The First Marquis of Daxuan

Chapter 77: Tempering the tendons (Please read, collect, and vote for the monthly ticket)

Just when Su Mu was getting better at practicing swordsmanship, Luo An Ning finally arrived.

"Tianlong Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method."

She went straight to the point and placed a secret book in front of Su Mu.

“This is the best way to harden my muscles that I can find.

The ultimate level of tendon training is known as dragon tendons, and the large tendons of the human body are comparable to real dragons among monsters.

The Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method, when practiced to perfection, will reach the ultimate state of tendon tempering."

"so smart?"

Su Mu was a little surprised.

He practiced three skin hardening methods at the highest level of skin hardening, and also practiced two flesh hardening methods at the highest level of flesh hardening.

This Tianlong Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method, can one reach the ultimate level with just one technique?
"Don't be too happy too early."

Luo An Ning said seriously, "The more advanced the technique, the higher the requirements for one's qualifications.

If the Tianlong Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method can be practiced to perfection, it can indeed achieve the ultimate level of tendon tempering.

But it is extremely difficult to practice. If ordinary people practice it forcefully, they may even damage their tendons. If I hadn’t seen that you have tempered your skin and flesh to the extreme and your physique is far superior to that of ordinary people, I would not have given you this tendon-hardening method.”

"Even so, you may not be able to practice the Heavenly Dragon Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method to perfection. If you feel it is not suitable, I can change a tendon tempering method for you."

"No, this is it."

Su Mu smiled and said, "I think it is destined to be with me."

"Okay, if you find anything wrong during the practice, you must stop immediately. Otherwise, you will damage your tendons and bones, which will affect your future practice."

Luo Anning reminded him.

Su Mu nodded, Luo Anning was a good girl.

Unfortunately, he was destined to let her down. He could not become a worshiper of the Luo family because he would definitely become the Taiping Commandant or even the Taiping Colonel.

"I want to spar with you."

Just when Su Mu couldn't wait to look through the Tianlong Eight Sounds Tendon Tempering Method, he suddenly heard Luo An Ning's polite voice.

"is this necessary?"

Su Mu raised his head and saw that Luo An Ning was already at the fourth level of Body Tempering and was only one step away from the Blood Exchange Level.

No matter how confident Su Mu was, he didn't think he could beat her.

Su Mu doesn't like to be tortured.

"I will suppress my strength to the second level of body tempering."

Luo Anning said seriously.

"You are no match for me at the second level of Body Tempering."

Su Mu stated calmly.

Luo An Ning thought about it seriously and nodded, "You have reached the extreme level in both skin and flesh tempering, and you can be said to be invincible in the second level of body tempering.

Then I will suppress my strength to the third level of body tempering."

"Miss Luo, there's no need for you to feel superior to me, right? If you really want to spar with me, how about we wait until I reach the fourth level of physical tempering before we do it?"

Su Mu shook his head and refused.

"no."

Luo An Ning explained with a serious expression, "I don't want to bully you, I just want to see how strong you are. If you are strong enough, I want you to go out of the city with me."

Seeing that Su Mu still looked reluctant, she continued, “To practice martial arts, it is not enough to just practice behind closed doors, you must also have enough actual combat experience.

Do you know Peng Li, who is ranked 95th on the wanted list?
I want you to kill him."

"Peng Li?"

Su Mu's heart moved. Isn't this the one who takes the scapegoat?

"Peng Li is a good opponent. If you are strong enough to kill him, not only will it give you another real-life combat experience, but if you can kill Peng Li, the He family will owe you a favor."

Without waiting for Su Mu to ask, Luo An Ning explained the reason seriously, "This favor is useless now, but if you are eliminated by the Taiping Division in the future, you will have fewer constraints when doing things in Wuling City."

Su Mu understood that Luo An Ning was paving the way for his future.

Let the He family owe Su Mu a favor. When Su Mu becomes the Luo family's priest, the He family will have to repay the favor. At that time, whether Su Mu is simply a priest or an official in Wuling City, he will have a lot of conveniences.

Luo Anning is such a good girl. "What is Peng Li's strength?"

Su Mu pondered.

It doesn't matter whether it's a humane thing or not, the main thing is to kill the person and silence him.

He Yuxing's death must be blamed on Peng Li.

"The third level of body tempering."

Luo An Ning said, "But his foundation is far inferior to yours. Even if he is one level higher than you, you may not be able to defeat him.

So I want to test your strength."

Peng Li is a wanted criminal. If you don’t have the strength to deal with him, you’re courting death.

Although Su Mu's skin and flesh tempering had been practiced to the extreme, ordinary tendon tempering might not be his opponent, but he still had to give it a try.

Su Mu pondered for a moment, then nodded slowly, "Then please enlighten me, Miss Luo."

Walking up to Luo An Ning and standing still, Su Mu drew out his long sword and slashed at him casually.

Suddenly, a light rain began to fall from the sky.

Su Mu's seemingly soft knife suddenly wrapped up the raindrops in the sky, turning into a raging wave and surging away.

Clang!
The long sword at Luo An Ning's waist jumped into his hand, and bits of sword light bloomed, like stars in the sky.

In an instant, the swords collided countless times in the air, and the sounds of metal clashing almost overlapped and turned into a long cry.

"I will imitate Peng Li's wind-breaking sword moves, so be careful."

Luo An Ning spoke, and the sword moves in his hand suddenly changed, becoming light and agile in an instant.

Su Mu raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and the power of tempering his flesh burst out.

The Fu Bo sword force, nine layers of waves.

The violent force even dispersed the raindrops from the sky.

“The power is very strong, surpassing Peng Li, but the speed is not enough.

Peng Li is good at the Wind-Breaking Sword Technique, which emphasizes flexibility and versatility.

You can’t defeat him this way.”

Luo An Ning spoke as he made his move.

"So?"

Su Mu just smiled when he heard this, and the momentum of the long sword in his hand suddenly changed.

The originally extremely powerful sword technique instantly turned into something as gentle as silk.

The lingering knife force instantly entangled Luo An Ning's sword.

Luo An Ning just felt like he was trapped in a whirlpool. The more he struggled, the deeper he fell.

It's like a mosquito caught in a spider web. The more it struggles, the more entangled it becomes.

"what?"

A look of surprise appeared in Luo Anning's big eyes.

It’s actually the second level of potential!
She knew that Su Mu had mastered the Fu Bo Sword Style, but she didn't expect that Su Mu could even master the second level of the Style.

Ding!
Before she knew it, the blade had already wrapped around her wrist and was moving towards her neck.

She swung her sword subconsciously, the swords clashed, and Su Mu took two steps back.

"Miss Luo is very powerful, Su Mu is ashamed of himself."

Su Mu stood still and did not continue to attack, but said with a smile.

Luo Anning glanced at the long sword in his hand and said, "I lost."

"I said I would only use the power of the third level of Body Tempering, but I just used my full strength, otherwise I would have died under your sword."

Luo An Ning said seriously, "So I lost. Your strength can kill Peng Li."

She looked at Su Mu, her eyes full of amazement, double power!
Su Mu had actually already mastered the second level of power, and even she had only just touched the threshold of the second level.

What kind of talent is this?
