In the evening, the sun sets in the blink of an eye.

A wisp of cool wind blew across the sword body and extended to the edge of the sword, only an inch away from Gu Wen's neck.

Xiao Yunyi said coldly: "You lost again."

[The third level of the Buddhist sword, inspired by the true meaning of the broken sword, minus twenty years of the heavenly marrow, takes twenty-five years to complete]

[The third level of the magic sword, inspired by the true meaning of the broken sword, minus five years of heavenly marrow, it takes ten years of heavenly marrow to form it]

[The Jade Sword Dharma, inspired by the true meaning of the broken sword, minus forty years of heavenly marrow, it takes forty years of heavenly marrow to form]

Isn’t this nonsense? The sixth level of Taoism has perfected me and I have reached the fourth level of Taoism.

Gu Wen complained inwardly, but considering the huge Tianmui discount, he didn't complain too much.

After taking a look at his depleted mana, he waved his hand and said, "No more practice, no more practice, sword training is too much."

"You will be punished by the Dharma Master if you let Zhejian Mountain go."

Xiao Yunyi sheathed her sword and was not too harsh on Gu Wen, because the other party's achievements far exceeded his imagination.

He didn't know that Gu Wen had a destiny, but Xiao Yunyi could sense that Gu Wen's swordsmanship was steadily improving. A quick start is the norm for geniuses, and an equally fast breakthrough is not the work of a genius.

In the initial stage of each level of martial arts, Xiao Yunyi's cultivation speed was more than three times faster than that of Gu Wen. He could even master the first three levels of some Mahayana swordsmanship at a glance.

Because swordsmanship has the same goal in different ways, exerting force, magic techniques, condensing swords, controlling swords, sword intention, etc., as they go higher and higher, the biggest difference is only in the physical and magical powers.

What's more, if he didn't have such talent, he wouldn't be able to become the number one genius in Zhejian Mountain or even the current generation.

But Xiao Yunyi couldn't do what Gu Wen did, and his breakthrough speed was the same as his cultivation speed. Instead, he would get stuck, and the Three Sword Techniques stuck him for a year.

Xiao Yunyi couldn't explain what was strange about him, because Gu Wen didn't reach the sky in one step like an initiation, he just improved his cultivation quickly without bottlenecks.

Gu Wen was surprised and said: "My mana has been exhausted. Will I get injured if I continue to practice in this situation?"

Cultivation is not martial arts training. Moves and power-generating skills are no longer important. What matters more is the application of mana and magic formulas. What else can you practice if you have no mana?

"There are not a few disciples of Zhejian Mountain who die every year practicing swordsmanship. Most of them don't have your desire to seek the truth. Their persistence is just that they have put in the effort and don't want to give up. Some even just enjoy the praise of their elders and pretend to work hard.

The appearance of practicing swordsmanship."

Xiao Yunyi changed his voice and said: "But life-defying training is always useful. It can at least allow the disciple to improve to a small level."

Not everyone is a genius, and there are also late bloomers in the spiritual world. The sect needs a large number of middle- and lower-level disciples to maintain it.

Otherwise, recruiting disciples, managing spiritual fields, ordinary cities, etc.,

“Sunk costs and false effort?”

"That's a very good overview. I guess you've never entered the gate of Sanqing Mountain, right?"

Xiao Yunyi asked suddenly, and Gu Wen smiled and said: "I am just a frog in the well. I have never been to Tianwaitian, let alone Sanqing Mountain?"

"Then after you go out, do you want to come to my Zhejian Mountain? We will treat each other as heirs."

As soon as he finished speaking, a chill crept up on his forehead. Xiao Yunyi looked around and saw no sign of him, and suddenly he had a clear realization in his heart.

Nowadays, the only person with such strength in Luoshui is the Taoist goddess, but he didn't expect that the other party would pay such close attention to her.

Could it be that you are staring at this place all the time?

Gu Wen shook his head and said: "If you had told me a month earlier, I might have been really moved. I'd better go to Sanqing Mountain to seek the position of Yuqing Heavenly Lord."

He does not resist joining a sect, and even prefers to lean against a big tree to enjoy the shade. But if you want to choose a sect, it is naturally the Sanqing Taoist sect. The students come from the same origin and are related, and the Taoist sect's behavior is not bad.

If you don’t go to the No. 1 sect in the world, why go to Zhejian Mountain, a place you’re not familiar with?

Xiao Yunyi was quite sorry, but did not dare to persuade her any more. She glanced at the sun that had completely set and said, "Let's stop here today."

——

Back at the inn, Gu Wen clearly felt the little nun in the corner looking at him, but he ignored it and went upstairs to find Yu Hua and told the story.

He didn't ask before because he was avoiding taboos. It was impossible for Gu Wen to directly ask Xiao Yunyi what kind of exercises he practiced. This would be like asking someone's bank card number and deposit on the street.

Yu Hua quietly flipped through the book. He was not surprised when he heard that Xiao Yunyi had passed three levels in a row. He said without raising his head:

"The method of breaking the sword to hold down the mountain is not the true solution to the sword. Sword Master does not only have the true solution to the sword. He also has another method, the sword-folding method."

Gu Wen asked: "This method can make people break through quickly?"

"It's not possible. The reason why Xiao Yunyi can break through the third level in a row is because his foundation is too deep."

Yu Hua put down the book in his hand and began to explain the Zhejianshan method to Gu Wen seriously.

"The Broken Sword Technique, as the name suggests, is to break the sword techniques you have learned and use them as nutrients for your own swordsmanship. Therefore, the disciples of Broken Sword Mountain will practice many sword techniques, and then break them one by one and turn them into nutrients. You can use these learned sword techniques as another

There is only a transformation between them."

Can the swordsmanship you practice be transformed into cultivation? Then if I learn it, won’t I be able to transform the heavenly marrow into cultivation more quickly and efficiently?

Gu Wen couldn't help but have such an idea pop up in his mind, and then he became alert to the possible harm in it.

There is no quick and good way to practice in the world.

"So what's the price?"

Yu Hua replied: "Your swordsmanship must surpass the broken swordsmanship, but it cannot be surpassed from the beginning."

Sure enough, it has its difficulties, so it seems that I can't practice the sword-breaking technique.

Gu Wen understood and regretted that there was no better swordsmanship in the world than the true solution of swordsmanship.

Even if he existed, he wouldn't be able to spend a lot of effort to learn it and then break it and turn it into nutrients. In this case, it would be better to practice the Tao foundation honestly.

Suddenly he noticed a question and said: "So Xiao Yunyi's swordsmanship has surpassed the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon?"

"Only surpassing the first six levels, he broke the first six levels of the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon, and then he reached the realm of the third level of heaven. And he was originally the number one in the contemporary world, but he was delayed because of his obsession."

Yu Hua corrected, and Gu Wen gradually understood the cause and effect, and could also understand why Xiao Yunyi was able to reach the third level in one step.

This is not cheating or taking drugs, but he has already accumulated to this point.

"From this point of view, it is not certain who will win or lose in Quanshan that day. Xiao Yunyi may be able to win the first place and defeat everyone to return to the top."

Gu Wen touched his chin and suddenly felt something interesting. Dragon King Xiao Yunyi, who had been beaten and kicked by everyone for a long time, returned.

Naturally, he didn't want to get involved in the battle. He was only responsible for bringing Yu Hua up from the beginning.

Now that I am at the fourth level of Taoism, and everyone else has started at the sixth level of Taoism, they are all capable of punching the true king and kicking the genius monsters.

"In any case, he is no longer as good as you. He is just a loser. With his sword skills and his true understanding of the sword, no one can beat him."

Yu Hua always has a venomous tongue towards others, and her judgment is rarely wrong.

Xiao Yunyi himself thought so too, but he believed in the true meaning of swordsmanship, while she believed in Gu Wen.

"You go and practice. Tianquan Mountain will open in three days. Maybe you can get a glimpse of the fairy sword."

Even Yu Hua was looking forward to it. This was a rare sword that could only be seen in millions of years.

Gu Wen touched his chin, wondering how much Heavenly Essence could be reduced by just one glance at the Immortal Sword.

Since he is a being who can be regarded as an immortal with just one sword, will it have the effect of greatly improving his swordsmanship just by looking at him?

——

In the middle of the night, Gu Wen went into meditation to practice.

Xiao Yunyi didn't know whether he was really stupid or crazy about swords. He never had any reservations about Gu Wen's teachings. From the decrease in the Heavenly Essence required for swordsmanship, it can be seen that if he had reservations, it would not be possible to reduce it so much.

Because when Gu Wen went to pick up other people's wool before, many people could only pick it up for a while, and if he asked more questions, they would be hesitant and prevaricated.

On the contrary, Xiao Yunyi, Lan Yongning, Chi Yuzi, Jun Yan and other top talents have no reservations, because they have faith and are not afraid of being surpassed by others. If they could be surpassed so easily, they would not be called the strongest in the contemporary era.

For example, Chi Yuzi's sword control method, Lan Yongning's sword turning with pen and ink, and Jun Yan's sword energy turning into thousands.

What Gu Wen learned was just by analogy, and he never thought of secretly learning other methods. He only asked for advice, and only learned from the outstanding ones, and finally found his own invincible path.

Look inside the three swords of Buddhism, Taoism and Demon, and the Heavenly Essence.

【Ninety Years of Heavenly Essence】

The Buddhist sword requires twenty-five years, the demonic sword requires ten years, and the jade sword requires forty years.

The total added up is enough to practice the third level of the true solution of the sword and the jade sword method, and there is a high probability that there will be dozens of days of heavenly marrow left. Gu Wen can practice the soul by saving up the sacred tree friends next month.

.

With the fourth level of perfection and the true understanding of swordsmanship, it should be no problem to rank fifth in the personal rankings.

Going up a level further, Gu Wen felt that he had to reach the sixth level of Taoism. People like Chi Yuzi were not bad at all. They were much better than him in some aspects, and they themselves also practiced the method of becoming immortals.

"The true understanding of the way of the sword, I will try the sound of the sword in three days."

The first is the Demonic Sword, the ultimate sword concentration and the strongest swordsmanship.

After ten years of Heavenly Essence falling, the dark demonic sword's form grew faster and faster visible to the naked eye, and the demonic sword's sword intention appeared.

Twenty-five years after the Heavenly Essence fell, the Buddha's light was vast, and the Buddha's sword and sword intention appeared, mixed with the subtle sound of chanting sutras.

[The third level of the magic sword, the sword’s intention first appears]
