Chapter 1175
Senior brother, your injury?”
Chen Dong was a little hesitant.
Huo Zhenxiao smiled faintly, “It’s not a problem, a small injury.”
“Then I’ll use the wooden bar too, the Bladeless Heavy Sword is too heavy.”
Still a little worried, Chen Dong put down the Bladeless and prepared to break the wooden bar.
“Just use the Bladeless, it’s your weapon, you’ll be using him to kill people in the future too, not the wooden bar.”
Huo Zhenxiao’s back was straight and his aura was stern, like a sharp sword out of its sheath, he said confidently, “At least I am your senior brother, you still have to practice for a few years if you want to hurt me, don’t worry.”
“That’s good.”
Chen Dong nodded his head and took a deep breath to calm himself down.
In the room, the atmosphere was solemn all of a sudden.
The next second.
Chen Dong brazenly raised his Bladeless Heavy Sword and charged towards Huo Zhenxiao.
Huo Zhenxiao’s gaze was fixed as he held the wooden bar and directly met Chen Dong.
Boom!
A powerful wind roared, overwhelming the mountains.
It was fancy-free and simple and brutal.
Chen Dong brought the “great ingenuity” of the bladeless heavy sword into full play as he slashed directly towards Huo Zhenxiao.
Feeling the strong wind in his face.
Huo Zhenxiao’s pupils constricted, and the oppressive feeling of a great mountain crushing down on his head made his heart jump.
In a flash of lightning.
Huo Zhenxiao twisted his waist and swept past the bladeless sword, while the wooden bar in his hand touched the bladeless sword with a momentum that seemed to be gentle but was actually as fast as lightning.
Just this touch alone.
Chen Dong’s face changed dramatically as he felt that the momentum of the blade’s slash had been sharply reduced by Huo Zhenxiao!
Almost simultaneously.
The corners of Huo Zhenxiao’s mouth curled up into a smile, and the wooden bar in his hand did not retreat as soon as it touched the bladeless sword.
Instead, as if glued to the Bladeless Heavy Sword, his feet shifted and he swam his stance, quickly driving Chen Dong to stagger and walk.
“What’s going on here?”
Chen Dong held the Bladeless Heavy Sword in his hand, his face full of shock.
He tried to draw the Bladeless Heavy Sword back, but at this moment, the Bladeless Heavy Sword felt to him as if it was caught in a mire, stuck to a wooden bar by Huo Zhenxiao, frozen in place and unable to draw back!
Huo Zhenxiao’s seemingly simple stance and the way he wielded the wooden strip had sent a shock through Chen Dong’s heart!
At least, with Chen Dong’s current martial arts realm, he could not do this at all!
The difference …… was simply clouds and mud!
“This is called overriding!”
Huo Zhenxiao swam on his feet, holding the Bladeless Heavy Sword and Chen Dong by the wooden bars, stumbling haphazardly with his pace, “Right now, it’s me overriding you, and all you have to do is to override your Qi like I did!”
Boom!
There was a loud bang in Chen Dong’s mind, and in an instant, all his attention fell on the bladeless heavy sword and wooden bars that were glued together.
For a moment, thoughts flew around, and even his eyes became hollow from too much concentration.
The scene in front of him, along with Huo Zhenxiao’s words, was like a heavy hammer smashing into Chen Dong’s mind.
It left him with a vague sense of seemingly understanding.
“The martial dao also has the saying that the body moves at will, martial you can do that, promoted to the level of the dao, and you don’t understand?”
Huo Zhenxiao’s left hand was behind his back, his right hand holding the wooden bar, gently shifting, always glued to the bladeless heavy sword, and his feet were also moving quickly, driving Chen Dong to stagger and move.
One cloudy and breezy.
The other staggered in disarray.
The difference in strength was obvious to anyone with a discerning eye!
Seeing Chen Dong’s vacant gaze fall into thought, Huo Zhenxiao held back while following his lead.
“You see, my wooden strip is not as good as your Bladeless Heavy Sword, but I am able to restrain you, as if you and the Bladeless Heavy Sword are the ‘Qi’ flowing in your body. I have fixed you and the Bladeless Heavy Sword to my strip of wood and to my stride.”
Huo Zhenxiao’s gaze was stern as he slowly said, “The same is true of ‘Qi’, once you understand this, you will be able to use ‘Qi’ like your arm and strike wherever you want!”
The words had just fallen.
Huo Zhenxiao’s expression was stern, and his footsteps suddenly lurched.
At the same time, the wooden bar in his hand swung violently and struck the bladeless heavy sword with a “thud”.
Chen Dong, who was pondering, did not wait for his footsteps to stop before he felt a huge force coming from the bladeless heavy sword.
“Now …… does it make sense?”
Huo Zhenxiao stood loftily in place, holding the wooden bar in his right hand as he looked down from above at Chen Dong on the ground, “That blow just now was as if you were above Qi before you could strike it out, only when you are above it can you do as you please and strike wherever you want!”
“I, I seem to have some understanding!”
Chen Dong nodded, but his brow furrowed even deeper.
Huo Zhenxiao’s guidance was opening up a direction for him that he hadn’t considered before.
And it was only a direction!
One still had to delve into one’s own senses on exactly how to operate in practice.
After all, it was like Huo Zhenxiao taking a strip of wood to restrict his bladeless heavy sword, which seemed simple, but in reality, Chen Dong asked himself, he couldn’t do it himself!
“Then continue!”
Huo Zhenxiao nodded: “A filial son comes out from under a stick, hit it a few times and you will know.”
Chen Dong moved with a start, “Senior brother, you’re taking advantage of me!”
“We’re brothers, what’s the point of taking advantage?”
Huo Zhenxiao waved his hand calmly.
Chen Dong: “? 0?”
Can you play like that?
After taking a deep breath, Chen Dong stood up holding his Bladeless Heavy Sword.
Huo Zhenxiao calmly said, “I’ve already taught you a move just now, you can attack at will now, only when you get into a real battle can you focus more on trying to use ‘Qi’, don’t worry about me, if I can’t even move you, how can I be the master of the Great Snow Dragon Riding Army? ”
“Many thanks, senior brother!”
Chen Dong said with heartfelt gratitude, and the last trace of worry about Huo Zhenxiao’s body dissipated.
The next second.
Chen Dong dragged his bladeless heavy sword backwards, his body was like a running thunder, and he dashed towards Huo Zhenxiao brazenly.
Huo Zhenxiao’s eyes glowed with a brilliant aura, and a vague battle intent surged.
Boom!
Qi swept up from beneath Huo Zhenxiao’s feet, cracking the ground inch by inch.
Immediately, Huo Zhenxiao was holding the wooden bar and pounced on Chen Dong like a fierce tiger coming out of its cage.
A gust of wind howled.
Chen Dong raised his bladeless heavy sword and slashed at Huo Zhenxiao with another fancy sword.
“Still coming?”
Huo Zhenxiao’s heart fluttered as he smiled and waved the wooden bar to meet him.
But then, in mid-air, there was a sudden change!
With a loud shout from Chen Dong, the heavy bladeless sword that had fallen in a titanic manner changed its direction in the air and slashed directly towards Huo Zhenxiao’s abdomen.
Huo Zhenxiao’s face changed dramatically.
In a flash of lightning, he directly put the wooden bar up in front of his body to block it.
Squeak ……
The bladeless heavy sword grazed the wooden bar.
Not good!
Huo Zhenxiao’s heart and soul shook.
In a snap of his fingers.
Chen Dong’s tiger strides and lunges behind Huo Zhenxiao, using his momentum to make the bladeless sword rotate around the wooden bar, and then the hilt of the sword smashes into Huo Zhenxiao’s back with a “bang”.
The two men’s movements came to a screeching halt.
Chen Dong’s expression stretched and he woke up with a startled look.
“I’m sorry, senior brother, I… I was so engrossed in the battle just now that I missed for a moment!”
Huo Zhenxiao stood loftily in place, as if the smashing blow he had just delivered had no effect at all.
He waved his hand, “It’s alright, I was the one who told you to fight with all your might, and only fighting can make you feel enlightened quickly, it’s not like you could have hurt me, with such a blow, if I couldn’t withstand it then I wouldn’t be Huo Zhenxiao.”
At these words.
Chen Dong let out a sigh of relief.
“It’s about time to point you out, remember everything you just did, remember it was overriding, just plain overriding!”
Huo Zhenxiao threw away the wooden strip, “I still have to go take care of military affairs, I’ll come back to give you company when I’m free.”
After saying that, it was to turn around and quickly walk towards the outside of the room.
By the time Chen Dong returned to his senses, Huo Zhenxiao had already walked out of the room.
Looking at Huo Zhenxiao, who was in a hurry, Chen Dong did not doubt that there was no other way. After all, the entire defence of the northern frontier came from the hands of senior brother alone, so it was impossible for him not to have heavy military duties.
The wind and snow howled.
The cold wind is biting.
Under the dim light.
Huo Zhenxiao was in a hurry, his face flushed and solemn.
After walking a long distance away, he was sure that Chen Dong would not notice.
Huo Zhenxiao suddenly opened his mouth and a mouthful of fresh blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Huo Zhenxiao cursed in anger, “Gan Linniang! This kid is really something!”
Chapter 1176
Ling driving, ling driving, ling driving ……”
Inside the room, as Huo Zhenxiao left, Chen Dong sat on the floor once again, plunged into contemplation.
Huo Zhenxiao’s pointers had undoubtedly given him a direction and pointed out a path.
But the exact path he should take was still up to him!
“Qi” was in his body, and if he wanted to override it, he had to rely on his perceptions.
This was not something that could be done overnight, and required a long period of water-grinding work. The anxiety he had felt before had dissipated with Huo Zhenxiao’s guidance, allowing Chen Dong to regain his composure.
The latter part of the five days.
Chen Dong continued to immerse himself in the training of manipulating Qi, and Huo Zhenxiao would also take time to come over every day to train with him.
However, his weapon was changed to a silver dragon spear, and during the sparring sessions, Chen Dong clearly felt that Huo Zhenxiao was more stern and cold, no longer as light-hearted as when he first pointed with a wooden bar.
Chen Dong did not care about this.
The more realistic the battle, the better it was for his understanding of the manipulation of Qi, which in turn was more helpful to him.
What he doesn’t know is that.
Huo Zhenxiao …… can’t tell you the pain!
……
The night is like ink.
The cold wind was bitter and biting, and the goose feather snow was raging in the night sky.
In the room.
Zhang Wuji’s eyes were covered with gauze, but his body was covered with a thick robe, pale and rough hands, fumbling with his waist, slowly finishing his clothes.
Zhang Wudao looked gloomy and wanted to go up to help several times, but held back.
He knew that his father was a strong man.
After losing his sight, although he said he did not care, if he really took care of his father as if he was blind, he would definitely draw his father’s anger.
Just thinking of his father’s decision, Zhang Wudao noisily said, “Dad, have you really decided to forge your martial body again?”
“Of course! This is a merit that will bless all the people!”
Zhang Wuji did not hesitate, a warm smile spread across his face, “It is not enough for the Thief Sect to accept a favour from Chen Dong, if we can forge a Martial Dao Body to bless the Great Snow Dragon Rider Army and reside in the merit of sheltering ten thousand people in the domain, then my Thief Sect will flourish, who will dare to stand in the way?”
“But ……”
Zhang Wu Dao thought of the horror of the last casting of the martial dao body and couldn’t help but feel a little sour, lamenting, “But there are eight generals in the Thief Sect, you are only one of them, and you would not spare your life for the Thief Sect, what about their seven generals?”
“After the disappearance of the Thief Saint Xu Qingfeng, the Thief Sect has no leader, if the remaining generals are still stagnant and do not think about making progress, the Thief Sect will be completely reduced to a group of chickens and dogs.”
Zhang Wuji straightened his back, and his body exuded a determined aura: “For the glory of the Thief Sect, someone has to make sacrifices, and I have this opportunity to fight for the great prosperity of the Thief Sect with this rotten body.
Zhang Wudao lowered his head and stopped discouraging him.
After straightening his clothes and crown, Zhang Wuji turned around and faced where Zhang Wu Dao was, “Have you carved all twelve white bodies that I asked you to carve?”
“It has been carved.”
Zhang Wu Dao nodded and hesitantly said, “But can it really carry the martial heritage?”
“There are celestial wolves outside the domain, and my domain has stretched and prospered for thousands of years, never lacking in faith offerings, so if I’m right in my speculations, it won’t fail this time!”
Zhang Wuji’s tone raised a point, with an untamed and overbearing tone, “If the earth dogs outside his domain can withstand it, what can’t the faith offerings within my domain withstand?”
Zhang Wu Dao’s brows were filled with worry, but he stopped arguing and went forward to help Elder Zhang to the barracks where the martial body was placed, and then went forward to invite Chen Dong and Huo Zhenxiao.
Chen Dong and Huo Zhenxiao were training in the barracks.
When Zhang Wu Dao arrived and explained the purpose of his visit, both of them were shocked.
“Master Zhang’s body has not yet recovered and is not suitable for recreating a martial body!”
After Huo Zhenxiao’s shock, his face sank down and he said dryly.
Chen Dong also nodded in agreement, the shadow of the last time the Martial Dao Body was cast was still fresh in his mind, if something happened again this time, no one could guarantee Elder Zhang’s safety.
Not to mention, the use of the Faceless Body that he had heard from Chen Daojun that he might be able to give it a try was only derived from Chen Daojun’s speculation!
As for other ways to manoeuvre, neither Chen Dong nor Huo Zhenxiao had a clue!
It was too risky to gamble on Elder Zhang’s life directly on a mere speculation!
“Grandpa has already pondered a good countermeasure and is very certain about recreating the Martial Dao body!” Zhang Wudao said.
Boom!
The sound was like thunder and the words were astonishing.
Chen Dong and Huo Zhenxiao’s faces changed greatly at the same time.
“Really, there is really a way to forge a Martial Dao Body?”
Huo Zhenxiao could hardly maintain his composure and grabbed Zhang Wu Dao’s hand with a face full of shock.
He wanted to forge the Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Body out more than anyone else!
This was related to the improvement of the overall battle power of the 300,000 Great Snow Dragon Riding Army, as well as the stability of the Northern Region’s frontier, and even the …… Great Snow Dragon Riding Army’s battle power, which would be an amazing feat!
Even now the extra-territorial “Hundred Clans Order” is in jeopardy, but Huo Zhenxiao is not willing to bet that eventually the Hundred Clans will collapse together, only continuously growing their own strength, in order to strangle the enemy again and again, until destruction, this is the battlefield!
“Elder Zhang has thought of a better solution than the Faceless Body?”
Chen Dong could not help but ask offhandedly as well, a guess he did not hide from anyone.
Compared to Huo Zhenxiao’s desire, he also wished to leave something behind for the Great Snow Dragon Riding Army and Zhenjiang City.
Even if …… it was only the first Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Body, it would be enough!
After all, the martial heritage of each Heavenly Wolf Martial Dao Body is the martial dao that was once refined from the martial dao of the hundred tribes of the network at the height of the Xiongnu’s glory!
For ordinary soldiers of the Great Snow Dragon Riders, this first Martial Dao Body would be enough for them to enlighten and improve their strength.
It was only the speculation of the Faceless Body that neither he nor Huo Zhenxiao dared to try, but to his surprise, Elder Zhang had found another method.
“Let’s go over and take a look first, this is also what my dad speculated based on his years of experience as a stonemason.”
Zhang Wu Dao looked a little gloomy, he was always worried about his father’s well-being.
Along the way, both Chen Dong and Huo Zhenxiao were overflowing with anticipation and excitement.
When the two walked into the barracks with Zhang Wu Dao and saw the inside of the house, their expressions were stunned at the same time.
The smell of stone shavings was still in the air within this spacious barracks.
A whole twelve Martial Dao stone statues stood in a circular shape in the centre of the barracks, and at this moment Zhang Wuji was standing in the middle of the twelve Martial Dao stone statues.
What really silenced the two men was the heads of the stone statues, which were clearly the heads of a beast!
Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog and Pig!
Exactly twelve zodiac signs!
“Coming?”
Zhang Wuji heard the ringing and smiled slightly, “This time, perhaps it will work!”
“Elder Zhang, the twelve zodiac martial bodies, how sure are you?”
Huo Zhenxiao returned to his senses and wrinkled his brows inquiringly, “If it is not a foolproof plan, I do not wish for your old man to take another risk with his injured body.”
His voice was somewhat determined.
However, Chen Dong was looking at the Twelve Zodiac Martial Dao Stone Statues and fell into deep thought.
“Fifty percent.”
Zhang Wuji raised his right hand and opened his five fingers, “There is always a risk to be taken, a big risk is a big risk, the merit that can bless the people, even if the old man dies because of the casting, he will die willingly.”
As if he knew Huo Zhenxiao was going to argue, Zhang Wuji immediately spoke up to explain.
“This martial heritage is really weird and powerful, if it is a mortal stone, according to my speculation, should not be able to cast the martial body, master Huo also do not say that the old master superstitious, the old master this life experience, in the folk some beliefs, sometimes have to believe, twelve zodiac signs are twelve genera, along with the domain people born, a whole life, this kind of faith offerings, should be able to carry the martial heritage! ”
Zhang Wuji’s face became proud, “The Huns can forge their martial dao bodies with the Heavenly Wolf, there is never a shortage of faith in my domain!”
Heavenly Wolf?!
Chen Dong’s eyes fiercely blossomed with a brilliant aura as he spoke straightforwardly, “Senior, the domain believes in the Heavenly Wolf, the Huns forge their martial dao bodies with the Heavenly Wolf’s head, perhaps Elder’s method can be tried!”
