Chapter 119: Controlling a Sword Remotely
Xiaoyao Lang was puzzled for a moment, so he stepped forward to ask the female disciple for clarification.
After listening, the female disciple smiled and said, "Young Master Xiaoyao, condensing qi into a sword means maximizing the power of qi to increase the attack force. If a sword condensed from qi is blocked or deflected, the force will eventually dissipate and the sword will disappear. To condense qi into a weapon, in addition to requiring extremely strong internal energy regulation, one must also ensure that the qi does not dissipate or can be instantly reassembled. Achieving these three points is easier said than done! Furthermore, even if one achieves them, a weapon condensed from qi is ultimately inferior to a true weapon made of black iron."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang suddenly realized and said, "So, condensing energy into soldiers isn't very effective after all."
The female disciple smiled and said, "That's not it. This is ultimately a unique skill. Having energy transformed into weapons gives one a significant advantage in combat. However, to acquire this ability, one must eventually reach the Transcendent Realm before one can condense energy into a physical form."
Xiaoyao Lang said boldly, "Thank you for clearing up my doubts!"
Female disciple: "Young Master Xiaoyao, you're too kind!"
After listening to the explanation, Xiaoyao Lang did not give up his idea of ​​condensing his energy into a weapon. To use his energy as a sword, he had to ensure that his energy was full.
Thinking this, he tested his skills again, channeling his powerful energy into two swords. With his mind and spirit aligned, his inner energy surged, and the surrounding air currents converged and surged, finally forming two sword blades. Xiaoyao Lang released both swords, then pushed off with his feet, rising several feet into the air. The two sword blades followed him, allowing him to wield them remotely. As his mind and spirit harmonized, he finally mastered the swords, moving them swiftly and freely, surrounded by a sword array protecting him.
Everyone was stunned by what they saw and looked up to see what was happening.
Xiaoyao Lang was overjoyed. He hadn't expected to be able to control a sword like this. This kind of sword attack, formed from condensed qi, was truly impossible to defend against. In his excitement, he unleashed his qi, sending the sword shadow soaring into the sky like a giant dragon. Tianji Palace was already located on a high peak, and flying to the top, they were already tens of thousands of miles above the clouds.
Everyone looked up in amazement, exclaiming, "Ah...that's amazing!" "How can he be so quick to understand!" "Look..." The sounds echoed continuously.
Yu Linglong was in the former Qing Palace, meditating and regulating her inner energy. After consummating her marriage with Xiaoyao Lang, the Yin and Yang energies merged, and her inner energy was reborn in two ways. From then on, her inner energy could be gathered and dispersed, and her cultivation had reached the Saintly level. Her dual-elemental body seemed to be able to absorb the Qi of the Nine Mysteries, its power stirring the bright moon and stars.
Hearing the shouts, Yu Linglong worried that something might happen to Xiaoyao Lang. With a thought, she moved her body like a white light towards the training ground.
In the blink of an eye, Yu Linglong arrived at the venue. Seeing everyone looking up, she peered over and saw Xiaoyao Lang high in the sky, surrounded by swirling sword energy that moved back and forth with lightning speed.
Yu Linglong murmured, "Naughty!" Then, she gently raised her right hand and drew out three streams of energy that transformed into swords. With a flick of her wrist, the three swords shot out simultaneously, striking Xiaoyao Lang high in the sky.
Seeing this, Xiaoyao Lang became extremely nervous and hurriedly channeled his inner energy to resist. Instantly, the sword energy around him converged into one path, descending from the sky to meet one of the sword energies unleashed by Yu Linglong. The two energies collided with a loud "bang." Xiaoyao Lang was ultimately outmatched; his sword energy was shattered and dispersed, and his body was simultaneously struck by the other two energies, causing him to fall from the sky.
Seeing this, everyone was terrified and covered their mouths, speechless. Just as Xiaoyao Lang was about to land, Yu Linglong, though making no movement, surged with true energy, her powerful aura sweeping in all directions. Instantly, a strong force supported Xiaoyao Lang, leaving him suspended in mid-air, motionless, yet giving Yu Linglong a simple, honest smile.
Yu Linglong glanced at him, said nothing, and leisurely turned and left. Xiaoyao Lang immediately lost his strength and fell to the ground in mid-air.
Seeing that Xiaoyao Lang was unharmed, everyone covered their mouths and chuckled. Xiaoyao Lang got up and walked forward, catching up with Yu Linglong, and said in a low voice, "In front of everyone, you didn't even give me any face!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong stopped and said, "If you value face, why be so shameless? You are now my husband, and in the future, you may even become the leader of a sect. Today's unseemly behavior will become a source of ridicule for you in the future. You are over twenty years old; you should be more respectful of yourself." After saying this, she walked away again.
Upon hearing these words, Xiaoyao Lang immediately asked, "Are you angry?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong immediately turned around and said, "I won't be angry with you. Even if you can't change, you will still be my husband. Even if the whole world laughs at you, I will still stay by your side."
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang said righteously, "With your words, Xiaoyao Lang is content for this life! From now on, I will be respectful in my words and deeds, and treat all beings with reverence." He replied with a solemn expression.
Seeing this, Yu Linglong smiled and then said calmly, "I didn't force you."
Xiaoyao Lang immediately grabbed Yu Linglong's hand and said with a smile, "Consider it my way of showing you goodwill."
The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the former Qing Palace. Yu Linglong was still meditating on the lotus platform. Xiaoyao Lang, not seeing Xiao Ye, asked, "Why isn't Xiao Ye here?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Linglong remained silent for a moment before calmly asking, "What do you want with her?"
Xiaoyao Lang laughed, "What could it be! It's all about food, of course!"
Yu Linglong said with some disappointment, "You keep talking about food all the time. It seems you've decided to give up on practicing the 'Abdominal Qi Technique'?"
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyao Lang said in a serious tone, "I believe that eating is the foundation of life and one of my hobbies. If I were to abandon my own hobbies for the sake of years of cultivation, how could I be worthy of the name 'Xiaoyao' (meaning 'carefree')!"
Upon hearing this explanation, Yu Linglong did not argue with him and immediately said, "She has been confined to her room by me."
Xiaoyao Lang immediately asked, "Xiao Ye has been confined to her quarters? Why?"
Seeing Xiaoyao Lang's expression, Yu Linglong coldly said, "I hope you won't interfere in the affairs of Tianji Palace."
Xiaoyao Lang was taken aback. Yu Linglong's tone was cold, and she had never spoken to him in such a tone since their first meeting. He couldn't help but think about the whole story, which must be related to him. After some thought, he said, "I certainly have no right to interfere in the affairs of Tianji Palace. But I have a question about this matter."
Yu Linglong: "Speak."
Xiaoyao Lang: "Is this related to me?"
Yu Linglong: "Yes."
Xiaoyao Lang remained silent for a moment, then said softly, "Since Xiaoye has been confined because of me, I will avoid her from now on." Xiaoyao Lang seemed to understand something.
Yu Linglong listened without speaking. At this moment, all the disciples of Tianji Palace arrived at Qianqing Palace.
"Your subordinates pay their respects to the Palace Master!" The crowd bowed respectfully.
Yu Linglong opened her eyes and said, "Greetings, everyone! Dongxue, what brings you all here?"
Xiaoyao Lang then learned that the female disciple who had given him guidance was named Dongxue.
Na Dongxue cupped her hands and replied, "Reporting to the Palace Master, we have come here to humbly request that the Palace Master allow Young Master Xiaoyao to teach us the art of sword control."
As soon as the words were spoken, everyone knelt on one knee, cupped their hands in unison, and said loudly, "We humbly request the Palace Master to grant our request!"
Yu Linglong looked at Xiaoyao Lang, but Xiaoyao Lang didn't seem to care. Yu Linglong said, "Everyone, please rise! Diligent study and cultivation are good things. If you want to learn sword control, as long as Yu Lang can teach you, I have no objection."
Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy, and they all stood up, cupped their hands, and said, "We beg you, Young Master Xiaoyao, to generously impart your teachings!"
Xiaoyao Lang then said, "Greetings, fellow disciples! I was able to comprehend the sword control technique thanks to your guidance. Since everyone is interested in the sword control technique, I will naturally share the skills I have mastered with you."
"Thank you, Young Master Xiaoyao!" everyone shouted in unison.
Xiaoyao Lang gestured to the door and declared boldly, "Please come in, everyone!"
The group arrived at the training ground, where Xiaoyao Lang taught them the incantation for raising their Qi, emphasizing the unity of mind and sword. The mind follows the sword, the sword follows the Qi, and the Qi is controlled by the intention, circulating continuously.
Since everyone's skills were already quite good, they could all wield swords remotely and even step into the air. With Xiaoyao Lang's guidance, most of the senior brothers and sisters had fully grasped the technique and could control their swords to break through the air and strike back and forth.
Dongxue said happily, "Young Master Xiaoyao, thank you so much! Learning this sword control technique has saved me a lot of internal energy consumption, and the attacks are fast and accurate!"
Xiaoyao Lang said boldly, "Miss Dongxue, there's no need for thanks. I'm the one who should be thanking you. If it weren't for your guidance, I probably wouldn't even know how to condense Qi into strength by now!" After saying that, the two looked at each other and chuckled.
