Chapter 12, The Heart of the Strong

The 'frost' in the rear followed like a shadow, and a sharp sword followed the back of Xiaoluochuan's neck, feeling the slightest chill in the back of the neck, and Xiaoluochuan's body protection was vigorously stimulated.

The sharp sword behind his back instantly stabbed on the gangqi, like piercing tofu. The body protection qi was in vain, and Xiao Luochuan was shocked.

The Protective Body Gang Qi has always been invincible in self-defense, and the monk is not good at close combat, but because he can mobilize spiritual power to form the Protective Body Gang Qi, the monk has an advantage in front of the low-level martial artists.

However, his body protection qi was easily torn apart, and in a hurry, he manipulated the pitch-black sword to block the rear.

With a 'ding-' sound, the sword of 'Frost' stabbed the pitch-black sword.

Fortunately, it was blocked, and with the strength from the sword body, Xiao Luochuan drifted into the distance, looking at the 'frost' with a wary face.

Frost said expressionlessly, "This sword is very special, but it's a pity that with you, the master, it is ridiculous to use it as a shield." ”

Xiao Luochuan was a little annoyed and said, "What do I have to do with you with a sword as a shield, you haven't won yet." ”

Hanshuang looked at the pitch-black long sword in front of Xiao Luochuan, as if he was admiring it.

"This sword, the sword is full of destruction, this sword is born for war, and it is connected to your heart, and the monks of the general spiritual realm are not as comfortable as you are in controlling the flying sword. ”

After saying that, he stopped talking nonsense and attacked Xiao Luochuan in the style of flying immortals outside the sky, and Xiao Luochuan pinched the law with his hand, and used the only move that could be used in the realm of feeling the spirit in "Ten Thousand Laws".

I saw the pitch-black small sword draw a cross, the sword body flashed, and a cross-like aura was drawn out, rushing towards the frost, and the frost saw the cross sword that enveloped him.

The figure turned in the air, and the green sword kept flashing on the cross sword gang, drawing out the afterimage of the Dao, as if dancing in the air.

Jian Gang finally shattered under the attack of one move, and a neat figure passed through Jian Gang and stabbed towards Xiaoluochuan.

Xiao Luochuan looked at it in shock, this was the move of "Ten Thousand Laws", and it was broken like this. With his right hand, the pitch-black long sword slashed at the shuttle figure.

The figure slashed at the pitch-black sword with both swords in hand.

A loud "break-" word came into Xiao Luochuan's ears, and he saw the pitch-black long sword collide with the green sword, and a dazzling light illuminated Xiao Luochuan couldn't open his eyes.

In a squint, the light of 'bang-' disappeared, and Xiao Luochuan opened his eyes to see the pitch-black long sword break in response to the sound and fall at Xiao Luochuan's feet.

The frost green sword pointed directly at Xiao Luochuan's throat, and said coldly, "You lost"

Unable to believe his eyes, he sat down weakly, his hand stroking the pitch-black sword that had been broken in two.

Xiao Luochuan never thought that he would lose like this. Looking at the frost, "Excuse me, why am I losing?"

Xiao Luochuan couldn't think of what he had done wrong, it stands to reason that he not only saw through the other party's body, but also as a monk, he should have taken the advantage, why was he suppressed everywhere when he came here.

Hanshuang looked at Xiaoluochuan indifferently, and the two of them looked at it like this, for five breaths, and then Hanshuang turned around and left.

Xiao Luochuan looked at the sharp figure in the distance, and when he saw that the frost was about to approach the exit, he suddenly stopped.

A soft voice came into Xiao Luochuan's ears.

"Mo Jian, what you lack is not cultivation, but the most important character.

Originally, you resisted the last move with all your heart, and I couldn't break your long sword, but unfortunately, you finally wavered.

The moment I broke your move, you faltered, and I could feel the weakness of the sword, it weakened, and it no longer dared to destroy everything as much as I first saw it. ”

"You don't have the heart of a strong person, I don't know which genius you are, you only have the cultivation of the Spiritual Realm at a few years old, but it is precisely like this, your mind cannot manipulate the cultivation. ”

"Your only reliance is the realm of the spirit, but unfortunately you lack the heart of a strong person. ”

After speaking, he walked out of the gladiatorial arena, Xiao Luochuan listened to Hanshuang's last words, and the other party not only knew that he was disguised, but also pointed out that he was relying on cultivation and his heart was unstable.

Even Xiao Luoyi broke through to the realm of spiritual spirit at the age of fifteen, and his mental cultivation was very solid, while Xiao Luochuan's cultivation was too easy, forgetting his own spiritual cultivation, and he felt a little rampant.

In fact, Xiao Luochuan can't be blamed for this, after all, he is still a child, and he reached the realm of feeling spirit at the age of eight, Xiao Luochuan himself didn't realize it, he was overconfident.

Xiao Luochuan withdrew the pitch-black long sword in frustration, he suddenly understood that he lacked too much, and he made up his mind that he must work hard to cultivate in the future, not only to cultivate but also to have a heart.

Time flies, five years have passed in a hurry, and the wave city is as always.

In the past five years, Xiao Luoyi would visit Xiaoluochuan every three or four months, and even later brought Xiao Tianyi to see Xiaoluochuan and guide Xiaoluochuan's practice.

In the past five years, Xiao Luochuan has been twelve years old, and he has reached the age of adulthood in the Enze Continent, and in the Enze Continent, this age is considered an adult.

In the past five years, Xiao Luochuan has continued to practice, and he will go to the gladiatorial arena every month to compete, and he has slowly changed from losing more and winning less at the beginning to winning more and losing less.

He had encountered Frost no less than ten times, but he had not won against Frost so far, and he knew that as he continued to grow stronger, Frost was also getting stronger.

Although he loses every time, Frost is no longer as easy to win as before, and Frost has praised him more than once, which can be regarded as acknowledging his growth.

But just a year ago, after Xiao Luochuan cultivated to the ninth order of the Sensed Spirit, he never advanced an inch, that is, a year ago, Frost left and never appeared in the low-level gladiatorial arena again.

Xiao Luochuan heard that Frost often appeared in the high-level gladiatorial arena, and Xiao Luochuan believed that with Frost's swordsmanship and heart, even the high-level gladiatorial arena could be invincible.

Xiao Luochuan has no friends in the Xiao family, everyone is lukewarm to him, and Frost can be said to be the only friend in Xiao Luochuan's heart.

Although Frost didn't say that Xiao Luochuan was her friend, Frost's attitude towards Xiao Luochuan in the gladiatorial arena was obviously much better than that of other opponents.

If you are a bystander, Hanshuang will unceremoniously defeat the opponent, but every time you meet Xiaoluochuan, you will be much gentler, as if you are guiding Xiaoluochuan, Hanshuang has become an extremely important person in Xiaoluochuan's heart.

'Loneliness is the only way for a strong man', this is what the master told himself, although he couldn't cultivate an inch a year ago, but the master said that it was also a good thing for himself.

After all, Xiao Luochuan's cultivation is too fast, and it is very important to practice together, whether the foundation mind can match the cultivation for cultivation, so Xiao Luochuan does not force it, he has a new idea.

Since you can't make an inch of progress in cultivation, then why waste time.

On a snowy morning, Xiao Luochuan came to the mountain behind Xiaojia's house, and he didn't seem to feel the cold in a single suit, so he found a boulder and sat down cross-legged.

Xiao Luochuan practiced martial arts this year, not only successfully forged his body, but also was about to enter the realm of Xiaocheng.

Martial artists pay attention to internal strength and state of mind. Xiao Luochuan found that his dantian, which could not contain spiritual power, could use internal force.

In the Xiao family, I found a few exercises for practicing internal force, and after careful study, I also began to practice martial arts, and now an internal force in the dantian is slowly running.

The pitch-black long sword was also named 'Sword of Extermination' by Xiao Luochuan, which means the sword that destroys everything, and the nine holes in the sword body are now inlaid with a spirit bead the size of a dragon's eye.

The internal force is like a milky white flowing cloud, wandering around the body, constantly strengthening itself, and the meridians and bones of Xiaoluochuan are moisturized.

The martial artist's dantian has internal strength and long-lasting strength, which means that the martial artist has entered the realm of Xiaocheng, and the martial artist is strong in flesh and good at close combat, so he must continue to practice the state of mind.

Xiaoluochuan's internal force ran for a week, stood up, extinguished the sword and took it in his hand, dancing with the wind and snow with a set of swordsmanship called "Ruoshui Sword Technique".

Picking and stabbing between the clouds and water, the surrounding snowflakes dance with the sword, this is the best martial arts that Xiao Luochuan found in the Xiao family, it is said that the practice to the extreme can break the mountain and cut off the water.

After practicing a set of movements, Xiao Luochuan will sit down cross-legged to run the internal force, practice the mind, and so on, the practice is boring, and the practice of martial arts is also boring.

Fortunately, the Xiao family will soon hold the Xiao family's 'coming-of-age ceremony', and then you can relax a little, and after the coming-of-age ceremony, you can leave the Xiao family and go out to practice.

Xiao Luochuan exhaled a long breath and looked at the flying snowflakes.

"I can finally leave Xiao's house, this place is full of people, but it is too lonely. ”

After January, when the Xiao family's coming-of-age ceremony was held, the entire Xiao family was lit up and lively.

The high platform below the Xiao family's meeting hall is as wide as a hundred zhang, and it is full of tables and chairs, and many elders of the Xiao family sit together, and Xiao Qin sits in the middle, looking at the square below.

Five rings with a radius of 100 zhang were set up on the square, and everyone in the Xiao family sat on the futons on both sides of the square, and everyone shuttled back and forth in the crowd, busily serving fruits and wine to everyone.

Xiao Luochuan naturally also came, and sat in the upper right corner of the square with the people who attended the coming-of-age ceremony today, and as many as 100 people attended the coming-of-age ceremony today.

These people have some direct relatives of the Xiao family, and more of them are collateral lines of the Xiao family, also known as foreigners, who have always enjoyed the best resources in their direct lineage, and the foreign families of the Xiao family are strongly dissatisfied with this.

So in order to alleviate the internal contradictions of the Xiao family, there was this coming-of-age ceremony every four years.

It is said to be a coming-of-age ceremony, but it is better to say that it is a competition, where the foreign clan and the direct family of the Xiao family elect young people under the age of 20 in the clan respectively to determine the top ten, and then the top ten on both sides will have a duel with an elimination system.

In the last three top, if there are more collateral lines than direct ones, then the resources of the direct family will be reduced in the next four years, and the resources left for foreign families will be more.

As for how much, that's not what Xiao Luochuan cares about.

He cares about the rewards obtained in the competition, whether it is a foreign race or a direct line, as long as he enters the top ten, then there will be one hundred mortal spirit stones, which is not a small amount.

In the Xiao family, it was not easy for Xiao Luochuan in the Spirit Realm to scrape together a hundred spirit stones, after all, the cost of the Phantom Pill purchased every time he went to the dueling arena was a large expense.

This year, Xiaoluochuan practiced martial arts, and also needed a large number of medicinal materials to improve his physique. Xiao Luochuan, who can buy silver taels, is not worried, the Xiao family will not limit how much they can take.

But the spirit stones are different, and Xiaoluochuan in the spirit realm can only receive three per month.

So now Xiaoluochuan is a poor bastard, and if he wants to experience it in the future, he will not be too miserable, so he can only save money first, and it just so happens that this coming-of-age ceremony provides an opportunity.

Entering the top ten is Xiaoluochuan's current goal, as for the top three of the Xiao family, Xiaoluochuan will also compete for it, because the top three will get a special coming-of-age ceremony, as for what kind of special.

Xiao Luochuan didn't know, he only knew that the top three would stay in the Xiao family's refining pool for three days.

The refining pool is not simple, it is said that both monks and warriors want to enter and refine, and after purifying it, they are reborn.

For Xiao Luochuan, he urgently needs this kind of refining now, and he wants to see if he can break through to the realm of sacrificial spirits after purification.
