Chapter 884 Cultivated One Move for Three Years

Fang Qiu was shocked when he heard that the elder was the sword guard. His eyes were full of respect. He held fist salute to the elder and asked sincerely, “Senior, since you are the sword guard, do you know how to get the divine sword?”

The elder shook his head and said to Fang Qiu with a faint smile, “I don’t know. If there is a way, the legendary divine sword would have been obtained by someone a long time ago. How could it not appear in the world for thousands of years? And do you really believe that there is a divine sword in the Sword-hidden Mountain?”

Fang Qiu looked at the elder with a serious look. The elder had already admitted he was the sword guard, which might mean that there was indeed a divine sword in the Sword-hidden Mountain.

Since the elder spoke frankly, why did he ask such a question?

Looking at Fang Qiu, the elder was still indifferent, quietly waiting for Fang Qiu’s answer.

“Believe it or not, I have to try,” Fang Qiu said after thinking for a while.

The elder admitted his identity and asked Fang Qiu if he really believed in the existence of the divine sword. He seemed to understand that it seemed to conflict, but in fact, there was no conflict at all.

The elder was indeed the sword guard. He definitely believed that the divine sword’s existence. However, he had guarded it for a lifetime, but he had never seen it. So he felt that the so-called trust of others was not worth believing.

Hearing Fang Qiu’s answer, the elder nodded gently and said, “Okay. If you clean the floor for me and then wipe the stele. I’ll tell you some secrets.”

“Thank you, Senior.” Fang Qiu was overjoyed. After holding a fist salute, he immediately took the broom and began to sweep the floor.

It made the elder surprised.

“Do you believe my words?” Looking at Fang Qiu, the elder raised his eyebrows slightly. He seemed to be very surprised by Fang Qiu’s choice.

Fang Qiu raised the broom, glanced at the vast open area around him, and said with a smile, “This has nothing to do with whether I believe it or not. I saw an elder cleaning here. I have to help him.”

The elder nodded and smiled. He praised. “Good! What a young man. It’s rare to see such a good young man like you recently.”

Fang Qiu smiled and began to work.

However, Fang Qiu was sweeping normally, instead of using internal Qi. He was especially serious and meticulously cleaned every corner.

Time passed quietly. After sweeping, Fang Qiu put down the broom, found the elder’s ladder, and began to wipe the stele.

When Fang Qiu finished it, the mountain wind blew the fallen leaves and dust all over the square. Fang Qiu didn’t say anything and continued to pick up the broom to sweep.

The sun was about to set when everything was done.

Fang Qiu cleaned the rag and returned it to the elder with the bucket and broom.

While returning the things, Fang Qiu said to the elder, “Senior, it’s late now. You can go back first. I’ll guard this place for you. I promise there will be no problem.”

The elder nodded and said with a smile, “Good job, young man. Since you work so hard, I will give you a chance.”

“Hmm?” Fang Qiu froze.

The elder put down the broom and bucket that he just took from Fang Qiu, then walked to the open area and stopped. He turned to Fang Qiu and said solemnly, “I have one move. If you take it, I’ll tell you the method.”

Hearing this, Fang Qiu shivered and stared at the elder in shock.

“Could it be that this senior’s realm was higher than mine?

“He lied to me just now.”

As Fang Qiu thought to himself, he immediately walked to the elder without any hesitation.

He would never let go of such an opportunity!

Seeing that Fang Qiu was ready, the elder smiled and slowly raised his right arm to his left ear.

It could be seen that there was a green willow leaf in his hand.

“Young man, are you ready?” the elder asked in a deep voice.

“Yes!” Fang Qiu took a deep breath and nodded.

Although he didn’t feel any aura of energy from the elder, there was an inexplicable pressure in his heart, which made him have to take it seriously!

“It’s coming.” The elder’s eyes glittered, and he waved his right hand.

The green willow leaf that he had pinched on his finger had actually left his hand in an instant. It shot over with ear-piercing sound and lightning speed.

It was extremely fast.

If it were an ordinary person, he would definitely not be able to take it! But Fang Qiu was not an ordinary one.

As soon as the willow leaf shot toward him, Fang Qiu stretched out his hands, slapped them in front of him, and caught it.

“What?” Seeing this, the elder was surprised at first, then he nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, “You are really amazing!”

However, Fang Qiu was shocked, extremely shocked.

Just now, he did not feel any aura of internal Qi and energy from the elder, which meant that the elder did not use internal Qi and the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

But how could this willow leaf be so fast without the help of internal Qi and the Qi of Heaven and Earth?

The most shocking thing was that Fang Qiu also found something that couldn’t be ignored at all.

When the willow leaf got out of the elder’s hand, some of the surrounding Qi of Heaven and Earth was actually mobilized. That Qi of Heaven and Earth had nothing to do with his body and seemed to be mobilized by the willow leaf.

It was because of this that the speed of the willow leaf was so fast that even an expert in the Guru Realm like him almost failed to take it.

“How, how is this possible?

“What the hell is going on?

“Without internal Qi, he can mobilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth. If this move is added with his own internal Qi, wouldn’t it be a reduced version of the Great Hand of Destruction?

“Could it be that this senior can also use the Great Hand of Destruction???”

In just a moment, Fang Qiu thought a lot. He looked at the elder with a strong respect and uncontrollable shock!

On the other side, the elder nodded with a satisfied smile and said, “I have been here since I retired from my 50s. I fought a total of eight times in the past 26 years. There are only three people who can take this move. You are one of them.”

“In terms of age, you are younger than them.”

“In addition, my willow leaves were not as fast as this one today!”

Hearing this, Fang Qiu immediately asked in shock, “Senior, who are you?”

“Haven’t I told you?” the elder smiled and explained to Fang Qiu, “I am the forest guard here, and also the sword guard of this generation. In fact, don’t be surprised. This move was passed down from my family. After all, the power of ancient martial arts is not comparable to that of today’s martial arts. Unfortunately, my family only has this move now, and it has been weakened a lot by time.”

Fang Qiu was even more shocked. “Senior, this move is enough to make you famous!”

He felt that there were definitely few people who could take this move in today’s Wulin!

The elder chuckled. He shook his head and said, “Famous? It’s our family’s mission, not a tool to become famous. And this move can only be used once every three years.”

“What?” Fang Qiu’s expression changed, and he was inexplicably shocked.

“I’m just an ordinary person,” the elder turned to look around and said, “I don’t know what internal Qi you are talking about. This move doesn’t need internal Qi. It requires the unity of energy, Qi, and spirit, so I need to cultivate it for three years!”

“Can people cultivate in this way?” Fang Qiu thought.

As Fang Qiu was shocked, he hurriedly asked, “Are the ancient martial arts all the unity of energy, Qi, and spirit?”

At this moment, he thought of the Great Hand of Destruction.

Practicing and executing the Great Hand of Destruction required the unity of energy, Qi, and spirit. Moreover, it could mobilize the Qi of Heaven and Earth. Of course, the Qi of Heaven and Earth mobilized by the Great Hand of Destruction was much more than that of the elder’s move.

Besides, it was the same with the Divine Consciousness which needed not only internal Qi but also spiritual and mental powers!

The energy represented spiritual power, the Qi represented internal Qi, and the spirit was the divine consciousness and mental power!

Fang Qiu was practicing these three kinds of powers, so he knew how powerful each of them was!

To use the Great Hand of Destruction or the Divine Consciousness, one needed to combine one’s energy, Qi, and spirit when using and learning it. Was it to say that both the Great Hand of Destruction and the Divine Consciousness were inherited ancient martial arts?

No wonder the elder said that the move had been weakened a lot and was incomplete. Although it was similar to the Great Hand of Destruction, it was indeed less than the Great Hand of Destruction in mobilizing the Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Hearing Fang Qiu’s question, the elder shook his head, then raised his eyebrows and said, “I don’t know. I only know that I have cultivated it for a lifetime, and this was all that’s left. Now it seems that it is just a remnant move. I have been cultivating this move for three years to be perfectly united in energy, Qi, and spirit.”

Hearing this, Fang Qiu admired him very much.

He only learned one move in his life. It could only be used once after three years of cultivation.

How could an ordinary person be able to have such perseverance?

“Please guide me, Senior.” Fang Qiu immediately held a fist salute and bowed. He asked, “How should I cultivate?”

“Actually, there’s nothing special,” the elder turned to look at the area and said, “I integrate it into my move every day, so that my energy, Qi, and spirit can remain united for a long time and I can constantly temper myself. As time goes by, when I make the move, I will naturally become united with the environment here, as if heaven and earth are my help.”

Then the elder looked back at Fang Qiu and asked, “Although what I said is very mysterious, you should be able to understand it, right?”

“Yes.” Fang Qiu nodded.

“Heaven and earth are my help?

“Isn’t that the gathering of the Qi of Heaven and Earth?

“What he said meant that the elder did not fully understand the principle of gathering the Qi of Heaven and Earth. It seemed that he was too familiar with the environment and space here as well as the Qi of Heaven and Earth that had been wandering here all year round. Therefore, he could use it skillfully when he performed this move.

“If this move was used elsewhere, the power might be much weaker.”

“I see. Thank you, Senior.” Fang Qiu held a fist salute to the elder.

After hearing the elder’s words, he understood.

He couldn’t learn the elder’s move.

Not only him, but no one in the world could learn it!
