Chapter 49 You go out first
Zhou Heng's perception is very keen, especially after Insight +1.
Even when he was concentrating on practicing his internal skills, he could immediately detect any movement around him.
Now, someone is standing on the roof of his house.
However, after Zhou Heng's low drink just now, no one responded, and no subsequent sound came.
"Is he a thief?" He frowned slightly, subconsciously stuffed the banknotes in his arms again, and thought to himself: "Could it be that someone saw me when I was exchanging gold at the gold shop?
"Someone wants to steal my gold?!"
Wanting to be here, Zhou Heng immediately became angry, picked up the steel knife beside the bed, rushed out the door, and shouted sternly: "Who is here, come out immediately!"
"Your landlord is here! Zhou Heng, aren't you going to sleep!??" Suddenly the landlord's angry shout came from the main room, warning: "This is your last chance, if there is another time, I will raise your rent!" go to sleep now!"
Zhou Heng suddenly shuddered when he heard these words.
A little flustered.
However, he did not go back directly, but looked at the wall not far away.
Standing there was a masked man in black, holding a long sword, looking down at him from above.
"Who are you?" Zhou Heng frowned.
Zheng! !
The sound of swords sounded.
The masked man didn't say a word, and directly attacked Zhou Heng with his sword.
The sword light cut through the night sky and went straight for Zhou Heng's head.
when!
The swords clashed, and the masked man's sword was directly blocked by Zhou Heng's sword.
"Um?"
The masked man let out a light sigh, obviously surprised that Zhou Heng could actually take his sudden sword strike.
At this time, Zhou Heng was even more shocked.
Because while parrying the attack of the masked man in black, he received a system prompt.
"Kong Chengshun is using the martial arts "Thirty-Seven Night Shadow Sword Techniques" [Ninth Grade] to attack you. You successfully parried, and your proficiency level +0.2."
This is the true successor of the Changxing Sect that Lin Cang said came to Huangtong Fucheng to recruit outer sect disciples.
Kong Chengshun, the "Luxia Fei Sword" who is ranked 99th on the list!
"Isn't he going to arrive tomorrow?"
Zhou Heng was shocked and confused, and he couldn't figure out why this person came to attack him. Moreover, he always felt that there seemed to be other strange auras in the opponent's sword.
Zheng! !
At this time, another sword attack came, and Zhou Heng parried it perfectly again. Following the opponent's sword movement, he turned the blade and immediately turned defense into attack. He slashed out with one strike and slashed down with all his strength!
Kong Chengshun seemed not to have expected such a change in Zhou Heng's sword skills. The sword skills in his hands stagnated for a moment, which revealed a flaw that was not easy to detect.
But Zhou Heng, who had Insight +1, could not see this flaw and immediately took advantage of it and attacked with a sharp blade!
So, under the moonlight, Zhou Heng's blade was stained with a trace of blood.
Although Kong Chengshun dodged at the last moment, the skin on the back of his hand was still scratched by Zhou Heng's knife.
This sword made him completely understand the level of Zhou Heng's sword skills.
"snort!"
He snorted coldly, stopped fighting Zhou Heng, flew back, quickly distanced himself, jumped over the houses, and took advantage of the night to escape into the distance.
Zhou Heng did not continue the pursuit.
On the one hand, the opponent's movement skills are superb. Even if he has the attribute of agility +1, he may not be able to catch up with only the ninth-grade flying grass and eight steps.
On the other hand, he was a little afraid of the strange aura he sensed during the fight.
"Ghost aura? No, it's specious. Moreover, when we fought just now, my special attack on Yin spirits didn't work. So it seems that he hasn't been possessed by a ghost yet... But what is that aura?"
…
Kong Chengshun, masked in black, was speeding under the night.
He was returning to his carriage which was still on the road.
Tomorrow, as Kong Chengshun, I will come to Huangtong City for the first time.
Kong Chengshun covered the blood stain on the back of his right hand, his face hidden under the mask becoming gloomy.
This blood stain is not even considered an injury. Even if it is completely ignored, it can be recovered in three or two days.
But the significance of this bloodstain was something he couldn't ignore.
"The Sword Technique Transformation Realm, he actually practiced such a simple martial art as the Twelve-way Mountain Splitting Sword Technique to the Transformation Realm!" Kong Chengshun felt incredible when he thought of Zhou Heng's sword movement just now.
A ninth-grade sword technique was actually practiced to this level by that guy!
How old is he! ?
Under normal circumstances, when a martial artist cultivates a martial art to a perfect level, he basically reaches the end of the martial arts and can hardly move forward.
Only by being extremely specialized in a martial art, spending countless energy, and practicing it with concentration, can it be possible to break through the bottleneck, transcend the original level of perfection, and reach the so-called "transformation state."
Successful transformation is basically equivalent to improving your martial arts by half a level!
Greatly increased power!
But who would spend so much energy on a ninth-level martial arts?
From perfection to transformation, it takes an extremely long time, ranging from two to three years to five or six years, or even longer. Depending on your talent, you may never be able to achieve transformation.
But this Zhou Heng has only been practicing martial arts for two years in total!
"Genius, really a genius."
Kong Chengshun narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered: "But the Changxing Sect doesn't need geniuses now, at least not until the master gets the position of leader!"
Randomly, he shook the long sword in his hand.
This ordinary-looking long sword immediately turned into a rusty ancient sword with a simple shape.
Kong Chengshun looked at the ancient sword with admiration, and said to himself: "Thanks to the senior, if the senior hadn't asked me to test this kid, I would have really recruited him into Changxing Sect.
"Such a genius must grow very fast, which will add variables to the master's fight for the position of the head... Fortunately, fortunately. "
Buzz!
The ancient sword trembled slightly, and a faint light appeared, as if responding to Kong Chengshun's mood.
Kong Chengshun pretended to listen attentively, his face changed slightly, and he said in astonishment: "Is it like this? Such a genius may be favored by other sects, and it's not good to make enemies rashly. "
The faint light on the ancient sword flickered again.
Kong Chengshun hesitated for a moment, nodded and said: "Okay, I know, senior. "
...
The next morning.
Kong Chengshun's carriage slowly drove into the gate of Huangtong Prefecture City.
Tongchang Martial Arts Hall, Changsheng Martial Arts Hall, Longxing Martial Arts Hall, the three martial arts hall masters of the Changxing faction all came to greet him, accompanied by a group of ninth-grade instructors.
Zhou Heng did not come, he wanted to concentrate on practicing martial arts.
Huang Jingfu, Hong Kang, Lei Xiuyuan, the three as the hall masters, stood in the front.
Behind them were a group of instructors.
And behind the instructors were many people who came to watch the excitement.
A large part of them came purely to see Kong Chengshun, wanting to see what the young hero who could make it to the Human List looked like.
Although Kong Chengshun was only the ninety-ninth on the Human List, being able to make it to the Human List meant that his strength surpassed most of his peers.
Not to mention ninety-nine, even if it was one hundred, it was a real record.
He will become a popular figure that countless people pay attention to.
"Wow! Is this the hero on the Human List! So handsome!"
"It seems like giving birth to a child for him!"
"Luoxia Feijian! "Luoxia Flying Sword! !"
The crowd cheered continuously, especially from young girls.
However, some girls who had seen Zhou Heng and Sun Zhengping fighting secretly shook their heads, thinking that this Luoxia Flying Sword was not as handsome as Zhou Heng.
As for strength?
Is strength more important than good looks?
...
Passing by the lively crowd.
Huang Jingfu, Hong Kang, Lei Xiuyuan and a group of instructors welcomed Kong Chengshun into the Buwu Division.
At this time, Tian Chong, the general manager of Buwu, had already set up a banquet here.
Kong Chengshun took a short rest and then sat down.
But even at the banquet, he still held his beloved long sword and never left it.
Seeing this, Huang Jingfu complimented: "As the saying goes, 'a month of sticks, a year of swords, a lifetime of guns, and a sword is hidden with you', but there are really not many people who can do it. Mr. Kong carries a sword with him and nourishes his qi with the sword. No wonder he has been on the list at such a young age. "
"Yes, yes!" Hong Kang also nodded and agreed: "Mr. Kong has the talent of a master at first glance! ”
A fifth-grade martial artist can be called a master.
Lei Xiuyuan was obviously not used to this kind of scene, but since the other two masters were praising him like this, he couldn't be too unsociable.
However, Huang Jingfu and Hong Kang had already said almost everything they could praise.
What else could he do?
So he thought about it and said, "Mr. Kong has a bright future. In the future, this sword will be famous all over the world because of your reputation. It is really a blessing for it."
But as soon as he said this, Lei Xiuyuan shuddered, and felt a sudden chill in the air around him.
What's going on?
Did I say something wrong?
It's impossible.
Lei Xiuyuan was puzzled.
Kong Chengshun glanced at him and said lightly, "We should now discuss the rules for testing Zhou Heng tomorrow. Master Lei, you should avoid suspicion and go out first. "
