Shangguan Wushuang went to bed very early that night. After drinking tea and eating some solid food, he couldn't resist his tiredness. He took off his shoes and climbed into bed. He slept until the sun was up without even dreaming.

When she woke up and looked at the sunlight shining into the room, the young lady lazily got up, combed her hair and washed herself, opened the door, and saw that the master was no longer in the room.

There is a bowl of porridge and a few steamed cereals on the table in the teahouse.

After walking around upstairs but not finding the master, the young lady went back to the flower hall upstairs, picked up the porridge on the table and took a sip. She felt that it was still warm, thinking that the master must have left not long ago.

Picking up a piece of cereal and bringing it to his mouth, he accidentally saw two pots of green orchids placed on the table beside the door into the flower hall.

There are two white flowers among the branches and leaves, swaying gently in the morning breeze, and a faint floral fragrance spreads around the teahouse.

While drinking the porridge from the bowl, I thought that the master had just come back and picked flowers to grow. This was too soon.

This season is when all the flowers are about to fade, and it is rare to see blooming orchids. The young lady felt that this breakfast was also enjoyable.

The sadness of leaving home gradually faded away, but my heart still missed Li Ye, who was also practicing on the mountain.

After finishing the porridge in the bowl and eating a piece of potato, the young lady went downstairs with the plate in hand.

Walking out of the lake outside the house, only a few incomplete leaves of the lotus in the lake were left dangling with the waves on the water, which confused the young lady's thoughts.

Since leaving Fengyun City, the little sister's temperament seems to have grown up overnight, and she is no longer as crazy and wild as before. When she is alone, she often feels in a daze.

The wind on the mountain was strong and cool, so the young lady put on a coat and sat on the recliner that Xu Jingyun moved out yesterday, thinking about her own thoughts.

The Phoenix Sect is a sword sect. Except for the elders and disciples who practice elixirs, most of them practice swordsmanship. Occasionally, there are disciples who follow the elders in the sect to practice weapon refining, but after all, they are not the mainstream.

The young lady looked across the lake and saw disciples practicing swordplay on the edge of the lake. There were men and women. They were all older than herself. She was probably the youngest disciple in the sect.

Although there is "Qingluan Condensation" given by my husband, it is just like Li Ye's "Shadowless Dharmakaya". It is a mental method of Qi cultivation, not a sword method.

It seems that you have to find a master to learn the swordsmanship that suits your practice.

The young lady is wearing a white Luo skirt today, all in plain color, and the silk scarf that ties her hair is also white, with just a few apricot flowers embroidered on the skirt.

When she was shopping with Dongfang Yu'er in Sifang City, she bought several sets of white skirts and two leather jackets, also made of white fox fur.

Because Oriental Pearl accidentally told her: Girls who leave home should learn to cherish themselves and should no longer show off like they do at home.

The young lady thought about it carefully and looked at Dong Mingzhu in a white dress. She seemed to understand that she no longer wore a red skirt after leaving Sifang City.

She was already at the ninth level of Qi Gathering, and suddenly she was eager to try and dance with a sword, just like the disciples on the other side of the lake.

Using his hand as a sword, he gently picked up an orchid and stabbed it diagonally towards the branch by the lake.

Just as he was about to jump up, he heard movement behind him. He turned around and saw that it was his master Xu Jingyun who was walking behind him carrying a wooden sword.

The young lady was startled, stopped her gesture, and threw herself into the master's arms.

Xu Jingyun hugged the young lady, stroking her hair, and said softly: "You are almost at the foundation level, you should be more steady."

"The youngest disciples in the sect are now fifteen, and you will be the youngest from now on. Because you are young and cannot do tasks for the sect, so the training resources given to you will not be much. Fortunately, I basically

If you don’t need it, you can use mine from now on.”

"In the past few days, I have gone to collect this month's resources. You quickly break through to the Zhuqi realm, and then start to practice seriously. While practicing the "Qingluan Condensation" given to you by Mr. Mo, you practice swordsmanship.

"

"This wooden sword was given to me by the sect master when I was practicing before, and I give it to you now. If you want to practice swordsmanship well, start with this sword. The lady sword your father gave you should not be touched first.

Wait a few years until you reach a certain level in practice before changing your sword."

The young lady took the wooden sword handed over by the master and found it incomprehensible. She hurriedly said: "Master, do you think the senior sister across the lake doesn't practice with wooden swords?"

Xu Jingyun looked at the dazed young lady and asked her to move a stool from the room. After the two of them sat down, he explained some of the essentials of kendo to her in detail.

"In the art of swordsmanship, from ancient times to the present, people have used their swords to deviate and win by cleverness. There is also the art of swordsmanship that relies on strength to win, but the requirements for the sword, one's own realm, and the body are very high. Very few people

Go practice."

"Just like your current state, if you are given a heavy sword and you can't pick it up, how can you practice? As a girl, how can you get the strength if you haven't practiced in the physical body?"

"Therefore, the sword technique that is most suitable for you to practice at the moment is to move the sword gently. The so-called "lifting the sword as if it were heavy" means that you should practice the wooden sword in your hand as if it were a heavy sword, as if it weighs a thousand pounds and is waiting for you to practice.

Success, even if you only have a branch in your hand, it is better than a sharp sword."

"Wait until you break through to Jin Danzin, and your realm and physical strength increase, then you can find an epee to practice with. This will happen later."

"As long as you can lift light as if it is heavy, lift as light as heavy, and be light as heavy as possible, then your concept of kendo will become deeper and deeper. I estimate that Li Ye, his master, will also teach him to practice lifting light as heavy. 1

It's because he is younger than you and lacks physical strength. On the other hand, it is very difficult to find a good heavy sword."

"When Mr. Mo was communicating with me before, he told me that I need you to start by writing on the leaves with a sword. There are still some leaves by the lake, and there are many trees on the mountain that are evergreen all year round, and there will be no shortage of leaves."

"First pick up some leaves and bring them back, try to use your body's true energy to condense on the tip of the sword, and then write on the leaves. Be careful not to pierce the leaves. After you can carve words on the still leaves with the wooden sword,

, and then learn to carve words on the falling leaves.”

"Just these two things, you can practice quietly for several years. After you master it, you can also go down the mountain to find Li Ye, but I guess his swordsmanship will be stronger than yours by then.

.After all, he is talented, willing to endure hardship, and has a good husband."

"If there are senior sisters in the sect who come to play with you, you can just go, but you are not allowed to go down the mountain with them. Before you cultivate the golden elixir, you are not allowed to go down the mountain alone or with other senior sisters. Remember!"

"I am responsible for the general and his wife. If you violate them, I will punish you severely."

The young lady nodded and asked the master to promise to be obedient and not run down the mountain alone or with the senior sisters.

"Also, if you can't gather your true energy to carve words on the tip of the sword now, don't worry. You can practice "Qingluan Condensation" while slowly practicing carving. Sword training is not something that takes one or two years. Don't be in a hurry.

Come."

"I'll go get the resources. You can go pick up the leaves or practice by yourself. I'll find you again in the evening to see if I can raise your level to the foundation building level with the help of elixirs. In the sect

But there are no disciples in the Qi Gathering Realm.”

After saying that, Xu Jingyun stood up and went into the house to boil water and make tea.

The young lady was holding the sword in her hand, thinking about the master's words and not believing that she could not even tattoo leaves. So she turned around and walked out of the balcony of the wooden house and walked towards the lake. She wanted to try the sword in her hand.

I picked up a leaf from under the maple tree by the lake, spread it flat in my hand, looked at the lines on the leaf, and thought, isn't it just for engraving words on it?

The sword she held in her right hand held a sword flower, and she stabbed the leaf gently. She had already thought about it and carved the "Enlightenment of Rhythm" that Li Ye gave to her on the leaf.

What she didn't expect was that as soon as the tip of her sword touched the surface of the leaf, the yellow leaf burst into pieces without her even carving a single stroke.

The unwilling young lady picked a leaf from the tree that was not yet withered. She moved her body's true energy again, condensed it into the tip of the sword, and then gently carved it on the leaf surface in her hand.

This time it was a little better, leaving a shallow scratch on the leaf. When she tried harder to write another stroke, the tip of the sword pierced the leaf.

I tried more than a dozen pieces in a row, but they were all the same. They were either pierced or broken. The young lady collapsed a little and put away the wooden sword.

I took out my pocket knife and gently carved on the leaves.

This time it finally stopped cracking, and the young lady carved the word "wind" crookedly on the village leaf in the palm of her hand.

The young lady couldn't help but giggle. She stood up from the ground with her wooden sword in hand and looked at the wooden building.

I thought that it was not easy to carve words on leaves. I could just use a knife, but it wouldn't work with a wooden sword, and it probably wouldn't work with an iron sword.

Thinking about the master's words, you must persevere no matter how difficult it is. Xiao Li Ye can insist on practicing swordsmanship, but she must not be worse than him, or else she will always let him bully her in the future.

After all, the realm is still a little low. Fortunately, it is not a murder. If I practice in the sect for a longer time, I might be able to break through to Nascent Soul.

The short training time is the biggest flaw of the young lady right now. Even if she comes to Phoenix Mountain, there is no way to quickly make up for this flaw.

As Xu Jingyun said, practicing swordsmanship is not something that happens overnight and requires perseverance.

Isn't it just writing on leaves? If you can't do it in one day, practice for two days. If you can do it in one month, practice for two months.

If you practice for one or two years, you will eventually succeed.

He took out his handkerchief, wrapped a lot of leaves picked from the ground and trees, carried his sword, and walked towards the wooden house.

Since your cultivation level is not enough, you should first practice the "Qingluan Concentration" mental method for a while, and strive to improve your level in these two days.

Sword training is important, and you cannot relax when you break through the realm.
