Fairy, return my flying sword to me

Chapter 72 Taoist Duobao
"He's going to fight a genius swordsman. I'm not a genius, so this is a victory."

"If necessary, I can stop practicing swordsmanship. This is my second victory."

"what?"

"Don't interrupt, just keep listening. He crushes everyone he fights in the forest with his swordsmanship, but I'm different. I don't use swordsmanship, so he can't affect my mentality. His advantage disappears in front of me. This is the third victory."

"He is strong in forest swordsmanship, while I am strong in magic weapons. This is the fourth victory."

"He didn't use any magic against the enemy, which means he hasn't practiced any magic. I have a high level of cultivation and have mastered all kinds of magic. This is the fifth victory."

"???"

"He's defeated so many people that he's become arrogant. Arrogant soldiers are doomed to fail! This is his sixth victory."

"No...you..."

"One last thing, remember this. I also have a golden spiritual root. It's a top-grade golden spiritual root that I purified bit by bit using the Golden Spirit Pill. His golden spiritual root, on the other hand, is just an ordinary mid-grade spiritual root that was naturally nurtured. My sword is not at a disadvantage either! This is the seventh victory!"

With that, the seven-victory challenger stepped onto the stage with a smile.

As expected, facing the Lingying Fenguang Sword that Lin Jian used with the Flying Sword Technique, he didn't even look at it, but just controlled his... three flying swords? and attacked Lin Jian together.

The faster Lingying's Spectroscopic Sword fell on the opponent's body with a "ding ding ding" sound, but was blocked by a layer of faint golden light.

Instead, facing the three flying swords attacking from the opponent, Lin Jian had to temporarily avoid the attack.

The three key flying swords coordinated with each other when they were shot, almost blocking all retreat routes in the forest.

Fortunately, the existence of combat marches allowed Lin Jian to move at an astonishing speed during battle, which allowed him to escape narrowly from the encirclement of three flying swords.

But it was obvious that the other party would not give Lin Jian any chance to breathe, and he chased him quickly with sword gestures.

"Shhhhhh!"

"Shhhhhh!"

No matter how fast a person is, he can never compare to the speed of a flying sword. Several times, the flying sword almost brushed past Lin Jian's body.

This was the most thrilling and embarrassing performance since the battle in the forest.

Looking at the figure in the forest rushing around on the field, the challengers below the stage opened their eyes wide as if they had discovered a new world.

"Yes, that's right! No matter how proficient the Lingying Splitting Light Sword is, it's only a basic sword technique, with limited power. Of course, our mortal bodies can't resist it, but as long as we have a defensive magic weapon, no matter how exquisite the sword technique in the forest is, it will be difficult to penetrate!"

"I was saying, what's the point of practicing basic swordsmanship? If you practice it better, reach a higher level, or save up money to buy a defensive weapon, you'll be done with it. It's just a side path! It's just a side path!"

Even Li Yuwan was unable to distract herself to refute at this moment. She just stared at her senior brother nervously, fearing that he would really be defeated by this krypton gold technique.

However, after a few breaths, the originally precarious situation seemed to slowly calm down.

Although the three flying swords were still chasing fiercely, the danger they caused was far less than the first few breaths.

There were even two times when the two swords almost collided, and it was almost a misunderstanding.

Lin Jian discovered the opponent's weakness.

Even with the ability of the Foundation Establishment Stage, it was still not enough to control the three swords. The opponent had only practiced the coordinated attacks in the first few breaths and became quite proficient.

But once he managed to avoid his assassination attempt, the burden of the three swords would be beyond the ability of a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator to handle.

Faced with his own changeable and complex follow-up responses, countless mistakes, big and small, occurred as he focused on controlling the coordination of the three swords.

If this goes on, the opponent will be worn down to death.

As he was thinking this, Lin Jian suddenly felt some resistance under his feet.

In the next moment, the resistance suddenly became so great that it was difficult to lift a foot in the forest, and it was difficult to dodge the attack of the three flying swords.

"Swish, swish, swish!" The three swords pierced through each other, forming a triangle and placing Lin Jian in the middle.

The seven-victory challenger held a jade bead in his hand. He looked at Lin Jian with a smile on his plump, round face and said, "Junior Brother Lin, when you go out, you have to consider your background and financial resources. You think I have a gold spiritual root, but in fact, when necessary, I don't even need spiritual roots."

"Junior Brother Lin, you still don't know my name, right? Let me introduce myself. My name is Shi Xiaohu. You can also call me Taoist Duobao. I can handle it."

"This Taoist transcends the Three Systems and is not part of the Five Elements. This is my own unique weapon control technique. What do you think?"

Lin Jian grinned, "Not really."

"Oh?" Taoist Duobao narrowed his eyes and slightly retracted the sword in his hand.

At the same time, the three flying swords on Lin Jian's neck also closed the distance, approaching Lin Jian's body from all directions. "Don't you admit defeat?"

Lin Jian smiled and said, "Actually, I don't have to hide."

As the words fell, the forest shook slightly.

The three flying swords were instantly blown away and it was difficult to regain control in a short time.

The flying sword technique using the Lingying Fenguang Sword is indeed difficult to break through the defense of some magical weapons that specialize in defense, but this little fat man seems to have forgotten that the attacks launched by the three flying swords he controlled while using the flying sword technique and mobilizing the control magic weapon are also just normal attacks.

How could a normal attack possibly break through the defense of the Golden Spirit Body?

Lin Jian just took the opportunity to see if his opponent had more means to accumulate combat experience.

Unfortunately, the opponent didn't.

Then it's my turn to fight back.

When shaking off the flying sword, Lin Jian stepped on the seven stars and made a golden sword seal with his hand.

In just a moment, before even the miniature sword formation patterns under his feet could react, Lin Jian had already shot out the Thousand Blades Finger, which condensed dozens of golden swords.

After a "puff" sound, a wisp of green smoke rose from the little fat man's chest.

Taoist Duobao was stunned and took out a mirror reflecting the sunlight from his arms with heartache.

"My second-grade heart-protecting mirror!"

The little green bean eyes stared at the forest intently, but Duobao Taoist still insisted, "Today's defeat is not my fault! If I were a third-grade heart-protecting mirror, you would definitely lose!"

He turned around and jumped off the stage while yelling, "My second-grade heart-protecting mirror!"

Although he lost, he won.

Duobao Taoist's challenge allowed more challengers to see opportunities.

Yes, out of dignity as sword cultivators, their confidence was dampened when they found that they were crushed by Lin Jian in swordsmanship.

But the battle is by no means a simple sword duel. As long as they bypass the sword aspect, can't they play to their strengths?
However, only after bypassing the sword technique did we see the real forest.

When the fight was getting intense, a sword shot through the forest like a rainbow, passing through the shadows of more than a dozen disciples.

The challenger who was cut by the sword light retreated in panic and dared not raise his sword into the forest again.

"Next one!" Lin Jian's eyes gleamed, and he raised his sword and looked around.

In the silence, a figure in white with a sword behind him landed on the stage like an immortal.

The sudden appearance of the figure startled the presiding elder who was dozing off on the sidelines, and he stood up with a start.

"Qingfeng Sword Master! This is a game between disciples, why are you joining in the fun?!"
