Who said I practiced the exercises incorrectly?

After repelling Lu Hongjing, Ning Yan walked forward.

Walk towards Yang Wannian.

Among the three, although Yang Wannian is a disciple of Qianyan Sect and has the shortest practice time and his realm is slightly lower than Lu Hongjing and Zhou Wuguang, his strength is obviously the strongest among the three.

The most obvious example is that he had traveled the farthest distance in the Jianyi Pass, having almost covered three quarters of the way.

You must know that in the Sword Intent Pass, as you gradually go deeper, the ubiquitous violent sword intent is also rapidly increasing. This is the reason why many warriors stop moving forward.

This also shows the impact of the number of people on the distance traveled.

If there are many people together, they may be suppressed by the sword intent and reach the edge of the sword intent barrier, but if they are alone, they may break into the next level.

Soon, Ning Yan came near Yang Wannian.

He turned his head to look at Ning Yan and frowned slightly:

"Are you going to attack me?"

Ning Yan nodded.

Yang Wannian was surprised:

"But I clearly didn't intend to attack you just now."

"No, it's not that you don't have that plan, but that you don't need to."

Ning Yan replied calmly:

"Because Zhou Wuguang and Lu Hongjing, who are closer to me than you, will obviously take action first.

If they drive me out, or if they are driven out by me, you will get a share of the profits, and you don't have to do it yourself, saving a lot of effort.

And if we both suffer losses, neither of us will be able to do anything to the other, and you can easily repel us and occupy the entire Sword Intent Pass.

No matter from which perspective you look at it, you will be the winner in the end.”

"Is that why you're planning to attack me?"

Ning Yan shook his head:

"Actually, those are all excuses. I just want to occupy the entire Sword Intent Pass. Who said the rule here is that the fewer people there are, the easier it is to pass?
I am confident that I have a trump card, but I don't think I can withstand the extremely terrifying sword intent that will come later. Rather than being stuck in the mud and unable to make a move and waiting for the death, it is better to finish the battle in advance while I still have the advantage. "

"You are so cautious and careful. It seems like your life must be very hard."

Yang Wannian smiled and continued:
“But you are right about one thing. This place is indeed only suitable for one person to come in and explore. If there are too many people, it will inevitably cause some obstacles.

Originally, although I had the advantage of advancing distance, those two people felt that they could not beat me in a one-on-one fight, so they joined forces to fight me, preventing me from taking any action and forcing me to go with them.

Now that you have eliminated them, to express my gratitude, I had planned to let you stay in the Sword Intent Pass for a while longer to gain insights, but since you don't know how to cherish it, there is nothing I can do.

Let this competition end early."

As he spoke, Yang Wannian slowly turned around and raised the sword in his hand.

In an instant, all the hairs on Ning Yan's body stood up.

He reflexively took a few steps to the left and threw out a thunder and fire bomb with his right hand.

The next second, a sharp gust of wind suddenly slashed past his side, and the thunder and fire bomb that was still in the air was instantly chopped into dozens of pieces.

It didn't even have time to detonate before it turned into countless broken fragments that fell down.

Ning Yan looked at Yang Wannian, whose expression remained motionless opposite him, with a slightly solemn look in his eyes.

Although Yang Wannian's realm is slightly lower than Zhou Wuguang and Lu Hongjing, and there is still some distance from the peak of entering the realm, it has to be admitted that his strength does surpass those two.

It is highly likely that this is a genius who has reached the state of strength. His strength cannot be simply calculated based on his own realm.

That is to say, in this sword intent barrier, most of the opponent's strength must be used to resist the violent sword intent that is as fierce as the tide.

If he were to fight in actual combat in the outside world, even if he used a spiritual weapon like the Tushan Seal, he would probably still be defeated on the spot. The gap is really too big.

And the most important thing is that he cannot use the Tushan Seal at all now.

After all, once that thing is used in a public place, people might recognize it, and then the Lingzhi Sect's cover might be exposed.

However, if we put aside the spiritual weapon and rely purely on our own strength, it would not be an easy task to defeat it.

There was no way to use the tactics of using thunder and fire bombs and poison to force it out like before.

Not to mention that the snake venom had been almost consumed, the most crucial thing was that the thunder and fire bombs could not reach him at all because the opponent's sword was too fast.

In a flash, Yang Wannian attacked again. The long sword in his hand was like a blooming flower. Countless dazzling sword lights rushed towards him fiercely, one wave faster than the other. Ning Yan only had time to barely resist with the dark bronze long sword, and the whole person was forced to retreat continuously.

During the battle, Ning Yan was also using the Eye of Insight to observe the opponent's sword moves.

Because of the difference in realm, he couldn't see through the flow of energy in the opponent's body, and could only roughly see the movements of his sword moves.

If there are only one or two tricks, they are of no use. But if there are more tricks, you can naturally summarize the corresponding rules.

But it is not enough to just master part of the rules, because his realm is lower, his attack speed and strength are not as good as the opponent, and he has no way to apply this rule.

But Ning Yan soon came up with a new idea - since the opponent's strength was too strong, why not bring him to the same level as himself and defeat him with the tricks he was good at?

Ning Yan's steps changed instantly. He no longer retreated aimlessly, but instead twisted and turned to rush into the depths of the Sword Intent Pass.

Those terrifying sword intentions were indeed dangerous to him, but they were even more dangerous to people like Yang Wannian.

With the help of the mysterious stone tablet with the word "Yu", perhaps he would have to use one part of his strength to resist the sword intent, so Yang Wannian would probably have to use ten parts of his strength.

With each back and forth, let alone suppressing the opponent's strength to the same level as one's own, it is possible to even suppress it to the level of the fifth sword.

Ning Yan retreated all the way towards the depths of the Sword Intent Pass. His condition was getting worse and worse, and it seemed that he would collapse at any time.

Yang Wannian was oppressed by the sword intent all around him, and his face looked a little bad. However, when he saw Ning Yan's extremely embarrassed look, he smiled instead:
"How unlucky! Why did you even think of retreating inside?"

"Since you've already retired, don't come out again!"

As he spoke, he slashed at Ning Yan with his sword.

This sword was still very fast, but it was far inferior to the previous fierce and swift sword moves.

At this time, Ning Yan, who had been preparing for a long time, finally showed his fangs. He slashed down with his backhand, and the violent force of the knife actually cut his sword back directly.

Followed by another knife.

Another knife.

With seventeen consecutive strikes, Yang Wannian was chopped away.

He was in mid-air, and his face suddenly changed drastically.

He struggled to fall, but when he touched the ground he suddenly let out a scream, and dark red blood flowed out of all his orifices.

Yang Wannian held the sword and slowly stood up.

He glanced at Ning Yan, then looked at the Jianxin Pass which was within reach. He struggled to take a step forward, and then another step, but finally fell to the ground with a bang, at the edge of the threshold closest to Jianxin Pass.

Seeing this scene, the warriors outside were silent for a while and couldn't recover for a long time.

Dead? The chief disciple of Qianyan Sect died just like that?

Many warriors found it unbelievable for a moment, as if they were dreaming.

With Yang Wannian's talent, given time, he might be able to step into the realm of silk power and become the new leader of Qianyan Sect.

But no one had ever thought that a person of such an important position and outstanding qualifications as him would die here so easily.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he was actually killed by the ferocious sword intent in the Sword Intent Pass, but it was undoubtedly Ning Yan on the opposite side who put him in such a situation.

It is no exaggeration to say that Ning Yan is the murderer.

It would be fine if Yang Wannian was just an ordinary casual cultivator, but considering his status and position, how could Qianyan Sect not seek revenge after he died here?
Especially the leader of Qianyan Sect, who has always been very protective of his disciples.

If Ning Yan does something like this, he will most likely be hunted down by the entire Qianyan Sect in the future!

Instantly, the entire outside area became agitated.

"How to do how to do?"

Peng Huasheng looked at Bai Xunhei and his face turned pale:
"Brother Ning mistakenly killed Yang Wannian. Qianyan Sect will definitely not let this go!"

Bai Xunhei frowned tightly together.

Now it’s not a matter of betting or not.

Even if he won, he didn't feel happy at all.

After a little thought, he said in a deep voice:

“Brother Ning probably doesn’t know Yang Wannian’s identity. We should inform him right away and ask him to go find the Wanfa Pavilion as soon as possible. However, the Wanfa Pavilion alone is not enough, and we have to let the Jianji Sect make the decision for him.

After all, his fight with Yang Wannian was a fair duel, and he didn't resort to any shady tactics. Although Qianyan Sect was protective of its protégé, they were not unreasonable.

But they have lost a genius disciple, and if he wants to cover this up, he will definitely bleed a little."

"I'm afraid that he won't be able to meet the conditions set by Qianyan Sect."

Peng Huasheng was worried, and then a little angry:
"How did Yang Wannian die? He was the leader of Qianyan Sect after all, and one of the few geniuses in the city who was promoted to the Jin level during the Zhenchuan period. How could he die so easily?"

Bai Xunhei sighed and said no more.

At the same time, Ning Yan, who was completely unaware of the situation in the outside world, did not continue to move forward as outsiders imagined, and headed towards the next checkpoint, Jianxin Pass.

This was not only because the sword intent around him was too fierce, but also affected his mind which was focused on the Yu character stele.

Also, when he just swung those seventeen sword strikes, the medicinal power of the yellow-headed ginseng was further dissolved.

At this moment, he has reached the peak of his anger.

With all the preparations he had made before, he could now advance to the next level anytime and anywhere as long as he wanted.

But advancement in this sword domain is obviously not a good choice.

Because once he is promoted, the difficulty of the trial will increase significantly.

Maybe he could have passed the fourth level, but in the end he was forced to stop at the fourth level because the difficulty of the trial increased.

This is something Ning Yan absolutely cannot tolerate.

Besides, he has more important things to do now.

Ning Yan slowly closed his eyes, letting his mind sink back into the Yu-character stele, and completely gathering his breath.

The next second, he immediately entered the state he was in when he first entered the Sword Intent Gate. Immediately afterwards, a vague enlightenment suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart, and an unprecedented charm washed over his thoughts. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a mysterious scripture:

"Sword of Selfless Reincarnation".

To be honest, Ning Yan almost thought that he would not be able to obtain the rewards of martial arts from this sword domain.

After all, he was holding a knife in his hand, and he used knife skills when fighting with others.

Logically speaking, it is not suitable for the requirements of Kendo inheritance.

But who would have thought that he would be lucky enough to accidentally perceive a sword scripture with the help of the broken consciousness space.

Many of the sword scriptures in the Sword Domain can be comprehended repeatedly.

For example, the "Sword of Selfless Reincarnation" that he realized today, maybe someone else will realize it again after a while.

But Ning Yan felt that it would be difficult for ordinary swordsmen to comprehend this sword manual.

This is not because their understanding of the way of the sword is so low. No matter how low it is, can it be lower than that of him who uses a sword?
It is purely because it is difficult for them to meet the requirements to comprehend the "Sword of Selfless Reincarnation".

This thing requires the consciousness space to be broken before it can be triggered.

Apart from a trial-taker like him who holds a heavy weapon, who else can survive after the consciousness space is shattered?

Yang Wannian is the most obvious example before us.

Back to the technique, the first line of "Sword of Selfless Reincarnation" is -

You are not allowed to practice this technique below the Entering Jin level.

The reason is simple. This technique is based on strength. It cannot be activated without strong strength. Forcibly practicing it will only hurt yourself or even lead to sudden death.

Of course, Ning Yan felt that he could come up with a weakened version based on this technique.

But he was about to be promoted to a higher level, so there was no need to waste this free time.

So he looked directly down.

After browsing through it, Ning Yan found that this sword manual was quite powerful.

Its purpose is just as the name suggests, one is no self, the other is reincarnation.

Selflessness is easy to explain. It is to allow the user to enter a state of selflessness, relying on his own instincts to fight the enemy. In this state, all sword moves will be greatly enhanced, and the speed, strength, sensitivity, etc. of the sword moves will be dramatically improved.

Basically, it is not a problem to fight the enemy across a small realm.

If one's own physical fitness is far superior to others and one is at the level of entering strength, it is not impossible to fight against the silk strength.

As for reincarnation, it is to allow the selfless self, the self that escapes from the body, to merge with the heaven and earth.

To merge into the heaven and earth, to withdraw from the heaven and earth, back and forth, this is reincarnation.

To be honest, Ning Yan felt that this was a bit mysterious, and the description inside was not very clear. The process of integration and the details of separation were not mentioned at all, as if it was the author's mumbling.

But after deep thought, he felt that there seemed to be some truth in it.

"This technique is probably not just for gaining strength."

Ning Yan noticed the blind spot:

"Once you have achieved a breakthrough and are familiar with this sword manual, you can go to the Wanfa Pavilion and find a few more sword manuals to practice with it."

Ning Yan made up his mind to put this sword technique behind him for the time being and prepared to continue to go deeper into the Sword Heart Pass.

However, at this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside. (End of this chapter)
