Chapter 20: The War
The warm breeze gently blew in the sect of the Dongfu Sword Sect, but the atmosphere at this time was obviously not so harmonious.
Yan Chidan and Ziyang Zhenren stood on either side of the ring, while the disciples below were all waiting with bated breath for this big battle that would determine the future direction of the Dongfu Sword Gate.
Ziyang Zhenren's cultivation is not high, at least in everyone's impression. It has never been able to become the head of the sect because of cultivation, if it is about cultivation, in fact, Elder Liu Si of Dongfu Sword Gate is the strongest one.
So when Ziyang Zhenren came out so confidently, in fact, everyone had some doubts in their hearts, whether they were pretentious or really victorious
And the one who really believed that Ziyang Zhenren had confidence in himself was actually only Yan Chidan who was standing opposite him.
Yes, that's what a master and apprentice are. Just as Ziyang Zhenren knows Yan Chidan, Yan Chidan also knows Ziyang Zhenren very well. Even more than Huo Sixian, he had to know better, because Yan Chidan even had the same cultivation techniques as Ziyang Zhenren.
"Master is so confident, it seems that the Ziyang Sword Technique has been cultivated to the fullest" Yan Chidan looked at the Ziyang Zhenren who was gradually gaining momentum and asked out loud.
"Actually, I've always regretted it. Ziyang Zhenren said softly, "I have practiced the Ziyang Sword Technique for one or two times longer than you, but unfortunately in the end, I can only break through the fourth layer." And you've only been practicing for decades and you've left me far behind. Your talent in kendo is really the strongest I have ever seen in my life, and even the Qinglan Sword Venerable who is overwhelming Mucheng may not be able to compare with you in this regard, but unfortunately, you still walked on the wrong path in the end. ”
Yan Chidan God (情qíng) was stunned, and slowly drew his long sword, "The road is walked by people, although it is still hazy in front of me, but no one can assert whether it is right or wrong without walking it." ”
There were many disciples who didn't understand why Yan Chidan and Ziyang Zhenren had to start a duel, and they had to talk so much nonsense, it was because they didn't know what the true connotation of the Ziyang Sword Technique was.
Ziyang sword trick is a (set tào) sword trick that pays attention to momentum, not so much how subtle the sword move is, in fact, this sword trick is more about the feeling of suppressing people with power, in fact, this is a (set tào) sword trick that is very suitable for the cultivation of the head of a faction, because of the kind of power accumulated on (身shēn) (日rì) over time, the power of the Ziyang sword trick will be multiplied.
Ziyang Zhenren tried to suppress Yan Chidan's momentum with words, because he knew that even if he had broken through the fifth layer of the Ziyang Sword Technique now, in terms of his understanding of the Sword Technique, even if Yan Chidan hadn't cultivated for a long time, he was still not Yan Chidan's opponent. But Ziyang Zhenren also has his own advantages, as I said before, all kinds of momentum will have an amplifying effect on the Ziyang Sword Technique, and Ziyang Zhenren is both the head of the Dongfu Sword Sect and the master of Yan Chidan, and Yan Chidan will be under more pressure than him.
Yan Chidan obviously understood this truth, so he took out his sword. He couldn't wait any longer, his pressure would increase under one another, and he would eventually be overwhelmed by Ziyang Zhenren's sword intent.
Yan Chidan took a step forward gently, but this step contained the feeling of being close to the end of the world, obviously in the eyes of everyone, he was still quite far away from Ziyang Zhenren, but Ziyang Zhenren quickly took three steps back as if he was about to be slashed by Yan Chidan's sword.
"Hey, this is" Wu Jing looked at Yan Chidan on the stage in surprise, "Has his Purple Yang Sword Technique been cultivated to the point of purple qi illusion?"
In fact, the Ziyang Sword Technique is not a sword technique that is too hidden, although the difficulty of cultivation is not small, there are still some monks who practice this sword technique in the Dongfu Sword Gate. And coincidentally, the Fifth Elder Wu Jing's cultivation was also the Purple Yang Sword Technique
This is not to say that the Ziyang Sword Technique is a rotten street technique, on the contrary, the Ziyang Sword Technique is a very, very difficult sword technique, although it is not too difficult for the monks of the Dongfu Sword Sect to get the opportunity to watch the Ziyang Sword Technique, but the success of cultivation is indeed very rare.
Ziyang Zhenren had said before that his talent was much worse than Yan Chidan, and he had only broken through to the fourth layer after cultivating for hundreds of years, and only now had he reached the bottom of the fifth layer. But this is only a comparison with a genius like Yan Chidan, and in the entire Dongfu Sword Sect, the only ones who can cultivate the Ziyang Sword Technique to the fourth layer are actually Ziyang Zhenren and Wu Jing.
It was precisely because Wu Jing was also cultivating the Ziyang Sword Technique that he was even more surprised by the performance of the two in the ring. The senior brother who had always been considered by himself to be nothing more than a mediocre talent in any way seemed to have silently cultivated to the fifth layer, and Yan Chidan's performance made him even more speechless, purple qi was illusory, it was the seventh layer, God knows if there had ever been a monk who had cultivated to this point in the history of the Dongfu Sword Sect.
And Ziyang Zhenren, who took three steps back, was also aware of this problem at this time, and his face became a little ugly. I didn't expect this kid to have reached this point now, I thought that he was now cultivating to the fifth layer, and with the gap in other aspects, he could win against this kid, but I didn't expect that he has now reached the point of purple qi illusion, but it's not right, isn't purple qi illusion said that only Jindan monks can cultivate, with the concentration of spiritual power of Tongmai monks, it shouldn't be able to do this step.
Yan Chidan's footsteps would not be stagnant because of other people's thoughts, and he saw him constantly and quickly draw his sword in place.
In this way, it was obvious that the two were far apart, but Ziyang Zhenren could only dodge and move again and again, looking slightly embarrassed.
Gradually, some chattering began to spread among the disciples. There are doubts, there are surprises, who would have thought that the dignified head of the Dongfu Sword Sect would be so pressed by his own disciples that he couldn't even return his hands at this time.
With a sound of "呲", Ziyang Zhenren's shaky (desire yù) defense was finally broken by Yan Chidan, and a blood arrow sprayed out from Ziyang Zhenren's shoulder like a spring.
"There's no need. Everybody thought so. Aren't the two masters and apprentices, if they can't fight, they will admit defeat, why do they have to do this step, this is a bit too much. A battle in the ring that seemed to be relatively peaceful suddenly had a hint of blood.
And how could a monk like Yan Chidan miss this opportunity, I saw him step forward quickly, and rushed straight towards Ziyang Zhenren with an indomitable momentum, although Yan Chidan did not have the idea of deceiving the teacher and destroying the ancestor, but it would be a good thing for him to be able to injure Ziyang Zhenren here.
It's a pity that Yan Chidan didn't notice the sneer on the corner of Ziyang Zhenren's mouth.
