Maybe it was Dugu Sword that shocked the monks, or maybe it was because of the poison, no monks and other monks chased after him, Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan ran for a while, avoiding all sights, before relaxing.
After a big battle, both of them were a little tired, especially Zhou Jingxuan, who was also injured and was about to find a place to rest.
Suddenly, there was a rustling sound in the forest not far away, and the two of them instantly looked tense.
Zhou Jingxuan shouted in a deep voice: "Who? come out."
Hong Zhan raised his knife and looked at it coldly.
But I saw a few figures slowly walking out of the forest, the leader was dressed in white, not stained with dust, it was the Dugu Sword that had just beheaded a hundred monks and understood cause and effect. Dugu Jian was followed by four sword cultivators, one of whom was holding the spiritual treasure that Dugu Jian had just won, the black long sword.
"The two Taoist friends left in a hurry, are they trying to trap my Bashan Sword Sect in injustice?" Dugu Jian smiled.
Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan looked at him with a frozen expression, still looking at him warily.
"Don't worry, you two, I have no ill intentions, I am here just to repay the favor." Dugu Jian said sincerely.
Zhou Jingxuan relaxed a lot, but Hong Zhan was still on guard: "How did you find us?"
"I have my own way." Dugu Jian said, but did not explain the specifics.
Hong Zhan frowned slightly, and then said: "We did this before, with your strength, you shouldn't need our help."
Dugu Jian shook his head and said: "Those monks really can't do anything about me, but they will prevent me from enlightenment. I, Dugu Jian, don't like to owe favors, so I want to repay your kindness."
Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan looked at each other, they felt that Dugu Jian was extremely sincere, but he also had a strange feeling.
"What do you want?" Hong Zhan asked.
"I see that Zhou Jingxuan's swordsmanship has become fixed and cannot be reversed, but your Hongzhan's knife skills are still very immature, you just learned them not long ago, right?" Dugu Jian said.
"Not bad." Hong Zhan nodded.
"The knife technique is too rough, otherwise, let me teach you a set of swordsmanship." Dugu Jian said.
The four sword cultivators behind him showed extremely envious expressions.
Hong Zhan's face twitched, what's going on? My knife is rough? My knife technique is the first style of the Eight Styles of God Slaughter, and the ability is to beat the knife skills of opponents of the same level, this is called roughness?
Dugu Jian continued: "Your fighting talent is extremely strong, no matter what weapon you learn, you will definitely achieve something.
"I have learned a set of peerless knife techniques, so I don't need to be distracted from learning swordsmanship." Hong Zhan shook his head and said.
Dugu Jian praised: "The way of weapons is precious and specialized, you really have talent, if I guess correctly, I should have learned knife skills from the knife in your hand, right?"
Hong Zhan's expression tightened, and when he saw that he couldn't hide it, he also nodded and said: "The sword spirit taught me the knife technique, and it is said to be one of the strongest knife techniques."
Dugu Jian shook his head and said: "Don't believe it."
"Huh?" Hong Zhan was stunned.
"Little Dao Ling, what insight can you have? Just like the sword spirit I just killed, the little sword spirit, also wants to confuse my mind, want to turn me into its sword slave, and listen to its command? It's ridiculous." Dugu Jian said.
Hong Zhan was stunned and said: "You really cut the sword spirit?"
"The sword spirit is obedient, I can give it a chance to be loyal, it has evil thoughts, what do you want to keep it for? Just re-cultivate a new spirit." Dugu Jian said.
Hong Zhan and Zhou Jingxuan both looked weird, this Dugu Sword was pretending, right?
"No need to teach me swordsmanship, I still like knife skills." Hong Zhan shook his head and said.
Although he was wary of the sword spirit, he didn't believe in Dugu Jian that much.
"Since you don't want to, then so be it." Dugu Jian did not force it, but turned his hand and took out a black token and handed it out: "This is my order talisman, as long as you show this order, the disciples of the Bashan Sword Sect will not embarrass you. And with this order, you can ask me to help you take action once, of course, you must not violate my principles."
Taking the black token, Hong Zhan felt Dugu Jian's strong sincerity. He nodded and said, "Thank you."
"Thank you!" Zhou Jingxuan also said.
Dugu Jian smiled slightly, turned his head and left with the four sword cultivators.
When leaving, he said again without looking back: "Hong Zhan, one last piece of advice for you, your fighting talent is very strong, but you are also very immature, I hope you can tap your potential, don't be limited to any set of knife techniques, and sharpen your own way. I look forward to you catching up with us one day."
Saying that, Dugu Jian and his party disappeared into the forest.
Hong Zhan felt a burst of emotion in his heart, he could hear Dugu Jian's sincere advice, although he still didn't understand it, but it benefited him a lot.
"Thank you for your guidance!" Hong Zhan bowed solemnly to the uninhabited front.
"Dugu Sword? I have never heard of this name, when did the Bashan Sword Sect produce such a sword strongman?" Zhou Jingxuan sighed, and then looked at Hong Zhan and said: "You keep the token, I can't use it."
Hong Zhan was not polite, put away the token and said: "Find a place to rest first."
Zhou Jingxuan nodded, and the two quickly left the place and walked for another half a day before finding a hidden valley to rest.
"What happened before? Why does spiritual wisdom care so much about quitting greed?" Zhou Jingxuan said curiously.
Hong Zhan explained the reason.
Zhou Jingxuan was stunned: "An illegitimate child? Spiritual wisdom is never close to women, how is that possible?"
"If it weren't for an illegitimate child, how could spiritual wisdom be so good at quitting greed?" Hong Zhan said.
Saying that, he took out the storage bag of the Quie Greed and poured out four spiritual jade boxes from it.
"Huh?" Zhou Jingxuan took it in surprise.
She used a specific spell to open the sealing spirit jade box, and suddenly, a large amount of spiritual energy surged out of it, and there was a spirit fruit placed in each spirit sealing jade box.
"Is it true that Que greed is the illegitimate son of spiritual wisdom?" Zhou Jingxuan said with a strange expression.
On Ten Thousand Demon Island, there will be a True Sea Realm Great Demon guarding near each spirit fruit, and Jie Greed can only use the strength of the peak of the innate realm, getting one or two spirit fruits is already luck, and having four spirit fruits is a bit exaggerated.
"Leave their chaotic relationship alone, four spirit fruits, two for each person." Hong Zhan said.
"Okay!" Zhou Jingxuan was also polite and nodded.
Hong Zhan immediately swallowed two spiritual fruits, and for a while, a huge aura erupted in his body, he quickly entered meditation, suppressing this spiritual energy while refining it into true qi and improving his cultivation.
With a bang, a yin vein was rushed away, and he continued to practice.
The second, third, and ninth yin veins, he sat for three days.
At this time, Zhou Jingxuan had already woken up, although she was in a hurry, but seeing that Hong Zhan had not woken up, she finally suppressed her anxious heart and waited patiently.
Two days later, with a bang, a black wind erupted from Hong Zhan's body, and the black wind rotated rapidly around Hong Zhan, causing the surrounding temperature to drop sharply, causing a large number of snowflakes to fall. Wherever the black wind passed, all the grass and trees were frosty, and the cold was biting, and even Zhou Jingxuan next to him was furious and retreated again and again.
"The seventh level of the innate realm? The wind is raging? What a weird Nine Netherworld Yin Feng Gong." Zhou Jingxuan exclaimed.
Hong Zhan slowly opened his eyes, and as soon as his true qi subsided, the black wind around him disappeared, and he smiled and said: "I also want to thank you for passing on this technique to me."
"Nature is tricky, my father has been preparing this exercise for many years, and he hopes that after I am born, he can become a netherworld holy body so that he can practice for me. It's a pity that I didn't finish my studies, but I took advantage of you." Zhou Jingxuan smiled bitterly.
"Why does your father think you might be the Holy Body of the Netherworld?" Hong Zhan said curiously.
Zhou Jingxuan suddenly fell silent, with a hint of sadness on her face.
"Won't your father let you say it? If it's secret, you don't need to say it. It's okay, I don't really want to know." Hong Zhan said immediately.
"No, I suddenly miss my father." Zhou Jingxuan sighed slightly and smiled bitterly.
"Your father, what's wrong?" Hong Zhan seemed to have noticed something was wrong and asked immediately.
"He, dead." Zhou Jingxuan said in a low voice.
"Sorry, I don't know." Hong Zhan said immediately.
"It's okay, it's all over." Zhou Jingxuan smiled dryly and comforted Hong Zhan.
He didn't want to go too deep into this topic, so he immediately changed the topic and said: "Fairy Zhou, can I learn swordsmanship from you?"
Sword flight? He had long been greedy, and asking Zhou Jingxuan at this moment just eased Zhou Jingxuan's emotions.
"Yes, I'll teach you first, and you can practice slowly on the way." Zhou Jingxuan nodded and said.
As she spoke, she carefully taught Hong Zhan the art of swordsmanship, and Hong Zhan's learning ability was extremely strong, and he quickly figured out the principle.
The so-called swordsmanship is just pouring the strength of the whole body into the sword, and then using specific techniques to manipulate one's own power in the sword.
The sword is shot, and the power is not as good as that of one's own hands, and there is even a risk of being taken away by the strong, and it is generally only used for the weak.
The same is true for the sword flight, stepping on the sword, constantly pouring true qi to promote flight, extremely consuming true qi.
Hong Zhan used the God Slaughter Knife to perform swordsmanship for a while, and quickly mastered the trick. I saw that under the manipulation of his magic technique, the God Slayer Knife flew around the valley like a ghost, flew for a while, and then fell back into his hand with great accuracy.
"Swordsmanship really consumes a lot of true qi and cannot be used all the time." Hong Zhan pinched the spell and sighed.
Zhou Jingxuan's emotions had already adjusted, and she even said in astonishment: "Dugu Jian said that you have super combat talent, sure enough, it took me a whole day to learn swordsmanship, you learn it once, you will be done?"
"Is swordsmanship difficult to learn?" Hong Zhan wondered.
Zhou Jingxuan: "......"
She had seen many people who couldn't learn swordsmanship in a month, but she only learned swordsmanship for one day, thinking that she was super talented, but compared to Hong Zhan, it was too ...... to hit people.
Seeing Zhou Jingxuan's strange expression, Hong Zhan guessed it, and he immediately changed the topic and said: "Otherwise, let's hurry first, it will delay a lot of time."
"Okay!" Zhou Jingxuan suppressed her emotions and nodded.
The two of them simply packed up and walked out of the valley, argued for direction, and left quickly.
