Chapter 197: Trying the Sword
As the months passed, the frequent battles became much less frequent.
The monks are not stupid and will not spend their energy on this in vain. After fighting for such a long time, it will take a while to digest what they have gained.
After all, the purpose of monks fighting is to improve their own cultivation and strength, not just to fight bravely with others.
At this time, Xiao Tianyun had quietly returned to Jianzong with Qingguo.
Sword Sect Xiao Tianyun also came here a few times. Although he didn't stay long each time, he was still familiar with it.
When I arrived at the Sword Sect, I also saw some disciples. However, the cultivation of these Sword Sect disciples was not high. When they saw Xiao Tianyun arriving, they only bowed slightly and did not dare to say anything.
"Most of the Sword Sect members are traveling or in retreat. Unless there is something important, they will rarely return to Jianfeng."
Xiao Tianyun was not very familiar with these things, but Qingguo did.
"As for the Sword Pond, it is said that it is not on top of Sword Peak, but at the foot of Sword Peak. However, there is a ban imposed by the Sword Sect's ancestors, so it is impossible for people under the sect to enter at will."
Originally, according to the usual practice, after Xiao Tianyun returned to the sect, he had to pay homage to the elders in his own lineage.
However, the Xinjian lineage is only passed down, and Master Jianying is in seclusion, so it is not appropriate to pay homage to Master Jianying.
Last time, if Xiao Tianyun hadn't really asked for something, he wouldn't have rashly paid homage to the Sword Master.
Within the Sword Sect, Xiao Tianyun did not have deep connections, and in the past, Qingguo was more focused on practicing swordsmanship and had no interest in socializing, and he did not have many acquaintances.
In fact, this is also the long-term friendship between monks. If they are not friends who meet day and night, otherwise the friendship will be as light as water and will not cause any waves.
However, what Xiao Tianyun did not expect was that someone would come to visit him just after he had stayed for a few days.
There were two people coming, and they could barely be considered acquaintances. One was Jian Aohai, and the other was Jian Po Lei.
Both of these two people are extraordinary, especially Jian Po Lei, who walks like a dragon or a tiger, and has an aura that frightens people's minds. A closer look shows that he is already a monk at the Shenxu stage, and his aura is even greater than that of Jian Jun.
To win by one point.
I don’t know why he became a sword slave at that time. Just looking at his qualifications, it was more than enough to become a disciple of the Sword Sect.
In the world of spiritual practice, there are many people who have qualifications but have no luck. It is really like this, and it is not surprising.
"It turns out to be Senior Brother Jian Aohai. Please forgive me for missing you."
There was no politeness in the Sword Sect, so Xiao Tianyun just greeted him politely and invited him to sit down.
"I heard that Junior Brother Jiantian returned to Jianzong this time for the sake of Jianchi? To be honest with Junior Brother Jiantian, I returned to Jianzong this time for the same reason."
Jian Aohai wasn't very used to beating around the bush, so after he sat down, he smiled and explained what he wanted to say.
"Junior brother and I are both the same and different. Junior brother wants to improve his cultivation, but I want to use this to break through the bottleneck and reach the realm of the gods."
"Senior brother, do you want to take this opportunity to pass the test?"
Xiao Tianyun was also slightly shocked when he heard what Jian Aohai said.
"Can Jianchi also increase the possibility of us successfully passing the level?"
"The sword pond is a place where sword energy gathers. It is indeed a bit dangerous for other monks, but it is a blessed place for me, a sword cultivator. In it, I can feel the sword energy and understand myself. It is quite beneficial. If it were not for the sword energy
I am sharp and can easily hurt myself and others, why should my sword sect stop at this?"
Jian Aohai grew up in the Jian Sect since he was a child, so he naturally understands the things here.
"And this is not the first time I have entered the sword pool. Although there is no one to protect me, I am 90% sure that nothing will happen. I just don't know if I can succeed in the first time."
It's 90% sure that it will happen.
"This time I heard about the arrival of my junior brother, so I came here to talk about it. I can also tell my junior brother about the sword pond."
Jian Aohai is arrogant, but he is still willing to surrender to those who have the ability.
He had personally fought with Xiao Tianyun. Although it was just a sword competition, he also knew that Xiao Tianyun was not the kind of person who was vain and had real abilities.
Regarding Jianchi, even Jianjun is somewhat vague.
Sword Lord's practice has been quite smooth all the way, but he has never borrowed the sword pond to help him.
With Jian Aohai's explanation, Xiao Tianyun understood Qi Ba.
"Thank you, Senior Brother. If Senior Brother has any assignments, Jiantian will definitely do his best."
There is no such thing as love or hate for no reason in the world of cultivation, not to mention that Xiao Tianyun's contact with Jian Aohai is actually not very deep, so it is naturally impossible for him to receive favors from others for nothing.
Of course, even this small favor would not make Xiao Tianyun do anything big.
"There is indeed something going on, but it's not a big deal."
Although Jian Aohai was arrogant, he still knew how to act within his limits, so he immediately said it with a slight smile.
"Po Lei knows that Junior Brother Jiantian inherits the Heart Sword lineage and can know all kinds of swordsmanship. He also knows that Junior Brother once used Jing Lei Breaking Nine Heavens Sword Technique, so he wanted to ask for some advice and realized his own shortcomings."
It is the same sword technique, but different people practice it differently, so the power in it is naturally different, and it is even completely different from the original intention of the sword technique.
The meaning of Jian Po Lei is very obvious. He wants to prove his own shortcomings in swordsmanship by using the same sword as Xiao Tianyun.
"good."
This kind of sword competition is naturally of great benefit to Xiao Tianyun, so Xiao Tianyun has no reason to refuse.
"I have practiced this sword technique for a long time, and I think I am very proficient in it. I would like to ask Senior Brother Jiantian for your guidance!"
The Sword Sect has become the master of swordsmanship. Even though Jian Po Lei’s current cultivation strength is higher than Xiao Tianyun’s, and he also started before Xiao Tianyun, but once he worshiped the Sword Slave, his position was below that of the official disciple of the Sword Sect.
, Be sure to address your elders when speaking.
"Okay! Please."
Xiao Tianyun was also straightforward and took action as soon as he finished speaking!
Strictly speaking, Xiao Tianyun doesn't know any Thunder Breaking Nine Heavens sword technique, at most he only knows one or two sword moves.
However, Xiao Tianyun has the Baotian detonator in his hand, and his study of sword thunder is more profound, and it is even closer to the original intention of this sword technique. Once he takes action, it is as fast as thunder, and it arrives in the blink of an eye. Before the sword comes, it bursts with power!
"Excellent swordsmanship! Unexpectedly, Junior Brother Jiantian's swordsmanship has improved so much!"
As soon as Xiao Tianyun came out with his sword, Jian Aohai was the first to react.
"good!"
Immediately after, Sword Breaking Thunder also gave out a round of applause. This sword may not be as good as Sword Breaking Thunder, but this sword is more like thunder. Using the sword to turn thunder is close to the original intention of the sword technique.
Facing this sword, Jian Po Lei didn't even move at all, and didn't even draw his sword.
Xiao Tianyun also didn't expect that Jian Po Lei would test the sword with his own body and experience the three flavors of the sword. He wanted to take the sword back when it was about to hit him, but how could he still have time at this time?
Although the sharp sword did not penetrate his body, all the thunder from the single sword struck upwards, immediately shattering his clothes into pieces, and his chest was charred black.
"Thank you to Senior Brother Jiantian for showing mercy!"
After steadying his steps, Jian Po Lei said immediately.
"I never thought that Senior Brother Jiantian could control his swordsmanship so easily that I would be able to avoid the pain of three months. I will remember it in my heart."
"If you can control yourself and dare not say anything, you can only advance and retreat as you wish. Otherwise, this sword wouldn't have hurt you."
Xiao Tianyun himself was a little dissatisfied. He could control the sword, but he could not control the power of the sword at all. He blindly shot with the maximum power. Although the power was powerful, it was actually inferior by three points.
"On the contrary, Brother Po Lei tried the sword with his own body and realized the true meaning of the sword. This is really admirable!"
Xiao Tianyun's words were not polite words. Xiao Tianyun had long known about this method of making a sword by trying it on one's own body, but Xiao Tianyun had no intention of trying this method at all.
Although this method can help you understand the true meaning of the sword, your body will inevitably be injured.
If it's just an ordinary injury, that's fine. But if it's a fundamental injury, it's not worth it.
You must know that even if he is a cultivator in the Divine Void stage, if Xiao Tianyun had used his sword properly when he was completely unprepared, although he would not have died, he would definitely be severely damaged in March, and even if it went deeper, it would be possible to damage his foundation.
And if this is really the case, even if the sword breaks the thunder, it cannot be said to be wrong. It is normal to be injured during the fight, not to mention that no one let him suffer this sword.
But knowing that there would be such consequences, he was still able to do it. Even Xiao Tianyun had to sigh, Jian Po Lei was indeed the number one among the sword slaves at that time. Even the sword sect disciples of the same generation were no match for him.
If it weren't for the fact that he was a sword slave, there wouldn't be many people in the Sword Sect who could be his sword master.
"I have studied the Thunder Breaking Nine Heavens Sword Technique very well. If I just fight with each other, I won't gain much from it. Only by experiencing it with my own body can I gain something."
Jian Po Lei let out a long sigh of relief. After all, he was a cultivator in the Divine Void Stage. In addition, Xiao Tianyun tried his best to hold back, so he had already regained some vitality in a few words.
But after saying this, Jian Po Lei just took a few steps back and stopped talking, instead focusing on understanding the true meaning of Xiao Tianyun's sword.
"Junior Brother Jiantian, I would like to thank you very much for this. Let's stop here for today. I will surely repay you later."
Jian Aohai obviously knew Jian Po Lei's plan, and said to Xiao Tianyun with a wry smile.
"It doesn't matter."
Xiao Tianyun knew that Jian Aohai was only interested in getting nothing this time, but Xiao Tianyun didn't care too much about it.
After Jian Aohai and the others left, Xiao Tianyun couldn't help but pace back and forth.
"Jianchi..."
According to what Jian Aohai said, there were eleven or twelve people entering the sword pond this time. Except for the three people who had been pre-decided and their sword slaves, the rest were at their own risk.
Anyone who dares to make such a decision is more than 60% sure, but Xiao Tianyun's is the lowest.
"This time, I don't want to break through to the Great Perfection of the Soul Origin Stage in one fell swoop, but I need to break through at least one or two profound entrances so that I can deal with the incident in Xuanzhou later."
A delicate hand held Xiao Tianyun's arm. Although Qingguo was not good at words, he used this method to express his meaning.
In the blink of an eye, another ten days passed, the sword pool was about to open, and Xiao Tianyun led Qingguo to the foot of the mountain.
There were already ** people here. When they saw Xiao Tianyun and the two people arriving, their eyes lit up slightly, but they didn't say anything. However, one person quickly walked up to Xiao Tianyun and said softly.
"Master."
