The sword is the devil

Chapter 408
Hou Tiao finally survived this hurdle.

Some luck, some reluctance; for him, there is no pressure on the monks in the three realms of Tongtian, but if he is against Jindan, it will be more or less ominous.

This Wumen monk whose name he still does not know was defeated in two places, one was careless, and the other was a coincidence.

He also consumes a lot of energy, switching from sword to assault attack continuously, maximizing mana overdraft from the beginning to the end; there is no way, for Jin Dan whose realm is much higher than him, he dare not set aside even The slightest gap.

In just a hundred breaths, he either turned into a sword spirit and attacked with a flying sword, or closed his sword and fought close to Zifu. There was no chance to breathe; even if it wasn't for the opponent's wrong choice of enchantment, it was hard to say how far he could do it. ?

It is more likely that he failed because he was unable to launch a fatal blow, and either escaped by luck, or was killed by Jin Dan who reacted.

It's not a question of swordsmanship, but a question of great disparity in realm. His current realm level shouldn't be on par with the Jindan cultivator. Maybe it will be better when he reaches the third level of the sky?
Still very gratified, even if he was lucky, he actually killed a Jindan in a frontal battle, which was enough for him to brag about for a long time.

This is enough to prove that the way of walking swordsmanship is correct. From the perspective of combat effect, it is far superior to the mainstream flying swordsmanship. Why this is so, he does not know.

That's why he had to go back to Jincheng!He has already mastered some of the former words. What he can't master is due to the spiritual limitations of his cultivation base. In the future, he will gradually unseal them with the improvement of his realm and strength. The problem is that the more he practices the former words, the more he feels that they are incomplete.

There must be other sword tactics, regardless of whether they are front, rear, left, or right, will there be any in Jincheng Hidden Sword Tower?What about the other legs of the table?
He is full of expectations for the old man Baquan.

Quickly crossing the Lianyun Mountains, although it is certain that the Wu Sect will not be able to send two golden cores to deal with him, they still fly cautiously.

A true cultivator will do whatever it takes to achieve his goals. If he can act boldly, there will also be unscrupulous people in the Wu family!

He is not alone in this world.

A few days later, I arrived at Dafengyuan safely, pressed the escape button in front of Jincheng, behaved well, and my mentality was completely different from when I first learned to fly.

One is that he has lost the desire to show off, and the other is that the current Jincheng is not what it used to be. The three giants of the past have all rotated. Times have changed, and things are different.

...Through the present and the past, things have changed and people have changed. In the world, only Jiangshan is not old.

He came here with a purpose. In theory, he hadn't been called by the teaching staff, so he wouldn't be able to ostentatiously show off. Although it seems that it is not too much to go home once every ten years, this kind of thing is all controlled by the scale.

He didn't know where the old man Baquan's home was, so he could only go to the Cangjian Tower first.

However, the gatekeeper was not the old man he used to be familiar with.

"Baquan old man? He left three years ago, maybe it's the retribution of cheating too many people..."

Now the gatekeeper is a middle-aged monk, who is very disdainful of that old guy inside and out.

Hou Tiao didn't explain anything, each relationship depends on fate, and people are by no means perfect, so there is no right or wrong.

"Gone? Do you know where his home is?"

The gatekeeper is only a small cultivator named Bigu, but he dare not hide anything from the guru in the teaching.

"Daimao Hutong in Xicheng, the one with a crooked neck tree at the door."

Hou Tiao turned around and left, feeling a little disappointed in her heart; but this is the fate of a monk who does not enter the Tongxuan, unable to escape life, old age, sickness and death, in fact, even if he reaches the three realms of Tongtian, so what?What should come will come, sooner or later.

This is the first acquaintance he has met since he practiced Taoism because of his lifespan. It is conceivable that there will be more and more people like this in the future. As long as he can keep going like this, there will only be one person in the end. : All old knowledge is gone.

Tortoise hat alley is a common area in Jincheng, which is fairly quiet and tidy. For most ordinary Quanzhen monks who have retired, this is their destination; and then in the passage of time, wait for the next family monk to appear, or, Back to the real ordinary.

The Crooked Neck Tree was very conspicuous. Hou Tiao knocked on the courtyard door, and a young man came out to greet him. He was obviously confused by the stranger in front of him.
"Sir, are you?"

"A friend of the old man Baquan, who came back from a long way, only heard the sad news, and came here to offer condolences."

The young man immediately understood that the man in front of him who looked about his age was also a Quanzhen cultivator; to be honest, his grandfather was not very popular in Jincheng's cultivator circle, and few people came to the funeral, let alone afterward. It was beyond his expectation that this monk could come to express his condolences.

"Master, please follow me."

The yard is not big, but it is cleaned up and arranged in an orderly manner. From time to time, you can hear the crisp sound of a few children reading, and the consciousness sweeps away subconsciously. There are people in the main room and wing room, but no one comes out to probe their brains; only from the surface From all this, it can be seen that this is a small family with a lot of upbringing, and it is a bit out of tune with the old man Baquan who is used to cheating and abducting.

Everyone has two sides, how can we generalize?

The ancestral hall is small, but the layout is reasonable and not narrow; the furniture is old, but spotless; the offerings are ordinary, but very fresh. From these details, we can see that the potential of this small family is still there.

The old man Baquan's surname is Hou, Hou Sanli. If he hadn't come here, he wouldn't even know the old man's name, which was very embarrassing.

The condolences were completed quickly, and the young people next to them seemed a little casual, loose and irregular, and they didn't even think about bringing a box of pastries.

But he is a well-educated person, and he doesn't complain about anything. When a person comes, he is the greatest respect.

Hou Tiao turned her head, "I want to see who is in charge of the family now."

The young man said respectfully, "Grandmother is still here, and grandma must nod for major and minor matters at home."

"lead the way."

The small living room may also serve as a dining hall. When Hou Tiao saw this grandmother of the Hou family, she was very energetic and her eyes were bright. People couldn't help feeling that a practitioner had never lived his mortal wife.

Hou Tiao was straightforward, "I have some friendship with Hou Lao, and I have accepted his love; it's just that I have not been in Jincheng in recent years, so I lost contact. If you have any requests at home, you can tell them, probably in Jincheng. It can still be done.”

The old grandmother's expression changed, and she could hear something just from this sentence. She dared to say that she was capable in Jincheng, and she was not an ordinary monk; I'm afraid that his status cannot be lowered.

But the old man is wise, knowing that it is the most stupid to ask for some money now, and the life of a monk is long, so it is better to leave this kind of favor to a promising child of the Hou family, which is the most sensible choose.

"Thank you, master, for your care. The family has few assets, so there is nothing to worry about for the time being."
