Chapter 6 (1/2)
”Could she be using this fine thread to control the sword? But… considering how thin the thread is, how can she e direction?”
Before he could think about the wondrous thread any further, Qin Mu immediately sprinted away
Adeeply into the trunk of a huge tree with a dull thud
As if the sere alive, it twitched in tree trunk, yet couldn't pull itself out Soon enough, the girl floated over and grabbed onto the treasure sword's hilt, pulling it out in exasperation ”My White Tiger vital qi still isn't strong enough to control my sword as if it were an extension of my body…”
”Junior Sister Qing, it's already remarkable that you're able to shape your vital qi into thread and use it to control your sword for battle”
The boy who had ran across the river's waves with the girl arrived at her side and gave her a gentle s, not your cultivation This is why our ht us to the Great Ruins—to train and is In the past, all we cared about was cultivating, so we lack actual combat experience This little devil is our chance to participate in actual combat You'll be able to perfectly control your sith your qi right away”
The other three youths caught up with the pair, and one of them smiled and said, ”The little devil turned into an elk Since elk are very ni sword”
Senior Sister Qing regained her spirit and continued to direct her sword to stab at Qin Mu She gave lovely laugh and said, ”Senior Brother Qu, don't attack for now Leave this little devil for me to train my sword control on”
Senior Brother Qu was the young boy who had ran across the river with her He nodded at her words and said, ”Come, junior brothers Let us ad”
Questions swirled within Qin Mu's heart as he struggled as he dodged the sword chasing hi a sith qi? Could it be that the thread in the girl's hand is her vital qi and not an actual length of thread? Vital qi can be used to control a treasure sword to that extend? Will I be able to do that?”
When he learned to use a Pig Slaughtering Knife, Butcher only taught Qin Mu how to use both his hands to control the knife Butcher never taught hi in that regard
Seeing that fe her sith her qi, an idea formed in Qin Mu's Since qi could be used to control a sword, could his vital qi be use to control other things?
However, he didn't have ti continued to control her sword and have it pursue Qin Mu In addition to that, since Granny Si had turned him into an elk, he found his limbs to be inconvenient Even the vital qi in his body had become dormant and did not respond like it usually did
Chii—!
The sword flashed as it struck fro Qin Mu's back He felt a chill run down his back which was soon followed by the burning sensation of pain He could tell that Senior Sister Qing had ed wound his back
”This is bad! An elk ht be fast, but it's still slower than soain, I'm afraid it'll be difficult for me to escape as an elk”
As soon as he finished that thought, he felt his mouth suddenly start to split apart
Yet it wasn't actually histo peel away fro with the mouth
Qin Mu ied him to run At that ti from the space between his eyebrows It was the very needle that had pierced his Heaven Soul!
Soon enough, his head had separated from the elkskin
The sword sliced through the air, slashi+ng toward Qin My in an attempt to take his life Qin Mu leaped forith all the strength he couldseveral
Behind hi cut the elkskin to pieces Its htning Pursuing Qin Mu and trying to kill him had apparently improved her sword skill tremendously
Getting free from the elkskin hadin one of the youths traversing the treetops to land in front of hi off his escape route
Both of them were only about ten metres away from each other With this distance, they would run into each other in the very next instant!
Qin Mu didn't have the ti, he subconsciously utilised the leg technique that Cripple taught hi at the ground with his hands in place of his feet His legs, which were now in the air, twisted along with the rest of his body, increasing in speed until they rese top, he sped toward the youth in front of him!
The youth, as older than Qin Mu by a few years, smiled at him derisively
He raised both of his aron scales began to appear on his skin
”Green Dragon's Arms!” the youth cried
In the next instant, Qin Mu's legs collided with the youth's ar out twice, and before the srunted and lost his balance Qin Mu's onslaught forced him back
The youth's sleeves were torn to shreds, re around like paper butterflies Dragon claw tattoos could be seen on the skin of both his arms The claws coiled around them in a lifelike manner, and it was clear that the scales had come from those claws
However, both ars head on
”You hid iron weights on your legs?” the youth exclaimed, both furious and astonished
Both of his araze then landed on Qin Mu's feet ”Even your shoes are made of iron?”
Qin Mu got back to his feet and hurried away
Yet, the youth's words rehts strapped to his legs
Since Qin Mu was learning leg techniques, Cripple had requested that he wear iron weights all the time and made him promise to never remove them
As Cripple kept track of his progress, seeing that Qin Mu's body becaed hts strapped to Qin Mu's calves got heavier and heavier In addition to that, Cripple also had Mute the Blacks the weight
That pair of thick-soled iron boots weighed five kilograraras!
Cripple had asked Qin Mu to train until he could no longer feel the burden of the iron weights and boots Only after that was he allowed to take theotten used to the the
