Picking leaves and flying flowers
The fourth palm of the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm has been cultivated successfully, and the whole set of palms has reached the level of low-level martial arts at the spirit level. The power of the palm technique is even comparable to the middle-grade spirit-level martial arts.
You don't need to practice the palm technique for a while, but now, you can focus on practicing the sword technique.
Tianxin swordsmanship, a low-level swordsmanship at the spiritual level, has a total of twelve moves, and Zhang Ruochen has only cultivated three moves now. Only by successfully cultivating the entire set of sword techniques can the full power of the sword techniques be unleashed.
Zhang Ruochen sat cross-legged on the ground, and twelve picture scrolls appeared in his mind. On each picture scroll is a figure holding a sword. The figure seems to come alive, waving sword moves on the picture scroll.
When practicing swordsmanship, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but grabbed the Flashing Soul Sword on the ground, and started to swing the sword. Sword lights followed his arms, exuding sharp sword energy.
It took ten days for Zhang Ruochen to successfully practice the fourth move of Tianxin Sword Art, "Tianxin Full Moon".
After spending fifteen days, Zhang Ruochen successfully practiced the fifth move of Tianxin swordsmanship, "Tianxin Chaochao".
It took another fifteen days for Zhang Ruochen to successfully practice the sixth move of Tianxin swordsmanship, "Tianxin Wind and Rain".
This time, Zhang Ruochen stayed in the inner space of the space-time spar for forty-three days, and half a month passed outside.
During these forty-three days, Zhang Ruochen not only practiced Tianxin swordsmanship, but also took Sanqing Zhenqi Dan every day, which greatly improved his cultivation.
The real gas reserves in the Qi Lake have already reached 50% of the capacity of the Qi Lake.
With his current cultivation base, even if he doesn't use the space-time domain and the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, he can still defeat a warrior at the extreme level of the Black Realm.
"Tomorrow is the time for the decisive battle with Feng Zhilin on the stage of life and death. It's time to go out for a walk."
Zhang Ruochen stood up, and within a few meters of the space, there was a "swish" sound of sword energy, as if there were invisible swords flying in the air.
"This is..."
Zhang Ruochen's heart was overjoyed, and the realm of sword intent had been raised to a higher level, reaching the peak state of the sword following one's heart.
The sword follows the heart and is divided into four realms: elementary, intermediate, high, and peak.
Among the warriors of the Black Realm, there are very few people who can practice the sword to move to the middle level. Once they have cultivated to the middle level, they can be considered strong among the fighters of the Black Realm. Huang Yanchen and Duanmu Xingling are both in the middle level.
Zhang Ruochen has the memory of martial arts from the previous life, as well as a powerful martial soul. He actually cultivated to the peak of the sword following his heart in the late stage of the Xuanji state. He was only one step away from entering the state of the sword heart.
To reach the peak state of the sword following the heart, even if you pick a branch or a blade of grass on the side of the road, it can be used as a sword.
You can kill with branches and blades of grass.
Zhang Ruochen's temperament changed obviously, like a young sword god.
When he came to the courtyard of No. 1 Huangzi, Zhang Ruochen frowned suddenly when he heard a strange noise behind him, and said in a deep voice, "Who is it?"
Zhang Ruochen stepped on the ground, knocked a leaf into the air, and fell into his fingers, blending his true energy and sword intent into the leaf, and with a flick of his finger, the leaf flew out like a sharp blade.
"Boom!"
The wall in the distance was pierced by leaves, leaving a crack.
A black cat kicked out from behind the wall, and said in surprise: "Picking leaves and flying flowers! Young man, it's incredible, he has reached the peak of free will at such a young age, and it won't be long before he will reach the level of the sword!" The realm of enlightenment?"
Zhang Ruochen looked at Xiao Hei, withdrew the true energy in his body, and said, "Are you stealing books again?"
Xiao Hei walked on both feet, stood up, holding a thick book in his two paws, and said: "I have been sealed in the Qiankun Shenmu Map for 100,000 years, and I am completely out of touch with the outside world. Naturally, I need to read more books to understand The changes in the Kunlun Realm in the past 100,000 years."
Zhang Ruochen nodded, thinking that what Xiao Hei said was very reasonable, and he also felt that he should spend more time reading books to understand the major events that happened in the past 800 years.
It never hurts to know a little more.
"Come out with me to see if the fourth brother's injury has healed." Zhang Ruochen said.
Xiao Hei kicked his feet and jumped onto Zhang Ruochen's shoulder.
It lay on Zhang Ruochen's shoulder, only caring about reading, ignoring where Zhang Ruochen was going?
Zhang Ruochen and Zhang Shaochu had only met once, so they couldn't talk about family relationship. However, they still had a good impression of this fourth brother. After the retreat, they planned to visit him.
Liu Chengfeng and the three freshmen from Yunwu Commandery were rushing towards Longwu Hall. When they saw Zhang Ruochen on the way, they were overjoyed and immediately went up to meet him.
Liu Chengfeng said: "Your Highness, Ninth Prince, you have finally left the customs! It's not a big deal!"
Zhang Ruochen said, "What happened?"
Before Liu Chengfeng opened his mouth, a freshman next to him gritted his teeth and said, "Ninth Prince, during the month of your retreat, Sifang Commandery has been suppressing our students from Yunwu Commandery, and several students were seriously injured. People are more or less bullied by them, it is really miserable."
"Besides, I also heard that two students from Yunwu County went out to do missions and disappeared for no reason. It is very likely that the students from Sifang County worked behind the scenes and killed them outside."
Another freshman said: "Those students from Sifang Commandery didn't dare to break into Longwu Hall, so they attacked us. I was beaten three times. Now that I see them, I can only run away."
Zhang Ruochen didn't expect the situation to develop like this, and said, "Don't the elders of the school don't care?"
Liu Chengfeng said: "In order to sharpen the students and increase the competitiveness of the students, the elders of the academy will generally not intervene in the struggles between the students. Moreover, they have the support of Elder Situ, so they are even more unscrupulous in the West Campus."
Liu Chengfeng said in a low voice: "Elder Situ's status in the West Courtyard is second only to the head of the hospital and the two deputy heads. Now, Elder Situ is almost in charge of the affairs of the West Courtyard."
Zhang Ruochen understood that as long as the students from Sifang Commandery didn't kill other students in the open, it would not be considered a violation of the rules of the school and would not be punished.
As for the two missing students, who can prove that they are dead? Who can prove that it was the students from the Sifang Commandery who attacked them?
Zhang Ruochen said: "They are taking revenge."
Zhang Ruochen and Ziqian killed nearly a hundred young warriors from Sifang Commandery during the first round of the palace exam. Sifang Commandery has now launched revenge on the students of Yunwu Commandery, and even wants to kill the students of Yunwu Commandery All were driven out of the West Courtyard.
A freshman said with a sad face: "I have had enough this month! Your Highness Ninth Prince, you must not be defeated tomorrow. If you lose to Fengzhilin, then our Yunwu County students will be completely defeated. For sure! They will be suppressed even more severely by the students from the Sifang Commandery."
Another freshman nodded and sighed: "If even His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince is defeated, I dare not stay in the West Court any longer, so I can only go back to Yunwu Commandery."
The other two freshmen also nodded.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Don't worry, everyone. Since the students from Sifang Commandery are going to start a fight, I will fight with them. That's right! Liu Chengfeng, why are you looking for me?"
Liu Chengfeng patted his forehead, and said: "Almost forgot about the business! I received news that Nie Xuan, Wang Lang, and Xie Zhaowu from Sifang Commandery are leading a group of students to find trouble with the fourth prince Zhang Shaochu."
Zhang Ruochen's eyes sank, and he said, "It's Nie Xuan again, isn't the lesson from last time not enough?"
Liu Chengfeng said: "The reason why they chose to attack the fourth prince tonight is mainly to affect your state of mind. As long as your mind is disturbed, you will definitely lose in the battle on the stage of life and death tomorrow."
In the battle on the stage of life and death, once you lose, there is only one dead end.
Zhang Ruochen said: "Take me to the fourth brother's residence immediately. I want to see who dares to do it today."
Liu Chengfeng had great confidence in Zhang Ruochen, took Zhang Ruochen and the other three freshmen, and hurried towards Zhang Shaochu's dormitory.
Zhang Ruochen is the first freshman, so he can live in Longwu Hall and enjoy the best treatment.
The top ten freshmen and the top one hundred students in the West Campus can also have their own dormitory. Although it is not as luxurious as the Dragon Martial Hall, it is at least very comfortable and suitable for cultivation.
As for other students, they can only live in ordinary dormitories, and four people live in one house.
Zhang Shaochu is just an ordinary student, living in this kind of dormitory. His three roommates were bruised and swollen from the beating by Nie Xuan, and they were thrown flying, lying on the ground and vomiting blood.
Nie Xuan grabbed Zhang Shaochu's lapel with one hand, and lifted Zhang Shaochu up from the ground, with a cold smile on his face: "Zhang Shaozhu, your two arms have healed? But my hands are forever It's useless. What do you think should be done?"
Nie Xuan's palm was cut off by Zhang Ruochen, so he installed a short sword of the real weapon level on the wrist, and embedded the sword body in the wrist, connecting it with the meridians in the arm.
"It's not Zhang Shaozhu, it's Zhang Shaochu." Zhang Shaochu gritted his teeth and said in a low voice.
He was still a little afraid of Nie Xuan, and he had no confidence in speaking.
Nie Xuan raised his arm, and a sharp sword was placed on top of Zhang Shaochu's right ear, and he only needed to swipe down slightly to cut off his right ear.
Nie Xuan smiled grimly: "Hey! As long as you say Zhang Ruochen is a coward and a coward, I will let you go this time. How about it?"
Standing aside, Wang Lang, Xie Zhaowu, and other warriors from the Sifang counties all showed playful smiles.
Zhang Shaochu was very angry, although he was afraid, he still mustered up his courage and said: "You are dreaming, do you believe that Jiudi will cut off your other hand?"
Nie Xuan's face darkened, and he said, "I don't know what to do!"
Nie Xuan's arm suddenly swung downward, about to chop off Zhang Shaochu's right flower. Even Zhang Shaochu was so frightened that he sweated all over his body, closed his eyes, and let out a scream.
However, no matter how hard Nie Xuan tried, the sword embedded in his arm just couldn't fall down.
Jian Feng was clamped tightly by two fingers and stopped in mid-air.
The owner of those two fingers is naturally Zhang Ruochen.
"Snapped!"
Zhang Ruochen's fingers turned jade white, and two streams of true energy rushed to the fingertips, producing a twisting force that broke the sword.
A powerful force was transmitted from the sword body to Nie Xuan's arm, causing Nie Xuan to feel pain all over his body, and he stepped back, almost hitting the wall.
Nie Xuan raised his arm, looked at the broken sword, his face showed surprise, and said: "You actually used two fingers to pinch off a sword of the third-order real weapon level!"
"Bang!"
Zhang Ruochen threw half of the sword tip on the ground, stared at Nie Xuan coldly, and said, "Nie Xuan, what's the point of bullying my fourth brother, how about I come and practice two moves with you?"
