Martial Arts: Opening Awakening

Chapter 287 Sword Demon
Under the dim starlight, in the pitch-black night, on the top of the canyon, which is more than a hundred feet high, less than half a foot away from Jiangnan, there is a dark figure sitting impressively.

With Jiangnan's skill, it took so long for someone to be discovered at such a close distance, which is extremely inconceivable.

There are only two possibilities, either a dead person or a master.

Naturally, it is impossible for a dead person to climb up this hundred-foot-high cliff and still maintain a sitting posture.

Then, it can only be a master.

And still a master.

Jiang Nan pressed the long sword in his hand and focused his attention on guard.

The pitch-black figure suddenly stood up, and through the faint starlight, Jiangnan vaguely saw that this was a burly old man who was a head taller than himself.

"Little guy, who did you learn the "Qinglian Nineteen Styles" from? It seems to be the same. Are you willing to worship me as a teacher?"

The burly old man stared at Jiangnan with burning eyes, and when he spoke, his tone was equally fiery.

The "Nineteen Styles of Qinglian" mentioned by the old people is exactly the swordsmanship of Immortal Sword Valley.

It is based on the legacy of Qinglian Sword Immortal Li Taibai, after several generations of talented swordsmen in the Sword Immortal Valley.

Although there are only nineteen styles, they condense the essence of all the sword skills left by Qinglian Sword Immortal that have been handed down in the world.

For example, the Hundred Flowers Sword School is said to be derived from Qinglian Sword Immortal's town school "Famous Flower and Beauty Sword". .

The original intention of the ancestors of Sword Immortal Valley to organize "Qinglian Nineteen Styles" is not only to inherit and carry forward the peerless swordsmanship of Qinglian Sword Immortal, but also to reverse the legendary "Qinglian Sword Code".

pity!

Such a stunning genius like Li Taibai is rare in a thousand years.

Even if the talented swordsmen of Sword Immortal Valley exhausted their energy, they could only come up with nineteen incoherent swordsmanship, which is still ten years away from recreating the "Qinglian Sword Code" and even understanding the secret of Qinglian Sword Immortal's broken void. Thousands of miles.

However, as far as this is concerned, "Qinglian Nineteen Styles" can be regarded as the first-class swordsmanship in the world, even far superior to the Zhenpai swordsmanship of the top ten sword schools, and it is comparable to the two martial arts holy places of Chunyang Palace and Dachan Temple. The top swordsmanship is on par.

Before, the two swords in the south of the Yangtze River combined the swordsmanship of "Qinglian Nineteen Styles". The master of the sword Immortal Valley just thought it was familiar, but he didn't react immediately at that time.

This burly old man was completely different, and he had obviously recognized him directly.

Jiang Nan's heart shuddered.

Knowing that the fight with Gu Zhu before, the mysterious old man has probably seen everything in his eyes.

Just trying to find an excuse to explain the source of the sword technique.

Suddenly a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and he said: "Could it be that senior is the ancestor of the Sword Immortal in the Sword Immortal Valley?"

"Haha. You little guy reacts quite quickly. It's just a little bit naughty."

The burly old man laughed loudly, and the night birds perched on the top of the shaking cliff "swished" and flew away.

However, Jiang Nan noticed from the old man's words that not only the fight with the owner of the valley just now, but also his own actions in the Sword Immortal Valley these days were mostly seen by the old man.

That's why the other party used the word "naughty".

Jiang Nan couldn't help but be thankful that he didn't do any other extreme actions except "prank" to provoke karma and slipped a sword in the Tibetan soldier's pavilion.

"What ancestor of the sword fairy? That's just a compliment from the group of incompetent disciples in the valley." The burly old man waved his hands disapprovingly, and sighed with a complicated expression: "Old is old, what kind of sword fairy is far behind!"

"Decades ago, someone called me Sword Demon." The old man suddenly added.

"Sword Demon?"

Jiang Nan's heart shuddered.

I vaguely remembered that I had heard such a name when I learned about this world.

It is said that he was a peerless and ruthless person who once stirred up the situation in the world.In order to hone his swordsmanship, he killed dozens of well-known swordsmen in a row.Among them, there are even masters from the top ten sword sects and other top forces.

It was also because the sword demon acted almost like a madman, and was later besieged by masters from various factions, seriously injured and fell off a cliff.

So far, no more news.

People in the Jianghu only thought that the sword demon was dead.

Unexpectedly, he lived in seclusion in the Sword Immortal Valley and became some kind of ancestor of the Sword Immortal.

Jiang Nan believed that if this news spread to the rivers and lakes, and to those sects whose important disciples were killed by the sword demon, it would definitely be a big trouble for Sword Immortal Valley or this burly old man .

"The reason why the other party told me their true identity without any scruples is because they didn't leave any way out for me!"

Jiang Nan smiled wryly in his heart.

Knowing such a secret, and learning the Guzheng sword technique of Immortal Sword Valley, there are only two choices.

Or, as the old man said, choose to worship him as a teacher.

Or, choose to die.

After all, everyone knows that only the dead can keep secrets best.

"Decades ago, I wasn't born yet. So, I'd better call senior 'senior'." Jiang Nan thought, pretending that he had never heard of the name "Sword Demon", and said flickeringly: "I'm afraid senior won't believe it. The reason why I know these swordsmanship is entirely because of a dream."

"Dream?" The burly old man was slightly taken aback.

"That's right, that was a dream." Jiang Nan said decisively: "That day, I just drank a few more glasses of spirits on Dongting Lake. In my daze, I saw a windless automatic boat floating head-on. Come."

"A white-clothed figure whose face could not be seen clearly stretched, sat up from the cabin, looked at the bright stars in the sky, drank the remaining spirits in his hand, and chanted:
The west wind blows the old Dongting waves,

In one night, Xiangjun had more gray hair.

When I get drunk, I don't know the sky is in the water,
The boat is full of clear dreams and crushes the galaxy. "

The burly old man didn't take it seriously at first, but he couldn't help being moved when he heard the poem recited by Jiangnan.

Subconsciously murmured in his mouth: "When I am drunk, I don't know the sky is in the water, and the boat is full of clear dreams to press the galaxy. What a poem! I am afraid that only Li Taibai, who is excellent in poetry, sword and wine, can make such an amazing masterpiece!"

Zhang Guan and Li Dai in the south of the Yangtze River forcibly copied the song "Inscribed on Qingcao Lake in Longyang County" by Tang Gong from his previous life, just for this amazing effect.

You know, Li Taibai, the Qinglian sword fairy in this world, and Li Taibai, the poet fairy in the previous life, have many works that overlap.

Jiang Nan didn't know exactly how many of these overlapping works there were.

Hastily reciting a work by Li Taibai, a former poet fairy, if Qinglian Sword Immortal in this life has already done it, it will definitely not achieve such a shocking effect.

Only such unfamiliar classic works can make Jiangnan's story more real.

Jiang Nan ignored the burly old man's gawkish expression and continued to act as a stripper:
"The figure in white, after reciting this poem, suddenly jumped up and lightly stepped on the surface of the mirror-like lake."

"Then, I did not know where to draw out a long sword, while reciting familiar or unfamiliar verses, I danced the long sword."

"Its shape is as graceful as a frightened bird, graceful as a swimming dragon. Rongyao Qiuju, Huamao Chunsong..." Jiangnan made up a few words, and suddenly realized that the content behind it was describing a woman's figure, so he stopped hastily.

Continue to fool:

"Until now, I still vaguely remember some of the verses that the figure in white chanted."

"for example--"

"When you draw a knife to cut off the water, the water will flow even more, and if you raise a glass, your sorrow will be relieved."

"There will be times when the wind and waves break, and the sails will be hung straight to help the sea."

"Famous and beautiful flowers are in love with each other, and the king often looks at it with a smile."

"It's always because floating clouds can cover the sun, and Changan's disappearance makes people worry."

"Dapeng rises with the same wind in one day and soars up to [-] miles."

"Ten steps to kill a person, a thousand miles without leaving."

"A dangerous building is a hundred feet high, and you can pick stars with your hands."

"The wind blows for tens of thousands of miles, blowing across the Yumen Pass."

"Raise a glass and invite Mingyue to form three people against each other."

"I would like to put the sword down from the waist and cut Loulan straight."

"One husband guards the gate, and ten thousand husbands cannot open it."

"..."

The burly old man was shocked.

Because most of these verses correspond to the sword moves in "Qinglian Nineteen Styles".

For example, drawing a knife to cut off the water, breaking the wind and breaking the waves, overwhelming the country with famous flowers, covering the sun with floating clouds, soaring upwards, killing every ten steps, picking the stars with one hand, growing winds thousands of miles, inviting the moon to meet the shadow, cutting Loulan with the sword, guarding the gate with one man...etc. .

There are also some, even the burly old man has never heard of them, but their artistic conception is obviously not much better than the existing nineteen styles.

Either bold and unrestrained, or elegant, or fresh and romantic... are the characteristics of Qinglian Sword Immortal's works.

"If it can evolve into a sword technique..."

At this moment, no words can describe the excitement in the burly old man's heart.

Grabbing Jiangnan's arms subconsciously, he asked tremblingly, "Do you still remember the other sword moves performed by the sword fairy?"

"There are too many moves, I can't remember clearly." Jiang Nan shook his head and took the opportunity to explain:

"The reason why I sneaked into the Valley of Sword Immortals is precisely because after waking up from the dream, I felt that the swordsmanship danced by the figure in white clothes in the dream was somewhat similar to the swordsmanship of Sword Immortals Valley..."

"So, I want to confirm it up close."

"In the past few days, I have quietly watched some disciples practicing swords in Immortal Sword Valley, and found that the sword skills they practice are indeed similar to the sword skills performed by the white-clothed fairy in my dream."

"It can even be said that they are in the same line."

"After watching the swordsmanship they practiced, the similar swordsmanship I saw in my dream immediately became clear."

Sensing the excited expression of the burly old man holding his arms, Jiangnan suddenly changed his voice:
"It's a pity! The swordsmanship of Sword Immortal Valley, which is the "Qinglian Nineteen Styles" mentioned by you senior, only accounts for a small part of the swordsmanship I saw in my dream."

"Except for the nineteen moves I have seen in reality, the other sword techniques seem to lack an introduction, and are still vague."

"I'm obviously impressed, but I can't use it no matter what!"

Feeling the loss of the burly old man, Jiangnan changed the subject again:
"On the contrary, I still remember most of the poems corresponding to those sword moves. If senior needs it, I can copy it for senior to read."

"really?"

The burly old man was overjoyed, subconsciously shook Jiang Nan's arm, and exclaimed in surprise: "It's so good! It's so good!"

The inadvertently leaked strength almost shook Jiangnan away.

Jiang Nan was horrified.

You know, with Jiangnan's current physical strength, even if the innate master does not use weapons to strike with all his strength, it may not be able to bring Jiangnan this feeling.

To what extent is the strength of this burly old man who claims to be a sword demon?
Concentrating on the pinnacle of the Grand Master?
Or the legendary first-rank celestial being?
