Chapter 144 Li Ao Sword Realized

Facing the sharply slashing sword light, Zhou Shu showed no fear, but showed a little excitement, as if he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

He retracted his sword, and the rainstorm suddenly stopped.

"After the rain, the sky is blue!"

The last move of the Rapid Rain Sword Art is also the only defensive move.

The sword light swept up, drew countless crosses, and instantly woven a large net, like a tightly stitched blue barrier, blocking Zhou Shu behind.

Li Aojian's slash came as expected.

Like thunder and lightning, it hit the blue barrier, cutting more than half of the barrier in an instant, but the barrier was rolled up layer by layer, rolling towards the sword glow.

With a series of bang bang bang bangs, the sword light and the barrier were entangled together, reaching the extreme, and bursting open suddenly.

Suddenly, a white light appeared, and a whirlwind suddenly blew up on the flat ground. Dust and fallen leaves were flying everywhere. In the smoke, Zhou Shu walked out slowly, with a bit of a smile, "Old Li, your cut is not easy! .”

This battle, evenly divided, may seem thrilling, but in fact the danger is not great.

Both of them used wooden swords and didn't use magic weapons at all. Even though they were quite powerful, in the end it was just a competition of simple moves, and the competition was about each other's understanding of sword tactics.

Li Aojian walked over, with apologetic expression on his face, "I'm sorry, Xiao Zhou. As soon as the sword moves, I only have the sword in my heart, and I don't care about anything else."

He had a kind of enthusiasm for the sword that was close to worship. When he used the sword art with all his strength, he basically threw away everything.

"It's okay, you should be like this, I understand. Besides, you and I are both wooden swords, what's the relationship?"

Zhou Shu waved his hand, not paying much attention to it, Zhou Shu could understand Li Aojian's temperament.

Seeing that Zhou Shu understood, Li Aojian became a lot more relaxed, "Xiao Zhou, you don't look like someone who has only practiced the sword art for a few months. You understand the Urgent Rain Sword Art thoroughly, and you are almost on the verge of catching up." I'm gone."

Zhou Shu smiled, "I'm still far behind. Speaking of which, you are the best. Standing there, you have the aura of a sword cultivator. Many disciples in the inner sect couldn't use the one-cut sword technique just now. If you changed Fei Sword, I probably couldn't stop the last blow, I didn't practice well after the rain."

"Can not be done."

Li Aojian shook his head, "I feel that something is always missing, and the real One-Slash Sword Art is not like this."

"What's that like?" Zhou Shu was a little curious.

"Master Fang said that once the sword cut is done to the extreme, it is a surprise, but when the opponent senses the sword, the sword has already fallen on him, only one sword is enough, and no matter how many opponents you face, Dozens, hundreds, all the same."

Li Aojian sighed softly, "The key is to be caught by surprise, but I seem to be far from it, and it is simply impossible to catch dozens or hundreds of people by surprise."

Zhou Shu nodded thoughtfully, "It's a mysterious feeling. No wonder you come to see the fallen leaves. If you think about it carefully, the fallen leaves are similar. They are also unexpected. They float down here one by one, and you don't even notice their existence. It is normal, but after a while, it will be all over the ground, and you will still wonder, why did so many leaves fall in such a short time?"

"Ah! What did you say?"

Li Aojian was taken aback for a moment, staring straight at Zhou Shu, his expression became very excited.

Zhou Shu repeated, "Decided leaves, although they are floating everywhere, few people pay attention to them. By the time they want to pay attention, they are already all over the ground. No matter how much you sweep them, you can't finish them."

Li Aojian patted Zhou Shu violently, with an extremely excited expression on his face, and suddenly said loudly, "I understand, I understand!"

"Understand what?"

Li Aojian gripped the sword tightly, "This slash is not aimed at highlighting speed! Surprise doesn't have to rely on speed to do it. Like fallen leaves and drizzle, moistening things silently is the essence of surprise!"

"Is that so?"

Li Aojian nodded seriously, and then bowed to Zhou Shu, "Well, I woke up the dreamer with one word. I thought wrong before. I wanted to win by speed, but the current state is far from reaching it. Thank you, Xiao Zhou."

Zhou Shu was still a little dazed, so he could only respond.

When I looked again, Li Aojian had gone so far that I couldn't even see his back.

"I'm just talking casually... Unexpectedly, every time I see the fallen leaves all over the ground, I have this feeling, one by one, how can there be so many falling..."

Zhou Shu muttered a few words and walked to the pavilion.

In the dilapidated attic, Xu Lie was busy. There was a huge wooden barrel in front of him. He was so absorbed in his work that he didn't even notice that Zhou Shu came in.

"Brother, what are you busy with?"

Xu Lie was stunned for a moment, and when he turned around to see Zhou Shu, he said hesitantly, "I didn't do anything."

Zhou Shu raised his eyes and saw that the liquid medicine in the wooden barrel was similar to the one he used, but the medicine was much stronger. He immediately understood, "Brother, do you plan to make a body training breakthrough like this?"

It seemed that Xu Lie didn't intend to train his mind anymore, but wanted to soak in the medicinal liquid directly like Zhou Shu, without using spiritual power to block the medicinal liquid, and desperately fought, so that he might be able to break through the Foundation Establishment Realm.

Xu Lie looked a little embarrassed when his mind was revealed, he scratched his newly grown beard a few times, and said loudly, "I'm just trying to see if this liquid medicine is harmful."

"Oh, junior brother understands."

Zhou Shu smiled, didn't say much, just looked at Xu Lie with a strange look.

Xu Lie glared at Zhou Shu, "Why are you looking for me? If you have nothing to do, go to practice as soon as possible, don't get in the way!"

"Something happened."

Zhou Shu took out a jade slip and handed it to Xu Lie, "Senior brother, I went out to do a mission a few days ago and found a spirit stone mine around the monster hunting area. The address is recorded here, so I will leave it to the senior brother for disposal."

"What, Lingshi Mine?"

Xu Lie scratched his beard with his hand, a little surprised.

"Yes, it should be the third level. I've seen it. There are many middle-grade spirit stones that can be mined." Zhou Shu nodded.

Seeing Zhou Shu's seriousness, Xu Lie believed it, but he didn't accept the jade slip and asked suspiciously, "Why should I deal with it?"

Zhou Shu spread his hands, pretending to be helpless and said, "Brother, I can only use brute force, and I don't know how to mine such expensive mines. Senior brother is very capable and knows a lot of people, so I might as well find someone to mine."

He handed the jade slips to Xu Lie.

Xu Lie stretched out his hand to block it, "The third-tier spirit stone mine can produce at least 50,000 to 80,000 middle-grade spirit stones, and a new batch of spirit stones will be produced every ten years. You don't want such good things, but instead Give me?"

Zhou Shu showed a bit of displeasure, "When did the senior brother become like a mother-in-law, just take it when you take it. When I took your elixir, I didn't refuse it like you did."

Xu Lie shook his head, "It's different, it's for saving lives."

"In my opinion, there is no difference. This spirit stone mine is more useful to my brother than to me. Just take it away. Whether you want it or not, I will put it here!"

Zhou Shu didn't say much, just patted the jade slip on the table, turned around and left.

"return!"

Xu Lie snorted, "Okay, I'll take it."

Seeing that the threat had worked, Zhou Shu turned around with a smile on his face, "That's good, I have other things to ask my brother."
