Chapter 549: Lao Jiang Teaches You How to Make Popsicles
Sword cultivation is an ancient branch of the Ku Mu Realm cultivation system.
There is a saying in the mortal world that the sword is the king of all weapons. It is both handsome and powerful to use. Whether it is marching and fighting, or gathering for a fight, the sword is indispensable.
The circle of monks is a transcendent system built above the mortal world. Ever since the monks appeared, they have had some characteristics that were strongly influenced by the rules of the mortal world.
This circle is above the mortal world, but its internal structure is extremely similar to that of mortal society.
Whether it is a sect, the distinction between good and evil, or the conflict between races, they are all born out of the mortal world.
In the world of Eden, this form is called civilization characteristics.
Since cultivators are born from the mortal world, they will inevitably be influenced by it.
In the cultivation circle, there are all kinds of magical instruments and treasures, and it is not uncommon to cast spells with bare hands, but if we talk about which weapon is more favored by cultivators, it must be swords.
Spell-casting monks would often carry a sword as a decoration, and among the weapon-making blueprints in the Mo Shuang Mountain's weapon storage pavilion, a small half were swords. Even one of Mo Shuang Mountain's sect-guarding spiritual treasures was made into the form of a Xuan Tian sword.
This fanatical love for swords probably stems from the saying that sword is a gentleman's weapon.
In the sword forging shop, which is the best at forging, there is an excellent description of swords: The sword is a sacred item in ancient times, supreme and precious, revered by both humans and gods. It is the ancestor of short weapons and a weapon for close combat.
Because of his profound Taoist art, he became a legendary figure.
Sword cultivators are a group of people who use swords and swordsmanship to the extreme. There are a lot of them in Kumu Realm. Anyone who carries a sword or has a sword-using technique can call himself a sword cultivator.
But when it comes down to it, there is still a difference between true sword practitioners and false sword practitioners.
Most of the guys who proudly call themselves sword masters are actually just showing off.
In addition to using swords, they also practice other skills, but true sword practitioners are very fundamentalist.
They only used swords.
All his practice is focused on the sword. Just like a true body cultivator rejects all spells, a true sword cultivator will not waste his time learning other techniques.
Their practice is also different from that of other monks.
While other monks were meditating and absorbing spiritual energy, they were practicing sword skills.
While other cultivators were refining elixirs and making weapons, they were practicing sword skills.
While other cultivators were cultivating their spirits and bodies, they were still practicing swordsmanship.
Start with the most basic sword techniques and sword moves, then when you have mastered the skills, start learning the art of wielding a sword. When you have mastered the art of wielding a sword, continue learning the art of combining mind and sword.
When he had reached a high level of knowledge, he began to use the art of sword-keeping to practice his own true understanding of the way of the sword, and based on this, he shaped his sword body and soul.
Then he entered the Tao with the sword, pursuing the ultimate in swordsmanship, while using his body to kill outsiders and the sword to kill the inner demons, until finally, he stepped into the sea of suffering and achieved perfection in his swordsmanship.
After entering the Tao with the sword, one then seeks to break the Tao with the sword, transcend the sea of suffering, and step onto the other shore.
This set of practice is incompatible with the practice of cultivators and is very risky, which has resulted in the failure of the orthodox sword practice circle to develop and has also led to fake sword practice running rampant throughout the world.
But the consequence of being so obsessed with swords is that as long as they have mastered the basics of sword cultivation, their destructive power will far exceed that of other cultivators. Therefore, orthodox sword cultivators are the group of people who should not be provoked in this Ku Mu Realm.
They often achieve amazing results by killing enemies above their level.
Maybe I can't beat you.
But there is definitely a way to drag you down with me.
The sword is the weapon, magic weapon, elixir, mount, lifelong friend and also lifelong enemy of orthodox sword practitioners.
The reason why I say this is because you can see the postures of the eighteen sword masters in front of Lao Jiang.
They came one by one on their swords, looking extremely elegant, with sword energy flowing around their bodies, blending together, with a strong momentum to break the sky and cut the earth. With the superposition of the sharp sword energy, even from a distance of a hundred feet, one could see the surrounding mountains being cut apart layer by layer.
It was as if there were a thousand invisible swords flying around, cutting through everything like a herd of beasts.
But underneath this cool posture, the eighteen sword masters all had shabby looks, and they were not wearing any proper training clothes. Instead, they were all dressed in rags and came barefoot.
With dull eyes and stiff postures, both men and women look like beggars with messy hair.
This dejected look formed a sharp contrast with the swords in their hands and feet, which were full of spirit and their bodies were like swimming dragons, roaring as if they were about to come alive.
It was as if the spirit sword was the master and the person holding the sword was just a servant.
Of course this is not normal!
Each of the eighteen sword cultivators is in the divine realm.
But unless they are idiots or mavericks, they will not dress themselves like this. They are from Kunlun Sect, not the Beggars' Sect.
This strange form is the "second form" of orthodox sword cultivation, or called "wrong evolution".
When they were practicing the art of combining mind and sword, something went wrong. They were supposed to control the sword, but they were probably too immersed in the spiritual charm of the sword and could not extricate themselves.
In the process of talking with the sword, he lost himself, causing his soul to be controlled by the sword instead.
From controlling the sword with the man, to controlling the man with the sword.
Such sword cultivators are called "sword slaves". As the name suggests, they use their physical body and soul to nourish the scabbard of their spiritual swords. They are just like Mohist puppets and have no ability to think independently.
This is just like an orthodox cultivator going astray and becoming possessed, which means his practice is useless.
If there were no great sword masters to lend a helping hand, these sword slaves would have had all their essence sucked out by the spiritual swords, and would eventually suffer the five decays of heaven and man, and die.
Unfortunately, none of the great sword cultivators are living Bodhisattvas. Why should they help you?
Therefore, except for a few lucky ones, the value of most sword slaves' existence is to nurture the spiritual charm of the sword with their own strength. After their death, the spiritual sword they nurtured will be improved in both grade and power.
This is also the biggest reason why Kunlun Sect has always been criticized by cultivators. These orthodox sword cultivators are cruel. They say there are three thousand disciples and three thousand swords, but no one knows how many of them have become sword slaves.
The top leaders of Kunlun Sect don't care at all. They follow a cruel logic of survival: trash who can't even tame their own swords is not worth saving at all.
It is said that the Kunlun Sect's Zhenjie Sword Pavilion hides nearly a thousand spiritual swords of various colors, each of which has its own magical powers. It is a holy place in the hearts of sword lovers all over the world.
But there is no need to ask where those spiritual swords came from.
The key issue is that the Kunlun Sect is also cunning. Every few years, they will gather swordsmen from all over the world to gather at the top of Kunlun to compete in swordsmanship. Both cultivators and mortals can participate.
He would also "give" the magic swords in the warehouse to swordsmen with superb swordsmanship.
If you wait patiently for a dozen years, another group of powerful sword slaves will voluntarily return to Kunlun Mountain. The Kunlun Sect was initially founded on this method of "cutting leeks" and developed little by little.
“They are all poor people.”
At this time, Lao Jiang was wearing a blood pigeon mask and a blood robe, and lightning was swirling around him, looking like an evil cultivator. He looked at the sword slaves flying in front of him, and said in a compassionate tone:
"Look at all of you. Your blood, bones, and essence are about to be drained by the spirit sword. Even if I don't take action, you probably won't live for many years.
It is so heartbreaking to hear it and shed tears to see it. Today, I, Tianluo Taoist, will do you a favor.
May you all be saved and go on your way.”
The moment he finished speaking, Lao Jiang's figure disappeared from the spot, as if he had flashed in the air, and he jumped several times in a row, and took the initiative to attack the eighteen sword slaves.
Under the mask, the golden eye on his forehead opened, and his eyesight was activated. He used the gold of the Five Elements to transform into hundreds of Geng and Xin Qi, just like the invisible sword energy of Ten Thousand Swords Returning to Their Origin, and shot out towards the three sword slaves in front of him.
Although the latter three are sword slaves, their sword skills should not be underestimated.
When the invisible sword energy surged, everyone held their swords to defend themselves. Three spiritual swords and three completely different sword skills were unleashed.
It was suddenly dark all around Old Jiang, and a black crow appeared. Evil water was approaching, and he was in a murderous situation. The three parties were trying to crush Old Jiang into ashes in an instant.
But Lao Jiang did not dodge or evade, allowing the attack to fall on him.
The invisible sword piercing out of the darkness, the pecking of the noisy flying black crows, and the evil water sword technique that melted everything fell on him, corroding his blood robe, but had no power to enter his flesh and blood again.
Died of laughter.
There's no way to break the defense!
Under the catalysis of fusion agents, Lao Jiang's flesh and blood was already comparable to those of body cultivators at the same level. After awakening in the Red Moon Realm, he was tempered by the Red Moon Fruit.
Even if a fellow like Shan Qiu Ming came over and punched him ten times, Lao Jiang could withstand it, not to mention the eighteen sword slaves in front of him whose combat power was forcibly raised to the spiritual realm by the spiritual sword.
Even if they were to use a hundred moves, they would probably be able to tear open Old Jiang's flesh and blood.
At this moment, Boss Jiang was holding the broken Seven Stars Sword and was still in the mood to swing the sword and fight against the three sword slaves. The clanging sounds of weapons clashing could be heard in the shrouded darkness of sword magic.
The evil cultivator Lao Jiang performed a very cool sword technique learned from the Seven Stars Cleansing Edge Curse, but was slashed by nearly a hundred swordsmen from the three sword slaves around him.
The blood-red robe on his body also became torn into pieces, just like the attire of the Beggar Gang elder.
Lao Jiang's swordsmanship, apart from being cool, has no effect at all.
He was a Mohist cultivator who used magic weapons to fight. Compared with the orthodox sword cultivators, he was really lame. Fortunately, with the cover of the Dark Night Sword Technique, this embarrassing posture would not be seen by others.
"Buzz"
The world channel opened in the hands of the angry Lao Jiang, and cold air surged out from the space where the waves were floating. The three sword slaves realized that something was wrong and wanted to escape on their swords immediately.
But you want to leave after offending Boss Jiang?
You wish!
"Buzz"
The divine consciousness that had expanded to the extreme was like a net, grabbing the area covered by the night sword technique and pulling the three sword slaves who were unable to dodge into it. In the spinning world, they were thrown into the Taiyin Cold Abyss... uh, no, the planet of the Headless Knight.
The three sword slaves fell into it and wanted to fight back.
But as soon as they flew up, their bodies were frozen by the omnipresent winter power on this planet, and the three spiritual swords in their hands were also completely frozen amidst the wailing.
However, this spiritual sword is of very high grade, so it will not be damaged by the freezing. Its power will be affected for sure, but that doesn't matter. I can find a few more sword slaves to absorb the energy from it, and it will be replenished.
"ha!"
As the Night Sword Technique was broken, in the peeling of the black smoke, Lao Jiang, wearing a mask, holding the Seven Stars Sword, posed in a handsome sword-sheathing posture in front of the other fifteen sword slaves.
Shamelessly declared:
"This evil cultivator's sword technique of shifting all realms is invincible in the world! Hahahaha!"
When the fifteen sword slaves saw that the evil cultivator in front of them had killed three of their companions with his sword alone in less than ten breaths, they realized that the man in front of them was very powerful, and they stopped attacking.
The purpose of their coming here is to seize the Soul-Devouring Seal and bring it back to Kunlun Sect before Fang Qingyun's soul is destroyed.
Fighting for life with this strange looking evil cultivator in front of you is not the best option.
But they didn't move, and Lao Jiang attacked again.
Perhaps inspired by the previous battle, Lao Jiang this time poured the power to maintain the world channel into the broken blade of the Seven Stars Sword.
Wrapped in lightning, he came whistling, without using any cool sword moves, he just drew his sword and slashed around.
But he had the ability to teleport and his speed made it difficult for these sword slaves to dodge. With a bang, the swords clashed. The moment the two swords touched, the sword slaves holding the swords were thrown into the planet of the Headless Knight while the world was spinning.
A moment later, another "popsicle" appeared there.
"Don't run, you coward!"
Lao Jiang wielded the Seven Lights Sword, chasing after the remaining fourteen sword slaves and slashing at them, shouting as he slashed:
"Come and learn sword techniques from this evil cultivator!"
But the sword slaves were only controlled in their minds, they were not stupid.
The thief in front of him is ferocious and cannot be defeated. The only option now is to retreat temporarily and find another expert from the sect to come over.
but……
"Whoosh"
The blood falling from the sky was like a piercing spear, coming with great force.
The sword slaves who were being chased and hacked by Lao Jiang had no way to dodge and were pierced by the red light, like candied haws. Three of them were pierced in a row and nailed to the mountain that had been mostly collapsed.
"Junior brother! Get out of the way!"
" The rest will be taken care of by this evil magic spear cultivator!"
