I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Chapter 94 Zhanyue
Xie Yuan returned to his room and saw a large dark brown box inside.

The wood grain on the box was natural, the color was deep, the surface was smooth, and it also emitted a faint wood fragrance. Xie Yuan took a sip, leaned over to touch it, and sighed:

"A sandalwood box this big can easily hold a person...give it to someone."

Too trenchant.

The old woodcutter Xie Yuan looked at the wood and couldn't help but touch it twice.

This is a rare tree species that is not even found around the sacred tree land. It is a treasure that he knows about but has never seen before.

If I had cut down this tree, why would I have entered the Iron Cloth Sect? I could just go to one of the four martial arts schools in Yunzhao and pay the money. It would be no problem for me to be accepted as a core member.

But the safety of so much money is a problem... Well, I'll hire Longteng Escort Agency to protect myself first, and they'll need a leader to lead the team.

Xie Yuan breathed a sigh of relief. Just by looking at the box, he was once again shocked by Situ Qin's generosity.

There is no need to look at the contents inside to know that Situ Qin's financial resources are probably not comparable to those of an ordinary wealthy lady.

However, when Xie Yuan looked back and asked around, he found that no one around him knew of any famous Situ family in Yunzhou Prefecture. When he asked about Zhao Xingyang, he just laughed it off and avoided answering. It was unclear whether he really didn't know or had some taboo.

So what kind of things are worthy of such a box?
Xie Yuan was filled with anticipation. He rubbed his hands together, then unlocked the lock and opened the heavy lid of the box.

The sunlight entered the box, reflecting a sharp cold light, which shone on Xie Yuan's face, causing him to squint subconsciously.

He looked inside and saw a huge black axe lying quietly in the box.

The handle of the giant axe is three feet long, somewhere between a short handle and a long handle, and can be held with one or two hands;

The single-sided axe blade is like a half moon, with a hook at the bottom and sharp spikes on the top, which can be used for chopping or stabbing.

The axe blade was about the size of a laundry basin, and was completely black except for the edge which was silver-white. It seemed to be made of a special material, and it was chilling, flashing with a cold light, and very sharp.

This axe looks fierce!

Xie Yuan's eyes lit up, and he reached into the box to pick up the axe, but his hand felt slightly heavy and he had to exert more strength.

Wow, it’s so heavy. If I lift it roughly, it must weigh several dozen kilograms!

When this thing is swung, the sound alone is scary enough.

Xie Yuan was eager to try, so he simply took a deep breath and used three axe moves directly into the air inside the house!

Three cold rays suddenly flashed, and a whirlwind blew up in the room, blowing down the screen and causing the tables and chairs to clang.

The power of the three axes plus the weight of the axe itself made the cramped room gusty with wind.

If you take its cold edge into account...Xie Yuan pulled out a strand of hair, gently placed it on the axe blade, and the hair broke into two pieces.

He made a "tsk" sound, which was really like blowing hair off, and he was slightly shocked in his heart.

What is the silver-white material of the axe blade? It's extremely sharp!

It is impossible to grind a solid and heavy axe into an extremely thin and flat shape like a sword. To achieve this level requires extraordinary craftsmanship.

Xie Yuan swung the axe a few more times, sighed with satisfaction, and then put it aside.

This axe is the best of the best in terms of sharpness, weight and workmanship.

It's the shape, a crescent moon with a hook and a single protruding peak. It can be stabbed, hooked, chopped and cut. It is practical and changeable, revealing ferocity, but also elegance in its ferocity.

Especially considering Xie Yuan's talent, he stood with an axe in his hand, not reckless at all, but with a unique demeanor.

Xie Yuan seriously suspected that Situ Qin had been specially selected.

"Such a murder weapon is a bit beyond expectations."

Xie Yuan shook his head and saw another package in the box. He picked it up and opened it, and saw a piece of origami lying on a blue booklet.

He first put the booklet down, opened the folded paper and saw a few lines of elegant and timeless handwriting inside, which was very beautiful. It was obvious that the author had worked hard on calligraphy.

"After choosing and choosing, I think this 'Moon-Chopping Axe' is the most suitable for you. I also have a copy of the matching 'Moon-Chopping Axe' attached. I hope you will accept it." "Master Xie, have you never been to Yunzhou Prefecture? If you have time, you can come and visit me. I will take you to eat delicious food."

"We have been together for half a day and had an interesting conversation. I hope to see you again."

There is no name in the signature, only a few strokes, forming a simple sketch of a guqin, which is lifelike.

Xie Yuan couldn't help but smile. This girl was indeed interesting and enthusiastic.

Of course, it is also 100% beautiful.

He suppressed the throbbing in his heart, refolded the letter, put it away carefully, and picked up the blue-covered secret book again.

“Moon Slashing Axe…”

Xie Yuan silently recited the name on the cover and turned to the first page.

There is a statue of a man chopping with an axe. The shape of the axe is exactly the same as that of the Moon-cutting Axe. They really are a match. I wonder which axe user left this.

Next to the portrait, there are text annotations, which describe every move and the flow of energy in detail.

Xie Yuan glanced through it, closed the book slightly, and his eyes sparkled.

What a powerful axe technique!
He hadn't read many secret manuals, but he had come into contact with some martial arts from the Tieyi Sect to the Longteng Escort Agency.

At present, the most powerful sword technique Xie Yuan has seen is the third-level sword technique "Running Wolf Sword Technique", which has high killing power, is extremely fast and very easy to use. At the second level of practice, it is considered a very good sword technique.

But compared with the "Moon-Chopping Axe" that we just saw, even in terms of axe techniques, even at a glance, the Wolf-Running Sword Technique is far, far inferior.

There are seven styles in total in "Moon-Chopping Axe". Each style is exquisite and powerful, as can be seen from the description in the picture album.

Xie Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, as if there was a little man in his mind, swinging the giant axe very smoothly, from the first to the seventh move, the moves were coherent, the loops were tight, one axe was more fierce than the other, and the last circular slash could almost cut down the moon.

He opened his eyes and exhaled. This axe technique was very clever, and there was almost no flaw to be found.

Such high-level axe skills would probably be very difficult for others to practice.

[Moon Slashing Axe: Uninitiated: (1/100)]

Xie Yuan chuckled, but he was of course an exception.

The annotations of "Moon-Chopping Axe" are clear and concise. After reading it once, you will have the rules in your mind.

He picked up the Moon-climbing axe again and practiced it a few times in the room, thinking about the key points of this axe technique.

"Don't use too much force when you start, and don't lead the opponent with the axe. Use 30% of your strength and keep 70% of your hand. Cut horizontally and vertically, and use sharp thorns to hook back... With heavy weapons, you must suppress continuously and accumulate strength until the end, and cut the moon with one blow..."

Xie Yuan swung the axe on the spot, his eyes gradually becoming brighter and brighter. He couldn't help but pick up the axe and go outside the yard to practice a set.

From the first form to the seventh form, even though he was still a little clumsy at first, Xie Yuan's momentum continued to rise until it reached the peak.

He shouted loudly and slashed with a circular motion. An arc of cold light flashed in the courtyard. With an unstoppable momentum, it almost split everything in front of it, even chopped down the moon in the sky!

Nice axe technique, nice axe!
Xie Yuan slammed the axe to the ground, stood with his hands on his hips, breathing slightly, and was very excited.

If he had this weapon and skills before going to Yulin, Xie Yuan could have taken on all the twenty bandits by himself and chopped them all down with just a few axes!

He was happy to have obtained the weapon and the skills, but he couldn't help hesitating when he thought that the quality of these two things was much higher than he had expected.

But after thinking for a while, Xie Yuan exhaled and thought:

"Well, since you have accepted such a kind gesture, there is no need to be coy. Just make a note of it and report back sooner or later."

After completing a set of axe techniques, Xie Yuan felt that he had consumed a lot of energy. Apart from the fact that he was not familiar with the technique, it was also of a very high grade, which consumed a lot of energy.

Of course, one must practice the new fighting style, but one's cultivation must also be improved as quickly as possible to match it; besides, the Golden Bell Cover is very useful and requires more practice.

Xie Yuan touched his chin. He just happened to have two B-level merits left. He had to see what treasures the escort agency had and make good use of them.
