Jianwu Continent, Blue Maple City on the southwest border of Piaoyun Kingdom.
The Xing family, once one of the three major families in Blue Maple City, gradually fell into decline. All the heroes in the family fell away, and their former glory has become a thing of the past.
Just like the maple trees in Blue Maple City, they used to be brilliant and bright, no matter in spring, summer, autumn or winter, they would dress the city like a blue ocean. But now, not only the branches and leaves are withered, but also they are sparse, like the remnants of a defeated army stepping on the steps of a defeated general.
Facing the afterglow of the setting sun, even though my figure is very long, I always feel a little desolate and lonely.
As for the blue maple leaves of the maple trees, they first turned purple, and then gradually turned black. The residents of Blue Maple City could predict that these maple trees, which made Blue Maple City famous in Piaoyun Kingdom, would probably compete with the Xing family in the city.
In the same way, prosperity fades and leads to destruction.
The howling autumn wind picked up the black maple leaves on the ground, made them fly, and then crushed them ruthlessly.
In a side room deep in the Xingjia Mansion, a young man of fifteen or sixteen years old with a large bruise on his forehead was sitting cross-legged in meditation. Waves of looming mist gathered from all sides and slowly sank into him.
body of.
He should be practicing, but his expression looked a little painful, and his body was trembling slightly as he sat upright.
Incorporating the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into the body is the most common foundation-building practice method on the Jianwu Continent. But the strange thing is that after the young man absorbed the spiritual energy into his body, black haloes flashed endlessly on his body, and the young man spent all his energy to gather them together.
Most of the spiritual energy that came was dispersed.
puff!
The young man finally couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and his face instantly turned pale as a sheet.
Even so, he sat up straight again and re-entered the cultivation state with a determined look on his face, without even wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"Boy, if you practice like this and spend your whole life, I'm afraid you won't even be able to reach the first level of martial arts. You will be bullied and ridiculed by others at the level of a warrior for the rest of your life. Not to mention reaching the ultimate pinnacle of martial arts, I'm afraid you want to reach the top.
It is impossible for this small family to revive."
A wisp of black mist gushes out from the young man's sleeves and slowly condenses into the shadow of an old man in black robes in front of the young man. The old man has a complex smile on his face and looks like a senior master.
The young man is called Xing Nan, he is the young master of the Xing family, a declining family in Blue Maple City, and the only direct descendant of the Xing family.
Xing Nan ignored the words of the old man Xuying and continued to practice as usual, but the slight twitching of the corners of his lips proved that his state of mind had fluctuated.
"Although your boy does not belong to this world, I can see that for a long time, sixteen years have passed, and you have developed some feelings for this small family, especially your current grandfather, knowing that you cannot go back to the past.
You are regarded as your true elder. You have been practicing since you were four years old. You have worked extremely hard and practiced non-stop. It can be seen that you have already entered the drama. However, you, who was born with a demonic body, do not enter the demonic way, but practice the martial arts passed down by your family. When the spiritual energy enters the body,
Being ostracized, even if you work ten times as hard as others, you can't achieve half of what others have achieved, so why bother?"
The words of the old man Xuying were clearly heard in the young man's ears. Xing Nan finally opened his eyes and looked at the old man Xuying impatiently.
"How many times have you said these words? Over and over again, every day. You have been holding it in for so many years, but you haven't come up with a few fresh words?"
Perhaps because he was in a bad mood, Xing Nan had already stopped practicing and glared angrily at the shadowy old man in front of him and said angrily: "If it wasn't for you, old guy, how could I have come to this world and been bullied for no reason?
"
"Boy, you can't blame me for this. I can only blame you for being too curious. If you hadn't shed your blood on the Nine-ring Reincarnation Bracelet, you would still be the same person you were before."
The shadowy old man shook his head and continued: "But you're lucky, I wanted to arrest your soul to bear the seal of the Nine-ring Reincarnation Bracelet instead of me, but I protected your soul instead, and you were killed by the Nine-ring Reincarnation Bracelet.
The reincarnation bracelet actually retained the memory of the previous life when it was reincarnated. What's even more lucky for you kid is that others are born with only one soul essence, but you have two fusions, and you are born with a stronger soul than others."
"A natural soul with a strong soul has its uses. It's not just useless!" Xing Nan replied ungratefully.
"Haha, that's because you don't practice the demonic way. If you practiced the demonic way, with your qualifications and strength, after more than ten years of hard work, you would at least be in the realm of the demon spirit!" The old man Xuying said with a smile.
"You want me to be like those crazy dog-like demons who are so murderous and irrational? There is no way!" Xing Nan replied firmly.
"Haha, that's just the early stage of cultivating the demon path. It will be fine once you reach the realm of the demon king." The old man Xuying said with a nonchalant smile.
"Anyway, even if I'm reincarnated again, I won't practice magic!" Xing Nan said in an authentic tone.
"Then you can continue to live this kind of life of being bullied and laughed at all day long. If you go out today, you will only get a swollen face from someone. If you go out tomorrow, you will probably have your legs broken. The guy who beat you today is not
I have already said that I will beat you every time I see you in the future." The old man Xuying gloated.
Xing Nan felt his energy and blood rising, and another mouthful of blood came out.
In his previous life on the blue planet, his parents died young and he grew up in a kindergarten. This kind of poor background allowed him to develop an independent and determined character, but it also made him better than those with slightly better or better family backgrounds.
Better peers have higher self-esteem.
In this life, he has no father and no mother, but his strong self-esteem has been trampled on time and time again, so he will use so hard and almost abnormal practice to try to make progress and get rid of his current predicament.
It's a pity that God doesn't fulfill his wish!
Today he just kindly saved a weak girl who almost died under the wheels of a carriage, but was severely beaten by the owner of the carriage and his guards. This is why he got a large bruise on his forehead.
The carriage belonged to the Luo family in Blue Maple City, and the owner of the carriage was Luo Heng, the third young master of the Luo family.
Luo Heng and Xing Nan are similar in age. They have only practiced for more than ten years, but now they are already ninth-level warriors. They are only one step away from becoming a martial artist. They are known as martial arts geniuses that are rare in Blue Maple City in 500 years. Even
The famous Xuanwu Sect in Piaoyun Kingdom all sent invitations to him, hoping to include him in their sect.
As the old man Xuying said just now, Xing Nan has put in ten times the effort of Luo Heng, but his current strength is far less than half of Luo Heng. He is only a third-level warrior, and he can't even make a single move under Luo Heng.
.
If it weren't for Xing Nan's grandfather Xing Hao's intimidating power as a ninth-grade martial artist, Luo Heng and his guards would have killed the "meddling" Xing Nan on the streets today, with the support of the Luo family and the Xuanwu Sect.
, Luo Heng can almost run amok in this Blue Maple City.
Thinking of Luo Heng's arrogance and domineering behavior in front of him today, Xing Nan felt his teeth itching with hatred.
"Don't you have any other better way besides cultivating the devil's path? It's useless to claim that you were so powerful in the past. You don't have this little knowledge, right?"
Xing Nan tried his best to keep himself calm. Before he became stronger, all he could think about was watching the moon in the water.
"What else can you do? When the spiritual energy enters your innate demonic body, most of it will be rejected. Fortunately, your realm is too low now, so there is no big problem. You should know very well that the more spiritual energy contained in your body, the more likely it will be.
The more, the more dangerous it is for you. If you don’t practice magic, what else can you practice? Even if you are a swordsman monk, you have to absorb spiritual energy to get started, and you will have to rely on spiritual energy to cultivate your sword spirit in the future..."
At this point, the old man Xuying suddenly paused. After pondering for a moment, he suddenly smiled and said: "I suddenly thought of a method. Maybe you can try it."
"Oh? You're not trying to kill me again, are you?"
Xing Nan's eyes suddenly lit up at first, but then he became a little wary.
I remember that not long after I started practicing, I was deceived by this shadowy old man once, and I almost lost my life. Xing Nan never believed in this old man after that time, and he was not willing to say more than a word to him.
I am really too depressed and holding my breath today, so I wasted more saliva.
As for why the phantom old man wanted to kill himself, Xing Nan didn't know and had no way of inferring.
"I don't need to take care of your life. With your condition, it's just a fluke that you can live for another ten years."
The old man Xuying replied disdainfully, and then continued: "I will teach you the method now. You can decide for yourself whether you want to practice it or not."
After saying that, the shadowy old man waved his arm towards Xing Nan, and then turned into a black mist and got into Xing Nan's sleeves.
Xing Nan felt that there were some extra things in his memory. He closed his eyes and began to look up the extra memory contents.
The method taught by the old man Xuying is called "Sword-Eating Technique". It does not explain the type and grade. It only has the mental formula for practice and some points that need to be paid attention to during practice.
Practicing the Sword Devouring Technique requires a strong body. From this point of view, it should be a martial arts technique.
But the power of the Sword Devouring Art is that it can swallow the sword spirits of swordsmen of all levels, and the monks themselves have to practice swordsmanship, so it looks like the Sword Art of Kendo.
"No matter what kind of method it is, as long as it suits me!"
The Sword-Eating Technique is indeed suitable for Xing Nan who does not want to enter the devil's way, because practicing the Sword-Eating Technique does not require absorbing the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, but only needs to continuously devour the sword spirit.
The most important thing is that practicing the Sword Devouring Art can quickly improve your strength, which is what Xing Nan needs to pay more attention to.
According to the introduction of the technique taught by the old man Xuying, at the beginning of practicing the Sword-Eating Technique, you need to swallow a sword spirit to build the foundation and form a sword fetus in your body. The sword spirit swallowed later will melt into the sword fetus and strengthen the sword fetus.
Sword spirit, as the name suggests, is the spirit of sword soldiers. There is no sword spirit in ordinary sword soldiers. It can only be found in civilized true spirit level sword soldiers.
True spirit-level weapons are rare in Blue Maple City. Even the Luo family and the Xue family, which are still very powerful today, would be good if they each have one or two.
However, Xing Nan knew that the Xing family had a true spirit-level long sword called "Silent Shadow".
Since the Xing family is a martial arts family and does not practice swordsmanship, the Silent Shadow Sword is rarely used, but it is the only true spirit level treasure of the Xing family.
If you want Silent Shadow Sword, you naturally have to find your grandfather Xing Hao. Seeing the hope, Xing Nan seemed to have no extra patience. He jumped up and rushed out of the wing room.
