Chapter 54: Shadow of the Wind (Part II)

This is a peculiar mountain road, only three zhang wide, the two walls stand like blades, straight into the sky, the mountain road is narrow and straight, the fierce and violent gang wind carries the overwhelming terror roaring and rolling, as if the unknown flood monster in the depths of the valley is roaring.

After 10,000 years, due to the washing of the rock mass in the valley by the violent Gangfeng in the endless years, the rock mass with a crisp texture and even the hard rock have all been eroded, and the rocks on the two walls and the mountain road have been "washed" by the Gangfeng to be smooth and cold hard, just like a large piece of black iron, I am afraid that the steel giant hammer will not be able to hit a small stone.

Luo Xiao stood in front of the valley mouth, his black hair was pulled straight, his clothes were close to his chest, and the hunting sounded, only to feel the wind blowing his face, and his eyes were difficult to open. In such a place, if you are not a martial artist who has achieved cultivation, if you are an ordinary person, I am afraid that you will not be able to stand steadily.

For the first time, Luo Xiao knew that there was such a strange place in Longyuan Mountain, which was comparable to the sandstorm in Baicao City! And this was only October, if it was December, when the wind was strongest, this wind would be able to blow people away.

This is not that Luo Xiao, the Orion family, is incompetent, you must know that Longyuan Mountain is not a mountain, but a huge mountain range, stretching for more than 100 miles, traversing Wuyang and the two countries month by month. Luo Xiao was born at the northern foot of Longyuan Mountain, and the place where he is standing now is in front of a valley called Longroar Valley at the southern foothills. One south and one north, hundreds of miles apart, it is not surprising that he does not know.

"The Dragon's Roar Valley, this name is also appropriate, and it really has a bit of the meaning of the dragon's roar. Luo Xiao couldn't help but think of the feeling of the dragon's long groan he heard when he was on duty in Longyuan Mountain to monitor the beast tide, that kind of power has a fight with the wind in this valley.

Of course, Luo Xiao didn't come here to look for abuse, but to cultivate mysteries. Although this Dragon Roar Valley is far away from Yishui City, it really belongs to the secret place of the Xiuwu Hall, and in front of the mountain road far from the valley mouth, there are two second-order Qingdao disciples patrolling, and they must show their signatures to be allowed to enter. And this sign card is the access card for cultivation, and it took Luo Xiao a full fifty merit points, which is more than the sum of his previous studies of the Qi Burst Arrow + Sword and Shield Combo Technique + Flying Thallium Twelve Hands.

There is no way, Deacon Kang's original words are: "Whether the Wind Shadow can be practiced or not is another matter, its own level is there, it is the top body and footwork in the realm of this domain, there is no one." When it first came out a hundred years ago, the price was 150 merit points. It's just that over the past hundred years, cultivators have been coming one after another, but almost no one has been able to achieve it, and this price has dropped again and again, and finally it has fallen to the current point. Then, he looked at Luo Xiao with an expression of "you are content", so Luo Xiao had to silently push the identity nameplate in front of Deacon Kang.

Fortunately, Luo Xiao originally had thirty or forty merit points, plus another thirty-five merit points from the White Grass City mission (blue level to red level), which was quite surplus and enough to spend. However, after the fifty merit points were crossed out, Luo Xiao only got a mental mantra and no body step figure, how to practice this?

"The figure is not in the Martial Arts Hall, but in the Dragon Roar Valley. ”

Deacon Kang said, so Luo Xiao came.

When Luo Xiao stretched out his palm, condensed a mirror-like shield in his palm to resist the wind, and at the same time used his eyes to look at the deep valley with concave and dark, light and shadow, but saw that the mountain road and the two walls were as hard as fine iron, showing deep footprints one after another.

This is the figure of the Shadow of the Wind - not in a book, but in a real situation!

According to the records of the Secret Martial Pavilion, "Shadow of the Wind" is the first legendary powerhouse to enter the upper domain from the lower realm, and it is composed of a mental mantra and 108 footwork footprints, and the practice conditions and environment are extremely harsh. First of all, it is necessary to choose a cultivation environment similar to a wind tunnel, and then the cultivator must strictly follow the footwork footprints to complete the 108 steps in one breath, without pausing in the middle, so that a Zhoutian cycle can be completed.

In this way, it is extremely difficult for a cultivator to have to confront the natural wind and at the same time move with precision.

Although the conditions are very harsh, there are so many martial arts geniuses in one domain, and there is no shortage of people with great perseverance and great wisdom, why is it that no one can practice it in hundreds of years?

To put it bluntly, the reason is very simple, just four words: insufficient resources! To be exact, it is a lack of aura!

Since the whole exercise process must be completed in one breath 108 steps, during which you must not make a mistake by half a step, let alone stop halfway, once interrupted, you have to start again. And the amount of vitality (power) required to complete 108 steps without interruption is too huge, and the power of the dantian yuan core alone is not enough to support the whole journey, and it is even difficult to go halfway.

If the aura of heaven and earth is sufficient, you can breathe and absorb the transformation of the yuan power while walking, one out and one in, endlessly, so it is still possible to complete 108 steps. And if you don't have the aura of heaven and earth, and you don't want to interrupt, the only way is to absorb the aura of the spirit stone.

Not to mention the harmfulness of the lower grade spirit stones, just talking about the price, one piece is worth a thousand gold, and it takes at least five spirit stones to complete a weekly cycle, which is only the amount of spirit stones required for an eighth-order warrior or above, if it is below the eighth order, the amount of spirit stones in a weekly cycle will increase at least three times. How many dollars do you have to make a year of small success? Who can afford it?

Therefore, the real reason why no one has practiced the thaumaturgy of the Wind Shadow so far is not that they can't practice it, but that they can't afford it! Take 10,000 steps back and say, even if you can afford to practice it, then the lower grade spirit stone is a special resource distributed by the imperial court to the samurai, which is rarer than pseudo-spirit weapons, it is a rare thing with no price, and you can't buy it with money, how can you practice it?

After figuring out the reason, Luo Xiao only had one thought, which was simply a figure tailor-made for him. If others lack spiritual energy, will he lack it? Others need spiritual stones, will he need them?

Providence, perhaps, he can really become the first samurai to practice this mystery in a hundred years!

Luo Xiao pointed five fingers, the Yuanli shield was stretched out like an umbrella, and he stepped into the mountain road with confidence, facing the wind knife that was enough to cut the skin of ordinary people through countless openings, although the pace was slow, but firm and calm, step by step, touching one side of the rock wall with one hand, it felt like fine iron. The dark luck finger force slashed violently, which was enough to crack the stone and open the stele, but there was not even a finger mark left.

Luo Xiao was surprised, his five fingers turned into claws, the yuan force surged, and five white fingers burst out from his fingertips, cutting across the mountain wall like a blade, and then five shallow white marks appeared.

What kind of rock is this, so hard? Far better than fine iron, comparable to dark iron!

The shock in Luo Xiao's heart had not yet dissipated, and the first footprints appeared in front of him.

A very ordinary footprint, just like the marks left by a person Shi Shiran walking through the muddy and soft mud. However, the appearance of this footprint here is extremely unusual. Because this is not a mud floor, but a dark iron stone mountain road that is harder than a hundred refined steel!

Luo Xiao was shocked, put aside the purpose of coming to the Dragon Roar Valley, squatted down, looked at the footprints carefully, and then was surprised to find that the footprints that were deep in the iron stone were three inches deep! And it was obviously not carved with a knife and axe, but someone stepped on it with his feet.

When Luo Xiao followed the footprints step by step, the more he walked, the more shocked he became-not the mystery of the shocking footwork, he hadn't realized it yet, what shocked him was that all the footprints were all the same depth, not more than one point, no less than one point, all three inches!

Luo Xiao seemed to see a real and illusory back, with fluttering sleeves and walking on the mountain road with his hands in his hands. Between the lines, it may be smart, or weird, or fast, or condensed, leaving a series of afterimages on the mountain road, and finally disappearing at the end of the deep darkness.

Calmly and lightly, the footprints under the Xuantie Stone Mountain Road are exactly the same depth, and this meticulous control of power is the most shocking!

The mystical secret technique left by such a strong man, once practiced, must be the first step in the Heavenly Mirror Domain!

Luo Xiao's heart suddenly became hot, Huo Ran stood up, clenched his five fingers, and the Yuan Force shield in front of him suddenly shrank and closed his palm, and then soaked his entire arm like water and covered his whole body, making his whole person feel like a layer of white light.

"So, let's get started!"
