Relying on his powerful soul, eyesight, and physical strength, Tang Mang stood under the big tree, waving a fine iron sword in his hand.
Every time the sword is swung, the blade will accurately cut a fallen leaf into two pieces. In the shadow of the sword in the sky, all the falling leaves are broken into two pieces. In the effort of two breaths, the fine iron sword will
Dozens of fallen leaves were cut open.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
However, before the scattered leaves in the sky fell to the ground, Tang Mang concentrated on dancing with his sword. The sword came out, whether it was cutting or stabbing, chopping or teasing, all of which were basic swordsmanship.
Suddenly, the sky was filled with broken leaves!
By the time Tang Mang sheathed his sword and stood still, the falling leaves had already turned into countless broken leaves, piled up around him like dust.
Tang Mang didn't pay attention to the situation around him. He closed his eyes with his sword and recited the Great Freedom Purifying Mantra to get rid of distracting thoughts in his mind. When he opened his eyes, Tang Mang punched the tree trunk in front of him.
boom!
The big tree shook, and hundreds of leaves fell down.
"Buzz!"
The fine iron sword in his hand made a clear sound, and the sword light beside Tang Mang flashed. The fallen leaves that flew down first were silently broken into several pieces before they even touched the ground.
As the leaves fell more and more, Tang Mang's sword dance became faster and faster. By the time he used the last set of basic sword skills, the sword shadows were densely covered.
The requirement for basic swordsmanship is to be proficient in it. You can pick up a sword at will and use it like an arm.
As for the mastery of basic swordsmanship, the first requirement is to be fast, cruel and accurate. Be fast, absolutely fast! Be ruthless, absolutely very! Accurate, absolutely accurate! Hit wherever you point.
Tang Mang used fallen leaves to practice swordsmanship precisely to practice speed and accuracy.
On the mainland, there are not a few swordsmen who practice swordsmanship with fallen leaves, but if you want to practice swordsmanship with fallen leaves, you first need to have a strong will and be able to persevere year after year.
Tang Mang had a strong will and could endure hardships, not to mention his strong body and abundant physical strength. He could practice swordplay with fallen leaves all morning without getting tired.
Swish, swish, swish!
The sword light flickered continuously, and soon, Tang Mang sheathed his sword and stood up.
On the side, Tang Lin was shocked and said excitedly: "Tang Mang, have you mastered basic swordsmanship!?"
In the past few days, Tang Mang spent most of his time on the top of the Gravity Tower, but from morning to noon, he would stay under the big tree in the yard and practice basic swordsmanship with fallen leaves.
Tang Mang did not answer, took a deep breath, and said thoughtfully: "After practicing hard for several days, relying on my strong observation ability and strong physical body, my basic swordsmanship has improved a lot. I can do it without falling leaves, but
If you want to become a master of swordsmanship, this is far from enough."
As he was thinking about it, an idea flashed in his mind, and he suddenly said: "Tang Lin, go get a basin of water."
"Bring a basin of water?" Tang Lin was puzzled.
Tang Mang explained: "Falling leaves can indeed improve my swordsmanship, but the fallen leaves are too big after all. No matter how much I practice, it will be difficult to improve my swordsmanship."
"What, you mean to practice swordsmanship with water!?"
Tang Lin reacted and said in surprise.
Tang Mang nodded and said: "Yes, you pour water on me, and when I can make the water come out of the sword without touching my body, I'll be pretty good at basic swordsmanship."
"Here, do you really want me to splash water on you?" Tang Lin said with a bitter smile.
"bring it on."
Tang Mang's tone was firm and solemn: "If you want to make a difference in swordsmanship in the future, you must practice like me, otherwise, it will be difficult to achieve success."
"Okay, I'll bring you a basin of water."
Tang Lin said that he was about to leave, but soon, he had an idea and said with a smile: "I don't think I need to carry water."
"Oh?" Tang Mang was confused.
Tang Lin did not give in and said, "Not far from where we live, there is a valley with a large waterfall. If you want to practice swordsmanship, why not go there?"
"Uh, I didn't even think of this method."
Tang Mang was slightly startled, then asked about the location of the waterfall, and then said goodbye to Tang Lin.
…
The waterfall was indeed not far from his residence. In less than a few minutes of tea, Tang Mang arrived at a line of sky. According to Tang Lin, passing through a line of sky was a valley. Deep in the valley, there happened to be a large natural waterfall.
.
All the way to the outer reaches of the sky, Tang Mang was ready to cross.
But before he took a few steps, several girls walked out.
Seeing Tang Mang, he was stunned for a while, and then a pretty girl with red lips and white teeth shouted coldly: "Tang Mang, this is the place where Senior Sister Qingyu practices. What do you want to do here?"
"Well……"
Tang Mangdun stood there. He originally thought that the valley where the waterfall was located was an unclaimed land, but he did not expect that Mu Qingyu would practice in it.
"Aren't you leaving yet?"
Seeing that Tang Mang was silent, the pretty girl's face turned even more ugly.
Although the girls beside her did not speak, they all glared at Tang Mang.
Tang Mang didn't care about the pretty girl and said, "I'm just going to practice under the waterfall and won't disturb Mu Qingyu, so you can rest assured."
The pretty girl was about to answer when a pleasant voice came from within the sky.
"Xiaoru, let him come in."
Tang Mang recognized Mu Qingyu's voice, and the pretty girl naturally knew it was Mu Qingyu. Emei frowned slightly and said harshly to Tang Mang: "Tang Mang, you can practice, but if you dare to bully Senior Sister Qingyu
, our outer sect’s thousands of female disciples will never go around you.”
"I see."
Tang Mang responded calmly and stepped in.
The line of sky was not deep, so Tang Mang quickly passed through it and came to a valley.
The valley is not big, only a few miles in radius. But deep in the valley, there is a huge lake like a blue lens, and the waterfall Tang Lin mentioned is deep in the lake.
Tang Mang strode to the lake, raised his eyes and glanced around, only to see in the middle of the lake, Mu Qingyu, with long hair fluttering, standing motionless on the lake.
Surprise flashed in his eyes, and Tang Mang laughed loudly and said, "Senior Sister Qingyu, your water-walking skills seem to have improved a lot!"
Mu Qingyu tapped her toes lightly on the water, like a gentle step on the waves, and the fairy in the lake came to the lake in a blink of an eye.
Looking at Tang Mang beside him, Mu Qingyu was secretly surprised. Although he could not tell whether Tang Mang had made any progress in his cultivation, just having Tang Mang standing next to her gave her an aura that was hard to match.
Taking a deep breath, Mu Qingyu shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "I have indeed become better at Treading Water Wuhen, but I don't know how long it will take to practice hard to reach a great level."
Tang Mang nodded and said: "It is indeed difficult to achieve the great achievement of treading on water without leaving a trace, but senior sister, are you a little evasive and take it lightly? After all, a warrior's cultivation is more important. Once you break through to the Kaiyuan realm, you will be able to practice any physical and martial arts. I'm afraid it will be stronger."
There will be no trace left when you step on water.”
"Of course I understand what you're saying, but I have to master the ability to tread water without a trace."
"Why is this?"
"It's very simple. Only by achieving the great achievement of treading water without leaving a trace can I practice the secret skills passed down from my family."
"I see."
"What about you, what are you here to practice? It's not to practice my Tushui Wuhen, is it?"
"Ahem, don't get me wrong, I'm here to practice swordsmanship."
As Tang Mang spoke, he moved his body and rushed into the lake quickly. His toes touched the surface of the lake. His body was as light as a swallow and he was like a startled giant. Soon he came to the waterfall deep in the lake and stood on a huge rock.
