The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 154 Let’s All Go to the Martial Arts Tea Party

Ling Ruohan seemed to understand something, and broke out in a cold sweat. He hurriedly thanked her, "Thank you very much."

Fortunately, he had just established the principle of only striking once at a time. If he had fallen too deeply into the trap like in the original book, he would have hardly achieved anything in his life.

Looking at Ling Ruohan who listened to his words, Gu Yuan suddenly had an idea, "The Southern Domain Group holds a martial arts tea party every two years. I remember that some people from your Eastern Domain Group will also participate. If you are interested, you can go and have a look. I believe you will not be disappointed."

"The Southern Domain Group's martial arts tea party? I see. I'll go then."

Ling Ruohan nodded. He had heard about the enlightenment tea party of the Southern Domain Group in the past, but because there were not many masters in the Southern Domain Group, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Now that a genius like Gu Yuan has appeared, he naturally has to go and take a look.

"The same goes for all of you. This martial arts tea party should have ended. If you are interested, you can go to the martial arts tea party of the younger generation of the Southern Territory Group in two years."

Under the influence of his true energy, Gu Yuan's voice quickly spread throughout the entire arena. There was nothing he could do about it. It was because the Southern Domain Group's martial arts tea party was not impressive enough.

If it was still the same as in the original book, then apart from Ye Chen and Chu Zhongtian who possessed the Gangling Body, he really wouldn't have much interest in this enlightenment tea party.

After all, you need to add some ingredients.

"I don't think I've ever heard of the Southern Region Martial Arts Tea Party?"

"Who cares? Even a genius like Gu Yuan will participate. I'm sure he won't disappoint us."

Most of the young generation present had never heard of a martial arts tea party.

After all, the Southern Domain Group has always been the weakest representative in the eyes of the world, and very few people pay attention to it.

But with a genius like Gu Yuan participating, the quality will definitely not be too bad.

Gu Yuan saw that his words had taken effect, so he didn't say anything more.

“good good”

Xie Zhiqiu clapped his hands, stood up, and looked at Gu Yuan with a smile.

But anyone could see that Xie Zhiqiu's anger had reached its peak at this moment.

Gu Yuan first defeated the two young giants of their Eastern Domain Group in a row, scaring Blood Hand Tang Jie so much that he dared not fight, and then he promoted the so-called martial arts tea party of the Southern Domain Group here, simply not taking him, the leader of the young generation of the Eastern Domain Group, seriously.

"Your skills are very good. Among the young generation I know, there are definitely no more than three people like you. You are worthy of being a person whose talent is comparable to that of Dugu Jue and Tan Tai Ming Yue. However, no matter how good your skills are, they must be based on your own strength. If the foundation is not strong enough, the so-called skills are just juggling."

Upon hearing this, Cui Yinghao and Ling Luohan both looked unhappy.

Because they all play with skills, but they all lose to Gu Yuan in this aspect.

Although they knew that Xie Zhiqiu's strength could not be defeated by just skills.

Gu Yuan raised his eyes, "But if you don't have skills, no matter how strong you are, you are just a reckless man at best."

Indeed, the basic strength he just showed was at most comparable to Cui Yinghao and Ling Luohan, and he only used the real person-level sword intent, but since the opponent looked down on skills, let him be defeated by skills. (ps: Some people thought that the master-level sword intent was too abrupt, so it was changed to the quasi-grandmaster level. Of course, the sword intent will be improved later.)
"Humph, today you have swept away so many geniuses in my Eastern Region. If I let you go, I, the Eastern Demon Xie Zhiqiu, as the leader of the younger generation of the Eastern Region, will become a joke. So you must lose today."

Xie Zhiqiu moved lightly and appeared in front of Gu Yuan in an instant. An invisible force burst out from his body and enveloped Gu Yuan.

"It's not shameful to lose to Gu's sword."

With her half-tied high ponytail and the hem of her dress fluttering in the wind, Gu Yuan ignored Xie Zhiqiu's aura.

"Do you still think so now?"

Xie Zhiqiu was filled with black and white light. Invisibly, everyone on the arena seemed to see an illusory figure on him. Xie Zhiqiu clenched the five fingers of his right hand and punched out in the air. The black fist energy combined into a huge skull, which slammed into Gu Yuan's face. When the skull was halfway, its big mouth opened and a strange howling sound came out. The miserable sound waves made people dazed and unable to concentrate.

"Demon Soul!"

The spectators exclaimed in surprise.

"So he has taken this step as well?"

Ling Luohan's eyes were solemn. It was said that swordsmen had sword intent and knifemen had knife intent. Among many warriors, some stood out from the crowd and overshadowed the brilliance of others. However, everything had a balance. When anyone entered the Spiritual Sea Realm, they would condense their own martial soul. The so-called martial soul was the embodiment of the will of martial arts, and the sword intent was the will of swordsmanship. It was obvious that the will of swordsmanship and the martial soul were not equal. When the swordsman raised the will of swordsmanship to the perfect state and immediately broke through to the Spiritual Sea Realm, the will of swordsmanship would transform into the sword soul, and the sword soul and the martial soul would be equal.

In other words, if one wants to become a powerful person in the Spirit Sea Realm, one must have sufficient martial arts will or sword will. Normally, the martial arts will is completely suppressed by the sword will because it is scattered. When the martial arts will is condensed, it becomes the martial soul.

The martial soul cannot compare to the sword soul in terms of attack power, but the martial soul can not only increase the attack power, but also the defense, which is something the sword soul cannot match.

Sword soul is the embodiment of attack power and it has never changed. Correspondingly, no matter whether it is below the Spirit Sea Realm or above the Spirit Sea Realm, the swordsman is also the representative of attack power, but the defense is relatively weak. There are gains and losses, and the swordsman has always been an extreme existence.

The Demon Soul is a type of Martial Soul, which is equal to the Evil Soul and is equivalent to the attribute Sword Soul in the Sword Soul.

Although Xie Zhiqiu does not have the soul talent like Gu Yuan, and he comprehended a new attribute of sword intent, and raised the sword intent to the real person level before condensing the sword soul, but with the magic soul which is one level higher than the martial soul, he can also exert a level of martial arts will that is no less than the real person level.

In addition to his own strength, if Gu Yuan did not hide his strength, his chances of winning would undoubtedly be very slim relying solely on skills.

However, Ling Luohan could vaguely sense that Gu Yuan was not a pure swordsman, but rather a combination of magic and swordsmanship. The evil sword intent he had condensed seemed to be somewhat incompatible with himself, more like a transitional product.

Therefore, I don’t think Xie Zhiqiu can be sure of victory.

as predicted!

The next moment, something surprising happened again.

Facing Xie Zhiqiu's domineering demonic soul, Gu Yuan's gaze suddenly became deep, his brows bulged slightly, and he actually emitted a radiance that almost did not exist in this world.

hum!
The black and white tones faded away and were replaced by scarlet, and an invisible but tangible sword intent rose into the sky. What was extremely terrifying was that although the sword intent this time could not be seen and could only be felt, the range of the sword intent produced a not-so-dense scarlet glow.
