Hearing this, Su Han's mouth curved slightly upward, revealing a half-smile.
"Lao Wan, maybe I won't even need a few months..."
"...or maybe I can master it just by watching once?"
Hearing this, Wan Jianyi let out a light snort.
He looked Su Han up and down and said dismissively, "Su Han, it's not that I look down on you, but you shouldn't be too arrogant."
"The path of the Sword Dao is destined to be long and arduous."
"This basic sword technique of mine might seem simple, but in reality, it contains countless profound mysteries I've comprehended over hundreds of years."
"An ordinary person might not even be able to grasp the basics in their entire lifetime."
"Even for a Sword Dao genius, it would take them decades to fully study it!"
"Therefore, even you, if you don't diligently study it, might not grasp the knack of it in a few months!"
Seeing this, Su Han lightly patted Wan Jianyi's shoulder.
"Ah, Lao Wan, I know your Sword Dao path wasn't easy, but I am different from you."
"Just watch!"
"Just try not to be too shocked..."
Wan Jianyi's brow furrowed slightly upon hearing Su Han's words.
"Hmph, Su Han, you certainly have a big mouth."
"I, Wan Jian... I, Lao Wan, have traversed the Sword Dao for hundreds of years, what kind of genius haven't I seen?"
"Even I am a genius among geniuses, one in ten thousand on the path of the Sword Dao."
"But someone like you who dares to boast like this is quite rare."
"Don't think that just because you have some talent, you can underestimate the difficulty of the Sword Dao."
"This basic sword technique is the culmination of my years of effort; how could its mysteries be something you can grasp with just one look?"
The bamboo branch in Wan Jianyi's hand swayed slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of seriousness and authority.
"I will watch and see how you master this basic sword technique in a short time!"
"If you can't do it, don't be so arrogant anymore."
With that said, Wan Jianyi stopped arguing with Su Han.
He decided to use practical action to make Su Han understand the profundity of the Sword Dao and abandon his contempt for it.
Thinking this.
Wan Jianyi slowly raised the bamboo branch in his hand, and his eyes instantly turned sharp.
If the Wan Jianyi from just now, despite his identity as a senior expert, had an extremely casual and unrestrained demeanor,
it was hard for people to be convinced by his words.
But at this moment!
When Wan Jianyi truly raised the bamboo branch in his hand, he seemed to have transformed into a 'peerless treasure sword'.
His sharpness was fully revealed, unstoppable.
Moreover, he exuded a powerful aura, a composure and dominance accumulated from hundreds of years of Sword Dao practice.
His every movement was filled with a sense of power, as if he could cut through all obstacles in the world.
Now, he was a true expert, standing at the peak of the Sword Dao!
"Watch closely, kid!"
Wan Jianyi let out a soft shout, and the bamboo branch in his hand shot out like lightning.
A powerful Sword Qi instantly erupted, and the surrounding air seemed to be distorted by this Sword Qi.
The dust on the ground was swept up by the Sword Qi, forming a small whirlwind.
The nearby leaves also fell one after another, as if pulled by an invisible force.
"Sword rises, wind and clouds stir; Qi sweeps, mountains and rivers tremble."
Wan Jianyi chanted softly while dancing the bamboo branch.
His figure was like a streak of lightning, leaving behind blurry afterimages in the air.
Wherever the bamboo branch went, Sword Qi crisscrossed, unstoppable.
"Sword shadow like frost and snow, sharpness pierces the sky."
As the verses were uttered, Wan Jianyi's sword momentum became increasingly fierce.
The surrounding stones were struck by the Sword Qi, instantly shattering into pieces and scattering.
The distant lake water was also stirred up by the Sword Qi, creating layers of waves and emitting rumbling sounds.
Wan Jianyi's sword technique was like a magnificent 'performance', full of power and beauty.
Every one of his movements was incredibly precise, as if forged through countless trials.
At this moment, Su Han watched Wan Jianyi's unparalleled Sword Dao 'performance', his eyes filled with amazement.
He couldn't help but secretly praise in his heart, 'Wan Jianyi is indeed a peak Sword Dao expert. Everyone I've seen before, in terms of Sword Dao alone, cannot compare to him!'
'Although this sword technique is a basic sword technique...'
'But!'
'Its exquisiteness and the grandeur of its momentum are truly astonishing, truly astonishing!'
Su Han's gaze closely followed Wan Jianyi's figure, silently memorizing every movement of this basic sword technique.
He could feel that Wan Jianyi's sword technique seemed simple, but it contained countless techniques.
Every sword swing, every trace of Sword Qi, had a unique 'rhythm' and 'tempo'.
At this moment, Su Han seemed to have entered a brand new world of 'sword'. Those previously vague Sword Dao principles became clear at this moment.
He began to understand what Wan Jianyi said about the importance of basic sword techniques.
He also understood why the path of the Sword Dao was so long and arduous.
Moreover, as his comprehension deepened, Su Han could clearly feel his progress in the fundamentals of the Sword Dao.
He felt as if he could touch that powerful force, which was a deeper understanding and control of the Sword Dao.
He knew this was just the beginning!
By constantly discussing the Sword Dao with Wan Jianyi, he would continuously break through himself on the path of the Sword Dao and go further.
One day, he would create his own 'era'!
After a long while.
Having finished performing the sword technique, Wan Jianyi stood with the bamboo branch lowered, looking at Su Han.
His first thought was not to ask about Su Han's gains.
Instead, the corner of his mouth curved slightly upward, revealing a smug smile: "Su Han, what do you think of this set of sword techniques of mine?"
"It's cool, right?"
Meanwhile, Su Han was currently immersed in his comprehension of the Sword Dao.
Wan Jianyi's sword technique was like a huge stone thrown into the lake of his heart, stirring up ripples.
Possessing the Heavenly Sword entry, he had already fully comprehended Wan Jianyi's basic sword technique in this short period.
Furthermore, relying on his accumulated knowledge from his previous life and his unique way of thinking, he had even made improvements to some parts of it.
Hearing Wan Jianyi's question, Su Han slowly came back to his senses, his eyes sparkling with admiration.
"Lao Wan, I have to say, your sword technique is indeed exquisite and unparalleled."
Su Han praised sincerely, "Especially the verses you chanted while performing the sword technique, they add a touch of heroism and dominance to the sword technique."
Hearing Su Han's praise, the smug look on Wan Jianyi's face grew even stronger.
"Haha, naturally."
"Whether the sword technique is strong or not can be set aside, but it's definitely cool!"
"Moreover, this basic sword technique is the culmination of my years of effort; how could it be ordinary?!"
However, soon, Wan Jianyi became serious again.
"Su Han."
"You just said you could master my basic sword technique just by watching once."
"Do you still think so now?"
Wan Jianyi looked at Su Han, feeling secretly smug.
"Hmph, you were so arrogant earlier, now that you've witnessed my sword technique, you should know how impressive it is, right?"
"I, Wan Jianyi, have traversed the Sword Dao for hundreds of years; how could my basic sword technique be something he can master with just one look?"
"Even if he's exceptionally talented, it's absolutely impossible!"
"Now I'd like to see how you can still be stubborn?"
Thinking of this, the corner of Wan Jianyi's mouth curved slightly upward, revealing a faint, almost imperceptible smile.
His eyes were full of anticipation, waiting for Su Han's answer.
Hearing this, Su Han didn't explain, but just smiled slightly.
"Lao Wan, actually, I also know a set of basic sword techniques, and it's better than yours. I'd like to ask you to appraise it."
