Outside the door of the inn is a long street facing north and south.
Hu Xiaotian held the long sword borrowed from the Hengshan Sect in his hand, with the tip of the sword pointing diagonally to the ground as a sign of respect, and said loudly: "Young Master Jiang, Hu Xiaotian, please give me some advice!".
Jiang Mingfeng looked at his skillful and smooth sword-drawing movements and his impeccable momentum, and was secretly surprised. He slowly drew the sword in his hand, put his left hand lightly on his right wrist, and returned the salute: "Brother Hu, please!"
The reason why Hu Xiaotian publicly proposed a sword showdown to Jiang Mingfeng was of course to become famous all over the world. Although he is a disciple of Xuanzong, he has not done anything amazing since he re-entered the world, so he is unknown. With his current reputation and status, how could he be qualified to challenge Ji Haoming for Tang Xue's ownership? Jiang Mingfeng is the leader of the younger generation of the seven major sword sects. He is known as one of the "Top Ten Rookies". His swordsmanship is known to the world. As long as he can be defeated, he will immediately become a man of the hour. It is especially rare that a leader of one faction is willing to act as an arbiter, which makes the standards of this competition very different. I believe that within three days, this matter will spread to Jianghuai.
There was a sword fight on the long street, and the leader of Hengshan, Taoist Master Xuantian, was the witness. In an instant, the whole town was in a sensation. Both the celebrities and ordinary people who were passing by were crowded to both sides of the long street, vying to have a look. But seeing the crowds of people, the shouts were overwhelming, and I don¡¯t know how many people came to watch. People in the world were talking about it, and it was obvious that they had never heard of the name Hu Xiaotian, let alone which sect he was a disciple of.
Hu Xiaotian turned a deaf ear to the comments outside. Knowing that the other party would not take the initiative to attack, he smiled slightly and stabbed forward with his long sword. There is nothing fancy about it. Extremely simple.
Taoist Priest Tianxuan's half-closed eyes suddenly widened, and an undercurrent surged in his heart. Could it be that this son's swordsmanship has reached a state where he has returned to his original nature?
The so -called internal banks look at the goal, and the layman looks lively. The spectators around him were disappointed when they saw that his sword was unremarkable, and they cheered in unison.
Jiang Mingfeng was the first to bear the brunt, and naturally felt the most clearly, but he felt that the sword seemed to be fast and slow. The tip of the sword could not help but tremble slightly as it advanced, and he could not see the direction where the opponent was pointing! His brows furrowed slightly. He secretly said that whether he used his sword to counterattack or dodge, it didn't seem to be the best response strategy. He wanted to see clearly the subsequent changes in Hu Xiaotian's sword moves. His feet moved and he took a step back.
Everyone never expected that Jiang Mingfeng would retreat before even making a move, causing an uproar.
Hu Xiaotian¡¯s wrist is as stable as iron, and he still thrusts straight with his sword, his speed neither increasing nor decreasing. It was too late and then it was too late. The two of them advanced and retreated, but the two swords did not even clash.
Jiang Mingfeng calmly took three steps back in an attempt to disrupt Hu Xiaotian's rhythm of drawing out his sword. Unexpectedly, his opponent followed step by step and became more and more powerful. Not affected by outside noise at all. I couldn't help but feel awe-inspiring in my heart, knowing that I had met a true master of swordsmanship. If I retreated, my momentum would be taken away by my opponent, and I would definitely lose. Suddenly he raised his voice and roared loudly, stamped his feet and flew into the air. His sword flashed with lightning and went straight for the vital point of Hu Xiao's Zenith Gate. Unlike Hengshan's swordsmanship, which is light, graceful, and as fast as the wind, Huashan's swordsmanship is more eccentric, steep and ruthless, using offense instead of defense. Every move kills. This time, he flew into the air and struck down like a dragon. He was decisive and ruthless, capturing the essence of Huashan's swordsmanship. Thousands of people were watching this competition. As a representative of the Huashan Sect, Jiang Mingfeng certainly did not want to lose. After all, it is a matter of honor for the sect, and it must not be taken lightly. Not to mention those who were watching the battle intently. And Gan Yuqi!
Seeing that he was using all his strength and his sword aura was overwhelming, Hu Xiaotian's heart suddenly moved. His long sword changed from stabbing to teasing, and he immediately shook the enemy's sword away. The sword turned around to block it, and he actually went on the defensive. Huashan's swordsmanship is good at attacking. Jiang Mingfeng would not be polite to you if he had the opportunity to show off his skills. He would swing his wrists continuously, and the sword light would be vertical and horizontal, and he would attack with one move after another. The two swords connected with each other, the clanging sound was as dense as raindrops, and the movements were so fast and fast that it was dizzying. Jiang Mingfeng was seen using the force of the counter-shock to soar into the air and draw out his sword, rising and falling suddenly, like a soaring roc. Hu Xiaotian raised his head and swung his sword. The sword light was dense and thick, as if the sword curtains were protecting the surroundings. It was really a wonderful attack and a beautiful defense!
Taoist Priest Tianxuan stared closely at Hu Xiaotian's figure, his expression changing, his gaze fleeting, as if he had seen some rare treasure. He is a master of swordsmanship in the world, so it can be seen that the swordsmanship performed by Hu Xiaotian is unique and has hidden mysteries. There is no way to take advantage of it! You must know that the Hengshan sword technique is natural, elegant and continuous, and emphasizes the use of softness to overcome strength. It is very similar to the Shuirou sword technique created by Hu Xiaotian. It's a good thing Taoist Master Tianxuan didn't see it, but when he saw it, he felt itchy and wished he could replace Jiang Mingfeng and get a glimpse of the secrets of this swordsmanship. If he could learn a few things from it, it would be enough to make Hengshan's swordsmanship even better. But with his status here, what should he do if the sword fight ends up over-promoting the opponent?
Hu Xiaotian didn¡¯t know that Tian Xuandao had other thoughts. He gradually refined his water-soft sword technique with the help of Jiang Mingfeng¡¯s sharp killing moves. His ultimate goal is to challenge Ji Haoming. If he cannot break through the second restriction of the Hades Qi Lock, he can only rely on this set of swordsmanship to counterattack and strive for the one in 10,000 chance of victory. thereforeBefore the decisive battle, he must use every opportunity in actual combat to confirm his inner feelings and improve the minor flaws in his swordsmanship.
Jiang Mingfeng attacked with more than twenty swords in a row. Although he was very happy and stole the show, his true energy was exhausted and the force of the shock penetrated his body, causing a dull pain in his meridians. Seeing that the long-term attack was fruitless, with a thought in his heart, he swung three feet across and landed on the ground. He raised his sword and pointed at Hu Xiaotian, and said loudly: "Brother Hu only defends but does not attack. Are you looking down on my younger brother?"
Hu Xiaotian said: "Huashan's swordsmanship is good at offense but bad at defense. If you are not allowed to let go, won't it mean that you are dissatisfied when you lose?"
Jiang Mingfeng laughed and said, "Brother Hu is trying to anger me? I won't be fooled."
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "In that case, I'm not polite!" His movement flashed, the long sword broke through the air, and the dazzling sword light flickered, which was thrilling and thrilling. He now launched an attack with all his strength, using the 72-way "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique". For a moment, lightning flashed across the sky and wind and thunder roared. The power was three points stronger than that of Jiang Mingfeng just now. The one who presided over the competition was Taoist Priest Tianxuan, a master of swordsmanship. Of course, he couldn't use the Hengshan Sword Technique openly, and he couldn't use the magic skills. He simply picked up the self-taught Wind and Thunder Sword Technique to hide from others. Anyway, this swordsmanship emphasizes the word "quick", which is similar to Hengshan swordsmanship. Don't be afraid of being exposed.
Taoist Priest Tianxuan¡¯s eyes were as bright as a torch. He murmured: "Is it the Wind and Thunder Sword Technique?" This sword technique is the unique skill of the He family in Lingnan. It is fast and sharp, but it is lacking in subtlety and ruthlessness. It is far inferior to the Huashan Sword Technique. , how to beat Jiang Mingfeng? But in the next moment, his expression suddenly changed, and he saw that Hu Xiaotian stabbed eighteen swords with a snap of his fingers. Each sword was so fierce and accurate that it was beyond the reach of a human being!
Hu Xiaotian dared to use this second-rate swordsmanship, so he naturally had something to rely on. Because it was Mo Tianfeng who taught him the essence of Kuai Sword. You must know that Mo Tianfeng is actually a swordsman genius among the "Seven Swordsmen of Hengshan", known as the "fastest sword of the seven sword sects". If he hadn't indulged in alcohol and sex, his achievements would have been limitless. Hu Xiaotian got his true message. When it comes to fast swords alone, he dares to boast that he is the first among his peers.
Jiang Mingfeng originally thought that Hu Xiaotian was good at defense but not at attack. Unexpectedly, his opponent's sword speed was so fast. With his eyesight after practicing swordsmanship for many years, he could hardly see the real landing point of each sword. In terror, he exerted force on his toes and swept back at full speed. He retreated while swinging his sword to counterattack, trying to use his own characteristics of light kung fu to open up enough space with his opponent and wait for an opportunity to regain the initiative. But I saw figures flying around. The sword light comes and goes, and all kinds of unique moves appear one after another. The scene is ten times more exciting than before.
Everyone was so mesmerized that they even forgot to applaud and cheer, and you could hear pindrops on both sides of the street.
Jiang Mingfeng was leaping like flying, having brought the Huashan School's unique Qing Kung to its fullest, but Hu Xiaotian was like a tarsal maggot, chasing after him without missing a step, and the tip of his sword never left the vital points around his body for a moment. The strategy I had planned before turned out to be useless. Jiang Mingfeng was unwilling to admit defeat. In his eagerness to win, he ignored his master's warning and decided to use his most powerful killing move to level the situation. In the midst of a sudden retreat, his arms suddenly fluttered, and he did a somersault in the air, ending up on his head and feet. The long sword slashes and stabs, like a flying dragon probing its claws. Every blow is full of murderous intent, fighting for one's life.
Hu Xiaotian once heard Gao Qingcheng mention that the Huashan Sect has a unique skill called "Wandering Dragon Killing Sword". It is a secret swordsmanship that simulates flying dragons flying in the sky and killing all directions. It will not be used easily until the moment of life and death. Seeing that Jiang Mingfeng was desperate and desperate, he was not angry but happy. With a slight twist of his wrist, the long sword that was halfway through the stab was turned back up and Dangdang blocked the opponent's killer moves continuously, sparks flying everywhere. His sword power changed from wild attack to strict defense without feeling forced at all. Those who are proficient in swordsmanship all secretly applauded. Where Jiang Mingfeng's long sword landed was always just a hair's breadth away from Hu Xiaotian's vital parts, and it seemed that he could seal the victory at any time and make the opponent lose the ability to fight. But the strange thing is that Hu Xiaotian always dodges or blocks at the last moment, resolving the crisis before he can really exert his force.
The two swords were intertwined, life and death were on the line, and everyone was secretly sweating for Hu Xiaotian.
Jiang Mingfeng was clearly just one layer away from winning, but he still couldn't do it. After several attempts, he felt anxious and his moves were a little stiff and hasty, revealing his flaws. The sword light in Hu Xiaotian's hand suddenly exploded, and he switched from defense to attack without any warning. The tip of the sword pointed, forcing Jiang Mingfeng to return his sword to stop him. I saw the two of them moving forward and backward, their sword energy rising straight into the sky. There was a sudden loud noise in the entanglement, and they jumped backwards and separated at the same time, facing each other with their swords.
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "Huashan's swordsmanship is steep and unique, with endless changes. It is as unpredictable as a dragon swimming through the clouds. It really opened my eyes. I admire it!"
Jiang Mingfeng's face turned red and white, and he glared at his calm opponent fiercely, and said bitterly: "Brother Hu is as sharp as the wind with his sword, and has strong internal strength. He is good at catching opportunities, but I am not as good as me! If I have a chance in the future, I will ask Brother Hu for advice. "A strong gust of wind blew by, causing pieces of cloth to fly. Seven sword holes actually appeared on the sleeve of his right arm. It was unknown when he was pierced.
"Jiang ?Feng was defeated! "Jiang Mingfeng was defeated!" "Everyone who saw this scene screamed at the top of their lungs. The shouts spread throughout the long street in an instant, and there were voices of admiration and regret. Jiang Mingfeng ranked seventh among the "Top Ten Rookies" and was one of the most popular newcomers on the white road. A leader of a generation was defeated by an unknown newcomer today, which was beyond everyone's expectation. Some people thought quickly and immediately jumped on their horses and rushed to the big towns to sell the results of this battle at a good price.
Jiang Mingfeng put his sword back into its sheath, bowed his hand to Taoist Priest Tianxuan, and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Tianxuan, my nephew has been defeated."
Taoist Master Tianxuan said: "Victory or defeat is a common thing for military officers, so you don't have to pay too much attention to it." He comforted him with a few gentle words, then turned to Hu Xiaotian and said: "Master Hu won this battle without a doubt. I just don't know if you can. Do you still have the strength to fight again?"
Hu Xiaotian was stunned when he heard this, and said solemnly: "Is it possible that the head of Tianxuan wants to give guidance to the younger generation?"
Taoist Master Tianxuan shook his head and said with a smile: "You misunderstood. If I were to compete regardless of my status, wouldn't I be using the big one to suppress the small ones? I would be criticized by others? My Hengshan sect is also good at swordsmanship. It is rare to make friends with martial arts today. I want to send my disciples to fight with How about you have a spar?"
Hu Xiaotian smiled and said: "The master has given orders, how dare Hu not obey? Please!"
Taoist Priest Tianxuan was secretly happy and said calmly: "Qin Maoyang, come out!"
"yes!"
As he finished speaking, a vigorous figure fell into the field from the sky. He had slender limbs and clear features. Wearing a white attire, he has a calm and gentle demeanor. At first glance, he looks like a scholar who has read poetry and books, without the slightest bit of arrogant martial artist temperament. His eyes were clear and bright. As soon as he touched Hu Xiaotian, he smiled slightly and said: "I am Qin Maoyang of Hengshan Mountain! Seeing that your swordsmanship is unique, I can't help but feel happy. I specially made a request to the master for a sword competition. It is not because I have any personal prejudice against Brother Hu. If Brother Hu needs it, It¡¯s time to regain your strength, Qin just waits patiently.¡±
As soon as Qin Maoyang appeared, the people around him couldn't help but shout: "Qin Maoyang of Hengshan is finished!" "Brother Zhang, come back quickly! There is a second sword fight!" Because Hu Xiaotian defeated Jiang Mingfeng, his popularity soared, and some people immediately Set up a situation. Call for bets and attract gamblers. For a while, the sound was overwhelming and noisy.
Among the "Top Ten Rookies" ranked by the Seven Sword Sects, Qin Maoyang ranks fifth, second only to Gao Qingcheng, Luo Binger, Zhou Junfan and Taishan Sect Xie Junfeng. But there are also rumors in the world that Hengshan disciples have always kept a low profile and are not keen on ranking in vain. With Qin Maoyang's true strength, he can even challenge Luo Bing'er and Zhou Junfan. Regardless of whether the rumors are true or false, it is a fact that his martial arts and swordsmanship are superior to Jiang Mingfeng's. Taoist Priest Tianxuan asked him to fight. On the one hand, he has deep confidence in his disciples and wants to save the face of the Seven Sword Sects. On the other hand, he wants to further understand Hu Xiaotian's unique swordsmanship, secretly digest and absorb it, and improve it.
Hu Xiaotian doesn¡¯t know Taoist Master Tianxuan¡¯s wishful thinking. But he was at a critical moment in refining his swordsmanship. The more he could compete with swordsman masters, the better. Is there any reason to politely refuse to avoid it? He immediately smiled and said: "Young Master Qin is personable and upright. Hu Mou admires me from the bottom of his heart." He flicked the sword with his fingers and said proudly: "It's just a martial arts competition. Young Master Qin just let go and attack!"
Qin Maoyang would not restrain his hands and would blindly accommodate the other party, so he took advantage of the situation and said: "Since Brother Hu is so proud, I won't be polite!" After saying that, he suddenly flashed forward, and he rushed forward with his sword, and there was a roar of dragons. , the sword light stood up in shock, it was virtual and real, covering the vital points on Hu Xiaotian's chest. He was as quiet as a virgin, and as active as a rabbit!
Hengshan swordsmanship is famous for its close extension, exquisite moves, needles hidden in the cotton, and the harmony of yin and yang. Compared with Huashan swordsmanship, it is more righteous and less ruthless. Although Qin Maoyang was the first to attack, he actually still had three points of strength left. His sword was fast but not fierce. Once Hu Xiaotian swung his sword to block it, he would use subsequent changes to attack his flaw. After all, Qin Maoyang had watched the battle from beginning to end and knew that his opponent Kuai Jian Wushuang could not let him gain the upper hand, so he used his secret "Jiutianhui Immortal Sword" as soon as he made a move, trying to firmly seize the upper hand.
Hu Xiaotian¡¯s divine eyes were extraordinary, and with a sharp sound of sword wind, the long sword thrust out, accurately passing through thousands of phantoms, and stabbed the enemy¡¯s sword spine with a clanking sound. The strength of his arms and wrists was so strong that Qin Maoyang's fingers went numb at the first touch, and he could not pass out the changes he had planned in advance. Seeing Hu Xiaotian's sword stabbing him in the face, he made a mistake in his steps and fired the sword with his wrist. It was tilted up from an incredible angle. There was a loud tremor, and the two swords swung open. Qin Maoyang shouted: "Brother Hu, be careful!" He pointed out the two index fingers of his left hand, and a strong wind blew towards his face, actually containing sword energy. Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but praise: "Well done!" He turned sideways and retreated quickly, returning his sword to guard, busy but not chaotic. Qin Maoyang was unyielding when he gained the upper hand. He stabbed and swung his long sword, just like a dancing immortal. His graceful posture contained murderous intent. Each sword was like an antelope hanging its horns, which was so wonderful. In particular, the two fingers of his left hand assist in attacking. The wind of his fingers is as sharp as a sword, surprising and unpredictable. Hu Xiaotian will swordThe technique is used to the extreme. If a finger wind hits in front of him, he will wave his palm to catch it. Anyway, he has deep internal strength and rough skin and rough flesh. Although Qin Maoyang's fingering techniques are sharp and wonderful, they still can't hurt him for the time being.
In order to win this battle, Qin Maoyang even used secret tricks, but he still couldn't do anything to the opponent, and he was secretly awestruck. However, he is determined, calmly looking for opportunities, and never gives up. I saw that one side attacked like a fierce wind and fierce fire, while the other side defended like a rock and a mountain. It was difficult to tell the difference.
Some of the onlookers around him cheered for Hu Xiaotian, some cheered for Qin Maoyang, and some took the opportunity to increase the odds and encourage betting. The cheers, noises, and quarrels were heard in all directions.
Just at this time, a group of people came from the north in a meandering line. The group was guarded by Ming cavalry at the front and rear. Each knight was as tall as a spear. Their armor was covered with dents and scratches. Their movements were strict, their behavior was sturdy, and they were filled with murderous intent. , at first glance, they look like an elite division capable of fighting hundreds of battles. In the middle of the procession, there were dozens of carriages of various types, some loaded with goods, some gorgeous and spacious, with nobles seated on them. What is particularly strange is that there are dozens of Mongolians and Semu people mixed in, all of them are brave and rough, but they have all been stripped of their armor, bows and arrows, and only have a scimitar hanging on their waist. The entire line of troops meandered for several miles, with flags fluttering, but the general's flag was not seen, which seemed a bit mysterious.
