Chapter 72: Comprehending the Sword's Intent
Jianzhong is the sacred place of Kuixiaofeng, where the first generation master of Kuixiaofeng obtained the inheritance of Haoran Fumo Sword, a pre-heavenly sword technique. Relying on the swordsmanship of Haoran Fumo Sword, the first generation master of Kuixiaofeng almost defeated all the invincible hands in the world, defeating all the heroes in the world, and only lost to the former master of Luoshan Sect by one move, shaking the four directions. Among the six veins of Xiaoyimen, Kuixiaofeng is recognized as having the highest attack power, and is almost unbeatable at the same level. This Jianzhong is also the sacred place of Kuixiaofeng, and it will not be easily allowed for outsiders to come.
Wang Yi Jian arrived at the center of the sword mound, holding his sword and bowing towards the east. He then stood up with his sword, his gaze sweeping over Su Han and others like a ray of light, saying faintly: "I will only demonstrate once, watch closely."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wang Yijian's expression turned solemn and his demeanor changed. In an instant, he transformed from a majestic and gaunt old man to a peerless swordsman with an aura that intimidated others, with a hint of unparalleled sword energy circulating within him.
Wang Yi's sword was unsheathed, and a mighty and righteous aura burst forth, as if transformed into a heroic swordsman with an unyielding spirit, adorned with intricate brocade, worrying about the country and its people. He wielded his demonic-slaying sword technique, vanquishing evil spirits and opening up a new realm.
Sword winds rose, and the majestic positive energy transformed into sword energy with Wang Yi's sword as the core, slashing towards all directions. The hard-as-steel black cloud rocks that even pre-heavenly strong cultivators found difficult to destroy instantly appeared with shocking sword marks.
Li Ying's face suddenly changed, and he exclaimed: "Hao Ran Fu Mo Sword!! This is the Hao Ran Fu Mo Sword, the innate sword technique of my Kuijian Peak!!"
The Hao Ran Fumo Sword is the highest swordsmanship in Qiu Jian Feng, and only a few true disciples of Qiu Jian Feng can practice it. Li Ying was also able to learn this swordsmanship after rising to 27th place on the Xian Tian Pinyin Dragon List.
"Fantastic! Fantastic! This sword technique is truly exquisite and unparalleled. It's the first-rate sword technique I've ever seen!" Su Han gazed at Wang Yi's sword, a hint of fervor flashing in his eyes, this was the strongest sword technique he had ever seen. At the same time, the mysterious symbol in his right eye reappeared, imprinting the exquisite sword technique displayed by Wang Yi firmly in his mind.
Clang!
With a soft sound, the long sword was sheathed, and Wang Yi stretched out his hand to grab at nothing, a true energy swept across, picking up a long sword placed aside and tossing it lightly, the sword flew straight towards Su Han: "Su Han, come practice once!"
"Yes! Uncle Wang!" Su Han took over the long sword, held the sword towards Wang Yi and saluted, then walked quickly to the center of the square.
Li Ying couldn't help but ask: "Master, the Hao Ran Fu Mo sword is exquisite and unparalleled. It's not something that someone who has seen it for the first time can wield. What do you mean by this?"
Wang Yi stood with his back to the sword, his hands clasped behind him, gazing at Su Han in silence.
Li Ying also didn't dare ask again and could only look at Su Han with a puzzled expression.
Su Han stood in the center of the square, took a deep breath, and began to practice the Hao Ran Fu Mo sword that Wang Yi had just demonstrated. In an instant, sword lights flashed everywhere.
Having seen half of it, Li's face suddenly changed color and he exclaimed: "Hao Ran Fumo Sword!! This is Hao Ran Fumo Sword, how can this be? He only looked at it once, how could he possibly master this sword technique? Impossible! This is absolutely impossible!!!!"
The higher the level of martial arts, the more difficult it is to cultivate. Many high-ranking martial artists will carry a secret manual with them when cultivating advanced martial arts, practicing one move and one style at a time. The Hao Ran Fumo Sword, as a congenital sword technique, has unparalleled power and is equally profound and mysterious.
Li Ying was a genius in swordsmanship, and he could master any sword technique as soon as he learned it. However, when it came to the Hao Ran Fu Mo sword, he had to learn it one move at a time. Su Han, on the other hand, only needed to see it once before he could wield the Hao Ran Fu Mo sword, which left Li Ying utterly astonished.
Wang Yi's eyes flashed with a complex expression, and he said slowly: "Only got its shape."
Li Ying was silent, gazing at Su Han in the square, a flash of jealousy and admiration flickering in his eyes. Su Han had only seen the Hao Ran Fumo Sword once, but he could already wield it perfectly, that kind of swordsmanship talent was more than ten times stronger than his own.
In the process of Su Han's display of his majestic sword, countless sword moves were also being derived in his mind. Under the strengthened derivation of the Great Wisdom Sutra, suddenly, he felt enlightened and entered a profound state.
Su Han's swordsmanship suddenly changed, no longer bound by the swordsmanship of Hao Ran Fumo Sword, but instead transformed into a swordsman with a chest full of Hao Ran's righteous energy, a mind full of strategies, and a determination to eradicate all evil demons in the world, bringing about a bright and clear sky. When facing countless evil demons, he held a Fumo sword in his hand, without hesitation, charging towards those evil demons.
Just as Su Hanshan's sword move changed, the power of the Hao Ran Fo Mo Sword in his hand suddenly increased by more than tenfold. A series of Hao Ran Fo Mo Sword Qi burst forth and spread out in all directions, leaving behind a trail of shocking and terrifying sword marks on the black stone cliff.
Wang Yi's expression suddenly changed, and he said in a somewhat discomposed tone: "Fumo Sword Intent!! He has actually grasped the Fumo Sword Intent!! How is that possible? This is his first time seeing the Hao Ran Fumo Sword, how could he possibly grasp the Fumo Sword Intent!!!"
The sword technique is easy to learn, but the sword intent is difficult to cultivate. Among 10,000 top-notch swordsmen, there may not be one who can cultivate the sword intent. Even among the innate swordsmen, those who can cultivate the sword intent are rare and can be counted on one's fingers.
Throughout the entire Quixing Peak, there were hundreds of disciples learning swordsmanship, but only Wang Yijian truly grasped the essence of the sword. Throughout the entire Xiaoyi Gate, only Wang Yijian had grasped the essence of the sword. And he too was only able to grasp the essence of the Haoran Fumo Sword after years of arduous cultivation, just last year.
A swordsman who has grasped the intent of the sword, with combat strength that transcends the ordinary, can even cross a great boundary to challenge powerful enemies. Although Wang Yisheng is only a master of the Innate Great Perfection, if he were given a good sword, he would be able to challenge an invincible strongman at the True Origin Realm. It was precisely because of the rarity of that sword intent that Wang Yisheng had become so agitated.
Li Ying was also struck, somewhat disbelieving his eyes: "Sword intent? Fumo sword intent? He actually grasped the Fumo sword intent, just by looking at it once, and yet he's already reached such a level. How is that possible? Is this real?"
Li Ying was born with exceptional talent and had always received countless praises. He also took pride in his own swordsmanship talent in private. However, after decades of learning the sword, he hadn't even grasped the edge of the sword intent, whereas Su Han, who stood before him, had only taken one glance to not only master the innate sword technique "Hao Ran Fu Mo Jian" but also comprehend the intent behind it. The enormous gap between them struck Li Ying with a blow that almost made him lose all confidence.
