One person, one sword, I have guarded the lonely city for 70 years

Chapter 267 Climbing to the top
Swish - Song Yun opened his eyes, escaped from the illusion, and returned to the gate of the tenth floor of the sword tower.

He touched his heart, as if there was still a trace of pain left.

"This seems to be the first time I have been killed? Although it is in an illusion, it feels very realistic."

Song Yun took a deep breath, collected himself, and began to replay this battle.

"I still underestimated the similarity between 'Song Xuan' and myself. Not only are the skills the same, but the fighting style is also exactly the same."

The style of killing and cutting swordsmanship is to be quick, accurate and ruthless, at all costs, to take people's lives within seven steps.

You die and I die, the risk is extremely high, you can't kill others, the one who gets killed is yourself.

If the two sides in the battle are both killing swordsmanship, and their combat strength is almost the same, then the possibility of both dying is very high.

"You have to be flexible and try to restrain this kind of killing sword."

Song Yun went back to the ninth floor to read the classics of swordsmanship and studied different styles of swordsmanship.

It is not easy to restrain yourself.The way of killing and cutting swords is simple and pure. It only seeks to kill the enemy as quickly as possible. There are no fancy moves, so it is difficult to find flaws.

The next day, they challenged "Song Xuan" again, but they all died together.

On the third day, Song Yun completely gave up the way of killing and cutting swords, and used a defensive technique of "Round Sword Jue" to fight against the enemy.

It took three days and three nights to confront "Song Xuan", but in the end because of his lack of proficiency in the exercises, he still showed his flaws and was beheaded with a single sword.

Time flows extremely fast in the illusion, and only half an hour has passed in reality, so there is plenty of time to try.

On the fourth day, Song Yun adopted the method of flying swords and fighting, harassing from a distance, leaving wounds on "Song Xuan" one after another.

However, "Song Xuan" had a higher attainment of body skills, and finally found an opportunity, piercing through the air with a sword, stabbing Song Yun's eyebrow...

After several consecutive failures, Song Yun gradually understood that killing swordsmanship is currently the most suitable for him.

Forcibly changing the path can only weaken one's combat power, and can't even die with the phantom.

If you want to win, you can only increase the power of killing swords.

On the fifth day, Song Yun stood in front of "Song Xuan" again, with his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to go.

"Please!"

The bronze long sword was unsheathed, and the edge of the sword went straight to "Song Xuan"'s eyebrows, like a thin line piercing the void, simple and clear.

"Song Xuan" didn't defend, but used attack against attack, and the black steel sword with gold pattern also stabbed out, pointing at Song Yun's eyebrows.

Sword to sword, the two sides used the "Heavenly Ghost Walking World" movement technique at the same time, bringing out afterimages of Taoism, and rushed together in an instant.

Puff - the black steel sword with gold pattern pierced Song Yun's eyebrows first.

However, Song Yun was not judged dead, and was still attacking. With a twist of his sword, he swung his sword downwards.

"Song Xuan" drew his sword back quickly, but he was half a minute too late, a deep gash was cut on his right wrist, and his hand was almost severed.

Song Yun stopped in place, and a series of afterimages behind him slowly disappeared.

Then touched the center of the eyebrows, and it was unscathed!

This is his meticulously prepared "enhanced version" of killing swordsmanship.

Use Taoism to assist swordsmanship, thereby enhancing combat power.

What "Song Xuan" stabbed was actually an illusion.

The phantom rushed to the front with a sword, but Song Yun himself was disguised as an afterimage, clinging to the back of the phantom.

The phantom is only two inches ahead of the real person.

In this way, most of the real body and the fake body overlap, and it is difficult for the enemy to find abnormalities in the fast confrontation.

But a two-inch distance error is enough to change the situation of the battle.

"Song Xuan"'s sword remained unchanged, and when he thought he had already stabbed the center of the eyebrow, Song Yun suddenly changed his move again and slashed "Song Xuan"'s outstretched right arm.

One move makes a difference!
At this time, "Song Xuan" retreated to the distance with no expression on his face, and only quietly changed the black steel sword with gold pattern to his left hand.

As an inanimate phantom, the injury only interfered with the movement of his right hand, nothing else.

Song Yun's spirits were naturally lifted, and his momentum was much higher.

After reading books in the collection tower for a year, I already have many ideas in my mind about how to use Taoism to improve combat power. This is the first attempt, and the effect is excellent!

The bronze long sword came out again and continued to attack.

Every time the sword is drawn, there is an illusion, sometimes forward three inches, sometimes forward one inch, the position makes people wonder.

It is also the way of killing and cutting swords, with the addition of the blessing of Taoism, the effect has been significantly improved.

However, "Song Xuan" confronted the enemy purely with the way of swordsmanship, and immediately fell into a disadvantage.

Huh——"Song Xuan" threw out the gold-patterned black steel sword, heaved his chest and abdomen, pushed the long sword into the air with vigorous vigor, and defended against the enemy with his flying sword.

This is a change of tactics out of desperation. He will lose sooner or later if he simply competes in close combat.

However, changing tactics can't escape death.

Song Yun saw the flying sword coming from the sky, chuckled lightly, and threw out his scabbard.

"The sword is rare, but it can be put into my sheath."

Phew——the scabbard trembled slightly, producing a strong attraction, making the gold-patterned black steel sword flying in the air nearly lose control.

At the same time, Song Yun has already handed out his sword.

In an instant, time seemed to stand still, and space seemed to shorten.

The dazzling sword light flickered like a shooting star, flying in front of "Song Xuan".

Sword four, stabbing the sun and the moon!

Puff, a tiny red spot appeared on the throat of "Song Xuan".

The red dot slowly enlarged again, and a little bright red spread out.

A white robe shook slightly, and then fell to the ground with a bang.

The tenth floor test, pass!

Opening his eyes and returning to reality, Song Yun slowly walked towards the tenth floor.

He opened a door that had been dusty for a long time, waved his hand to brush off the cobwebs on the edge of the door, and walked into this deserted and dilapidated holy place of swordsmanship.

With a light blow, large swaths of dust were raised.

Seeing this scene, one can understand that the martial arts of the Great Xia Dynasty are average, but the development of swordsmanship is particularly poor.

This is probably due to Jia Xuan.

Jia Xuan, who was 2 years ago, had peerless talent and climbed to the top of the sword tower early. It stands to reason that he would enter the Tao with the sword and become a sword fairy.

Who would have thought that the classics on the top floor of the sword tower were missing, which forced Jia Xuan to modify his halberd technique, and it took him another 20 years to be promoted to the realm of immortality.

In this way, everyone knows that practicing swords cannot become a human immortal, and even fewer people come to the sword tower.

As for the tenth floor of the sword tower, no one has cared about it for 2 years.

Song Yun was the only one after Jia Xuan to climb to the top.

Looking around, compared with the ninth floor, there are very few collections on the top floor.

A photo stone the size of a black egg, a book, an album, that's all.

The book is called "Flying Sword Mahayana", which is devoted to discussing the way of flying swords. Song Yun turned a few pages and found that the level is indeed very high.

Among them, "Flying Sword Reaching the Stars Jue" is a mid-level sword skill of the sky rank, which brought the dexterity of the flying sword to the extreme.

That picture is called "Thunder Sword Picture", and it depicts a black-clothed swordsman inducing thunder and tempering his sword intent.

The sword light is piercing, the thunder light is churning, the sword is bathed in the sea of ​​thunder, and the brilliance is self-generated, the scene is extremely spectacular.

According to the diagram, after mastering this technique, the sword energy will generate thunder, and its power will increase dramatically.
