Report

Watching Long Xiaoyun's figure fly backwards, Wang Yan couldn't help but reach out and gently stroke the Sword Of Hell's blade. The reason he came to Liangqiao Town this time was because he couldn't wait to find someone to test the sword on after deducing the combination of the Soft Silk Gang Qi and the Sword Of Hell in Cang Mountain. Novels

It had been more than a month since Wang Yan had obtained the Sword Of Hell. During this time, he had tried to use the sword, but other than when he had unexpectedly used the hilt's mechanism to cut Qin Weiming's waist, he had only wrapped it around his waist. Because of this, the sword was too difficult to use. It was impossible to use it with normal sword techniques and internal force.

The blade of the Sword Of Hell was long and soft. Wang Yan originally wanted to use the whip technique, but he found that it was impossible. Although the Sword Of Hell was long and soft, the blade was wider than a normal long sword. It was thick in the middle and thin on both sides. This kind of sword was destined to be completely different from a whip. After all, in terms of whip techniques, a long whip was a circular strip. It was only when it was whipping that it was extremely fast. Once the whip was unfolded, whether it was sweeping horizontally or sideways, there was an obvious prelude to the force exerting. Even many whip techniques needed to curl up the whip and hold the front end in the hand. Once you wanted to violently lash out, you actually had to throw the front end of the whip out and then shake your hand to exert force.

This was the effect of the two forces added together. The Sword Of Hell was different. Firstly, it was impossible to hold the Sword Of Hell in one's hand when using it. It was too easy to accidentally injure someone. Moreover, the Sword Of Hell's blade was flat, and both sides of the blade were extremely thin. This caused the Sword Of Hell's speed to be extremely fast no matter if it was thrown sideways or swept horizontally. When the blade of the sword tore through the air, a slight carelessness could cause it to roll back to the user.

It was precisely because of these reasons that Wang Yan had been unable to use the Sword Of Hell. Now that he had mastered the Twisting Fingers Technique, he was able to use the sword as if it were his own arm. The nature of the soft Astral Qi made the strands of Astral Qi like Wang Yan's tentacles. Through the soft Astral Qi, he could change the Yama Sword between hard and soft at will. The soft Astral Qi tightened and the sword became hard, the soft Astral Qi loosened and the soft Astral Qi reappeared. He could even change the Yama Sword into one foot hard and one foot soft. The sword moves produced from such a hard and soft transformation were extremely strange, making it impossible to defend against.

Wang Yan himself was still somewhat uncertain about the power of the Soft Silk Gang Qi when using the Sword Of Hell, so he couldn't wait to find someone to test the sword on. After he left Cang Mountain, he first went to the agreed place with Cai Liao. After learning about Zhuge Chan's arrangements, he chose this Liangqiao Town. There was no other reason than that this place had the most players gathered. Among them were two Legend experts and several Nurturing Embryo Stage players. Wouldn't it be nice to test the sword and gain some experience at the same time?

However, the reality was not as he had hoped. Although Wang Yan had obtained 20,000 experience after Li Daohai and Long Xiaoyun's deaths, Zhou Shiying only gave him 3,000. As for the others, the difference was too great. Even after some Soothing Pulse Stage players died, Wang Yan only gained a little experience.

With Wang Yan's current cultivation and strength, Soothing Pulse Stage players could no longer provide him with nourishment. Even if a large number of low-level players gathered, for Wang Yan, it wouldn't mean much. The only people who could quickly increase his experience were Nurturing Embryo Stage players and Legend experts. Unfortunately, these people were as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns.

However, aside from gaining experience, the results of this sword test made Wang Yan very satisfied. Looking at this battle, Wang Yan had only used the Soft Silk Gang Qi and hadn't used any other unique skills, yet he was still able to cut down two Legend experts with his sword. Moreover, from start to finish, his feet hadn't moved even half a step. This was the endless power that came from the change between hard and soft.

However, using the Sword Of Hell in this way was not without its flaws. After all, the Sword Of Hell was too long. After attaching the soft Gang Qi to the entire sword, it consumed a lot of internal energy. Just like the battle just now, it only took a dozen breaths. However, with all of Wang Yan's forty years of pure internal energy, he still consumed about one-fifth of his internal energy in the battle. In other words, using the Sword Of Hell at such an intensity, even if Wang Yan exhausted his internal energy, he could only maintain it for a hundred breaths at most.

Apart from that, Wang Yan also felt that the Sword Of Hell was a little biased if he only used this method. After all, the changes in the Sword Of Hell only made use of the changes in hardness and softness, as well as the unparalleled sharpness of the Sword Of Hell itself. In particular, if he wanted to perfect this method into a sword technique, he still lacked the extremely important Divine Intent. At this thought, Bai Daoxin's figure appeared in Wang Yan's mind.

"If I can obtain the essence of Form and Will Martial Arts, I might be able to perfect a superior sword technique that specializes in using the Sword Of Hell."

Wang Yan's eyes flickered and a ball of fire rose in his heart. In an instant, a strong battle intent seeped out of his body. At this moment, Wang Yan was extremely eager to fight with Bai Daoxin!

It was a pity that Bai Daoxin was not here. At the moment, he still had to solve the difficult situation he was in. At this thought, Wang Yan looked outside the shop. The hundreds of people on the long street stared blankly at the dead Long Xiaoyun. These people could not imagine how Wang Yan killed two titled experts in just a dozen breaths. Even though many of them had witnessed the battle in the shop, they still could not figure it out.

However, Wang Yan did not care about what these people thought. He put the Sword Of Hell back into the sword belt on his waist and pulled out Luo Sha from his back. Luo Sha was more than enough to deal with these people. Moreover, this time, he was not just testing out the Sword Of Hell …

At this thought, Wang Yan tapped his foot on the ground and immediately rushed toward the hundreds of people outside the shop like a tiger charging into a flock of sheep.

After the time it took for a stick of incense to burn, on the long street outside the shop, Wang Yan stood in the middle of the street with his sword in hand. There was still blood on Luo Sha's blade, which was still warm and dripping along with the blade. There was no one else standing on the long street. The ground was covered with corpses. Among them were five Nurturing Embryo Stage players and dozens of Soothing Pulse Stage experts. The people who were still alive in the town all hid far away and only dared to sneak a glance in this direction.

Wang Yan did not sheathe his sword. Instead, he turned his head to look at the west side of the town. That was where the Twin Rock Sect, the local sect of Liangqiao Town, was located. Back in Huaiyang Market, he was chased away by Ling Long Manor. This time, he wanted to see if the Twin Rock Sect would intervene. Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from the west side of the town. The whole town was as quiet as a ghost town.

Seeing this, Wang Yan slowly sheathed his long sword. Then, after searching the bodies of Long Xiaoyun and the other Nurturing Embryo Stage players, he turned his head to look at Cai Liao, who was hiding in the shop, and then walked far away from the town.

Seeing that Wang Yan had left, Cai Liao walked out in fear. Although he had an agreement with Wang Yan, after witnessing Wang Yan's massacre, he was really afraid that Wang Yan would kill him on a whim. However, now that Wang Yan had left, this guy's mind became active again. Especially when Wang Yan had rushed out of the shop to kill, he had already looted all the corpses in the shop. Even Li Daohai was not spared. Now that he saw dozens of corpses outside the shop, his eyes couldn't help but shine.

However, just as this guy was about to make a move, he didn't expect to hear a voice.

"I'll wait for you at the Thirteen Mile Slope to the west of the town."

Hearing this voice, Cai Liao's body trembled. He immediately realized that it was Wang Yan's voice. Although Wang Yan had gone far away, he had used Voice Binding to inform Cai Liao to meet up with him through Secret Telepathy.

Cai Liao didn't dare to delay any longer. He was about to head out of the town, but when he saw the corpses all over the ground, he couldn't help but show some pity in his eyes. Then, he rolled his eyes and quietly hid in a corner of the shop. Then, he shouted, "Loot the corpses and make a fortune!"

As his voice spread far away, the people hiding in the surroundings immediately reacted. There was no lack of players among them, especially low-level ones. They were shocked by Wang Yan's massacre, but now that Wang Yan had gone far away and they received Cai Liao's reminder, many of them immediately became active. Soon, dozens of sneaky figures came out from both sides of the street and rushed toward the corpses on the street. Seeing this, Cai Liao smirked and blended into the crowd as he headed out of the town.

Cai Liao's martial arts were sloppy, and his Lightness Skill was also poor. The Thirteen Mile Slope was only a few dozen miles west of the town, but it took him a quarter of an hour to arrive. When he climbed up the slope and looked around for Wang Yan, he suddenly heard Wang Yan's voice from behind.

"When I first met you in Camel Fort, I didn't realize that you were full of evil tricks. You even did such a thing that harmed others without benefiting yourself."

Cai Liao suddenly turned around and saw Wang Yan standing four to five meters behind him. He then chuckled and said, "Those who died were all stronger than me. Dying once isn't enough for me to catch up to them. If I can make them suffer more losses, it'll be easier for me to catch up."

Cai Liao's words were spoken as if it was only natural. Wang Yan couldn't help but shake his head. In this Jianghu, whether it was players or NPCs, they would really do anything for fame or profit. It wasn't hard to understand why a rookie like Cai Liao would do such a thing for the sake of fame and profit.

Wang Yan also had no intention of questioning Cai Liao's way of surviving in this Jianghu. He just casually tossed a secret manual to Cai Liao and said, "I found this on Long Xiaoyun. Consider it as a reward for passing on the information."

"Secret Finger Seal Technique, Yellow Grade High Grade Secret Technique!"

Looking at the secret manual in his hand, Cai Liao sucked in a breath of cold air and cried out in surprise. Not to mention Yellow Grade High Grade Martial Arts, it was difficult for a farmer like him to even obtain a Middle Grade Martial Art. However, his expression immediately turned bitter as he said, "I don't have enough comprehension, so I can't cultivate it."

Wang Yan had flipped through this secret manual before. It could be considered a top-notch Secret Technique that aided in the cultivation of finger techniques. Therefore, even though it was only a Yellow Grade High Grade Secret Technique, it required a high level of comprehension. Presumably, this was also why Long Xiaoyun was temporarily unable to cultivate it and kept it on him.

"The higher the requirement for comprehension, the stronger the Secret Technique in the secret manual. As for whether or not you can cultivate it, it'll depend on your methods and luck."

Cai Liao was a smart person. Once he heard Wang Yan's words, he immediately reacted and said, "Brother Wang, is there anything else you need me to do?"

Just passing on a message in exchange for a Yellow Grade High Grade Secret Technique, Cai Liao naturally felt that following Wang Yan would be a great reward. He didn't care whether Wang Yan was an NPC or not, and immediately called him "Brother Wang, Brother Wang". Seeing this, Wang Yan didn't waste any more time and said, "I want you to lure Rao Yu out."
