Chapter Seventeen: Waterfall Practicing Body

  He swallowed three snake gallbladders, and Chen Yunfeng quickly absorbed the medicinal effects of the snake gall with his true yuan. A warm and refreshing true energy spread throughout his body once again, while he rapidly eliminated the toxins from the snake gall through his breath.

  After absorbing the medicinal properties, Chen Yunfeng sprang up, using his toes to pick up the heavy sword and grasping it in his hand, then looked at the Divine Eagle and said in a deep voice:

  "Alright, no big deal, shall we continue competing?"

  The divine eagle shook its head violently, turned around and hopped along the mountain valley for a distance, looked back at Chen Yunfeng and chirped, waiting for Chen Yunfeng to catch up before continuing on into the valley.

  Originally, the Gu Bo Ti Snake Gall did not fully absorb the true energy, and a part of it would enhance physical strength. However, Chen Yunfeng had cultivated the Hunyuan Xiantian Yin Yang Jue, directly absorbing all the medicinal effects into true energy. Although his arm strength increased significantly, he didn't have the same powerful effect as Yang Guo's direct body strengthening.

  This divine eagle actually found it strange, its powerful body was due to swallowing snake gall, unexpectedly Chen Yunfeng had eaten snake gall for a whole year, his internal power had reached the level of a top master with over 30 years of experience, but his arm strength hadn't increased much.

  This is the difference between internal and external skills. Chen Yunfeng's exercises are almost all Taoist true energy, which is a way of cultivation from inside to outside. Xuan Tie Zhong Jian requires great arm strength, which is indeed the top-notch kung fu of external skills.

  The Divine Eagle didn't understand that Dugu Qiubai was originally an unparalleled master who cultivated both internal and external skills. Chen Yunfeng only thought that cultivating internal strength could defeat enemies with powerful techniques, and as for the cultivation of heavy swords, he still regarded it as simple chopping in mountain floods. In fact, that is also a powerful method of cultivating external skills, which naturally requires very strong internal energy to achieve.

  The divine eagle brought Chen Yunfeng to a rapidly flowing stream, flapped its wings and pointed to a not-so-large but tens of meters high waterfall pond. In the middle of the pond was a huge boulder weighing hundreds of tons, and the water from the waterfall crashed against it.

  "Practicing swordplay in a waterfall?" Chen Yunfeng asked unexpectedly, looking at the Divine Eagle.

  He thought the Divine Eagle would wait for a few days before bringing him to the mountain flood, but instead it brought him directly to this place. However, training here should be much more effective than in the mountain flood.

  The Divine Eagle nodded, and Chen Yunfeng carried the heavy sword to wade through the water and climb up the giant rock. The huge impact of the waterfall made him climb up several times and was washed down again. Finally, he gritted his teeth and turned his whole body's true energy to use the gecko skill to stick tightly to the smooth mirror-like giant rock, and finally stayed on the rock.

  In the waterfall, Chen Yunfeng was stunned, but wanting to dance with his sword inside was extremely difficult. Even standing upright was a challenge under the waterfall. He narrowed his eyes and slowly stood up, laboriously swinging the heavy Xuan Tie sword to make slow slashes.

  "Hmm..."

  In less than three minutes, Chen Yunfeng was washed down the giant rock by the waterfall again. He gritted his teeth and, in order to make a name for himself in the world of Shen Diao, he climbed up the giant rock once more, swinging his heavy sword, only to be washed down again. And so he climbed up once more...

  Day after day, he climbed up and down, and every day the divine eagle would bring him a few snake gallbladders. After more than ten days of continuous practice, the heavy sword in Chen Yunfeng's hand began to break through the water curtain under the waterfall, and the sound of the sword hummed, even the roar of the waterfall couldn't stop it.

  The current Xuan Tie heavy sword in Chen Yunfeng's hand is like a normal long sword, with the rapid swing of the sword, the sword energy brings water droplets flying away. At this time, he still can't understand the great cleverness, and can only understand the first layer of meaning of the heavy sword, which is to lift heavily as if lightly.

  After watching countless times, Chen Yunfeng knew the key points of practicing swordsmanship: heavy as light, light as heavy, fast as lightning, slow as a thousand jun. Now he can easily wield the heavy sword, which has already reached a high level in the way of the sword. However, to regain the previous effect of slowing down and being able to control his enemies, he still needs to cultivate for a long time to comprehend it.

  Chen Yunfeng was constantly studying the simplest sword moves in the waterfall, chopping, stabbing, lifting and sweeping. These most basic sword intentions are the usage rules of heavy swords, with a huge weight advantage. If you use sword moves to make fancy gestures or use various skills to kill enemies, it would be a waste of the existence of heavy swords.

  "Rumble... Crack..."

  A distant rumble of thunder came from the horizon, Chen Yunfeng, who was practicing his swordplay, turned his head to look up at the sky, which had already been completely shrouded in dark clouds. The divine eagle seemed to know that it was about to rain and had already jumped into a stone cave on a mountain slope, its eyes fixed motionless on Chen Yunfeng, who was cultivating under the waterfall.

  During this period, Chen Yunfeng had become accustomed to cultivating in the waterfall, and his Qigong had also made great progress. His strength had increased by more than tenfold due to the constant stimulation of the snake gall medicine entering his body.

  Standing under the waterfall, the water curtain that had been pouring down from above no longer had any effect on him. In these few days of battling against the Divine Eagle, the Divine Eagle had completely lost its power advantage and was once again being bullied by Chen Yunfeng.

  "Crack... crackle..."

  A streak of lightning flashed across the sky, and in an instant, dense raindrops as big as beans fell to the ground. The sky turned into a dark mass as the rain fell, with only thunderclaps and the increasingly loud roar of waterfalls surrounding everything.

  Chen Yunfeng's body was like a thousand-pound weight, his feet firmly nailed to the giant stone, facing the impact of the increasingly powerful waterfall, swinging his heavy sword. As the waterfall grew larger and larger, Chen Yunfeng was washed down from the boulder again and again, but he climbed back up again and again. Perseverance is victory, this phrase that someone had once said to him had become a truth here.

  The rain didn't stop for half a month, and the continuous heavy rain caused the waterfall to become bigger and bigger with the mountain flood. There were constantly rocks and trees falling from above, Chen Yunfeng not only had to stand firm but also had to see clearly through the mist what was falling from above, and he would definitely not dodge anything that could be blocked.

  "Ahhh..."

  A loud roar echoed through the sky after the rain, Chen Yunfeng had already stopped training under the waterfall. After a month of intense training and eating over 200 snake gallbladders, his true strength surged again with his physical strength, although he still hadn't reached the peak of the top rank, he was much stronger than before.

  What's more important is that his current physical strength has exceeded 2,000 catties, and if he uses his true energy, he can almost exchange two moves with a general super first-class master.

  At this time, there are many top-notch experts in the world of Condor Hero, such as Huang Rong, future Li Mochou, and Gong Sunzhi, who have all reached the level of super-first-rate. Even higher than that are Guo Jing and Huang Yaoshi, the absolute top-notch experts. In other words, Chen Yunfeng is now only slightly inferior to Li Mochou in terms of martial arts skills.

  "Old Eagle, I have something to attend to and need to go out for a trip. It's estimated that it will take three to two months to return. At that time, I'll bring wine back for you." Chen Yunfeng said in a low voice as he stood on the mountain top, looking at the divine eagle squatting beside him.
