Mortal Bones

With a "bang" sound, the Rusty Lion Sword was hit by the two sword energies, causing the sword body to tremble.

Xu Taiping was stunned for a moment, and then said with a sudden look on his face:

"Yes, I can use a sword too."

Immediately, he used his soul to control the sword and urged the rusty lion to slash at the sword energy.

Just like before, although the sword energy was chopped open, it would immediately split into two and attack Xu Taiping again.

Maybe it's because of the sudden appearance of the Rusty Lion.

Xu Taiping's past of using swords to carve characters over the years suddenly came to his mind, and then he instinctively imagined the sword energy in front of him as strokes of handwriting.

For a moment, Xu Taiping suddenly had a bold idea in his mind.

Immediately, he used the rusty lion as his "pen" and the sword energy flying down from the mountain as his "ink". He began to follow the direction of the sword energy flying down, and started writing with his sword in the air.

What surprised Xu Taiping was that these sword energies were actually under his control and turned into two simple words suspended in the air.

One word is left and one word is right.

This also echoes the direction of the two sword energy just now.

One attacked Xu Taiping from the left, and the other attacked from the right.

…

Inside the Baiju Inn.

"How is this done?"

Seeing Xu Taiping sealing the sword energy with words, Huang Que showed an incredible expression on his face, and looked at the palace master Liu Chuxuan opposite in surprise.

"This is an extremely superb swordsmanship."

Liu Chuxuan frowned, then traced the two words on the bronze mirror with his fingers, and said with a frown:

"The essence of his swordsmanship is hidden in the strokes of these two characters. He used these strokes as a prison to trap the sword energy coming down from the mountain."

"Bang!" Before Liu Chuxuan could finish copying the left character, the half-written character exploded on its own.

Liu Chuxuan frowned.

"This swordsmanship seems simple, but in fact it is extremely mysterious and complex. It pays attention to the starting and finishing of each stroke, and even the thickness of the stroke. If there is a slight mistake, the handwriting will not be formed."

When he said this, the look he looked at Xu Taiping in the bronze mirror became more and more serious.

"It's not easy to teach him swordsmanship, and it's not easy for him to learn it successfully."

Liu Chuxuan continued.

But immediately, his brows frowned again.

Because he discovered that after Xu Taiping sealed these sword energy, he did not seize the opportunity to continue walking up. Instead, when he reached the roadside, he cut down another plum tree with a "swish" sound.

"My friend, do you have a bad mind? Why do you always have trouble with the plum trees in Yuhu Mountain?"

Liu Chuxuan raised his head and looked at Huang Que with a depressed expression.

The oriole was speechless.

He now regrets very much that he boasted to the palace master about how close he was to Xu Taiping.

"However, this method can still be used for now. After climbing up the ninety-nine steps, the waterfall of sword energy flowing down the mountain will no longer be as gentle as it is now. By then, he can only go up the mountain and chop down trees. Choose one of the two.”

Liu Chuxuan folded his hands on his chest and leaned back on the chair.

…

Chapter 99: Stairs.

"Rumble..."

Amidst the sound like a waterfall, the sword energy rushed down the mountain road from the top of the mountain like white clouds.

"The sword energy is like a waterfall."

Xu Taiping looked up at this scene, and this word appeared in his mind.

"Zheng!"

At this time, a sword cultivator disciple in front of him suddenly used his flying sword and split open the waterfall of sword energy rushing down.

But in just an instant, the waterfall formed by the sword energy swallowed him whole. Only a faint sword light could be seen still shining in the waterfall, supporting him upward with difficulty.

"boom!"

At this time, the sword energy like a waterfall had already rushed to Xu Taiping.

"Zheng!"

The Rusty Lion Sword flew out immediately, and in just a moment, a wall composed of densely packed words appeared in front of Xu Taiping, blocking the waterfall-like sword energy.

But soon, Xu Taiping felt a sword intention that was somewhat similar to Canghai Sword Intention, emerging from the waterfall-like sword energy.

Immediately afterwards, the sword energy waterfall that was originally relatively stable suddenly turned into a turbulent wave, surrounding Xu Taiping.

"Zheng!..."

Amidst the sound of swords, Rusty Lion used the sword energy as ink beside Xu Taiping and once again wrote a series of dense words, eventually forming four walls to protect Xu Taiping.

With these four walls composed of words, the sword energy that was originally full of violent energy suddenly became stable, and once again flowed past Xu Taiping like a stream of smoke.

"Is it because you regard me as a similar person?"

Looking at the sword energy flowing slowly downward from his side like smoke, Xu Taiping secretly guessed in his heart.

The sword energy writing around him was actually written according to the sword energy flowing down from the mountain.

At this moment, he is said to be integrated with the sword energy on the mountain, and there is no problem.

"boom!"

However, when Xu Taiping tried to walk towards the roadside, the originally peaceful sword energy suddenly became ferocious in appearance, and once again they all rushed towards Xu Taiping.

The wall of sword energy words that had been condensed collapsed in an instant.

"call……"

Xu Taiping finally managed to block these violent sword energy with a new wall of sword energy words.

"So I have to obey the sword energy of these swords on the mountain before I can continue to move forward. Any action that goes against the sword energy on the mountain will be considered an enemy that needs to be eliminated."

Seeing the sword energy flowing steadily around him again, Xu Taiping suddenly understood something.

"But if I were to cut down the plum tree, I wouldn't be able to follow the trend."

He frowned and looked at the plum tree swaying in the wind by the road.

…

"Look, what I said is right, right? If you want to cut down the tree, you can't continue to seal the sword energy on the mountain in this way. You can only fight tit for tat with the sword energy on the mountain."

Inside the Baiju Inn, the owner of the palace, Liu Chuxuan, crossed his arms across his chest and leaned back on the chair with a proud look on his face.

However, Huang Que did not echo Liu Chuxuan's words this time. Instead, he looked at Liu Chuxuan with a bit of surprise in his eyes and said:

"Master, his swordsmanship can turn the opponent's sword energy, sword intention, and sword force into visible words. Doesn't that mean that the words around him at this moment are equivalent to turning the words on the path of the plum garden? A sword was copied?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Chuxuan, who was still leaning on his chair with a smile, suddenly sat up straight.
