Volume 17: The Sentimental Swordsman and the Ruthless Sword (Part 2) Chapter 382 Left-handed Sword Technique
It is by no means easy to practice left-handed sword.
There are many people in the martial arts world who are willing to practice left-hand sword, but not many can really do it well.
As we all know, if you hold the sword with your left hand, then all sword moves and footwork will naturally come from the other direction.
If two people are fighting with swords, and you use an ordinary move "Pine Trees Welcoming Guests", your opponent may know what move you are going to use just by looking at the movement of your shoulders and arms.
However, if the position of this move "Pine Trees Welcoming Guests" is changed and used by the left hand instead of the right hand, even if the opponent can guess this move after a little thought, he will definitely be three points slower in responding.
When masters compete with each other, they cannot afford to be slow even for a moment.
Therefore, masters who use left-handed swordsmen often rack their brains to find ways to make their swordsmanship weird, tricky, and mysterious, making it more difficult for others to guard against them.
But Jing Wuming believed that in the past hundred years, no other swordsman's left-hand sword skills could be as mysterious and unpredictable as his.
Although his eyes were completely dead gray, that absolute dead gray color also represented his character that would not be easily moved.
This is also a kind of confidence !
Jing Wuming asked slowly: "You can also use the left-handed sword?"
Su Weiyun said: "Maybe I know a little more than you."
Jing Wuming said nothing.
He only drew his sword.
His body suddenly jumped out, and the tip of his sword trembled slightly, like a ghostly shadow coming from the depths of hell, so fast that it was almost impossible to capture with the naked eye.
call!
In an instant, he had circled Su Weiyun back and forth three times and attacked her six times!
He only moved his hands six times, but stabbed out twelve times!
Backhand sword!
Jing Wuming not only used the left-hand sword, but also the back-hand sword.
Every time he attacked with his sword and passed through Su Weiyun, the way he held the sword would change extremely quickly in that instant.
Then he switched sides and immediately stabbed Su Weiyun again from behind, stabbing Su Weiyun in the lower back!
The backhand sword is rarer and more difficult to practice than the left-hand sword, but once you have mastered it, it will definitely have the excellent effect of catching the opponent by surprise and attacking them when they are unprepared!
Who could have thought that after the enemy moved past, he could still stab with a sword at the critical moment?
Jing Wuming passed by Su Weiyun for the sixth time, and finally stopped straight without drawing his sword again.
When he attacks, he is as swift as the wind; when he stands still, he is as tenacious as a solitary plum blossom.
Everyone in the hall was stunned.
They might not be able to see Jing Wuming's backhand sword, but they had never seen such fast movements.
Buzz!
The sound of swords rang out.
The sword of immortality in Su Weiyun's left hand was still trembling.
In an instant, he received twelve consecutive sword strikes from Jing Wuming. The sword force was so destructive and intense that if it were an ordinary sword, it would have broken long ago.
Tang Du and others who were standing aside couldn't tell who won or lost, or who had the upper hand, so they had to stare at them closely, afraid of missing any details.
Unexpectedly, Jing Wuming no longer drew his sword.
He suddenly said, "In this world today, there are probably no more than five people who can steadily take on those twelve swords just now."
Su Weiyun said: "Fortunately, I am one of them."
As soon as the word "一" came out, he also drew his sword.
He raised his left leg and crossed his legs, assuming a strange and mysterious posture. His whole body floated up, with the tip of his sword pointing directly at Jing Wuming.
This move of "Returning to the West with Only One Shoe" may not be as fast as Jing Wuming's backhand sword, but its exquisiteness is no less.
When Su Weiyun flew into the air, his entire aura had completely disappeared, becoming traceless and unpredictable.
He was clearly right in front of people, in the center of the hall, but that was the feeling he gave people.
Jing Wuming's expression remained unchanged. He suddenly crouched down and stabbed a sword from the ground up into the sky. The move of this sword was not very good-looking, but it had a momentum of no return.
The place where he stabbed was exactly "the shoe".
——That is the Yongquan point under Su Weiyun’s right foot.
In just a moment, he determined that that was the only flaw.
Su Weiyun's aura has completely disappeared, only the shoe on his right foot is still connected to the world. This is the most subtle point and also the key to breaking the move!
Since Su Weiyun learned this move, Jing Wuming was the first person to see the flaw in this move.
"good!"
Su Weiyun said "good" but his body movements changed again.
He also folded his straight right leg and joined it with his left leg, intertwining them and stacking them together, fitting perfectly into a meditation posture.
Jing Wuming raised the tip of the sword in his left hand suddenly upwards, trying to pierce Su Weiyun.
At this moment, Su Weiyun's body suddenly spun, like a lotus flower blooming in the flourishing age, so sacred that an indescribable magical change occurred.
Jing Wuming's sword was about to pierce his lower body, but was pushed back by Changsheng Sword. His internal energy surged and he pushed it back with tremendous force.
The sword was immediately straightened and placed horizontally in the air. Su Weiyun's body fell down and sat right on his sword.
The Sword of Immortality was cleverly turned and gently handed out, and it had already reached Jing Wuming's throat.
Jing Wuming suddenly didn't dare to move.
He had stood up, his left arm still raised. Su Weiyun seemed to be weightless, sitting cross-legged on his sword, not showing any effort at all.
Su Weiyun said: "You lost."
A glimmer of light finally appeared in Jing Wuming's deathly gray eyes. There was no panic, no fear, but an expression that was mixed with loss, regret, yet with some relief.
Su Weiyun added: "Your defeat was not unjust."
Jing Wuming said: "I know."
Su Weiyun said: "I use the sword technique created by Bodhidharma, the founder of the past. The magic of it is even better than your left-hand sword."
Jing Wuming asked: "Dharma also uses his left hand?"
Su Weiyun said: "A sword is a sword, why should we distinguish between the left hand and the right hand?"
Jing Wuming was silent for a while, then said, "You are right."
Su Weiyun said: "I learned this move 'Dharma Facing the Wall' after spending more than a year in the cave of Bodhidharma, and studying it hard."
Jing Wuming said: "This is not a fluke."
Su Weiyun said: "Everything in the world is born and gathered by fate. Whether you beat me or I beat you, it is all luck."
Jing Wuming suddenly fell silent, as if he was carefully savoring the profound meaning of this sentence.
A long time passed.
Neither of them had moved yet.
Jing Wuming said, "Someone once told me that there must not be a second left-handed sword in the martial arts world, nor a second Jing Wuming. Even if there can be one in the future, it is absolutely not possible now!"
Su Weiyun asked: "Do you think I am the second left-hand sword?"
Jing Wuming said slowly: "You are the first one, and I am the second one."
Su Weiyun asked: "So you are no longer the only one?"
Jing Wuming showed a very strange look in his eyes and said, "I am no longer one. Just kill me. Your left-hand swordsmanship is better than mine, so I am destined to have no right to live."
Su Weiyun suddenly asked: "Why? If a person is not the only one, does he have to die?"
Jing Wuming said calmly: "Because once you lose your unique status, you will no longer be feared or valued. There is no point in living for such a person."
Su Weiyun asked: "Who said this?"
"I said so."
Jing Wuming did not answer.
It was another person who was speaking.
