Chapter 652: Chapter 728: Seizing the Sword

Looking at those sword techniques, Chen Nan felt a sense of deja vu in his heart; they seemed familiar.

Nine Yin Divine Claw!

Chen Nan remembered; these techniques were very similar to the Nine Yin Divine Claw that Xuan Tianji had taught him, only that the claw skill was converted into sword moves.

As a child, practicing martial arts alongside his junior sister Ye Yiyi, who was a girl with less physical strength than boys, opted for a more agile approach, focusing on techniques, while Chen Nan preferred powerful, expansive movements that overwhelmed with sheer force, a martial arts style where One Force Defeats Ten Skills.

The Nine Yin Divine Claw was more yin and soft, focusing on winning with techniques during combat, so Ye Yiyi practiced this set of claw skills diligently, whereas Chen Nan only practiced casually and did not train hard.

Compared to intricate techniques, he preferred the Thunderbolt Hand, which was powerful and overwhelmingly fierce.

Although Chen Nan had not trained hard in this claw skill, he had watched his junior sister practice it for many years, and he had practiced it himself, making him very familiar with each technique. So, he immediately recognized the similarities between the Dugu Nine Sword and the Nine Yin Divine Claw.

The Broken Sword Style engraved by the Black Feathered Chicken corresponded to the third move of the Nine Yin Divine Claw; converting the claw technique into a sword move made it exactly the same.

"If only my junior sister were here."

Chen Nan sighed, took out a Xuan Tie Sword, held it in his hand, and began studying these sword moves.

In understanding of the Nine Yin Divine Claw, he could not match one-tenth of his junior sister’s capability. If Ye Yiyi were here, she would just need to glance at it a few times and could merge the Broken Sword Style with the Nine Yin Divine Claw seamlessly.

The Black Feathered Chicken displayed a disdainful expression on its face: "Such a big man, and you’re still relying on your junior sister? Aren’t you ashamed?"

"You know nothing, idiot, I can’t be bothered with you."

After looking through these sword moves, Chen Nan closed his eyes and reviewed the Nine Yin Divine Claw in his mind. Then, drawing his sword, he began practicing in the woods with his Martial Intent flowing freely.

Seeing Chen Nan handle the sword with ease, the Black Feathered Chicken’s eyes widened.

"Damn, how is this possible!"

It couldn’t believe its own eyes; he had just begun practicing, how could he have reached such a level of understanding? Even a genius couldn’t master it at first glance!

It couldn’t help but ask, "Kid, have you practiced this swordsmanship before?"

"No."

Chen Nan shook his head, stuck the long sword into the ground, then, with his hands shaped like claws, performed the third move of the Nine Yin Divine Claw and said to the Black Feathered Chicken, "How about that claw skill?"

The Black Feathered Chicken clearly noticed the similarity between this set of claw skills and the Broken Sword Style, and exclaimed, "What... what’s going on here?"

Chen Nan pulled out the long sword and continued practicing. He said, "This is the Nine Yin Divine Claw of my master. Unfortunately, I have never focused much on techniques; I just practiced it a bit back then."

"So, what did you mean by mentioning your junior sister just now?"

"This set of claw skills, my junior sister has mastered to a proficient extent. If we don’t talk about inner strength, just based on the techniques alone, she’s nearly caught up with my master. Moreover, her understanding of techniques is higher than mine. If she were to practice the Dugu Nine Sword, she would definitely master it immediately."

"I see!"

The Black Feathered Chicken nodded, then lay down on the ground, motionless.

Chen Nan thought it might come up with some help, but unexpectedly, it just fell asleep. As he kicked a stone at its head, Chen Nan continued practicing his sword moves.

The Black Feathered Chicken wailed miserably, flapping its wings wildly.

However, Chen Nan acted as if he hadn’t noticed and completely ignored it as though he was dealing with a fool.

The sun rose in the east and set in the west, and Chen Nan had been practicing for three whole days, achieving an advancement of two levels in his swordsmanship.

In this forest, although he had no food to eat, his storage ring was filled with a considerable amount of spiritual medicine he had obtained from the Black Feathered Chicken, absorbing the nutrients and spiritual energy to nourish his body, which was even more effective than eating.

Three days later, Chen Nan went to challenge the middle-aged man again but was still disastrously defeated, forcing him to return to the woods to continue practicing his sword.

After ten more days of practice, Chen Nan felt that his understanding of the Broken Sword Style had reached a considerable height, and he realized that continuing to train in the short term would yield no further progress.

He approached the stele and began to study meticulously the sword technique of the middle-aged man.

Two hours later, Chen Nan grabbed his sword, turned around, and kicked the Black Feathered Chicken awake from its sleep, "Stop sleeping, it’s time to hit the road."

The Black Feathered Chicken first cursed loudly, then pecked at its head several times and asked doubtfully, "Do you have a way to defeat him now?"

"His cultivation is much higher than mine; even if he suppresses his power, his understanding of the technique is much superior. I can’t defeat him," Chen Nan said, gripping his sword tightly, "But I have a way to seize the sword in his hand."

Saying this, Chen Nan walked towards the Medicine Field.

Seeing Chen Nan emerge, the middle-aged man stepped out of the Medicine Field and flicked his hand, "You’re no match for me right now. Go back and train for three to five more years, then come back and find me."

Three to five years!

Chen Nan couldn’t wait that long because Su Qingqing couldn’t afford to wait.

Having already wasted fifteen days here, he didn’t know how much more difficult the path ahead would be. Chen Nan couldn’t afford to waste time; he was prepared to pay any price as long as he could make the man’s sword leave his hand.

Slowly drawing his long sword, Chen Nan threw the scabbard on the ground, "Please enlighten me, senior."

"Come on!"

The middle-aged man sighed, standing with his sword ready, always letting Chen Nan make the first move.

Chen Nan leapt forward, making a sweeping cut at the middle-aged man’s neck.

The middle-aged man raised his sword to block, but Chen Nan suddenly changed his move, flicking his sword tip upwards to stab at his face. The opponent, however, was faster, and with one strike, deflected Chen Nan’s attack and then thrust directly towards Chen Nan’s left chest.

Unexpectedly, instead of evading the attack, Chen Nan stepped forward.

The middle-aged man had intended to withdraw his sword and make Chen Nan concede, but Chen Nan bumped into him head-on, blocking the sword tip with his chest.

"Pu..."

Blood spattered as the long sword pierced into Chen Nan’s left chest.

However, as if oblivious to the pain, Chen Nan’s chest muscles tensed, forcefully gripping the sword, while his left hand rose to grasp the middle-aged man’s blade with the Crack Sky Hand, and his right hand swiftly swung his sword, slashing toward his opponent’s arm.

The middle-aged man’s expression changed. He tried to retreat by pulling back, but the long sword was stuck in Chen Nan’s body and firmly grasped by his left hand, making it impossible to withdraw for a moment.

As Chen Nan’s blade was about to strike his right arm, the middle-aged man had no choice but to let go of the hilt and retreat to dodge.

"Clang..."

Chen Nan steadied himself with his sword, his body swaying slightly.

He glanced at the long sword piercing his left chest, slowly pulled it out, then pressed the acupoint to stop the bleeding, and looked at the middle-aged man, "Senior, your sword has left your hand, please help show the way."
