At the foot of the hillside, the void was split open, the sword energy was criss-crossing, stirring the rocks and causing them to fall, leaving traces on the earth. The figures of Nan An and Ye Ling kept colliding in the void, and the sound of sword chants spread thousands of miles away, triggering the sound of Taoism.
Nan'an seemed to have really exerted the power to kill Ye Ling, forcing Ye Ling to be in a life-and-death situation and not daring to slack off in the slightest.
Nan'an's swordsmanship was extremely pure and his killing intent was fierce. Cracks were cut out of the surrounding void, as if it could break the heaven and the earth.
Ye Ling activated his edge and used the first two moves of the Heaven-Destroying Sword Technique alternately, with all his strength, but was suppressed by Nan An and could not gain the slightest advantage.
However, in this moment between life and death, Ye Ling suddenly felt his consciousness clear. Nan'an's sharp edge was mixed with his own, making him seem to have some insights.
The two swords struck each other faster than the other, and their swords clashed, causing the void to tremble. The commotion here attracted Jiang Fan, Xu Nuo, Ming Xuyu and Yue Zhufeng.
Yue Zhufeng said: "Everyone talks about the decline of swordsmanship, but the two of us know that this statement is untrue." Ming Xueyu sighed: "If the two of us also have such fighting power, why do we need to be called thieves? People are chasing and killing them." Although Ming Xuyu and Yue Zhufeng have unparalleled physical skills, they have no advantage in fighting with others. In a head-to-head duel in the same realm, they are only at the middle level.
Xu Nuo on the side watched his master fight with you in kendo. He couldn't help but yearn for it. He clenched his small fists tightly and had ideas about kendo.
Not long after, Ye Ling suddenly stepped out, and then stood still. His eyes slowly closed, and the sharp aura around him was hidden.
When Nan An saw him like this, he couldn't help but smile, then sheathed his sword, turned around, told Jiang Fan and others not to disturb him, and left.
For three months in a row, Ye Ling stood there without moving. The kendo edge around him changed slightly, but outsiders couldn't tell.
Xu Nuo would sit on the hillside every day and look at his master Ye Ling from a distance. He asked Jiang Fan for a trunk of a three-thousand-year-old sacred tree, and carved it carefully with a knife every day, intending to carve out a wooden sword like Ye Ling.
On this day, Xu Nuo was sitting on the hillside carving swords. At the foot of the mountain, Ye Ling's aura suddenly changed. His sword technique penetrated the heaven and earth, and an extremely pure sword intention reached Qiongxiao.
Above the clouds, Nan An looked at Ye Ling on the ground, couldn't help but smile with relief, and then left. The sky was filled with sharp energy. Ye Ling was still standing, but his whole body seemed to be one with the wooden sword. Sword energy shot out vertically and horizontally, and the void was split.
After an unknown amount of time, Ye Ling suddenly opened his eyes, took a step forward, and slashed the wooden sword towards the sky. The edge of the sword suddenly shot out. The sky changed drastically, and a deep space-time rift appeared. The whole small world seemed to be shaken.
In the distant manor, Jiang Fan and Ming were in the shower, and Yue Zhufeng hurriedly ran out to see Ye Ling. Behind him, Leng Busu and Suan Wuwei stepped up into the air side by side, looking at the hillside outside the village: "What a sharp edge, such pure sword intent, I have only seen it in Nan'an. You can do calculations, why not do this calculation?" The origin of the boy.”
"I have deduced it a long time ago, but it's a pity that his fate is so unclear that I can't deduce it."
"Oh" Leng Buxin heard this and said in surprise: "There are actually people in this world that you can't calculate. It seems that this kid has an extraordinary origin!" Suan Wuji frowned and said: "Although I can't deduce the specific destiny, I can be sure. Yes, this son is destined to commit murder, and most of the people who are with him will not end well."
"This..." He was silent and had no choice but to believe his words, and became cautious in his heart. At the foot of the hillside, Ye Ling's wooden sword was put back behind his back, and the sharp edge in the sky disappeared.
In the past three months of enlightenment, he has found his own way of swordsmanship. In the past, he had always relied on the Heaven-Destroying Sword Technique, but it was a borrowed thing after all.
Sword art is just sword art, it can never become kendo! During the battle with Nan'an, Ye Ling figured it all out and finally realized his own swordsmanship.
It's just that time is still short at this moment, he can only vaguely glimpse the door, and still needs to continue to explore. Just as he was thinking about it, Xu Nuo ran down the hillside and said to Ye Ling with a smile: "Master, that sword strike you just made was so powerful that it even split the sky!" Ye Ling smiled and touched Xu Nuo's head, and suddenly noticed The uncarved divine wooden sword in his hand suddenly understood what Xu Nuo meant.
He squatted in front of Xu Nuo and said to him: "The journey of swordsmanship is very bumpy. You are half-demon. It will be easier if you practice magic. You should think carefully about abandoning magic to practice swordsmanship." Xu Nuo's eyes were firm. , with a decisive tone: "Master, don't worry, I will never regret it!" Ye Ling couldn't help but nodded and said: "Okay!" As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Ling pointed his fingers together and slashed out a sword energy, landing on both edges of the wooden sword. On top of it, the sword body was flattened, and a trace of his edge was attached to it.
"My master has left a ray of edge on your sword. When you can erase this edge with your own strength, when will you be able to become a master!" As soon as these words came out, Xu Nuo moved slightly, and there seemed to be something in his eyes. With plans and aspirations for the future.
The master and the apprentice talked for a while, and then Jiang Fan and the other three came closer, checked that Ye Ling was okay, and returned to the manor together.
That night, Nan An came to the manor and set up an incense table facing the north. Nan An respectfully offered three sticks of incense, turned to Ye Ling and said: "If you are willing to admit that you are a disciple of the Wanjian Divine Sect, then bow three times to this case. . If you don’t want to, I won’t force you.” Ye Ling thought about it and already made a decision.
He stepped forward without any hesitation, bowed his head and said: "Disciple Ye Ling, I would like to recognize my ancestor and return to the sect!" He promised behind him that as Ye Ling's disciple, he would naturally kneel down and worship with his master.
After worshiping the Lord of God, Ye Ling saluted Nan An again: "Thank you, uncle, for your teaching, which allowed Ye Ling to realize his own way!" After receiving this salute, Nan An said three words in a row.
The word "good" shows the meaning of pleasure. The man next to him suddenly smiled and said: "I haven't seen this iceberg so happy for a long time." Suan Wuwei said: "The Wanjian Shenzong can win this old man and the young one, maybe there is hope for the resumption of the sect. No wonder Nan'an is like this. Over the years, the Wanjian Shenzong has Grudge has always been a knot in his mind that he can't get rid of!" Bu Ci laughed and said, "Since it's a good thing, how can we come here without drinking? I think everyone's injuries have been healed. It hurts tonight. No one is allowed to drink without getting drunk!" As he spoke, everyone sat around, changing cups and drinking.
Nan'an had not drunk so much wine for a long time, and he talked a lot to Ye Ling while he was tipsy. I learned from Nan An that some of the surviving members of the Wanjian Shen Sect are now hiding at the junction of the Eastern Region and the Southern Region. They are very secretive and cannot be found by ordinary people.
They plan to accumulate strength and prepare to rebuild the sect. But the current strength is not enough. Except for Nan'an, there is no Celestial Realm monk in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Except for a few Immortal Realm elders, most of them are not as good as Ye Ling.
Especially the younger generation has not grown up and cannot bear the heavy responsibility. Because of this, Nan An was so happy to see Ye Ling.
In his eyes, Ye Ling is the only person capable of inheriting his ambition. However, Ye Ling did not have such thoughts. He had only heard about the deeds of the Wanjian Shen Sect and had no friendship with the Wanjian Shen Sect.
The reason why Ye Ling agreed to admit that he was a disciple of the Wanjian Divine Sect was to repay Nan An for his guidance.
Because Nan'an believed that Ye Ling had inherited the inheritance of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, he pointed out Ye Ling's shortcomings. Ye Ling reciprocated and was willing to join the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
It's just that he doesn't know now how much trouble such a hasty decision will bring him in the future. After a night of drinking, Ye Ling got up the next morning, gathered with Jiang Fan and others, and talked about his departure to Nanyuan.
Jiang Fan took the lead and said: "Brother Ye, I want to go with you. We finally meet again, and I don't want to be separated from each other anymore." Xu Nuo also jumped and said: "I also want to go with Master!" Ming Xueyu said with a smile: " I happen to have nothing to do, can Ye Zi take me with you?" Yue Zhufeng frowned and asked, "Does Ye Zi know where the South Garden is?" Ye Ling said, "I only heard that the South Garden is there. It's in Mengze, but I don't know the exact location."
"I don't know where it is. How can we find it? Do we have to bump into each other like headless flies?" Yue Zhufeng's words are reasonable, but Ming Xuyu said indifferently: "What are you afraid of? Let's go all the way to find someone." If you ask around, you can always find it. I'm almost suffocated here these days, so I might as well go out and get some fresh air." Yue Zhufeng said, "We just made a big fuss in Huixian Village, and many people from other sects were also arrested. Kill, I guess our lives can be exchanged for some spiritual stones. If you go out so arrogantly at this time, wouldn't you be throwing yourself into a trap?" After hearing this, a few people fell silent again.
At this time, he walked over unexpectedly and without warning. He suddenly smiled and said: "If you want to find the South Garden, I know someone who can show you the way."
"who"
"This person's name is Zhendao Spinner. Like us Jiu Kou, he is a casual cultivator in Dongfanghai Pavilion. I have some friendship with her. If you go to her with my letter, she may tell you about Nanyuan. Where." This was the first time Ye Ling and others knew that the Southeast Nine Bandits were also members of the Dongfanghai Pavilion.
Dongfang Hai Pavilion occupies the Xingluo Island in the southeast of the Holy Spirit Continent. It is a loose organization of casual cultivators. Almost all casual cultivators in the world can apply to join.
Suan Wuyi, who was standing next to him, said to Jiang Fan and the others: "In my opinion, it would be better for you to stay here if Ye Ling leaves."
"Why?" Ming Xuyu was puzzled. Suan Wuyi flicked the copper coin in his hand, and the Yin and Yang Bagua appeared on it. Then, Suan Wuyi waved his big hand, fixed the copper coin hexagram, and said: "If you go with Ye Ling, I'm afraid you will be in danger of your life, so don't Take risks." Several people looked at each other, seemingly not agreeing with Suan Wuwei's words.
But Ye Ling said: "That's fine. I'll go out alone. The target is small and it won't be easily discovered."
"But..." Jiang Fan persisted, and the person beside him suddenly smiled and said, "Don't worry, you will meet again in half a year."
"what for"
"In half a year, Dongfanghai Pavilion will open the forbidden area and invite talents from all over the world to break the formation. Why don't you join in the fun?" Ye Ling was puzzled. Yue Zhufeng explained to him: "There is a forbidden area in Dongfanghai Pavilion. , it is said that it is a Taoist treasure left by the ancient great power, and there is a supreme secret treasure inside. However, it was occupied by a group of casual cultivators from Dongfang Hai Pavilion. The three sects were unwilling to do so, and the two sides almost fought to the death. Later, Dongfang Hai Pavilion compromised, and ten The great masters of the Mingwei Realm have joined forces to set up ten Taoist formations. Monks at the Yingchong Realm and below can challenge them. As long as they survive these ten formations, they will be eligible to enter the forbidden area." Leng Bubu added at the side: "In the past tens of thousands of years, only the original Sword Ancestor has successfully broken through the ten formations and entered the forbidden area. But no one knows what he obtained inside. This forbidden area is only opened once in seven thousand years. If you miss this time, I'm afraid I will never be able to meet him again in my life, so young talents from all races in the five directions and five regions will come here. How about waiting for Ye Ling to go to Nanyuan and then you all go to Dongfang Hai Pavilion with us for the meeting?"
