After clearing away the piled rocks, a sarcophagus that was not very large was revealed.
Song Xuan bowed again, saying he was offended, and then opened the sarcophagus.
Amidst the clanging sound, the scene inside the sarcophagus came into view.
Inside, there was no body, only a book of secrets made of an unknown material that looked a little yellow, lying quietly at the bottom of the coffin, as if waiting for future generations to wipe away the dust.
Song Xuan raised his hand, and the secret book fell into his hand. He gently blew the dust on it, and the big characters "Dugu Nine Swords" came into view.
"As expected!"
Song Xuan looked happy, and then couldn't help laughing a few times.
Yang Guo had been to this valley before, but he only took away the Dark Iron Heavy Sword and did not get the secret book of Dugu Nine Swords.
But it happened that Feng Qingyang, a later generation, displayed the unique swordsmanship of Dugu Nine Swords. Where did this swordsmanship come from is somewhat intriguing.
Whether it was taught to him by others or found by himself, no matter what, the most critical step is indispensable - digging a grave!
Only this time, Song Xuan was ahead of schedule.
Taking a deep breath, he unfolded the secret book. The first page was the Sword Art Finals.
"Returning to younger sisters tends to Wuwu, Wuwu tends to be the same person, and the same people tend to be great. A turns to C, B turns to Geng, Geng turns to Gui. The friendship between Zi and Chou, the friendship between Chen and Si, the friendship between Wuwei, wind and thunder are all changes, and the mountains and rivers are changing.
It’s a change, water and fire are a change.”
The core of the general secret of swordsmanship lies in the word "bian". Once you practice it to perfection, you can have up to 360 variations with one sword strike.
Song Xuan was speechless. Not to mention the three hundred and sixty variations, one sword contained thirty-six variations. In this arena, that was considered a peerless swordsmanship.
Flipping through the pages, what follows is the specific cultivation method of Dugu Nine Swords.
Generally speaking, this sword technique includes nine techniques, including the final form, the sword-breaking form, the sword-breaking form, and the qi-breaking form. It can defeat all the martial arts in the world. With one sword strike, the enemy will have all flaws in your eyes!
Song Xuan did not rush to practice, but sat cross-legged in the cave and began to comprehend.
This swordsmanship is all-encompassing and requires extremely high levels of understanding. People who are not extremely talented in swordsmanship cannot practice it at all. Otherwise, if you memorize it and practice it forcefully, you will only fall behind.
This swordsmanship emphasizes sword intention and light moves, and incorporates the concept of victory without moves but with moves. It only attacks but not defends, and moves to attack the enemy unprepared. Simply put, this is a swordsmanship that exists purely for killing!
At this stage, Song Xuan, who possesses the Nine Yang Divine Art and has endless internal energy, lacks the most top-notch killing skills!
In the cave, Song Xuan studied swordsmanship and sat there for three days.
Three days later, he stood up suddenly, his aura suddenly changed. His whole person was like an unsheathed sword, sharp and formidable, giving people heavy pressure.
Then, the long sword was unsheathed. At this moment, Song Xuan's body was like a swimming dragon, and his sword was like a terrifying giant. He used the sword-breaking style, the breaking sword style, and the Dugu Nine Swords and nine styles of swordsmanship in his hands one by one.
Looking around, there are sword lights and sword shadows everywhere in the cave. It seems that there are swords everywhere, but it seems that they are all feints everywhere, and it is impossible to tell the reality.
Keng!
After the long sword was returned to its sheath and a set of sword techniques was executed smoothly and smoothly, Song Xuan let out a long breath and suddenly felt relaxed and happy, and his whole body was clear.
The swordsman's talent was fully demonstrated at this moment.
He previously practiced Tai Chi in Wudang Mountain. In half a year, his practice speed could not be considered slow, but it was not fast either.
But at this moment, in this cave, after only three days of meditating on swordsmanship, he can perform this swordsmanship with great proficiency and smoothness.
Skip the introductory stage directly and enter the realm of success!
It would not be an exaggeration to say that this speed is shocking.
Putting the secret book in his arms, Song Xuan covered the sarcophagus, piled up the rubble, and then bowed to the so-called tomb again.
"Senior, please accept my respects from this junior!"
After receiving benefits from others, he naturally had to express his thanks. After paying homage three times in succession, Song Xuan looked at the tomb and couldn't help but shake his head.
There is no body of Dugu Qiubai in the coffin. So, where did the senior sword demon who wanted to be defeated but could not get it, gone?
Wu broke through the void, and the sun soared?
This guess seems not impossible.
This thought only flashed through his mind, and then his attention was distracted by the feeling of hunger in his belly.
Although the physical fitness of warriors is far superior to that of ordinary people, it will not be a serious problem if they do not eat or drink for a few days.
But the feeling of hunger is real, and it doesn’t mean you can’t feel hungry just because your internal strength is high.
After all, you are just practicing martial arts, not cultivating immortals, and you are far from qualified.
After walking out of the cave, Song Xuan found some non-toxic mountain fruits in the forest and simply filled his stomach. Then he caught two hares and brought them back to the valley to grill.
These days, there are not as many condiments for barbecue as in later generations, but even so, the roasted rabbit, which is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and sizzling with golden fat, really makes Song Xuan's appetite gorge.
After eating two roast rabbits, he leaned against the wall comfortably and lazily looked at the clouds rolling in the sky, feeling a bit like a reclusive master.
But then, he quickly stood up and suppressed the lazy thought that had just arisen.
He has not even achieved the goal of becoming invincible in the world, nor has he experienced the invincible state of mind that only requires defeat but cannot be achieved. He is still a reclusive expert and a mere woolly figure in the world!
The days that followed were plain and boring.
Practice the Dugu Nine Swords during the day, and use the Nine Yang Sutra mind method at night to polish your inner strength and improve your cultivation.
From time to time, he would come to the cave, look at the handwriting left by Dugu Qiubai on the stone wall, and feel the sword intention left in the handwriting, and then make himself exhausted and dizzy before he would give up.
Days passed day by day, early spring, midsummer, cool autumn, cold winter, for Song Xuan, they could not stop his will to practice and become stronger.
The green gown on his body has been severely damaged by practicing day after day.
Even in order to prevent his clothes from being completely ruined, he spent most of the time taking off his clothes, leaving his body naked in this deserted valley, practicing sword skills, polishing his internal strength, and comprehending the sword's intention.
Over time, he even fell in love with this feeling of being without clothes, close to nature, and unrestrained.
His beard sprouted out, and his hair, which was originally shawl, fell to his waist, but he did not take care of it. His beard was unkempt and his hair was messy, completely covering up his handsome appearance.
In this valley, he practiced hard for nearly two years.
On this day, he leaned out of a small river and washed the dirt off his body.
He drew out his long sword, shaved off the beard on his chin, and simply trimmed his hair that was too long, and casually tied it into a Taoist bun.
Then, he put on the shabby clothes that had been washed and dried. Although they were a little shabby, at least he looked like a normal person.
After doing this, he stretched out, looked up at the sky, and couldn't help but smile.
We are almost ready, it’s time for a change in this world!
