Chapter 42: Sword Practice in the Cold Night

After Ling Chen returned to the room, he was not in a hurry to rest. Instead, he sat cross-legged by the bed and started practicing.

Today's battle was not difficult for Ling Chen. He easily won with his exquisite swordsmanship, which made him more confident for a moment.

Strangely enough, when he was performing the nameless sword technique on the ring today, Ling Chen clearly felt that the profound energy in his body seemed to be flowing rapidly.

Although he intentionally suppressed the profound energy in his Dantian within his body, when he performed the nameless sword technique, the profound energy in his Dantian seemed to be drawn by some kind of force, flowing crazily through the meridians in his body.

Every change of sword moves caused a surge of profound energy in the Dantian. This strange feeling made Ling Chen feel a little confused.

And when he walked off the ring, he clearly felt that the profound energy in his body seemed to have increased a little out of thin air. And this extra mysterious energy seemed to be produced by the Wuming sword technique.

Taking a deep breath, Ling Chen closed his eyes and looked inside. The meridians in his body were instantly visible. This time, he could even vaguely see the blood flowing in the meridians.

With a thought in his heart, Ling Chen's anger sank into his dantian, and he began to recall the first move of the nameless swordsmanship - a sword piercing the river.

As soon as this idea came to his mind, a picture suddenly appeared in front of Ling Chen's eyes.

On the screen, forty-nine little bloody figures were arranged in seven rows and seven columns, exactly the same as the picture that had appeared in Ling Chen's mind before.

This sudden scene shocked Ling Chen. He never expected that this scene would suddenly appear again.

Without any hesitation, Ling Chen learned from his experience this time and concentrated on memorizing the sword moves of those bloody villains.

The first time, Ling Chen easily memorized the changes in sword moves in the second and third columns.

When the bloody villain started his second demonstration, Ling Chen clearly felt that his speed was much faster than before. But Ling Chen still quickly memorized the changes of the seven sword moves in the fourth column, and used the second,

All the changes in sword moves in the third and fourth columns were merged together and memorized as a whole.

But for the third time, the speed of the swords drawn by those bloody villains was many times faster than the first time. Even though Ling Chen had integrated all his mind into the picture, he still could only barely remember the fifth column.

The seven sword moves changed, and then the scene in front of him disappeared.

This time, Ling Chen memorized the changes of four sword moves in three demonstrations, which made him very excited.

For the sake of safety, Ling Chen opened his eyes and quickly wrote down the changes of the twenty-eight sword moves just now.

After doing all this, Ling Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief. In addition to the seven sword moves he had memorized before, Ling Chen had already mastered the forty-nine sword moves of the first style of the Nameless Sword Technique.

Thirty five kinds.

But this is only the most direct forty-nine variations of the Sword Crossing the River style. If these forty-nine sword moves are rearranged out of sequence, 2,401 sword techniques can be derived.

According to this, if Ling Chen could master all the first to seventh moves of this nameless sword technique, he could derive 16,807 completely different sword techniques.

In this way, once Ling Chen mastered all the nameless sword techniques, he would have more than 10,000 exquisite and unpredictable sword moves.

Although he was overjoyed, Ling Chen didn't think too much and couldn't wait to sit down cross-legged again and start practicing.

According to Ling Chen's idea, he first integrated the seven changes of sword moves in the second column. In this way, it might be useful in tomorrow's game.

It's almost early in the morning, most people have gone to bed, and Ling Chen can't go to the martial arts training ground to practice his sword.

After hesitating again and again, Ling Chen finally gritted his teeth, quietly left the room with his sword, and then closed the door.

The night was very quiet at this time, and except for the occasional chirping of insects, there was almost no other sound.

Fortunately, the moonlight tonight was relatively bright, so Ling Chen successfully reached under a high wall of the Swordsman's Courtyard.

Climbing over this wall is the road leading to the back mountain of Lingwu Academy.

After looking around, and confirming that no one was there, Ling Chen took a deep breath, and the profound energy in his body circulated rapidly. He tapped his toes, jumped up, and easily climbed over the high wall.

After landing, Ling Chen quickly identified the direction, and then ran towards the cliff in the back mountain.

Ling Chen's idea was very simple. He would take advantage of the moonlight to practice his sword and strive to make a breakthrough before tomorrow's competition.

If anyone saw it at this time, they would definitely be shocked.

On the mountain road, a black shadow moved quickly, sometimes jumping and flying, sometimes bending and walking through. At first glance, it looked like an agile ape, prancing forward in the mountain forest.

Soon, Ling Chen came to the cliff of the back mountain.

The cool moonlight shines through the gaps between the branches, reflecting on Ling Chen's slightly childish face. Everything looks so harmonious.

In this season, the humidity in the forest at night is very heavy, frost and dew cling to the grass blades, greedily enjoying the quiet night.

Ling Chen let out a breath, looked around for a few times, then took out his long sword and started to swing it.

It would be easier to complete each move of this nameless swordsmanship if practiced separately, but it would be more difficult to practice the seven changes in a row.

However, these are no longer a problem in front of Ling Chen, because for every move, he will swing the sword hundreds of times in a row, and he will not stop until he has mastered this move.

This is what makes Ling Chen different from other sword practitioners.

Some sword practitioners only focus on the speed of practice. In order to make sword moves quick, the sword intention contained in many sword moves itself is abandoned.

In the end, the swordsmanship they practiced could only be grotesque, but had no sword meaning at all. Therefore, throughout their lives, they could only practice to the level of sword masters and never make any progress.

In Ling Chen's opinion, no matter how powerful the sword technique is, no matter how many mysterious and unpredictable changes it has, each move is composed of the most basic sword moves.

Chopping, cutting, picking up hooks and thorns, piercing, sweeping, and collapsing clouds.

These fourteen simplest sword movements are the basis of all sword techniques. Just like if you want to build a mansion, you must have bricks, wood, and earth.

No matter how complicated the sword moves are, no matter how exquisite the moves are, they are all composed of these fourteen basic sword moves. Only by practicing each of these fourteen sword moves to the point of proficiency can you practice swordsmanship in the future.

Made great progress.

As for Ling Chen, he is the one with such advantages.

Since he was born without a martial spirit, the sword moves he has been practicing every day since he was six years old are these fourteen simplest and basic sword moves.

In the eyes of others, these sword moves are the most basic moves for sword practitioners, but Ling Chen practiced them repeatedly day after day, year after year.
