Chapter 9: Sword Intent
"Then how do you cultivate sword intent?" Xu Hao asked.
"It's very simple, as long as you hold the wooden sword, without using spiritual power, you can split the boulder in half with one sword, and the wooden sword can't have any wear and tear. The spirit said casually.
"Wooden Sword Cracking Stone!How can this be done?" Xu Hao paused, and the method that the soul said was a little too difficult.
"It's up to you, I can only tell you, you have to learn to control the power, as well as the speed and angle of the sword, as well as the use of all aspects, to turn the sword into your own thing, to instill the sword into your own flesh and blood, and to make yourself so that you will never forget that you are swinging the sword, and swing the sword all the way to the bone marrow!" the soul's voice suddenly became serious.
Xu Hao was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath, a hint of determination flashed in his eyes.
"Okay, I'll practice!"
Xu Hao knew that if he didn't raise his strength to a higher level in the next time, then he would not be able to face the danger in the future.
What's more, if you want to get the approval of the elders of the Yuanji Sect, it is not enough to just cultivate, if you show the talent of sword cultivation at the end of the month, then Xu Hao doesn't have to worry anymore.
After speaking, Xu Hao began to prepare to practice the sword intent according to the method that the soul said.
When he came to the courtyard, Xu Hao brought a boulder the size of two people, put it in the center, and then wielded a long sword to cut off a branch and made a wooden sword casually.
Holding the wooden sword, Xu Hao stood in front of the boulder and began to slash continuously.
......
......
......
Ten days later, in the lobby of the Xu family.
The Great Elder sat in his chair, his eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was waiting for something.
After a while, the three elders came to the lobby with Xu Yi.
"Great Elder, why did you call us here?" Xu Yi bent down slightly and asked respectfully.
"Have you all heard what happened in Xihe Restaurant?" the Great Elder opened his eyes and said lightly.
"Xihe Restaurant, isn't that the Bai family's territory?"
Xu Yi looked puzzled and turned his head to look at the three elders, but the three elders only shook their heads, indicating that they didn't know.
"Great Elder, in recent days, Xu Yi has been staying in the courtyard to do penance, and he has not heard anything outside the window, and he still hopes that the Great Elder will tell him. Xu Yi bowed and said.
"Great Elder, could it be that something happened to the Bai family?"
The third elder stepped forward and frowned.
Xu Hao suffered the revenge of the Bai family juniors in Xihe Restaurant, easily defeated dozens of people, and finally led to the three elders of the Bai family, but even if the three elders of the Bai family made a move, they couldn't take Xu Hao, but Xu Hao was slightly better. The Great Elder said coldly.
"This!"
Xu Yi and the three elders looked at each other, and they both saw a trace of shock in each other's eyes.
"The cultivation of the three elders of the Bai family is at the peak of the sevenfold qi condensation, Xu Yi, let me ask you, if you face the three elders of the Bai family, can you suppress him?" the third elder asked.
Xu Yi's face was serious, and after thinking in his heart for a moment, he replied: "Although it can't be suppressed, it won't be defeated." ”
"It's not enough, just not losing is not enough for you to win the gambling battle at the end of the month, you must know that at the end of the month, the elders of the Yuanji Sect will come to Baitao City, if you defeat Xu Hao at that time, and it is a devastating defeat, it not only gives a good impression to the elders of the Yuanji Sect, but also deters the other three, so I want you to defeat Xu Hao, do you understand!"
In the end, the Great Elder's tone had become unquestionable.
"Xu Yi understands, but the Great Elder, if you want me to defeat Xu Hao, I am afraid that it will not be enough for me to defeat Xu Hao in the remaining time. ”
Xu Yi understood what the Great Elder meant, and he didn't dare to say half a word, he could only cultivate to the greatest extent.
When he said this, he still wanted to get some benefits.
"You naturally don't have to worry about this, from today onwards, the Xu family will do everything to satisfy you, all the cheats in the Gongfa Pavilion, you can check it, if there is anything you don't understand, you can come and ask me, okay, you can retreat first." ”
The three elders slowly closed their eyes.
When Xu Yi heard this, his face showed a look of ecstasy, but he quickly reined in, bowed down and said, "Thank you Great Elder, Xu Yi will definitely not live up to the expectations of the Great Elder, Xu Yi will retire." ”
With that, he turned around and hurried away.
He couldn't wait to cultivate!
After Xu Yi left, the third elder said with an embarrassed face: "Great Elder, isn't this decision a little too hasty?"
Devoted all the resources of the Xu family to cultivating Xu Yi, just to deal with Xu Hao at the end of the month, this decision, in the eyes of the three elders, was still too exaggerated.
"You don't know Xu Hao yet, he has infinite potential and talent, if he was born into the Xu family, then I should do everything to cultivate him, but unfortunately, he is not, and he has great ambitions in his heart, and he will not stay in the Xu family for a long time. ”
"This ...... Great Elder, are you praising Xu Hao too much?"
The Third Elder felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't expect Xu Hao to be like this in the eyes of the Third Elder.
"Maybe it's a little too much, but it's not much different, Xu Hao has a strong talent, but he can't be used by us, he has a backbone, so I will cultivate Xu Yi to suppress him, now I have cut off all his resources, he has no talent but no resources to cultivate, just standing still. ”
Speaking of this, a hint of coldness flashed in the Great Elder's eyes.
Since he can't be controlled by the Xu family, he can only be destroyed.
"There is another thing, the Li family and the head of the Ye family have already sent a message, saying that they agree with our plan, from tomorrow, the Bai family juniors and middle-level elders will be assassinated, the third elder, you go and order the dark department, and at the same time find a few assassins who are similar to Xu Hao, do your best to imitate Xu Hao, once the assassination fails, immediately cut yourself, and send someone to keep an eye on it, and you must not leave a living mouth. ”
The Great Elder's tone was full of murderous intent.
The third elder's face changed, knowing that the great elder was really here, he actually wanted to borrow the plan to kill people with a knife to calculate Xu Hao, if this plan was really successful, then Xu Hao would not be chased to death by the Bai family.
"Yes!"
......
......
......
With the alliance of the Ye family, the Xu family, and the Li family, and the assassination plan launched, the Bai family was panicked during this time.
Because many Bai family members were assassinated to death!
In the past, the Bai family was full of confidence when they went out, but now, not only the juniors of the Bai family, but even their elders were cautious when they went out, for fear of a killer jumping out of any corner.
Only a few days after the assassination occurred, many juniors disappeared or died, and several elders also died, and the backbone of the Bai family was greatly affected, but it was not broken.
The assassination of the three families was extremely measured, only assassinating some insignificant juniors, and they were all assassinated every few days, they wanted to use this method to continuously weaken the power of the Bai family.
The clansmen were assassinated, and the top of the Bai family naturally did not care, and immediately sent several elders to investigate, but to their disappointment, these killers were too cautious, and they fled directly at the slightest disturbance, and after the elders caught the killer, they didn't wait for questioning, and the killer directly cut himself.
Not to mention the news that comes out of their mouths.
However, there is no endless road, and the elder of the Bai family still found some clues through the pursuit and killing.
Most of the elders found that among the killers they were chasing and killing, there was a suspicious figure of Xu Hao.
And just some time ago, Xu Hao had a conflict with the Bai family juniors in Xihe Restaurant.
Therefore, the elders of the Bai family unanimously believed that Xu Hao did it.
However, even if they thought that Xu Hao did it, there was no evidence and could not follow the Xu family's theory.
So they decided that the assassin was Xu Hao.
What's more, Xu Hao himself also has a grudge against them.
In the days when they were not out, the Bai family also sent a killer to assassinate Xu Hao, but Xu Hao never left the Xu family, resulting in their killer being unable to do it.
For a while, the atmosphere in the entire Baitao City seemed a little weird.
......
......
......
In the courtyard of the Xu family.
Xu Hao is still standing in front of the boulder today, holding a wooden sword and constantly slashing and stabbing.
However, at this time, on the boulder, there have been traces of the Dao marked by the wooden sword, and beside Xu Hao, there are a bunch of tattered and bent wooden swords.
Crazy slash!
For Xu Hao, he must become a sword cultivator now, because as long as he becomes a sword cultivator, he can face all the dangers that will happen next, and it is possible to enter the cultivation of the Yuanji Sect, especially in the past few days, Xu Hao has chatted with the soul spirit and has a deeper understanding of sword cultivation.
When swinging the sword, it is absolutely necessary to use the force straight, and the direction of the blade is the same as that of the sword, and there must be no inclination, it must be exactly the same.
Cutting off the boulder with a wooden sword is not really relying on the wooden sword to cut off the boulder, but relying on the sword intent in the heart, although the sword intent is invisible, it is powerful!
As long as you can show your potential, even a wooden sword can cut through boulders.
And if you want to show the potential, in addition to mastering the power control with crazy swings, there is also the comprehension of the sword.
Xu Hao's comprehension of swords is naturally not bad, but he has also practiced hard for a long time, and it took dozens of wooden swords to comprehend a little.
Although it is not possible to cut the boulder yet, Xu Hao has a feeling in his heart that the potential of the sword intent is constantly condensing, and when the potential is completely condensed, the wooden sword can cut the boulder, and at that time, he will be a sword cultivator.
As soon as he thought of this, Xu Hao's heart seemed to be surging with motivation again, and the speed of the sword was even faster, and he began to slash wildly again!
Time passed slowly in his constant slashes......
Five days later.
When the sky was just a little white, Xu Hao was already standing in the courtyard, holding a wooden sword, and preparing to start practicing.
And at this moment, in his heart, there is no joy or sorrow, and he is extremely calm.
When he raised his head and saw that the edge of the sky seemed to turn into an incomparably straight line, separating the light and darkness and turning it in half, he suddenly had a realization in his heart!
Then, he swung his sword!
Although it was a sword swing, it could be said that it was slashing towards the boulder at an extremely slow speed, and at the same time, on his body, there was gradually a sword momentum that was rapidly condensing, and when the sword blade was about to swing to the boulder, the sword momentum had already condensed to the peak.
Subsequently, the sword momentum transformed, and suddenly turned into sword intent!
Suddenly, there was a flash of golden light on the wooden sword.
The blade of the sword has arrived, and Xu Hao slashed in an instant.
There was no sound, and when Xu Hao came back to his senses, he found that the boulder in front of him had been halved.
