Chapter 23 The Battle until I Turned into Fly Ashes

The scene in front of her made Xiao Yu suspicious. She always felt that Jixing would not bring these irrelevant people to the cold area for no reason. After all, the cold area is also dangerous.If you just want more people to hunt, you probably won't be able to. Jixing alone is worth thousands of troops, so why bother to bring them along.

So Xiao Yu remembered the characters "three" and "eight" that Lin Keqing had compared to her before. She had many guesses about these two characters.Her eyes looked back and forth between Hu Taoer and Big Hui, and occasionally looked at Jixing, trying to find some clues, but ended in failure.

Seeing her like this, Lin Keqing just covered her mouth and smiled lightly, then floated towards Da Hui, and sat down on Da Hui's back.And Dahui squatted down very docilely, lying on the snow.

After eating and resting for a short time, Xiao Yu felt less tired and more energetic.

Just after the tense nerves were relieved for a while, the whole person was picked up by Jixing, and the two got into the blue boundary on the Baiweng River.

The two had just entered the boundary, when a blue light suddenly appeared on the boundary wall, and the color suddenly deepened a bit.Due to the concentration of spiritual power, the boundary wall gradually revealed its essence, gradually showing the tendency of reflecting light.

When outside the broken boundary, Xiao Yu saw all the wind, frost, ice and snow passing through it, as if the broken boundary didn't exist at all.Now in the broken world, I found that the space here is extremely wide, and there is no outside noise and cold, only a quiet space.

It's like a martial arts arena with a size of one hundred feet.

But she could still see Da Hui taking a nap in the snow, and Hu Tao'er and Lin Keqing sleeping soundly buried in his soft fur.

"Sword fighting, one is to compete with swordsmanship, and the other is to compare reaction speed. But if you encounter endless fights, no matter who is tall or who is low, you must control it within a hundred feet, otherwise as time goes by, your fatigue will gradually appear. , it becomes a contest between spiritual power and physical strength, and women are especially at a disadvantage in this regard."

As Ji Xing said, the Blue Moon Sword appeared, but instead of holding it in his right hand, he held it in his left hand.But even so, the sword energy around him poured out like a tsunami, making Xiao Yu instinctively take several steps back.

Seeing Xiao Yu's lack of cowardice, Ji Xing frowned suddenly.

"Draw the sword!"

Lan Yuejian coldly pointed at Xiao Yu in front of him, ordering him to "respond to the enemy" immediately.

The blue broken boundary is like a cage, trapping Xiao Yu here alone with one sword.She stretched her right hand towards Duanjie, and pulled out the white sword at once, holding the sword by her side, but her arm was trembling unceasingly.

He was clearly his master, and he knew that the other party could not kill him, but his whole body still seemed to be immersed in ice, with an indescribable fear.Even in the next moment, she was about to lose her grip on the sword, and her legs became weak and she fell to her knees.

She raised her head to look at the master who was much taller than herself. The other party was standing ten feet away at the moment, his chin was slightly raised, even though he restrained himself a lot, there was some murderous look in his eyes.

What is more terrifying than the murderous aura is that Xiao Yu seemed to be brought into a strange realm by the strange aura around him. Both senses and mobility were imprisoned, and he couldn't even make a sound.

It was a kind of despair and despair of wanting to run away desperately, but could only stand there waiting for death, and even... Gradually, she had a desire for death, and she wanted to die impatiently.

As Ji Xing restrained his breath, the sense of despair in Xiao Yu's consciousness gradually faded away. At this time, she was covered in cold sweat, and the water dripped down her chin and dripped onto her chest.

In just over ten breaths, she seemed to have experienced a physical and mental death, and in the blink of an eye she gained the hope of life.

"This is the sword state. In the sword state of the strong, he is the master. He will make you feel the fear that you have never had before, or let you form hallucinations under oppression and be in great terror. Or force you to despair, and the other party takes the opportunity to take your life, and all of this comes from the fear of the unknown deep in your heart..."

"I don't know the real environment around me, I don't know the opponent's purpose, I don't know the opponent's flaws, I don't know if there is an ambush, I don't know if I can win, I don't know if I will die... All these will turn into illusions, even if the opponent doesn't need to touch, you will kill yourself with a sword... "

Xiao Yu kept breathing, and she was even a little dizzy due to hyperventilation. Her chest heaved violently due to fear, and her pupils became full of benevolence. She held her white sword tightly in her right hand, and sometimes wanted to put it down. idea.

"But even if you don't have these unknowns, even if you already know me very well, there is something called an absolute power gap in this world! There is currently an absolute power gap between you and me! difference……"

"So my teacher and Ben didn't do anything to you just now, and didn't even deliberately use spells to make you fall into hallucinations. They just exposed this power gap to you and made you feel desperate for this insurmountable gap. Unconsciously fell into my sword realm..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yu had mixed feelings in her heart, because even if Ji Xing didn't say anything, she had just deeply realized the pure power gap.This gap is like in the boundless blue ocean, the extreme star is already at the far end, and she has just owned a small leaf boat.

Even if she tries her best to get rid of the despair caused by these gaps, the cultivation of swordsmanship will be a journey of thousands of miles, with heavy responsibilities and a long way to go.

"If one day there are a group of very important people behind you, but in front of you there is a powerful enemy with an absolute power gap who wants to kill you and the people behind you, what will you do?"

Ji Xing looked deeply at Xiao Yu with deep eyes, and asked solemnly with a deep tone.

Xiao Yu held the white sword tightly in his hand, so hard that the veins on the back of his hand bulged and his joints turned white.

Ji Xing's question was repeated in her mind, and she fell into deep thought for a long time, because she had never thought about who to fight for, and there is no such person in her world now. , maybe the master in front of me is one.

Because that was Xiao Liu's mentor, and now he has become his own mentor.

If there is someone else in the future, then it must be her close relative, her true love, someone she can't let go of.If you fight for these people...

"I will hold the belief that I must die, even if I die together, and I will be turned into ashes in the battle, I will never let him take a step forward!"

Xiao Yu's voice sounded in the empty boundary, loud and firm.This firmness turned into a long echo, spread over the glaciers of the Baiweng River, encountered the towering Zhiwei Peak, and drifted to the entire Az Mountains and the snow in the cold area.

As soon as the words fell, the long sword in her hand seemed to feel the firmness in her heart, and some faint sword intent was fed back to her. In that short moment, Xiao Yu seemed to have found some inspiration about the sword realm!
If the state of mind can be turned into sword intent to give back to the sword master, can it be smoothly transformed into sword state when the sword intent is overwhelming? !
"If I am doomed to be lonely in this life, then I will fight for myself!"

Afterwards, Xiao Yu murmured softly in a slightly lower voice, but Ji Xing could still hear it clearly.

"Very good. With such awareness, it has surpassed everything!"

Polar Star nodded in praise.

"I'm going to teach you the swordsmanship today, it's called Yijianzhuxin. Take care!"

After finishing speaking, Ji Xing's sword energy rose from his body, and he pointed towards Xiao Yu's side, where a phantom immediately appeared. Come out like a person.

In his body, there is a red spot, that red spot is beating like a real heart at this moment, Xiao Yu can clearly hear the thumping sound.What's even more weird is that as the red heart kept beating, more hearts appeared on the shadow's body, there were hundreds of them densely all over the body.

The shadow started to flee randomly in the broken world as if alive, his body was light and his movement was extremely fast, without making any sound, like a dark phantom.

But at the next moment, Ji Xing's feet moved, and his figure moved quickly. Compared with the shadow, it was so fast that Xiao Yu couldn't see it clearly, and could only see its white afterimage.

Two points, one black and one white, are constantly entangled in the boundary, and Ji Xing seems to be able to determine the direction of the shadow's escape, and can always block it, but never makes a sword, as if demonstrating his figure to Xiao Yu .

The Blue Moon Sword in his hand exudes a faint blue light, which is not dazzling under the noon sun, and even looks a lot gloomy and coquettish.At this time, the Lanyue Sword began to point towards the shadow from time to time, but there was no stabbing effect at all.

One escaped and the other intercepted, and Ji Xing seemed to slow down on purpose. Every time he chased near the shadow, he would deliberately slow down his figure, so that Xiao Yu could see clearly every time he drew his sword.After going back and forth like this for about a hundred times, Ji Xing stopped.

He returned to his original place, and the shadow went around and hid in a far corner, but he was still the same, and he didn't look changed at all, which made the shadow feel a little confused and touched his head.

Although he doesn't have facial features, Xiao Yu can perceive that his emotions at this time should be full of doubts.

But just when Xiao Yu and the shadow were puzzled, Ji Xing's sword pointed at the shadow in the distance, and suddenly blue light radiated from the Blue Moon sword, and the sword blew continuously, and the sword energy swept towards the surroundings with a destructive force. go.

When passing by Xiao Yu, she didn't feel any discomfort, as if Jian Qi possessed spiritual wisdom and deliberately avoided her.But when the sword energy touched the shadow, a scene that Xiao Yu will never forget in his life happened!

On that shadow, hundreds of light blue broken boundaries appeared in an instant, and each of those broken boundaries could reach ten feet in length, width and height. A light blue irregular boundary group is formed.

In the broken boundary, some spiritual energy can be vaguely seen flowing.

The Broken Boundary Group is like an irregular piece of blue ice crystal, with a width of more than twenty feet at its widest point!And the shadow was nailed into it at this time, like a little black bug constantly struggling.

Xiao Yu's heart tightened, and she quickly moved away when she sensed the danger.

At this moment, something even more jaw-dropping happened. Those broken boundaries shrank rapidly in the blink of an eye, and even the spiritual power swimming in the broken boundaries was quickly restrained. At this moment, Xiao Yu also saw clearly the Every one in the world is wrapped with a red heart!
However, she only saw this scene for a short moment, because in the next second, with the violent contraction of the broken boundary, those red hearts seemed to be under great pressure, and they all exploded one by one, and the shadow's body also changed accordingly. It was scattered and scattered, and finally dissipated.

Fortunately, what is in front of me is just a shadow. If this is a living person, if a hundred hearts are so oppressed and exploded in the body, wouldn't it become a bloody human flesh sieve!
Even if there was no blood, Xiao Yu felt something splattered on her face, it was a kind of despair that came from the shadow on her face.

At this point, the light of Jixing's Blue Moon Sword quickly subsided, and his arm returned to his side.He exhaled lightly, as if he was taking a bit of effort in order to slow down this move.

"This is a swordsmanship created by combining your natal Yuanfa. The master deliberately slowed down the speed by a hundred times. Can you see it clearly?"

Ji Xing looked at Xiao Yu who was dumbfounded dozens of feet away, and asked softly.

It was only then that Xiao Yu recovered from the shock. It wasn't that the scene was so terrifying, but that she had never imagined that when interface spells and swordsmanship were combined, killing could be done at will.

And so gorgeous!
So she nodded sharply, but then shook her head again.

"I have seen every move clearly, but there are still many things that are not clear..."

Xiao Yu blinked and said shyly.After all, the other party has already emphasized that the speed has slowed down a hundred times, and I still have a lot of unclear, so I don't want to be shy.

"There is still something unclear...then ask."

For Xiao Yu's answer, Ji Xing did not show disappointment or impatience, on the contrary, he already knew it in his heart.

"First question, what kind of monster has a hundred hearts?"

As soon as the words fell, Ji Xing narrowed his eyes, frowned, and breathed stagnantly.

This was not the same question as he had imagined. He thought that maybe Xiaoliu had a childish heart, and he had seen and heard little, so he asked such a question.

"There are probably no human races, at most there are deformed people born with double hearts, but most of them will not live to be young. But the southern demon realm is full of wonders, with thousands of feet, thousands of eyes, and thousands of hearts. Some people have never seen it even as a teacher. But the reason why there are so many red dots is just to let you see more and understand the sword moves more clearly..."

After Xiao Yu heard this, her complexion changed immediately, and she started to imagine infinitely in her mind. She was imagining that if she really put Qianzu Qianmu and Qianxin on the same monster, wouldn't she be scared to death before she even drew her sword?But she still nodded, indicating that she understood.

"Thank you, master! The second question, once this trick is successful, will the opponent be dead without a doubt?"

Xiao Yu asked again.

Clever as a pole star, he quickly guessed the purpose of this question, thought for a moment, and couldn't help shaking his head honestly.

"Not necessarily. The world is full of wonders. If there are really powerful people who can have a glimmer of life through secret techniques and a few magic weapons, or some warlocks have some secret techniques that can be used to borrow others to have a second life, then what do you say? Is the person dead or not dead?"

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Yu felt a little guilty, but he didn't show too much.

"Furthermore, this sword technique can kill people's minds, as well as life essence. It can injure the body as well as the spirit sea and soul consciousness. If you find that the opponent must die, you can cut off his limbs and abolish his cultivation. .”

Xiao Yu felt that her thoughts were seen through by her master, she lowered her head with a little guilty conscience, and then asked another question.

"The last question, master, how can I judge the position of the other party's heart or soul?"

After waiting for a long time, Jixing finally heard a key question, so he felt relieved.

"The heart is the driving force of the physical body, the soul is the source of spiritual power, and the soul is the connection point with the physical body and the spiritual sea. , other than that, you can only exercise your senses, the sharper you are, the more accurate your judgment will be..."

While talking, Ji Xing glanced at Xiao Yu's left chest, then looked at her eyebrows in the blink of an eye, and instantly located Xiao Yu's dead door within two eyes, although he knew that the other party knew where his life was, But it still made Xiao Yu's dorsal fin chill.

"In half a month, you need to be able to locate a hundred red dots at the same time, otherwise you won't be able to learn new moves for the rest of the month, you can only continue to hone this move, and you can't learn this move, a centipede can kill you with one bite. Swallow it, you won’t be able to reach the gate of the oasis at all..."

Saying that, Ji Xing showed a smirk in his eyes, as if he was deliberately scaring her, and Xiao Yu cast him a resentful look after hearing this.

With a chuckle from Jixing's mouth, he summoned dozens of shadows, some with only one heart, and some with ten, and then he exited the broken world.

Looking at the shadows flying in the boundary, Xiao Yu's thoughts spun quickly, recalling Ji Xing's move just now, and she also found that Ji Xing's swordsmanship was more like tailor-made for her .

This sword method is the product of the combination of sword moves and Zhijieyuan method, and the sword moves in it vary from person to person.

The purpose of the sword is to accurately release the spiritual power through the sword energy. While hitting the opponent's body through the air, the senses can quickly locate the heart. At the same time, it can also allow the spirit to quietly invade the opponent's body, allowing him to search for the heart inside. , and quietly devoured and reproduced in the body.

This is an internal and external move.At the same time, this kind of painless move is like a flowery fist and embroidered legs, which can be used as a cover-up to make the opponent take it lightly.

Opening a boundary outside the heart is to drive those spirits into the boundary, even engulfing the surrounding spiritual power, and then shrinking rapidly, causing the spirits to lose order and swarm around the heart. Immediately, the heart couldn't bear it and exploded.

This shrinking process should be particularly fast, without giving the other party time to react.

Just like Xiao Yu's failed spirit-swallowing method at the beginning, she accidentally shot the monk in the head because a large number of spiritual particles were concentrated in his head and there was nowhere to release it.

Xiao Yu felt admiration for Ji Xing spontaneously in his heart. He never thought that an unintentional mistake of his would give Ji Xing inspiration, and combined with the weaving world element method to create a special sword technique!

Tailored for her.

Moreover, only Jixing and her can use this original swordsmanship that combines the weaving element method and the spirit swallowing method. Another brilliance of .

Thinking back to Ji Xing who made him practice the boundary breaking spell all morning, Xiao Yu's gratitude was beyond words.So, holding the white sword tightly in her hand, she chased after one of the shadows...

Time flies so fast when practicing, Xiao Yu also summed up some of his own experience in the process of fighting against the shadow hundreds of times.

From the very beginning it was very difficult to catch up with the shadow, then she could follow the shadow behind the shadow and perform sword moves, and then she could keep pace with the shadow, even faster enough to come in front of the shadow and wait for the shadow to collide. to his own sword.

And her speed of breaking boundaries has also improved a lot. From the beginning, she often misses, and later she can aim to open a one-foot-wide boundary, and now she can instantly open a ten-foot boundary in the shadow body!
Since she opened up the boundary as a sphere, it is much easier to aim at the center compared to the cube of Pole Star.

But there are still difficulties, for example, the sun is about to set, but there is still a shadow running around in the light blue boundary of Jixing, it is a shadow with ten hearts on its body.

Xiao Yu kept chasing that shadow like a white ghost in it. He had obviously located ten hearts at the same time, the boundary had been opened, and the heart had been blown up, but the shadow always gathered and reborn in another place.

After going back and forth like this, after repeating it more than a dozen times, Xiao Yu still did not find the problem. She looked outside the boundary, trying to seek help from Ji Xing, but the other party just looked at him with deep eyes and did not give her any help. A little hint, and even close eyes at the end.

The moment Ji Xing turned around and left, Xiao Yu suddenly realized something, so she immediately closed her eyes, trying to capture the breath of the shadow with her senses.

She quietly felt the beating red hearts on the shadow, and began to count silently: one, two... It was not until she counted to ten that she realized the clue.Behind this shadow's left chest, there is an invisible heart hidden in the air!
Xiao Yu was suddenly annoyed, but he also admired Ji Xing's wisdom. He had agreed to have ten hearts, but he made an inconspicuous transparent heart!
How cunning!
So, when the last sliver of the setting sun disappeared into the sky, in the blue transparent boundary on the Baiweng River, eleven translucent red ball boundaries layered on top of each other turned into a boundary prison to nail the shadow in place.Afterwards, the boundary shrank rapidly, the eleven hearts of the shadow exploded in the blink of an eye, and the shadow also dissipated with the wind.
