"I didn't expect that I could come back so soon." The old man Ying Bubai looked at Zhao Xu with a look of disbelief.
"The final scroll is indeed worthy of the name of Arthur's most powerful artifact. I just got close to it and everything I learned was mastered by it."
As he spoke, the old man Ying Bubai raised his head and continued to look up at the starry sky that was simply out of reach.
"It turns out that you just got the secret about the 'Power of Iron Heart' from it. It can only be said that everything that happens to a person is determined by fate. In this case, you should cherish some time and tell me what you want to learn."
At this time, the old man Ying Bubai seemed a lot more lonely compared to his initial attitude.
"I can't guarantee at any point in time, I will fall asleep again and he will come up."
"Then why, old sir, you were fine when you woke up, but when he woke up, this space became extremely chaotic, with murderous intentions hidden everywhere."
To be honest, if Zhao Xu had not awakened in advance, he would have been torn into pieces by these cutting powers.
Only then did he realize why the corpses hanging above seemed to be entangled in spider silk. Otherwise, it would have to be like hanging sausages, one in the east and one in the west.
"Because this place is for Ernest's other me, not for me at this moment. Naturally, when I am alive, everything will be fine."
As he spoke, Ying Bubai pushed Zhao Xu, who was still thinking, "Hurry up, kid. The content is true or false. If you turn around and say that Ying Bubai taught you, Antinoya will naturally check it again with you. Fan, why are you struggling with this?"
He seemed to be furious as he spoke.
Suddenly Zhao Xu hurriedly handed over his hand, never expecting that one day he would also be put on the shelves.
"Tell me, tell me your initial plan first." Ying Bubai took back the ancient weapon "Preacher" and directly inserted it into the soil and used it as a backrest.
Zhao Xu also understood that time was running out. The next time the middle-aged Ying Bubai woke up, he might not be able to forcefully awaken the elderly version of "Nine Swords Master" Ying Ergou.
Every time I learn more about the Nine Swords at this time, I will be more confident when the time comes.
Zhao Xu also explained his future career plan on the spot.
Immediately, the old man Ying Bubai stroked the scattered beard on his chin, nodded and said: "He is actually the greedy 'Red Jade Guard'. Sure enough, there is a god whose thighs are hard."
As he spoke, Ying Bubai pointed out: "You are essentially learning the Nine Swords to make up for the fact that mages are not as flexible as 'psychics' in 'actions', and the magical system of the archives cannot make up for it for you, so Speaking of which, you are indeed looking for the right one when you look for Nine Swords."
As he said this, he became a little tangled, "But the problem is, you are so strong now, who else can control you in the future? Even the true gods may not be able to round you up if they send their incarnations to earth."
"Forget it, if the sky falls, it won't be my underground prisoner's turn to worry about it." After Ying Bubai entered the teacher mode at this time, his eyes were obviously a little brighter.
"So your question now is which direction to choose first?"
After the topic returned to the Nine Swords, Ying Bubai's whole body seemed to be emitting golden light, and even the ancient weapon wooden sword behind him pulsed together.
"I just wanted to ask the old gentleman for advice." Zhao Xu said and squatted down.
Ying Bubai slightly touched the long beard on his chin and curled his fingers slightly, "It seems very simple. If you want to advance to the Ruby Guard, you must first become the 'Sword of Heaven's Punishment' (Crusader), and master the Iron Heart." If you can successfully get out of this trap with your strength, you will first become a 'military sword' (war blade)."
"It depends on what you plan to do."
However, Zhao Xu shook his head, "I also know this, but I have always known about one of the Nine Swords, but I don't know the details. I just want to take this opportunity to listen to your teachings."
For example, spell books, at least there are various research notes and spell summaries left by predecessors.
However, the Nine Swords system seems to still maintain the original one-on-one tradition of master and apprentice, fulfilling the rules that the law should not be passed down to the six ears, and the secrets should not be written down.
Unless you catch a "Nine Swords" professional by force, don't expect to be able to learn it easily.
Naturally, this kind of isolation has also caused the nine major schools of Nine Swords to be separated and not affiliated with each other, making it difficult to integrate.
Without the right to investigate, there is no right to speak, so no matter who Zhao Xu studies from, he can only see a fragment of this framework from the other party's "Inherent Nine Swords System", and cannot get a glimpse of the whole picture, let alone a comprehensive understanding.
But the Ying Bubai in front of him, according to his claim to be the "Founder of Nine Swords", then in terms of the "overview" of this teaching, there is no more suitable candidate than him.
Hearing Zhao Xu's request, Ying Bubai laughed, "I can't even walk yet, so I just want to fly."
"Then let me outline for you the key points of several professions."
As he spoke, the old man raised his finger and drew it in the void, and several fluorescent little people appeared instantly and began to dance towards Zhao Xu. The movements of the little people don’t look like random dance.
Zhao Xu also hurriedly used his real intelligence to prepare to memorize these action elements.
"Speaking of one thousand, Tao of ten thousand, I still have to tell you about this martial arts level first."
"The martial arts master level determines the highest level at which you can learn moves. For example, for an eighth-level white crow hammer, you must have a martial arts master level of 15 to learn it. But you don't have to worry, our Nine Swordsmen are not like you mages. So rigid."
"Theoretically, for the basic professions and advancements of the Nine Swords System, level 1 counts as level 1, while for non-Nine Swords professions, level 2 counts as level 1. So as a level 10 mage, you are a martial artist. The level is level 5, and you can learn third-level moves and footwork."
Zhao Xu was immediately surprised, "Then after I become legendary, and then I am promoted to the Nine Swords basic profession, wouldn't I start with a ninth-level move?"
"Yes, but the problem is, most of them also require you to master three or four moves of the same system first, so you still have no idea."
"Then the question is, what are the characteristics of each of the three basic professions: Crusader (Sword of Heavenly Punishment), Warblade (Sword of Martial Arts), and Sword Master (Sword of Sage)?"
"And in the Nine Swords Advancement, what are the respective advantages and disadvantages of Master Yufeng, Eternal Blade, Shadow Sun Ninja, Blood Claw Master, Nine Swords Grandmaster, Ruby Guard, Blood Blade, and Deep Stone Sentinel?"
"Listen to me and tell you everything."
As the old man said Ying Bubai, he took out a pipe from nowhere and took a deep drag. He looked slovenly, completely different from the elegant middle-aged version just now.
"But before that, I have to ask you something."
"What weapon are you going to use?"
