Ask the Mirror Chapter 162: Sharpening the sword
lnmao.org, the fastest update to the latest chapter of Asking Mirror!
The dark wind blows out from among the rocks, grass and trees without any direction. The leaves of the big branches nearby are trembling, and they seem to feel the chill. Yu Ci felt very clearly that the wind was not blowing from any direction from the southeast to the northwest, but surged from the surface of the earth and chilled the soul before affecting the body.
The Pure Yang Talisman Sword in Yu Ci's hand shone brightly, and the surrounding temperature rose sharply, but it still failed to block the sinister wind. However, there was just a thin line between him and his mind was touched, and there seemed to be a "clang" in his brain. The killing aura that had been accumulated and tempered for many years, under the control of the pure sword intention, was instantly withdrawn. The method of destroying evil with sword intent!
The dark jungle seemed to light up. With the killing sword intention, the slightest sword energy spread out, and the tender grass blades and twigs on the trees that had just been pulled out were swept away, and the evil spirit surged from the ground. The energy then dissipated without a trace.
Yu Ci didn't waste any time. At the same time as the sword was forced to strike, he moved his feet and was seven feet away in an instant. His body moved, and there was a continuous clang on the ground where he had just stood, and several sharp claws broke out of the ground. Even in the darkness, the top nails also shone with a miserable blue light. If he had been delayed any longer, both of his fingers would have been broken. The legs were said to have to be torn off.
While shifting, Yu Ci had already taken the Lianxinjiao into his mouth.
He sensed through the fish and dragon that there was an evil thing ambushing here, but he didn't expect that this thing actually attacked the soul. Even though he has now learned the method of using the sword to defeat evil, it would be a waste to use offense instead of defense, so he still uses It is more economical to protect the soul by holding the heart.
After a second thought, he tapped his toes again, and this time he jumped into the tree. As soon as he dodged away, there was another "clang" sound from the other side, and the sharp fingers and claws followed him like a shadow, and his speed was not much worse than Yu Ci. Before he was surprised, a black shadow burst out of the ground.
As soon as the black shadow appeared, it rushed straight up, three minutes faster than underground. Yu Ci did not hide any longer. The flaming sword emerged from the tip of the talisman sword and collided with the black shadow with a chirping sound. The smell of burning wafted up, and Yu Ci flew away diagonally.
The black shadow also slid down the tree trunk to the ground. In the process, the eyes that were originally closed opened, and three lights seemed to light up in the jungle, locking in the figure of Yu Ci flying back a few feet away. As soon as it touched the surface, its figure began to sink. It was the habit of the black shadow to launch attacks from the ground.
But at this moment, its opponent's sudden recoil was reflected in its three eyes that were split in a square shape. The opponent clearly had not finished his attack and had no leverage behind him, but his counterattack was three points faster than his retreat. The speed of its sinking is not unpleasant, but in comparison, it is still too late!
There was a hissing sound in the air, and the flaming sword in Yu Ci's hand suddenly disappeared, and his body also became blurry. He turned around and pounced almost against the ground, and the distance of several feet was instantly erased!
The black shadow roared violently, and the sound shook the forest. It raised its forelimbs that were half sunken into the soil and struck at the enemy who was already close at hand. A line earlier than this, there was a column of blue-gray air ejected from its mouth. However, as soon as he spoke, the sword light swept past and evaporated it.
Then there was a muffled sound, and the black shadow was lifted up by Yu Ci's forward momentum. A large piece of earth and stone was thrown away, and in the dust and smoke, it hit the big tree behind him hard, and was nailed to the tree. above.
Its sharp claws that can break gold and iron seemed to hit the target, but it seemed not to hit the target, but the flaming sword blade actually tore into its chest, and penetrated with the remaining wooden blade behind it. , the powerful sword energy burst out in the body, exploding its organs, and the murderous energy, which was more severe than the sword energy, penetrated the brain one step earlier, crushing the soul and extinguishing its last bit of consciousness.
The black shadow began to twitch instinctively. Its vitality is very tenacious, but this is just the instinct of the person. Now that its soul is extinct and its internal organs are broken, it will never be resurrected.
Yu Ci stood in front of the black shadow's body and let out a sigh of relief. His coat was torn in several long slits, and the sharp claws scraped the surface of his limbs, causing burning pain. The latest wound was from the bottom of his left shoulder to his ribs. It was not deep, but if his body shape was out of shape, In a moment, those claws were about to penetrate into his heart.
But this is his chance of victory.
The power of the pre-blessed divine walking talisman allowed him to walk through the air in a short period of time and forcefully bounce back. While making up for the time difference, it also instantly raised the sword intent of the Mid-level Mirage to the limit. A sword penetrated directly from the middle palace, and in Before death, he found a chance of victory and took the life of the shadow.
Compared with before, Yu Ci's reaction is still extraordinary. He can activate the sword's intention and instantly increase the explosive power of killing to the limit. He could not do it in any way before.
This is what he has achieved in the past two months. It is the big gain he has found from the "little skills" of using his sword to defeat evil, and it is also a breakthrough in his use of sword.
The use of sword intention actually has a clear context. From a basic point of view, we must first understand how the vitality circulates, how the energy channels are dredged, how the sword energy is formed, how to control the effects, etc. In short, it is the actual method of using the sword, which is called sword skill.
If you are familiar with swordsmanship, you must then understand what kind of thoughts and courage you will have when using such swordsmanship to make a sword move across the sky. The spirit in the sword and the flow of vitality are called the sword's power.
Sword skills and sword power are both clear, and they must be connected with the sword wielder's mind, so that the two are more in line with the sword wielder's temperament and will. A heroic person has a heroic sword, and a feminine person has a feminine sword. After adjusting and matching in this way, when a sword is swung out, the mind, momentum, and technique are integrated without any hindrance, then the sword intention can be achieved.
This is a very systematic process that requires long-term gestation before it can gradually take shape. However, Yu Ci is different.
Due to various reasons such as talent, temperament, and chance, he digested the sword intention imprint given by Ye Bin early, and he already possesses a mature and complete sword intention such as "Mid-level Mirage", and there is no hindrance in using it. , this is already very remarkable,
However, one thing that cannot be ignored is that even though Banshan Mirage's meticulous sword skills and sword skills are very consistent with Yu Ci's, there are still differences in temperament and mentality between Yu Ci and Ye Bin. Especially during his more than ten years of wandering, Yu Ci has developed his own sword style in life-and-death fights, which means that his eyes, hands, and heart are both cowardly, and he can seize the slightest opportunity and make the difference between life and death. He may be too ruthless and ferocious, but after all, he is not the calm and strong demeanor of Ye Bin.
Only this difference makes it take a long time for the Mirage Sword Intent to get along with Yu Ci. If this trajectory continues, Yu Ci will probably be influenced by the strong sword intention, gradually change his sword-wielding style, and even change his temperament, move closer to Ye Bin, and obtain the true inheritance of Banshan Island.
But two months ago, Yu Ci learned from Xie Yan the method of using the Lichen Sect's sword to defeat evil. This little trick is not surprising, but it touches on the fundamental issue of using sword intent. Inspired by this, Yu Ci suddenly understood his way of using the sword and knew how he wanted to use the sword! Even though he doesn't quite understand issues such as sword intention and xinxing, this does not prevent him from reshaping his own unique sword-wielding style based on the use of Banshan Mirage sword intention.
This is a very subtle change, so subtle that Yu Ci himself doesn’t have an accurate understanding of it, but he just wanted to do it and really did it! This time, his future becomes unpredictable. It may be good, it may be bad, but no matter what, this is indeed a path that only belongs to him.
Now, Yu Ci has roughly straightened out the context of his sword intention, and has begun to make the transition to adjusting his sword intention, with initial results.
Finishing the powerful black shadow with one sword, Yu Ci did not immediately pull out the Pure Yang Talisman Sword, but used a small talisman to ignite a ball of fire, illuminating a space of several feet in radius.
He saw the entire black shadow nailed to the tree trunk, and then his expression became solemn.
Actually, he didn't see the black shadow's head and face accurately, because half of this guy's face had been beaten to a **** pulp by a huge force, and the entire green and black head was twisted and deformed. Yu Ci could only confirm from his breath that this It is a demon that is closer to a beast.
Not only on the face, but also on the left side of the monster's body, there was a huge wound. The skin and flesh were rolled up, from the back of the shoulder to the root of the hind leg, and the ribs were vaguely exposed.
These two injuries were definitely not caused by Yu Ci. In other words, he killed a demon that had been seriously injured beforehand. Thinking about the situation at that time, the seriously injured demon must have thought of something unexpected and killed him by killing him and devouring him to replenish his nutrients, but he killed him with a single strike of his sword.
Yu Ci recalled the lightning-fast confrontation just now. This guy can move underground at impressive speeds, and he can also spit out evil things like evil spirits to attack people's souls, and this is only the result of severe injuries. I really don't know what it will be like in its heyday.
And what kind of strength would the guy who injured it to this extent have?
Using the firelight, Yu Ci carefully observed the wounds on the demon's body and got a rough impression. Only then did he pull out the Pure Yang Talisman Sword, and the demon's slightly stiff body slid to the ground. After thinking about it, he forced out the flaming sword blade again, inserted the sword into the crack of the demon's damaged half of the skull, stirred it a little, and after a moment, he took out an irregular block.
In the past two months, Yu Ci has learned a lot of knowledge and techniques for dealing with monsters and beasts from Zhao Xiqiao. He knows that some monsters, especially those with "non-hand-to-hand" methods, such as the one in front of him, can spit out evil spirits. Guys occasionally have some relatively precious "crystals" in their bodies, which are called "blood treasures" and are worth a lot of money.
Yu Ci had no interest in the blood treasure itself. He took it out to let experts like Zhu Lao and Zhao Xiqiao judge some information from it.
Putting the blood treasure away, Yu Ci stood up. The wind blew up in the forest at some point, and in the whistling wind, it was as if the demon's violent roar before its death was still echoing in the jungle. Then, Yu Ci really heard the roar.
His eyelids twitched, and at that moment he suddenly felt, why did this roar sound familiar?
The feeling is just fleeting, and it becomes a bit elusive if you want to capture it again. Listening carefully, you can see that the source of the roar is very far away, separated by several hills, has been refracted many times, and is constantly moving. Yu Ci listened for a long time, but was a little confused.
At this time, the role of the fish and dragon came into play. With a thought in Yu Ci's mind, the little guy flew into the air and flew towards that direction. It's just a few hills. At the high speed of Yulong, it can be reached in dozens of breaths.
The ichthyosaur's sensing range was fully opened, flying all the way, and the reflected jungle shadows flowed by like a revolving lantern. Yu Ci has become more accustomed to this in the past two months and can still distinguish a lot of information from it.
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and his thoughts changed, causing the little guy to fly back.
The ichthyosaur sensor spread out, and soon Yu Ci "saw" that in a certain area that the little guy passed by just now, there was someone sitting with eyes closed, regulating his breath, and it seemed that he was healing his wounds.
"Is it her?"
