You are just making up the exercises, my disciple, have you really mastered them?

Chapter 78 Xu Yan learned the art of swordsmanship and the sword’s heart became clear

 Xu Yan was the only one left in the mountain forest.

He stood in the forest and looked around. There were sword marks crisscrossing the trees, and small holes were penetrated into the big trees.

 The neatly cut trees fell to the ground and were cut into more than a dozen pieces.

  The remnants of swordsmanship and sword moves can be vaguely seen.

The more he looked at Xu Yan, the more he seemed to understand. A mess of sword moves appeared in his mind, all of which the master had used.

 It's just that he forgot.

No!

 It cannot be said that I have forgotten it, but I have forgotten the order of the sword moves, which sword was used, and which time it was used.

The chaotic sword moves in his mind were verifying with the marks around him. Suddenly, a certain move overlapped with a sword mark on the ground.

 “This sword mark was caused by this move.”

 Xu Yan murmured to himself.

“The heart of the sword is clear. The first thing is that the heart of the sword is clear. It is not restricted by sword moves and sword techniques. Then it is clear..."

Xu Yan felt that he had some insights.

However, it is still too far away from the clarity of the sword's heart.

At this moment, he seemed to be back in a small mountain village, where he had just started practicing martial arts. He didn't quite understand everything, but he had some insights.

“Forget sword moves, forget sword techniques, and don’t stick to the situation...The first thing I have to do is to make the sword’s heart clear, and for this first step, I should completely forget the sword techniques master danced.

“No! Forgetting does not mean forgetting, but forgetting the form, and breaking away from the framework of swordsmanship...

“Then, what I have to do next is to straighten out the traces of swordsmanship and reproduce them one by one, then forget about the framework, pick sword moves and swordsmanship at will, and finally form my own swordsmanship.

"This is the first step. After completing this step, I should not be far away from the clear heart of the sword!"

Xu Yan just felt a sudden flash of inspiration, and he understood how to understand and how to enter the realm of clear sword heart.

 He jumped onto a big tree, sat on a horizontal branch, looked at the sword marks below, and silently overlapped and confirmed each other with the sword moves in his mind.

“This sword mark covers the previous sword mark. The previous sword mark is almost invisible. How to verify it...

“Why am I stuck in swordsmanship and sword moves?

"That sword mark, although it has been covered, still has veins... it should be this move."

Xu Yan didn’t return to Yunshan County until it got dark.

But his mind is full of sword moves and sword techniques.

When Li Xuan saw his apprentice coming back, he secretly observed it without saying anything and let his apprentice figure it out on his own.

 Talk too much and it will cause interference.

He thought of how Xu Yan practiced in the small village. Now, he is just going through the enlightenment process all over again.

Li Xuan believed that Xu Yan could understand it.

The sword technique he made up is much better than the original one. He even personally showed Xu Yan the sword moves.

“The clear heart of the sword is the basis for practicing kendo. The starting point of kendo for me has increased the talent requirements a lot.

“Once you step into the way of the sword, your power will naturally be stronger.

“This is a frame. In the future, any sword moves or sword skills can be put into it. When Xu Yan goes to the inner realm, no matter what sword skills he has learned, if he puts them into this frame, it will be his own.

  “Furthermore, a new sword technique emerges from the old skill.”

 Li Xuan thought silently.

 Xu Yan was taught the art of swordsmanship, but Meng Chong was a muscular man whose talent was not in the art of swordsmanship.

 But on the path of the sword!

It's time for me to compile the information about the way of swordsmanship, and then I can pass it on to Meng Chong.

“Xu Yan remembered my swordsmanship after reading it once, which shows that he has a very strong memory. This is also the basis for the clear heart of the sword. With this foundation, it should be much easier for him to comprehend.”

Li Xuan also sighed in his heart, Xu Yan's memory is really good.

 You will remember it after reading it once.

 The speed of his gestures was not slow.

 In the following time, Xu Yan studied the art of swordsmanship every day, trying to make his sword heart clear.

 Get up early and go to the mountains and forests to gain enlightenment.

 I didn’t come back until dark.

Meng Chong was stimulated by Xue Wuxin, and he practiced harder and harder. The progress of tempering the golden bones was accelerating.

 Shi Er has also been refining his skin, and the progress is pretty good.

 There are still no changes in Qi State.

 In the capital, the King of Qi, Guo Rongshan, is still the number one among the ministers.

 The third prince came to greet me every day.

 The eldest prince has already gone out to look for the master.

 The rest of the ministers and disciples also continued to search for the master.

Although the son of the Minister of War and others were turned into mummies, and the reason was unknown, Xu Yan did not give an answer, and no one dared to ask.

 Everyone is speculating that he died because he encountered an unknown monster.

When entering the endless mountains to explore, I became cautious and did not dare to go too deep.

There are countless peaks in the endless mountains. It’s hard to know how long it will take to search one peak after another. Teams are shuttled among the mountains.

But most of them had a tacit understanding and avoided exploring the direction of the Minister of War and his party.

It's too dangerous there.

 One month has passed.

Meng Chong’s Golden Bone is almost perfect, and is about to hit the bottleneck of the Golden Bone and cannot continue to temper it.

 Shi Er has completed the leather refining.

With the strength of a top master in the world, it took him so long to complete the skin refining. After all, his qualifications were far behind those of Xu Yan and Meng Chong.

Furthermore, Li Xuan discovered that after Shi Er completed the skin refining, his skin refining strength and Qi and blood strength were not as good as those of Xu Yan and Meng Chong.

 Hide refining is also completed, but there is a big gap in the strength of the skin membrane.

“Skin refining is also divided into levels. It doesn’t matter who completes the skin refining.”

 This is caused by the gap in martial arts qualifications.

 After completing the skin refining, Shi Er’s strength has increased.

Li Xuan then taught him the method of refining bones.

According to Xu Yan, his father has already started refining bones, and his mother has just completed refining skin, which also made him see the gap in martial arts qualifications, and there will be a gap in the harvest of practice.

Physician Pan has also entered the bone refining stage.

Of the rest of the close guards, a small part entered the bone refining process, and a part completed the skin refining process.

This is because Pharmacist Pan made nourishing medicines to assist his cultivation.

As for Guo Rongshan, due to his old age and weakened energy and blood, he missed the best stage of cultivation. He relied on the accumulation of precious medicines and reluctantly entered skin refining.

 Guo Yunkai is more talented. He has completed skin refining and is about to refining bones.

 His two cousins, one has finished refining skin and the other has started refining bone.

“It’s still too far away from getting started in martial arts. It’s impossible to verify it in a short period of time and get any feedback.”

Li Xuan sighed in his heart.

 Among these people, there should be some who are stuck at the entry level of martial arts.

 He noticed that Pharmacist Pan made a medicine that nourishes qi and blood, and it has a very good effect in assisting cultivation.

“Should we get some elixirs? How to compile the elixirs? I don’t understand.”

Li Xuan fell into deep thought.

“The little girl taught by Heavenly Mother has superb medical skills. Maybe we can start with her and see if we can gain any insights.”

Li Xuan thought again of the contemporary Heavenly Mother of the Heavenly Mother Sect, that little girl.

The evildoers she persuaded never did evil again, which was really a good idea.

Last time I asked Shi Er to send a message to the little girl Tianmu to come, but she was still in Wu State and had not come to Qi State yet.

"Don't worry, Meng Chong hasn't started yet. The third disciple will investigate again."

 Li Xuan put this matter aside for the time being.

Xu Yan went out yesterday and did not come back at night. It seems that he has gained something. He should soon realize that the sword's heart is clear!

 He was full of expectations.

 Outside Yunshan County, on a hillside.

Xu Yan sat cross-legged and looked at the sunset in the sky silently.

 He no longer looked at those sword marks in the mountain forest. Instead, he destroyed all the sword marks. At this moment, he looked at the sunset in the sky, his heart was clear, and the sword moves in his mind were constantly evolving at this moment.

He has long forgotten all the swordsmanship taught by his master.

Now, in his mind, a new sword technique is about to take shape.

His state of mind became clearer and clearer, as if he had understood all the sword techniques and sword moves.

 At a certain moment, an idea seemed to flash in my mind.

 The evolved swordsmanship is complete!

At this moment, he entered a mysterious state.

 A heart that is clear and transparent.

Hum!

The sword lying across his knees actually started to tremble at this moment.

 As if it wants to come out of its sheath.

The heart of the sword is clear!

 Xu Yanming realized that the sword’s heart became clear!

 The moment he realized that the sword's heart was clear, the door to the sword had been opened.

 He already had a swordsmanship in his heart and had traces of the way of swordsmanship.

Has been freed from the shackles of swordsmanship.

Even the Dragon Subduing Palm gained a new understanding and was improved as a result.

 The second level of Dragon Subduing Palm has been completed!

Xu Yan opened his eyes, touched the sword on his knee, and with a clang, the sword was unsheathed.

With one hand, he raised his hand and slashed with his sword.

The light of the sword was like a rainbow, streaking through the air and striking a hundred feet away.

 The sword light fell to the ground silently.

If you take a closer look, you will see a thin gap on the ground, spreading dozens of feet, no one knows how deep it is!

“Today, I, Xu Yanjian, have a clear mind and have finally started to learn the art of swordsmanship. You can call me Tongming Sword!”

Xu Yanshi stroked the sword with **** and said.

 Transparent Sword!

 This is his first sword, and it is also the sword that witnessed him stepping into the door of kendo!

“My sword heart has become clear, and I have stepped into the door of swordsmanship. Next, my energy and blood will be perfect, and I will break through the innate realm!”

Xu Yan looked excited.

　　If he had already mastered the sword and entered the path of swordsmanship, how could Xue Wuxin be his opponent?

 “Inner Domain!”

 Xu Yan looked towards the direction of the endless mountains.

He was filled with excitement. There were warriors in the inner realm, and he had been yearning for the martial arts world in the inner realm for a long time.

I have long wanted to enter the martial arts world.

 “Wait a moment, after the Xiantian Realm, go to the Inner Realm!”

 The strength of his parents has not improved yet, and he has not yet broken through the innate realm.

 Hence, I can only suppress the excitement in my heart.

 In the small yard.

Li Xuan was sitting on the chair as usual, sorting out the martial arts he had made up in his mind.

 Especially how to compile and improve the subsequent martial arts methods.

 The realm after the innate realm has been determined by him.

 The direction of cultivation has been determined, but the future realm of martial arts and the direction of cultivation must also have an outline.

“My martial arts is stronger than the martial arts in this world from the beginning, so the martial arts realm in the future must also become stronger and stronger.

“There must be a good connection between realms. If there is a gap and the theory cannot be connected, it will definitely not be understood.”

 After these days of repeated thinking and pondering, Li Xuan has basically straightened out the direction of his subsequent martial arts training.

However, it still needs to be done step by step.

 Only when you have successfully practiced it, can you be sure that it is feasible and can you continue to improve the next level.

“Meng Chong’s golden bone has been perfected, and it is stuck in the golden bone perfection. It cannot temper the diamond glazed bone. It is time to try and help the second disciple to successfully temper the diamond glazed bone.”

 Li Xuan glanced at Meng Chong who was still immersed in cultivation.

 Once the Vajra Glaze Bone is completed, he can break through and step into the Qi and Blood Realm.

 After all, his cultivation is a three-in-one process of skin refining, bone refining, and organ refining.

 Suddenly, golden light appeared.

“Your disciple Xu Yan has realized that the sword’s heart is clear and he has stepped into the door of the sword. Your sword’s heart is clear and you have achieved great success in the way of the sword!”

At this moment, Li Xuan only felt that the heart of the sword was clear and clear to all swords, and his insights on the art of swordsmanship were constantly emerging.

　　A great achievement in the way of swordsmanship, but it can only be regarded as a great achievement in the basics of swordsmanship!

Li Xuan was overjoyed.

“My disciple has the appearance of a swordsman, and my teacher was right about him!”

Humour to Xu Yan, he really understands the sword and has a clear heart, and steps into the door of swordsmanship.

 The improvement of swordsmanship in the future will depend on him.

However, Li Xuan believes that when Xu Yan goes to the inner realm, he will not worry about improving his swordsmanship.

 As the apprentice's swordsmanship improves, his swordsmanship improves even more!

“It’s time to pass on the artistic conception of the sword after the sword heart becomes clear to Xu Yan, so that he can realize the sword’s intention as soon as possible!”

Li Xuan thought happily.

“My disciple Xu Yan has achieved a small success in the second level of the Dragon Subduing Palm. You have perfected the second level of the Dragon Subduing Palm!”

 Have gained something again.

 The second level of Dragon Subduing Palm has been completed.

Xu Yanming realized that the sword's heart was clear, and his understanding of the Dragon Subduing Palm also improved accordingly.

 This is reasonable.

 This shows that Xu Yan's talent and understanding have improved with the clarity of the sword's heart.

Li Xuan raised his finger, and a sword energy emerged.

With a click of a finger, the sword energy flew into the air silently, and the sharp edge was not even noticeable.

 In midair, sword energy criss-crossed.

 “The swordsmanship I made up is really powerful.”

 Li Xuan was excited.

“It should be much more powerful than the swordsmanship in the inner realm, right?”

 In the inner martial arts world, it is not yet known how strong the swordsmanship is.

However, it can be roughly inferred that he is still in the stage of powerful swordsmanship and has not yet touched the level of swordsmanship, so naturally he cannot compare with the swordsmanship he made up.

 In the eyes of those with a clear sword mind, the swordsmanship of the warriors in the inner domain can be seen through at a glance, including flaws and weakness, and they can easily pick out their sword moves for their own use.

“With my current strength, I can kill the Grand Master with one sword!”

Li Xuan flicked his fingers, and the sword energy disappeared in mid-air.

 The strength has been greatly improved again, and the great master of the inner domain will no longer be his opponent.

 This time, it is completely stable.

 Don't worry about the powerful people in the inner domain posing a threat to you.

 “Master, I’m back!”

 Xu Yan came back excitedly.

 “Okay! Okay! Okay!”

Li Xuan was overjoyed and said: "My disciple has the appearance of a sword god, and he really did not disappoint his master!"

Xu Yan suddenly became energetic after hearing this, and his whole body seemed to have transformed.

“Master said I have the appearance of a sword god!”

He patted his chest and said, "Master, I will definitely carry forward your swordsmanship. I will not let you down. I will definitely become a swordsman!"

"Okay! My disciple has this ambition, and I believe you can do it!"

Li Xuan was very happy. His apprentice would become a swordsman in the future, and he... he could wear the hat of the ancestor of swordsmanship in advance!

   I also want to write more, but I really can’t write o(╥﹏╥)o
