Chapter 54: Three Deadly Swords in a Chain!
To use the Dugu Nine Swords, in addition to being proficient in sword tactics and swordsmanship, a great part of it depends on the spiritual perception of the sword wielder.

Once one reaches the state of free movement without any rules, the smarter and wiser the swordsman is, the higher his swordsmanship will be.

Every sword duel is like a great poet's inspiration coming to him and composing a good poem.

Xin Zhen felt more and more relaxed as the battle went on, but the four masters became more and more frightened.

Lu Baiyue, who had fought with Xin Zhen before, was terrified.

When the Three Protectors were fighting Xin Zhen, Xin Zhen's attacks were still restrained by the Huashan swordsmanship. Although he fought back later, there were still traces of him.

But today, Xin Zhen was wielding his sword with ease, as if there were no rules in his swordplay.

But he could be forced back with a random sword, and his deterrent power increased dramatically. The more he fought, the more he felt that he was the only one facing Xin Zhen's fierce attack!

Lu Bai felt this way, and the others were even more shocked.

They also felt that they were fighting Xin Zhen alone.

Xin Zhen's swordsmanship was not particularly grand, nor was it as sharp as the swordsmanship of the four people on his side. It was more like a casual attack.

He swung the sword left and right very casually, but as soon as a sword was out, someone would block it in panic.

The four of them couldn't even communicate with each other, it was more like they were fighting alone.

Everyone is facing Xin Zhen's pressure alone!

Everyone in the hall, whether it was Huashan Sect's Yue Buqun and his wife, Linghu Chong, the Huashan Sect's disciples, and Feng Ping and others, were all dazzled by what was happening.

Their situations are different, and they can see different amounts, but they all see peaks that they cannot reach.

Feng Buping was terrified and felt extremely regretful for a moment.

He regretted that he should not have colluded with Songshan to plot against his junior fellow apprentice.

Originally, they could have joined forces with Xin Zhen to strengthen the Sword Sect. Even if Xin Zhen was unwilling to get involved in the affairs of the martial arts world, how could he sit idly by and watch the Sword Sect perish?

With Xin Zhen in charge, the Sword Sect will have no worries for decades.

But they were blinded by greed and chose the most difficult path, which offended Xin Zhen so badly that even their last way of retreat was blocked!

When Feng Buping was regretting, Yue Buqun also felt very complicated.

Although Xin Zhen seems to have no hostility towards the Huashan Sect, just because he doesn't have any hostility towards it now, does that mean he won't have any hostility towards it in the future?

Originally, he thought that Xin Zhen's swordsmanship was superb, but not necessarily much better than his own. Moreover, Yue Buqun was confident that his internal strength was higher than Xin Zhen's. Even if his swordsmanship was not as good, he could still rely on his internal strength to win.

Now it seems that Xin Zhen's swordsmanship is at a level that he cannot reach. When swordsmanship reaches a certain level, even if one's internal strength is higher, the gap cannot be overcome.

When fighting with San Taibao, Xin Zhen had already demonstrated his internal strength. Xin Zhen's internal strength might not be very high, but it was definitely very strong, so he was able to fight San Taibao to exhaustion while still having strength left.

Combining this information, Yue Buqun knew that Xin Zhen's strength had surpassed his own. If such a person had evil thoughts towards Huashan Sect one day, how would Huashan Sect resist!
Yue Buqun's heart was in turmoil as he quickly weighed the pros and cons.

Just when everyone in the hall was feeling excited, the situation suddenly changed.

Cong Buqi saw that his side was at a disadvantage and was unwilling to accept it. He roared angrily and chopped down the enemy with his sword!

Feng Buping, Yue Buqun and other people who had experienced the battle of sword energy were suddenly shocked: Three deadly swords in a chain!

The so-called deadly three immortal swords in a row is the sword sect's unique move. There are only three sword moves, which are used in succession and completed in one go.

Start by striking straight at the opponent's head; if the opponent leans aside to avoid it, then circle the long sword and strike horizontally across the waist;
If the opponent can still dodge, he will surely jump over the sword, and then the long sword will be swung back and stabbed into the opponent's back. If the opponent does not have eyes on his back, it will be difficult for him to dodge.

In the past, the Sword and Qi sects of Huashan Sect fought a sword duel on the Jade Maiden Peak. The Sword sect disciples used these three sword techniques to kill several Qi sect masters.

After the Sword Sect was defeated and the Qi Sect took over the position of the leader of the Huashan Sect, many experts under the Qi Sect carefully studied these three sword techniques and pointed out that these three sword techniques were evil. They only sought to achieve exquisite sword techniques and forgot the Qi Sect's principle of "controlling the sword with Qi", but they were secretly impressed by its power.

Ning Zhongze naturally knew this trick and hurriedly reminded: "Be careful!"

However, Xin Zhen was born into the Sword Sect, so how could he not know this unique move? And he was facing a master from the Sword Sect, so how could he not be on guard?

When he saw Cong Buqi chopping him on the head, he already knew that Cong Buqi was going to use this move.

Xin Zhen did not choose to dodge. If he had chosen to dodge, he would have been in a passive position.

Xin Zhen raised his sword directly upwards, he was determined to take this move!
Cong Buqi was overjoyed.

Until now, although there were four people besieging us and the sound of swords breaking through the air could be heard, making the scene look very intense, in fact, the weapons of both sides had not come into contact.

Cong Buqi suspected that it was because Xin Zhen was young and had little internal strength that he did not dare to touch him, and it was reasonable to think so.

Originally, the focus of Sword Sect disciples' training was on swordsmanship rather than internal strength. This was also the case when Cong Buqi was young. His current strong internal strength is the result of years of accumulation.

In Cong Buqi's opinion, once his sword collided with Xin Zhen's, he would have the possibility to injure Xin Zhen with his internal force, and then his chance of winning would come!

Lu Bai also said happily: "The opportunity has come, prepare for a fatal blow!"

"Clang!" Cong Buqi's sword collided with Xin Zhen's sword as he wished. Before he could be happy, a powerful force came along the sword.

Cong Buqi suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, his sword was bounced up with great force, and his entire center of gravity was also lifted up. Then a flash of sword light suddenly approached.

"Keep someone under the sword!"

Feng Buping rushed forward and grabbed Cong Buqi's back, trying to pull him away, but it was too late.

Cong Buqi felt a chill in his chest as the sword had already pierced through his chest. Fortunately, Feng Buping pulled the sword away from the important part of his chest and penetrated through the shoulder blade instead.

Xin Zhen was unyielding and with only three people left to attack him, the pressure on him was greatly reduced.

His sword light immediately grew three times brighter.

The pressure on the remaining three people suddenly increased.

Yu Ji Zi roared and shook his sword continuously. Suddenly, seven sword lights covered the seven vital points on Xin Zhen's chest.

Linghu Chong was surprised and said, "Be careful, this is the Seven Stars Falling from the Sky from the Taishan Sect!"

"Seven Stars Falling from the Sky" is the essence of Taishan School's swordsmanship.

When this move is launched, the opponent must have great martial arts skills and immediately jump backwards a few feet away to avoid it.

But he also had to recognize the move "Seven Stars Falling from the Sky". As soon as he made a sword move, he had to leap backwards without hesitation to avoid the danger of the sword tip piercing his chest.

After landing, he had to deal with the three fierce follow-up moves. Each of these moves was more ruthless than the last and linked together, making it really difficult to deal with. They were similar to the Huashan Sword Sect's deadly chain of three immortal swords.

Of course Xin Zhen didn't recognize the move Seven Stars Falling from the Sky, but in front of the Sword Breaking Style, any move could be broken down into various details.
