Chapter 8 Winning the First Prize
Chu Zhiting slowly came to Chu Mingxuan's side, as if he was facing a formidable enemy, and drew his sword from its sheath and said, "Fourth brother, please teach me."

Seeing him being so cautious, Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Ninth brother, please!"

The Di Yuan Jue is running.

The Yongquan points on both feet are like two whale mouths, absorbing the vital energy of the earth.

The first level of Di Yuan Jue replenishes internal energy, and the route of Di Yuan directly transforming into internal energy is the shortest and fastest.

The earth's vital energy rose straight up to Dantian along the Yongquan point, filling the empty Dantian in almost the blink of an eye.

If one is a master in the innate realm, in order to replenish the true qi, he needs to perform the second level of the Earth Yuan Jue. The route of converting the earth element into true qi is more complicated.

The Great Avalanche Sword Technique is to condense all the cultivation in the body into a sword, which is fast and fierce, but after one sword, the thief is gone and has no strength to strike again.

The Di Yuan Jue makes up for the fatal weakness of the Great Avalanche Sword Jue.

"Fourth brother, come first!" Chu Zhiting stared at Chu Zhiyuan's shoulders, swung his sword and said in a deep voice.

When the sword moves, the shoulder moves first.

This is the key to dealing with fast swords.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "I am used to striking back."

Chu Zhiting stared at his shoulders solemnly: "Fourth brother, please go first!"

He was unable to see the sword clearly just now, and was filled with fear in his heart. How could he dodge or counterattack if he couldn't even see the sword clearly?

"Okay, look at the sword." Chu Zhiyuan said with a smile.

He moved his right hand.

"boom!"

"Cough cough cough..."

Chu Zhiting bent over, leaning on his sword, and started coughing violently while covering his chest.

Everyone's eyes widened even more.

This time they saw it clearly, the sword was indeed thrust out and then retracted, as fast as a twitch.

"Hey, this is weird!" Chu Mingxuan blurted out.

He turned his head and looked at the others: "Did you see it clearly? Did you see the fourth brother's sword clearly?"

Everyone nodded.

"Ninth brother, is everything ok?"

Chu Zhiyuan looked at Chu Zhiting with concern and said apologetically, "Is it too heavy?"

This sword has become much lighter.

But if you want to be fast, you have to rush out quickly, and it is not easy to stop.

Under everyone's gaze, Chu Zhiting's coughing gradually stopped and he slowly straightened up. He looked at Chu Zhiyuan in confusion, and his eyes finally fell on his wooden sword: "Fourth brother, your swordsmanship..."

"I come!"

Chu Zhichuan took a step forward and said in a deep voice.

He was tall and straight, like a jade tree standing in the wind, with a handsome face that was cold and narrow eyes that were filled with solemnity.

Originally, I didn't take Chu Zhiyuan seriously.

He thought that Chu Qingfeng favored him because he loved his wife and his family. It was said that the ban on Prince Qing's mansion was lifted because of Chu Qingfeng's plea.

In the morning, he saw Chu Zhiyuan and Chu Zhiting talking together, but he did not join them. First, he did not want to be distracted from practicing. Second, he felt that Chu Zhiyuan, with such a gentle temperament, would definitely not be able to practice martial arts well. He was not ruthless enough, not focused enough, and was destined not to become a top master.

The reason why he has reached his current level of cultivation must be because he is trapped in the palace and cannot come out. He cannot have fun, feast and have fun like others. In the depressing environment, he can only practice martial arts to pass the time.

If it were me, I would have already reached the innate level under such circumstances.

"Tenth brother, be careful!"

"Brother Ten, please don't lose again!"

……

Everyone shouted.

Among the twelve people, the three of them have the strongest cultivation. I may not be defeated in a fight with them, but I definitely cannot defeat them with one move.

This is the way of the dragon.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Tenth brother, please."

Chu Zhichuan asked coldly: "What kind of sword is this?"

"Great Avalanche Sword Technique."

"...It turns out to be the Great Avalanche Sword Technique." Chu Zhichuan thought for a moment and nodded slowly.

No wonder it's so fast.

Of course he remembered the sword techniques of the Great Snow Mountain Sect, one of the six ancient sects.

The Great Avalanche Sword Technique possesses top-notch lethality but also has fatal flaws. It is a desperate and extreme killing skill.

If you can't kill the enemy with one move, you will be at the mercy of others. A sword can decide life or death.

One sword strike wiped out the thief. Being able to strike twice is considered a skill. It is estimated that he cannot strike the third sword in a short time. He is probably bluffing, or even buying time to recover.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "Please——!"

We can’t give them a chance to breathe, the sooner we act the better!

"please!"

Chu Zhiyuan looked calm and grinned secretly.

My right hand and body feel numb and sore.

The Great Avalanche Sword Technique condensed all of his cultivation and struck out in one strike, which put too much pressure on the meridians. At this moment, the meridians in his entire body and right arm were shaking.

There is a price to pay for establishing authority.

If he can't suppress Chu Zhichuan, all his efforts will be wasted.

So you must hold on to this sword.

"Swish!" Chu Zhichuan thrust out with a sword.

"Cough cough cough..."

Chu Zhichuan's sword weakened and he covered his chest and coughed violently.

This time, everyone stared at Chu Zhiyuan's right hand and the hilt of the sword, watching him stab casually but arrive first and accurately pierce Chu Zhichuan's chest above the center.

Chu Zhiyuan suppressed the trembling of his right hand and turned to look at the others.

Everyone avoided his gaze. Chu Qingfeng smiled.

Chu Zhiyuan smiled: "Who's next?"

Chu Qingfeng said, "We've fought three rounds in a row, let's take a break. Others, don't just stand there, find someone to fight."

Chu Mingxuan had completely recovered by now: "Uncle Thirteen, forget it, why do we need to compete again? My sword belongs to Old Four!"

He turned his head and looked at everyone: "Who is still unconvinced and wants to compete with the fourth brother?"

Everyone was silent.

I didn’t see it clearly the first time, but I saw it clearly the second and third time. After putting myself in his shoes, I came to a clear conclusion: it can’t be stopped.

If you can't block this sword, it's useless no matter what you say.

It will be over with one sword. There will be no gain from competing with him, and it will only make you depressed. There is no need to ask for trouble. It is better to just admit defeat.

Chu Mingxuan said: "Old Four, I will give you the sword tomorrow."

Chu Zhiyuan clasped his fists and said, "Thank you, Uncle Eighteen."

They shook their heads helplessly.

Chu Zhichuan's handsome face became more and more indifferent, and he secretly made up his mind to go back and practice more.

The Great Avalanche Sword Technique is not invincible, there must be a way to break it.

"Don't be so proud, Old Four. You may not be the first next time. No one in our Mingwu Palace has been the first for two consecutive years," he snorted, then clasped his fists and said, "Uncle Thirteen, we are leaving."

Chu Qingfeng waved his hand.

Everyone clasped their fists towards Chu Qingfeng, and before leaving, they all looked at Chu Zhiyuan, looking at him deeply to remember him.

After everyone left, Chu Qingfeng looked at Chu Zhiyuan's right hand and asked, "Aren't you going back to rest?"

Chu Zhiyuan said: "I want to read for a while."

"Just be brave."

Chu Qingfeng shook his head and walked away with his hands behind his back.

Chu Zhiyuan was the only one left in the huge Mingwu Hall.

He looked down at his trembling right hand and shook his head secretly.

The Di Yuan Jue alone is not enough. The body cannot withstand the continuous use of the Great Avalanche Sword Jue. The Dragon Transformation Jue must be practiced quickly.

The internal energy began to flow, and after passing through more than twenty acupuncture points, it turned into a trace of coolness and entered the twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians.

Wherever this cool air passes, the meridians are quickly moistened like dry and cracked land encountering sweet rain, and the effect is immediate.

He stood motionless on the martial arts training ground of Mingwu Hall until half an hour later, when he opened his eyes with a smile in his eyes.

The Dragon Transformation Art is indeed mysterious. After half an hour, the meridians that were on the verge of collapse not only recovered, but also became much better than before.

He estimated that he could withstand five swords of the Great Avalanche Sword Technique.

From three swords to five swords, the strength almost doubled.

Although the Dragon Transformation Art is mysterious, it is also because it is a process of destruction followed by creation.

He accidentally found a shortcut to practice the Dragon Transformation Technique.

……

In the evening, when the palace gate was about to be locked, Chu Zhiyuan left Mingwu Hall.

As he walked slowly with his hands behind his back, his heart was filled with joy.

It was another day full of harvest and extremely fulfilling.

Not only did his martial arts skills improve by leaps and bounds.

The progress of the Dragon Transformation Technique was also extremely fast.

I found a shortcut to practice the Dragon Transformation Art. I would perform the Great Avalanche Sword Art a few times first, and then practice the Dragon Transformation Art when I felt sore all over.

After practicing for an afternoon, I can already support ten swords.

After mastering the first level of the Dragon Transformation Technique, you can then practice the Air Cleansing Technique, and then the Dragon Binding Rope. The latter two can be mastered quickly.

I originally thought that it would take a long time to practice the Dragon Transformation Technique, but now I have found a shortcut.

The first level of the Dragon Transformation Art is to train the meridians, the second level is to train the orifices, the third level is to train the bones, the fourth level is to train the marrow, the fifth level is to train the blood, the sixth level is to train the membranes, the seventh level is to train the tendons, the eighth level is to train the flesh, and the ninth level is to train the skin.

Unlike other body-building techniques which proceed from the outside to the inside, this method is from the inside to the outside.

It is said that if one reaches the ninth level, one can transform into a real dragon, have infinite power, and even prolong one's life.

According to the records of the Subduing Dragon Sect, in the Sect's ten thousand year heritage, there were three people who had practiced to perfection and had a lifespan of five hundred years, which was longer than that of a grand master.

When I walked out of Nangong Gate, I saw Zou Fang waiting outside.

Guo Chi then brought eight innate masters over.

Chu Zhiyuan walked over and asked: "How is it going with Manager Feng?"

Zou Fang is like his shadow, a true confidant, his eyes and ears, and is well-informed.

Today he was not allowed to stay outside Mingwu Palace, but went out to gather information.

Zou Fang whispered, "We have found the enemy's lair and are keeping watch."

"Ah."

"But..." Zou Fang said softly.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Just say it!"

Zou Fang lowered her voice even more: "I found out that one of the three people is from the Zhenwu Division."

Chu Zhiyuan laughed: "Haha, the Zhenwu Division's hands are really long enough."

The City Guard and the Zhenwu Division are different government offices, but the Zhenwu Division is overreaching by placing people in the City Guard.

But who made the Zhenwu Division the emperor's minions? Even if the city guards knew about it, they probably wouldn't dare to say anything.

Zou Fang remained silent.

"Just pretend you don't know."

"Yes." Zou Fang agreed.

Chu Zhiyuan said: "Find out the origin of the sword that Uncle Eighteen recently obtained."

"Yes." Zou Fang agreed softly.
