I'm only one year old, what the hell is the counterattack system?

Chapter 66: Nine-turn Xuan Gang Jue (First Order)

The next day.

Chen Yi finished washing up earlier than usual, and came to the room where Ning Xue lived and knocked on the door.

"Senior Sister, please teach me the Jianfeng Mountain inheritance technique today."

Not long after, Ning Xue brought him to a Taoist temple deep in Jianfeng Mountain that looked a bit dilapidated.

Chen Yi looked around.

Inside this Taoist temple, which was not much bigger than his martial arts arena, the brick and stone floor was uneven, with a few weeds growing in the gaps.

Apart from the main hall, there was only a thatched hut on one side of the courtyard. The door was closed and padlocked, and it seemed that no one had lived there for a long time.

"Senior sister, where is this?"

"The master's residence."

Ning Xue came to the main hall door and waved at him, "Don't go near that hut, be careful of being hurt by the sword."

Sword intent?

Chen Yi's heart moved slightly, and he summoned a subtle sword intent to appear before his eyes, and looked at the thatched hut again.

The next moment, a sword intent that seemed to cover the sky and the sun appeared in front of him.

The terrifying power made his hair stand on end instantly. He subconsciously dodged and dispersed the sword intent in front of him.

"what is that!?"

Ning Xue was stunned when she noticed his actions.

"Junior brother, can you see the sword intent on the hut?"

"Well," Chen Yi hesitated, but did not deny it. He then asked, "Senior Sister, was that hut left by Master?"

Hearing his answer, Ning Xue looked at him with an inexplicably complicated look.

Sword intent...

I'm afraid Junior Brother Chen is not far from reaching the highest level of swordsmanship.

"That's right. Master has arranged some measures here to prevent outsiders from breaking in."

"Not only that thatched house, everything you see in the yard contains the Master's sword intent."

Chen Yi recalled the sword intent that seemed to cover the sky and the sun, and thought: "Then the master's sword realm should be very high, right?"

"I don't know either. Master never told me."

Ning Xue shook her head, suppressed the complicated feelings in her heart, and stepped into the main hall.

Chen Yi looked at the hut again.

I’m afraid that the swordsmanship level of that master, whom I’ve never met, Li Qingzhou has far surpassed the realm of great success.

It seems that he still underestimated the people in the sect!

The main hall of this small Taoist temple appears much cleaner than the shabby exterior, but the interior layout gives people a heavy feeling of the passage of time.

Especially the ink painting hanging opposite the door, the paper is slightly yellowed and a corner of the lower left corner is worn off.

The painting shows the back of a woman with a long sword hanging from her waist, standing proudly on the top of a mountain.

In front of her, or rather in the distance, there were several demons with outlines.

The signature of the painting happened to be on a worn corner, with only two vigorous words vaguely visible - Fu Mo.

Chen Yi took a few more glances and his gaze fell on the altar below.

Behind the incense burner is a tablet with cinnabar as the base and gold lacquer as the ink, with the four characters "Sword Immortal Mu Qing" written on it.

Is this the founder of Jianfeng Mountain, Mu Qing, whom Senior Sister Ning mentioned earlier?

It looks like...

Chen Yi suppressed the urge to use sword power to investigate.

After the scene in the thatched cottage, he no longer underestimated the sword-fighting heritage on Jianfeng Mountain.

There is no guarantee that this painting does not contain the sword intent of that female sword fairy.

Forget it, let’s keep it simple.

Chen Yi bowed respectfully to the portrait.

Please bless me, ancestor, and bring me good luck!

While Chen Yi was praying, Ning Xue had already taken out two ancient scrolls from the brocade box under the altar.

Then she bowed three times to the portrait, then turned to look at Chen Yi and said:

"There are two volumes of unique skills passed down from my Sword Dao Peak, one is the Nine Revolutions Mysterious Gang Technique, and the other is the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique."

"All true disciples can choose one of them to practice."

Chen Yi looked at the scroll in her hand. The bamboo strips were as green as jade and were wrapped with gold threads. They looked simple and precious.

"Senior Sister, what is the difference between these two techniques?"

Ning Xue pointed to the cushion in front of the altar and motioned for them to sit down.

Then he talked about the difference between the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Art and the Great Demon Subduing Art.

"The Nine-Transformation Mysterious Gang Technique was created by the founder after he comprehended the Great Void Dao. It combines the four methods of Qian, Kun, Zhen, and Gen into one. When one has practiced it to a high level, one can transform the true essence in the body into Mysterious Gang Qi."

"This kind of energy can not only protect itself, but also has extremely strong destructive power due to the integration of thunder and lightning techniques."

Chen Yi thought to himself that this was indeed a method of improving one's overall skills.

As for the Eight Taixu Methods mentioned by Ning Xue, he also had a deep understanding of them.

Speaking of the source, it was still the sect leader’s daughter Xiao Xuanzhen, and what she practiced was the Eight Methods of Taixu.

Although Xiao Xuan really had not mastered the Eight Methods of Taixu, Chen Yi could imagine the power that would be displayed when the eight methods were mastered and combined into one.

This can be seen from the power of the five true essence fires when Xiao Xuanzhen forcibly integrated the five methods that day.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ning Xue continued to introduce: "The origin of the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique is unknown. Even Master doesn't know. We only know that it was a trophy obtained by the ancestor on a battlefield."

"As its name suggests, this technique has the power to restrain demons and drive away evil spirits. It is somewhat similar to the inheritance of the Pure Yang lineage on Shiyan Mountain."

Specifically used to kill demons?
Chen Yi looked at the two volumes of exercises in her hand, thought for a moment, and asked, "Senior Sister, what is your suggestion?"

He had killed countless monsters in the realm of swordsmanship he had attained, and knew that swordsmanship alone was enough to defeat the enemy.

To him, or to other sword practitioners, the martial arts technique is just icing on the cake.

“This one.”

Ning Xue handed over the scroll in her right hand without hesitation and said, "My master and I both practice the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique."

Chen Yi was slightly surprised, "Master too?"

Judging from his previous sword skills that seemed to cover the sky and the sun, he thought Li Qingzhou would be a pure sword practitioner.

I didn't expect that he would choose a method to restrain demons.

"Yes."

Ning Xue nodded and pushed the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique forward.

"Master said that demons and evil spirits have strange abilities. Although swords can kill them, we must also be on guard."

"However, while the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique has this convenience, it also has obvious flaws."

Ning Xue paused and said, "After reaching the fifth level of Baodan, you will have fewer tricks when fighting with others."

“No matter it is the martial arts, the matching Tai Shang Fu Mo Sword Technique, or the Fu Mo Seal, Qing Shi Seal, Fu Mo Formation, etc., they are all only effective against demons.” Hearing this, Chen Yi had a clear understanding of the two sets of martial arts.

After thinking for a moment, he pushed back the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique and said with a smile: "Senior Sister, I want to choose the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Technique."

When dealing with demons and evil spirits, even without the protection of the Supreme Demon Subduing Technique, he still has the confidence that he can kill them with just swordsmanship.

This is because his sword intent is "killing", a domineering sword intent with supreme power.

Moreover, during that hundred years of experience fighting against demons, he had already understood his own swordsmanship.

Two of them are most important.

First, swordsmanship does not need to be fancy or complicated. It only needs to be fast, accurate, and ruthless, and use the sharp sword force to strike at the monster's weak points.

The second is the "killing" sword intent, which poses no less threat to demons and evil spirits than Chunyang.

Even during that experience, Chen Yi killed them many times until they were frightened and afraid.

Therefore, the Supreme Demon Subduing Art is like a piece of chicken ribs to him, so it is better to choose to upgrade the more comprehensive Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Art.

In this way, when his realm is elevated and his swordsmanship is further improved, no matter whether he is against a human enemy or a demon, he can defeat them with one sword.

"Decided?"

"Ah."

After Ning Xue got Chen Yi's affirmative answer, she put away the Supreme Demon Subduing Art and handed over the scroll of Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue.

"You can't take this technique out of this Taoist temple. You should memorize the contents here."

"I don't understand, um..."

Seeing her hesitation, Chen Yi felt a chill in his heart.

isn't it?
You said you would teach me some martial arts skills. Are you specifically referring to the Supreme Demon Subduing Skill?
Unfortunately.

Unfortunately, Chen Yi guessed the truth.

Ning Xue had never learned the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue and knew very little about its true meaning.

Her advice was that after learning the techniques, one should either wait for the senior sister to return to the mountain, or seek the Taixu Dao lineage, and try not to practice blindly on one's own.

Therefore, Chen Yi knew that the senior sister Zhan Hongxiu of Jianfeng Mountain also practiced the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue.

Moreover, her skills had already been perfected, and her cultivation had even reached the fourth level of spiritual enlightenment.

As for what Ning Xue said about asking for help from the Taixu Taoist lineage, the first person Chen Yi thought of was the ancient Tiangang Taoist lineage.

The deputy leader who just returned to the sect should be able to provide him with some help.

But that can only be done after he has mastered the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue.

And getting started was not too difficult for Chen Yi.

At least he could easily understand the introductory chapter of the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Art, and practiced the new technique in the next few days.

In the first few days, he could clearly feel the changes in the true energy in his body.

It was as if a pair of invisible hammers were constantly tempering his true essence, eliminating the impurities within it, making it more condensed and purer.

Then, as the condensed true energy circulated along the meridians of the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue, a hint of something that was difficult to explain gradually appeared.

It is like a stream when the snow melts in early spring, not turbulent but full of vitality.

After one cycle of circulation, there will be no obvious change. After two cycles, the speed of the true energy circulation will increase significantly, and will reach the maximum after three cycles.

Four weeks...

As Chen Yi became more proficient in the introductory chapter of the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue, his true energy became increasingly thicker and sharper.

It was not until more than ten days later that he suddenly discovered a hint of light blue fluorescence in his dantian, and realized that he had mastered the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Technique.

As a result, his cultivation level also reached the middle stage of the eighth level Na Yuan realm.

Chen Yi didn't bother to continue practicing and summoned the panel to check.

【Name: Chen Yi】

【Age: 33】

[Cultivation: Eighth-level Na Yuan realm (middle stage)]

[Talent: Late bloomer - the older the bone age, the faster the cultivation speed. ]

[Basic Kungfu: Perfection - Drops of water become a river, and then a great thing can be achieved]

[Nine Transformations of Mysterious Gang Technique: Getting Started - Transforming True Essence into Gang Qi]

[Kendo: Great Accomplishment - After a hundred years of fighting, the sword spirit has reached its purest state. With one strike of the sword, thousands of bones wither! ]

【Counterattack Points: 5/100】

"The speed of this Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue is indeed incomparable to the basic exercises."

While Chen Yi was delighted, he did not forget to test it.

The internal Qi was stimulated and condensed on the palm of the hand, and a faint fluorescence was visible to the naked eye.

He casually slapped a huge rock next to the martial arts field, and his palm sank silently, leaving a deep palm print.

The rock did not make him feel any resistance at all.

"This power is so... so weak."

Chen Yi's smile disappeared and he curled his lips.

The Xuan Gang Qi transformed from true essence seems powerful, but compared with the sharp sword energy, its power is only average.

Not to mention the "killing" sword intent he possessed.

However, after many attempts, the Xuan Gang Qi is not so useless.

At least when it is in operation, the improvement in the body's defense is more than five times stronger than the protection of true energy.

This is in line with what Ning Xue said when she introduced it, "protecting oneself", which gave Chen Yi some comfort.

……

During the more than ten days that Chen Yi practiced the Nine Revolutions Profound Gang Jue, the coldness on Jianfeng Mountain became even stronger.

A heavy snowfall in late winter dyed the entire Taixu Taoist Sect a layer of white, which looked very beautiful from afar.

Such weather.

Ning Xue and several other senior brothers and sisters were better off. Relying on their advanced cultivation, they were able to maintain precise sword skills despite the cold wind.

However, Hua Youxiang, Li Mingyue and Lu Youxiang were not talented enough, so not only were they unable to inherit the unique skills of Jianfeng Mountain, their cultivation progress also failed to reach the eighth level of Nayuan realm.

Especially difficult.

In desperation, Chen Yi had to take them to build a spacious wooden house outside the wing room, which was specifically used for practicing swordsmanship.

Looking at the figures of Hua Youxiang and the other two dancing with swords, Chen Yi suddenly realized that this scene seemed familiar.

Thinking back carefully, he finally remembered.

That year Zhou Wanyi was pregnant, and when the eldest son Chen Yuan moved to Fanghua Garden, Xia Wanwan also built a pavilion outside the wing room for them.

The difference is that one is to avoid the cold and the other is to avoid the heat.

"I don't know how the boss is doing now."

However, Chen Yi did not reminisce for too long, as an unexpected letter interrupted his thoughts.

"Tonight at midnight, in the woods at the foot of the mountain, I have something important to report."
