Lord of Earth Fiend

Chapter 15 What Sword Art Is This?
Corpse dogs swarmed in groups, there were more than 20 of them, pressing towards Yizhuang step by step.

They were originally wild dogs, but they mutated due to digging graves and eating too much carrion.His whole body was mangy and mottled, as if wrapped in a piece of rag, exuding a disgusting stench.

Gu Leyou clenched his fingers into fists, and said in a deep voice: "Scholar, we will guard the door, neither disperse nor pursue. If we cannot resist, we will retreat into the room immediately."

At this moment, Chen Jin was surprisingly quiet.

"Eight Swords of Yongzi" is upright and elegant, forging ahead with determination, and only when the mood matches, can it display its real lethal power.

Tonight, the mutated corpse dog happened to be used to test the sword.

"Ow!"

The leader of the tall corpse dog howled and issued an order.

A dead dog flew towards him.

Chen Jin was holding a bamboo stick and was about to make a move when Gu Leyou shouted, "I'm coming!"

The fist blasted out, knocking down the corpse dog.

The dead dog had a thick skin, rolled twice on the ground, and with a "woo hoo", it picked up its bald tail and dodged aside.

"Ow!"

The corpse dog leader continued to howl.

Whizzing!

Two dead dogs rushed forward, one from the left and the other from the right.

"Scholar get out of the way, let me come!"

Gu Leyou stood in front of Chen Jin in a majestic manner, punching and kicking, trying to resist the two dogs.

Chen Jin: "..."

This friend is able to get along, and he really does it when something happens.

"Ow! Ow!"

The third wave of corpse dogs' attack came quickly, and the number reached four. Another two were crawling on the ground, quietly pulling over, trying to get behind the two of them, waiting for an opportunity to attack.

"careful!"

Gu Leyou had sharp eyes and hurriedly sounded a warning, but he had to deal with three dead dogs, so he couldn't help Chen Jin anymore.

laugh!
Chen Jin's bamboo stick passed by, and the attacking corpse dog fell in mid-air, fell to the ground, and soon stopped moving.

Then he raised the bamboo stick again, and another dead dog just jumped over, as if it deliberately hit the tip of the bamboo stick.

The seemingly bland bamboo stick instantly pierced the dead dog's neck, spattering a smear of blood.

"This……"

Gu Leyou glimpsed it out of the corner of his eye, and was both surprised and delighted.

A little distracted, almost scratched by a corpse dog.

Pfft!

It was Chen Jin who swung his stick across and slashed at the dead dog's back, almost cutting it off in half.

"What kind of swordsmanship is this?"

Gu Leyou cried out.

When he dealt with corpse dogs, he always repulsed and wounded them, but Chen Jin held a bamboo stick and killed three of them in an instant.

Sit down!

Chen Jin had no time to answer, and more corpse dogs rushed forward one after another.

The two stood at corners, one with bare hands and the other with a bamboo stick, they cooperated quite well.

A quarter of an hour later, more than ten dead dogs fell in disorder on the open space.

"Ow!"

The leader of the corpse dogs wailed, turned around and ran away, and the rest of the corpse dogs fled one after another and disappeared into the night.

After this battle, the vitality of these corpse dogs was severely injured, and it may be difficult to recover in a few years.

Gu Leyou said: "These dead dogs must be burned to avoid causing a plague."

He went to Yizhuang to move out the dilapidated coffin boards, while Chen Jin was responsible for piling up the dead dogs.

Soon the fire was burning, crackling, and a strong stench was emitted from the fireworks.

Chen Jin stuffed his nostrils with rags, and his face was covered with sweat.

This fight was exhausting, but now that he relaxes, he suddenly feels exhausted, his right arm is sore and limp.

Picking up the bamboo stick and looking at it, I found that the tip had been broken and it was not in shape.It was covered with blood stains, and there were dog fur and fur, red, green, and black, it looked disgusting.

Seeing this, Chen Jin simply threw the bamboo stick into the fire and burned it together.

If a worker wants to be good at his work, he must first sharpen his weapon. If he has a real sword in his hand, the killing power is at least better, and it doesn't take so much effort.

Gu Leyou took out a yellow leather gourd and two jade wine glasses, filled them up respectively, and handed over one glass.

Chen Jin asked: "Aren't there not many?"

Gu Leyou said with a smile: "It's rare to have a good time tonight. After drinking, I can return to the Taoist temple after the term of office expires."

Chen Jin took the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp. The spirit wine turned into a hot stream and spread in all his limbs, and he was immediately invigorated.

Serve with good wine!

Gu Leyou looked at him: "Scholar, you have extraordinary swordsmanship, you can send and receive your thoughts freely."

Chen Jin smiled: "The Taoist priest is too famous."

Gu Leyou curled his lips: "However, your strength is not enough, and you are out of breath after using a few swords. It is purely due to the exquisite swordsmanship."

He felt a little unconvinced in his heart, and continued: "The five realms of martial arts, refining essence, entering energy, washing marrow, exercising energy, and transforming spirit. You are probably refining essence now, but I have entered energy."

"Really? I also ask the Taoist priest to enlighten me."

As for the division of realms in martial arts, Chen Jin really didn't know. The "Sanli Jing" focused on Taoism and primordial spirit.

Gu Leyou explained: "The first level of martial arts is 'refinement', which is derived from the Taoist theory of health preservation. Those who are 'refined' eat food. Grains, meat, vegetables, medicinal herbs, wine, etc. But most of the diet contains dross , only a small part of the nutritional essence. Refining is to get rid of the dross, absorb the essence, and turn it into your own use. Therefore, martial arts practitioners are especially able to eat and stretch."

Chen Jin listened to it, deeply convinced, and mentioned a sentence in "Ceremony of Merit": never tire of fine food, never tire of fine food.

Since practicing swordsmanship, his appetite has greatly increased, and he has no pleasure in eating meat. As for excretion, it is indeed magnificent, every time it is like a flood.

Gu Leyou continued: "When you have absorbed enough nutrient essence, your muscles, bones, and meridians become stronger, you can enter the path of strength, and your strength will double..."

"The third level 'washing the marrow' is the watershed for becoming a real master. It is because the qi and blood are produced from the bone marrow. At this level, the qi and blood flow continuously, and the strength is durable. Let alone killing more than ten corpse dogs It’s not a problem if it’s hundreds or thousands.”

Speaking of this, the Taoist priest showed a look of envy and longing on his face.

Who doesn't want to be a real master?

"In the fourth realm 'Xing Qi', Qi is Qi. When strength is transformed into true Qi, one can step into the innate, all kinds of mysteries, and is extremely powerful. It is a 'master'... As for the final 'God Transformation', it is It is the pinnacle of martial arts to achieve the divine way, and there are only a handful of practitioners in the world."

Chen Jin listened with gusto.

In this low-law world, martial arts practice has a great effect. In many cases, it even overwhelms the primordial spirit, so practitioners practice martial arts and Taoism together.

Chen Jin learned "Yongzi Eight Swords", which laid the foundation of martial arts, and also learned "Shouqiu Tunafa", which is uniquely inherited by the Qiu family. thing.

Gu Leyou has practiced for more than ten years and ate countless dietary and medicinal materials before he officially entered the path of strength.

Different from Chen Jin's gulping down, Taoists like to drink in small sips and savor slowly: "However, whether it is Yuanshen or Martial Dao, the division of realms is just a generalization of categories. When it comes to real combat, there are many factors that determine the outcome of life and death. , such as the state of mind, and the display of skills, etc. Scholar, your swordsmanship is extraordinary, I can't see through it, the old man who taught you the sword art is probably an expert."

He didn't ask much.

Communication in Jianghu involves Taoism and martial arts learned by individuals, even close friends should not inquire about it.

This is taboo.

In the previous conversation, Chen Jin was insinuating and asking cryptic questions, which did not arouse Gu Leyou's resentment, as an ignorant person is not guilty.

The night passed quickly, and the next morning, Chen Jin carried the book on his back to bid farewell to the Taoist priest and returned to Fucheng.

Next, he will continue to look for Ah Jin and go to the Confucian Temple.
