The First Sword of the Universe

Chapter 22 Sword Fusion
Feng Qingyang is the only remaining disciple of the "Qing" generation in Huashan Sect.

He is over seventy years old, his face is as pale as gold paper, and he looks depressed. He has not smiled since the Huashan Incident more than 20 years ago.

As a Huashan disciple who grew up in Huashan since childhood, even if his body is like duckweed and he wanders around for the second half of his life, when he is old, he still wants to return to his roots and return to Huashan.

However, he couldn't stand Yue Buqun of the Qi Sect, and because the other party was a junior, he didn't want to bother with him, so he built a house to live in a secret canyon deep in the back mountain.

He has been living in seclusion for most of the year, occasionally going out to buy some supplies, or sitting for half a day on the almost uninhabited Siguo Cliff, basking in the warm sun, gazing at the Huashan Main Hall in the distance, recalling past memories, and enjoying the sunset world that a lonely old man should have.

Not long ago, he went to Siguo Cliff again, wanting to bask in the sun there and enjoy the scenery of Mount Huashan. However, he found that his place was occupied by a boy who was practicing in seclusion.

Although he was tall, he had a childish face, looking like a minor. Among the former Huashan disciples, he was still practicing Huashan swordsmanship and building a solid foundation. Why did he come to the Cliff of Repentance to practice? What was he practicing?

That is what you, a young disciple, should do? !

It’s so ridiculous!
If he was still in the sect, he would definitely scold him, “Nonsense!”

Especially when Feng Qingyang saw that the young disciple had actually learned the four sword techniques of "Shu Nu, Yang Wu, Xi Yi, and Yunu" and practiced them together, he sneered.

I feel that after Yue Buqun of Qi Sect took over Huashan Sect, Huashan Sect has become increasingly decadent, and dares to do all kinds of unimaginable things.
The four advanced sword techniques are not only difficult to learn, but also consume a lot of internal strength and brainpower when performing. Under normal circumstances, Huashan disciples will only be taught these after they have a solid foundation and reach adulthood.

Well, you, Yue Buqun, are lawless and act without any rules. You even taught advanced sword techniques to underage disciples ahead of time, and taught four sword techniques together. Even if we count the ancestors of Huashan, there has never been such a "absurd" thing.

"However, the current Huashan is the Huashan of the Qi Sect. What does it have to do with our Sword Sect?"

With a sigh, Feng Qingyang ignored it!

However, in the next few days, he would occasionally go to the Cliff of Repentance to check whether the boy who was "cultivating in seclusion" had left and whether the boy had given up his ridiculous behavior.

As a result, instead of giving up sword practice, he would practice a strange boxing technique every morning.

One can tell at a glance that the movements and footwork are derived from the Huashan swordsmanship, just like a child playing the game of pretending to be a flying bird, full of childish fun.

When Feng Qingyang saw Xu Xingchen's whole body surging with energy after finishing his practice, he immediately realized the subtlety of it.

Since then, a question has arisen in my mind.
Why can that set of childlike boxing techniques stimulate the flow of Qi throughout the body?
What exactly does it do?
As a man of the world, when encountering unknown but seemingly complicated martial arts, no one would not be curious, even someone as old as Feng Qingyang.

But he is a reclusive person and does not want to come into contact with outsiders, especially the Huashan Sect and others.

Therefore, no matter how curious I am, I can only keep it to myself and think about it occasionally when I have nothing to do.

However, since I don't know the main points, when I practice it myself, it always feels mediocre and not quite what it should be.

The most important thing is that he seems to have too much free time!
On the Cliff of Reflection
Ever since the battle with his senior brother Linghu Chong, life has become peaceful.

Time flies. More than two months have passed in the blink of an eye. The weather is getting colder and the north wind is coming more and more frequently.

Master's wife Ning Zhongze asked a senior brother to bring up a cotton coat. Xu Xingchen put it on and felt warm both physically and mentally!

Lady, Yangwu, Xiyi, Jade Girl!
The more he practiced the four sword techniques, the more enlightenment Xu Xingchen gained in his heart.

Except for the Nineteen Styles of Jade Maiden Sword Technique, which has complex and varied sword moves and exquisite sword styles, the other three sword techniques all use the method of controlling the sword with Qi.

The three sword techniques of Lady, Yangwu and Xiyi do not have many variations, but if you use Qi to control the sword, the deeper the internal strength, the faster the sword technique will be and the stronger its power will be.
When a person's internal strength is strong enough, using any of the three sword techniques can easily break the various subtle changes of the Jade Girl Sword Technique, which is a model of great strength and flying.

However, the fact is that there are too few people who can reach that level of internal strength, and it takes too long.

In the early stage, it is no match for the Jade Girl Sword Technique. In the middle stage, it should be able to be on par with it. In the late stage, it will be able to exert its full strength and completely follow the strategic route of the middle and late stages.

After Xu Xingchen finished practicing the four sword techniques, he stood on the edge of the cliff, feeling the cold wind, and thought to himself, "Sword techniques and internal strength, one represents early-stage combat power, the other represents late-stage combat power, both are equally indispensable and equally important, but why do we have to make a distinction between Qi Sect and Sword Sect?"

"I think that the generations of people on Huashan Mountain have nothing better to do than to eat and have nothing to do!"

"Don't you know that once there is a disagreement, even if both sides understand the reason, they will turn a blind eye and a deaf ear, and fall into the vortex of emotional disputes. In the end, no matter who is right or wrong, they will only stand on the same side until one side overwhelms the other, or both sides suffer losses."

"Oh! By the way, they also want to fight for legitimacy."

Thinking of this, Xu Xingchen couldn't help but curse, "It's really unreasonable!"

"Master and Master's Wife were also victims of the Qi Sword Contest, but they also have deep obsessions because of it. It may be difficult to eliminate the harm of the Qi Sword Contest from them."

"However, if my martial arts skills become the best in the world, they will probably listen to what I say." "After all, in this world, people with big fists are always more likely to be convinced!!!"

Thinking of this, Xu Xingchen couldn't help but let out a long roar towards the sky. The sound echoed in the valley and mountains, spreading far away.

Two months was enough time for Xu Xingchen to master the four new sword techniques.

In the days that followed, he also added the Huashan Sword Technique to his practice, and practiced the five sword techniques in succession. Feng Qingyang, who was hiding in the dark, frowned and was extremely surprised: "Did this kid really learn those four sword techniques?"

"How can he have such internal strength?"

".It's really a ghost!"

At the beginning, Xu Xingchen practiced one sword technique and then moved on to the next one, practicing the five sword techniques in rotation in no order.

After ten days or half a month, the five sword techniques began to become integrated into one, just like rice porridge and noodles mixed together, the taste changed immediately.

The previous move was still the Huashan Sword Technique, the next move was connected to the Yangwu Sword Technique, followed by the Xiyi Sword Technique, and then the Lady Sword Technique. The traces of the Jade Girl Sword Technique were also mixed in, appearing and disappearing from time to time.

Within a few days, he could perform these small combos smoothly and naturally.

Feng Qingyang watched this and nodded secretly, thinking: "This kid is finally not like Yue Buqun, a blockhead who can't adapt. He knows the principle of ever-changing moves and doing whatever he wants."

"It's just that this kid's Huashan swordsmanship has an indescribable flavor."

While practicing sword moves, Xu Xingchen did not display the charm of Huashan swordsmanship, so Feng Qingyang did not notice it, which only caused some confusion.

As time went by, Xu Xingchen's "big pot stew" swordsmanship changed again.

Their number is decreasing, sometimes, two or three moves are reduced in a day, and sometimes, only one move is reduced in a few days.

Although the process is slow, it continues unshakably.

Until a heavy snowfall three months later.
The sky was covered with dark clouds, stretching into the endless distance.

Snowflakes as big as goose feathers fell endlessly, and soon the earth and mountains were covered with a thick layer of white snow.

On the open space of the Cliff of Repentance, Xu Xingchen waved his sword and practiced his sword skills over and over again.

Snowflakes were flying around him, almost blurring his vision several feet away.

From a distance, it looks like a snowball rolling and spinning!

The snow on the ground did not reach Xu Xingchen's ankles, but it still could not hinder Xu Xingchen's steps in the slightest.

The five sword techniques, with hundreds of sword moves, have been reduced to fourteen moves after more than three months of stopping, practicing, thinking, and summarizing.

After this round of sword practice, Xu Xingchen stopped again, standing in the flying snow, staring blankly at the vast world outside the cliff. Electricity kept flashing in his mind, and sparks of wisdom were bursting and burning.

Yoshihisa
It lasted so long that the snow had already reached his calves. Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in his lifeless eyes, like the light of wisdom illuminating his heart, and he finally retracted and integrated the last move.

choke!
He spun around and drew his sword. The sword light flashed, and the white snow on the ground and in the air rolled up and down like a huge white cloud, covering the front.

This move is exactly the Huashan sword technique "White Clouds Coming Out of the Valley", but compared with the previous White Clouds Coming Out of the Valley, it is very different.

Next, Xu Xingchen used the other moves one by one.
The phoenix arrives, the lord hangs upside down
A white rainbow penetrates the sun, and green pines welcome guests.
Golden geese fly across the sky, and endless falling leaves.
Green mountains are hidden in the distance, and ancient cypresses are densely planted.
The bells and drums sounded, and Xiao Shi rode on a dragon.
The breeze brings coolness, poetry and swords meet friends.
The Huashan Thirteen Styles, which integrates the essence of the other four sword techniques, at this moment displayed a style that is completely different from the past.

The sword light flashed too fast, too quickly, and too fiercely, so it seemed as if it had slowed down.

Ordinary people watching from afar can only see the long sword swinging and rolling up large flakes of snow around it; the long sword stabs forward, and the dancing snowflakes shoot out at an astonishing speed!

Xu Xingchen continued to practice the Thirteen Moves of Huashan on the open space. The snow on the open space and the snowflakes around him all became his foil, dancing, surging and floating with his every move. The scene was sometimes majestic, sometimes strange and dangerous, and sometimes towering and spectacular.

“It’s actually the charm of swordsmanship!”

Feng Qingyang, who was hiding in the dark, suddenly widened his eyes.

　Collect, follow, vote, thank you everyone!
