Chapter 47: The Six Immortals of Taogu!
Xin Zhen asked Linghu Chong to recite it once, then nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, I only had time to teach you the Sword Breaking Style on the boat before, so now is the perfect time to teach you the remaining eight styles."
Afterwards, Xin Zhen explained the Dugu Nine Swords formula one sentence at a time according to its order, and explained the various changes in the formula.
Linghu Chong had only learned the sword-breaking style before, but with Xin Zhen's guidance, he understood some principles of superior martial arts every moment, and learned some ingenious and wonderful changes every moment. He could not help but admire with joy and was overwhelmed with emotion, and instead threw away the depression in his heart.
After that, Xin Zhen went to the Cliff of Regret every day and taught Linghu Chong all the nine sword techniques, including the General Formula, Sword Breaking Formula, Knife Breaking Formula, etc. It took him more than ten days to teach the rest of the content.
And the usefulness of Tian Boguang that Xin Zhen mentioned was that he was used by Linghu Chong to practice sword skills.
After Linghu Chong finished practicing the Broken Sword Style, Xin Zhen had Linghu Chong fight against Tian Boguang for two days, which allowed Linghu Chong to gain a better understanding of this sword style than other moves.
Seeing that Linghu Chong had basically mastered the Dugu Nine Swords, Xin Zhen said to Linghu Chong, "Brother Linghu, you have basically mastered the Dugu Nine Swords. The next step is to practice diligently, and then learn the sword techniques of hundreds of schools. One day, your sword technique will be perfected.
After that, I won't be coming up for the time being. My home is in Xinjia Village at the foot of the mountain. When you can go down the mountain, go to Xinjia Village and ask, and you will be able to find me."
Linghu Chong smiled and said, "Okay, I will come to bother you often when I am released from confinement. Don't be disgusted by my frequent visits then."
Xin Zhen shook his head and smiled: "Okay, I'll wait for you."
Although Xin Zhen said this, he thought in his heart: You will be busy and toilsome for the rest of your life, so how will you have time to come and see me?
Then Xin Zhen took Tian Boguang down the mountain. On the mountain road, Xin Zhen said to Tian Boguang: "Tian Boguang, I will give you two paths, you choose."
Tian Boguang was worried and asked, "What road?"
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "The first way is that I will cut off the root of your troubles. You have brought disaster to countless decent women. If I continue to let you live happily like this, it will not be consistent with my concept."
Tian Boguang's expression changed drastically and he said, "I choose the second path!"
Xin Zhen nodded, drew his sword with a clang, and pointed it at Tian Boguang's forehead.
Tian Boguang was horrified and had no way to dodge the sword, so he could only fall backwards.
But behind him was a steep hillside. Tian Boguang rolled down the hillside and was cut by the rubble, his body covered in blood. Below was a deep valley.
At the last moment, Tian Boguang stabbed the mountain path with his long knife, so he did not fall into the deep valley.
But he did not check his injuries carefully, nor did he have time to be afraid. Instead, he drew his knife and looked up immediately.
Just as he raised his head, a flash of sword light came towards his forehead again.
Tian Boguang gritted his teeth, half-crouched and chopped fiercely with the steel knife, and then chopped with the steel knife desperately, almost turning it into a ball of white light.
He even felt that this was much stronger than his previous peak, and in fact this was not an illusion.
These days he fought against Linghu Chong, and although Linghu Chong gained great benefits, he also gained a lot of benefits.
Compared with before, he was even half a step stronger. He was confident that he could kill Yu Canghai within a hundred moves when facing him again.
And now facing Xin Zhen, he doesn't think he has no ability to resist!
On the steep mountain road, facing Tian Boguang's desperate fight, Xin Zhen was in a graceful position and even had enough time to speak.
“Tian Boguang, I told you before that there are two ways to defeat you. One is the quick sword, which you have already experienced.
The other is to anticipate the enemy's moves. Do you want to try it?"
Tian Boguang said angrily: "It's nothing more than the tricks you taught Linghu Chong. He has never been able to defeat me in a fight. It's nothing but a joke!"
Xin Zhen smiled and said, "If you survive, the next time you meet Linghu Chong, you will not be his match. Just wait and see."
Seeing that Tian Boguang had finished using his sword and was about to launch his next attack, Xin Zhen casually thrust out his long sword, and Tian Boguang quickly leaped back.
Because if he didn't jump back, the sword would have directly passed through the knife net and hit him on the center of his eyebrows. Tian Boguang roared, closed his knife and rushed forward, wrapping himself in the knife light and rushing towards Xin Zhen.
Xin Zhen thrust out another sword.
Tian Boguang saw the long sword passing through the knife light and pointing towards his forehead again.
However, the sword lights all over the sky could not stop the sword at all. He quickly rolled to the ground and finally avoided the sword.
However, Tian Boguang already felt a chill in his heart.
These two swords may seem simple, but they both strike at the moment when his swordsmanship is at its most vulnerable.
Even though he had used an old sword, when he was about to use a new sword, it seemed that Xin Zhen had already seen through his moves.
Is this what it means to anticipate the enemy’s moves?
This was something Tian Boguang did not experience when he fought with Linghu Chong. He was already feeling a little desperate.
Suddenly someone shouted, "Is that Linghu Chong? I heard that Linghu Chong is handsome and from the Huashan Sect. This young man with a sword is also handsome and handsome. It must be him, right?"
"Bullshit! He's handsome and can wield a sword, but he may not be Linghu Chong!"
said another.
"That's right, a young man who uses a sword in Jianghu happens to be handsome and dashing, so he must be Linghu Chong?"
Another person said.
Tian Boguang was secretly delighted that he had managed to escape from a desperate situation.
Xin Zhen's heart tightened and he immediately became alert. Those six rogues from the Six Immortals of Taogu had arrived!
Sure enough, two figures flashed on the opposite mountain road and blocked the middle of the road. The two men were extremely ugly, with bumpy faces and full of wrinkles.
The mountain path was narrow and steep, with a deep valley on one side. The sudden appearance of these two people on the mountain path was extremely abrupt.
The two ugly men asked in unison: "Are you Linghu Chong?"
Xin Zhen did not answer and immediately stood sideways.
Sure enough, two more ugly men were approaching from behind, and he took a step to the side.
There were two more ugly men standing at the edge of the valley on the mountain path. The six ugly men looked quite similar.
"Are you Linghu Chong?"
The six people asked in unison.
Tian Boguang shouted, "He is Linghu Chong!"
The six people said happily in unison: "Linghu Chong, we will take you to see the little nun."
Tian Boguang was overjoyed: "You were also sent here. Great, let's capture Linghu Chong and bring him to see the little nun!"
As soon as these words came out, the six ugly men all looked at Tian Boguang, and then one of them said, "This man seems to have the same purpose as me, and was also called by the little nun. Is he considered our companion?"
Another ugly man disagreed, "What a useless companion! If he captures Linghu Chong and takes him to see the little nun, wouldn't that just steal our credit? He's our rival."
Another ugly man clapped his hands and said, "Oh, that's right, what should we do?"
The six of them nodded in unison, and then moved like ghosts towards Xin Zhen and Tian Boguang.
Xin Zhen leaned sideways against the mountain wall to prevent a sneak attack from behind. When Tian Boguang saw the six ugly men coming, he was overjoyed and wanted to escape when he got the chance, but unexpectedly the six ugly men pounced on him together.
