Daqin Zhentiansi

Chapter 5 This is the state of perfection in Cloak Swordsmanship!

The old soldier was called Chen Youde. Like Zhang Yuan, he was a member of the Zaoyiwei Guard who sent death row prisoners from Luyang Prefecture. He was once a colleague of Zhang Yuan's father.

Of the eight soap guards who came to Toyota County together, only Chen Youde and Zhang Yuan were left.

Zhang Yuan nodded and walked towards the middle of the alley with the knife in hand.

"I'll hold the enemy back, and you finish them off."

Master Tao shouted softly, shook the wooden spear in his hand, deflected the arrow, and rushed towards the black-armored soldiers without stopping.

Zhang Yuan squatted slightly and stabbed his long sword into the chests of the two black-armored soldiers who were still struggling.

The two beads of qi and blood turned into a torrent of energy and rushed into the body, causing the meridians to swell as if they were about to be torn apart.

The blue-gray aura surged into his body, swirled around, and transformed into two round beads again.

Both the boxing and swordsmanship have been cultivated to perfection, and there is no way to comprehend them. Can this understanding be stored in the form of beads?

There was no time to think about these things. Zhang Yuan looked up and saw Master Tao in front of him with his spear flying around. He stabbed with every step he took, and the tip of the spear was shining, making a whistling sound like piercing cloth.

This spear technique is not the three spears practiced by the soldiers in the camp before the battle.

"My Tao family is a prominent family in Yuping County, and poetry and literature are passed down from generation to generation."

"My mother has always hoped that I could take the civil service exam and not break the Tao family's Confucian and Taoist tradition."

"I, Tao Yulin, have always disliked literature and have been drawn to martial arts since childhood. I have studied martial arts under famous masters and have always been fed up with those lectures."

Master Tao brandished his spear and walked forward, shouting loudly, but it was unclear whether he was talking to Zhang Yuan or to himself.

"Until three years ago, I accidentally killed someone, implicating the entire Tao family. The descendants of the Tao family were disqualified from taking the civil service exams, and my mother died of grief and anger."

The gorgeous spear flower pierced into the waist of a black-armored soldier who rushed forward. The wooden spear was pulled out and swept across the thigh of another black-armored soldier, leaving a bloody wound.

Zhang Yuan took a step forward, rolled on the ground, and stabbed the black-armored soldier's throat, who was covering his thigh and trying to retreat, with his long sword. The blade came out from the back of his neck.

The speed and strength brought by the extreme level of acquired cultivation in the early stage, and the control of the swordsmanship at the great perfection level, made his sword strike fierce and decisive.

Without putting away the knife, Zhang Yuan held the knife with both hands, knelt on one knee, twisted the long knife, and chopped it out fiercely.

One of the eight cloak sword techniques, Zhan Feng.

The knife that cut off half of the black-armored soldier's neck slashed the chest of the soldier who was shot in the waist and abdomen.

The thin leather armor could not withstand Zhang Yuan's heavy blow. The blade cut into the sternum, and blood spurted out. The soldier's body was also cut back and fell two feet away. He kicked his feet and stopped breathing.

Power, speed, timing.

Zhang Yuan's sword strike demonstrated the extreme ferocity of his cloaked swordsmanship.

After drawing his gun to catch his breath, Master Tao turned his head slightly and glanced at Zhang Yuan, who was hunched over and dragging his sword, with a smile on his face.

"Good boy, your swordsmanship has actually reached the great perfection level."

Outsiders cannot see the difference between the sword techniques of the Great Accomplishment Realm and the Great Perfection Realm. Only the practitioners themselves can feel the huge gap between them.

With a thrust of his spear, he forced back the charging black-armored soldier. Master Tao said loudly, "You should go and learn martial arts. Perhaps you'll have a chance to achieve innate enlightenment."

The Qin Dynasty was founded on military power, and martial arts were respected. Even ordinary people had to learn some martial arts to protect themselves.

Unfortunately, the poor are in literature but rich in martial arts. Martial arts training is extremely costly, and the inheritance is controlled by powerful forces. Ordinary martial artists will never have the chance to enter the innate realm in their lifetime.

Warriors without resources and inheritance can only risk their lives for military merit in exchange for the opportunity to practice martial arts in the government court.

Zhang Yuan didn't say anything at this time, but just lowered his body, holding the knife, crouching like a tiger, standing beside Master Tao.

After killing two more people, his Qi and blood strength broke through to 800 kilograms, and his martial arts skills entered the middle stage of the acquired realm!

A chaotic light screen appeared in his mind.

【Zhang Yuan】

Identity: Ninth-rank guard of Luyang Prefecture, Great Qin, recruited soldier of the Red Scale Army

Cultivation: Middle stage of the acquired realm, physical body and blood are not stable yet, and cannot be upgraded for the time being

Martial Arts Training: Cloak Sword Skills are at Perfection and cannot be upgraded; Iron Armor Fist Skills are at Perfection and cannot be upgraded

Battle Formation: Canglang Formation Minor Success
Chaos Space: Four Perception Beads
Chaos Auxiliary Combat: He has not yet activated his cultivation and has just entered the middle stage of the acquired realm. His body and bones are not well tempered and are temporarily unable to bear more energy and blood.

The cultivation and martial arts training have reached the limit and there is no room for improvement. The insights and blood beads gained through feeding back will be stored in the chaotic space.

Store the blood beads and perception beads, and use them to break through and improve later.

As for the Canglang Army Formation that is often practiced in the army, it is probably achieved by the small success level during the period of meditation, practice and memory. This formation is not difficult.

"Woo——"

In the distance, the sound of horns resounded.

There was a commotion behind the black-armored soldiers who were blocked in the road. The soldiers who were forced to retreat by Master Tao held round shields, swords and spears and pressed forward step by step.

The State of Yan was founded by a rebellion against Qin officials, and its military formations followed the military laws of the Great Qin.

With shields in front and spears at the back, and swords and weapons following, five people form a formation, advancing and retreating in unison. This is the Canglang Formation.

"Be careful." Master Tao shouted softly, took a step to the left, took two steps into the air, and used the rebound force of the street pillars to fly onto the eaves.

The man was on the eaves of a house several feet high. Master Tao swung his spear horizontally, and the man fell with the spear. The spear swung around and whistled down.

"Snapped--"

The spear hit the back of a soldier who was bent over holding a shield, breaking his spine and sending his body falling to the ground.

As he landed on the ground, Master Tao held the spear in his hand, where the dagger was tied in front of the spear tip. He moved forward and stabbed the soldier, and the spear tip pierced the ribs of the soldier who turned around.

At this time, Zhang Yuan did not hesitate. He took advantage of the moment when the shield-bearing soldier was knocked down by Master Tao to rush out and crash into the gap in the army formation in front. He held the knife in both hands and pulled it diagonally.

Move forward and drag the knife, step forward and chop the knife.

The two sword moves were swift and agile, the movements were clean and neat, the blade brushed against the waist of the shield-holding soldier on the left, leaving a bloody wound, and then cut into the shoulder armor of another soldier, making him stagger, and the formation to surround and kill Master Tao was also broken.

The knife is as strong as the wind, and the body follows the knife!
The man and the sword were in harmony, the force penetrated the blade, and Zhang Yuan felt that every move was extremely refreshing.

This is the state of perfection in the Cloak Sword Technique!

As soon as the army formation was broken, Master Tao laughed loudly and swept his spear across, knocking away two soldiers holding knives. The spear tip was like a snake, piercing into the thigh of the black-armored soldier in front of him.

The siege and attack by the two groups of black-armored Yan soldiers were directly broken by Zhang Yuan and Master Tao.

The remaining two soldiers retreated in panic. Zhang Yuan took advantage of the situation and stepped forward, stabbing them with his long sword and killing the two wounded soldiers.

Two more blood beads and two beads of enlightenment were harvested!

Accumulate more Qi and Blood beads and Enlightenment beads to prepare for future practice!

Zhang Yuan raised his head, and a smile appeared on his red face which was splattered with blood, looking hideous and terrifying.

Zhang Yuan took a step forward and was grabbed by the arm by Master Tao.

"retreat."

"You've been bewitched by evil spirits."

Mr. Tao's words shocked Zhang Yuan and his eyes became clear again.

There was too much killing, and the minds were confused by the evil spirit, and countless soldiers died on the battlefield.

That kind of excited state of mind with a desire to fight can increase the soldiers' combat effectiveness, but it can also cost them their lives.

If it weren't for Master Tao's call, Zhang Yuan would have already rushed straight into the enemy camp.

"Let's go." Zhang Yuan nodded and stepped back with the knife in hand.

Duan Hong and his team have already gone far away, and their mission of covering their retreat has been completed.

Staying behind does not mean committing suicide.

Master Tao nodded, holding the wooden spear, then turned sideways, dragging the spear, and retreated to the back of the street.

Just as the two of them retreated a few steps, a sharp scream came from two hundred steps away.

箭！
It takes at least the strength of an ox to shoot such a whistling arrow.

Innate Realm!
