Chapter 474 9 Clouds
Xiao Weiqing didn't say anything more. In the past three months, he had been mocked by Finch more than once or twice, and he had gotten used to it.
but.
Xiao Weiqing harbored a deep resentment and was determined to find an opportunity to give Finch a good beating.
He's always the one mocking others; when has he ever been mocked by others?
Time passed day by day.
Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
It has been half a year since Xiao Weiqing entered the training room.
"Ding-dong!!"
Inside the training room, the sounds of metal clashing could be heard continuously, interspersed with muffled noises from time to time.
"Keep it up, you've already made me sweat."
"kill!"
Xiao Weiqing launched a fierce attack. Inside the training room, cold light flashed, and the long sword in his hand became a blur, each strike faster than the last.
Before they knew it, the two had exchanged dozens of blows.
Finch held a silver spear, its thrusts as swift as a dragon, each strike containing mysterious fluctuations that caused the space to tremble.
Xiao Weiqing used his movement technique, wielding the Myriad Calamities sword, to retaliate.
However, the huge difference in martial arts skills gradually left Xiao Weiqing without the strength to continue.
After a five-minute struggle.
"Bang!"
The gun barrel struck Xiao Weiqing in the chest, and Xiao Weiqing was immediately sent flying by a tremendous force.
The battle is over.
Finch nodded approvingly, "Very good, great progress, especially in these last three months."
"Phew~"
Xiao Weiqing exhaled a breath of stale air and rubbed his chest. Although his ribs were not broken this time, the enormous force of the impact had shaken his internal organs and caused excruciating muscle pain.
Fortunately, unlike before, I didn't break two ribs every time we fought.
Significant progress has been made.
I have mastered twelve of the eighteen basic sword techniques, and in the past month alone, I have mastered four of them. My progress is getting faster and faster.
According to Finch, this was a case of accumulating knowledge and experience before unleashing its full potential.
I believe that the training of the next six forms will not take too long.
Put away the myriad tribulations.
Xiao Weiqing did not rush to practice the eighteen basic sword techniques, nor did he continue to comprehend the Starry Sky Martial Arts Imprint.
Instead, he spoke to a place where no one was around.
"Queen Snow Kite, are you there?"
"Of course I'm here, Xiao Qingzi." Xue Yuan's figure immediately appeared in the training room with a smile on her face. "Very good. Although your comprehension is not the best, your perseverance is commendable. Keep up the good work, and I believe you will pass the test soon."
Are you looking at me?
Xiao Weiqing asked.
"Well, I'm just bored. You don't mind, do you?"
Xiao Weiqing was speechless. You've already seen it all, what else could he say?
"Hehe, I knew you wouldn't mind. So, what do you want to see me about?"
Xiao Weiqing said, "I want to ask, has any news come from Qinglong Island in the past month?"
"Yes, three days ago, a message came in saying, 'Everything is fine.'"
"That's good."
Xiao Weiqing breathed a sigh of relief. Calculating the time, half a year had passed, and the entrance to the Luojiang Demon Realm had returned to stability. The demon race demigods did not attack immediately, so they should not invade for the time being.
but.
We cannot let our guard down. What we fear is that the demon race is waiting for the entrance to become larger and more stable, so that more demon demigods can enter at once.
There is even a possibility that the demon race is waiting for the other demon realm entrances on Blue Star to stabilize before launching a full-scale attack. This is also highly likely. Although the demon race is fighting individually, after the battle half a year ago in which two of the three demigods were killed, the demon race is unlikely to take any more risks.
Demigods hold an absolute dominant position among the demon race, second only to the demon gods in strength and status, and each one is a pivotal figure.
"What message are you going to send back?" Xueyuan asked.
Xiao Weiqing was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Tell them that everything is going well on my end."
Okay.
After saying that, Xueyuan disappeared.
Xiao Weiqing walked to the side, held the knife in his right hand, and began practicing the eighteen basic knife techniques once again.
Every cut was made with meticulous care.
The empty training room was filled only with the whistling sound of blades cutting through the air and the spatial ripples caused by the mysterious artistic conception spreading in all directions.
......
......
beginning of summer.
The southern part of the Great Xia region was the first to feel the heat, and the morning sun was no longer cool.
"Jiuyun City".
It is named after a lake within its jurisdiction.
Jiuyun Lake.
It consists of nine lakes shaped like white clouds connected together, and the surrounding scenery is absolutely stunning, with a spring-like climate all year round.
It is said that in the old days, this place was a tourist attraction that every person from the Great Xia Dynasty should visit at least once in their lifetime.
During holidays, this place is packed with people.
now.
A century after the spiritual energy was restored.
The scenery here remains the same, even more beautiful than before, but the crowds around the lake are gone.
"Even the numerous monsters in the lake deterred even extraordinary cultivators from venturing there."
"Old Chen, are you out of your mind? You keep repeating this every day. Aren't you tired of it? I'm tired of it too." A rough voice said in a deep voice, but judging from his appearance, the owner of the voice was only about 22 or 23 years old.
The one called Old Chen was actually a young man named Chen Jing. He chuckled and said:
"Wu Ze, you should know that my biggest dream is to follow in my grandfather's footsteps, become a tour guide, travel all over the Great Xia, and make money."
"Then you can only dream about it. Nowadays, monsters are everywhere, and the demon race could invade at any time. Only a fool would want to go on vacation."
Chen Jingdao said, "Then let's end this chaotic world. Didn't you always say that as the chosen one, you would one day wipe out the entire demon race?"
"I've been waiting for that day!"
Both were top-notch geniuses who joined the Demon Suppression Army right after graduation. At this moment, they were by the lake, hidden among the tall bushes and grass, joking with each other.
However, their eyes remained fixed on the center of the lake, never straying from it for a moment.
Yunmeng Lake is the most beautiful of the many lakes in Jiuyun Lake. Its beautiful scenery is like a dream, hence the name Yunmeng Lake.
now.
Yunmeng Lake is the focus of attention because of the passage above the center of the lake—the entrance to the Demon Realm.
"Cough~ cough~~"
"You actually believed his boasting?"
Wu Ze said somewhat embarrassedly that, as a fellow prodigy who had successfully awakened his second awakening before graduation, Wu Ze was much stronger than Chen Jing.
"Why haven't I seen you being this humble before?"
Chen Jing joked, "You know, Wu Ze's second awakening has brought his extraordinary talent to level 8, making him one of the top talents in the entire Great Xia Dynasty, and even on Blue Star."
Wu Ze said, "You've seen the video of Xiao Weiqing killing a demigod of the demon race. Who would dare to call themselves the chosen one now?"
Chen Jing nodded and exclaimed, "Yes, Senior Xiao Weiqing is simply incredible. He's only two years older than us, yet he was able to kill a demigod of the demon race."
"And here we are, guarding the gate."
Wu Ze shook his head helplessly.
