19. Chapter 19 The combination of force and speed
Just as Xia Huang's figure disappeared behind the closed door, a drunken figure appeared out of nowhere.
Seeing this drunken figure, the dean of the martial arts academy couldn't help but frowned: "Is there ever a time when I don't smell the smell of alcohol on you when we meet?"
"It's not the first day we met... burp... what's the big deal... burp!" the old man with rosacea said while hiccupping with wine, "do you know who this kid is?"
"Hmph! How could you not know? Isn't he Xia Datie's beloved adopted son who talks about him every day?"
"Since you know, you are still making things difficult for him." The old man with rosacea seemed to be very excited, shaking his head, "Xia Blacksmith doesn't want to meet him now, and deliberately hid outside. If he comes back, he will know
If something like this happens, the martial arts academy you have worked so hard to run will have to be demolished."
"Come here! I'm still afraid of him!" The old and skeletal dean raised his eyebrows, and the light in his eyes was like two unsheathed swords!
The old man with rosacea obviously didn't like the dean's attitude very much. He took the wine bottle from his waist and took another sip, shaking his head: "How old are you...how can you still act like a child?"
Zhiqi. You have made things difficult for Xia Huang in the academy these years, but Xia Huang has always endured it."
"So what?"
"I won't argue with you. I know what the third level of test is without even thinking about it. What kind of problems did you choose for him in the first two levels?"
"A very simple test, a combination of strength and speed." The old-fashioned dean replied with a serious face.
"It's indeed not a very difficult question, but you still went a little too far today. Although the question is not difficult, with Xia Huang's strength... the test in this channel is not something he can pass now.
If he can't get out of there, he might even die there..."
"Hmph! Don't worry! I have made adjustments and the difficulty has been reduced by more than half. If he is really a genius as Xia Dati said, he will only be seriously injured and lie down for ten and a half months at most. It will be nothing serious."
"Have you adjusted? I think you are deliberately using the name of this test to tell him the news about "Two of the Nine Heavens"... You... have a sharp mouth but a soft heart..."
"snort!"
…
In the passage, Xia Huang was cautiously advancing step by step along the central axis.
Xia Huang's pace was very slow. Although he didn't believe that the test set by the martial arts academy could be difficult or dangerous, it was always right to be cautious. This was also his consistent character.
The long passage was dark and lightless. Apart from Xia Huang's footsteps and the echo of their footsteps in the passage, there was no other sound. Xia Huang didn't know how long he walked along this road until his legs began to feel a trace of light.
Feeling exhausted, Xia Huang stopped and frowned in deep thought.
With the strength of his feet, his legs felt tired when he reached it, and he was already far away from Pingcheng. Is it possible for Wuyuan to build such a long underground tunnel with nothing? Think about it and you will know that it is impossible.
In the tunnel with no light and no visible objects, Xia Huang could not judge how far he had gone based on the changes in the environment.
"Why is there no light in the tunnel?" Xia Huang suddenly thought of this question.
Although according to the stingy character of the old-fashioned dean, it is most likely because he wanted to save money on oil lamps, but since this tunnel was used by the dean as a place of testing, it is obviously impossible to infer based on common sense.
"Could it be..." Xia Huang had a guess in his mind.
Since you can't find any reference to judge how far you have progressed, then create your own reference!
In the dark tunnel, Xia Huang reached out and took off the Jinghong Sword from his back together with the scabbard, stood beside him, then took the biggest stride, five steps forward in a row!
After five steps, Xia Huang tentatively touched his right hand. The familiar feel made him stunned!
It was obvious that he had taken five steps, but the Jinghong Sword was still by his side!
What's going on?
"Have I been standing still from the beginning?" Xia Huang didn't believe in evil, activated the true energy in his body, pushed his legs hard, and rushed forward at an explosive sprint speed!
After sprinting continuously for more than ten breaths, Xia Huang stopped and tentatively stretched out his right hand to the side and still touched the hilt of Jinghong Sword!
The difference is that this time, the location of Jinghong Sword seems to be about an inch further back than before.
"It turns out that this binding force is not endless. Since the power is limited, let me test how strong this power is!" Faced with this unprecedented challenge, Xia Huang suddenly became eager to win.
, raised the Jinghong Sword again, immediately unsheathed the sword, and touched the ground with its tip!
This time, Xia Huang instantly increased his speed to the limit!
When the speed increased to the limit, Xia Huang clearly felt that his back seemed to be tightly grabbed by a silk thread, and he could not break free from the shackles of this "silk thread". No need to think about it, this "silk thread" was the passage
The first level of the inner three-level test!
Due to Xia Huang's speed soaring, the tip of Diandi's sword rubbed against the hard ground, causing sparks to shoot out, becoming the only light in this dark tunnel!
"No! The speed is not fast enough! I can't get rid of this binding force!" Xia Huang judged his position through the sparks shooting out from the ground beside him.
Speed has always been one of Xia Huang's most confident points. Because from the beginning of sword training, his father often taught him that the way of forging lies in the skillful use of power, uniformity, and durability, while the way of swords lies in
Focus on the combination of strength and speed!
Therefore, Xia Huang has never failed to hone his speed. Now that his strength has skyrocketed to the sixth level of Qi Nourishing Realm, Xia Huang feels that his speed has reached an unprecedented height.
But what he didn't expect was that before he could become complacent about his speed, he suffered a setback in terms of speed.
Even though he had put all his true energy into his legs, he still couldn't reach a speed high enough to get rid of this restraint.
"The speed has reached its limit, can't it be faster?" Xia Huang was already gritting his teeth. The effect of his subjective will had reached its limit. No matter how hard he forced himself, his body could not speed up again.
"It would be great if there was a real secret that could increase speed... a real secret... why didn't I think of that?!" In the darkness, an ecstatic smile suddenly appeared on Xia Huang's face, "The Nine Heavens Secret can be used on the sword.
Yes, it is the Jiutian Sword. If it is used on a sword, it is the Jiutian Sword. What if it is used on the leg? Although "Nine Heavens One" records changes in weapons, it is written in the book that the principle of the Jiutian Jue is
The basic principle should also be applicable to the legs!"
As soon as Xia Huang thought of this, he immediately turned his thoughts into actions.
The true energy that was originally only blessed on his legs suddenly began to operate according to the principles of the Nine Heavens Art! For a moment, Xia Huang felt that his whole body had become lighter!
"Now, the speed can be increased again!" Feeling the changes in his body, Xia Huang became more and more confident. He pressed his true energy again, and the speed increased again!
If he competes with other Qi-nourishing realm experts in terms of speed, Xia Huang will be surprised to find that his current speed is already comparable to that of the ninth-level Qi-nourishing realm experts! This is enough strength to surpass his own.
A third level of speed!
Just when Xia Huang's speed increased to a new limit, Xia Huang was pulling on Xia Huang's back like a thread. The restraining force that prevented him from moving forward suddenly disappeared. Xia Huang was like a wild horse that had been running loose, running away in the blink of an eye.
No shadow.
After losing the restraints on his back, Xia Huang suddenly felt a solid feeling under his feet. This normal feeling made Xia Huang couldn't help but laugh at himself: "I must have been too nervous before.
I didn’t even realize that my feet were not firmly planted... Fortunately, this was just a test from the martial arts academy. If it were a fatal trap set by some life-and-death enemy, maybe I would have lost my life in vain because of such a small oversight."
After getting rid of the initial restraint, the passage was still dark and lightless, and there seemed to be no change at all.
After walking two or three hundred steps, Xia Huang finally saw a bright light in the distance, and it seemed that the passage had become slightly wider.
"We are reaching the end? Is the second level of test beyond the end of the passage?" Xia Huang guessed.
Perhaps because he heard Xia Huang talking to himself, two "click" sounds suddenly sounded in the passage, and then two stone walls rose up one after another, blocking Xia Huang's way forward and retreat.
!
And, this is far from the end!
"Rumble! Rumble..."
With a deafening loud noise, the ground where Xia Huang was standing began to rise continuously, and the speed was very fast!
"What's going on?" Xia Huang looked at his feet in surprise, then raised his head suddenly, "No! It's not just the feet! The top is also falling! And the left and right? What's going on? Surrounded from all sides
?”
The four stone walls above, below, left, and right are constantly squeezing into the middle. What is strange is that the four stone walls that should obviously collide with each other seem to be fused, and do not block each other's path forward.
Facing the rapidly squeezing walls from all sides, Xia Huang had no choice but to escape.
Without thinking carefully, Xia Huang subconsciously stuck the Jinghong Sword on his back on the ground, blocking the upper and lower stone walls. He quickly lay down and pressed his hands and feet against the left and right stone walls!
As one of the seven ancient swords, the Jinghong Sword itself is so hard. Even if the force on the stone wall is strong, it can't shake the Jinghong Sword in the slightest. But Xia Huang's feeling is not so relaxed. The power on the stone wall has already made him
Having reached the sixth level of Nourishing Qi Realm, he also felt great pressure, as if his leg and arm bones might break at any time due to being unable to withstand the force.
"Is this really a test that the martial arts academy can set?"
Xia Huang has no research on mechanism science, but it is certain that the people who set up these mechanisms must be far stronger than him now, and at least must be strong in the Concentration Realm. There are such strong people in the martial arts academy
