Chapter 74: Thousand Illusion Sword Technique
"In that case, please do me a favor, young lady."

Gu Mingchuan made another request, "Teach me a sword technique that won't reveal our origins."

Yu Huaiyi looked at him, "If I remember correctly, there is only one month left in the Soul Seizing Battle."

What this means is, is it too late for him to learn a new sword technique now?
Gu Mingchuan smiled confidently, "Don't worry, I learn things quickly."

"it is good."

Yu Huaiyi sneered in her heart. She wanted to see how fast he could learn things and how he dared to say such big words.

"It just so happens that I know a sword technique that originated from the Chu family in Zhongzhou, called the Thousand Illusion Sword Technique. Watch carefully, I will only teach you once."

She immediately used her fingers to represent a sword and waved it in the air.

Gu Mingchuan watched and memorized the formula she said.

One teaches and the other learns, time passes very quickly.

This sword technique is extremely complex and complicated. The core lies in the word "illusion". In the entry-level stage, the moves are used to create illusions.

The last few moves are about using sword intent to create illusions.

Yu Huaiyi talked from dawn to dusk, and after a whole night, he finally finished explaining this sword technique at dawn the next day.

With their cultivation level, this doesn't count as staying up late.

For them, working without sleep for a year is nothing.

Sitting in meditation and practicing regularly is considered a rest.

After Yu Huaiyi finished speaking, he ordered them to leave. "This sword technique is extremely powerful. You should practice it well. I'm tired. You can leave now."

She chose such an extremely complicated sword technique and only explained it once, just to see him make a fool of himself.

This sword technique is notoriously difficult to practice. It took her three months to master it, and it was her master who taught her step by step.

She deliberately only explained it once to see how he would practice it.

It won't be long before he comes back to ask her for advice. Then, she can take the opportunity to beat him up.

He actually told others that he was his wife. He was so bold that he even dared to take advantage of her.

If it weren't for the inheritance in his body and he had saved her life, she would have slapped him to death long ago.

However, this kid is becoming more and more outrageous.

He didn't even knock before entering the house.

If you don’t give it a warning, what will happen in the future?
……

Gu Mingchuan left the room and looked at the martial arts column on the panel. There was an additional [Thousand Illusion Sword Technique (Not yet mastered (0/10000+)]

He couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Yu Huaiyi in his heart. He explained it in a simple and easy-to-understand way. After only listening to it once, he was on the panel.

However, the entry level of this Thousand Illusions Sword Technique requires 10,000 points. Doesn't that mean that this is at least a sword technique at the Dharma Image Realm?
He added 10,000 ambition points to it.

Suddenly, countless sword moves flashed through his mind, and the 108 moves taught by Yu Huaiyi evolved into thousands of moves.

It can be said to be extremely complicated.

If he were to practice on his own, it would probably take him one or two years to get started.

too difficult.

[Thousand Illusion Sword Technique (Entry Level 0/100000+)]

Seeing that he could add more points, Gu Mingchuan added another 100,000 points.

His mind exploded, and those extremely complicated sword moves evolved into several sword intents.

[Thousand Illusion Sword Technique (Proficient 0/1000000)]

He said with emotion, "It's just the proficiency level, but it's condensed into sword intent. It's really worthy of being a Dharma-image-level swordsmanship."

At this point, the "+" at the end disappears, which means that you can no longer add points.

But it's enough.

At this point, I believe no one will doubt that he is Gu Mingchuan.

Gu Mingchuan is an expert with a knife, and Chu Po is a swordsman. Once he uses this sword technique, others will only think that he is from the Chu family in Zhongzhou.

Jiangzhou and Zhongzhou are so far apart, and with the communication conditions of that era, by the time others confirmed that there was a problem with his identity, he would have long stopped using this vest.

……

Two days later, Shang Tiancheng took the initiative to visit.

Of course, this villa originally belonged to a business, so it is not quite accurate to say "visiting"; it should be said "going home".

As soon as he came up, he asked directly, "Brother Chu, what do you think?"

Gu Mingchuan liked such direct people, and said readily, "I'll take it." "Okay!"

Shang Tiancheng was very happy and said immediately, "Come on, Brother Chu, follow me to see my father."

Such a major matter naturally requires his father to make the final decision personally.

Of course there is no problem with Gu Mingchuan.

The two of them arrived at the Shang family and met the current head of the Shang family, Shang Zude. This was a handsome and elegant middle-aged man, and both father and son were very good-looking.

No wonder his sister was able to marry the head of the Xue family.

In addition to Shang Zude, there were several other people present.

When they were almost done talking, a young man questioned, "Master, it's not appropriate to decide on this person to fight. We don't know what he is capable of. What if he is a fool? Wouldn't it make us, the merchants, look bad in public? Let me test his strength."

As he spoke, he slapped out from the air, and an unparalleled powerful energy blasted towards Gu Mingchuan.

It turned out that he had reached the ninth level of Gangyuan.

Shang Zude, who was sitting on the main seat, shouted, "Tianci, you must not be rude!"

But it's too late.

The strong energy had already reached Gu Mingchuan.

He did not dodge or evade, but smiled slightly. A flame appeared out of nowhere and engulfed the energy. A fire dragon appeared in the air and pounced towards Shang Tianci.

Shang Tianci felt the violent power, his eyes narrowed, and he pushed forward with both hands. The huge energy in his body turned into a protective shield, blocking in front of him.

As soon as the fire dragon arrived, his inner energy was like paper and was pierced through instantly.

Just as it was about to pounce on him, the fire dragon suddenly stopped, and after half a breath, it dissipated on its own.

Beads of sweat appeared on Shang Tianci's forehead. He realized that the other party was showing mercy, otherwise, he would be seriously injured if not killed by this blow.

Shang Zude stood up and said, "Thank you, nephew, for showing mercy. I hope you won't mind my rash behavior."

"Senior Shang, you are too kind."

Gu Mingchuan's favorable impression of the owner of this business increased greatly.

He originally thought that Shang Zude would take action to block his attack, but unexpectedly, he was able to hold back and not take action.

I don't know whether he was sure that he didn't dare to kill him, or he was just thinking about teaching this young man a lesson.

In Gu Mingchuan's opinion, Shang Tianci is quite capable and much stronger than Li Rulong and his friends, but he is a bit rash in doing things.

……

After Shang Tiancheng sent Gu Mingchuan away, only Shang Zude and Shang Tianci were left in the living room.

Shang Tianci said, "Father, I still feel that this person's origins are unknown. Who knows what his intentions are? Isn't it a bit hasty to let him fight on behalf of our Shang family?"

Shang Zude said, "Your second uncle went to the Demon Suppression Division to check, and there has been no wanted criminal matching this person in recent years. Moreover, I just checked and there is no trace of disguise on his face."

"As for his origins, there is no need to delve into them. As long as he is not a serious criminal of the court, it's fine. We are just making a deal with him. If he loses, we won't lose anything. If we can win, it will be a pleasant surprise, and there is no need to ask your aunt for help. We, the merchants, already owe the Xue family enough."

Shang Tianci said with some guilt, "It's all because of my uselessness."

That divine blood stone was exactly what he needed. He only hated that he was not strong enough to win the soul-stealing battle by himself, and that he had to make his father worry.

Shang Zude shook his head and said, "This is not your fault. The Soul Seizing Battle takes place every ten years, and your age is right in the middle. If you can survive another two or three years, you will have a good chance of winning."

Shang Tianci just turned twenty-one this year. He broke through to the ninth level of Gangyuan last year, but his skills were a little off.

However, the next Soul-stealing Battle will be in ten years, which will be too late.

All I can say is that his age is too awkward. If he had been born a few years earlier or later, he wouldn't be like this now.

Shang Zude had no choice but to shamelessly ask the Xue family for help. In that case, the Shang family would only go one step further and become a vassal of the Xue family.

Now, the appearance of Gu Mingchuan made him see an opportunity, so he naturally wanted to give it a try.

If it succeeds, it will be a pleasant surprise.

The divine blood stone is an excellent spiritual object for opening the "divine treasure of the heart".

It's definitely worth exchanging it for the Wanling Fruit Core.

Of course, the best spiritual object to open the "divine treasure of the heart" is still in the Gu family. They have a living "God"!
Unfortunately, those who are not of the Gu family bloodline are simply unable to withstand the true "divine blood".

Shang Tianci asked, "Father, do you think this man can really win the battle to seize the soul?"

Shang Zude said, "It's hard to say. In recent years, Jiangzhou has produced many talented people. Jiang Yihong, Xue Yuanqi, Zhao Feiyang, Xiao Biyun and others are all talented people with great potential. Although Chu Po has deep Gang Yuan, I don't know how good his swordsmanship is. It is still unknown whether he can compete with these geniuses."
