Synopsis: Despite having experienced innued paths of life, was there really so onto their conscience

Spring Water Fingering was one of the feats that Yan Wushi+ ell-known for He had defeated countless e used two verses to especially describe it One could see just how unique and exquisite this set of martial arts was

Nowadays, Yan Wushi+ her state

However, few people were aware that this set of fingering arts came from a set of sword arts

Yan Wushi+ was once a sword expert He had a sword that accompanied him everywhere Later, he lost the sword, and for a period of time, he couldn't find a weapon that he was satisfied with, so he siht that it would actually turn out well and that he would co arts because of it It had a tender and sensuous name, but only people within it could understand what kind of stor

If the person here had sharp eyes, then his eyes would have told hiraceful, and very soft It was as if he was si to brush away the dead leaves on the other person's shoulder But his finger had already turned into nues, so e” was his real hand

Shen Qiao was blind Since a blind person would not be confused by his vision, his other senses had become even sharper

What he felt was a tre toward hi down fro to crush hied back and forth This pressure was not evenly distributed either Rather, it followed the other person's finger, so down on his shoulder and so his neck It drifted fro it impossible to defend

Shen Qiao was totally wrapped inside this pressure which the other person had constructed It was like being surrounded by walls from all sides The dense layers of inner qi were like numerous tide waves He had nowhere to retreat, no place to advance Once he exhausted the inner qi inside hier as soft as spring water–to gently touch his body

Then the only thing left for him would be death

Shen Qiao only had thirty percent of his inner qi and was perhaps less capable than even a second-rate martial artist Normally, people of this level didn't even need to drea Yan Wushi+'s attacks But Shen Qiao's advantage was that he already had all of Mount Xuandu's ether with the two voluht not have enough time to make use of all the contents he had just memorized, the recovery of his memories meant that his ability to cope with the enemy had also been restored At the very least, he would not be as passive as before

Using his hand as a sword as well, he lifted his sleeve and made a pose

This was the opening move of Azurewave Sword Art–Mellow Breeze

Azurewave Sword Art was the exact sword art Yu Ai had used during his battle with Yan Wushi+

Even though Mount Xuandu orld-famous, it only had a few sets of martial arts As for sword arts, there were only two sets of them

Since Qi Fengge believed that the principle of martial arts was the same as many other principles in this world, it ultimately all came down to si many different martial arts, it would be better to practice and perfect these two sets of sword arts until one could control and use them freely as one wished

As its naentle and forgiving,in a cool breeze Shen Qiao didn't have a sword in his hand, and he therefore had to put out two fingers together as his sword After this s from the past

From his Dantian, his inner qi rose continuously and went upwards along Yangguan, Zhongshu, Zhiyang, and other acupoints They aggregated at Fengfu, then flowed towards Sidu and Waiguan [1] The other person forged his inner qi into layers of i toward hiuide his own inner force to his fingertip just in time

A white ht — this was the Sword Energy

The Sword Energy flew out, and Shen Qiao changed histhe ”Three Refrains of Zither” in Azurewave Sword Art, he pointed a few tier Each one of them directly pressed the nodes of this ”net” that Yan Wushi+ had weaved using his inner qi

With a deafening sound, haze rolled and closed in Sparks fell upon the net, adorning it like beads!

If anyone else was here, they would have seen a dazzling light bursting out between the two people Shen Qiao couldn't see with his eyes, but he was actually able to break through the other's attack by only relying on his grasp of Yan Wushi+'s inner qi!

Fro of Yan Wushi+'s assault to Shen Qiao solving it in the end, the people withintime, but for the bystanders, it probably only lasted for a second

Yan Wushi+ was a little surprised by this turn of events However, what folloas an expression of interest growing on his face

He collected his fingers together into a palure floated like a cloud or a phantom From different directions, he struck three more palms towards Shen Qiao

These three pal between h from the sky with a momentum so tremendous and boundless In co but child's play It was only at this ance and revealed their ferociousness nature underneath!

Three palms from three directions

Yet there was only one Shen Qiao who had only two hands It was i from three different directions at the same time

Shen Qiao chose to retreat

After he dissolved Yan Wushi+'s offense, no inner qi was blocking him from behind He took several steps backwards However, that was all he could achieve before the three palms from Yan Wushi+ arrived before his face!

However skilled Yan Wushi+ was, he was just a human He could not strike three palms at the same time Despite his fast speed, there had to be a delay It was just that the speed was too fast,it impossible to tell the order

But Shen Qiao could, because he was blind

A blind person didn't need to ”see”, they ”hear” instead

After he was injured, he had experienced so inable for him before These pains forained his old memories

There were also tirieved by his relatives' betrayal

Yet at this very moment, his heart was undisturbed

When he was still Mount Xuandu's sect leader, the state of his mind was placid too, but that was a kind of tranquility which belonged to someone who had never experienced any setbacks

However, the tranquility he was experiencing noas a result of hih the blasts, the storms, and all kinds of predicaments

When the raging waves ceased, thethe water and the sky into the same color

There were no waves, no ripples, no grief, nor happiness

It was like watching spring darkening the grass along the stone stairs or autu the layers of clouds upon the sky It was like seeing a well reflecting the lonely lantern hanging above it or the lass below

He was able to tell the order of these three palms Within an instant, like a lotus flower, his hand unfolded and closed again–he was using the ”Rising Waves in Mount Cang”, ”Sun and Moon Within”, and ”Purple Air from the East” of the Azurewave Sword Arts

If the disciples of Mount Xuandu were here, they definitely wouldn't have recognized that these inated from the Azurewave Sword Arts In Shen Qiao's hand, thesecoinal forms

However, if Qi Fengge were to return to this world, he would certainly be able to tell that Shen Qiao wasn't just using the forms of these sword moves; in fact, they were even beyond the fory and had achieved the realm of Sword Intent!

Sas the king of all weapons It had always been highly praised by people in the martial arts field Nine out of every ten martial artists out there used swords as their weapons Although for most of them, their skills couldn't even be said to have entered the hall of fame, let alone the discussion of realms

There were four realy, Sword Intent, Sword Heart, and Sword Spirit

For one to be able to control the sith their inner qi was an indication that this person had already reached the state of ”Sword Energy” This was so all Xiantian experts were able to achieve Shen Qiao had already reached this state before he lost his martial arts

He was extre practiced sword arts since his childhood, at the age of twenty, he had already broken through the fory” Afterwards, Qi Fengge passed on the re to hi script into his Sword Energy, his sword skills i continued as it were, co the ”Sword Intent” would just be a matter of time

Unfortunately, there was the challenge on Half-Step Peak Shen Qiao fell off the cliff, and everything suddenly came to an end
