Jianling Nine Heavens

Chapter 4 Spirit Beast
Time flies, and it is another three months in a flash.

Qin Feng once again showed amazing talent in the way of swordsmanship, even Qin Xiaocang was extremely surprised.

According to Qin Xiaocang's previous prediction, with Qin Feng's powerful body as a spiritual master, the early stage of practicing swordsmanship will be relatively simple, and the initial basic physical training will also be omitted.In this way, he believed that if Qin Feng practiced diligently and had some talent, he could become a swordsman in half a year, and reach the peak of a swordsman in a year.

But after only one month of practice, he has already learned all the basic strikes, and he is very proficient in the eight strikes that he focused on training on the first day, and he knows it by heart.After that, learning swordsmanship is even more handy. You can imitate seven or eight points just by watching it once, and you can fully master it after practicing for a while.

Those simple sword skills were not difficult for Qin Feng. Later, Qin Xiaocang taught him slightly more complicated and advanced sword skills, but he could learn them every time in just a few days, which made Qin Xiaocang amazed and shocked.

This kind of talent can be called against the sky, like a monster, at least Qin Xiaocang has never heard of anyone who can practice swordsmanship so easily.

And because of this, he often lamented his wisdom, persuaded Qin Feng to abandon his spirit and follow the sword, and once said that Qin Feng was a natural swordsman, in short, he praised him and loved him very much.

So a month ago, he bestowed on Qin Feng a precious sword named Crying Soul.

This sword is black in color, six feet seven inches long and one and a half inches wide, with ancient runes appearing on the hilt.And on the blade of the sword, a terrifying beast with a single horn on its forehead and a roaring mouth was depicted.

According to Qin Xiaocang, this sword contains a sword spirit, which can be called a top-notch treasure.It's just that the sword spirit has been in a deep sleep state, and has not been awakened for hundreds of thousands of years, so the power of the Weeping Soul Sword has been greatly reduced, and now it can only be regarded as a powerful magic weapon.

In the Tianling Continent, there are many rare treasures, and for these treasures, there is a general classification.

In the world, apart from the utensils used by ordinary people, the most common ones used by cultivators are called magic tools, which are generally used by those who are lower than the peak of spiritual masters.

The latter ones are magic treasures, possessing a certain magical effect, and are generally owned by Ling Kui and Jian Kui. Of course, some spiritual masters may also get one by chance.

Above the magic weapon is the Kui Bao, which is several times stronger than the magic weapon. Generally, the one who can own the Kui Bao is at least the Spirit King and Sword King, and only a very small number of Kui level cultivators with supernatural status or extremely lucky will get it.

The next one is Lingbao, which is terrifyingly powerful, but it is also extremely difficult to manufacture, and the number is scarce.

Magical artifacts are divided into three grades: high, middle and low, while magic treasures and spirit treasures are divided into grades one to nine. Among them, the first three grades are called primary grades, the middle three grades are counted as intermediate grades, and the last three grades are called top grades.

Qin Xiaocang got this Weeping Soul Sword by chance, but because he couldn't wake up the sleeping sword spirit in the sword, he could only exert the power of the magic weapon, and the effect on it was greatly reduced. Now that Qin Feng is very talented, he will Perhaps it was given to him in the hope that Qin Feng would bring about a miracle and awaken the sword spirit.

Qin Feng likes this Crying Soul Sword very much, and regards it as a treasure. Although the size is a bit inappropriate, it is almost worn close to the body, and it is rarely separated.

Besides Qin Feng's heaven-defying talent, he himself is quite confused. Every time he comes into contact with sword skills, he will enter a mysterious state, as if he has a certain understanding of these sword skills in his soul, as if It can be picked up at your fingertips, and you can learn it without any effort.

He couldn't explain this mysterious and wonderful feeling, but it came from his soul. Maybe it was just like what Qin Xiaocang said, he was a natural swordsman.

Now, he is infinitely close to the peak of swordsman, and he can become a swordsman in one step.

On this day, Qin Feng practiced his sword on the open space in front of Qin Xiaocang's house. Qin Xiaocang once taught him that the most important thing for sword repair is the foundation. Although his talent is very good, the foundation must be laid well. Falling cannot be reduced.

Regarding Qin Xiaocang's words, Qin Feng kept it in his heart and did not dare to disobey, not to mention that he himself would not let go, he wanted to become a super strong swordsman.

Moreover, after experiencing the great change from a spiritual genius to a waste, his disposition has long since changed, he is no longer frivolous and arrogant, and now he is even more calm after practicing swordsmanship.

"call"

Qin Feng took a long breath, put away his sword, and wiped the sweat from his forehead. This morning's training was considered over.

"Brother Qin Feng, you are so amazing. Daddy kept praising you all the time last night." Beside him, a very cute little girl with shofar braids got up from the low stool she was sitting on and said.

She is Qin Yan'er, who often sits and watches Qin Feng practice sword.

Qin Feng's expression remained unchanged, while walking outside, he said to Qin Yan'er: "Yan'er, let's go to eat."

"Enen, I've been hungry for a long time." Qin Yan'er jumped up and down to follow Qin Feng, like a lively little white rabbit.

Qin Yan'er is the youngest in the direct line of the Qin family, and also the one who retains the most innocence. She has a sweet smile on her face, like the spring breeze in March, making people look at her as if her heart is bathed in warm sunshine.

Looking at this scene, a rare smile appeared on the corner of Qin Feng's mouth. This Qin Yan'er was one of the few people he cared about, and the only one who could bring him a little joy.

In another part of Qin's house, in Qin Xiaolong's room, Qin Xiaolong just went through a retreat for more than a month, and he just left today.

The two haven't seen each other for many days, talking about missing each other.

"Lian'er, how is Xiaoye's practice recently?" Qin Xiaolong asked Mu Lian after a long time.

Dressed in Tsing Yi, the glamorous Mu Lian showed a gratified smile on her face, and replied: "Xiao Ye has a good talent, and it is estimated that in one and a half years, he will reach the level of an intermediate spiritual master."

"En." Qin Xiaolong nodded, satisfied. After a moment of silence, he asked again, "So, what about him?"

"Are you referring to Feng'er? Feng'er practiced swords with her third uncle, and I heard that she is about to reach the peak of swordsmanship." Mu Lian said, with a complex look in her eyes, with a hint of relief and a hint of sadness.

"Really, three months, peak swordsman..." Qin Xiaolong didn't ask any more questions, and fell into silence.

Time passed gradually in the ordinary days, and in the blink of an eye, Qin Feng had been practicing swords for a year.

Today's Qin Feng is more than 13 years old, his body has grown very fast, his height is 1.6 meters, his physique is also getting stronger, and his heart is becoming more stable. Now he is obsessed with swords and is extremely indifferent to other things.

Half a year ago, he became a swordsman, and now, he has already possessed considerable strength, and he can be called a master of swordsmanship.

However, Qin Xiaocang has always emphasized the importance of basic sword training at the beginning, so he did not speed up the progress, and let Qin Feng exercise his body and practice basic sword skills over and over again. Will teach one.

On this day, a shocking news came out from the Qin family. A man named Qin Hao in the collateral lineage, who was dissatisfied, actually became a Lingkui, and he was an extremely rare Feng Lingxiu in the Qin family.Not long after, he was summoned by Qin Xiao, and he was unexpectedly accepted as a direct descendant after an exception. He was also given a generous reward, and his parents' status was greatly improved.

This news is astonishing, but it is also reasonable. The dissatisfied Lingkui is extremely talented in the Qin family, and he is even better than Qin Kui. The Qin family couldn't truly cohere and unite.

However, to Qin Feng, he didn't care about all of this, and he still insisted on his own cultivation.

After becoming a swordsman, he not only practiced in the Qin family, but spent more time practicing swords in a forest in the western suburbs outside the city.There are few people there, and it is much quieter than the Qin family, and there is more space to display powerful sword skills. What's more, there are no strange eyes from the clansman there, nor their sarcasm.

Qin Feng is so happy about the so-called "out of sight, out of sight". Compared with the forest of the Qin family, this forest is more suitable for him to practice.

However, there are wild beasts in the forest, and they generally don't come out of the forest to harass the people, but if someone enters, be careful that they become their prey.

Fortunately, these wild beasts are generally low in strength. Ordinary people encounter them with a narrow escape, but sword masters can escape even if they are defeated, so Qin Feng is not afraid, but it is quite difficult to kill them.

On the Tianling Continent, apart from wild beasts, there is also a more terrifying creature, which people call spirit beasts.

Spiritual beasts have a certain relationship with spiritual practice. The biggest difference between them and wild beasts is that they have more or less spiritual power in their bodies, which can change their bodies, make them stronger and stronger, and even release some special skills.

This spiritual power is generally condensed into a crystal and stored in the body of the spirit beast as its source of power.People call it a spiritual core, and it has many uses, and it is something that spiritual practitioners love very much. High-level spiritual cores are often sold for sky-high prices.

Therefore, there will often be a large number of mercenaries entering places where spirit beasts gather, killing them and seizing their spirit cores.

However, the lowest-level spirit beasts have the strength equivalent to that of a sword leader, and those powerful spirit beasts can even be comparable to high-level spiritual cultivation. They are extremely terrifying, and it is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

In the blink of an eye, another three months later, Qin Feng became a high-level swordsman, and this was still under the condition that Qin Xiaocang suppressed his progress.

On this day, Qin Feng was practicing his sword in the forest when Qin Xiaocang strode over.

He looked at Qin Feng with a satisfied smile on his face, but the sword mark on his left eye was distorted for a while, but it was very disturbing.

After Qin Feng put away his sword, Qin Xiaocang smiled and said, "Feng'er, your progress is so fast, the third uncle is very pleased. But a sword is not just for viewing, it needs real sharpening. Only after going through wind and rain, experience Only after the blood is bloody can you be regarded as a real swordsman and become a strong man. Do you dare to follow the third uncle into the depths of this forest?"

The current Qin Feng has been cultivating in the outskirts of the forest. There are very few wild beasts and they are all quite weak. However, there are many ferocious wild beasts in the depths of the forest. If he is not careful, his soul may return to this place.

"Why don't you dare!" Qin Feng responded.

"Haha, good! Let's go in with third uncle." Qin Xiaocang walked towards the depths of the forest while laughing loudly, and Qin Feng immediately followed closely.

The two uncles and nephews spread their speed and moved forward quickly, and soon saw a wild boar rushing towards them.

"Feng'er, look carefully."

As soon as Qin Xiaocang finished speaking, he raised the sword in his hand seemingly slowly, but in the next moment, he was as quick as a surprise, and directly split the wild boar in two.

The time difference between slow and fast was just right, and he didn't use much force, but he slashed through the most vulnerable tail of the wild boar with his sword.

Qin Feng's eyes lit up, and his heart couldn't help but move.

As for the wild boar's corpse and bloody smell, he didn't feel much discomfort, he just frowned slightly, and returned to normal after a while.

Qin Xiaocang glanced at Qin Feng, did not speak, and continued to lead him forward.

After a while, a hunting wolf was found.

"Feng'er, look carefully." Qin Xiaocang left only this sentence again, then dashed out like a lightning bolt, and went straight to the wolf.

The wolf also spotted Qin Xiaocang, with a gloomy green light in his eyes, bared his teeth, and rushed towards him roaring.

Qin Xiaocang didn't panic, and with a wrong step, he swayed past the wolf in an instant, came to its side, struck its waist with a sword as fast as a surprise, and split the prey in two again.

"Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo" the wolf died, but Qin Xiaocang didn't look at it, and returned to Qin Feng's side in a flash.

In the following time, Qin Xiaocang took Qin Feng to look for the beast all the way, leaving a sentence of "look carefully" every time, and quickly shot, cutting the beast into two neatly, without missing a single one.

As the sun was setting, Qin Xiaocang took Qin Feng out of the forest. There was not even a trace of blood on his body, and even dust was rare. It was as if he was not hunting wild animals, but out for a wild tour.

On the contrary, it was Qin Feng who was busy in the world, his eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something.

Qin Xiaocang felt a little satisfied with Qin Feng's appearance, and nodded slightly.

As night fell, Qin Feng lay on the bed and kept thinking about what happened today, especially what Qin Xiaocang said to him at the end.

On the way out of the forest, Qin Xiaocang said to him: "Feng'er, remember, whether it's wild beasts, spirit beasts, or our sword cultivators and spiritual cultivators, they all have their own weaknesses, and you have to discover them Where it is, and then catch it by surprise, one hit will kill."

And before Qin Xiaocang made every move, he would tell Qin Feng to observe carefully.And every time he makes a move, he aims at the weakness of the beast, this is what he taught Qin Feng.

"Wild boars have rough skin and thick flesh, and their main weakness lies in the belly and tail. The belly is difficult to attack, so we need to start from the tail. And wolves, known as the tofu waist with copper head and iron tail, so the best place to kill is the waist."

Qin Feng muttered to himself, constantly summing up the weaknesses of the beasts, and groping for some rules.
