It was just a normal slash!
There was no lightning, no howling wind, no tearing of space, no burning of the air.
There wasn't even any qi!
The Blade Monarch's slash had no qi flow, wasn't this the biggest joke in the world?
How could one injure someone without qi flow? How could one defeat the enemy without qi flow?
It was like a woodcutter chopping firewood or a boorish man hoeing the ground. Their object was to cut the log in two, and to soften the hard ground.
That was all!
Therefore, there was no need for strength!
A simple slash!
Slash, straight slash!
No fancy movements, no complicated foreshadowing. If I want to slash you, I'll slash you.
It was that direct, that willful.
"This slash is called Chopping Firewood," the Blade Monarch said in a low voice.
His voice was as slow and deep as the speed at which he swung his saber.
It was as heavy as a thousand-pound boulder pressing on one's chest, making it difficult to breathe.
He took a step forward and slashed.
This was the Blade Monarch's entire attack method.
Even the name of his slash technique was simple and ordinary. It wasn't as impressive as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms or the Nine Yin Manual's Heaven and Earth Great Shift, which sounded like an awesome move. Just say the name and all the bandits, bullies, and thieves within a ten-mile radius would immediately leave without a trace. It wasn't as elegant as the Melancholic Sorrow Palm or the Lover's Will Sword, which made one's imagination run wild.
Chopping firewood!
Who came up with this name? If you're so perfunctory, I promise I won't beat you to death.
Fang Yan didn't know the origin of the Blade Manual, so he didn't know why the name "Chopping Firewood" was used to name a slash technique.
He just felt that the person who came up with this name was uncultured.
Fang Yan's guess was right, the person who created this slash technique and named it was uncultured.
"Chopping firewood — —" Xiu Mu laughed and said: "Fortunately, my Arhat Fist is related to Arhat, so it sounds domineering and unconventional — — why isn't it called Chopping Vegetables?"
"There is indeed a Chopping Vegetable Technique," Kongzhu said in a low voice.
"Really?" Xiu Mu was shocked. "What kind of martial arts did this Saber Monarch learn? I heard that he used the Luo family's Falling Rain Knife, which was passed down in his family. When he waved the knife, it was like falling rain splashing, airtight. How did he become a chef now? "
"Saber Monarch hasn't appeared for more than twenty years. Where do you think he went?"
"Where did he go?"
"He obtained the 'Saber Manual' of the Saber King, Li Big Mouth. For the past twenty years, he has been practicing the saber in seclusion —"
"Saber King Li Big Mouth?" Xiu Mu was shocked. "The chef from prison?"
"Yes, it's exactly the Knife King Li Big Mouth who came out of prison." Kongzhu nodded his head with a dignified expression. "Li Big Mouth is a chef in the Hate Mountain Prison. He has been cooking for the prisoners in the prison all his life. But because his father was a secular disciple of Shaolin Temple, he established the foundation of Shaolin Temple's hard martial arts since he was young, and he also came into contact with some strange masters and bandits. He chopped firewood and chopped vegetables every day for decades, and he actually created an invincible saber technique … "
After a pause, Kongzhu said with a serious expression, "Do you still remember the best archery in the world?"
"Archer God Tang Lie?"
"Not bad. It was Archer God Tang Lie. At that time, everyone thought that Archer God Tang Lie was the number one expert in the Hate Mountain. They didn't even know who Li Big Mouth was — once, Archer God went to the kitchen to inspect the work and saw Li Big Mouth's saber technique when he chopped vegetables. He was immediately deeply shocked. "
"And then?" The man in black behind him asked.
"The noise of the big saber is like a torrential downpour, the cutting of the small saber is like a whisper. The noise of the cutting is like a mess of bullets, the big and small pearls fall on a jade plate. The silver bottle is broken, the liquid is splashed, the iron horse is galloping, the saber and spear are howling. When the song ends, the sound of the saber is like silk being torn apart. This was Archer God Tang Lie's evaluation of Li Big Mouth's saber technique — Tang Lie was delighted and asked Li Big Mouth to have a match with him. "
"Did Li Big Mouth win?"
"Li Big Mouth didn't win," Kongzhu said.
"He still lost? Archer God is Archer God, "Xiu Mu said with a sigh. "It's a pity that I didn't have the chance to meet Archer God. Otherwise, I would definitely have a taste of his magical archery —"
"Li Big Mouth didn't lose either," Kongzhu said.
Xiu Mu's bad temper flared up again as he grumbled, "One moment you say Li Big Mouth didn't win, the next moment you say Li Big Mouth didn't lose — did he win or lose?"
"He didn't win or lose," Kongzhu said. "Li Big Mouth knew Archer God Tang Lie's strength, so how would he dare to fight with him? So Tang Lie said to Li Big Mouth that they were just casually sparring and didn't know how to use arrows. "
"In the end, Archer God used arrows?" The man in black asked.
"Yes, Li Big Mouth's saber technique forced Archer God Tang Lie to use arrows." Kongzhu nodded. "Tang Lie used arrows to subdue Li Big Mouth. He forced him to retreat. "
"How do you know these things?" Xiu Mu asked. "Why don't I know?"
"Because someone saw Tang Lie, and Tang Lie said it himself," Kongzhu said. "Archer God Tang Lie knew of Li Big Mouth's strength, so he began to guide him to develop his saber technique, and made him organize his saber technique and name it —"
"Li Big Mouth didn't study much, so how could he do such a thing? After spending a few months, he finally thought of a way — "
"What way?"
"His saber technique only had three moves. One was a straight chop, named Chopping Firewood. This move was comprehended from his many years of chopping firewood. "
"The second move was a horizontal chop, named Chopping Vegetables. This move was comprehended from chopping cabbages for more than thirty years. The last move was an upward or downward slash, and he named it — Eviscerate. It was trained from his daily practice of removing the bones of animals or the meat in the cracks of bones — he only had these three moves, but he was invincible with these three moves, and became the Saber King of his generation. "
Xiu Mu pointed at the Lord of Saber Luo Jin and asked, "Then why did he slash out five times just now? Why could he slash out another five times? "
"For the previous five slashes, he used his family's Falling Rain Saber Technique, or rather, the Falling Rain Saber Technique that was integrated with the unique technique of the 'Saber Manual' — obviously, those five slashes didn't cut this kid into two. What he used now was the true unique technique of the 'Saber Manual'. "
"Even so —" The black-clothed man behind him said, "There are only three moves in the 'Saber Manual', how could he slash out five times?"
"That is unknown." Kongzhu was a little annoyed by these two people's questions, and said, "It is possible that Li Big Mouth had other moves that were not recorded in the 'Saber Manual', or it could be a saber technique that the Lord of Saber Luo Jin created after living in seclusion for more than twenty years — who would know such a secret?"
Xiu Mu laughed coldly, and said, "I hope Luo Jin's saber isn't too sharp. If he cleanly chopped Fang Yan into pieces, I wouldn't have the chance to make a move —"
Kongzhu coldly glanced at his little brother, and said, "Watch the battle carefully —"
"—"
From their point of view, this time, Fang Yan would die without a doubt.
It was also because of this reason that they could still chat and talk about the secrets of the Jianghu in this kind of life and death battlefield.
If it was anyone else who dared to so casually raise a long black saber and slash at him, Fang Yan would have already rushed forward and slapped that person in the face, and cursed, "Are you sick? If you're sick, go back and get treated. "
But, this person was the Lord of Sabers.
Although his saber was not beautiful, and the name of his saber technique was not flashy, this person was the Lord of Sabers. He was a saber expert who had been famous for decades.
Fang Yan had no choice but to be careful!
When he walked towards him, Fang Yan was already on guard. His legs spread apart, his body slightly bowed, and his body swayed left and right, making a 'roly-poly toy' posture.
When the Lord of Sabers slashed out with his saber, Fang Yan felt that this saber technique was even more strange.
It was too strange. Even the most useless member of the Fang family, Fang Yingxiong, could easily subdue it with brute force or skillful attacks without the use of Qi. Perhaps even the most useless member of the Fang family, Fang Yingxiong, could easily defeat it.
Fang Yan could completely avoid this saber, and he could use Drunken Crane Riding the Wind to deal with it, making it impossible for the Lord to find his real body.
But, Fang Yan didn't do this.
The Taiji Heart made his five senses extremely sharp, and there was a voice in his heart telling him not to do such a thing.
Fang Yan didn't dodge, his body moved, and he faced the Lord of Sabers head-on.
Facing the saber with both hands, it looked extremely stupid.
The Lord of Sabers' eyes slightly trembled, and a trace of doubt flashed on his face.
Then, his expression became even colder, and the strength of his saber became even fiercer.
The long saber arrived in an instant!
Apart from the blunt wind brought by the heavy blade, there was still no abnormality.
He still couldn't feel a trace of energy.
Not even a trace of killing intent.
Fang Yan's body entered the range of the long saber, he wanted to use his speed advantage to enter the blind spot of the Lord of Sabers.
The human body's organs were fixed, and the range of movement was also limited. Therefore, everyone's body had some blind spots that were hard to reach.
For example, your back, your ribs, or any other place.
When the Lord of Sabers fiercely slashed, his chest was the blind spot.
Because if he stretched out his arm and raised the long saber, he wouldn't be able to use his arm and the long saber to protect his chest.
Therefore, Fang Yan wanted to give him a fatal blow there.
This was the attack route that he had already calculated.
Everything went as he expected, no, it was even smoother than he had imagined.
He easily entered the blind spot, and his fist was already aimed at the Lord of Sabers' heart.
As long as his fist hit the Lord of Sabers' heart, the Lord of Sabers' heart might be blasted out of his body.
Whoosh —
Fang Yan suddenly sensed danger.
He felt a piercingly cold killing intent coming at him.
All the pores on his body stood up, and he could feel his heart beating violently.
A majestic killing intent came at him.
It locked onto him from all directions.
Fang Yan was like a puppet whose acupoints had been sealed, or a magician had cast a spell on him. He couldn't move his body at all.
Fang Yan finally understood that this was a scam.
This was the biggest scam!
