Qi Yunxiao began to explain the essentials of cutting the sea.
He described in detail the trajectory of the sword technique, the use of force, and the collision with the water spirit, explaining every detail in a simple and easy-to-understand way.
Meng Wan listened carefully, keeping every word in mind.
After memorizing the key points, Meng Wan began to practice by the river.
She closed her eyes and carefully felt the water spirit flowing around her, the rushing river water, and the whistling river wind.
Then, Meng Wan suddenly opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and the blood in his body rushed to his arms like a tide, pouring into the dagger in his hand, drawing a sharp cold light, and slashing down fiercely!
"boom!"
Water splashed and waves surged, but the river was only split open with a shallow opening, which quickly closed again and continued to flow.
Meng Wan frowned slightly, feeling the sluggishness when she swung the knife just now. She realized that her understanding of Duan Hai was not deep enough.
She repeatedly recalled the key points explained by Qi Yunxiao, adjusted her posture over and over again, controlled her strength, and swung the knife again.
Once, twice, three times...
Time passed minute by minute, and after an unknown amount of time, the sun set and the sky was dyed with a fiery red glow.
Meng Wan swung the knife again, and this time, her movements were extremely smooth.
The dagger cut through the air, making a crisp whistling sound, as if a dragon emerged from the sea, slashing down fiercely with unmatched momentum!
“Boom!”
With a loud bang, the river suddenly broke off, forming a bottomless ravine. The rushing river roared on both sides of the ravine, but could not go beyond it even a step.
Meng Wan knelt on one knee, leaning on a dagger in her right hand, breathing heavily, but a relieved smile appeared on her face.
She did it!
"That's right," Qi Yunxiao's voice sounded behind her.
"After learning the basics of Tiancan Sword Technique, learning the following moves will be faster, but it also depends on personal talent."
Meng Wan turned to look at Qi Yunxiao and bowed again, "Thank you, Senior Brother Qi, for your guidance."
"Keep practicing until you can send and receive with ease."
Qi Yunxiao's tone was calm.
Meng Wan nodded, gripped the dagger again, and continued to practice Duan Hai.
She swung the knife again and again, cutting off the river flow again and again, feeling the sharpness of the blade cutting through the water.
It was not until night fell and the stars twinkled that Qi Yunxiao finally called a halt.
"You've practiced to this point, that's enough. Next, you'll use the Broken Sea to cut off the lake."
The two came to the lake. The calm surface of the lake was like a mirror, reflecting the stars in the sky.
Meng Wan took a deep breath, gripped the dagger tightly, and looked at the vast lake.
Lakes are much wider than rivers. To cut through them, one needs not only strength but also precise control of strength...
"Are you ready?"
Qi Yunxiao's voice rang out in the silent night sky.
Meng Wan nodded, walked towards the lake, and felt the cool breeze coming from the surface of the lake.
She closed her eyes and recalled the essence of the Sea-Severing Technique.
Then he suddenly opened his eyes, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
The dagger in his hand suddenly burst out with dazzling light, like a meteor across the night sky, carrying a biting chill, and slashed fiercely towards the lake surface.
With a loud bang, a huge crack appeared on the surface of the lake in an instant, like a huge gem being split in half.
The water surface formed a smooth cross-section at the fracture, like glass, reflecting the moonlight and shining with a hazy light.
The lake water on both sides rolled outwards wildly, forming huge waves and making earth-shaking roars, and the ravine that was split open became deeper and deeper.
"Yes, it seems that this small lake is no longer a problem for you."
Qi Yunxiao smiled slightly and said, "Next, let's go to the beach."
The two came to the beach, the sea breeze was howling, and the waves were hitting the shore, making a deafening roar.
Qi Yunxiao pointed to the sea in the distance and said, "Use the method of cutting off the sea to stop the flow."
Meng Wan took a deep breath, gripped the dagger tightly, and concentrated all her strength and will on the tip of the blade.
Then he swung the knife suddenly, and the dagger cut through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and slashed towards the sea with unmatched momentum.
With a loud bang, a huge crack was instantly split open on the sea surface, extending towards both ends.
The sea water rolled outward wildly, forming huge waves and making a deafening roar.
However, this level is still some distance away from truly cutting off the sea and stopping the flow of water.
Meng Wan swung the knife again and again, constantly gaining insights and making adjustments.
Perhaps it was because her cultivation was too low, and the strength she could exert was limited.
Or perhaps the sea was too wide, so the second method of cutting off the sea was unable to stop the flow.
Finally, after a failed attempt, Meng Wan stopped using the knife. She stood quietly there, closing her eyes and thinking.
When I opened my eyes again, the sky in the east was already turning pale.
There was an orange-yellow light illuminating the ground from the clouds below.
A fish jumped out of the water nimbly, and its scales shone with colorful light in the morning glow.
Meng Wan finally moved.
She opened her eyes, clenched the hand holding the dagger, and swung it down suddenly!
The second move, breaking the sea!
Without waiting for the sea water that was split in two to show any signs of closing together, Meng Wan swung the dagger again and slashed down continuously.
Break, break, break, break!
After swinging his sword seven times in a row, all the blood and energy in Meng Wan's body were used up, and a white line appeared in the center of the sea below.
At the beginning, there was only a small break in the white line.
But as time went on, the white line became longer and wider.
Finally, it turned into a deep ravine, dividing the entire ocean into two.
“That’s amazing.”
Even though Qi Yunxiao was a martial arts genius, he couldn't help but be shocked by Meng Wan's progress.
It has only been three days since Meng Wan started practicing the Duan Hai style.
Meng Wan's speed is not much slower than his back then.
"It's all thanks to my senior brother's guidance."
Qi Yunxiao smiled and said, "You have completely mastered the second move of the Tiancan Sword Technique, Cutting the Sea. Next, you can start practicing the third move.
Once you learn the first three moves, you'll be able to hold out for a few more moves next time you face Instructor Qingyi."
The third move of the Tiancan Sword Technique is called Splitting the Sky.
A thrust of the sword, straight into the sky, could tear the heavens apart, trigger thunder and fire from heaven and earth, and change the color of the sky.
Under Qi Yunxiao's guidance, Meng Wan found a cave world of a lower level.
The spiritual energy here is thin, and cultivators can only cultivate to the Golden Core Realm at most. The spatial barrier is also relatively fragile, which is perfect for practicing this sword technique that can attract celestial phenomena.
Qi Yunxiao had other important things to do, so he naturally couldn't always be Meng Wan's sparring partner. After giving a few pointers, he left.
Taking a deep breath, Meng Wan closed her eyes and felt the blood surging in her body.
Unlike the spiritual power of ordinary cultivators, his blood is violent and aggressive, which unexpectedly fits in with the domineering and brutal Tiancan swordsmanship.
When she opened her eyes again, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes, and she suddenly swung the dagger.
"laugh--"
A red sword-like energy, accompanied by a sharp sound of breaking through the air, rushed straight into the sky.
