Mortal Bones

Chapter 75 Let’s talk about flying a sword. Isn’t it because I taught you well?

"Taiping, words are not enough, do you want to try a sword?"

Xu Ziyan suddenly held a sword that had not been unsheathed in front of her and looked at Xu Taiping with a smile.

"Here?"

Xu Taiping looked around.

Because the competition was over, most of the disciples went down to pick up their fellow disciples, and only a few disciples were still waiting for people.

"You just need to draw your sword, and I will use some force to control the sword inside, so that I can test the general realm of your current sword-controlling skills."

Xu Ziyan smiled and nodded.

"Taiping, you can try."

Zhao Linglong also looked expectant at this time.

Xu Taiping nodded immediately.

To be honest, he actually wanted to know what level his sword-controlling skills were among all the disciples.

"Senior Sister Ziyan, then I'm ready to draw my sword."

Xu Taiping stood up and stood in front of Xu Ziyan.

"Come on, it's not pulled out and it's not..."

"Swish!~"

Xu Ziyan had just finished her words when the long sword in her hand broke free from the restraint of her true energy and suddenly came out of the sheath.

"Zheng!"

In the stunned eyes of everyone, the long sword controlled by Xu Taiping with the sword control technique began to fly around him with the sound of swords. Even though it flew very fast, it still kept a distance of two or three feet from Xu Taiping's body.

After flying four or five circles, Xu Taiping felt that there were more and more people looking at him, so he raised his sword finger and pointed it at Xu Ziyan's scabbard.

"Shua!"

Under the guidance of his soul, the long sword returned to Xu Ziyan's scabbard with incomparable accuracy.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Linglong and Xu Ziyan were silent.

"Sister Linglong, Sister Ziyan, how is it?"

After returning the sword to the sheath, Xu Taiping immediately looked at the two with expectation, waiting for their evaluation.

"Taiping, have you really only practiced for half a month?"

Xu Ziyan's eyes were full of suspicion.

"I can testify to this!" Zhao Linglong happily took Xu Taiping's arm, "Brother Taiping started practicing sword after he went down the mountain to complete the sect's training. It has only been about a month!"

"Then I can only congratulate you seven peaks for having another sword cultivation genius."

Xu Ziyan smiled bitterly.

This scene was seen by a little old man sitting in the corner of the Cloud Tower.

He raised his head and poured a sip of wine into his mouth, then began to curse himself:

"What a shitty genius!"

"Isn't it because I taught you well?"

"Among my disciples, you are the most, most, most stupid one!"

"You have only learned half a thing in half a month. If this gets out, I am afraid that those old men will laugh at me!"

His voice was actually not small, but there seemed to be some kind of restriction around him, so Xu Taiping and others didn't hear it at all.

Let's talk about Xu Taiping.

After hearing what Xu Ziyan said, he pinched his fingers a little embarrassedly.

"Senior sister, you are too kind. I think it should be Elder Sansan who taught me well. When I learned other magic, I didn't have the feeling of practicing swordsmanship now."

He was telling the truth.

The things that Elder Sansan carved on the wooden board looked vulgar at first glance, but they were easy to understand after a closer look, which saved Xu Taiping a lot of detours.

And the old man in the corner couldn't help but raise his mouth after hearing this.

He suddenly poured a sip of wine into his mouth, and then said with a smile:

"You are a little stupid, but you still have some self-knowledge. For this reason, I will give you another 3,000 words tomorrow!"

In fact, no word of the poem he asked Xu Taiping to copy was redundant. Every stroke and every stroke on it had special considerations.

The previous sword marks were also calculated in thickness and depth. Only in this way could Xu Taiping improve at such a fast speed.

However, Xu Taiping's cultivation was too shallow at present, and he didn't realize this at all.

"Although your current sword-controlling skills only stay at the word 'sword-controlling', it is enough if you only participate in the fourth round of the competition."

Beside the railing of Yunlou, Xu Ziyan spoke again at this time.

"Well, there is still half a month, I will spend more time practicing."

Xu Taiping nodded.

"Yes, there is still half a month, Taiping, you continue to practice sword with Elder Sansan, maybe you can help us a lot in the fourth round of competition!"

Zhao Linglong looked expectant.

"It would be great if I could help."

Xu Taiping nodded.

Today's competition, especially the lonely eyes of Senior Sister Jiang Zhi and Senior Brothers 2 and 3 at the end of the competition, touched him greatly.

"Excuse me, is Xu Taiping from Qifeng here?"

Just when several people were about to go downstairs to pick up Senior Brother Qingxiao and others, a young man dressed as a scholar walked upstairs.

Hearing this, several people, including Xu Taiping, looked in the direction of the voice.

"Who are you?"

Xu Taiping looked at the young man in confusion.

"I am the disciple of the Fifth Peak, Du Qianjiang."

The elegant young man smiled at Xu Taiping, and then asked:

"Junior brother, are you Xu Taiping from the Seventh Peak?"

"Yes."

Xu Taiping nodded.

Hearing that the person in front of him was Xu Taiping, Du Qianjiang's face suddenly lit up.

"A few days ago, thanks to you, Taiping, for visiting my junior sister Liu Zijin, otherwise that silly girl might still be on a hunger strike."

Du Qianjiang stepped forward and thanked Xu Taiping very solemnly.

"Brother Du, you are too kind. I didn't do anything. It was Sister Zijin who figured it out herself."

Xu Taiping shook his head.

"In any case, you have helped Zijin."

Du Qianjiang smiled and shook his head, then handed an exquisite wooden box to Xu Taiping:

"This evil-repelling talisman was drawn by our peak master himself. It is quite effective against evil things. The peak master specially asked me to give it to you, Junior Brother Taiping."

Seeing the talisman drawn by the master of the Five Peaks, Zhao Linglong and Xu Ziyan were both stunned and envious.

Among the seven peaks, the Five Peaks are best at talismans.

And the talismans of the Five Peaks' masters are the best in Qingxuan Sect, and even 10,000 merit coins may not be able to exchange for them.

"Brother Du, I really didn't do anything, so I don't deserve such a heavy gift."

Xu Taiping didn't reach out to take it.

He dared not take such a gift casually.

"Brother Taiping, take it."

Du Qianjiang stuffed the wooden box into Xu Taiping's arms with a tough attitude.

"Six days later, Sister Zijin will be sent down the mountain. If you are free, Taiping, come to Wufeng Dengyuntai to see her off. She doesn't have many friends in Qingxuan. If someone can come to see her off when she leaves, she will feel better."

Du Qianjiang sighed.

After saying this, he gave Xu Taiping a token that could enter and exit Wufeng.

"If I have time, I will go."

Seeing that he couldn't refuse, Xu Taiping had to put away the talisman and agreed.

"Okay."

Du Qianjiang smiled and patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder, then turned around and left without saying anything.

...

When going downstairs.

Xu Taiping roughly told Xu Ziyan about how he met Liu Zijin.

"This Lu guy really deserves to be chopped into pieces!"

Zhao Linglong couldn't help but curse indignantly after hearing this.

"He really deserves to be chopped into pieces."
