"Really?"
When the woodcutter came to inform him that he knew the whereabouts of the Qu Pu Si Snake, Zhao Rubi was overjoyed. There had been no news for the past few days, and he had thought that this kind of snake was extinct.”
"This…"
The woodcutter hesitated.
How could Zhao Rubi not know his scruples? He asked Liu Piaoxue to bring him a silver ingot." This five taels of silver is for you first. After you help me find it, there will be a generous reward.”
"There, there!" The woodcutter was so happy that he squinted his eyes and hurriedly put away the silver." It's not that I'm lying, but that snake is extremely ferocious. It moves like flying. Often, after seeing a golden light, it disappears. It's very difficult to catch it.”
"It's fine. I have my own methods."
Zhao Rubi's wish was about to be fulfilled. He didn't care if what the other party said was true or not. He packed some luggage and asked Liu Piaoxue to stay behind to look after the shop. He led the horse alone and brought the woodcutter. He had his hopes. He ran all the way. In less than half a day, he arrived at a valley. The horse he was riding on didn't dare to move recklessly. It paced around the valley entrance and didn't dare to enter.
The woodcutter refused to leave no matter what." Godly doctor, don't enter this place casually. Many people have barged in and died inside. If you want to catch snakes, just set up a net here. I…I'll take my leave!"”
He remembered that many people had died in this valley. Many ordinary people had falsely claimed that there were ghosts and monsters inside. How could they dare to go there? After Zhao Rubi threw him a silver ingot, he went there happily.
Zhao Rubi did not mind. Although his kung fu was only second-rate, there were not many second-rate people in the martial world. Among the six major sects, second-rate people were also considered the backbone. With this strength, what did he have to fear from a mere Snake Valley?
In addition, this must be the Dugu Sword Tomb, and there was a Pu Si Qu Snake inside. If an ordinary person went in, wouldn't they be bitten to death by the snake?
He also used medicine to refine the Poison-repelling Pearl recorded by Chang Qingzi. He put it on his body, tied the horse, and walked toward the sword tomb with his sword.
This sword tomb was uninhabited and overgrown with weeds. It was almost knee-high, and the weeds were where the snakes hid. Zhao Rubi directly used the sword in his hand to open up a path, opening up roads on mountains and bridges on rivers. Although his speed was very slow, he gradually entered the canyon.
Whoosh.
As soon as Zhao Rubi entered the area, he heard a strong gust of wind and a golden beam of light shooting toward him. His heart trembled, and he hurriedly swung his sword to slash at it. The golden beam of light was fast, but although Zhao Rubi didn't have a deep understanding of sword arts, he had been swinging his sword more than a thousand times a day since he was five or six years old. The power of this casual swing was almost the full power of his entire body.
With a clang, his sword seemed to have struck a piece of fine steel. He hesitated for a moment, but his zhenqi was extremely pure. As the sword slashed down, a small hole appeared in the golden light. Zhao Rubi quickly changed his attack. The original slash turned into a stab!
The long sword in his hand flew out and immediately pierced through the small golden hole. It was nailed to the mountain wall not far away, and the long sword directly sank into it.
"A Bodhi Qu Snake?"
Zhao Rubi was overjoyed when he saw that he had killed a Crooked Bodhi Snake. He took a step forward and directly peeled off the skin of the Crooked Bodhi Snake. He took out the snake gall and immediately swallowed it while there was still some warmth left. His stomach churned and he felt a hot air rising from his body. As he walked, he released it. As soon as the Qi approached the Golden Core, it was immediately cooked by a scorching heat and immediately absorbed into a part of the Golden Core. The rest was used by the Eternal Spring Qigong to temper the muscles and bones.
The medicinal efficacy of the Qu Pu Si Snake was astonishing. With its help, this mere snake gall had saved Zhao Rubi almost a month of effort. Moreover, his entire body felt warm, as if his strength had increased by a little."Awesome!"
"Eh? Could it be that this Qu Pu Si Snake had no natural enemies and had lived for so many years, so its medicinal properties were even more shocking?”
Zhao Rubi hurriedly scattered some medicinal powder around the area to drive away a portion of the poisonous snakes. At the same time, he looked around and saw that the number of Bodhi Crooked Snakes was shocking. There were usually two or three of them out of ten.
He also recalled that among the divine condors, only the divine condor could restrain and kill the Qu Pu Si Snakes. However, with the age of the divine condor, it was likely that it had long passed away. What other creature could restrain them? In addition, there were few people here, which became their natural habitat. After so many years of reproduction, their numbers had increased quite a bit.
This was too good for him.
Zhao Rubi was overjoyed. Now that he had found the Horned Bodhi Snake, he was not in a hurry to kill them. He still wanted to take a look at Dugu Qiubai's sword tomb. The sword tomb left behind by this sword grandmaster was probably more valuable than the Horned Bodhi Snake.
He abandoned those Qu Pu Si Snakes and went straight to the sword tomb.
This valley was sparsely populated, but it didn't take him much effort to find the location of the sword tomb. In front of the sword tomb, there was a tombstone---Brother Condor's tomb. Brother Yang Guo stood there, but when the divine condor's life came to an end, Yang Guo sent it back to the sword tomb and built a tomb for it.
Behind it was the sword tomb that Dugu Qiubai had built. Even if the divine eagle died, it would use its soul to protect the sword tomb.
Zhao Rubi also looked at the sword tomb that Dugu Qiubai had personally built. There was a portion of Dugu Qiubai's will on it. He also recalled the realm of Dugu Qiubai's sword path.
[Sword Realm: Dugu Qiubai used a sword to roam the Jianghu before he was even a teenager. It is indeed extraordinary.] However, Dugu Qiubai's internal art before the age of twenty should not have been practiced to a very deep level. Therefore, sword techniques at the level of sharp swords probably relied on exquisite moves to defeat all martial arts in the world.
[Soft Sword Realm: Dugu Qiubai's exquisite sword moves will only become more and more exquisite. However, as he grows older, his internal energy will become more and more profound. It is estimated that the sword technique of the soft sword realm is a combination of internal energy and moves that have reached the realm of perfection.]
[Heavy sword realm: There are only a few simple and ordinary moves such as sweeping, chopping, and stabbing. However, no matter what move you use, I can deal with you with just one simple move. Heavy swords mainly rely on internal strength to win. Heavy swords have no edge and are not skillful.]
[Wooden Sword Realm: Every blade of grass and tree can be turned into a sharp sword. It has the strength of a flying flower and plucking leaves. It can stimulate a terrifying sword aura that is extremely powerful. As the original novel Zhou Gang and Yang Guo once analyzed, there are two ways to use a wooden sword to defeat an enemy: 1. Abundant internal strength, strong enough to subdue the weak. 2. Light and agile, using speed to beat slowness. Both ideas were very realistic. As for which one Dugu Qiubai belonged to, it was unknown.
[Swordless Realm: It's hard to say the highest realm. The highest realm of martial arts might not be martial arts. Dugu Qiubai's mood back then was already extremely sad when he knew that there was no one in the world who could match him. He had no sword in his hand, but he had a sword in his heart. He could probably gather a sword with just a thought, and the sword will would reach the heavens.]
……
In front of him, Zhao Rubi also saw the changes in the Sword Catacomb.
No matter what kind of person they were, they would become a pile of rotten bones after the baptism of time. Even the words on the sword tomb in front of him were gradually blurring. They could not give Zhao Rubi any use. Even if he dug the tomb, it would be useless. Zhao Rubi looked unlucky.”
Originally, this was a good opportunity to comprehend the Dao. Zhao Rubi felt it was a pity that it had slipped away from his eyes.
He swam around. As he walked, he suddenly saw a stone wall not far away. There were many marks on it, and it was very messy. With his eyes, he could tell that they were carved by a sword. Every mark had an inexplicable pattern.
"Eh? This is…"
Zhao Rubi stood in front of the stone wall and was slightly stunned.
This was because his spirit was strong enough to perceive the wonders of the stone wall. Ordinary people would not be able to notice anything. Zhao Rubi cultivated the Soul Shifting Art, so his spirit was tenacious and stronger. When his spirit came into contact with the stone wall, he immediately felt sword qi rushing towards him.
Zhao Rubi immediately felt as if he was in an endless void. Streams of sword intent were charging at him. He hurriedly used his will to raise his sword to fight against the other party. It was as if he had experienced centuries. The sword technique in his heart could not withstand a single blow compared to this sword intent. The sword technique he had cultivated for so many years could not withstand it at all. His mental strength danced in the stone wall figure. It was blasted out.
After an unknown period of time, Zhao Rubi felt as if he had just been fished out of the water. He was drenched in cold sweat and sat on the ground. However, he immediately knew that he could not last more than fifteen minutes in front of this stone wall. His spiritual energy was exhausted, and he farted. He sat on the ground and panted heavily.
"This…this is the sword mark that Dugu Qiubai carved on the wall with his own sword intent? After so many years, he was still this powerful?”Zhao Rubi muttered to himself. At the same time, he also understood that Yang Guo probably did not discover this stone wall back then. After all, there were very few people like him who had a very strong mental cultivation. Later on, Yang Guo had that kind of cultivation, but his martial arts had already been fixed. Naturally, he did not take it seriously. Now, he had benefited from it.
There were no sword techniques here, but there was a sword intent. As long as he continued to fight with this sword intent, it would be no less than a sword grandmaster guiding him. This was not an opportunity that ordinary people could get. He immediately scattered a large amount of medicinal powder around him and sat cross-legged to comprehend the enlightenment he had just obtained. Like a sponge, he absorbed the essence and strengthened himself.
He sat there for a day and a night. When he woke up, he was naturally hungry. He raised his sword and killed the Bodhi Crooked Snakes. He took the snake gall and refined his bones and muscles. Then, he rushed up and used his mental energy to look at the stone wall.
