Chapter 373 Flying with a sword?
"Master uncle has a sharp gaze."
Li Yuan was a little surprised. The Dragon-Elephant Fusion was a form-changing combination, not a unique martial art in the ordinary sense. How could this be seen?
"The fusion of dragon and elephant is complete?"
Xin Wenhua was shocked.
Although the Dragon-Elephant Merge is not a magical skill, the difficulty of practicing it is much greater than ordinary skills. As far as he knows, in the Great Dragon Gate, Dou Yue and Yin Fa are the only two people who have achieved perfection in it, and that also took decades of hard practice.
This……
He looked Li Yuan up and down, shocked and puzzled: "How did you see that?"
"Any martial arts will leave traces after it is cultivated to a certain level. The Dragon-Elephant Merge is no exception, but the traces are slightly lighter."
Stroking his long beard, Nie Xianshan couldn't help but sigh in his heart. The old guy was really too lucky.
He separated his true power and went to Huizhou, where he not only accepted a disciple of the Eternal Level, but also broke through the barriers, wiped out more than forty years of chronic illness and old injuries, and broke the Tian Gang.
It's a pity that I have been practicing hard for decades, but I don't have a single divine weapon. My realm is crushed, and my disciples are far from being able to compare...
He sighed in his heart, but he quickly calmed down:
"Your Thunder Dragon has great potential. Even if you cultivate it to become a dragon-elephant merger, don't give up. You can have more than just one spiritual form."
"Isn't it right?"
Before Li Yuan could speak, Xin Wenhua couldn't help but speak:
"That's not what you said to me at that time. I had a fierce tiger in my heart at that time. You said that the spiritual form is precious and pure, and cannot be cultivated at the same time. Why did he change like this..."
Xin Wenhua blurted out, but before he finished speaking, he closed his mouth, his face turned red, and he wanted to slap himself.
This is pure self-humiliation...
As expected, Nie Xianshan glared at him and said, "It is important for a person to know himself. You haven't perfected the Tiger Shape Sword in thirteen years, and you still want to cultivate the Spirit Appearance?"
"..."
Xin Wenhua's face flushed.
"...Thank you for the advice, uncle."
Li Yuan had a slight headache. This old Taoist knew how to teach his disciples, so wouldn't this definitely be a way to sow discord between them?
"People don't realize it, and they become annoying for no reason..."
"Cough cough cough~"
Li Yuan coughed several times and changed the subject: "Uncle Master, I have some doubts about the spiritual aspect and I want to ask you for advice."
"Ah."
Nie Xianshan's expression relaxed, and Li Yuan hurriedly moved a chair over, and also brought over a small table with fruits and snacks.
"..."
Xin Wenhua had not yet recovered from the suppression and teaching of this old Taoist priest. Seeing this scene, he felt admiration in his heart.
Natural, so natural.
This smooth and flowing energy has penetrated into my bones.
"The so-called spiritual appearance."
Nie Xianshan picked up a red and yellow fruit and took a bite. He glanced at the dazed Xin Wenhua:
"You tell me."
"what?"
Xin Wenhua was startled and quickly replied:
"Martial arts practice imitates the nature of heaven and earth. All kinds of martial arts are like this. They imitate the beasts to temper their muscles and bones, and use the shape to replenish the body. Therefore, the body grows and possesses the power of beasts..."
In front of Nie Xianshan, the true disciple of Humen seemed very embarrassed, but when talking about martial arts practice, he gradually calmed down.
As the third on the Dragon List, Xin Wenhua naturally has a profound foundation in martial arts.
"Use form to replenish form, and the tendons and bones will become strong. The vigorous Qi and blood will generate strength, and the strength will transform into Qi. Qi cannot last long without form, so it must be transformed into form. Only in this way can the Qi be emitted to a height of three or ten meters..."
"Contemplate in your mind, let the Qi follow your heart and be released outwardly, like a tiger or a dragon. The form transformed by the Qi comes from the martial arts you have learned. The combination of various forms is the interweaving of various martial arts. This is the combination of changing forms..."
Li Yuan nodded in his heart. The disciples of large sects often have a solid foundation and are very clear about the theories of various martial arts. They have a great advantage over the independent people in the martial arts world.
"Perceiving yin and yang, the true qi interacts with heaven and earth, and the shape-changing combination can transform into a spiritual form. It is no longer limited to the scope of ten feet. With the help of the power of heaven and earth, it can travel a hundred feet, or even further..."
Xin Wenhua bowed slightly: "Like your Pure Yang Sword Spirit, with a thought, you can instantly kill people hundreds of miles away, crisscrossing and interweaving, even if there are tens of thousands of people, you can go back and forth like a god."
Tsk, the kid is learning how to skate.
Li Yuan felt strange, and Nie Xianshan nodded:
"What is the difference between the shapeshifting combination and the spirit form?"
Xin Wenhua replied: "If the true qi leaves the body, it will disperse, but the true qi interacts with the heaven and earth, condensing and not dispersing."
Nie Xianshan did not comment and turned to look at Li Yuan:
"What do you think, Brother Li?"
"Brother Xin is right."
Seeing Nie Xianshan's piercing eyes, Li Yuan thought for a moment and said, "My disciple believes that when the true qi transforms into a physical form, it should be similar in form, and when the true qi transforms into a spiritual form, it should be similar in spirit."
Li Yuan pondered over the shape-changing combination and spiritual appearance for a long time, but what impressed him most was the time when he entered the tower many days ago.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he vaguely touched upon the essence of spiritual appearance: physical resemblance comes first, while spiritual resemblance comes second.
Xin Wenhua raised his head suddenly:
“Similar?”
"Did your master teach you?"
Nie Xianshan raised his eyebrows slightly.
Glancing at Xin Wenhua from the corner of his eye, Li Yuan nodded: "...Yes."
"Ah."
Nie Xianshan pinched his beard, slowed down, and said:
"The spirit of spiritual appearance lies in the spirit, just like a magic weapon can only be a magic weapon if it has spirit, and there is no spiritual appearance without spirit. This spirit lies in visualization and also in comprehension."
"Both the form and the spirit?"
"Not bad!"
Nie Xianshan patted the table and said, "Both form and spirit? Not bad, very appropriate. The spirit must have both form and spirit!" "Uncle Master, the form can be changed, but what about the spirit?"
"Gods can also be changed. This is the essence of spiritual appearance. Without gods, one cannot be independent. Without autonomy, how can one travel ten or a hundred miles?"
"I see."
The two of them asked and answered each other and had a very pleasant conversation.
Xin Wenhua took note of it silently on the side, but he couldn't help feeling a little chill in his heart.
Based on his understanding of his master, he was afraid that he would be beaten up today...
"The wonder of spiritual phenomena cannot be described in words..."
When he was getting excited, Nie Xianshan suddenly snapped his fingers, and a long sword appeared with naked eyes, and in an instant, it slashed out a hundred feet away.
laugh!
The sword moves silently.
Li Yuan looked up and saw that the hundred-foot-high sky was split into two. The speed was extremely fast, but there was no sound of a gas explosion after breaking the sound barrier.
Chi chi chi~
In just a moment, hundreds of traces visible to the naked eye were left in the air, crisscrossing each other like a big net, covering Jingtao Hall.
Nie Xianshan did not use any sword techniques, but the sharp edge that flowed out from the interweaving of swords had already made Li Yuan and all the witnesses nearby feel cold in their hearts.
The four master craftsmen were also attracted by this sword, and their disciples were even more shocked and awed.
"This is a ray of true energy..."
Li Yuan felt a little annoyed. Compared with the shape-changing combination, Ling seemed to be the same thing, but also seemed to be separated by the sky and the sea.
His true energy was now abundant, his mind was strong, and the thunder dragon transformed from his true energy could span more than ten feet, but it could not withstand this sword, and even had no way to react.
"Zheng~"
After a moment, the sword light fell back in front of everyone.
The sword is three feet and two inches long, with fine patterns on the blade. When it trembles slightly, it ripples like water. Even when viewed from such a close distance, it still feels like a real sword.
"This sword was made after I cultivated the two great magical skills of Dragon and Tiger Mysterious Scripture and Health Preserving Pure Yang to perfection, and then traveled through mountains and rivers, roamed around the world's dangerous places, picked up rare sights, and understood the will of God..."
Nie Xianshan smiled. This was what he was most proud of.
With this sword, he climbed to the fifth place on the hero list, and considered himself as good as the number one hero, Xie Wangsun's Bi Shui Han Guang sword.
"Amazing skills."
Li Yuan was amazed and felt even more excited.
This sword, both in terms of lethality and appearance, is first-rate, and it has a huge appeal to him.
Wearing a Taoist robe, holding a pure Yang sword...
After Nie Xianshan's permission, Li Yuan touched it and felt that it was just like a real sword. It felt great to the touch. When he flicked it gently, there was a clear sound of sword:
"Uncle Master, if you step on this sword, can you fly with it?"
"Flying with a sword?"
Nie Xianshan laughed in silence. He flicked his finger and the three-foot-long sword suddenly expanded to a length of ten feet, enough for two people to stand on it:
"you try?"
Xin Wenhua was also eagerly looking forward to it: "Master, I want to try it too."
"Well, Senior Brother Xin, just try it first."
Li Yuan didn't argue. He always felt that there was something wrong with Nie Laodao's smile.
"it is good!"
Xin Wenhua jumped onto the long sword. He was very good at lightness skills and his lower body was stable.
Boom!
The next moment, there was a loud roar, and the sword shape disappeared in the sky. In the pool more than ten feet away, Xin Wenhua was in a very miserable state, with his clothes torn.
"The sword energy interacts with the heaven and earth, so it can travel several miles in an instant. But if a person stands on it, not only will it consume a lot of energy, but whether they can stand on it is also a big problem."
Nie Xianshan retracted the sword energy. For thousands of years, many people have tried to fly with a sword, but it was not a good experience.
What does it look like to carry yourself on your back?
"If it's slower, it's still possible, right?"
Li Yuan's mind was distracted: "As for not being able to stand, Uncle Master, it is impossible for you to not be able to stand? The true Qi can protect your body and resist the strong wind and airflow..."
He still thought flying with a sword was feasible.
“It’s okay to go slower, but it doesn’t make much sense.”
Nie Xianshan snapped his fingers, and with a whoosh, an eagle with a wingspan of more than ten feet rose from the distant mountains.
"I have my own mount, why bother? Standing on the sword takes energy, but sitting on the eagle's back, I can even take a nap."
"……this."
Li Yuan smiled bitterly and had nothing to say.
"With your talent, it's not impossible for you to cultivate the Pure Yang Sword in addition to the Dragon-Elephant Merge and Thunder Dragon."
Nie Xianshan stroked his long beard and said, "Then, can you try flying with a sword yourself?"
"This……"
Li Yuan was somewhat tempted: "But, can these several magical skills in the sect be practiced at the same time?"
"It wasn't allowed before, but a major incident happened in the sect a few years ago, and after that, the Taoist master changed the rules and there are no strict restrictions."
Behind Nie Xianshan, sword energy intertwined and the Chunyang Sword appeared and disappeared.
There are no strict restrictions, but there are obviously...
Li Yuan changed his mind, but before he could refuse, Nie Xianshan had already passed over the topic and took out the Dragon-Tiger Pure Yang Sword Diagram.
"Master Nie, you have great swordsmanship."
At this time, Wanchuan, Jiang Xie and other four master craftsmen also came over.
"I made you laugh."
Nie Xianshan was polite and after a few compliments and courtesies, the others began to discuss the specific details of forging the Pure Yang Sword.
