…
That night, Ye Chen rested in the yard, while Yan Xingtian stayed up all night, busy around the world, seemingly setting up some formations and traps.
The next morning, Yan Xingtian woke up Ye Chen and said, "Boy, let's go. I'll take you to practice."
Ye Chen's heart moved slightly. This Yan Xingtian was the former king of the divine world and the best master in the world. With his guidance, he would be able to achieve breakthroughs in martial arts.
Ye Chen followed Yan Xingtian and walked all the way to a mountain in the center of Xingtian Realm.
This mountain is completely different from the surrounding environment. The spiritual energy is obviously much richer, the divine light shines, taking over the creation of heaven and earth, and invading the mystery of the sun and moon.
A white dragon-like waterfall hangs upside down from the cliff, and the water roars, which is very spectacular.
Yan Xingtian pointed at the mountain and said: "This mountain is called the Mountain of Emperor Tai. It is a great divine object that I brought out from the world of gods and heavens. Legend has it that it was born from the golden wheel of the Emperor of Heaven. Please stay on this mountain." Sitting quietly and enlightening yourself under the waterfall may improve your martial arts."
Ye Chen looked at the Taihuang Mountain and felt the majesty of the waterfall. He couldn't help but take a deep breath. The rich spiritual energy filled the surroundings, making people feel refreshed.
Moreover, Ye Chen also keenly noticed that there were formation patterns engraved on the Taihuang Mountain. The traces were still new. It must have been arranged by Yan Xingtian last night.
Even Ye Chen couldn't decipher these formation patterns at a glance. If you want to unlock the secrets, you have to carefully understand and figure them out.
Ye Chen nodded. These formation patterns obviously came from the ancient era. They are almost lost today and he has never seen them before.
With the help of these formation patterns, Ye Chen's understanding of martial arts will be smoother.
"Thank you, senior. If my martial arts really improves, I will definitely find a way to heal your injury."
Ye Chen cupped his hands and said.
Yan Xingtian laughed loudly and said calmly: "No need, my injury is a wound in the Taoist heart, which is difficult to treat. You should practice hard. I treat you as a good brother and a good friend. I will wait for you to win the throne in the future." Winner of the Meritorious Battle, let’s have another drink!”
Ye Chen said: "Yes!"
At that moment, Ye Chen flew under the waterfall and sat cross-legged on a large bluestone. Under the waterfall, he silently understood the general trend of the world and the secrets of martial arts.
Yan Xingtian put his hands behind his back, smiled and said, "Old man, I'll go around and help you keep an eye on the surroundings, so that the woman doesn't send anyone to cause trouble."
After saying that, Yan Xingtian started patrolling around Taihuang Mountain to protect Ye Chen.
Ye Chen sat quietly under the waterfall, feeling peaceful.
This Taihuang Mountain is a great divine object, born from the Heavenly Emperor's Golden Wheel. It gives Ye Chen a very familiar feeling, and he can capture the unique brilliant light of the Heavenly Emperor's Golden Wheel on it.
Moreover, Yan Xingtian was still on the mountain and carved many seals, which made Ye Chen's spirit as cold as washing with water and as sharp as ever.
Ye Chen could clearly capture the movement of heaven and earth, the flow of waterfalls, the flow of spiritual energy, etc. The Taoist heart had entered a wonderful realm, and even communicated with Wuwu.
After sitting quietly for three days, Ye Chen opened his eyes, with an unwavering look in his eyes.
During these three days, he had a vague understanding, which was similar to Shisui, but even more transcendent than Shisui. His own martial arts and swordsmanship had greatly improved.
Yan Xingtian saw Ye Chen waking up and said happily: "Boy, you're awake. What have you realized in the past three days? I have poured all the divine aura of the Taihuang Mountain into you. If you don't understand anything, Yeah, you can’t blame me.”
Ye Chen looked at Yan Xingtian and said, "Senior, I have some insights and would like to try the sword on you, is that okay?"
Yan Xingtian was stunned and said, "Want to try the sword on me?"
After a pause, he smiled boldly and said, "Come on! I want to see how far your swordsmanship has improved."
After saying that, he put his hands behind his back and looked at Ye Chen with squinted eyes.
Ye Chen stood still and didn't move, but suddenly, a sharp edge passed by, and a strand of Yan Xingtian's white hair was cut off.
"Nine sky-cutting swords, murderous intention without trace?"
When Yan Xingtian saw this, his expression changed drastically and he took a step back.
It's not that Ye Chen didn't move just now, but he moved too fast, distorting the law of time, so he seemed to be still.
But in fact, at that moment, Ye Chen had already drawn his sword, cut off a strand of Yan Xingtian's white hair, and then sheathed the sword. The whole process was incredibly fast, time was distorted, and on the surface it looked as motionless as a sculpture.
This sword is the eighth sword among the nine swords that cut the sky, killing without trace!
After three days of enlightenment, Ye Chen's swordsmanship has improved greatly, and his murderous intention has been far better than before. He can even cut off a strand of Yan Xingtian's white hair silently.
Yan Xingtian was in a daze, a little in disbelief, and said: "You boy, the way of swordsmanship is so secretive. If you chop off my head, won't I definitely die?"
Ye Chen smiled and said: "Senior, you are over-praised. How can I be so powerful? My sword has no trace of killing intent. In fact, there is still a little gap between me and Ye Linyuan. I really have no intention of harming you, so the sword energy is mysterious." It's unpredictable, but as long as I have thoughts of killing, you will definitely notice it and you can't let me succeed."
At the end, Ye Chen shook his head with some regret. After all, his sword could not truly kill without leaving a trace. Although it was a huge improvement compared to before, it was not to the extreme.
Yan Xingtian felt relieved when he heard Ye Chen's words.
Indeed, Ye Chen had no murderous intention, so there was no murderous intention when he drew the sword, and he didn't feel it.
If Ye Chen really had murderous intentions, even if there were no traces of the sword energy, he would definitely be able to catch the subtle changes in the heavens and would not be able to sit still and wait for death.
Under the huge gap in cultivation level, the traces of Tianji's changes will be more drastic. Even if the murderous intention is completely hidden, the changes in Tianji cannot be hidden, and he will eventually catch it.
"You kid, you almost scared me to death. I thought your swordsmanship was really capable of killing the Immortal Emperor."
Yan Xingtian laughed, but his tone could not conceal his fear, and he was deeply shocked by Ye Chen's swordsmanship.
Although it is impossible for Ye Chen to kill him now, if he continues to grow at this rate, it is only a matter of time before he can kill all enemies in the world.
After regaining his composure, Yan Xingtian rolled his eyes and said, "I heard that if you can master the Nine Heaven-Severing Swords, you will be invincible in the world. You spar with me and I will prove your martial arts for you and help you." Break through the last sword!"
Ye Chen was overjoyed and said: "Okay!"
He flew out of the waterfall and was about to compete with Yan Xingtian to prove his martial arts.
But at this moment, a small black spider swooped out from the woods in the distance and bit Ye Chen hard in the face.
Yan Xingtian's expression changed drastically, and he was about to defend Ye Chen.
