Yunze, the eye of the Big Dipper Demon-Subduing Grand Formation- Yaoguang Formation.
Xie Wujin, Yao Wuguang, and Xie Shangjin are often in the same group. Xie Wujin and Xie Shangjin are even cousins and have a close relationship.
Of the three Xie Wujin was Seventh-Rank Martial Artist Eighth-Rank Qi Ingestion, extremely skilled in combat.
He had long, narrow eyes, well-proportioned features, fair skin, and a lean, muscular build, making him one of the most outstanding figures among the younger generation in Cloud Marsh Lower Court.
Xie Wujin naturally had some thoughts about Mingli's Wuming.
Cloud Marsh Lower Court has strict rules, strictly prohibiting sexual relations between men and women. Married men's wives are not allowed to live in the Lower Court to avoid causing trouble.
Xie Wujin had only seen Wuming twice in the dining hall, and had no chance to speak with him.
Seeing Zhou Wuji and Wuming chatting and laughing intimately, Wuming's shy yet happy expression, it was clear that he was full of affection for Zhou Wuji.
Zhou Wuji was handsome and dashing, Wuming delicate and beautiful; the two of them standing together were truly a perfect match.
As Daoist Yizhen just explained, Zhou Wuji and Wuleng are both at the Sixth Rank of cultivation.
He was Seventh-Rank Martial Artist and considered himself not to be too afraid of Sixth Rank cultivators in close combat.
However, his appearance and demeanor were far inferior to Zhou Wuji's, so to make such a forced comparison would only be self-humiliating.
Zhou Wuji also has Daoist Yizhen behind him; provoking Zhou Wuji is just asking for trouble.
Xie Wujin tried to suppress his anger, but he couldn't shake the feeling of unease. After a moment's thought, he cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Zhou Wuji: "Senior brother, you're at the Sixth Rank of cultivation. Since you have nothing better to do, why don't you give us some pointers on Swordsmanship?"
Xie Wujin was thirty years old, but Zhou Wuji's cultivation was higher than his, so he naturally had to be more polite in addressing him.
Before Zhou Wuji could speak after Xie Wujin asked for guidance, Yang Tie Ying stepped forward with a displeased expression and said, "What level of cultivation do you have that you're asking my master for guidance?"
"Let me go first."
Zhou Wuji instructed Yang Tie Ying: "Swords and blades are dangerous; if you want to spar, do it bare-handed."
His apprentice was simple-minded, but also extremely loyal to him, and dared to stand up for him when things went wrong, which was a good thing.
As a dignified Sixth Rank cultivator, not everyone is qualified to spar with him.
When there's trouble, the disciple will do the work. That's what taking on disciples is all about!
As for Xie Wujin's challenge, it's actually quite normal. As a newcomer, he's bound to attract a lot of attention.
The martial arts atmosphere at Cloud Marsh Lower Court is extremely strong, and sparring is inevitable. However, Xie Wujin was the first to jump out.
Xie Wujin was Seventh-Rank Martial Artist after all, and he was too embarrassed to bully Shangbing himself, so he sent his nephew Xie Shangjin with him.
Although Xie Shangjin had only recently begun practicing Qi Consumption, he had already mastered Hidden Force and his Five Tigers Fist technique was quite refined. In recent years, he had also frequently fought against Demon Beast, making him a highly experienced fighter.
He thought his nephew would easily defeat the young Daoist priest, but the result was completely unexpected.
After a fierce exchange of dozens of moves, Yang Tie Ying executed a somersault, kicking Xie Shangjin in Xie Shangjin head and sending Xie Shangjin sprawling.
Xie Shangjin a bruised and swollen face, but his injuries weren't serious. He was just covered in dust and looked rather disheveled.
This man, being from the military, was quite capable of accepting defeat. He immediately cupped his hands in greeting and said, "Impressive Iron Eagle Fist! I've learned my lesson."
Seeing the other party's politeness, Yang Tie Ying also suppressed his smugness and returned the greeting with a cupped-fist salute. "It's an honor, thank you for your consideration."
Xie Wujin was a little embarrassed. Yang Tie Ying's martial arts skills were very refined, and he combined True Qi with martial arts techniques very cleverly. It was obvious that he had been instructed by a famous master.
He could easily win if he wanted to, but it's too shameful for him to fight with a junior.
He felt bad for admitting defeat so easily, while his nephew had been humiliated and beaten for nothing.
Xie Wujin could only look at Zhou Wuji: "Senior brother has taught a good disciple, truly skillful. I'd like to learn your Swordsmanship even more now."
Just as Yang Tie Ying was about to take the initiative to fight, Wuleng stepped forward and said, "I have long heard of the Xie Household's Scarlet Yang Sword's formidable power. Forgive my intrusion, but I would like to ask my senior brother to teach me a few moves."
Xie Wujin glanced at Wuleng. This female cultivator was beautiful and had a calm demeanor. Why was she being so kind to Zhou Wuji? She even wanted to help Zhou Wuji. He felt even more awkward.
He thought for a moment and said, "Very well, I'll experience the Yuheng Technique firsthand."
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Zhou Wuji said, "Real swords can easily damage relationships. I have two wooden swords here, which are perfect for you two to spar with."
The wooden sword was used to teach Swordsmanship. Zhou Wuji had the Five Yin Pouch, so he could carry these useless things with him.
Xie Wujin he saw Zhou Wuji flick his long sleeves and two four-foot wooden swords appeared in front of him.
Storage Law Technique or storage Law Artifact?
He had cultivated in the Lower Court for ten years, so he naturally knew about the Five Yin Pouch, but he had never seen anyone master it. How old was Zhou Wuji? Did he still have the mind to practice such Law Technique?
If it's a storage Law Artifact, that's even more powerful, practically worth a fortune...
Wuleng seen Zhou Wuji's Five Yin Pouch many times, Wu Leng picked up a wooden sword and casually picked up another wooden sword, which landed right in front of Xie Wujin.
Xie Wujin had no time to think further. He could only take the sword and brace himself. After all, Wuleng was Sixth Rank swordsman. Although he was confident that he could win in a Swordsmanship fight, he dared not be careless.
As the two began to fight, Xie Wujin realized something was wrong. Wuleng stepped on a seven-pointed star as if riding the wind, moving with extraordinary speed, and the wooden sword in her hand was full of sharpness under her command.
The Scarlet Yang Sword is a military Swordsmanship, simple in its variations, but it is far inferior to the Wuleng Yaoguang Sword.
In less than ten moves, Xie Wujin's wooden sword was deflected, Wuleng wooden sword was now pointed at his throat.
Wuleng sheathed his sword, cupped his hands, but remained silent.
She and Zhou Wuji had been exchanging Swordsmanship every day since they came together, and before she knew it, her Swordsmanship had improved considerably.
If it really came down to a fight, she Xie Wujin within three sword strikes. But it was just a friendly sparring match; there was no need to make it so ugly.
Xie Wujin could only bitterly cup his hands in respect. "Senior Sister's Swordsmanship is superb; I am far inferior. I admire you greatly."
Seeing this, Yao Wuguang and Xie Shangjin dared not utter a word.
After two matches, they were both completely defeated and had no chance to fight back.
Zhou Wuji smiled and said, "We are all from the same sect. Exchanging skills and practicing with each other is also a way to hone our cultivation."
"Your martial Swordsmanship are both unique styles, and we should learn from them. We would appreciate any opportunity to receive your guidance, junior brother."
Xie Wujin's face flushed slightly, and he could only manage a forced, polite laugh...
After sparring, Xie Wujin and the other two immediately became more obedient and treated Zhou Wuji and his group with even greater respect.
Zhou Wuji was quite satisfied with this, as it could be considered a friendly exchange through martial arts, breaking down communication barriers between the two sides and making the team atmosphere very harmonious.
" The Wuleng Swordsmanship is so powerful..." Wuming watched as Wuleng defeated Xie Wujin, and she was filled with envy, but also felt a little sour.
During this period, her cultivation level improved greatly, but her Swordsmanship arts skills progressed only moderately. Not to mention being inferior to Wuleng, she couldn't even compare to Yang Tie Ying.
Moreover, Wuleng was clearly fighting on behalf of his senior brother, Wuleng and his senior brother had a pretty good relationship!
Zhou Wuji said softly, "Practicing swordsmanship is ultimately too dangerous. We Tianshu cultivators should focus on cultivating our Law Technique."
"First, advance to the Seventh Rank, then choose a spell to specialize in, so you can use magic to subdue Law Technique..."
Wuming nodded repeatedly. Her senior brother still cared about her the most, liked her the most, and treated her the best!
With nothing else to do, Zhou Wuji Wuming started giving Wuming pointers on cultivation.
He Mind Mirror that reflects both his inner and outer worlds, and since Wuming is unprepared for him, he can see the flaws in the circulation of Wuming's True Qi.
Furthermore, his Northern Dipper Tianshu Scripture has been perfected, so in terms of cultivation and insight, he has far surpassed Yizhen. His True Qi and Divine Sense are dozens of times better than Wuming's, and he can directly help Wuming guide the circulation of True Qi.
Actually, guiding with True Qi is not difficult; the difficulty lies in discovering the practitioner's problems and helping to make precise adjustments and corrections.
Cultivators use their Divine Sense to control True Qi, but the state of their Divine Sense is unstable, and there will be subtle differences in the state of True Qi each time they breathe it in.
In other words, Zhou Wuji was close to Wuming and had the time, which allowed him to patiently guide and adjust Wuming repeatedly...
On the first night, Zhou Wuji took out tents, one for himself and one for Yang Tie Ying, and one for Wuming and Wuleng.
Xie Wujin and the others were even more surprised to see Zhou Wuji conjure up tents again. The difference between carrying two wooden swords and carrying two tents was enormous.
Just how big is this guy's Five Yin Pouch...?
Xie Wujin and the others were secretly discussing it in the tent. Xie Shangjin sighed with particular envy, "This Five Yin Pouch is too amazing. I wonder how this person trained it?"
Yao Wuguang said, "With such Law Technique skill, Zhou Wuji must be incredibly powerful. We should go back and send someone to Yunyang to inquire about him..."
Xie Wujin remained silent. What difference would it make whether he asked or not? He didn't want to be Zhou Wuji's enemy anyway.
As for being friends, it seems like we're not quite there yet, and there's no need to force it.
The following night, Zhou Wuji "saw" his first demon.
A black deer came running across the water. The deer, including its head and antlers, was over ten feet tall, with its head and tail over ten feet long. Its muscles were bulging, and its black fur was as shiny as silk. Its four hooves moved swiftly across the water.
This black deer could even be described as magnificent, except that its eyes were bloodshot and its aura was wild.
Black Deer spotted the group's chance of survival from afar and charged forward without hesitation.
It wasn't until the black deer rushed close that Wuleng discovered its tracks, followed by Xie Wujin and Yang Tie Ying.
Although Wuming's cultivation level was mediocre, her senses were extremely sharp. She sensed the aura of the demon deer almost simultaneously with Xie Wujin.
Zhou Wuji flicked a spark with his finger. The Fire Bell Incantation was originally a low-level Law Technique, but now his Divine Sense True Qi were strong, Fire Bell Incantation split into seven bright flames in the air, illuminating the figure of the black deer rushing below with exceptional clarity.
Yang Tie Ying and Wuming, whose cultivation levels were lower, finally saw clearly that the black deer was so tall and swift that even if they couldn't identify its demonic item rank, they could still sense its power.
" Seventh Rank, or even Sixth Rank!" Xie Wujin said anxiously, "We should activate the magic Law Artifact immediately; that would be the safest course of action."
The seven of them could certainly put up a fight with their magic array, but close combat with such a large demon was too dangerous; a single kick could kill someone.
Zhou Wuji, however, became interested and said, "No need, I'll do it."
Wuming looked at Zhou Wuji Zhou Wuji some worry, but she didn't want to stop him. Doing so would seem like she didn't trust Zhou Wuji, and it would also make her appear very immature in front of everyone...
Yang Tie Ying, however, excitedly told Xie Wujin and the others, "Keep your eyes peeled and watch carefully!"
Xie Wujin and the others didn't have time to pay attention to Yang Tie Ying's arrogant tone; they were all really wide-eyed, wanting to see what Zhou Wuji was capable of.
When the black deer saw someone approaching, it adjusted its posture, lowered its head, and pointed its antlers, which resembled halberd blades Zhou Wuji.
As the two sides drew near, the black deer suddenly accelerated. It was already fast, but with this leap, propelled by its hind legs, it was faster than an arrow.
The black deer's body was surging with intense Qi and Blood and qi, forming a faint black sheen on its surface.
Zhou Wuji quickly made a judgment: Sixth Rank demon.
The demon's Qi and Blood and energy were several times stronger than Zhang Banshan's, and it was also faster, but it was still a demon after all, and its fighting skills were too crude, relying only on instinct.
Although Zhou Wuji was absolutely certain of killing him, he still activated the Northern Pole Heavenly Gang Divine Incantation first.
He was draped in azure wings, and with a graceful turn like Flowing Clouds, he dodged the black deer and drew his sword at the same time.
The bright sword light flashed suddenly in the deep night, Xie Wujin and the others who had just stared wide-eyed, making their vision go completely white.
As the bright sword light in their eyes faded, they saw the black deer already charging straight towards them at an angle.
Xie Wujin and the others were shocked and were about to dodge when they saw the black deer's head suddenly roll off. The headless body then ran wildly for another dozen steps before crashing into the damp ground, kicking up a large patch of dirt...
Although Xie Wujin was mentally prepared, he was still shocked to see Zhou Wuji kill the black deer with a single sword strike. What kind of Swordsmanship was this? What level of cultivation was this?
Yang Tie Ying leaned closer and asked smugly, "So, did you understand?!"
Before Xie Wujin speak, Yang Tie Ying arrogantly added, "It's normal that you don't understand the power of my master's divine sword!"
Xie Wujin opened his mouth, but ultimately couldn't utter a word...
