After the first round of confrontation with the man in black, Qingdeng had already determined that his body could not keep up with the speed of the man in black, and this shortcoming could not be filled by temporary efforts.

Since the body has no time to react, it can only rely on predicting its movements to dodge!

Therefore, Qingdeng's strategy is quite clear - rely on "anticipation" to avoid the attack of the men in black and wait for an opportunity to counterattack the opponent's army!

For this purpose, we must make good use of the opportunity in the man in black.

The man in black...or perhaps his attack method has a special characteristic. It may seem like nothing to others, but to Qingdeng, it is a breakthrough that can bring him a victory.

Although the man in black used different methods and different sword paths to "kill" him from beginning to end, his speed and power remained unchanged.

After being beaten so many times, Qingdeng's brain and muscles had become accustomed to the speed and attacking style of the man in black.

This guy's offensive looks very messy at first glance. In fact, every attack he makes has a trace and is not just a random attack.

After a few rounds of simple observation, Qingdeng discovered that although the weapon wielded by the man in black was just a branch, there was no doubt that the way he wielded the branch was all serious swordsmanship.

As long as it's swordsmanship, it's easy.

In Qingdeng's talent list, the talent that was upgraded to "sword skill 106 times that of ordinary people" through talent fusion: "Saint of Swords", has been silently shining after fighting the man in black!

Qingdeng learned and digested the swordsmanship and sword-drawing style of the man in black at a very fast speed!

Relying on the light-speed mastery of the swordsmanship of the man in black, Qingdeng finally succeeded in predicting and dodging the opponent's branches for the first time!

He was excited, but Qingdeng was not just happy.

While he was overjoyed in his heart, he had already swung out the Dingguishen that was placed across his waist! It was slashing towards the body of the man in black!

Angle, timing, all impeccable counterattacks.

However... the scene that happened next caused the excitement that just appeared on Qingdeng's face to freeze.

Bang!

"cough!"

Qingdeng felt a huge impact on his chest. This time he really felt like he had been hit by an express train.

Just at the critical moment when Ding Guishen's blade was about to hit the body of the man in black, a black shadow struck Qingdeng's chest - the man in black responded with a kick that was incredibly fast, hitting Qingdeng in the middle.

Qingdeng was kicked directly out of his chest.

Fortunately, the man in black saved a hand.

Even a person who doesn't know anything about martial arts can see that the man in black didn't use all his strength in the kick just now.

But even so, Qingden still felt very uncomfortable. If he hadn't raised his hand to touch his chest and confirmed that the bones were intact, otherwise he would have really suspected that his sternum was broken by a kick.

Although he was defeated again, overall, Qingdeng's progress was huge - from being unable to survive under the branch of the man in black for 5 seconds to being able to survive for 7 seconds.

At this time, a hoarse old male voice came:

"The dodge and counterattack just now... were very good."

Qingdeng, who still felt severe pain in his chest, struggled to get up.

I saw that the man in black stopped picking up branches.

He put his hands on his hips and looked at Qingden calmly.

Although he couldn't see the other person's face because of the mask, Qingdeng was sure: the man in black was laughing.

"Although your skills still need to be improved, the light in your eyes and your talents are indeed worthy of praise."

The man in black stretched out the index and middle fingers of his right hand and pointed at his eyes.

"I kind of understand why you got the title of 'Nioh'."

After speaking, the man in black paused for a moment.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

"……Fine."

After a moment, the man in black, who seemed to have figured something out, turned around, walked slowly back to where he was standing just now, raised his hand and pulled out the wooden knife that he had inserted into the ground.

"Seeing as you didn't disappoint me too much... just think of it as a reward for you, and I'll show you something good."

The man in black was seen standing naturally in a very relaxed posture, and the wooden knife held in one hand with his right arm was slowly raised above his head.

Qingdeng, who thought the man in black was going to fight him again, endured the pain in his chest and staggered into his posture.

Although the strength gap between himself and the man in black has been clearly demonstrated in the series of confrontations just now... Qingden still didn't hesitate in raising his sword to fight again.

"Good stuff...do you want me to show you your special moves?"

The man in black's current actions coupled with his behavior just now... Qingdeng naturally thought that the man in black was going to show off his sword skills to show Qingdeng.

But who would have thought - after hearing Qingdeng's question, the man in black laughed "hahaha" as if he had heard some funny joke.

"The proud move...hahahahaha."

Under Qingdeng's puzzled gaze, the man in black slowly smiled happily and changed into a faint tone:

"What a move."

"What I want to show you... is much more powerful than the so-called moves."

"Hold your breath and concentrate, keep your eyes open and watch."

"Don't miss a beat of what you see next."

"Whether you can understand something from my sword... it all depends on your ability."

After that, the man in black closed his mouth.

And the moment the man in black stopped talking... Qingdeng's pupils shrank to the size of pinholes as he witnessed an indescribable scene.

It may be strange to say this...but Qingdeng did have such a weird feeling: the man in black in front of him...the wooden sword in his hand seemed to be one with the heaven and earth!
