Chapter 33: The Defeat Dog Sword Technique Generates Unnecessary Emotions! Skipping the plot is skip
Faced with the vast and magnificent sword energy of the Sun Sword Formation, which seemed to illuminate everything like the sun, Gu Ziyue was completely dumbfounded.
Her pupils suddenly contracted, her hands and feet turned ice-cold, and only one thought remained in her mind...
We're doomed, there's no escaping it now.
However, at that moment, Dong Mo's loud shout instantly woke up Gu Ziyue, who was in a daze.
"A 45-degree upward sword strike from the four o'clock position!"
Gu Ziyue was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. Before her brain could react, her body acted first.
Following Dong Mo's previous instructions, she suddenly twisted her foot and, at an extremely tricky angle, slashed the Xihe Sword in her hand at the puppet.
"Clang..."
The hum of clashing weapons made her hands go numb.
Then, a dark sword silently emerged from the shadow of the Fire Star Lord, and Gu Ziyue precisely parried it just three inches from the side of her neck.
That was a backstab from the Moon Goddess, hidden under the cover of the Sun Sword Formation's intense light, specifically designed to reap the prey terrified by the Sun Sword Formation's power.
A layer of cold sweat instantly seeped out from Gu Ziyue's back.
Before she could react, Dong Mo's voice rang out behind her again.
"Miss Ziyue! Roll fifteen steps to the left on the spot!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyue didn't hesitate at all, and instantly curled herself into a ball and rolled to the left.
The moment he stood up, he stepped right onto the key node of the Sun Sword Formation.
The originally formed Sun Sword Formation now seems to have had its most crucial skeleton removed.
The originally fierce sword light instantly became chaotic, and the nine puppets' attack faltered for a moment.
Dong Mo stood outside the barrier, his double pupils reflecting the movement trajectory and flaws of the Nine Luminaries Sword Formation, while system notifications from the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique kept ringing in his mind.
Dong Mo followed his instructions, and Gu Ziyue obeyed.
The two worked together more and more seamlessly, and one sword formation after another was broken by Gu Ziyue under Dong Mo's command!
Chonghua, Xuanming, Yinghuo, Ketu, Rahu...
The key points of all the sword formations were precisely identified, and the timing of each break was just right.
However, as the puppets kept changing their moves, Dong Mo's brows gradually furrowed.
As the sword formation changed continuously, the puppets' movements became increasingly unfamiliar.
The sword moves that Dong Mo could previously clearly recognize suddenly became increasingly obscure and difficult to understand.
Even the system prompts given by the Tranquil Sword Technique began to become intermittent, and even almost gave incorrect instructions several times.
Just then, the nine puppets before them suddenly completed their ninth sword formation reorganization, forming the Taiyin Sword Formation headed by the Taiyin Star Lord.
"Calm down, what do you think of this sword formation?"
[Tranquil Mind Sword Technique: I...I don't recognize it. This isn't a sword move I know.]
Upon seeing this, Dong Mo's heart suddenly sank.
"Xiao Mo! Did you spot the flaw?!"
Gu Ziyue's voice came from inside the barrier, and she looked somewhat disheveled.
Her steps became chaotic, and the sword light released by the Taiyin Sword Formation followed her like a shadow. If it weren't for the treasured robe given to her by the Jin Yun Demon Emperor protecting Gu Ziyue, she would probably have been riddled with holes by those puppets by now!
Even so, a thin, long bloody gash was still cut on her cheek by the sword wind.
"Don't worry! Almost done! It'll be done in a minute!"
Dong Mo was sweating profusely with anxiety, staring intently at the sword formation operating within the light screen.
She tried her best to analyze the sword techniques using the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique, but she just couldn't see through the trajectories of those sword moves!
However, at this critical moment, Dong Mo suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had realized something.
Hiss... wait a minute, the way this Taiyin Sword Formation operates feels so similar to the second move of the Tranquil Mind True Explanation that I deduced in my mind before using my double pupils to correct my mistakes.
Just as Dong Mo was thinking this, a flash of sword light swept past, and a strand of purple hair by Gu Ziyue's ear was cut off at the root, falling softly to her feet.
"Xiao Mo! Think of something quick! I can't hold on much longer!"
Dong Mo gritted his teeth and drew the Purple Nether Sword.
"The Tranquil Mind Sword Technique," Dong Mo murmured to himself.
[Tranquil Sword Technique: What...?]
"Didn't you just promise me that you would do everything in your power to help me cultivate the sword technique to the third level?"
[Tranquil Mind Sword Technique: That's true. You don't mean for me to...]
"Exactly."
[Tranquil Sword Technique: Well... alright.]
Dong Mo took a deep breath, brandished the Purple Nether Sword, and assumed the starting stance of the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique.
Seeing Dong Mo outside the barrier suddenly start practicing his sword, Gu Ziyue, who was struggling against the puppets inside the barrier, suddenly froze.
Huh? What's this guy doing? Is he practicing his sword?
Wait a minute, that's not right. Who practices swordsmanship like that?
The movements were so fast it was like being chased by a dog. One move was barely halfway through before the next one came in. The outlines of the sword moves were barely discernible, but all the movements were so hasty, as if they were rushing to hand in an assignment.
Gu Ziyue was dumbfounded, feeling that this guy's way of practicing swordsmanship was simply unheard of.

Dong Mo completely ignored the system's prompts and continued to rapidly swing the Purple Nether Sword.
In fact, Dong Mo had already discovered the system vulnerability when he broke through the second level of the Tranquil Sword Technique.
Your affinity and proficiency in sword practice are calculated based on completing a full set of sword techniques, and have little to do with the accuracy of your movements during practice.
Therefore, as long as you maintain the general outline and keep your sword practice movements from deviating from the intended form until the judgment fails, the system will accept it without question.
Although I can only get half of the normal reward after doing this, the speed is too fast!
The time it normally takes to practice one set can be used to complete five sets in one go using this method.
Overall efficiency, on the contrary, more than doubled.
The current situation is critical, and this is the perfect opportunity for me to use this quick-learning bug-training method!

[Tranquil Sword Technique: I didn't like it...]
【jump over.】
.........
[Tranquil Sword Technique: Can you concentrate for a second...?]
【jump over.】
.........
[Tranquil Sword Technique: Are you even listening to me...?]
【jump over.】

Like a gamer frantically skipping through dialogue to get rewards, Dong Mo closed each pop-up dialogue window that appeared in front of him, his hands moving non-stop.
What was that saying again? Oh...right! Right now, Dong Mo is like he's skipping through his own life!
At this moment, Dong Mo is just one step away from the third level of the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique. At this rate, he only needs to practice ten more sets to break through smoothly.
Faced with the combined attack of a group of puppets, Gu Ziyue could only struggle to defend herself. At this point, she had no choice but to trust Dong Mo.
"Xiao Mo! You're still not done..."
Gu Ziyue shouted, and Luo Hou's sword grazed her shoulder. Gu Ziyue dodged awkwardly, her voice slightly hoarse.
"Don't rush me! It'll be ready soon! It'll be ready soon!"
Dong Mo's wrist flicked, the sword light weaving a blur of afterimages.

As the system notification sounded, Dong Mo suddenly felt a tremor run through his body.
The third level of the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique has been mastered.
Looking back on all the little things we've experienced together recently, I'm moved, and a strange feeling has welled up in my heart for you...
That's unease and confusion! Although she's reluctant to admit it, you've already unknowingly earned a place in her heart.
Current progress: 39%
Current Affection Level: Attachment
[The Tranquil Sword Technique proficiency has been increased to level three.]
[Because the affinity level of the Tranquil Mind Sword Technique has increased to the level of Attachment, the host is hereby rewarded with: Tranquil Mind True Understanding - Formation Breaking Style.]
【Tranquility and True Understanding: Formation-Breaking Technique: A sword-based killing move created by the Sword Saint Xiao Hongchen, containing the essence of formations, and said to be able to break all formations in the world.】
Immediately afterwards, countless exquisite sword techniques surged into Dong Mo's mind, including various methods for breaking and sealing various magic arrays, sword arrays, and even secret realm arrays.
Dong Mo suddenly opened his eyes and instantly understood everything.
"A single yin cannot grow, nor can a single yang produce anything!"
"Miss Ziyue! Quickly lure that Rahu puppet to the side of the Sun puppet!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Ziyue did as instructed without hesitation. Gritting her teeth, she moved like a ghost past the Luo Hou sword, using a precise feint to lure her opponent to the position of the Sun Star Lord.
"Crouch down!"
As Dong Mo shouted, Gu Ziyue responded by bending down.
The moment she crouched down, Rahu Star Lord's heavy sword swept across her head, striking Sun Star Lord's head with immense force.
The hastily carved head fell to the ground and rolled to Gu Ziyue's feet.
Immediately afterward, the entire sword formation froze. The remaining puppets, like a disorganized army without command, began to fight amongst themselves. Within seconds, the nine puppets had turned into a pile of parts.
The barrier that had trapped Gu Ziyue also vanished without a trace after a buzzing sound.
Gu Ziyue slumped to the ground, staring at the wood chips and severed limbs of the puppet, panting heavily.
Seeing this, Dong Mo quickly stepped forward and asked with concern.
"Miss Ziyue, are you alright...?"
As soon as Dong Mo finished speaking, a violent tremor came from beneath their feet.
Upon seeing this, both of them felt a chill in their hearts, thinking that they had triggered some kind of mechanism again.
However, after seeing the source of the tremor, the two who were initially at a loss breathed a sigh of relief.
It turned out to be three stone platforms that slowly rose from the ground.
