Xu Chunniang has a flexible body, constantly changing her posture in the air, flying straight from time to time, and swooping down from time to time.
After her spiritual consciousness was condensed by the heavenly fire, although the total amount was reduced by half, its strength was doubled, making it even easier to use.
No matter what difficult moves she made, she always stood firmly on the flying sword.
Gu Yuanan nodded slightly. When she flew with the sword, her speed was not very fast, but her figure was extremely stable.
Generally speaking, after juniors and juniors learn this step, they can almost leave the profession.
But for Xu Chunniang, Gu Yuanan's requirements were even stricter.
He rose up with his sword, stopped at the same height as Xu Chunniang, and fired a wind blade at her.
Xu Chunniang noticed it when Gu Yuanan was just wielding the sword. Faced with the sudden wind blade, she quickly moved her sword to the side to avoid it.
However, just as she dodged this wind blade, three more wind blades were launched towards her, faster than before.
Xu Chunniang did not dare to be careless, she controlled the flying sword with all her strength, her body rushed left and right with the flying sword, and she narrowly avoided three wind blades.
But before she could take a breath, five wind blades came from several directions, locking on all parts of her body, making it impossible to avoid them.
Seeing that she was about to hit the wind blade, Xu Chunniang immediately launched five water binding techniques without thinking, and wrapped them towards the wind blade, successfully repelling the attack.
The moment she cast the water binding technique, the flying sword under her feet was unstable for a moment, and her body shook violently.
Fortunately, the spell was cast quickly and the flying sword returned to stability.
Gu Yuanan smiled slightly. She could still cast spells while wielding the sword with her spiritual consciousness, which showed that she had accomplished two tasks.
Half of the mind is used to control the sword with spiritual consciousness, and half of the mind is used to cast spells.
This short period of multitasking is just the beginning.
Next, Gu Yuanan's offensive moves were faster than the other, and he moved towards Xu Chunniang at various tricky angles, threatening to force her to fall from the flying sword.
However, Xu Chunniang was someone who refused to admit defeat easily. She gritted her teeth and persisted in wielding the sword, and at the same time, she started to use tricks as she saw them.
She almost fell off the flying sword several times, and once, she and the sword fell downwards.
The time she fell, Gu Yuanan was ready to help, but at the last moment, she stabilized her body and flying sword, and climbed up with the sword again.
It wasn't until her consciousness was exhausted and all her spiritual energy was exhausted that she ended the practice.
Gu Yuanan's face showed a look of satisfaction. This Xu Chunniang was the fastest disciple he had ever taught to learn the art of sword control.
After more than an hour of high-intensity training, Xu Chunniang was really tired.
When you are in high altitude, you not only have to wield your sword all the time, but you also have to be wary of all kinds of attacks. Your mind is always in a state of tension.
Looking at Senior Brother Gu's expression, he seemed to be quite satisfied with her performance.
"Senior Brother Gu, have I learned the art of sword control now?"
Gu Yuanan nodded, "Yes, you don't have to come from tomorrow. But... I decided to give you extra training, so you still have to come."
"Is it still the same practice as today?"
When Xu Chunniang heard this, she looked expectant.
Although she was very tired today, she knew in her heart that such intense practice would be of great benefit, as it would allow the monks to use sword control skills in fighting as quickly as possible.
On the surface, sword control is an auxiliary skill, but in fact, it is much more than that.
In a battle between foundation-building monks, if the strength of both sides is almost the same, if one side is more proficient in sword control, he will definitely win.
Its importance to foundation-building monks is similar to the importance of body skills to practicing monks, except that sword control is more important.
And if you learn the art of sword control, even if you can't fight with him, you can still escape faster than others.
Gu Yuanan shook his head, "Yes and no. Flying with a sword is actually a matter of controlling air with a weapon. I think you must have more than just a flying sword, right?"
A look of surprise flashed in Xu Chunniang's eyes. She turned her palm over and a white gun appeared in her palm. It was a white gun.
"Senior Brother Gu is saying that other spiritual weapons can be used instead of flying swords?"
"That's right. The reason why flying swords are mostly used in sword control is because flying swords are smart and encounter less resistance when flying in the air. But other spiritual weapons can also be controlled, but they are not as convenient as flying swords.
It’s harder to master.”
Gu Yuannan paused and continued, "But theoretically speaking, the higher the level of the spiritual weapon, the faster the weapon will fly."
Xu Chunniang nodded, she probably understood what Senior Brother Gu meant.
For example, the white-rod gun in her hand is a top-grade spiritual weapon. If she flies it, it will be faster than before, but it will be more difficult to control.
Seeing that Junior Sister Xu agreed with his words, Gu Yuanan was a little relieved.
Many juniors and juniors, in order to save trouble, often stop studying the art of flying with weapons after they learn how to control a sword. They feel that after mastering the art of sword control, there is no need to learn anything else.
This kind of approach usually doesn't mean much, but once it comes to a life or death situation, a little speed may be able to save lives.
After all, for monks other than sword cultivators, the most powerful spiritual weapon is often not the flying sword.
The speed at which Yujian flies is naturally not its ultimate speed.
"It's not difficult to control Qi with a weapon, it just takes some time. Tomorrow you can start practicing with this pistol."
After Gu Yuanan finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the teaching room.
He wanted to teach more than just junior sister Xu Chunniang. Seeing that the teaching time was almost over, he had to go back and see other people.
Xu Chunniang thought for a moment, and instead of going back to the practice room as usual, she also walked towards the teaching room.
She has almost learned the art of sword control, but she needs to learn not only the art of sword control, but the art of freedom is equally important.
Since the breakthrough to foundation building, she has been busy non-stop, and it was only today that she had time to attend a Kung Fu class.
The one who explained the techniques to the foundation disciples was a monk in the early stage of the Golden Elixir on the main peak.
When Xu Chunniang rushed to the teaching room, there was still a quarter of an hour before the official start of class, but the seats were already packed.
In desperation, she had no choice but to follow the example of others, take out a stool from the free teaching room nearby, and find a corner in the back row of the teaching room to sit down.
"Xu Chunniang?"
Huo Chunyan squeezed into the back row with a stool, and immediately saw an acquaintance. She quickly walked over, sat down next to her, and started chattering.
"I haven't seen you for a few days. I heard from Senior Brother Gu that you can already wield a sword. Are you too strong? I can only condense four or five rays of true energy. When can I let the flying sword hang in the air?"
Xu Chunniang thought for a moment, "When the true energy reaches six strands, it can form a cyclone. Since you can already condense four or five strands, I believe this step will be fast."
Huo Chunyan was a little helpless. She had to attend too many classes every day. In addition to sword control and exercises, she also had to learn weapon refining and formations, which distracted her energy.
That's why the progress of sword control is so slow.
