Volume 2: Achieving the Nine Heavens and Breaking the Cage Chapter 214: The Fourth Level of the Nine Thunder Art
Outside the ancient sword, things are changing. Inside the ancient sword, Gu Xiaoxing and Qiao Yanran have already reached the seventh sword!
The passage of the seventh sword looked no different from the other six passages. It was also three hundred miles long and had hundreds of sword-shaped runes. However, the sense of oppression given by the entire passage was far greater than before!
This can be seen from the changes in Qiao Yanran's expression. Since she stepped into the seventh sword, Qiao Yanran has become a little unnatural. This is because her body has sensed the extreme crisis and has a stress response of its own.
Although this feeling is far less than that of great terror, it also makes people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Gu Xiaoxing tightened Qiao Yanran 's small hand, and a mighty power as vast as the ocean emanated from him, offsetting the oppressive feeling coming from the passage, which made Qiao Yanran feel much better.
"Sir... are you able to do it?!" Qiao Yanran called out, feeling a little panicked. It was no wonder that she lacked confidence. In fact, in her perception, there was a great crisis ahead!
"Wait for me here!" Gu Xiaoxing let go of her hand, patted her head, then turned around and walked towards the passage step by step with firm steps!
In an instant, more than two hundred sword-shaped runes lit up and transformed into swords. Their light was brighter and their edges were sharper. These lightsabers were still at the great perfection of the Jindan stage, but they were qualitatively different!
If the lightsaber on the sixth channel was equivalent to a palm strike at the perfect stage of Jindan, then the lightsaber on the seventh channel at this moment was equivalent to a palm strike at the perfect stage of Jindan!
Even Qiao Yanran would have to deal with such an attack with all her strength, let alone more than two hundred attacks coming at the same time.
Gu Xiaoxing finally understood why no one had been able to get through the seventh sword for all these years. Facing these lightsabers that could not be completely destroyed, it was already difficult for an ordinary Jindan Great Perfection cultivator to deal with one!
Some more talented people, like Qiao Yanran, can handle two or three. Even those peerless geniuses in the Nine Heavens Domain can handle five or ten. Even those who are stronger can handle dozens of them, but this is probably the limit!
There are more than 700 lightsabers in the whole passage. Even if they are broken, they will reunite immediately. Facing more than 700 Jindan Daquan who do not care about life and death, even if you are extremely talented, you will feel helpless.
However, Gu Xiaoxing is an exception. He does not need to face more than 700 lightsabers at the same time. He only needs to face more than 200. At the same time, although Gu Xiaoxing cannot completely destroy these lightsabers, he can break them into pieces and absorb them!
This is Gu Xiaoxing's advantage, and also the reason why he has the confidence to successfully pass the seventh sword!
Facing the countless shining lightsabers coming from the front, Gu Xiaoxing used the same trick again and performed the Nine Seas Technique. A layer of golden light suddenly spread out with him as the center, forming a golden light ball, followed by the second and third layers!
In an instant, those lightsabers had successfully entered the Danhai that was spreading and appearing on Gu Xiaoxing. He immediately concentrated his mind and opened his mouth, uttering a word.
"town!"
The three layers of Danhai are intertwined and superimposed on each other, and the suppressing and restraining force contained therein is many times stronger than before. This is not as simple as one plus two equals three, it is still equal to one, a one with a mass far exceeding three!
When the sixth layer of condensed sea emerged, it reached an extreme point. No matter how powerful those flying swords were, at this moment, they were like being in ten thousand year old black ice, sealed by condensed air.
At the same time, endless thunder erupted, instantly filling the entire Danhai. Although Gu Xiaoxing's cultivation had improved, these flying swords were also stronger than before. He knew that he could not hold them back for long, so he activated the nine innate divine thunders in his body without hesitation. However, to his surprise, this time, the innate divine thunders could not even shatter those lightsabers.
A cold light flashed in Gu Xiaoxing's eyes, he raised his hand and grabbed, the nine innate divine thunders no longer bombarded those lightsabers, but all gathered in Gu Xiaoxing's hand, and finally, condensed into a blood-red giant sword!
As soon as this blood-red giant sword appeared, it exuded an endless sense of violence. Gu Xiaoxing held the sword in both hands and slashed it fiercely. Suddenly, a shocking sword light flashing with red thunder, with the breath of destroying everything, suddenly slashed out, and all the lightsabers in front shattered at this moment!
However, the blood-red sword light did not stop and finally landed on the wall of the passage. The whole passage trembled and a deep groove was cut out in it. This sword was terrifying!
Qiao Yanran was standing outside the passage. When she saw this scene, her eyes suddenly flashed with surprise!
Even Gu Xiaoxing himself was surprised. Before this, he had not been able to merge the nine innate divine thunders. However, after continuously practicing the Nine Thunder Art in the sixth sword to break through the bottleneck, and breaking through the cultivation of the upper and lower dantian at the same time, he actually did it after this try!
Being able to do this means that at this moment, Gu Xiaoxing's Nine Thunder Art has finally broken through to the fourth level. It also means that before his upper dantian breaks through to the great perfection of Jindan, he will not encounter any bottlenecks!
After one strike, the blood-red giant sword in Gu Xiaoxing's hand seemed unable to withstand it and shattered on its own. This was because his cultivation was still in the early stages of Jindan. Even if he forcibly condensed and fused the nine innate divine thunders to transform into a form, it only had the power of one strike, but Gu Xiaoxing was still excited.
However, this is not the time to relax. The next moment, he directly activated his soul-devouring ability, and the light stars that were transformed from the shattered lightsaber were immediately absorbed into his body.
After several hours of practice, Gu Xiaoxing slowly opened his eyes. His strength had been improved once again. At this moment, he finally understood why it cost so much to use the palm technique to calculate the things, because the gains were also not small!
This swordplay can truly be said to be destiny-changing!
Gu Xiaoxing's original intention was to cure Xu Qianxing, but cause and effect and fate are connected, just like when performing the art of palmistry, all kinds of changes are connected by lines!
If you change a person's life, it often changes more than just one person!
Moreover, this is just the clue calculated by Gu Xiaoxing using the art of fortune-telling. If one wants to truly cure Xu Qianxing, improving his strength should only be the first step. Later... there are causes and effects !
In the passage, the ravine that was cut by Gu Xiaoxing's sword has healed and returned to its original state. However, it is not just the passage that has recovered. After several hours of cultivation, the nine innate divine thunders in Gu Xiaoxing's body have also regained their power and are ready to fight again!
When Gu Xiaoxing swallowed all the more than 200 lightsabers in the latter part of the seventh channel, he finally reached the end of the channel. He thought that this seventh sword, which no one had ever passed through, would be different at the end, but after arriving there, he found that it was actually no different from the sixth sword.
There is still a cushion here, a "Lie"-shaped cushion, but the cultivation on it is more intense and more refined, and it has reached the limit that can be achieved in the great perfection of Jindan!
