After Qi An retrieved the Yuan Pearl, he was overjoyed in his heart, and immediately turned around, left the Earth's Core Cultivation Tower, and returned to the dense forest array on the ground.

Today's harvest was not only expected, but also made him feel like a dream, not to mention the rapid progress of Qi refining and cultivation, the original price of 6,400 yuan beads could be recovered half, and it only cost 3,200 yuan beads to go straight from the middle stage of condensation to the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, which is incredible.

If Qi An's Yuan Shen strength can keep up, at this time, he will be able to break through on the spot, be promoted to refining God, and his strength will explode a lot, not to mention that he can compare to the Divine Sword Commander, at least among the Divine Sword Guards at all levels, he is definitely a first-class powerful character, and it should not be difficult to match the four-bar guard.

At this time, Qi An's most urgent thing is to know to what extent his strength has improved, he has always relied on the strength of his physical body to fight, and the Soul Devouring True Qi has always played an auxiliary role, and now the Qi refining cultivation is far beyond the refining body, and it is still unknown how much combat power he can exert.

To verify the strength, the best place to go is to fight on the battlefield, but that needs to fight with others in full view, Qi An does not want to expose his full strength for the time being, and it is good to leave some hole cards to defend himself, so he will find another way.

Although there are a lot of remote and uninhabited open spaces in the inner city, there are too many masters and strong people living here, not to mention those terrifying Rongyuan real people, even the god refining monks have a lot of them, these people all have strong divine sense, sensitive perception, can't see, it doesn't mean that they don't know, it is very likely that as soon as Qi An makes a move, he will be noticed by the masters, and then pay attention, and he must not just find a place to try rashly.

As for the outer city, although the place is large, there are more people, in addition to a large number of soldiers of the Sword King's Mansion, there are also the families of soldiers and some merchants who come to do business, either military camps, or shops, and some military family houses, it is very difficult to find a place where no one is.

After thinking about it, Qi An could only choose a farther place, that is, to leave Sword King City directly and go to a deserted place where there is no one to practice the mastery to confirm the change in combat power.

As soon as he thought of it, he did not return to the Sky Splitting Tower, but walked out of the city directly, and then unfolded his body and walked all the way forward, and soon came to the edge of the vast green lake.

As its name suggests, the lake is green, breezy, overhead is the blue sky and white clouds, and the shore of the lake is green trees.

When he arrived here, Qi An was in a good mood, and couldn't help but look up to the sky in the direction of the lake and roar, fierce and proud.

I still remember that he was a martial arts idiot boy who wandered the world, killed sand bandits, punished thieves, and survived several near-deaths, and finally fought back, and one after another strong enemies died in his hands.

First, the Soul Devouring Demon Fire occupied the dantian, and then accidentally ate Zhu Guo and almost exploded, causing Qi An's cultivation path to not be smooth sailing, but bumpy and difficult.

In the end, Qi An cultivated hard, advanced by leaps and bounds, devoured pills, and plundered spiritual energy, which took nearly eight years, and finally promoted from a small martial artist to the peak of condensation, just to consolidate the Yuan Shen, he could go one step further and become a great monk.

Everything seems like a dream, but it is real.

Seeing that there was no one around, it was a good place to try it, so Qi An picked up his sighs and prepared to test the growth of his strength.

In terms of qi refining, Qi An will only [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques], which is derived from the ancient mastery of the Seven Absolute Sword Sect in Zhongzhou, and in the early stage of qi condensation, he can release his true qi and turn it into sword qi against the enemy, and even be able to condense into soldiers, which is extremely mysterious.

However, whether it is sword qi or sword shape, only when it reaches the peak of condensation qi can it exert its due full power, Qi An used the seven absolute sword qi against the enemy, most of the time the performance is not good, unsatisfactory, it is not as good as driving the fist with the power of the flesh to be fierce.

The characteristics of the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques] are that they are powerful, numerous, and good at changing, and they can crush the vast majority of the world's divine skills at the same level, but Qi An's previous Qi refining cultivation was too low, and he could not reflect his strength, so he could only be reduced to an auxiliary.

Today's Qi An is close to the Great Perfection of Qi Condensation, and the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques] must have made great progress, and it is estimated that it is much more powerful than using the [Backing Fist Technique].

Qi An raised his hand, the light on his hand flashed, and a wisp of cyan sword qi appeared, flying out of thin air, circling slowly around his body.

But soon, this wisp of sword qi differentiated into a new sword qi, one into two, two into four, four into eight, eight into sixteen, and a full sixteen cyan sword qi flew up and down around Qi An's body, which was dazzling.

In fact, this is not the differentiation of sword qi, but the fact that Qi An is constantly releasing new sword qi, just because the original sword qi is very close to the body, coupled with the effect of light and shadow, etc., creating an illusion of sword qi differentiation.

The stronger the true qi in the body, the more sword qi can be released at the same time, which is the characteristic of the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques].

In the past, Qi An could only send out two or three sword qi at the same time to attack, and then increase the number, it could not guarantee the maximum power, but now Qi An can fully release sixteen sword qi, and the power of each sword qi can reach the peak state, and the quality is not affected because of the large number, and even he has a little spare strength, it is estimated that it is no problem to have two more sword qi, and the peak limit should be eighteen sword qi together.

The sword qi broke through the air, making a "snort" sound, and the sixteen sword qi suddenly diverged and flew forward, and then made a sharp turn, circled, and turned back, stabbing at Qi An himself.

Qi An raised his left arm and faced the sword qi, his body had already been tempered to be comparable to a low-level magic weapon, and he was immune to all attacks below the refining god realm, especially his fists and arms, and his defense was ridiculously high, crowning his whole body, and he could hardly shake Cao Hua's Jiuyang Divine Sword without any damage, so he planned to test the sword and test the power of the sword qi himself.

This is also because ordinary mountains and trees are too fragile in front of powerful monks to detect the effect, Qi An is a strong physical body refining monk, so he came up with this alternative method, even if he is injured, it doesn't matter, with his self-healing ability, it doesn't take long to recover as before.

The sword qi reached the body, stabbing on the armor of the left arm, sending out a roaring detonation, after the double weakening of the inner and outer layers of armor, there was still some sword energy that invaded the body, causing slight damage to Qi An's arm, and a small gap was cracked on the surface of the skin, but in just a breath, it had healed and recovered, leaving no trace of half a step.

Qi An gasped, and almost had an answer in his heart.

The power of this Thousand Evil Illusory Wind Sword Qi is already quite good, it can almost be said that it has reached the extreme of the early stage of God Refining, and it is slightly higher than expected; if the eighteen sword qi attacks at the same time, the power is superimposed, it should be able to reach the threshold of the middle stage of God Refining, or even surpass.

But this is not the strongest attack state of the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques], because although the sword qi is strong, it is only the internal qi and the external release, and above it, there are more powerful qi into soldiers, and now Qi An's qi refining cultivation has reached the peak of qi condensation, and it can completely condense and compress the light sword qi to a high degree, turning it into a solid sword shape, and the attack power will be greatly increased again, becoming more terrifying.

"Condensation!" Qi An lightly spit out a word in his mouth, and sixteen slightly illusory sword qi began to change, no longer a simple sword light, but condensed into a soldier, transformed into sixteen dazzling long swords with exquisite shapes, if you don't distinguish them carefully, you will feel like a real thing.

The condensation of sword qi into a sword shape is the strongest attack state of the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques] at the peak realm of condensation, and the increase in power is not a little bit, but a substantial leap.

Even if he didn't have to test the sword himself, Qi An could feel that the power of each flying sword had reached the attack threshold of the middle stage of God Refining, far exceeding the sword qi form, and his own defense would definitely not be able to withstand it.

"Go!" Qi An pointed with his hand, and sixteen flying swords condensed from the [Thousand Evil Illusory Wind Sword Technique] rushed forward at the same time, the trajectory was erratic, not taking a straight line, but each drawing an arc-shaped path, attacking a small area on the lake in the distance.

"Sneer——!"

The flying sword pierced through the lake, making a series of sounds, splashing in all directions, and the fish were alarmed, like a boiling water fryer, filled with water vapor.

The test of the sword in the lake water, of course, could not be a test of power, but a test of speed and handling, and the result was that the former was acceptable, while the latter was not satisfactory.

Whether it is a flying sword or sword qi, after leaving the body, it is difficult to control, and you can only roughly adjust the direction of the attack, and the farther away you are, the worse the control.

The power and quantity of the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques] are related to the cultivation realm and the strength of the true element, and they are directly proportional, while the control needs to be coordinated by the Yuan Shen, and the true qi is driven by the divine thoughts, so that it can be ever-changing, like an arm making a finger.

In other words, Qi An must become a great cultivator of the God Refining Realm, with the help of the Yuan Shen, in order to gradually strengthen the control of the detached flying sword, and make more difficult and complex attack changes.

Not only the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques], but also Cao Hua's [Jiuyang Sword Techniques], all the sword cultivation must be completed by the Yuan Shen in order to exert their strongest strength.

All the techniques of the sword are basically to use the gods to control the qi, condense the sword with the qi, and attack the enemy with the sword, whether it is the [Seven Absolute Sword Technique] of the Seven Absolute Sword Sect or the [Nine Yang Sword Technique] of the Jiuyang Sword Sect, this is the case.

The difference is that the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques] is more changeable, the qi gathers into soldiers, the qi is deficient like a mang, the qi is dispersed and returned to the dantian, as long as the cultivation is high enough and the true yuan is strong enough, the number of sword qi will be more, there is no upper limit, even if it is ten thousand swords at once, it is possible.

And the [Jiuyang Sword Technique] turned the true element into nine strands at the beginning, and when the cultivation was low, it could only form a void sword qi and warm it in the body; until it reached the peak of condensation, it could be condensed into a substantial sword body and present a rudimentary form; until the early stage of refining the gods, it was considered a small success, and the embryo body sword yuan was cast into a nine-handled divine sword element, just like a real magic weapon, no matter whether it was collected or released, it was in the form of a sword.

However, the number of flying swords of the [Nine Yang Sword Technique] will always be constant at nine, and the cultivation will only affect the amount of power, and the number has been limited, and in the later stage, it is far less powerful than the ten thousand swords of the [Seven Absolute Sword Technique].

From this point of view, the degree of mystery of the [Jiuyang Sword Technique] is not as good as the [Seven Absolute Sword Techniques].

In fact, even the Jiuyang Sword Sect at its peak was much worse than the Seven Absolute Sword Sects that had been passed down from ancient times to the present, so the Nine Yang Sword Sect was destroyed, and the Seven Absolute Sword Sects stood tall after 10,000 years.
