Chapter 49: I Also Danced with Swords While Drunk·Thirteen
There was no need for Xiao Hao to delay for so long. He was full of energy the next day. The helicopter box obtained by unlocking the progress achievement also helped him reach the maximum level directly. Without the debuff that reduced the upper limit of internal strength, he was in a very good state now.
Huang Yaoshi and others thought that he had turned a disaster into a blessing. Although he lost all his internal strength due to poisoning, his realm did not decline but improved after regaining his strength. He was even better than before, and they couldn't help but be very happy.
Xiao Hao realized that his mission progress was less than 30%, and he guessed the problem after a little thought. He is now the most eye-catching young genius in the world, with outstanding talent and favor from the top. If there is anything missing, it is only one thing -
the Nine Yin Manual.
This martial arts secret book that all martial artists want to possess must be his last hurdle.
The one who gets this book will be the best in the world, and his position in the eyes of the martial arts world will not be shaken for at least ten years.
Xiao Hao is now at the same level as Wang Chongyang. If they really fight, the odds of winning or losing should be fifty-fifty. He is not completely sure, but he thinks it's worth a try.
It just so happens that he also wants to do something for his master. If he can successfully obtain the Nine Yin Manual this time, his master will not have to deceive Zhou Botong in the future, and he can also save his master's wife, whom he has never met, from a disaster. When
the Huashan Sword Contest, his level was still low and he did not have the qualifications to participate in the sword contest. Now the sword contest has just ended for a few months, and he can't wait for more than 20 years to participate in the sword contest again. However, there is one rule that everyone tacitly accepts: the Nine Yin Scriptures should fall into the hands of the best person in the world. As long as he defeats Wang Chongyang, the scripture will naturally belong to Peach Blossom Island.
"Hao'er has just recovered from a serious illness. In recent days, I feel that I have gained a lot in martial arts. I can't help but want to challenge the real person. If the real person doesn't mind, can you help Hao'er and let me try my current proficiency?"
Wang Chongyang stroked his beard and smiled, "You clever guy, what are you planning? I see that you are not asking for advice, but really want to please your master."
Xiao Hao stuck out his tongue and said with a smile, "You can't hide anything from the real person! The real person is now the best in the world. How could he be afraid of a little guy like me? Let's compete and stop when we are satisfied!"
He turned and said, "However, if I challenge the real person and the real person wins, outsiders will say that the real person won unfairly because of my young age; if I lose to me unexpectedly, the real person will lose face again. "So if the real person is unwilling to compete with me, Hao'er will not be embarrassed."
Wang Chongyang said: "That's fine. I am now a man with one foot in the coffin. In the Central Plains, the only one who can restrain Ouyang Feng in the next generation is you, a little guy. There are talented people in every generation, and the waves behind push the waves ahead. In my early years, I was young and arrogant. Although I have the false title of the best in the world, I also know that there will always be higher levels after I grow older. "He seemed to remember something, and his face showed a little shame: "Since the sword fight, I have taught my disciples to be humble. If I really lose to you in martial arts, I will never deny it."
Xiao Hao was delighted to hear this. Wang Chongyang was planning to compete with him.
Wang Chongyang said, "Since you have challenged me, I will not show mercy. I will show my true strength to you. If you win, you can take the Nine Yin Manual."
"That's great!" Xiao Hao wanted to win in an upright manner. If Wang Chongyang deliberately let him win, he would not want the manual. He had Wang Chongyang's permission, so he had to act uprightly and not give people a chance to talk about him. So he said, "I will not take advantage of the real master. Three days later, we will have a showdown in front of the Sutra Platform in Chongyang Palace."
*
It was a sunny day with clear skies. Huang Yaoshi, Hong Qi, and Zhou Botong all came to watch the fight. They thought Xiao Hao was just a newborn who was not afraid of tigers, and did not hold any hope for him to defeat Wang Chongyang. They wanted to see how much his martial arts improved after he recovered.
Even his master Huang Yaoshi thought he couldn't beat Wang Chongyang, so as Huang Yaoshi's apprentice, what chances could he have of winning?
How could Xiao Hao not know what they were thinking? However, he would only know if he could succeed after the fight.
He chose Wang Chongyang as his target and put up a black flag in front of him:
"Such a beautiful day, why don't we fight to relieve our worries!"
Wang Chongyang stroked his beard and made a "please" gesture to Xiao Hao.
Xiao Hao knew that he was taking care of his young age and letting him make the first move, so he didn't bother to be polite with him. He raised his hand and gave himself an explosion, and then broke it with a sword.
Wang Chongyang's Quanzhen swordsmanship was very sticky, and he didn't want Wang Chongyang to get close to him, so it was best to keep a distance from him.
Wang Chongyang had seen him use this move against Ouyang Feng, so he was prepared. When he realized that his internal energy was blocked, he immediately gave up using internal energy to fight back, and instead tried to win with his moves, raising his sword and making a sword flower to meet him. Xiao Hao was far away from him and refused to approach, obviously wanting to gain an advantage by using his external sword energy. Wang Chongyang had a lot of experience in fighting, and after realizing this, he took two steps in three steps and ran to Xiao Hao in the blink of an eye.
Xiao Hao jumped back to avoid his oncoming sword, but before he could use the sword shadow to push him away, Wang Chongyang changed his moves, and his sword was as fast as lightning, attacking and defending at the same time, stabbing him tightly.
Skills are rigid procedures after all. As soon as Xiao Hao made his opening move, Wang Chongyang could tell which move he was going to use. Xiao Hao knew that he could only use some moves that he had never seen before. While thinking quickly, he turned around and used Butterfly Foot to distance himself from him again.
In order to prevent Wang Chongyang from catching up, he used Sword Master Heaven and Earth. Wang Chongyang's steps suddenly sank. Those who didn't know would think that he had suffered a loss.
This intersection of figures happened very quickly. In just a moment, his burst had not yet ended, so he took advantage of the situation and gave Wang Chongyang a set of quick dot sets, temporarily gaining the upper hand.
However, Wang Chongyang had deep internal strength after all, and his successful dot detonation did not cause much damage to Wang Chongyang. If he wanted to truly defeat him, relying on skills alone was far from enough.
Only then did Xiao Hao realize some of the flaws of the system skills. When he really faced a master with excellent experience, reaction, and internal strength, sometimes skills might not be able to get the upper hand.
Wang Chongyang had already figured out his routine at this time, so he no longer let him fly a kite and follow him from a distance, and said to him: "Be careful."
Xiao Hao immediately came back to his senses and used thunderous anger on him, but saw Wang Chongyang suddenly soaring three feet into the air, not only avoiding his attack, but also stepping into the air at an extremely fast speed, as if walking in the air, which was the unique light skill of the Quanzhen School's "Golden Goose Kung Fu".
Hong Qi couldn't help but applaud when he saw his amazing and unparalleled Qinggong.
Xiao Hao saw Wang Chongyang coming from the air, and avoided his sword with a Yaotai Zhenhe move. He also saw that his other hand had turned into a palm gesture, which seemed weak and powerless, but was actually exquisite and powerful. A "Walking on Frost and Breaking Ice Palm" reading popped up under the blood bar. His body tilted and he sent out a sword heart obliquely.
Wang Chongyang's body was interrupted and his internal strength was sealed again. He was not impatient. The sword in his hand was like a stream of light, and he stabbed Xiao Hao 18 times in a row. When his wrist shook, each sword was divided into three, and when he stabbed, it was only one move. At first glance, the sword shadows were mixed, and it was unstoppable.
Xiao Hao was still in a state of uncertainty. In this emergency, his light skill was still on cooldown. He didn't even have time to activate the Heaven and Earth Damage Reduction. Seeing that this move of "One Qi Transformed into Three Pure Ones" was inevitable, an idea suddenly occurred to him. He actually used his backhand to create layers of sword flowers on the tip of each sword. For a moment, green light surged, and sword shadows scattered like falling petals, with a continuous clanging sound.
Huang Yaoshi saw this move and took a step forward excitedly.
This set of Falling Flower Divine Sword was not as exquisite as the Jade Sword Technique, nor was it considered the most advanced martial arts on Peach Blossom Island, and even less comparable to Wang Chongyang's unique skill of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones", but Xiao Hao had just grasped the essence of it in a flash, and in this situation, it was used without any redundancy and with great wonders. This set of sword techniques, like a sudden gust of wind and the falling of thousands of flowers, was improved to break this move of "One Qi Transforms into Three Pure Ones".
Xiao Hao was blessed with a move, and even though he had taken advantage, he did not dare to continue. When Wang Chongyang was holding back and defending, he followed up with the Sword Shadow and pushed him back more than ten feet.
Wang Chongyang's lightness skill made him very jealous, and he didn't dare to ask him to do this again. Dai Xian blocked his lightness skill seamlessly and continued to fight him at a distance.
The two of them fought back and forth for a long time. If Wang Chongyang couldn't get close to Xiao Hao, he couldn't do anything to him. Even if he transformed his sword energy into a shape and released it like Xiao Hao, this kid was so swift that he couldn't hurt him at all; but Xiao Hao's damage was also very limited. Once his moves became old, it would be easy to be seen as flawed. If he continued for a long time, he would not only exhaust his internal energy, but also become more and more dangerous.
After fighting back and forth for more than 200 moves, Wang Chongyang sighed, retracted his sword power, and stood still with the long sword behind his back.
Seeing that he was not going to continue, Xiao Hao also stopped his sword dance and stood in front of him.
Wang Chongyang shook his head and sighed: "Even if we fight till the end of time, we can't tell who is the winner. Forget it, you are decades younger than me, and we can fight to a draw, you have already defeated me."
Xiao Hao was very surprised, holding his sword. He thought he would fight with Wang Chongyang until the end, but he didn't expect Wang Chongyang to lose on his own initiative. However, his victory was somewhat due to trickery, and he couldn't help but blush and said, "The real master is worthy of being the best in the world. I didn't dare to get close to him. I am really ashamed of this fighting style."
Wang Chongyang said, "Qinggong is just one of the martial arts. It is rare for you to have such achievements at such a young age. Brother Yao's legacy has not been passed on to the wrong person. The Falling Flowers Sword you used just now is already better than yours."
After all, he used the Peach Blossom Island martial arts to break the Quanzhen's unique skills, so Wang Chongyang had no reason to be unconvinced. If it were a few years ago, he might have had a verbal battle, talking about the method of breaking the Falling Sword, but now that he has seen the Nine Yin and broken the Jade Girl Heart Sutra, he is much more humble than before. He feels that although they fought evenly, he is indeed a little inferior.
When he was his age, his cultivation was far from his. This boy has a bright future and may become a master.
Wang Chongyang took out a carefully preserved scripture from his arms, handed it over and said: "From now on, the title of the world's number one will change hands. You little guy must not be greedy and waste your talent from now on."
Xiao Hao respectfully accepted it and agreed.
[Ding! The young hero challenged Wang Chongyang, and he was not inferior to him. He was evenly matched with Wang Chongyang and successfully obtained the Nine Yin Manual. His status was increased by 3000. 】
【Congratulations to the hero for passing the secret realm. Please collect the secret realm reward from the courier column. 】
Xiao Hao was very happy when he received the prompt. This trip to the island was finally worth it. However, he felt a little depressed when he thought that he would leave this place soon.
However, according to the usual nature of the system, it would not let him go smoothly. He had just obtained the secret realm reward, and immediately gave him another blow:
【The hero's power [Yiying Building] has suffered a major change. Please send assistance immediately. 】 The
