The Hunter Who Killed Immortals (66)

(Mount Xilean- Holy Sword Sect)

(Fifth Peak)

Months had slowly passed.

Xu Lu stood silently in the middle of a clearing and unsheathed her blade. Leaves fell down from the treetops as she waited for the right moment to strike.

Slash!

A burst of sword qi erupted from the tip of her blade and all the nearby leaves were neatly bisected in half.

The strike was faster than the normal human eye could follow. 

One moment the leaves were unharmed and the next they were sliced to pieces.

Xu Lu let out a light sigh and then adjusted her posture to repeat her movements. She was now beginning to incorporate long range strikes using her sword qi into her combat training.

She could feel all of her muscles aching in pain as she swung her sword for the hundredth or maybe it was the thousandth time.

All in an effort to get stronger.
