Sword from Songshan

Chapter 80 Golden Snake Sword Technique
Woo~woo~!

When we rushed out of the cave, we did not hear the expected flashing of swords and sabers, but instead heard a burst of low music.

A group of Five Poison Sect disciples were about twenty steps away from the cave entrance. Among them were five men and women. They were playing instruments such as the xiao, Miao flute, and night flute. The music sounded low and strange.

Rustle~sha~!

Lu Nanxing was just wondering what the other party's intention was when he suddenly heard a sound of friction on the ground around him.

Snakes, scorpions, centipedes, spiders, toads, a large number of poisonous creatures, have surrounded the cave entrance, and under the command of the music, they quickly rushed towards Lu Nanxing.

"I see."

Lu Nanxing suddenly realized that the Five Poison Sect was good at using poison and driving poisonous substances. Compared with ordinary swords and knives, these poisonous substances were more powerful weapons.

There are poisonous insects everywhere. Even the top masters would feel their scalp tingling at such a scene.

For example, more than two hundred years ago, Hong Qigong, one of the Five Great Masters, was helpless when facing Ouyang Feng's snake formation.

But unfortunately, Lu Nanxing is not an ordinary person, and the poison poses no threat to him.

Hiss~hiss~!

Less than ten steps away, the snake among the poisonous creatures suddenly stopped, spitting out its tongue agitatedly. No matter how the Five Poison Sect disciples urged it with music, it dared not move forward another step.

After a few moments of stalemate, the snakes suddenly turned around and fled.

"what happened!"

The woman playing the night flute frowned and looked at Lu Nanxing with anger and confusion.

She wondered what tricks the thief had used to scare away her snake formation!

Although it was unexpected, it made sense. Since he was able to come out of the Poison Dragon Cave safely, he must have a way to resist poisonous snakes.

Fortunately, in addition to the poisonous snakes, the Five Saints Formation also has four other poisonous creatures that are not affected.

Rustle~rustle~!

Under the urging of the other four fellow disciples, the remaining poisonous creatures arrived in front of Lu Nanxing.

Lu Nanxing stood there motionless, allowing these poisonous creatures to crawl up along his feet.

In just a moment, spiders, centipedes, scorpions, and toads were crawling all over his body.

These poisonous creatures were carefully cultivated by the disciples of the Five Poison Sect, and each one was extremely poisonous! Under normal circumstances, one was enough to knock down a master, but at this moment, Lu Nanxing had more than hundreds of them on him.

The Five Poison Sect disciples had grim looks in their eyes. In their opinion, Lu Nanxing was doomed to die!
It's ridiculous that he was so scared that his whole body was stiff and he couldn't even run away. With such courage, he dared to come to the Poison Dragon Cave to steal treasures.

"As expected of the Five Poison Sect."

Lu Nanxing stood where he was, withdrew his protective qi, and allowed the poisonous creature to bite him.

Looking inward, the toad and centipede images on the small wooden tripod were lighting up quickly, especially the centipede image, which was lighting up extremely fast, almost three times as fast as the toad image.

"what?"

While being delighted, Lu Nanxing suddenly discovered.

Not only centipedes, but also spiders and scorpions can light up the centipede picture after stinging him.

How is this going?

Lu Nanxing originally thought that the eight pictures on the small wooden tripod needed corresponding animal toxins to light up.

Therefore, in the process of lighting up the snake map, he has been trying his best to find various venomous snakes.

It was not until we entered the Poison Dragon Cave that it was finally fully lit.

But now it seems that this is not the case.

"Could it be..."

Could it be that these patterns do not represent a single species, but a class?
Toads, martens, cranes, snakes, centipedes, plants, earth, rocks, and smoke.

Looking more closely at the patterns on the small wooden tripod, Lu Nanxing suddenly opened his eyes wide. Yes, that's it!

"I'm so stupid."

After understanding, Lu Nanxing couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

If we had figured it out earlier, the snake diagram would have been lit up long ago, and we wouldn't have to wait until now.

Although it is frustrating, it has to be done.

Fortunately, I have finally discovered it, and I can avoid many detours in the future.

"almost."

Although these poisonous creatures are small in size, there are many of them. After a few breaths, Lu Nanxing's body was already full of wounds. If he continued to be bitten, I'm afraid there would be no good skin or flesh left.

Many scorpions and spiders are of the same species and have the same venom, so getting bitten a few more times is pointless and a waste of suffering.

Bang~!

Lu Nanxing used his luck to send all the poisonous substances around him flying away.

Looking at it again now, in just a few breaths, the toad image on the small wooden tripod was nearly one-fifth lit up, and the centipede image was more than one-third lit up!

It is worthy of being called the Five Poisons Sect. In terms of the types of poisons alone, it is unrivaled in the world.

"How...how could this happen!"

The poisonous creature was suddenly flung away, and Lu Nanxing stood there, seemingly completely unharmed. Everyone in the Five Poison Sect all changed their expressions.

Woo~woo~!

Then, continue playing the instrument to urge the poisonous creature to continue biting.

"what happened!"

But unlike before, this time Lu Nanxing seemed to be surrounded by an invisible layer of protection, and the poison could no longer hurt him!

"hateful!"

"Come on, everyone!"

"Take back the Golden Snake Sword!"

With a shout, all the members of the Five Poison Sect rushed forward.

Although it was unexpected that the Five Saints' formation was broken, with dozens of them, how could they not be able to take down a small thief!
If the poison can't kill Lu Nanxing, then use a sword to kill him!

Desecrate the holy place, steal the treasures, in short, don't let him leave alive.

"recapture?"

Looking at the disciples of the Five Poison Sect who were rushing towards him, and then looking at the Golden Snake Sword in his hand, Lu Nanxing suddenly revealed a wicked smile on his face.

He inserted the Juque back into the leather bag on his back, then held the Golden Snake Sword in his hand, made a sword flower casually, and immediately rushed forward.

Didn’t you say you wanted to take it back? Then just take it from him.

At this time, there were at least fifty to sixty-five members of the Poison Sect outside the cave, twenty or thirty more than the guards last night.

It must be that he and Fei Bin broke into the Poison Dragon Cave and the news was passed back to the Five Poison Sect, so reinforcements were specially sent.

These were the elite disciples of the Five Poison Sect, and their martial arts were at least second-rate, and they were all experts in the martial arts world. But facing Lu Nanxing, who was now at the third-rate of the first-rate, they were far behind.

With the protection of the body's protective qi, he could protect himself even if surrounded by enemies. And if Lu Nanxing wanted to escape, these people couldn't stop him.

There was no pressure, so he just played with them and wielded the Golden Snake Sword at will.

The tip of the Golden Snake Sword has two forks, which can be used for stabbing, hooking the enemy's weapons, dragging or stabbing diagonally, all of which can hurt the enemy. It has many more uses than an ordinary long sword.

Based on the description of the Golden Snake Sword Technique in the novel and his own insights into swordsmanship, Lu Nanxing tried his best to unleash the power of the Golden Snake Sword.

And these disciples of the Five Poison Sect were his test subjects for verifying his sword moves.

"interesting."

The strange tactics seemed a little awkward at first, but they became more and more skillful as they were used more and more frequently.

Looking at the Golden Snake Sword in his hand, Lu Nanxing's face was filled with joy. For a moment, inspiration came like a spring, and he could use the sword techniques that matched the Golden Snake Sword effortlessly.

Lu Nanxing studied Songshan Sword Technique 3.0 based on the Exorcist Sword Technique.
The Exorcist Sword technique is complex, tricky and fast. Lu Nanxing used a big sword, giving up speed for complexity and trickery. Later, he learned from the strengths of various schools and gradually stopped emphasizing trickery and only pursued complexity.

In just a few months, he developed more than 700 sword moves. After reaching the peak and then declining, he realized that no matter how many changes there are, they still remain essentially the same, and finally retained the thirteen basic sword moves.

The final Juque sword technique can be said to be a combination of the complexity of the Bixie sword technique!
The Golden Snake Sword is used at this time. Due to the special nature of this sword, the moves are inherently weird and strange, but it fits the weirdness of the Exorcism Sword Technique!
The Exorcism Sword Technique, as a unique skill, enabled Lu Nanxing to rapidly improve his swordsmanship level in a short period of time.

At this time, he himself had not yet realized that he had combined the tricks of the Exorcist Sword Technique and borrowed from various sword techniques to create the Golden Snake Sword Technique. These moves seemed to be done at will, but in fact, everything had its roots.

During the fight with the disciples of the Five Poison Sect, his sword moves were endless and were also rapidly improved.

This is what is called a feeding move.

These disciples of the Five Poison Sect have become the whetstone for Lu Nanxing to develop his sword skills.

"This is the Golden Snake Sword Technique!"

Although there was no time to investigate further, Lu Nanxing soon discovered that he was performing the Golden Snake Sword Technique at this time.

He just picked up a Golden Snake Sword by chance, but he didn't expect that he would create the Golden Snake Sword Technique.

The so-called Golden Snake Sword Technique was originally a sword technique in the Golden Snake Secret Book written by Xia Xueyi in the late Ming Dynasty.

By accident, Lu Nanxing brought this sword technique to the world a hundred years earlier.

But think about it, Xia Xueyi created the Golden Snake Sword Technique based on the characteristics of the Golden Snake Sword.

Lu Nanxing also got the Golden Snake Sword. Although his talent might not be as good as Xia Xueyi's, with the Exorcism Sword Technique as a reference, it is not surprising that he created the Golden Snake Sword Technique.

"almost."

The Golden Snake Sword became more and more proficient in his hands, and he already knew twenty or thirty moves. Gradually, Lu Nanxing calmed down and prepared to break out.

After all, this is the holy land of the Five Poisons Sect. In case something unexpected happens, it is better to get out of here as soon as possible.

Whoosh~!

Just as Lu Nanxing was about to rush out, a sound of breaking air suddenly was heard, and a long whip rolled towards him from mid-air.

Among the eighteen weapons, the whip is a very special one.

It is difficult to practice, it is soft and invisible and hard to control, and you may even hit yourself if you are not careful. It is also difficult to deal with, it has no force at all and changes unpredictably.

Zuo Feiying of the Songshan School was good at using whips, and was even known as the Nine Tribulations Whip. He used a lock whip made of metal sections, while the whip that attacked was a completely soft leather whip, which was more difficult to deal with.

The whip came with great force, and if you were caught in it, you would be in trouble. Lu Nanxing did not dare to neglect it, and did not block the whip with the Golden Snake Sword in his hand, but stabbed it directly at the tip of the whip!
To deal with this kind of soft whip, if you use normal blocking or chop the middle part, the whip will be bent in half due to its flexibility, and the tip can still be used to whip.

Only by hitting its end can you knock it back completely.

"Hey~ The little thief has dirty hands and feet, but his martial arts skills are not bad."

A delicate voice was heard, and a woman came out from the crowd holding a whip.

Barefoot, wearing a blue shirt and trousers with white flowers, and an embroidered apron from chest to knees, colorful and magnificent. On her ears, she wore a pair of huge gold earrings, as big as the mouth of a wine glass.

She looked to be about twenty-three or twenty-four years old, with slightly yellow skin and very large eyes. Not only was her appearance beautiful, but her manners and words also revealed a coquettish and charming aura.

"Could it be..."

Seeing the appearance and temperament of the person coming, Lu Nanxing couldn't help but frown slightly.

"Master!"

The disciples of the Five Poison Sect made way for the woman and saluted her one after another.

Lu Nanxing sighed secretly. As expected, the person who came was Lan Fenghuang, the leader of the Five Poisons Sect.

She was in Hubei before, and I didn't expect her to come back so soon.

As the leader of the Five Poisons Sect, Lan Fenghuang is also a first-rate master.

Although she is only at the fourth level, if her ability to use poison is taken into account, ordinary third level masters may not be able to defeat her.

Lu Nanxing has a small wooden tripod. Although it is not afraid of poison, it is still very troublesome if he relies on martial arts alone.

"Little thief, return the Golden Snake Sword to me obediently. I can forgive you because you are so pretty and lovely."

Lan Fenghuang smiled, her voice was sweet enough to make it sick, and she gently hooked her index finger at Lu Nanxing.

"Okay."

Lu Nanxing also smiled and walked towards Lan Fenghuang.

There were still three steps away, and he stabbed forward with the Golden Snake Sword in his hand!

"Men's mouths are deceitful, and none of them are good."

Lan Fenghuang snorted coldly. She was clearly angry, but also had a hint of charm in her expression.

He teased, but without any delay, he flicked the whip towards the Golden Snake Sword.

The soft whip in Lan Fenghuang's hand is none other than the scorpion tail whip, one of the Five Poison Sect's unique weapons. Not only is it covered with tiny hooks and barbs, it also contains a deadly poison!

Tsk~!

With a sharp sound, the scorpion tail whip wrapped around the Golden Snake Sword.

There was still a part at the end, but it was pulled towards the back of Lu Nanxing's hand holding the sword.

Lu Nanxing's face was as gloomy as water. He immediately twisted his wrist to release the force from the whip. At the same time, he quickly grasped the tip of the whip and the hilt of the sword together with his palm.

"What a beautiful skill, what a quick reaction, but it's a pity..."

"What a pity."

Lu Nanxing smiled lightly and pulled with all his strength.

Lan Fenghuang also hurriedly exerted her strength to prevent herself from being pulled over by Lu Nanxing.

The weapons intertwined, and the two men seemed to be playing tug-of-war, but in fact they were competing in strength.

"Why haven't you been poisoned yet?"

After a moment, seeing that Lu Nanxing's strength had not decreased at all, Lan Fenghuang frowned.

Lu Nanxing smiled. It seemed that Lan Fenghuang had just returned not long ago. She didn’t even see him breaking the Five Saints Formation just now, and didn’t know that he was immune to the poison.

However, the poison on the Blue Phoenix Scorpion Tail Whip was quite powerful and it directly lit up a section of the centipede image.

"Come here you go!"

Lu Nanxing didn't bother to talk to Lan Fenghuang, he gathered all his internal strength and pulled hard.

Lan Fenghuang's internal strength was slightly weaker than Lu Nanxing's, and she was distracted for a moment and was immediately pulled over.

However, Lan Fenghuang reacted very quickly. She clenched her other hand and slapped it towards Lu Nanxing's chest.

Lu Nanxing also raised his left hand into a claw and faced Lan Fenghuang.

In this way, the two men each held their weapons and fought one-handedly at close range.

In a blink of an eye, more than ten moves were exchanged, but no one gained the upper hand.

As the distance shortened, the whip wrapped around the Golden Snake Sword loosened a little. Lan Fenghuang shook it vigorously, and the force surged along the entire whip.

Lu Nanxing opened his eyes slightly, and quickly let go, letting the whip slip out.

The weapons separated, and Lan Fenghuang attacked Lu Nanxing again. Lu Nanxing did not hold back, and used the Golden Snake Sword Skills that he had just learned.

After dozens of moves, the two were still evenly matched.

The Blue Phoenix's poison was ineffective against Lu Nanxing. In fact, if Lu Nanxing had not deliberately honed his Golden Snake sword skills, he would have had the upper hand even if he had not won.

"I won't play with you!"

Now that Lan Fenghuang is here, other masters from the Five Poison Sect should also be on the way and could arrive at any time.

You can practice sword skills at any time. Lu Nanxing did not delay any longer. He stabbed Lan Fenghuang with a sudden move, temporarily forcing her to retreat, then he withdrew and ran away.

"Stop him!"

"Don't let him get away!"

"Come on!"

The Five Poison Sect disciples around him shouted and tried to stop him, but Lu Nanxing was determined to leave and they couldn't stop him.

Seeing Lu Nanxing break through the encirclement and escape, Lan Fenghuang immediately led people to chase after him. Unfortunately, except for Lan Fenghuang, the others were much slower than Lu Nanxing in terms of speed.

"hateful!"

After chasing for more than half an hour, there was no trace of Lu Nanxing in the vast mountains and wilderness, and Lan Fenghuang's face was filled with anger.

With a cold snort, she thought to herself that if she met him again next time, she would definitely kill this little thief!
