Chapter Six Dark Crisis
At dusk, a young man from the back mountain walked towards the martial arts training ground humming a song. It was Lu Fan.
After learning how to practice Qi, life passes faster and becomes more fulfilling.
Three months have passed, and Lu Fan's Qi cultivation has become more stable and his figure has become stronger.
On the martial arts field, three generations of disciples in the family were taking turns hitting the test stone to test how much progress they had made in the past year.
Lu Ming had just tested it. He gathered all his energy and struck it down with one palm, leaving only an inch and a half deep palm print on the test stone.
The trial stone is made of special materials. An inch deep represents one level of true energy, and an inch and a half means that the cultivation level has not reached the second level of true energy.
Almost all the three generations of disciples in the family have reached the second level of Zhenqi. Even Lu Qiaoqiao, who is only seven years old, has reached the second level of Zhenqiao this year. Lu Ming is half a year older than Lu Qiaoqiao, but he was left behind by Lu Qiaoqiao.
, can’t help but look a little depressed.
After Lu Ming finished the test, he stepped aside, looked up, and saw Lu Fan walking towards this side from a distance, and quickly shouted: "Seventh brother, seventh brother, come here quickly."
Seeing Lu Ming waving and shouting from a distance, Lu Fan smiled secretly, knowing that the three generations of his family like to compare with each other, so Lu Ming must have called him over to relieve him of his embarrassment.
Although Lu Fan is the youngest of the three generations in his family, those older brothers and sisters are just half-grown children in his eyes, so how can he care about the comparisons of his children.
Shaking his head, Lu Fan walked over.
"Seventh brother, you have been practicing Qi for three months. Come and try to see what level you have reached during this period." Lu Ming said with a hint of urging.
Lu Yunqiao, who was standing next to the trial stone, smiled when he saw Lu Fan coming over and said, "Xiao Fan, your fifth brother is right. You can verify your own cultivation and compare it with your future cultivation."
Lu Fan nodded and said, "Yes, third uncle and nephew also have this intention."
After saying that, he walked to the trial stone, gathered all his true energy into his palm, and struck it down with one palm. His palm was more than half an inch into the trial stone, and his true energy had not yet reached the first level.
Looking at the gradually disappearing palm prints on the trial stone, all three generations of the family present were stunned. It took only three months for them to practice to such an extent. They were simply monsters.
Only Lu Ming was a little proud on the side. Finally, there was someone with lower cultivation than him. His frustration was swept away. He puffed out his chest and said: "Seventh brother, your Qi has not reached the first level yet. You must work harder in the future."
!”
Lu Yunqiao, who was standing beside him, became pale and scolded angrily: "You brat, it's you who have to work hard! Your seventh brother has almost reached the first level of Qi in three months of practicing Qi. What level will you be in after three months of practicing Qi?"
"Ah? Three, three months?"
He was so happy just now that he had forgotten that his seventh brother had only been practicing Qi for three months. At this time, being scolded by his father, Lu Ming slowly lowered his head, his body became half shorter and his expression became even more depressed.
After the test, Lu Fan was quite satisfied with the results of his three-month training. He smiled at Lu Yunqiao and said, "Third uncle, my mother is still waiting for me to go back for dinner, so my nephew will go back first."
Lu Yunqiao nodded and said to the children: "It's time to eat, let's all go back!"
The children dispersed and went home. Only Lu Zhu did not move on the battlefield. He stared at the trial stone intently. He slowly turned his head and looked coldly at the figure who was two heads shorter than him and who was gradually going away.
Before Lu Fan started practicing qi, Lu Zhu had always been the first among the three generations of disciples and the most talented cultivation genius.
However, just after Lu Fan slapped the trial stone, Lu Zhu seemed to see his reputation as a genius shattered with a palm and replaced by Lu Fan.
As a result, Lu Zhu secretly regarded Lu Fan as his opponent and could not let Lu Fan surpass him no matter what.
A son is better known than his father. Seeing Lu Zhu staring at Lu Fan, Lu Yunqiao already knew what his son was thinking.
Lu Yunqiao stepped forward, patted Lu Zhu on the shoulder, and said: "Your seventh brother practices the Boundless Sea Heart Sutra. With the guidance of your sixth uncle, it is natural for you to enter the country faster. Your father has seen your hard work over the years.
Father knows that you will definitely achieve something in the future..."
"The child will not embarrass the family!" Lu Zhu clenched his fists and said.
Lu Fan didn't know that Lu Zhu had regarded him as his opponent. Even if he knew, he wouldn't take it to heart because he already had a rival in his heart.
After dinner, Lu Fan began to practice Qi.
After trying to practice the [Hunyuan Yiqi Heart Sutra] three months ago, I discovered that the [Hunyuan Yiqi Heart Sutra] cultivates not the true energy, but the spiritual source.
Spiritual source, the power that can only be generated after the eight gates are opened and the essence, energy and spirit are integrated, is also called the true martial force.
From this point of view, the [Hunyuan Yiqi Heart Sutra] is a heart sutra that can only be cultivated with the power of true martial arts. It is higher than the heaven-level heart sutra. I don’t know what level it is.
In any case, it is not possible to practice yet, so Lu Fan chose to practice the Boundless Sea Heart Sutra practiced by his father. With his father's years of practice experience, he can practice it more effectively with less effort.
Practice Qi in the evening and sword practice in the day.
Lu Fan was more interested in practicing swordsmanship than practicing Qi.
In that world that was both real and illusory, he saw a mysterious man wielding a sword and performing the Wind Chasing Sword Technique that contained the sword's intention. From then on, Lu Fan began to understand the sword intention of the Wind Chasing Sword Technique.
After practicing his sword every day, but unable to capture the slightest bit of sword intent, Lu Fan wanted to enter that world of reality and fantasy again and have another sword fight with the mysterious man.
However, I don’t know how to enter that world that is both real and illusory.
Until one day, the true energy in Lu Fan's lower dantian increased again. Lu Fan once again entered the world of reality and illusion, and had another sword fight with a mysterious man.
At this time, Lu Fan knew that as long as his true energy reached a certain level, he could enter this real and illusory world and fight swords with mysterious people. From then on, Lu Fan worked harder to practice.
Until today, Lu Fan has entered the world of reality and illusion eight times. From the very beginning when he was defeated by the mysterious man in three moves, to today he can fight with the mysterious man for hundreds of rounds before being defeated.
According to the speed at which he was refining his qi, Lu Fan calculated that after refining his qi tonight, he would be able to enter a world of both reality and fantasy to fight swords with a mysterious man, and he felt a little excited.
With the movement of the Boundless Sea Heart Sutra, the vitality of heaven and earth seems to flow into the sea and is guided into the lower Dantian.
Suddenly, a feeling of fullness flowed through his heart, and Lu Fan felt happy in his heart. The scene before his eyes changed, and mountains and rivers appeared. On the top of the mountain, a mysterious man stood with a sword in his hand.
Entering a world that is both real and illusory, Lu Fan was speechless and rushed to attack with his sword. He moved his feet slightly and arrived in front of the mysterious man. He stabbed out with his sword and dense sword energy swept out.
Chasing the Wind Sword Technique, Returning the Wind and Falling Leaves!
The mysterious man had no expression on his face, and he raised his sword. The sword energy came first, followed by a strong suction force. It seemed that there was an invisible vortex at the tip of his sword, which could suck the moon in the sky into it.
The Cloud-Splitting Sword Technique and the Moon-Embracing Style!
Lu Fan's sword skills have improved greatly now, how could he be defeated by the mysterious man so easily? Halfway through the stab with the long sword, he changed his move, his figure soared into the sky, hanging upside down in the air, and the sword energy poured down as he twisted his wrist.
The Cloud-Splitting Sword Technique and the Sky-Covering Style!
Lu Fan changed his tactics, and the mysterious man changed his tactics as soon as he saw them.
The two were fighting inextricably, sometimes swiftly, sometimes nimblely, sometimes fiercely, sometimes elegantly.
Fight from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the cliff and valley, and fight from the bottom of the cliff to the sky.
Lu Fan had fully understood the sword intent of Zhuifeng Sword Technique and Fenyun Sword Technique a few days ago, but he still couldn't defeat the mysterious man. Obviously, the mysterious man's sword realm was more advanced than his sword intent.
Lu Fan had a sword fight with a mysterious man for ten days, and was stabbed by hundreds of swords all over his body, until he could no longer hold on, fainted, and left the world of reality and fantasy.
Opening your eyes, the dawn light shines in from the window, reflecting the mottled light and shadow on the wall.
Still defeated!
Lu Fan was obviously not satisfied with this sword fight!
Pushing open the door, the early morning light rushed towards his face. Lu Fan exhaled happily, stepped out of the house, and ran towards the back hill, preparing to rehearse his experience in the sword fight with the mysterious man.
When I walked to the martial arts training ground, I saw my father and my third uncle walking side by side, both of them looking gloomy.
In his memory, he had never seen his father look like this before. Lu Fan guessed that something must have happened, so he went up to him.
After saluting, Lu Fan asked: "Father, what happened?"
Lu Yuntian gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Your grandfather was attacked by a mysterious man last night. His vitality was severely damaged. Your uncle is missing."
Grandpa is a Qi practitioner with the ninth level of Qi and has opened up the seven gates. Looking at the entire West City Guard, who can injure Grandpa?
Seeing his son's face full of doubts, Lu Yuntian knew his son's character and sighed, "Xiaofan, the end of the year is coming, and the city has been a bit uneasy recently. You like to practice swordplay alone in the back mountain, and I know that I can't persuade you."
, but you must be more careful in the future.”
"I know, kid!"
Seeing his father and third uncle leaving, Lu Fan secretly thought to himself that with his grandfather's cultivation, if he fought with others, there would be a lot of noise. Could it be that he didn't hear it last night because he entered the world of reality and fantasy.
Thinking about it again, if there is any movement, the masters in the family will hear the sound and rush there. No matter how powerful the opponent is, they will not be able to escape under the siege of many masters in the family.
From this point of view, the mysterious man who attacked Grandpa must have a much higher level of cultivation than Grandpa. He wounded Grandpa within three moves, so he was unable to make any big noise and then retreated.
Are there such masters in Xichengwei?
I also thought that my uncle's cultivation level was even higher than that of my grandfather, and he was missing.
Grandpa and uncle are the most cultivated people in the family. Now one is seriously injured and the other is missing. It seems that someone is targeting the Lu family.
What is attractive about the Lu family is naturally the Sword Guard Token!
It seems that someone is secretly eyeing the Sword Guard Token and wants to seize the position of City Lord of West City Guard!
