Chapter 64 The Sword of the Practitioner
In another place on the viewing platform, a hint of joy suddenly flashed deep in Gu Xichun's eyes.
His eyes were also stuck on Ding Ning.
Although the bet outside the Qingteng Jianyuan Mountain Gate did not happen because of Xie Rou, many of his words had already been spoken. Ding Ning refining his qi for one month, and Xie Rou's swearing in public, the stories that happened in the past few days would definitely be widely circulated in Changling.
The better Ding Ning's performance, the more unbearable his performance in this story will be.
An unbearable reputation will bring countless adverse consequences for a practitioner who has not yet officially stepped onto the dynasty stage.
So seeing that this year's sword sacrifice trial was so difficult, and seeing that Ding Ning finally had a trap on his route at this time, his heart was filled with joy.
In his opinion, Ding Ning would never be able to pass this level.
Ding Ning will definitely be eliminated at the entrance of this Sword Sacrifice Canyon.
Li Daoji's expression was as usual at this time. Looking at the abnormal movements in the vine wall beside Ding Ning, he whispered in his heart: "You are so confident that you can't let me see you hanging up in this first level."
...
Ding Ning felt the abnormal movements in the vine wall around him earlier than anyone else.
His mind power can cover only a few feet of his body. Compared with the mind power of practitioners at the fifth realm of spiritual thought, it is even more pitifully weak, just like some subtle threads floating in the wind, but compared with practitioners at similar realms, his mind power is even more delicate.
Zhao Qing, not far from him, only felt the vines several feet behind them. He had already awakened when the vines just started to change. He even felt that deep in the vine wall, a stronger vitality was constantly injecting into a completely different vine.
With his true strength, he could draw his sword at this time to cut off the vine that had not yet accumulated power. However, he knew very well that if he did this, it would inevitably arouse the suspicion of those who watched the ceremony and bring countless troubles.
So at this moment, he just passed the many sword poses of the Wild Fire Sword Sutra in his mind, and then reached out to hold the hilt of the Mohua Can Sword.
At this time, the three green vines were just a few feet away from him.
This is a very reasonable distance.
So he set his sword.
The broken sword like a flat ruler slashed out like lightning. Because he had reached the second realm, many small and straight cracks on the sword's body suddenly filled with true energy, and many subtle and light sounds were made. Runes that were usually hidden in the dark green light on the sword's body were naturally lit up.
The white light stars flowed in the runes and floated upwards.
The dark green sword was like many white jasmine flowers blooming.
Some sad emotions suddenly surged deep in Ding Ning's eyes.
He never retreated and took off his sword, as if his end was already behind him.
A sword shadow was generated beside him.
All three green vines were broken.
...
Xie Changsheng seemed to see some kind of monster, his mouth suddenly opened to the extreme, revealing his deep throat.
Xie Rou's eyes were quickly filled with the flames of surprise.
An incredible breathing sounded on the viewing platform.
The smile that had just appeared on Gu Xichun's face froze, and it was indescribable.
At this moment, the vine wall beside Ding Ning trembled violently.
Dozens of shattered vine leaves were sprayed out first, and then a thick vine that even flashed with a metallic luster stabbed Ding Ning's chest like a sharp sword.
The powerful power of this thick vine even brought out a stream of romanticism that could be seen in the naked eye.
However, Ding Ning did not retreat but advanced.
His rear is indeed the end.
Because at this time several thin vines had already emerged from the fallen leaves behind him.
It was just because of his progress in this moment that he opened the distance between him and these thin vines.
The broken sword in his hand weaved a dense sword shadow again.
As he moved forward, vines continued to fly up, flying around him like shavings drawn by a carpenter.
And the thick vine, which was obviously above him, could never entangle him.
As another sound of air-conditioning sounded, the thick vine suddenly cracked, cracked into several white threads, and spread softly in front of him.
Ding Ning turned around calmly and waved his sword.
Several thin vines that were rushing up on the ground were swept off with his sword.
No vines appeared around him again, and he put away his sword and continued to move forward.
...
In an inconspicuous corner on the viewing platform, Xue Wangxu once again pulled off several white beards.
He heard Li Daoji say that Ding Ning had a deep understanding of the Wild Fire Sword Sutra, and he had already gained the charm of using the sword. Before this sword sacrifice trial, he did not ask Ding Ning to use the sword in front of him. After all, at his age, he often seemed to be entertaining himself, and it was interesting to keep some expectations in many things.
However, he never expected that Ding Ning would have mastered the Wild Fire Sword Sutra to this extent!
Li Daoji's face still had no change, but his eyes were full of pride. He thought to himself that these swords were there, which of the students present in these places of practice could master such a state in such a short time?
As the thick vine was cut into several strands of white silk by Ding Ning, Gu Xichun's face changed from pale to blood red, as if he had been slapped twice in the face.
He was much better than the students in other colleges on the viewing platform at this moment, so he knew better what happened in the short counting time.
Ding Ning used several sword moves such as slash, drag, and reverse pick to cut off the three green vines. Then he used several more exquisite sword moves, such as slashing, lead belt, and knocking to remove the hard skin of the thick vine, and brought the thick vine to no longer be wrapped around him.
Finally, the splitting from the vine tip is even more clever and straight slashing, which is entirely precise.
When his strength was not even as strong as that thick vine, he gave people such a relaxed feeling that breaking the combined attack of these vines was entirely due to the excellent use of this complicated sword style.
But how is this possible!
Even if ordinary practitioners spend a year practicing this sword sutra, they may not be able to do this level.
It’s just a month, how can you master this level!
"This is impossible!"
Many incredible calls sounded, as if they were shouting out the voice of their hearts for him.
Xie Changsheng was also one of the people who exclaimed.
"It's impossible."
The porcelain-like brilliance on Xie Rou's face became increasingly strong. She glanced at Xie Changsheng and said seriously: "Unless he is really a genius and monster like some people in the Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect."
...
Ding Ning had already walked dozens of steps forward.
After leaving the distance closest to the entrance, the number of traps seemed to be a little smaller, and most of the students who were about the same depth as him were not immediately attacked by vines.
However, the shock was still spreading on the viewing platform.
Among the dozens of people who are qualified to be true disciples of Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect every year, there are all kinds of geniuses. Some people have never touched swords, but when they first touched the sword, those swords were naturally as flexible as their arms and fingers in their hands.
It’s just that those people are too far away from college students like them.
Because those geniuses are just legends.
The dozens of people selected from the entire Qin Dynasty, many vassal states and out of the territory were countless distances from them.
These people can use all the resources that the Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect can provide to practice. They can freely enter many forbidden areas of the Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect.
Students from these sects must first win some competitions within this sect before they can represent the sect to participate in the sword meeting of Minshan Sword Sect or Lingxu Sword Sect.
Even if they can go through countless rounds of elimination and eventually become one of the few people who won the Sword Association, they can only rely on the holy grace to obtain a brief opportunity to enter the Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect to practice.
If you want to go further or enter some forbidden areas of Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect, you still need to participate in the competition between Minshan Sword Sect and Lingxu Sword Sect.
Being able to overcome these countless distances is only close to those true true disciples... So how can these students who watch the ceremony believe that Ding Ning can have the same talent as those true disciples?
Gu Xichun couldn't believe it, so he naturally found a reason for his belief that he could bear it.
It must be Li Daoji or Xue Wangxu who spent a lot of time on him personally. After all, this Wildfire Sword Sutra is just complicated in sword style, not like some particularly mysterious sword sutras. It is difficult to comprehend the way of cooperation between true qi or true energy.
Ding Ning is still moving forward calmly.
However, the eyes of many people on the viewing platform fell on Xie Rou and Gu Xichun.
Although they couldn't believe it, they couldn't help but think that if Ding Ning really had such a terrible talent, Xie Rou's oath would have established a unique connection between herself and Ding Ning first. At the same time, she did not take Ding Ning seriously at the gate of the mountain, and did not even feel that Gu Xichun on the same level as Ding Ning, how should she deal with herself?
Feeling the gazes of everyone around him, Gu Xichun's emotions were inexplicably uncontrollable. He couldn't help but say coldly: "No matter how flexible the vine is, it is not as good as the sword of a cultivator."
Xu Heshan's brows frowned deeply.
Young people are naturally more angry.
He felt that it was understandable that Gu Xichun didn't understand Ding Ning at all and had never seen Ding Ning with his own eyes. After all, Gu Xichun was the best student in Yingshan Sword Cave for decades. He practiced for one month and broke through to the second level of Qi Refining in just three months.
Among all the students present today, Gu Xichun should be the strongest, and she is more than one more powerful.
However, Xu Heshan believes that since Ding Ning has really achieved one month of Qi refining and has shown amazing sword skills just now, Ding Ning has proved his ability enough.
"It would be boring to say that."
So he couldn't help but speak out.
He looked at Gu Xichun and said coldly: "At least from everything Ding Ning has shown, he has surpassed the vast majority of people present. If you look down on him, you will look down on all of us. Moreover, don't speak too much at any time, because if he faces the sword of a practitioner next, it will be easier for you to not get out of Taiwan."
Xu Heshan's words were already very rude. In addition to the coldness of Gu Xichun's eyebrows, some evil spirits could not help but reveal.
His lips opened slightly, but he didn't say anything for a moment.
Because at this moment, he and all the viewers saw that Ding Ning and a rushing student were getting closer and closer, and the two would meet.
Chapter completed!
