Immortality begins with the sword of ignorance

Chapter 68 Flying Sword·Thunder

Faced with Yan Lingwei's arrogant remarks, Zhong Cang wanted to continue to be tough, but the five-color lotus seeds in front of him were so fragrant.

If he acquires these five lotus seeds, Zhong Cang will not only shorten his training time by one year, but his probability of being recruited into the inner sect and finding a good master will also at least double.

At this critical moment in life, sending such a great gift can be called a timely help.

This also made Zhong Cang understand that he owed her a favor.

Although, Zhong Cang, who knows how to be grateful, has no intention of taking it for free. He has decided to repay this favor and resources three times or even ten times afterwards.

But providing help in times of need is also a huge favor.

"I accept your investment, and I will repay it tenfold in the future... Wait, you won't let me help you deal with the Flame Spirit Butterfly, will you?"

Zhong Cang, who was about to accept it, thought of something and couldn't help but ask Yan Lingwei.

In response, she snorted coldly.

"In your eyes, am I such a despicable person?"

After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Cang still nodded without violating his original intention.

Such a response instantly made Yan Lingwei's chest hurt with anger.

"You bastard, can't you say something nice!"

"..."

"..."

As soon as Zhong Cang and Yan Lingwei said something hesitantly because they were angry, their eyes widened and they didn't know what to say.

Finally, it was Yan Lingwei's maid Xiaochan who reacted after a while, breaking the awkward atmosphere between the two.

"Miss, you just admitted that you are a villain..."

"Snapped!"

"You're the only one who talks too much."

After bullying Xiao Chan, Yan Lingwei, who regained her composure, fiddled with her hair and said to Zhong Cang as if nothing had happened: "Don't worry, my stupid sister is no match for me. I don't need you. I can also suppress her with my backhand."

"……as long as you are happy."

...

After agreeing with Yan Lingwei not to interfere with the competition between the direct descendants of the Yan family, Zhong Cang accepted her investment.

While Zhong Cang was putting away the five-color lotus seeds, Yan Lingwei opened another wooden box.

There was a flying sword placed inside, with the word 'Thunder' engraved on the blade.

In Zhong Cang's perception, this flying sword is no weaker than Fenghua.

Yan Lingwei's introduction made Zhong Cang confirm this point.

"This is a middle-grade thunder-based flying sword (magic weapon). The whole body of the flying sword is made of thunder meteorite iron. The sword is engraved with a thunder array, and the wind and thunder are integrated. This flying sword matches your Fenghua very well. Take it Come on."

She handed the flying sword to Zhong Cang, but Zhong Cang was not a greedy person, so after putting away the five-color lotus seeds, he declined Yan Lingwei's kindness.

"No, I just want the five-color lotus seeds. You can take this flying sword back..."

"Um?!!"

Zhong Cang, who refused, couldn't help but pause in the middle of his words.

——When he accepted the five-color lotus seeds and rejected the flying sword and thunder, he was surprised to find that Yan Lingwei's face turned gloomy.

That terrifying look gave Zhong Cang the feeling that she was going to stab him.

This scene made Zhong Cang confused.

‘That’s not the case, is it? I have accepted your kindness, but I just don’t want to be greedy and take it all? Is this obviously for your own good? '

Zhong Cang didn't understand why Yan Lingwei was so unhappy when she refused to fly the sword, which was obviously beneficial to her.

Just when he was puzzled, Yan Lingwei's voice sounded faintly.

"Haha, isn't Jing Lei bad? I'm really sorry. I prepared a gift you don't like..."

Seeing that the air pressure around Yan Lingwei was getting lower and lower, and her voice was extremely eerie, and she seemed to be turning into a female ghost, Zhong Cang quickly waved his hands and said.

"Ahem, you misunderstood. I like this flying sword very much."

"Haha, don't force yourself."

"Not forced, not forced at all."

Although he didn't know why Yan Lingwei behaved so strangely, Zhong Cang had a hunch that if he only took the five-color lotus seeds and gave up the flying sword and thunder, he would never feel better in the next period of time.

Not wanting to end up in this situation, Zhong Cang could only hold Feijian Jinglei in his hands with tears in his eyes.

"Crack!"

Flying Sword and Thunder is a pure new long sword that has not been stained by anyone’s mark.

Zhong Cang had another man and sword united into one, which made Zhong Cang feel like he was connected to Jing Lei's hands and feet as soon as he held it.

This is manifested in the outside world, that is, as soon as Zhong Cang holds Jing Lei, fine thunder will light up on Zhong Cang and Feijian.

In addition to the integration of man and sword, Zhong Cang also possesses innate spells and the five thunders in his palm.

"Zizi..."

As Zhong Cang activated his innate magic, the connection between the two became deeper.

After a few breaths, when Zhong Cang let go of the flying sword, Jing Lei did not fall to the ground, but circled around Zhong Cang flexibly.

Such an arm-like command makes Feijian Jinglei and Zhong Cang a perfect match, and this also makes Yan Lingwei reveal a smile on her lips.

She was smiling, and there was a wry smile on Zhong Cang's lips.

"This favor is hugely owed."

Of course, apart from the wry smile, Zhong Cang's face was more filled with joy and confidence.

With Five Colored Lotus Seeds and Feijian Jinglei, Zhong Cang's confidence in entering the inner gate has changed from 50% to 100% during this outer court competition.

He was convinced that this time the inner sect would have its own place.

Zhong Cang is more confident that after entering the inner gate, he will be able to repay Yan Lingwei's kindness.

"Your investment will never fail."

"Hehe, I'm just looking forward to it, young lady."

At this time, the two of them were enjoying each other happily.

However, such a harmonious atmosphere only lasts for a while.

When Yan Lingwei left the training ground, her face was ashen and her chest was heaving.

Obviously, she was very angry.

This is not because there is any conflict between Zhong Cang and Yan Lingwei.

But after obtaining the flying sword and thunder, Zhong Cang was eager to try it, and Yan Lingwei also wanted to see what kind of power the middle-grade flying sword could exert in Zhong Cang's hands.

Therefore, after Zhong Cang got used to the flying sword and thunder, and let it be used like an arm, the two synesthetically entered the ring and started sparring again.

Then, Yan Lingwei was tortured.

And this time, she was defeated extremely miserably.

For sword cultivators, in the middle and late stages of Qi training, although holding a sword is more flexible than holding it, due to lack of spiritual consciousness, the magic power has not yet qualitatively changed. This method of attack has a huge flaw - lack of power.

During the Qi refining stage, attacking with a sword is far inferior to slashing with all the strength of the whole body.

Therefore, when using Fenghua's sword, even if Zhong Cang followed the weak points of the rhythm, he could not cut away the Huangyan Tianling on Yan Lingwei's body with one blow.

However, when Zhong Cang's flying sword changed from maple flower to thunder, everything changed.

Jing Lei is tougher and sharper than Feng Hua.

But these are nothing. What makes Zhong Cang's attack qualitatively change is the thunder formation engraved on the Thunder Sword.

By activating this formation, Flying Sword and Thunder will surge in speed in a short period of time under the stimulation of thunder.

And as we all know, speed is power.

There is another saying: All martial arts in the world are invincible, except speed.

The combination of the two is like a flash of thunder and the battle is over.

Of course, normally, Yan Lingwei shouldn't have been defeated so quickly, even if there was thunder.

The magic power is so weak that it takes several minutes for Zhong Cang to activate the thunder.

Therefore, if he wants the thunder to be most effective, Zhong Cang needs to test it first before unleashing a thunderous strike.

In this way, we can defeat the enemy and win instead of letting this shocking blow go to waste.

However, Zhong Cang was too familiar with Yan Lingwei.

This kind of familiarity allows Zhong Cang to skip the foreplay and get straight to the point.

At the same time, this battle also made Zhong Cang realize how terrifying the sword cultivator was.

"The ultimate speed, coupled with the ultimate attack, makes it impossible for any monk to reveal a flaw in front of me. As long as it is slightly exposed, I can rely on the extreme speed of the sword to kill."

"This is still the case now. If I understand the thunder sound of swordsmanship, ordinary enemies may be beheaded by me before they even react, or if they react but have no time to release the spell!"

"It's so terrifying. No wonder the world says that a true swordsman should not be messed with."

After sighing with emotion at the power of sword cultivation, Zhong Cang went to practice obediently.

No matter how strong the sword cultivator is, he can only fight against enemies across small realms, and it is difficult to cross over into large realms. Therefore, for monks, cultivation is the foundation.

The five-color lotus seeds can save Zhong Cang from a full year of hard training. At this time, he really wants to see the scenery of the fifth level of Qi training.

PS: It’s indeed a bit delayed. I’ve advanced to the fifth level of Qi training and will have a competition in the outer courtyard right away. . . .

Also, thank you to reader 1660561898621050880 for the tip. I originally wanted to continue to add updates as usual, but the editor told me that this book will be on the shelves soon and cannot add more. I can only remember to add updates this time.
