Chapter 28 Exam Questions for Abandoned Swordsmen (2)
"Congratulations to Fellow Daoist Wu!" When Wu Jie walked out of the magic circle beside a small lake, he saw Xiao Buyi holding his fists in hand in congratulations.
He smiled, returned the salute, and asked curiously: "How did Fellow Daoist Xiao know that I was coming out at this time? Don't you no longer use those particularly sharp and accurate fortune-telling methods?"
"I didn't calculate it, I just had an idea just now and thought you should pass." Xiao Buyi smiled wryly, somewhat self-deprecatingly, "This is a reaction that comes from one's own intelligence, just like wanting to eat when you are hungry and seeing a beautiful woman.
I can’t help but look twice, it’s become an instinct, there’s nothing I can do about it!”
Ever since he discovered the flaws in his skills, he has been trying to make up for and avoid those problems. The final choice is to only use the low-level fortune-telling methods from now on. Those methods are not accurate and fast enough, but they are good for fortune-tellers.
Your own pressure will be much less.
Although it is a temporary solution rather than a permanent solution, it is better to treat the symptoms than not to be able to cure the symptoms at all - Xiao Buyi's current situation is much better than when the hidden danger occurred, which shows that the cultivation over the years has indeed been very effective.
While the two were talking, Yi Ti and Yi Shou had also walked over and congratulated Wu Jie together.
"Senior Brother is really amazing!" Yi Shou praised, "When we were chatting before, Senior Brother Yi estimated that it would take you about ten days to come out. I didn't expect it to take only three days!"
"Yes, senior brother, you are really secretive!"
Wu Jie smiled and asked, "What about you, Junior Brother Yi? How many days have you been out?"
"I'm ashamed to say it. I've always boasted that I'm good at swordsmanship, but it turned out that I only managed to pass the test half a day ago." Yi Ti shook his head, "It's easier said than done to cut steel with iron!" Wu Jie was stunned: "With that,
Iron cuts steel?" "Yes, Senior Brother, are your exam questions different from mine?" Yi Ti said doubtfully, "I have asked many people, some use wood to cut wood, some use iron to cut steel...
It seems that the higher the cultivation level, the higher the difficulty... By the way, it only took half a day for my sister-in-law to come out, but she didn't say what her test questions were..."
"Oh? Where is she?"
"She drew a formation under the tree over there and sat inside. She said she didn't like others to see her - so we didn't bother her."
When Wu Jie heard this, he didn't bother to ask what happened, and walked straight in the direction of Yi Ti's finger. A moment later, he saw Yin Shuang in a simple concealment circle.
"As expected, you couldn't help but use the Tianwen Sword Technique." Yin Shuang saw Wu Jie coming over, her red eyes were full of smiles, "I originally planned to challenge the second one directly if you haven't come out today.
It’s closed.”
Wu Jie touched his nose, laughed awkwardly, and curiously asked about Yin Shuang's subject.
"Use wood to cut stone, use a long hardwood sword to split a stone beam thicker than a human being." Yin Shuang said, "Although if you really want to practice it, it will probably take ten or eight days, but I can't
If you are willing to delay for so long, after you have basically mastered the essentials, you can directly use the Tianwen Sword Technique to pass the level."
Wu Jie was stunned again - he found that his exam question seemed to be the most difficult.
What on earth is going on?
Just when Wu Jie came out of the formation, outside the Holy Emperor's Hall on the top of the mountain, two old men with simple looks and eyes full of vicissitudes of life looked at him in unison.
Among the two people, one has a green and black face, as full of heavy meaning as the rocks on the seaside; the other is green all over, with a primitive simplicity that exudes vitality.
They are living legends, super seniors who have lived from the time of the Holy Emperor to today. The one who calls himself "Blue Stone Man" is a big bluestone on the seaside, and the one who calls himself "Ancient Wood Man" is an ancient tree.
Tree.
They were the famous great demons back then. When the Holy Emperor Li Xin consolidated the various factions in the world, he once swore sworn alliances with powerful men from all walks of life and became known as the King of the Thirty-Six Roads. They were among them.
After Li Xin died, they took the initiative to guard Li Xin's tomb and protect this place where the Qi of the Nine Provinces gathered together.
Regardless of whether they are ancient trees or bluestones, their lifespans are almost infinite. However, in order to avoid the catastrophe, they have been forcing their cultivation to be at the level of the sixth level of Dan Huandan. For this reason, they have suffered countless hardships... They are not afraid of hardship, but
Seeing that the younger generations are gradually becoming unfamiliar with the legend of Li Xin, I can't help but sigh.
After the vicissitudes of life, old friends are still there, but the past has gradually disappeared into the dust...
The formation for selecting disciples is presided over by them. The principle is that the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult the questions will be. Although Wu Jie used the method of replacing the physical body to push his cultivation level to the level of refining, his soul is the real deal.
As a master of Yuan Condensation, this method was naturally not something he could hide from the two seniors, so the test questions he faced were extremely difficult beyond imagination.
"It's a pity that he got through it by cheating." Qingshi Weng sighed, "If he can really train Number One to that level in just three days, I'm afraid his talent will not be inferior to that of Jian Boy."
"No matter what method he uses, passing the test is passing the test." Gu Muweng said with a smile, "When Jian Boy broke through the test, didn't he follow Brother Li Xian's request? I think... he and the little girl from the Demon Sect used it.
The method seems to be closer to what Brother Li Xian wanted back then..."
When he said this, Qingshiweng also showed a thoughtful look.
After a while, the old man who turned his body into bluestone slabs all over the Holy Emperor's Mausoleum and could react to anything here at any time nodded slightly.
"It seems to be true. Brother Li Xian said back then that those who are qualified to enter the depths of his tomb are the descendants who can destroy all things and break all laws - he did not say that he had to use a sword. Compared to the sword boy, that is simply impossible.
Rather than using rational methods, the tricks of these two little guys are closer to his original instructions..."
"But it's just a close approach. Whether they have enough skills remains to be seen."
"Yeah, let's take a look again."
At this time, Wu Jie and Yin Shuang had already arrived with their friends in front of the formation leading to the second level.
In just three days, more than half of the hundreds of swordsman masters who entered the Valley of No Return have passed the level. Most of them hurriedly entered the second level after taking a short rest - facing
With the opportunity to learn the supreme sword, it is difficult for those who love swordsmanship to resist this temptation.
According to Xiao Buyi's statistics, the fastest person to pass the test is not a monk, but a warrior at the realm of Hundred Refiners - in fact, almost all the people who pass the test faster are warriors. Even Yin Shuang, who is the fastest among the monks, will pass later than them.
A lot.
This is a matter of course. The Abandoned Swordsman was originally a peerless expert who entered the Tao through martial arts, and his swordsmanship was originally more suitable for a martial artist. And the most indispensable thing in the Wuhui Valley is a strong martial artist - don't forget, here
It is a holy place for warriors, and there are actually quite a few martial arts experts gathered here.
"The martial arts master who made the fastest progress has even passed the third level?" When he heard the news, Wu Jie couldn't help being shocked, "He passed two levels in a row in just three days?! He
It’s so awesome!”
"In fact, it only took him a quarter of an hour to pass the first level. He must have already mastered that method." Xiao Buyi said with a smile, "This old gentleman entered the Valley of No Return two hundred years ago and practiced hard for so many years. In martial arts,
His cultivation has already reached an extraordinary level. We qi-refiners usually don’t practice martial arts very much, so it’s normal that we can’t compete with him.” After saying this, Wu Jie was relieved. A qi-refiner is as good as someone who has been practicing for a longer period of time than him.
If martial arts saints compete in martial arts, they are asking for trouble!
There was a flash of light, and this time he came to a shallow pond.
The stone by the lake is still engraved with words in the style of the Abandoned Swordsman, with arrogant energy and heroic spirit. The second style, the water-splitting sword. "Manpower is sometimes poor, and maybe you will find that even the most concentrated strength can't
The reason for breaking through some of the monks' magic formations is because these magic formations will disperse the attacks you encounter, dispersing your concentrated power again, making your attacks lose their power."
"To deal with this situation, you must master the second weapon, speed."
"The so-called speed does not mean that you swing the sword extremely fast, but that you increase the speed to the extreme at the moment of attack, so that the enemy has no time to react."
"This sword can penetrate flowing water without touching the body. That's why I named it the Water Splitting Sword."
According to his request, Wu Jie lifted the iron sword, which weighed at least 200 kilograms, pointed it at a golden stone at the bottom of the clear water, and rushed over with sword and man.
He moved so fast that he even brought up howling winds wherever he passed. But when he rushed out with his sword, he found that he had suddenly returned to the same place, in a daze with the sword raised to thrust out. This proved that his
The sword was not fast enough. Wu Jie tried several times and found that even if he cast spells that could increase the speed, the sword power was never fast enough, so he had to sit down and meditate again. He thought for a while, stood up and tried again. This time, he
The sword moved slowly, until it was almost touching the surface of the water, and then it suddenly accelerated.
But the situation remained the same, and he still failed the test.
"It's really not easy to increase your speed to the extreme in an instant..." Wu Jie muttered, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
It seems...he does have a way to do this!
This time, the light of several spells flashed across his body, and a powerful aura emerged spontaneously, but was forcibly suppressed like a volcano that had not yet erupted.
The slightly trembling sword edge slowly approached the water, and then accelerated violently.
A loud noise like thunder exploded beside the pond, but Wu Jie had already appeared on the formation leaving the examination room. This time, he passed the test in just one day. "Huh? How did you pass the test so fast?" Seeing
Xiao Buyi looked surprised when he came out.
Wu Jie smiled and did not speak. Instead, he raised his hand and wrote four words with flames in the air.
