of the village, looking at the scene in the village, he narrowed his eyes slightly, his face was gloomy, and he looked like a storm.
"You're here." A man slowly stepped out from behind a huge banyan tree, which was four or five meters high, obscuring the moonlight and plunging the whole village into a terrifying darkness.
"It's you, you're not dead." Mu Chen looked at the old man in front of him, he had seen the old man killed by lightning with his own eyes, how could he not die?
"Hehe, do you want me to die?" The old man asked with a smile.
"Why are you killing so many people? You beast! Mu Chen scolded hatefully.
"Since you can come to this world, shouldn't you be ready for a new challenge?" The old man said.
"You are wrong, the world is fair, you shouldn't kill innocents indiscriminately!"
"So what? As long as I can increase my cultivation, it's worth trying! “
Mu Chen was angry and said, "So, you have already killed a lot of people?" “
"Hahaha, what is murder? As long as it allows me to increase my cultivation, let alone hundreds of lives, even if there are more people, I can kill them with peace of mind! “
The old man laughed.
"You're crazy!" Mu Chen scolded angrily.
"Crazy? Hahaha...... You're right, I'm a brute, I'm not even a brute. The old man laughed and said, "But I'm not a brute now!" I'm an immortal! “
