Chapter 215: Northern Chu’s No. 1 Sword God
My name is Jiang Xiaobai, and I am the number one sword god in Northern Chu.
When I was called the sword god for the first time, I was very flustered and ashamed, because I knew that there were countless sword cultivators stronger than me in Northern Chu, and I was actually just an ordinary sword cultivator.
But as people called me that many times, I gradually got used to it; after blocking assassins for the Northern Chu royal family many times, they were impressed by my invincible sword cultivation style, and the Northern Chu emperor named me the number one sword god in Northern Chu.
Gradually, I found that when the disciples of the big sects did not come out, the sword cultivators of the disciples of the small sects and the casual cultivators were not my opponents, and I seemed to be quite worthy of the title of sword god;
Once, a disciple of the Wuyin Sword Sect came to Danyang to challenge, and was defeated by my three swords of the Sword of Emptiness. So I found that the disciples of the big sects were no more than that. I am indeed the number one sword god in Northern Chu.
My name is Jiang Xiaobai, the number one sword god in Northern Chu.
In the winter of this year, the Emperor of Northern Chu came to me and said that the Li family, a military family, had produced an extraordinary sword cultivator with good aptitude and strength, and would become a great man in the future. He hoped that I could help her, convince her, and then guide her, so as to keep her in Northern Chu and serve Northern Chu.
At first, I was reluctant. There are so many sword cultivators with good aptitude in the world. If every one of them needs my guidance, will I still have the face of the Sword God?
But they gave too much, 500 spirit stones for each move!
... In fact, I still like to help the younger generation. As a Sword God, I have the responsibility of a Sword God to make the sword cultivators in the world walk smoothly on the path of swordsmanship.
The first time I saw her was on a rainy and snowy day. The sky was gloomy, the rain was mixed with snow, and the whole world was cold and wet, which was very uncomfortable.
The Emperor of Northern Chu arranged for us to meet in the small attic of the Imperial Garden. In order to live up to my title of Sword God, I burned a stove of fine incense, brewed a pot of fine tea, prepared a pot of fine wine, hung a fine sword in the attic, and then turned my back to the stairs to increase the mystery of the Sword God.
The emperor and the general brought her to the attic to see me. When the emperor and the general saluted and greeted me, although they turned their backs to her, I still felt that she was looking at me, and my back was numbed by her sharp sword energy.
Sword energy? It turned out to be a good seedling.
So when she called me the Sword God, I turned around to look at her...
I... I... Sword God! Is there such a beautiful woman in this world?
No, no, I mean, how can there be a sword genius with both bone talent and beautiful figure in this world? !
I decided to guide her seriously... If possible, it would not be a bad idea to give her a chance to become a disciple.
Becoming a disciple of the Sword God, for a sword cultivator, what an honor it is...
Hey! What's with your snickering?
I noticed that the girl saluted me while smiling with her lips pursed. Although she looked cute when she smiled, my keen perception told me that the smile was teasing and was directed at me.
I don't know what's so funny. To be honest, I was a little angry. If it weren't for her excellent bones, I should have left.
I suppressed my anger and motioned them to sit down after they saluted.
I personally divided tea for them. Seeing that the girl sat opposite and drank tea politely, I asked her: "What's your name?"
"Li Shiyin, seventeen years old next year." Her father, the general of Northern Chu, answered for her.
The general seemed to be called Li Zhan. I met him several times, but I didn't have a deep impression... Not many cultivators would have a deep impression of mortals.
Li Zhan answered. I was unhappy that Li Shiyin didn't answer in person. I glanced at him, hoping that he would be more alert.
I asked the girl named Li Shiyin again: "What is your cultivation?"
Maybe Li Zhan didn't know, maybe he was very alert, anyway, he didn't say anything. Li Shiyin put down her teacup politely, looking shy - she was so cute - she replied: "Middle stage of foundation building."
The voice was so clear, like the sound of a fine sword being drawn out of its scabbard, "chi ying", which made me intoxicated.
Middle stage of foundation building, seventeen years old, I nodded, her aptitude is indeed good, not much worse than mine. When I was seventeen, I was ready to form a pill. But she seemed to have some understanding of sword energy, which is rare.
"Not bad..." I took a sip of tea and commented, "You seem to have realized the sword energy?"
"Yes." Li Shiyin nodded to me.
The way she nodded was also very cute, with a smile, and every nod struck my heart.
I was a little panicked, and hurriedly lowered my eyes to drink tea, and didn't speak for a long time... Maybe they thought I was thinking?
After a while, seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Li Shiyin asked me: "What is the level of cultivation, Lord Sword God?"
She had a smile on her lips, as if joking, but I paid attention to her attractive red lips when she smiled, and I didn't see clearly what she was laughing at.
"Late Jindan." I answered.
I formed the elixir when I was 20 years old, and I reached the late Jindan when I was 207 years old. The progress of cultivation was quite smooth, and the talent for cultivation was high enough. Moreover, I was still quite young. According to the normal life span of mortals, I was in my youth, young and strong.
"Ah! So amazing." Li Shiyin said.
I heard too many compliments in Beichu, but I think those compliments combined are not as good as this one, which makes my heart light. I must have smiled unconsciously, and I asked her again: "What kind of sword are you cultivating? Flying sword or shurikens?"
"Shurikens." She said.
"Shurikens are not good..." I shook my head, "Shurikens are reckless swordsmanship, and flying swords are the right way of swordsmanship."
"Ah, yes, yes..." She nodded and agreed with my point of view.
"You can switch to my school, I will teach you the orthodox flying sword technique." I advised her, "You are only in the middle stage of foundation building, there is still time to change to flying sword."
"No, no, it's too much trouble for you." She is really kind and considerate for me.
Looking at her lovely face, I can't bear to let her go astray. I think if I show her the power of flying sword technique, at the age of sixteen or seventeen, if she finds that the sword in her hand is far inferior to the flying sword, she will definitely become my disciple to learn flying sword technique... Girls should still learn flying sword technique.
Thinking of this, I raised my hand and beckoned, and the flying sword hanging under the eaves of the pavilion was unsheathed, and it followed my will, swimming in the pavilion like a flying bird and a swimming fish.
I looked at her, she nodded and thought deeply while looking at me, and it was obvious that she was attracted by me. I was proud and wanted to show off, so I decided to show her my skills again. I flew the flying sword out of the pavilion, and it flashed in the air, and suddenly turned into a giant sword that was more than a hundred feet long.
This sword was not a false sword energy, but a real sword.
She must have never seen such a method before, and she opened her eyes wide and was shocked by me.
"The so-called flying sword takes the head of a thousand miles away. A hundred miles of battlefield, ten thousand miles of rivers and mountains, the flying sword is out and thousands of people fall. Beheading invisibly, shocking the scoundrels." I was very proud, and took the opportunity to say to her, "How about this empty flying sword technique?"
She sighed and shook her head and said, "It's really amazing, amazing, amazing."
I was very happy and persuaded her again: "I am willing to teach you, do you want to learn?"
She pondered for a moment, and suddenly said: "You are really amazing, you have some strength, why don't we find a place to learn."
I quickly understood that she did have some talent after all, and of course she had the arrogant nature of a sword cultivator.
In order to completely convince her, I decided to agree to her request. I took back the flying sword with the demeanor of a master and said to her: "Just show me your skills. Why do you need to find a place?"
"Here?" She looked inside the pavilion and shook her head, "It's too unfair for you."
She may not know what a huge gap there is between the late Jindan and the middle foundation building. I chuckled and comforted her: "It's okay. Just do it, I'll take it."
"Then let's give it a try. If it doesn't work, we'll find another place." She said, taking out a sword from the Qiankun bag and holding it in her hand.
With the Qiankun bag and the sword, I suddenly realized that something was wrong. She might have some background, but the arrow was already on the string.
"Come on." I still said. No matter how old she was, she was just a small foundation building cultivator.
"Pay attention!" she reminded me.
I heard the sound of the sword being unsheathed, and then my eyes blurred. The lovely girl was gone in front of me. I reacted quickly and had already used the sword to defend, but it was too late.
"You lost." Her voice rang in my ears. I looked over and saw her eyes were frosty, like a sword tip, and there was a sword tip pointing at my neck.
Lost... I lost too quickly, I didn't react in my heart, I didn't know what it felt like, I couldn't speak.
"It's too narrow here, and the distance between us is too close. It's unfair for you to practice flying swordsmanship." She put away her sword, went to the attic window, and said to me, "Go out and fight again?"
I don't know when I was in a passive position. I went to see the Emperor of Northern Chu and Li Zhan. Although they had no expression on their faces, there was a sneer in the depths of their eyes... She said go out and fight, then go out and fight again.
"Okay." I nodded woodenly.
She used her ghostly body skills and suddenly disappeared from the window. I summoned another flying sword, made it bigger, and carried me out.
I saw her standing in the rain and snow in the air in the Imperial Garden. Although, she was really beautiful.
"Be prepared!" She was so nice and reminded me.
I saw her receiving the starlight, and every bit of magic power in her body lit up. She was like a star in the dark, and her whole body was shining. I knew she was performing her most powerful move...
She recited the move aloud, and I heard it clearly, it was, "Sky...outside...flying...immortal..."
The name is really nice, just like her.
I also performed my strongest move, I combined my six empty swords and turned them into a physical sword of a hundred feet in size.
Her sword energy flew over - I saw clearly that she was not just realizing the sword energy, her sword energy realm was extremely terrifying - I controlled the sword.
My flying sword and her sword energy met in the air, and we held on for a long time, and I barely won.
But...
I knew I lost.
If it was a life-and-death battle on the battlefield, she could have used her ghostly body skills, which would make it impossible for me to find her, and then she would get close with the sword.
She was a sword cultivator in the hand, and she was one major realm lower than me. She used sword energy to fight against my flying sword. She was purely trying to compete with the strength of the moves.
Won, but lost.
I stood in the rain and snow for a long time. I didn't know when they left, I just knew that the rain and snow were very cold today.
"Puff!" I suddenly couldn't bear it anymore, spit out a big mouthful of blood, and then couldn't hold on and fell from the air.
Someone shouted "Sword God" "Sword God", came to help me up.
I was sick, very sick...
