Chapter 337 Kendo Exchange
Zhi Shen Gu and the Wuyuan Sword Sect wanted to kill Qin Ran and continued their plan to use elixirs to weaken the Dao Sword Sect.
...It's not that they can't defeat Dao Jianmen, it's just that the cost of attacking them directly would be too high.
However, since they have not fallen out with the Dao Sword Sect after all, they cannot directly kill the leader of the Dao Sword Sect and cannot be too arrogant. They don't care about face, but they don't want to fall out with Dao Jianmen yet.
Therefore, when Qin Ran took the initiative to request exchanges in swordsmanship, the two monks of the Infinite Sword Sect were already numb with joy. When I feel sleepy, someone brings me a pillow.
...In kendo communication, it’s normal for someone to die, right? !
Therefore, it was impossible for them not to agree and just let Qin Ran leave.
Qin Ran naturally knew this truth, so the pull he had with the boy in black was superficial, and he was not worried at all that they would not agree to his request.
"After all, I am a scoundrel in the foundation building stage, so my combat power will definitely not be in the eyes of these two seniors..." Qin Ran brought Li Shiyin back and stood up, and said, "How about we have a gentlemanly exchange!"
With everyone in sight and the duck cooked, the young woman in red was not in a hurry. After all, when the two swordsmen began to compete, the situation would not be decided by Kieran.
She smiled and asked: "Gentlemen communicate? How to communicate?"
Qin Ran turned his head to look at Li Shiyin and said, "Shiyin, show me your first level of sword energy."
Li Shiyin and Qin Ran looked at each other and instantly understood what their master meant.
She nodded obediently, took out the Qingxing Sword, took a step forward, and used her magic power to summon a weakened version of the "Flying Fairy from Heaven" using the Starlight Receiving Technique.
A streak of star sword energy was like a shooting star, streaking across the gray sky and heading straight towards the young woman in red.
"It's interesting." The young woman in red commented as she looked at the sword energy falling from the sky.
She turned over her hand, and a sword appeared in her hand. She waved the sword again, and a sword energy composed of petals condensed on the snow.
The petal sword energy greeted the "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Sky".
The two sword energies collided in mid-air, and in an instant, the petal sword energy was directly knocked apart...
"What a solid and sharp sword energy!" The young woman in red couldn't help but praise.
Li Shiyin smiled indifferently, as if it was not worth mentioning.
Zhao Yaqing was on the side, watching the changes in the sword energy in the sky, and listening to the praise of the young woman in red, her eyes were burning and her teeth were about to burst.
The petal sword energy in the air was knocked away, but it did not disappear. It seemed to be really composed of flower petals. After the petals dispersed, they were still petals, and they wrapped around the "Flying Immortal from Heaven", causing the sword energy to collide.
The two sword energies entangled in the air, and after a while, they both disappeared.
"Senior's control over the sword energy is truly remarkable..." Li Shiyin saw this and also praised him.
Then, she held her sword and clasped her fists, and said to the young woman in red, "My junior's name is Li Shiyin. It's only polite that I ask my senior for advice on the art of swordsmanship."
The young woman in red was stunned. Does this mean that she caught a sword energy and gained Li Shiyin's approval?
It's so interesting that I can't bear to kill her.
"Zhang Yan." She replied.
After they finished their greetings, Qin Ran said to Li Shiyin: "The second change of sword energy."
Li Shiyin circulated her magic power, and the Star Sword in her hand lit up with star light, and tiny star sword energy flew out from it, all heading towards Zhang Yan, the young woman in red.
"The second change?" Zhang Yan laughed when she saw the star sword energy as thin and agile as a swimming fish, "It turns out that the second change among the four changes of your sword energy is from the dexterity and direction of change. Go.
"What a coincidence. My sword energy just happens to be focused on this."
As she spoke, bright rose petals emerged around her body. Each petal was a sword energy. Each petal flew up with the wind and snow, towards the sword energy as small as the stars in the sky. And go.
The petals and stars met in the snow, and the sharp sword energy of the stars instantly cut the petals!
The petals separated, fell, and dissipated in the snowflakes. The sword energy of the stars passed through the petals and snowflakes and continued towards Zhang Yan.
"Such a small sword energy has such power?!" Zhang Yan couldn't help but change her face slightly.
She discovered that Li Shiyin's Star Sword Qi seemed to be different from her Petal Sword Qi. Although her Petal Sword Qi was more flexible, its power attributes were reduced; while Li Shiyin's Star Sword Qi was different. It was a shrinkage of the normal Sword Qi. That's all, the power hasn't changed at all!
"How is it possible?" She was puzzled, "Is this the so-called second level of sword energy?"
Zhang Yan did not panic at all when the star sword energy came to her. In an instant, some rose branches grew out of her body. These branches were also sword energy, different from the sword energy of petals. Branches and vines came out of her body, curled up, and All the flying star sword energy was tied up and stopped beside her.
The branches and vines fought against the stars. After a while, the sword energy of the stars must have been separated from the body, and it was quickly worn away.
"What a powerful sword spirit!" Although she still smiled and praised, her smile was obviously forced.
In the first round, she was evenly matched with Li Shiyin, but in the second round, she was essentially at a disadvantage.
"Senior Brother Lu Junxing said that there are four levels of changes in sword energy. I think the senior's level of sword energy has reached the fourth level, the world of sword energy, that Senior Brother Lu said." Li Shiyin said modestly, "Such a change is really powerful."
You know, even Lu Junxing can't completely turn his sword energy into mountains and rivers...
Of course, this girl was led astray by Kieran. She could actually tell that the changes in Zhang Yan's sword energy were only superficial changes, which were achieved at the expense of the power of the sword energy.
The four levels of changes proposed by Lu Junxing are real changes in the Tao. Each level will change, but the power of the sword energy will not be reduced, and one level will even be stronger than the other.
"Actually, the roads are different..." Zhang Yan opened her mouth and said just that.
After they finished communicating, Qin Ran said to Li Shiyin: "The third level of sword energy changes."
"Huh?" Li Shiyin heard this and looked back at Kieran with doubts in her eyes. Then she stepped back to Kieran's side, "Master, I haven't comprehended the third level of change yet."
"Huh?" Qin Ran was also confused, "You haven't comprehended the third level of change?"
"No..." Li Shiyin stretched out her little hand and clasped her fingers to explain to Qin Ran, "The four realms mentioned by Senior Brother Lu are the first realization of sword energy, the lifting of a heavy weight as if it were light, the world of sword energy. I thought that the first realization of sword energy is not Communication is needed, so the first change is a light-weight change.”
Qin Ran looked at Li Shiyin and asked in a low voice: "So you started out as if you were taking things lightly?"
"That's right!" Li Shiyin nodded, "Master, are you confused? The Flying Immortal is the second transformation!"
"Ahem!" Qin Ran was not embarrassed at all. He nodded and said, "Then show me your sword intent to senior!"
"Okay." Li Shiyin agreed, turned around, and walked forward again.
She was running her magic power, holding her breath and concentrating, and pointed the Qingxing Sword in her hand between her and Zhang Yan, and another star sword energy flew out. The size of this sword energy was similar to that of an ordinary sword, and it penetrated directly. In the snow, it is dark purple and dreamlike, but it does not dissipate.
Zhang Yan looked at the sword energy in the snow, then looked up at the sword energy in front of Wuyi City. The sword energy in front of her eyes was a smaller version of the sword energy in front of Wuyi City.
She snapped her fingers, and a petal floated out, and the petals floated in the snow towards the star sword energy. It floats closer slowly, dancing alone in the snow, very beautiful. Then, the moment it touched the sword energy, it disappeared completely.
The petals disappeared, but the sword energy was unimpeded.
"Is this the meaning of the sword?" she asked aloud.
"This is the sword intention of this junior." Li Shiyin sheathed her sword and said to Zhang Yan.
Zhang Yan approached the Xingchen Sword Qi and reached out again. She did not touch it and just closed her eyes to feel the sword's intention.
This sword intention is not aggressive at all. The sword energy has become sword intention, but the sharpness of the sword energy has been reduced. The sharp star sword energy actually showed a restrained and rounded feeling.
Moreover, for some reason, she felt that the sword intent here was somewhat different from the sword intent in front of Wuyi City.
She asked: "What kind of sword intention do you have?"
After a while, no one answered her. She opened her eyes and saw Li Shiyin looking at her and smiling.
Oh, Zhang Yan understood, Li Shiyin was on guard against her.
...She thought this was a silly Baitian who had never left the ivory tower.
