Chapter 175: Mo Xiaobei's move, the real fast sword
Li Ming now has already understood half of the fifteenth sword and can condense his mind into a sword.
But at the crucial step of launching an attack, the vitality and death energy will always become unbalanced and thus dissipate.
This is because his control over the force of life is not enough. If he can advance his level of Longevity Creation Art to a higher level, he will probably be able to formally comprehend the fifteenth sword.
Li Ming couldn't help but feel a little excited when he thought of the power of the legendary fifteenth sword.
This fifteenth sword is too powerful. It is no longer a move that belongs to this world. Once it is released, nothing can be destroyed.
In the original novel, Yan Shisan learned the power of this sword during his duel with Xie Xiaofeng, and instinctively wanted to kill Xie Xiaofeng with this sword. However, at the critical moment, Yan Shisan felt that the sword was too lethal, and he could not bear to see a martial arts genius like Xie Xiaofeng die, so he did not stab out the sword, but instead paid with his own life.
The fifteenth sword was originally realized by Yan Shisan when he was faced with the dilemma of life and death. It is the intersection of destruction and death with hope for life.
If Li Ming had not realized the mystery of the power of vitality, it would have been difficult for him to understand the essence of this sword.
Now he is just practicing with his bare hands. If he waits until Li Ming has formally comprehended the fifteenth sword and then uses the Blood Soul Sword to unleash it, the power will be incomparable.
Li Ming even felt that he might be able to take this opportunity to reach a higher level of swordless realm.
After contemplating for a while, Li Ming went back to rest.
During the peaceful days in the martial arts gym, a large number of disciples continued to supply Li Ming with attribute points every day, allowing him to accumulate a lot of them.
In addition to regularly using it to improve his skills and realm, Li Ming also tried the golden lottery several times and drew out many precious materials and the unique techniques and secret recipes of Xiaoyao Qixue.
After Li Ming mastered these, he taught them to Yang Guo and let him be responsible for all matters in the pharmacy.
The rest of the time was spent practicing the Changsheng Zaohua Gong every day and treating other disabled disciples in the martial arts school.
Since Zi Yu recovered, she has been living a secluded life. Apart from studying medicine, she has been researching some medicines with Yang Guo in the pharmacy. Her life is quite fulfilling.
Lin Pingzhi, as before, devoted himself to practicing martial arts and improving his strength, and worked much harder than the other disciples.
As expected, hard work pays off. Not long after returning from Juxianzhuang, Lin Pingzhi broke through to the late stage of the Innate Realm.
Lin Pingzhi, who saw hope, almost stayed in the secret room of the cold jade bed. After a period of hard training and with the help of various resources, Lin Pingzhi finally reached the peak of the innate realm at an astonishing speed.
Next, he will have hope of reaching the Grandmaster level.
Compared with Jiang Yuyan, Lin Pingzhi has a more solid foundation and a deeper understanding of the martial arts he practices.
When he really reached the peak of the Innate Realm, Lin Pingzhi, who had been eager for revenge, slowed down instead. He was not in a hurry to break through, but started to stabilize his realm again, reviewing the experiences and lessons he had learned since practicing martial arts.
This steady style naturally made Li Ming very pleased.
It seems that Lin Pingzhi has listened to the principles that I taught him.
His current performance is much more mature than before.
Li Ming did not disturb him, but let Lin Pingzhi slowly figure it out.
The strength of Yang Guo and Mo Xiaobei has also improved significantly in the past few months, and they have both reached the middle stage of the Innate Realm.
Considering their age, this speed of progress is already a miracle in the martial arts world, but the two of them are somewhat dissatisfied.
Yang Guo’s foundation was based on the Shen Zhao Jing and the martial arts of Peach Blossom Island, but what he learned in other areas was quite diverse, which more or less distracted his attention, so it was normal that his progress was slow.
Mo Xiaobei has not been able to focus on martial arts recently. After all, his identity is different now. He is the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance and often has to deal with the affairs of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
Although Mo Xiaobei did not say anything, Taishan Sect, Hengshan Sect and others had already very diligently set up the headquarters of the Five Mountains Sword Sect in Qixia Town. Every day, disciples from the Five Mountains could be seen running to deliver messages, which were then summarized and handed over to Mo Xiaobei.
Especially during the process of purging the Songshan Sect, it will be even busier.
Although Mo Xiaobei enjoyed the sense of accomplishment brought by being the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance, he still had little patience for such miscellaneous matters and wanted to give up several times.
In the end, there was no choice but for Mr. Mo Da, who had already decided to retire, to come and help Mo Xiaobei share some of the burden, and she had no objections.
But a lot of the time saved was used to play with Zhou Botong.
Fortunately, his daily martial arts progress did not fall behind, so Li Ming did not push him too much.
During this process, the Five Mountains Sword Sect really showed some new vitality.
First of all, the centripetal force is stronger, and it is not as scattered as before.
Ever since seeing Li Ming display his prowess in Juxianzhuang and experiencing the purge of the Songshan Sect, no one in the Five Mountains Sword Sect has expressed open dissatisfaction with Mo Xiaobei's leadership, and some even intend to take the initiative to move closer to him.
The Songshan Sect's rectification campaign also achieved considerable results.
At least the Songshan Sect did sweep up a lot of good stuff, and these resources were allocated by the leader to train the disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect.
Mo Xiaobei also announced a new alliance leader order not long ago - among the disciples of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, regular selections will be held to screen out a group of outstanding ones and send them to the Seven Heroes Town for intensive training.
No one opposed this idea, instead everyone cooperated with it.
Everyone knows that although they are said to be trained within the Five Mountains Sword Sect, in fact it must be related to the Qianming Martial Arts School. This group of selected disciples will certainly receive great support in martial arts and resources. In this way, this is actually a good opportunity.
Among them, the disciples of Songshan Sect and Taishan Sect, who had larger numbers, took advantage of the most, and their selected disciples accounted for the majority each time.
The first batch of disciples who were sent here for intensive training actually made great progress in a short period of time!
This made everyone feel relieved.
Especially since the Songshan Sect had just been purged, but in this incident, it was not targeted at all, but was trained equally, which made some of the previous voices of dissatisfaction with Mo Xiaobei disappear.
Instead, everyone praised Leader Mo's fair and just style of doing things.
As a result, the centripetal force within the Five Mountains Sword Sect became stronger, and they were more enthusiastic about selecting disciples.
The Huashan Sect, which was losing its talents, also felt a sense of crisis. In order to keep up with the times, it began to recruit disciples for the first time.
That day, Mo Xiaobei had just returned from the martial arts gym when he saw Yu Jizi walking towards him.
"Hey, wait a minute..."
Mo Xiaobei pulled Yu Jizi over and glanced in the direction of Tongfu Inn. He found that Tong Xiangyu, Bai Zhantang and others were still busy doing business, so he hurriedly asked Yu Jizi to go to a corner where no one was.
The two men looked around like thieves for a long time before they relaxed a little.
Then Yu Jizi took out a few candied haws he had just bought and gave them to Mo Xiaobei.
"Alliance leader, this is what you asked me to buy. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and was not discovered by Shopkeeper Tong."
After Yu Jizi finished speaking, he wiped the sweat off his forehead nervously.
Mo Xiaobei's eyes lit up. He snatched the candied haws and started eating it with relish.
Yu Jizi then asked: "Alliance leader, can we deal with the affairs of our Five Mountains Sword Sect now..."
"Okay, okay, okay." Mo Xiaobei agreed while eating.
Yu Jizi looked quite helpless.
As an elder of the Taishan Sect, he actually had to secretly buy candied haws. If this were to get out, I wonder how many fellow martial artists would laugh at him. But Mo Xiaobei insisted that he would only be willing to deal with the affairs of the Five Mountains Sword Sect if he could eat candied haws. Otherwise, he would just be a hands-off boss. Yu Jizi was also quite helpless.
Last time, he participated in the operation to purge the Songshan Sect and obtained several medicinal pills, especially the Yiqi Powder. After taking it for a few days, his cultivation level really improved slowly. He became addicted to it and couldn't wait to show off in front of Mo Xiaobei in order to gain more benefits.
"Our new batch of selected disciples have arrived at Qixia Town. There are also several fellow disciples in the Xiantian realm. We need the leader to take time to meet them."
"That's it, nothing else?"
Mo Xiaobei said vaguely, having finished the candied haws in no time, and wiped his mouth.
"Okay, okay, take me to see them now."
"Yes!"
Yu Jizi immediately took the order and took Mo Xiaobei to an open area outside the town.
"Alliance Master Mo!"
A group of disciples from the Five Mountains Sword Sect were standing or sitting, waiting here. When they saw Mo Xiaobei appear, they all stood up hurriedly.
Next to them, there were a few older warriors.
The most eye-catching person was a middle-aged man dressed in black, standing with his hands behind his back, with a rather sharp look on his face.
With a bit of pride and suspicion, he looked at Mo Xiaobei and looked him over and over.
This person is Feng Buping.
Since he rejoined the Five Mountains Sword Sect, he temporarily left Songshan. After mediation by Mo Xiaobei, Yue Buqun also agreed to temporarily put aside the dispute between the Sword and Qi Sects.
But Feng Buping still did not return to Huashan. Instead, he contacted Yu Jizi and decided to come to Qixia Town to meet the leader Mo first.
After seeing that Mo Xiaobei was younger than he expected, he couldn't help but reveal a bit of disappointment.
Such a childish little girl was actually the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance who commanded him. This was something Feng Buping couldn't accept and felt was too embarrassing.
But Yu Jizi next to him introduced it to Mo Xiaobei enthusiastically.
"This is the heir of Huashan Sword Sect, Junior Brother Feng Buping."
Mo Xiaobei looked Feng Buping up and down, coughed, and spoke in a serious and airy manner.
"I have heard about your affairs. I will also properly handle the dispute between the Huashan Sword Sect and the Huashan Qi Sect in the future."
Seeing that Mo Xiaobei was really acting like the leader, Feng Buping became more and more dissatisfied.
He came here just to see the style of this leader Mo, but now he is greatly disappointed.
"Alliance Master Mo, I have an unwelcome request. I wonder if I should say it or not?"
"Please say."
"I heard that Alliance Leader Mo defeated Yue Songtao in swordplay in front of all the warriors in the world and won the position of Alliance Leader."
Feng Buping paused slightly when he said this.
"It just so happens that my sword sect also follows the path of meticulously studying moves. I have long heard of the name of Alliance Leader Mo. I wonder if you can teach me a thing or two today, so that I can broaden my horizons."
"Feng Buping, what are you doing!" Yu Jizi, who was standing next to him, frowned and scolded when he heard it.
He was kind enough to introduce Feng Buping, but Feng Buping seemed impolite.
"It doesn't matter..."
Mo Xiaobei raised his hand to stop Yu Jizi, and nodded happily in agreement: "Okay, since you want to compete, then let's give it a try."
Yu Jizi still wanted to stop him, but seeing that Mo Xiaobei insisted, he had to hold back the rest of his words.
Soon, Feng Buping stood with a sword in his hand, and Mo Xiaobei stretched out his hand and pulled out Yu Jizi's sword.
The swords of the Taishan School are generally longer, and it looks a bit out of proportion when held in the hands of the short Mo Xiaobei.
"Alliance Master Mo, be careful!"
Before Feng Buping finished his words, his body moved violently and rushed over like a gust of strong wind.
He had only heard of Mo Xiaobei's deeds before, but he didn't believe that such a little girl could have any strength unless he saw it with his own eyes.
It just so happens that their Huashan Sword Sect is best at martial arts moves, so when Feng Buping made his move, he used his own unique martial arts skill - 108 Styles of Gale Sword!
Feng Buping's body was surrounded by powerful sword energy and there was a faint whistling sound of strong wind.
Mo Xiaobei, who was standing opposite the swift sword, was instantly enveloped by the fierce momentum, like a small boat in the flood waves, isolated and helpless.
If it were any other opponent of the same level, he might be frightened by the momentum of Feng Buping's swift sword.
But in Mo Xiaobei's eyes, his attack posed no threat at all.
Although Mo Xiaobei is also in the Innate Realm now, the top-level martial arts he has been exposed to are difficult for others to achieve in their lifetime. Both in terms of vision and understanding of martial arts, he is far ahead of Feng Buping.
In Mo Xiaobei's eyes, the seemingly threatening quick sword was actually full of fancy fake moves. It was not simple and efficient at all, and it was too focused on form.
Not to mention, this sword technique is far from being able to deviate from the shadow of Huashan sword technique, it is just evolved from it.
Even if Mo Xiaobei only relied on her own strength, this move could not pose a threat to her.
Not to mention that she was also proficient in how to break the Five Mountains Sword Technique and could see the flaw at a glance.
"Ugh."
Mo Xiaobei shook his head slightly, feeling a little disappointed. He had thought that Feng Buping could bring him some surprises, but in fact, he was far inferior to his fellow disciples.
Swish!
Feng Buping's sword approached, but Mo Xiaobei just raised his hand and arrived first.
Only when Mo Xiaobei makes a move can we see what a real fast sword is!
It was so fast that the trajectory could not be seen at all. It was like a flash of lightning, going straight forward without any false moves, but it was pointing directly at the flaws in Feng Buping's seemingly scary sword moves.
"what!"
Feng Buping braked subconsciously, but the force was too strong and he was a little late.
All the powerful moves of his swift sword were stabbed at the vital point and collapsed and dissipated in an instant.
At the same time, Feng Buping stopped abruptly and froze in place.
He looked down and found that the tip of Mo Xiaobei's sword was precisely against his Danzhong point. The tip of the sword had even slightly scratched his clothes and sank a little bit.
This was because Mo Xiaobei intentionally showed mercy and pulled the tip of the sword back a few inches, otherwise Feng Buping would have been seriously injured.
Feng Buping's face flushed red, and he suddenly dodged the tip of Mo Xiaobei's sword, turned his wrist sharply, and changed his moves.
