Chapter 110: Illusory Realm

  Now this "Clear Wind Swordsmanship", Ning Chong has mastered it, and it has become as smooth as flowing clouds and running water, with moves that are freely unleashed and retracted; the sword flashes out swiftly without a shadow or a gleam of light; the sword moves like a gentle breeze, only seeing the wind but not the sword.

  Such a realm is actually the perfect realm of "Clear Wind Swordsmanship". For many martial artists, this realm is already an unattainable goal. However, for Ning Chong, any martial skill, especially one as renowned as "Clear Wind Swordsmanship", not being cultivated to the highest " Realm of Intent" would mean failure!

  Ning Chong's innate talent was the worst among his peers, and under the same conditions, his cultivation speed was significantly slower than others. His current greatest advantage was having that strange feeling, which gave him an extremely obvious edge in mastering techniques and martial skills.

  Nature, if you can't make the most of your advantages on this, what else can Ning Chong use to compete with those talented martial artists?

  So, despite the two months' time, Ning Chong had cultivated "Clear Wind Sword Technique" to the "Perfect Realm", but he was not only dissatisfied, but also shook his head.

  This "Clear Wind Swordsmanship" is indeed worthy of being the sword technique of the Sword Saint Lu Jiusi, a thin book of secret skills, with a short and simple incantation that contains many profound mysteries and subtleties. Any unremarkable place, if one can decipher and comprehend these profundities, will be able to grasp numerous ultimate principles of martial arts.

  Undoubtedly, the difficulty of cultivating "Clear Wind Swordsmanship" for Ning Chong has reached an unprecedented level. If it were an ordinary martial skill, Ning Chong would have cultivated it to the highest "realm of intent" in at most ten days or so, but after more than two months of cultivating "Clear Wind Swordsmanship", he still hasn't reached it.

  Ning Chong didn't feel discouraged at all, because judging from the difficulty of cultivation alone, with his current mastery of the "Clear Wind Sword Technique", he had already begun to feel the terrifying power of the "Clear Wind Sword Technique"! Ning Chong had an extremely strong premonition in his heart - once he cultivated the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" to its highest realm, his strength would undergo a qualitative leap!

  So this "Clear Wind Sword Technique" is completely worth spending so much time and effort to practice!

  After cultivating the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" for so long, Ning Chong felt that the feeling in his heart was becoming clearer and clearer, almost as if it was about to emerge. This time, Ning Chong had come to Heartbreak Cliff with the intention of staying there for a while longer, making a concerted effort to impact the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" to its highest realm, and he even brought dry rations for this purpose.

  Under sufficient perseverance and determination, Ning Chong completely ignored the wind, snow and cold, staying beside Xin Suai Cliff, waiting for several days.

  Despite his hard work and diligence, progress was still slow, Ning Chong couldn't help but furrow his brow, feeling that his "Clear Wind Sword Technique" was still lacking something.

  The crux of the problem lies precisely in what is missing! What's missing is exactly where "Clear Wind Swordsmanship" differs from other martial arts, and it's the true essence of "Clear Wind Swordsmanship"! Once grasped, the highest realm will be easily attained!

  For this, Ning Chong was not tired of it, and he opened the "Clear Wind Swordsmanship" again and again, carefully reading the incantation and carefully sensing the aura of the secret book. At the same time as further familiarizing himself with the "Clear Wind Swordsmanship", he also deepened the clarity of that strange feeling. For this, even when he was sleeping, his arms were still holding the "Clear Wind Swordsmanship".

  Ning Chong lived on the Heartbreak Cliff, and more than ten days passed in a flash. However, his gains from practicing the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" were still not great. Nevertheless, Ning Chong's mind was mature and patient enough to clearly understand that with the help of that strange feeling, mastering the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" to its highest realm was only a matter of time. He continued to endure the frustration and kept studying.

  Day has its thoughts, night has its dreams. On this day, Ning Chong suddenly dreamed of a figure demonstrating the "Clear Wind Swordsmanship".

  The figure's demonstration of the "Clear Wind Sword Technique" was clearly superior to Ning Chong's in both technique and other aspects. Ning Chong was overjoyed and immediately watched intently as the figure demonstrated the "Clear Wind Sword Technique".

  Time and time again, he didn't know how many times he had watched from the side, nor did he know when, but Ning Chong suddenly discovered that the figure dancing with swords had stopped in front of him, smiling at him.

  After that, Ning Chong suddenly opened his eyes and woke up, only to feel that the feeling in his heart was like a tidal wave, bursting out. The curved paths and multiple choices that had been bothering him for days finally converged into a clear main line!

  Ning Chong couldn't let go of this opportunity, and immediately followed the main thread guided by that strange feeling, holding "Qingfeng Sword Technique" in his hand, continuing to carefully feel it while closing his eyes to comprehend.

  More and more things vaguely grasped in his mind, he didn't know when, Ning Chong suddenly felt a little dizzy, as if he had already entered a dream.

  In the dream, there was a figure in a green robe. Ning Chong looked at the figure in surprise, feeling that the strange feeling had finally led him to this person.

  The green-robed figure gave Ning Chong an extremely strange feeling. The face and body of the green-robed figure were extremely vague, as if they were made up of dead objects, but only a pair of eyes were abnormally agile, with a faint glint. At a glance, he felt as if his eyes had been stabbed by a sharp sword in an instant, and his heart involuntarily turned cold!

  If Ning Chong hadn't been extremely clear-headed, he would have thought all of this was just an illusion and would have immediately chosen to escape, because the figure was truly too terrifying, with just a pair of eyes, Ning Chong felt that at any moment he could be cut into pieces by the gaze of those eyes.

  The figure in the green robe sized up Ning Chong for a moment, seemingly nodding slightly. Without making a sound, he suddenly had a long sword in his hand. The figure held it with his left hand behind his back and his right hand holding the sword, lightly and casually raising it to strike at Ning Chong.

  The figure in the green robe merely executed a basic stabbing technique, looking soft and weak, casual and careless, like a child playing. However, what suddenly shocked Ning Chong was that under this light and casual sword strike, the entire heavenly power of the space was instantly stirred up, unleashing a terrifying storm that covered the sky and earth!

  The power under this sword is terrifying to the point where it's hard to imagine!

  The fierce wind howled, wildly sweeping away the billions of air masses, and the billions of air masses formed into sharp blades that cut through the air with a loud whoosh. Ning Chong had nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape, and all he could feel was the violent wind blades surrounding him. Before they even reached his body, the gentle breeze that had been compressed and brought forth by the wind swept across his face, causing pain as if it were being cut by a knife. Fresh blood flowed from his face, revealing scars that only sharp blades could inflict.
