Chapter Twenty-Eight: Breaking the Covenant
Xue Wangxu said it too quickly, but it meant completely different things to the two people who came from Guanzhong.
"Too fast!"
The slightly chubby businessman's face was solemn to the extreme.
The Sword Rune Dao was originally an uncommon method, and it was too difficult for ordinary cultivators.
It is really unimaginable that a cultivator of Ding Ning's age can complete two sword talismans in the space of more than ten zhang of Shen Yi's sword sprint.
"This is the Sword Rune Dao?"
Shen Yi heard the voice of the chubby businessman, and woke up from a moment of distraction, he did not have the pain and shame of defeat at all, but fell into a deep shock, "How can it be so fast... Even if you are born with a delicate temperament, it usually takes several years for the sword rune to be successful, and your sword talisman is not the simplest sword talisman, how long have you been practicing... How could it be so fast. ”
Ding Ning ignored the shock of the two people from Guan Zhong, he glanced at Shen Yi, and said very simply and directly: "I am not an ordinary cultivator. ”
Shen Yi was stunned.
At this time, Xue Wangxu, who was sitting under the eaves, became angry and shouted: "What and what! I said too fast, it's Ding Ning, you end it too quickly! Ding Ning, don't you know that after you don't need to think about cultivation every day, the time every day seems to be extraordinarily much, extraordinarily long? You can't make more than two moves?"
Hearing his angry shout, Ding Ning turned around and frowned, "Your requirements are a bit high." ”
Zhang Yi, who was standing beside Xue Wangxu, couldn't help but say softly: "Cave Master, this doesn't seem to be good, you told me before, the battle must be done with all your might, so it is also to respect the opponent, and the little junior brother is still young, deliberately keep his hand, what if he can't control it well and hurt himself?"
Hearing Zhang Yi's words, Xue Wangxu suddenly became even more annoyed, and raised his hand to fight, "Okay, you Zhang Yi, I have taught you so many principles of respecting teachers and respecting the Tao, and you dare to teach me a lesson now?"
Zhang Yi suddenly sweated, bowed down in fear, and said repeatedly: "The disciple doesn't dare." ”
"It turns out that I am really sitting in Guanzhong and watching the sky. Hearing Xue Wangxu and Zhang Yi's words, Shen Yi's face was slightly red, and then he solemnly saluted Ding Ning, and said seriously: "Now that I think about it, not only the speed of the sword rune, but also the timing of the two sword runes are so wonderful. From the beginning, you knew that I was no match for you, and you felt troublesome, so you were too prevaricated and unwilling to fight me. I expected Xie Rou to swear that you must be extraordinary, but I didn't expect to be so far away from you. ”
Looking at this young man who was neither humble nor arrogant, and quite related to the Middle Ages, and turned his head to look at the annoyed Xue Wangxu, Ding Ning thought for a while and said, "You didn't do your best. ”
Shen Yi said: "Your cultivation time is shorter than mine, and your cultivation speed is already faster than mine, even if I press my cultivation to be about the same as you, and my sword cultivation time is longer than yours, I still have an advantage." ”
Ding Ning shook his head and said, "I didn't mean that, you deliberately suppressed your cultivation, so naturally you were a little restrained, not so hearty." ”
Shen Yi didn't understand what Ding Ning meant, and was slightly stunned for a while.
"I'm waiting for your Sanyang grass. Ding Ning said calmly: "I should be able to reach the third realm in a few days, at that time my cultivation is close to you, if you are willing, I will fight with you again, you don't have to be restrained, you can completely exert your sword intent." ”
"That's pretty much it. Hearing Ding Ning say this, Xue Wangxu suddenly became as angry as a child and laughed.
"This..."Shen Yi felt that he should be happy, after all, he really wanted to have a hearty fight, but at this time, he felt that something was wrong, and he felt a little strange for a while.
Zhang Yi opened his mouth at this time, and said with a sad brow: "Little junior brother, where is it as simple as you think, although you are close to breaking the realm, but where you want to break the realm, you can break it." Little junior brother, Guanzhong has an upright temperament, you can talk to him casually, this is not good. ”
Shen Yi Huoran raised his head, and only then did he completely realize that something was wrong.
Qi refining realm to the true yuan realm is also a big level, it is a matter of understanding and accepting the heaven and earth vitality, many people are even stuck in this pass all their lives, where is there a person in the qi refining realm who says that he will reach the true yuan realm soon, and he can really reach the true yuan realm quickly?
You don't necessarily need to believe at this time. ”
Ding Ning was still calm, he looked at Shen Yi and said: "You can see it as my proposal, if I can reach the True Yuan Realm soon, I will fight with you again, if I can't get there soon, then I owe it first." ”
Facing Ding Ning's calm gaze, Shen Yi nodded and said, "I'm waiting for your news, and also, our Shen family will send the Sanyang grass you want to you as soon as possible." ”
Ding Ning bowed slightly and thanked him: "Thank you so much." ”
Shen Yi bowed his head, put his long sword on his back, and turned to leave.
......
Bursts of cheers and cheers continued to spread from behind him.
Shen Yi's steps towards the entrance of the alley became a little heavy.
Heavy footsteps mean that his heart is heavy.
"Uncle Jin......" He didn't turn around, and said softly: "Although even his senior brother reprimanded him for not being able to determine the time of breaking through the second realm to the third realm, it can't be too fast, but I don't know why, I always feel that he can really break through the realm quickly." His gaze was too calm, too confident. Could it be that he is really the same as the monsters of the Spirit Void Sword Sect and the Minshan Sword Sect that are rare in a hundred years, he is born with a unique perception of the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi, and at this pass, there is no need to waste any time at all?"
The chubby merchant Jia smiled bitterly.
He hesitated a little, but still said, "I feel the same way as you, if it is true that he is not an ordinary cultivator... He's really that kind of monster, I'm just worried that you won't be able to prove better than him all the time, I just hope you don't get discouraged. ”
"My father has always told me that when I am beaten, I must stand up straight, and I am willing to gamble to admit defeat, there are too many talented people in this world, and it is impossible to win them all, but in this life, the only thing that cannot be defeated is myself. Shen Yi's hands trembled slightly, but a more resolute look flowed between his eyebrows, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"This young man looks really good, if it were some children from noble families in Changling, they would never behave like this after losing. Xue Wangxu looked at the figure of Shen Yi who disappeared at the entrance of the alley, and said with great interest: "Ding Ning, why don't you make a bet with him next time and let him be called a student of the Aries Cave?"
Ding Ning glanced at him and said, "The current situation of the Aries Cave, don't mislead people's children." ”
Xue Wangxu's face stiffened, and he frowned: "Actually, it's not that unbearable, the Qingteng Sword Academy is still standing." ”
Zhang Yi had been hesitating before, but at this time he finally mustered up his courage, looked at Ding Ning and said, "Little junior brother..."
"I'm going to use the Aries Spirit Vein to practice during the next day, Senior Brother, why don't you help me take care of the cave master and take him to some places he wants to go?" But before he could say anything to admonish, Ding Ning had already looked at him directly and said.
Zhang Yi paused, nodded helplessly, and said, "Okay." ”
......
......
Although the Great Qin was stimulated by the law of rewarding military merits, the overall folk customs were brave, and when they saw the cultivators fighting, they did not panic and evade but flocked to watch, but there were still many differences in the temperament of the people in various places.
For example, Xue Wangxu and Ding Ning went to Zhushan County, Zhengrencheng, before, were relatively weak and afraid of things, trembling all day long, for fear that something bad would happen.
Guanzhong, however, is the most heroic and violent among the people, and most practitioners use swords as if they were knives or axes, taking the slashing or splitting style.
If Xue Wangxu and Ding Ning went to a small city in the hinterland of Guanzhong before, and the whole city was the enemy, I am afraid that Xue Wangxu and Ding Ning really had to slaughter the city again, so that they could rush out, or be killed inside.
Changling is the most intricate place where the powerful forces of Great Qin are most entangled, but the people of Changling are relatively modest, acting most cautiously and weighing the pros and cons.
There are too many trade-offs, but the temperament is easy to be more feminine, or more ruthless.
Therefore, Xue Wangxu's sigh is not without reason, among the students in many cultivation places, those young talents from Changling always have more haze in their eyes, and they are not open enough.
With this kind of temperament, how can he exert the sword intent of the Frank and Straight Sword Sutra that dominates in Great Qin?
It's just that Changling has some sword intent of the Sword Sect, not a straight way, but a strange and changeable way.
For example, the Shadow Mountain Sword Cave.
The gate of the Shadow Mountain Sword Cave is in the Shadow Mountain outside the north of Changling City.
Most of the buildings in the Shadow Mountain Sword Caves, as well as some of the earliest ones that were carved out of the mountain walls, are located on the sunny side of the Shadow Mountain, but they look like shadows due to their extremely dull gray-black appearance.
Gu Xichun is in one of these shadows.
He sat cross-legged on the ground, and in front of him was a gloomy and smooth mountain wall, which was like a shadow, and on the gloomy dark gray wall, there were countless sword marks of different shades.
The sword marks looked irregular and intricate.
Gu Xichun, who was sitting in front of this smooth mountain wall, didn't know how long he had been quietly contemplating, his body was full of dust, and he didn't have the usual demeanor at all.
A middle-aged division commander in a dark gray robe quietly walked behind him.
Looking at Gu Xichun, who was already sitting and haggard like a withered flower, the middle-aged teacher with a kind face couldn't help but sigh lightly and said, "Actually, you don't need to be so aggressive... Because no matter how many things you comprehend from the Shadow Sword Wall, it is very likely that you will not be able to win the Minshan Sword Meeting, because I learned the news that the young man from the Dugu family has also returned from Mobei and wants to participate in the Sword Meeting. ”
