Volume 1: Rebellion in Chang'an Chapter 84: Invisible Sword Escape
[Invisible Sword Escape]
Casting conditions: This skill can only be cast with a sword
Description: Sword Cultivation Escape Technique, Charge Skill, Upper Limit 20 Levels
Prerequisites: Have reached the foundation-building stage and mastered the flying sword technique
Skill effect: After activating this skill, the swordsman can fly a short distance with the flying sword.
Additional explanation: The speed of the Invisible Sword Escape depends on the speed of the sword cultivator's own flying sword, and the skill level only affects the distance the accompanying flying sword flies.
…
This is a close-combat escape technique, which is an essential skill for Lu Qingshan to build a complete swordsmanship system.
Just as Xu Hao said, Lu Qingshan really likes this skill.
Invisible sword escape was a skill that was somewhat famous in the previous life.
Because once this escape technique is performed, the cultivator can fly close to the sword under the cover of the sword light, so this skill has another nickname - a low-profile version of the unity of body and sword.
The power of the unity of body and sword is self-evident.
Invisible Sword Escape can temporarily increase the speed of a sword cultivator to the same level as the speed of a flying sword.
What is the concept?
With Lu Qingshan's current cultivation level, even if he used the sword-controlling technique which was famous for its speed, his speed at the limit was only one fifth of the speed of sound.
But the speed of his flying sword can reach three-fifths of the speed of sound.
That is to say, when using the invisible sword escape, his speed will reach a terrifying level of 60% of the speed of sound.
Even though it can only move a short distance, it is still extremely practical.
He approaches his opponent at a speed faster than any magic. Among cultivators of the same level, those who can come up with countermeasures must be rare.
After learning this skill, his instant kill system will be more complete.
Of course, if one could use this speed to instantly escape from melee combat and then use sword-controlling techniques to escape, it would definitely be considered extremely sharp.
Xu Hao smiled and said, "In order to suppress this incident, the Black Ice Platform not only compensated me with many spirit stones, but also allowed me to choose a magic from the treasure house in the building. I happened to see this magic. For the cultivators who practice this magic, the more sophisticated the flying sword technique is, the stronger this magic will be. We have all seen your flying sword speed, which must be extremely suitable for this magic. In addition, your secret sword technique needs to be performed at close range. I think if you are proficient in this close-range escape technique, it will definitely be like a tiger with wings, so I helped you get it."
As the top force among the human race, Zhishou Tower has an extremely rich collection of skills and techniques in its treasure house.
However, the skills cannot be taught lightly. If one wants to obtain these magical powers, one must be a monk of Zhishou Tower who has made great achievements or accumulated a certain amount of contributions. Only then will he be allowed to select one or two treasured magical powers from the treasury.
"Thank you, Captain." Lu Qingshan thanked Xu Hao solemnly.
A method that fits his style so well obviously couldn't be like what Xu Hao said, he just took it.
This method must have been carefully selected by Xu Hao specifically for him.
Despite having such a precious opportunity to choose magical skills from the treasure house of Zhishou Tower, Xu Hao did not choose a method of his choice for himself. Instead, he used the opportunity on himself and chose the [Invisible Sword Escape] for himself.
This is already a very thoughtful gesture.
"What's there to thank me for? It's just a small thing. It can't compare to your life-saving grace." Xu Hao waved his hand indifferently.
…
Lin Yao left Da Xia Trading Company with a heavy heart and returned to Lu Qingshan's courtyard.
After wandering outside the gate of the courtyard for a long time, Lin Yao finally made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and pushed the door open.
Everyone in the room turned their eyes to her.
Lin Yao was stunned.
She hadn't expected there to be other people.
In addition to Lu Qingshan, there was actually a man and a woman in the room.
The three of them sat at the table, sipping spiritual tea, looking like they were having a very pleasant conversation.
Judging from the situation, this man and woman should be Lu Qingshan’s friends.
Lu Qingshan is meeting a guest.
Lin Yao felt a little embarrassed about her sudden intrusion.
The three of them did not try to hide their voices or movements. With the six senses of a Qi-refining cultivator, she should have been able to detect that there was more than one person in the room at the door.
Just because she was so preoccupied with things, she didn't notice the situation for a moment and barged in recklessly.
Su Shu glanced at Lin Yao and secretly praised her looks. Then she looked at Lu Qingshan with an ambiguous look and said teasingly, "Is this your Taoist partner, Qingshan? She is so pretty and really a good match for you, Qingshan."
Hearing Su Shu say this about herself, Lin Yao, who wanted to leave, blushed and hurriedly explained: "I am not his Taoist partner..."
Lu Qingshan's expression remained unchanged. He took a sip of the spiritual tea calmly and asked, "Captain, when are you and Su Shu going to hold a banquet to announce your marriage to a Taoist couple? I'll prepare some gifts for you."
If you explain to Su Shu, she will be more interested in you.
So Lu Qingshan showed no mercy and went straight to the killing blow.
Hearing Lu Qingshan's question, Su Shu was stunned. She secretly glanced at Xu Hao, who was like a piece of wood beside her, bit her lip, and stuttered unusually: "The captain and I are not what you think..."
——A terrible line that is almost exactly the same as Lin Yao’s.
Seeing Su Shu's cautious and nervous look, Xu Hao touched his chin and took the initiative to answer, saying softly: "Wait a while. There has been a big move in the building recently. It is said that there will be a big operation soon. After this matter is over, Su Shu and I will officially become a Taoist couple."
"Don't worry, your gift will definitely not escape."
Xu Hao and Su Shu have had feelings for each other for a long time.
Previously, Xu Hao was unsure of Su Shu's attitude towards him, so he did not dare to take any action.
Although Su Shu looks very bold, she is actually like an ostrich when it comes to her feelings.
So these two lovers have been together as teammates and friends for such a long time.
It was not until the life-and-death crisis a few days ago that Su Shu's emotions were revealed unconsciously, and the thin membrane between the two was broken.
After this incident, Xu Hao understood a truth: cherish the people around you.
As a cultivator, he will encounter countless dangers. Lu Qingshan was able to save him last time, but will there be another Lu Qingshan who can save him next time?
If there is something you want to do, don't hesitate, so as to avoid regrets later.
What he wanted to do most now was to become a Taoist partner with Su Shu.
So without hesitation, Xu Hao gave a formal commitment.
After hearing Xu Hao's promise, Su Shu was silent for a long time.
Xu Hao looked at Su Shu in confusion and found that Su Shu's eyes had turned red at some point.
Xu Hao was suddenly at a loss, not knowing what to do.
…
"Oh, yes. The captain and I came to you this time to talk to you about this matter." After sniffing, Su Shu finally explained to Lu Qingshan, "The owner of the Tantai Tower said that we will have a new mission in a few days. Although we don't know the specific content of the mission yet, this mission is a collective mission and all the Zhi guards will be mobilized. A mission of this scale must be a big deal. You should prepare well and be ready to act at any time."
Lu Qingshan's heart moved, and he nodded and said, "I understand."
Although the two of them did not know the specific content of the mission, Lu Qingshan knew it very well.
——It has been such a long time since he passed on the information about the rising prices of the three first-grade spiritual materials for refining corpse-strengthening fluid to Tan Tai Qingrun. With the power of Zhi Shou Lou, he should be able to get to the bottom of the matter. It is time to prepare to close the net.
After explaining everything that needed to be explained, Su Shu pulled Xu Hao up and said goodbye, "Then the captain and I will leave first. We won't disturb you anymore."
Lu Qingshan nodded.
As he was leaving, Xu Hao glanced at Lin Yao and added, "Looking at the situation, it seems I need to prepare a gift for you, Qingshan."
With the experience of Xu Hao and Su Shu, they could naturally see that Lin Yao and Lu Qingshan did not have that kind of relationship.
The reason why the two of them teased Lin Yao and Lu Qingshan like this.
Su Shu was just being funny and was making fun of Lu Qingshan just because of her personality.
And Xu Hao was obviously venting his anger for Su Shu.
Lu Qingshan curled his lips and didn't bother with Xu Hao.
