Rebirth of the Arch-nemesis

Chapter 67: Butterflies fly through the flowers

Views:

"I didn't expect that the Lingxin Sect also has such sword moves. Even that old demon Yan..." Xin Ji almost said something wrong and quickly stopped talking. He looked at Gu Pinglin with a different look. It shouldn't be too embarrassing to be defeated by such a junior.

Jiang Ruoxu and Leng Xu were both excited and confused. Leng Xu asked, "Junior brother, how come we have never seen this trick of confusing flowers and butterflies before?"

Bu Shuihan guessed: "It's you..."

"It's a new trick that Master has figured out." Gu Pinglin shook his head slightly and stopped him with his eyes.

"Uh..." Bu Shuihan reacted and realized that the matter was of great importance, so he hurriedly changed his words awkwardly, "Master didn't pass it on to us, which shows that he is biased towards you."

Jiang Ruoxu and the other man suddenly realized.

This move is enough to become the unique move of the sect. It is derived from the swordsmanship of the Lingxin Sect. The person who created this move must be very familiar with the sword formation of the Lingxin Sect. Although Gu Pinglin improved the skills first, he has only been a sect member for 20 years and has not yet formed an inner elixir. Logically speaking, he has not even learned all the advanced sword moves of the sect. How could he create a move by combining it with the sword formation? Duan Qingming is known as a genius in swordsmanship, and the Gu Ying swordsmanship he created is not yet mature. With his experience and experience, they did not think about this at all. It is normal for Yue Songting to create a move instead.

Jun Muzhi came back to his senses. He was very smart. He jumped to the side of Gu Pinglin and bowed with a smile: "You are a top disciple of Lingxin Sect. Your reputation is well-deserved!" He was worried that this person would use his favor to drag down the young master. Now it seems that Lingxin Sect is definitely not the second-rate sect as rumored. There is no harm in making friends with him.

Qi Wan'er did not hide her shock. He naturally knew the subtlety of this move. If the swordsman's cultivation was not insufficient, the power of this move "Flowers and Butterflies" would definitely be more than this.

A second-rate sect actually has such powerful sword moves. No wonder Duan Qingming is unwilling to stay in the Duan family. The future pattern of the cultivation world is likely to change.

The opponent was just Duan Qingming's junior fellow apprentice. Qi Wan'er couldn't help but feel uneasy when she thought about the gamble. After a long while, she hummed reluctantly: "This move is brilliant, but it is not pure. It is not the way of swordsmanship after all."

Although the words were awkward, they were very appropriate. What everyone was competing in was swordsmanship, not simply the power of the moves. He was barely able to save face.

Yao Feng shook his head: "The Way of Arrays and the Way of Swords are all Dao, the Sword of Kindness, Yao Feng admits defeat."

This move is both fatal and destructive, and it mainly traps people, which is in line with the Yao family's concept.

In the world of cultivation, the strong prey on the weak. Gu Pinglin is not really a kind person. When he was fighting fiercely with Duan Qingming, he eliminated many cultivators who were targeting the Lingxin Sect. Later, his Dantian was destroyed, and he completely gave up his principles and was no longer soft-hearted. However, he had been taught by Yue Songting for many years, and now he has awakened, and the murderous intent in his sword moves is far less than in his previous life. When he heard the "kind" comment at this time, Gu Pinglin also found it funny.

Seeing that Yao Feng and Qi Wan'er both admitted defeat, Jun Muzhi rolled his eyes and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Duan Liu?"

The sword state had not yet dissipated. Duan Qingming observed for a while before he said slowly, "After seeing it last time, I guessed there was a trick, and I have been trying to find a way to break it."

Gu Pinglin was waiting for his reaction. Hearing this, he raised his eyebrows: "Got it?"

Duan Qingming sighed: "Alas, it will be difficult for the time being."

Gu Pinglin asked, "How does it compare to the wild goose shadow in the clouds?"

Duan Qingming said: "The wild goose shadow in the cloud is still insufficient."

Gu Pinglin raised his brows happily.

The Goose Shadow in the Clouds has not yet been perfected, and its current power is indeed not as strong as this move. His comment was very pertinent.

"But..." Duan Qingming suddenly changed the subject, "I've come up with a new idea recently, maybe you can give it a try."

"Huh?" Gu Pinglin immediately became alert.

Among Gu Ying's sword techniques, the only ones that can compare with this move are the fourth move "Goose Shadow in the Clouds", the seventh move "Eagle Strikes Moon Shadow" and the ninth move "Magpie Bridge Shadow Dispersed". "Goose Shadow in the Clouds" and "Eagle Strikes Moon Shadow" both have a 50-50 chance of winning. If he encounters "Magpie Bridge Shadow Dispersed", Gu Pinglin will only have a 40% chance of winning. But the prerequisite is that Duan Qingming can use the complete Gu Ying sword technique. At present, his sword moves are not mature, and he only has the first five moves. The final move "Magpie Bridge Shadow Dispersed" is still unknown. Even if he has a trick up his sleeve, the moves must be immature. This is a good opportunity to test his bottom line.

Gu Pinglin quickly weighed the pros and cons and stepped aside to make way: “Please.”

Duan Qingming glanced at him with a smile, then suddenly tapped his toes and flew towards the sea of flowers.

Everyone exclaimed.

Gu Pinglin also frowned.

In the blink of an eye, Duan Qingming had entered the sword circle. He did not make any moves, was not on guard, and did not even summon the Mingfeng Sword. He threw himself on the purple sea of flowers like a big white butterfly dancing, completely unaware of the danger hidden in the sea of flowers.

Bu Shuihan quickly looked at Pinglin and asked in a low voice, "Is everything okay?"

Gu Pinglin stared at the butterfly without saying a word.

The flower wall in the sky was still being generated. Sensing the invader, the sword force began to take effect. The sword flowers in the sea of flowers suddenly grew larger, and all the flower walls and scattered petals surrounded the invader and pressed forward.

The space is getting smaller and smaller, and the butterfly is flying through the narrow gap, surrounded by dangers.

Everyone's heart was in their throat.

Suddenly, an unprecedentedly powerful sword intent erupted, rolling over like a tidal wave. Thunder rumbled faintly in the air, and the flower wall and sea of flowers collapsed one after another.

The collision of sword intent was blurry, beautiful and dangerous, and Butterfly was completely trapped in the chaotic sword intent.

Qi Wan'er finally couldn't help but applaud: "What a fascinating butterfly!"

Amid the admiration, Gu Pinglin showed no joy at all. He walked quickly forward and grabbed the railing with both hands.

It's fine if others don't know, but how could I not understand my own moves? The trap has not been completely completed, and the killing force cannot explode so quickly. It is obvious that Duan Qingming released his sword intent first, detonating the entire sword formation in advance!

Seeing the white butterfly flying through the sword intent, Gu Pinglin sneered.

Using the opponent's force to counterattack? It's not that simple! He really underestimated himself!

Sure enough, the sword intent that collapsed prematurely collided with each other and did not dissipate. Instead, it condensed into a purple sword mist. The power was weaker than before, but it still trapped the butterfly in the middle in time.

Everyone began to worry.

Before Gu Pinglin could feel relieved, the white butterfly suddenly disappeared.

"This is..." Before everyone could react, the disappeared butterfly reappeared, dozens of times larger than before!

It's not a butterfly, it's a sword light.

The Mingfeng Sword finally responded to the call, the light suddenly increased, and the sword shadow turned into a giant white butterfly. In an instant, the giant butterflies turned into eight, breaking through from different directions and completely dispersing the purple sword mist!

impossible!

Gu Pinglin looked at the butterfly shadows in horror and almost screamed out loud.

What kind of move is this? This is not any move from Gu Ying's sword technique at all!

The sword move was broken, the dark sword realm disappeared, the vision became bright again, the empty sea surface appeared in front of them, the salty sea breeze blew on their faces, and everyone seemed to be dreaming.

There was complete silence all around.

The eight giant butterfly shadows then dimmed, merged into one, and gradually shrank, until only a human figure remained in the air.

The famous sword returned to its sheath, the white robe fluttered, and the man turned around and landed on the bow. All the coldness in his body disappeared, and in the blink of an eye he turned back into a cheerful, gentle and elegant young man.

He panted slightly and sighed with a smile: "Ah, all my energy was drained away, but luckily, I succeeded by chance."

Only then did everyone react.

“Junior Brother Duan!” Bu Shuihan punched him on the shoulder and laughed, “Master always favored you before, and I was a little dissatisfied. But after seeing you today, I am convinced!”

Nanzhu sighed, "Brother Duan's swordsmanship is superb, this move must be the best."

Jun Muzhi had no choice but to nod, and said with a smile: "The Duan family is indeed the number one family."

He also realized that this style of move was completely different from that of the Lingxin School.

Duan Qingming brushed his shoulders imperceptibly and said with a smile: "This move is a variation of the Duan family sword technique."

Duan's swordsmanship was well-known and no one doubted it, except Gu Pinglin who knew that he was lying with his eyes open!

Not only did this move have nothing to do with Duan's swordsmanship, its power was also far beyond the reach of Duan's swordsmanship. Unfortunately, there were no inner alchemy masters here, and their experience was far from enough, so they underestimated the power of "Flowers and Butterflies" and this move, which saved them trouble.

But what exactly is going on with this move

Gu Pinglin was very familiar with every move of Gu Ying's swordsmanship, and it could almost be concluded that Duan Qingming in his previous life did not know this move at all!

This was his new creation. In just a few days, he used this new trick to break the trap of "Flowers and Butterflies".

The hands holding the railing slowly loosened, and Gu Pinglin's face looked very ugly. He couldn't tell whether he was upset or admired.

What went wrong in my life again

Not only Gu Pinglin, another person who wanted to vomit blood was Qi Wan'er.

He had a great talent for swordsmanship since he was young, and his comprehension was extremely high. The Qi family Chaoge swordsmanship he learned was also very famous, so he challenged Duan Qingming with confidence. Who knew that he was beaten by three people in a row today, and the blow he suffered was obvious. The Shushi swordsmanship was no less than the Yinlan swordsmanship, and it was not unfair for him to lose to Yao Feng. Gu Pinglin's swordsmanship was not pure swordsmanship, and he was not considered a loser if he was serious, but when Duan Qingming used this move, he had no excuse.

Duan Qingming smiled and asked him, "Cousin Wan'er, what do you think?"

Qi Wan'er's face turned pale: "My cousin is my cousin, why are you calling me that!"

"Your original name is Qi..."

"alright!"

Everyone tried to hold back their laughter; they didn't expect the Qi family's baby to have such a personality.

"Brother Duan deserves first place for this move." Yao Feng wanted to help but was powerless. He looked at Qi Wan'er apologetically, "No wonder all the Yao family members have to come out to gain experience and see the capable people outside. Only then will they know that there are always people better than you. Yao Feng is ashamed."

Duan Qingming said sympathetically: "It's just a game, don't take it seriously, cousin Wan'er..."

"Who said I shouldn't take it seriously?" Qi Wan'er gritted her teeth and interrupted him, "I, Qi Shisan, always keep my word. After this trip, I will never set foot in the Southern Realm again. Don't be complacent. We'll fight again in fifty years!"

He lifted his cloak and strode into the cabin.

Gu Pinglin looked at his back and thought to himself.

This proud child who had been praised by everyone since childhood did not lose his fighting spirit even after suffering such a sudden blow. I heard that in his previous life, he often competed with others in sword fighting, with both wins and losses. Just looking at his broad mind, it is not surprising that he would achieve such success later on.

At this moment, a soft and pleasant voice sounded.

"This move is extremely powerful. If the Duan family hadn't been so unskillful, their reputation would have been even greater," the speaker was actually the daughter of Ming Gong who was standing beside Nanzhu. She bowed to Duan Qingming from a distance and said, "Young Master Duan Liu has mastered this move at such a young age. He must have learned the true teachings of the family. He is indeed a genius. I admire him very much."

Although this lady Minggong's cultivation level is not high, her knowledge is extraordinary. This move is more than one level higher than Duan's swordsmanship.

Gu Pinglin couldn't help but feel a little admiration. Looking at her expression, he immediately understood a little and glanced at Duan Qingming with a smile.

Duan Qingming responded: "Minggong's compliment is too much, Duan Liu doesn't deserve it."

Lady Ming smiled and said no more.

Jun Muzhi quickly exchanged glances with Nanzhu, and the two understood each other. Jun Muzhi secretly made a plan.

Yao Feng asked: "May I ask Brother Duan, what is the name of this move?"

"This move is taken from the Duan family swordsmanship, but with some changes. It doesn't have a name yet," Duan Qingming tapped his forehead with his fingers, "Ah, why not call it Butterfly Shadow Passing Through Flowers?"

Butterfly shadows flying through flowers is indeed very appropriate. But combined with Gu Pinglin's previous name "Flowers and Butterflies", it has a deeper meaning. This is clearly aimed at breaking the move, that is, targeting the previous move.

Everyone looked after Pinglin.

Gu Pinglin clenched his fists and said calmly, "That's quite appropriate."

Duan Qingming smiled and said, "Junior Brother Gu also thinks so, that's great."

Gu Pinglin pretended not to hear.

Xin Ji next to him had a complicated expression. Following such a master, it didn't seem too disadvantageous.
