Venerable Swordsman Bi Xiao's voice sounded as if it came from another world. Layer by layer, it finally reached Søren who was in deep meditation.
Of course, this was only possible because Venerable Swordsman Bi Xiao used his powerful mental energy to wake him up. If it were anyone else, they would not be able to wake someone in deep meditation even if they shouted until their throat broke.
Søren woke up and bowed to Venerable Swordsman Bi Xiao. "Thank you for teaching me the Way of the Sword, senior."
Venerable Swordsman Bi Xiao waved his hand. "No need. I also want to see if you can do what I can't."
He said that what he couldn't do was to protect his family's territory and foundation. It was for this reason that he helped Søren without any conditions.
Just like Søren said, no feudal lord would willingly give up his territory.
Although Søren did not know why Bi Xiao would give up his territory, he was sure that it was not because he was obsessed with the Way of the Sword as the rumors said.
If that was the case, why did he never enter Royal City or visit the king after he gave up his territory?
"Let's begin," Bi Xiao said.
Then, he picked up the wooden sword next to him and gently made a sword gesture.
In an instant, the decrepit aura on his body disappeared completely. It was replaced by a figure full of sword will.
"The Nine Swords of Disaster is the most difficult sword technique in the world," Bi Xiao said. "The Nine Swords of Disaster is the most difficult sword technique in the world. Next, I'll perform the Nine Swords of Disaster as fast as I can. See how much you can remember. "
"Yes," Søren said.
As soon as he finished speaking, his vision blurred.
Venerable Swordsman Bi Xiao disappeared in an instant. It was replaced by an immortal-like figure that flew around the cave like a shadow.
Even the entire cave disappeared.
This was because the cave was very narrow, but in this sword technique, it seemed to have become a vast world.
It was as if there was only one figure and one sword in the world.
This sword technique, of course, was like the dance steps of a celestial being. It was breathtaking, beautiful, and gorgeous.
Every movement seemed to have reached the pinnacle of physical aesthetics.
Just from the movement alone, it could even reach the point where it could shock the heavens and the earth and make ghosts and gods cry.
However, it was too fast. From start to finish, it did not take more than ten seconds for the Nine Swords of Disaster to end.
After the sword technique ended, it was as if there were countless phantoms, which finally condensed into Honorable Swordsman Bi Xiao.
"How is it?" Bi Xiao asked.
On the other hand, Søren was flabbergasted. He muttered to himself, "This, this doesn't look like a sword technique at all. It looks like the dance of immortals, or the wild dance of demons. In this world, there is actually such … an exquisite sword technique. "
Bi Xiao said, "Anyone in the world who sees this sword technique for the first time would have the same reaction as you. You don't know how many swordsmen have been completely addicted to the Sword Dao because of this sword technique."
Søren understood that on this day, it was just like how countless people became addicted to dancing after seeing Michael Jackson's moonwalk.
Another example is that countless people fell in love with basketball because they saw Michael Jordan's flying dunks on TV.
Bi Xiao said, "This Nine Swords of Disaster is completely used to show off and train one's meridians. It's not suitable for combat. However, it's still known as the world's best sword technique because it's the most difficult and magnificent. It's also the best way to display a person's swordsmanship. "
Perhaps this feeling was similar to a pianist who swore in his heart when he first started practicing to play the Death Waltz, a piece that defied human anatomy and was almost impossible to play.
Another example would be some mathematics enthusiasts who swore in their heart when they first started learning to solve Goldbach's conjecture because it was the jewel in the crown of mathematics.
…
"So how many of the nine moves and eighty-one moves did you remember?" Bi Xiao asked.
Søren was stunned. "I was completely stunned. It was as if I saw the dance of immortals, so I didn't bother to remember it."
Bi Xiao said, "Then I'll perform it again, but at twice the speed."
Then, Bi Xiao turned into the shadow of an immortal again and performed the Nine Swords of Disaster again.
This time, Søren opened his eyes wide and tried his best to see each move clearly.
However, it was still too fast. In less than twenty seconds, the nine moves and eighty-one moves were over.
"This time, how much did you remember?" Bi Xiao asked.
"About, less than ten percent," Søren said.
Bi Xiao said, "I'll perform it for the third time, and again at twice the speed."
So, Bi Xiao performed the Nine Swords of Disaster again. It was still amazing and unparalleled swordsmanship. However, this time, the speed was four times slower than before. It took almost a minute to complete.
"Now, how much did you remember?" Bi Xiao asked.
"Thirty percent," Søren said, "but …"
"Don't say anything. Wait until you've memorized everything," Bi Xiao said.
Then, he performed it for the fourth time, fifth time, sixth time, seventh time …
The speed was getting slower and slower.
By the ninth time, it was already very slow. It took a full five minutes to complete the entire set of Nine Swords of Disaster. It was like slow motion in a movie.
"Now, how much did you remember?" Bi Xiao asked.
On the other hand, Søren was almost going crazy. He could not remember anything at all. His mind was a mess.
Because … because this damned Nine Disaster Swords was different every time it was used.
That's right, every time he used it, it was different. This was really strange.
No wonder there was no so-called sword manual for this swordsmanship. It could only be passed down. He was very suspicious now. Who created this swordsmanship? If it was not a genius, it was a monster.
Søren said, "I can't remember it at all because it's different every time."
"That's right, this is the Nine Swords of Disaster. Otherwise, why would it be the most difficult swordsmanship in the world? Because it's different every time. "
Søren said, "Although the sword moves are different on the surface every time, the feeling it gives is the same. It's like a piece of music played with different instruments, or played with different pitches. "
"Yes, so if you want to learn the Nine Swords of Disaster, you have to comprehend it. It's useless to just look at the sword moves on the surface. You have to comprehend it with your heart and spirit."
"How do I comprehend it?" Søren asked.
Bi Xiao said, "First, find the core of the swordsmanship and find the pattern of the changes."
Søren said, "Then how do I find the pattern of the changes?"
"Keep looking, keep looking, keep looking," Bi Xiao said, "Even if it's different every time, it can't be infinite. In fact, this swordsmanship has a total of ninety-nine changes. After ninety-nine changes, the cycle begins. Now, I will display all of the Ninety-Nine Transformations. You better remember this. "
"Yes!" Søren said.
Bi Xiao said, "You have to be mentally prepared. Just memorizing the ninety-nine changes will take a very long time. The lower your spirit talent, the longer it will take."
Then, Søren gathered all his spirit and stared at Bi Xiao motionlessly.
Just like that, he demonstrated it again and again.
Ninety-nine changes formed a cycle.
By the time the ninety-nine changes finished, four hours had already passed.
If it continued like this, it would take at least three to five days to completely memorize the ninety-nine changes.
And Søren only had nine days left.
After the first cycle of ninety-nine changes, Bi Xiao said, "I will demonstrate the second cycle. If your spirit talent is high enough, you might be able to completely memorize it in five days and find the pattern of the changes. As for the remaining time, it might not be enough to finish learning this swordsmanship, even if you are in a deep level of meditation. "
"No need, I have memorized it all," Søren said.
Bi Xiao said in shock, "That's impossible. No matter how high one's spirit talent is, he would need at least four to five days to find the pattern after a few cycles of reincarnation."
Could Søren memorize just one cycle of ninety-nine changes? Of course not.
But he had Eros.
Eros had a kind of forced memory, like a video recorder. It forced the entire scene into Søren's mind and allowed him to flip through it continuously.
It was like a computer's hard drive could store everything in one go if the human brain could not remember it all at once.
After memorizing the ninety-nine changes of the Nine Disaster Swords, Søren once again entered a deep level of meditation.
In the meditation world, time was slowed down countless times.
He looked at the ninety-nine changes of the Nine Disaster Swords over and over again.
Dozens of times, hundreds of times. In the end, it took him more than half a month in the meditation world to completely memorize the ninety-nine changes.
Then, he began to understand the pattern of the changes.
This required a much longer time. It was like a huge pile of numbers in reality, thousands or tens of thousands, which looked completely messy.
However, after a thorough study, one would discover a certain pattern hidden within.
Once this pattern was discovered, everything would be easily solved. It was like the password book of a telegram being grasped by someone. No matter how difficult or complicated a secret message was, it could be instantly deciphered.
Understanding, understanding, understanding …
After countless experiences of understanding, Bi Xiao could actually tell him the answer directly. This was because the core of the Nine Disaster Swords had a clear answer.
Finally, in the meditation world, Søren closed his eyes.
He completely overlapped the figures of the ninety-nine changes of the sword.
Then, he removed all the figures, leaving only the sword tip. Then, he removed all the figures, leaving only the sword tip.
Nine moves and eighty-one forms multiplied by the ninety-nine changes. This meant that the sword tip stabbed the air more than eight thousand times, leaving more than eight thousand points in the air.
When these eight thousand points were combined, it turned out to be a word.
Seeing this word, Søren's body trembled. From the bottom of his heart to the top of his head, his hair stood on end.
This was because this word was' mausoleum '!
That's right, it was Lan Ling's mausoleum!
Was this a coincidence? Or was there another reason?
The entire Nine Disaster Swords, nine moves and eighty-one forms, ninety-nine changes of a reincarnation, actually used the sword tip to write the word 'mausoleum' in the air.
Søren immediately woke up from his meditation and asked Bi Xiao, "The core of the Nine Disaster Swords is to write the word 'mausoleum'?"
Bi Xiao nodded. "That's right. It only took half a day for you to understand it. It's really amazing."
Søren's voice trembled. "Who created this sword technique? Why is it written with the word 'mausoleum'? "
Bi Xiao said, "This is a mystery. There is no manual for this sword technique, and no one knows who created it. We don't even know how it was passed down. In short, it's the most magnificent and difficult sword technique, and it was passed down just like that. The person who created this sword technique made it so difficult and magnificent, but that's not his main purpose. His purpose seems to be to tell everyone one word, 'mausoleum'! "
Søren's heart trembled again. Could this mausoleum be him? It can't be.
"No one knows the reason. This has been the biggest mystery in the martial arts world for thousands of years." Bi Xiao continued, "No one knows what the person who created this sword technique is trying to tell people."
Søren asked, "Is there a second or third sword technique for this sword technique?"
Bi Xiao said, "I heard there is, but … it's been sealed by the Dragon Temple. So far, only the first sword technique has been circulated. "
Søren's heart trembled. Was this just a coincidence?
Or was the person who created this sword technique really looking for him? What was he trying to tell him?
Then, the information he gave was that in the second and third sword techniques?
But no matter what? This mystery had to be solved in the future.
Now, the most important thing was to learn the entire set of Nine Disaster Swords in the shortest time possible, and then defeat Gui Qinshao.
Temporarily putting aside all distracting thoughts, Søren once again entered meditation.
This was because he had understood the core rules of this sword technique. Next, he could practice it in actual combat.
In the meditation world, Søren practiced over and over again.
Then, he realized just how difficult and perverse this sword technique was.
This was because it completely defied the laws of the human body. Any movement, any technique, must first understand the internal meridian airflow, and understand the internal sword intent.
Otherwise, if it was forcefully completed, there would only be one result — the meridian would be broken.
Søren deeply felt that the person who created this sword technique was the strongest genius in history. A genius who was ten times, no, a hundred times better than Søren.
Putting aside the fact that the information was hidden in the sword technique, the key point was that this sword technique was so difficult, so complicated, and so mysterious.
No wonder Bi Xiao said that as long as one mastered this sword technique, other sword techniques would not be a problem.
It was no wonder that this sword technique was not suitable for combat. It was more suitable for performance. But … it was a benchmark to measure one's swordsmanship. That was why countless people would go crazy for it.
Søren comprehended and practiced at the same time.
Once, ten times, a hundred times, a thousand times, ten thousand times, a hundred thousand times …
In the meditation world, time passed quickly.
One month, half a year, one year, two years, three years …
The first move was completed, the second move was completed, the third move …
In reality, time passed day by day.
Suddenly, one day, Søren opened his eyes. There were still three days before his duel with Gui Qinshao.
