Ji Ning stood in the open space in the forest, holding a bow and arrow, looking into the distance.
thousands of miles away.
In another part of Fangcun Mountain Forest, Ji Ning in black Taoist robe was standing here, and saw him wave his hand, and an arrow target appeared next to him.
"I want to hit the red heart of the arrow target thousands of miles away." Ji Ning in the black Taoist robe shook his head lightly.
The test of Hou Yi's archery: no use of divine sense, no use of elemental power or divine power to control arrows, only relying on the most primitive brute force to shoot arrows, and hit the red heart of the arrow target thousands of miles away. The red heart is one inch in size. Must shoot ten times in a row to be successful!
This test is very difficult.
Because the use of divine sense is not allowed, even ordinary earth immortals and loose immortals can barely see thousands of miles away with their naked eyes alone. As for the red heart of the arrow target? It is not clear at all. And because they are separated by thousands of miles, there are usually some trees, fog obstructions, etc., even if the eyesight is excellent, it is difficult to see clearly.
That is to say, to complete this test, one must first have a supernatural power similar to 'clairvoyance'!
With the supernatural power of 'clairvoyance', if you practice it to the extreme, you can see clearly even millions of miles or hundreds of millions of miles away!
Of course Ji Ning did not practice this supernatural power, but he practiced the even more powerful "Candle Dragon's Eye". Back then, Ji Ning obtained "The Upper Part of Candle Dragon's Eye" in the treasure house of the Great Xia Dynasty, which was enough to practice until he returned to the Void As for the level of gods and demons, after so many years in Fangcun Mountain, when Ji Ning relaxes, he will collect the Nine Heavens Aurora and refine them in his eyes to form natal candles!
Although it is very difficult to cultivate, Ji Ning has also cultivated to the second stage of natal candlelight.
Once the supernatural power is used, the naked eye is enough to see an ant within a hundred thousand miles.
"Try it."
Standing in the forest, Ji Ning cast the supernatural power 'Candle Dragon's Eyes', and immediately both of Ji Ning's eyes glowed like the light of a candle. If it was an ordinary cultivator and Ji Ning looking at each other, and Ji Ning deliberately released the power, the other party would feel that the eyes of the other party were instantly white, and then the world was completely dark, and they could not see anything.
It will temporarily blind, and even the weak will become blind directly.
"Huh, huh, huh~~~" As soon as he used his supernatural power, countless rays of light from a long distance gathered in Ji Ning's eyes.
The light reflections from countless objects were all captured by Ji Ning's eyes.
Big trees, creeks, lakes, mountain roads, everything is under the observation of the eyes.
Thousands of miles away, there is an archery target, and beside the target is the Second Primordial Spirit 'Black Taoist Robe Ji Ning'.
"Is it not allowed to use divine power to control arrows?" Ji Ning flipped his hand, and a black arrow appeared in his hand. The arrow was on the string, and he directly pulled the bow to shoot.
Wow!
Ji Ning's brute force is astonishing, he was able to toss a mountain like a toy, and suddenly the sky-level magic purple bow was pulled into a full circle.
Ji Ning sensed the wind...
the wind is blowing...
In archery, the most important thing is to sense the wind, and the wind has a great influence on the arrow. Ji Ning practiced archery hard when he was a child, but he didn't practice much after he set foot on the road of cultivating immortals. After all, that level of archery is enough. Even at critical moments, he can use Yuanli to control the arrows and make the direction of the arrows A small change can be made, so that even if the distance is too far and the shot is missed, it can be controlled and adjusted!
But now Ji Ning can't use Yuanli, and even Shenli is not allowed to control arrows.
"The speed of the wind... the variation of the wind..."
"about there."
"go."
Ji Ning's eyes were burning with the candlelight of his life, and he stared at the distance, and he let go of his fingers in an instant.
collapse!
The arrow instantly turned into a streak of light and flew straight through the air.
Wherever it passed, some big trees were directly penetrated, and the stone soil was directly penetrated, but under these external forces, and the blowing of the wind where it passed... It seems that this external force is not strong, but when the arrow flies over thousands of miles Outside, the gap is already astonishing. "Huh!" The arrows whizzed past about three miles away from the target.
"This..." Ji Ning's eyes were burning with the candlelight of his own life, and seeing this scene clearly, he couldn't help but be astonished, "The difference is so much?"
A difference of three miles
This is too outrageous!
"Try again." Ji Ning opened the big purple bow, and shot out the arrow again.
collapse!
The sound of the bowstring echoed, and the arrow turned into a stream of light and flew into the distance. This time, the arrow flew five miles away from the target.
"Huh?" Ji Ning frowned.
"Try again."
Arrows flew out one by one.
Some are three, four, five or six miles away from the target. And sometimes if you are lucky, you can get close to within a mile. Even the luckiest one flew over tens of meters away from the archery target. Ji Ning shot tens of thousands of arrows in one breath before stopping. For Ji Ning, whose strength is comparable to the gods and demons in the early stage of returning to the void, and whose body is even more comparable to the magic weapon of the immortal rank, shooting ten thousand arrows is very easy, but the mind is very tired!
"I guessed it would be difficult, but I didn't expect there to be so many problems." Ji Ning tried tens of thousands of times and found many problems.
Relying on brute force alone can hit the heart of an archery target thousands of miles away.
The first problem is that there are many obstacles such as trees and rocks on the road, and the arrows will be affected by the shuttle passing by, and the direction will be changed by a very small amount. Although the arrows shot by Ji Ning's brute force were extremely fast, the direction changed very little. But the accumulation of countless obstacles may deviate from a small range, and this small range will be a lot higher after the "distance of thousands of miles" is magnified.
The second problem is the wind!
Although Ji Ning realized the 'Way of the Wind' during the Fairy Fate Conference, his heart has long been able to fully integrate with the wind, and he has a very accurate sense of the wind. But the wind that Ji Ning sensed was the wind at the moment when the arrow was shot! And it was the wind around Ji Ning at that time!
When the arrow flies, the wind will change!
Especially where Ji Ning was standing, the wind might be very light, but five or six thousand miles away, it might be a strong wind.
Even if relying on the sense of the wind to blur the perception and relying on the speed of the arrow, it will still be affected.
…
Mainly these two aspects make it very difficult to hit the red heart of the archery target thousands of miles away.
"What should I do? By the way, don't I have the spirit of the magic weapon of the divine bow. He must know how the archers practiced arrows in ancient times." Ji Ning's heart moved, and he immediately used the magic weapon of the Luohu bow The spirit calls out.
Wow.
The boy in black appeared beside Ji Ning.
"Why are you looking for me?" The black-clothed boy saw Ji Ning holding a bow and arrow, "Oh, practicing arrows."
"Luo Hou Gong, I want to practice "Houyi Archery"." Ji Ning said directly, "However, to obtain "Houyi Archery", you must pass a test, and the test is that you are not allowed to use your spiritual sense to view it, and you are not allowed to use your divine power. , Yuanli controls the arrow, relying only on brute force, to hit the red heart of the arrow target thousands of miles away, the red heart is only one inch in size, ten consecutive shots are considered successful."
"Houyi Archery?" The boy in black exclaimed, "Little Master, can you get Houyi Archery?"
Ji Ning nodded: "But I must pass the test."
"This test is quite difficult, first you shoot a hundred times and show me." The boy in black said.
"it is good."
Ji Ning immediately shot another hundred arrows. Although he understood the problem, he still couldn't do anything. He failed again and again, and the gap was huge.
The black-clothed boy looked at it from a distance, but in fact, relying on invisible induction, it enveloped thousands of miles, and he naturally saw the target clearly.
"How?" Ji Ning looked at the boy in black.
"It seems that you still have some skills. I thought you would deviate by hundreds of miles." The black-clothed boy nodded, "The most important thing about this archery technique is the word 'accurate'. The more powerful the bow and arrow technique, the more Always try to make the arrow more and more powerful, as for the aim? The more powerful the arrow, the aim is difficult to change too much through divine power. So 'accuracy' is very important."
Ji Ning nodded.
"Archery, step by step first, let's shoot a hundred miles first." The boy in black said.
…
Under the guidance of 'Luohu Bow', Ji Ning started to practice arrows again. Although Luohu Bow has never practiced before, it can be seen that the masters of the past have practiced arrows, and they are ancient archers.
First is Baili.
After that, two hundred miles, three hundred miles...
Relying on the guidance of Luohu bow, Ji Ning practiced archery hard for nearly three years, and he was only able to hit the red heart of the arrow target at a distance of 1,200 miles, relying only on brute force. This one thousand two hundred miles is already an extreme, no matter how hard Ji Ning tries, he can't make any progress.
"What's the matter, this is how you practice archery in general. You have mastered the sense of 'wind' and the sense of 'heaven and earth'. Your arrow speed is also good. But why do I always feel that you are weak? What?" The boy in black was very puzzled.
After all, he used to just watch, he is not a sharpshooter himself.
In the past three years, Ji Ning also specially went to the "Immortal Palace". On the eighth floor of the Immortal Palace, he chose a bow and arrow technique for reference. Refer to it together with Luohu Gong, it is precisely in this way that it has reached such a level in the past three years.
"What's going on?" Ji Ning was also puzzled while sitting on the ground.
"Junior brother, are you still practicing arrows?" Laughter sounded, and a woodcutter with an ax and wood came over.
"Eldest brother." Ji Ning stood up and said shamelessly, "After nearly three years of hard training, Hou Yi still failed the test of archery."
"Houyi's archery is indeed extremely difficult, and the test is also quite difficult. Shoot some arrows for me to see." The woodcutter said with a smile.
"Yes." Ji Ning was overjoyed.
Eldest brother is the absolute number one in the ancestor's sect, even second senior brother Ji Dian and many other senior brothers and sisters consider themselves inferior, even when Ji Ning was chatting with senior brother Yinyue, senior brother Yinyue whispered, "Senior brother must be Dao ancestor level exists', the elder brother is so powerful, and he has lived in seclusion for a long time, I am afraid that he will also study "Houyi Archery", a top ten supernatural power in the three worlds.
Although there are quite a few disciples who study "Houyi Archery" under the ancestor's sect, none of them are very good.
With the ability of the big brother, I believe there are some achievements.
collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse! collapse!
Arrows shot out one by one.
Ji Ning tried his best to sense the wind and the universe. At this moment, the world and the wind are all in his heart. It was as if he had controlled the entire world, controlled countless winds, and even faintly knew everything about the changes in the wind in the distance, with a kind of deep perception. This state is the "Domain of the Dao" in the Dao of Archery. The main reason is that Ji Ning's realm is already very high, and there are many "winds" and "cosmos" involved in the Dao of Archery, so he can learn it quickly.
Arrows flew out one by one, and shot at the target thousands of miles away.
call! call! call! call! call! call!
Arrows kept within ten meters of the target, roaring past, and even with luck, another arrow hit the target. It's a pity that he just hit the target, which is far from hitting the red heart of the arrow target.
"Okay, you can stop." The woodcutter said.
"Senior Brother, please give me some pointers." Ji Ning said respectfully after stopping.
The woodcutter smiled and said, "Your foundation is solid, but you still lack the most important point."
"The most important point?" Ji Ning was puzzled.
"Yes." The woodcutter nodded, "Remember, the arrow is flying and the heart is flying. When you reach this level, you will be able to hit the heart of the arrow target thousands of miles away." After speaking, the woodcutter carried the ax and wood, Leisurely left.
Ji Ning stood there, muttering to himself, "While the arrow is flying, is the heart flying?"
