It took a full month for Cheng Ling to fully recover, and the sword energy in his body returned to its peak state. Not only that, after the battle with Nangong Ba, his understanding of the Feitian Sword Control Technique has reached a new level. In the past, he only practiced it alone, and he became even more proficient in using it after actual combat.
Yun Jingwen's body has fully recovered and she can go out on her own on weekdays. However, according to her, the Dantian in her body is still tightly locked, preventing her from using any real energy. The two of them cleaned up for a while, then Cheng Ling picked her up again, checked the direction a little, and headed towards the outer palace of Famous Sword Academy.
I still remember that when I first arrived at the academy, I learned the Wood Phase Spirit Technique in the Enlightenment Pagoda in the outer mansion. Moreover, according to Jian Laodao, there are three stone pillars in the Enlightenment Tower, which are located in each branch. If Yun Jingwen wants to understand the complete technique, it is best to connect the three stone pillars together.
While thinking in my mind, I kept walking, and saw hundreds of thousands of mountains stretching endlessly, with countless minerals and herbs along the way. He collected along the way and gained a lot. Among the storage rings, herbal materials accounted for a large part, while the materials for refining the formation pillars and formation flags were much less.
The Famous Sword Academy was attacked by several major forces a few years ago, and the treasury and related secret realms must have been looted. If the two of them wanted to practice peacefully there, it would definitely not be possible without defense formations. He is also worried about whether the three stone pillars still exist. He hopes that the disciples of the big forces will look down on this inheritance and not destroy it.
After walking along the road for more than a month, we gradually got closer and closer to the Famous Sword Academy. He felt a little emotional that the Canglan Continent was so big that it took him so long just to travel. When he had some free time, he wanted to find a way to get a flying magic weapon. The flying magic weapon he grabbed on Canglang Island could no longer keep up with him. If you keep up your own pace of growth and enter the Tribulation, it is not as fast as flying by yourself.
Along the way, I chatted with Yun Jingwen, asking about things in the fairy world. Maybe in a few decades, I will go to the fairy world, and there is no harm in knowing it in advance. But they both tacitly avoided one topic, which was whether Yun Jingwen would leave immediately after she recovered.
The destination was getting closer and closer, and after continuing to walk southeast for a month, I finally saw a familiar scene. Cheng Ling spread his spiritual consciousness. There were not many monks around the academy. Many of them looked like southern monks in their attire. There was not a single disciple from the nine major forces.
After thinking for a moment, he suddenly came to his senses. The nine major forces only targeted a few of them. The Famous Sword Academy was destroyed, so there would be no monks left. The rest of the mountain gate was naturally occupied by the southern monks.
Many of those monks were disciples of the seven major forces at that time. He hid his figure and quietly dodged away. Soon he came to the mountain gate of the academy and entered in a flash. For these people, now is not the time to settle accounts, and there is no need to alert others.
Entering the academy, looking at the dilapidated buildings, a trace of anger arose in my heart. In the past, there were only a few scattered buildings left in the training ground where more than a million disciples used to practice. Most of them were razed to the ground, and the rest were in dilapidated condition, and they no longer looked like their former glory.
He sighed secretly in his heart, wondering if Jian Wuya and others would be in pain when they saw the scene in front of them. There is also Jian Yinghao. After so many years, there has been no news about him, and it is not known whether he is still alive.
However, with his cultivation and wisdom, Cheng Ling believed that he would not fall easily and would definitely be hiding somewhere and waiting.
He was familiar with the roads and soon arrived at the Tower of Enlightenment. Seeing the building in front of him,
He was secretly relieved. The outer periphery of the Enlightenment Tower was somewhat dilapidated, but the main body was still there. He also saw many monks entering it, presumably hoping to understand the techniques or martial arts inside.
The Enlightenment Tower of the Kendo Academy still exists, and the other two academies should not be damaged. However, there is still a headache in front of me. Although the people from the nine major forces are no longer there, there are still many monks from the southern forces entering.
Perhaps any of their forces are afraid of the nine major forces and dare not easily occupy it. They only open it as a public cultivation resource. But with so many monks, I can't kill them all. Once I do this, I believe that in less than a month, people from the nine major forces will come here to kill them.
Another point is that according to Yun Jingwen's request, if you want to understand the complete technique, you need to connect the stone pillars of the three courtyards together, otherwise it will have no effect at all. He secretly had a headache. After thinking for a long time, an idea flashed in his mind.
The outer gate of Famous Sword Academy is actually not easy to enter. Only the mountain-protecting formation was broken by nine major forces, allowing these monks to come and go freely. If the center of the original formation could be found and reset, all the monks in the academy would be trapped in it. By then, with my own cultivation, I can completely control them.
Thinking of this, he started searching around the academy. To find the nodes on the edge of the formation, move towards the center step by step. At his current speed, it only took him half an hour to complete a full circle around the academy, and he quickly found the center of the formation, which was actually under the academy's trading hall.
After finding a remote building, he began to refine the formation pillars and formation flags. After the lessons learned in the Taoist temple last time, this time he will upgrade the academy's formations as a whole, including defensive formations, trap formations, enigma formations, and concealment formations, all of which are the top nine-level formations. stand up.
In this way, even if the whereabouts are leaked, it will take a long time for the nine major forces to break the formation.
It took three days to refine hundreds of formation pillars before he stopped and leaned against the broken wall to take a nap.
Yun Jingwen saw that he was busy and did not dare to disturb him. After all the refining was completed, she asked: "Brother Cheng, what are you going to do?"
Cheng Ling said: "Don't worry, let's rest for a while. I will rearrange the formation at night, and the two stone pillars on the side of the Fa Daoyuan and the Martial Arts Yuan should also be connected together, so as to satisfy your understanding. "
"Thank you, Brother Cheng. If you weren't here, I don't know what I would do!"
"It doesn't matter. You and I have helped each other many times, so there's no need to be polite anymore. Anyway, I will definitely find a way to help you recover!"
Yun Jingwen's lips twitched and she hesitated to speak. In the end, she didn't say anything. She just sighed secretly in her heart. She didn't know if those three stone pillars were connected together. If she couldn't comprehend the birth-vitalization technique, she might just have to do it in this life. Become a mortal.
Thinking of this, I was surprised. I didn't feel much regret about becoming a mortal. Based on his immortal body, his lifespan is much longer than that of ordinary people. He can live for at least another two hundred years. If he can stay with Cheng Ling for more than two hundred years, it doesn't seem to be very difficult. There is even a kind of hope in my heart.
She couldn't help but be startled by her thoughts, and secretly watched Cheng Ling close her eyes to rest. His angular face was so determined and tired, and she was fascinated by it for a while.
day dive
The moon rises, taking away the most gorgeous sunset, and the stars in the sky begin to appear. Cheng Ling opened her eyes, with a smile on her lips, and said to Yun Jingwen: "Jingwen, don't wander around here, I'll be back soon!"
Yun Jingwen nodded silently, and Cheng Ling chuckled and disappeared.
A moment later, Yun Jingwen saw dull lights flashing in front of her. Under the cover of the night, if she hadn't been paying close attention, she wouldn't have been able to spot them. Later, the light gradually faded away until no trace could be seen.
She knew that Cheng Ling had set up formations around her. This time, several large formations are launched together, and the formation nodes that need to be arranged are intricate. The mountain gate where the Famous Sword Academy is located is a good place to establish a sect, and it may be restored to its former glory in the future.
He drove the formation pillars into the ground as carefully as possible to avoid being discovered by the disciples in the academy. It took a whole night until the sky in the distance began to brighten before all the formation nodes were set up.
The figure was suspended in mid-air, dozens of formation flags were sprinkled down, and the first trapped formation slowly rose up. This formation is called Hell Cage. As long as they are within the coverage of the formation, no monks can leave.
At this point, he no longer has to be timid and can launch without any scruples. With a flick of his right hand, dozens more formation flags spilled out, and the second defensive formation rose, flashing through a semicircular light shield, covering the entire outer door area.
The third formation, the Four Elephants Killing Immortal Killing Formation, he didn't have time to kill the monks in the academy one by one. This gate formation is distributed in the positions of four elephants. Once activated, the killing energy at the four elephants' positions will fill the entire formation, turning all the monks in the formation into powder. Of course, this also depends on the cultivation level of the monks. .
After the three-door formation was set up, he did not activate it immediately. Instead, he flew into the air and said to the monks in the academy: "All the monks must leave the Famous Sword Academy within an hour, otherwise they will die." Don’t blame me for not reminding you!”
These few words were full of sword essence and spread far and wide, and every monk could hear them clearly.
All the monks in the academy were startled and walked out of their respective retreats. When they looked up and saw Cheng Ling suspended in mid-air, they were all filled with anger.
"Who is he? He is not ashamed to speak loudly. Famous Sword Academy is not his residence alone!"
"That is, it is simply arrogant to imagine that one person can control the entire Famous Sword Academy!"
"Kill him and let him know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is!"
"Get out, this is our training place, there is no room for you to comment!"
"..."
The curses and accusations were heard one after another, and not a single monk listened and left.
Cheng Ling sighed in his heart, these monks were all obsessed with ghosts, and they still didn't know what to do with them. In this case, don’t blame yourself for being ruthless!
Before he could take action, several impatient monks rushed forward, using spells and sword energy to kill them.
A sneer appeared at the corner of Cheng Ling's mouth, and the last formation flag drew a strange arc and landed in the center of the formation.
Suddenly, on one side of the scene in the entire space, layers of gray-white thick fog rose, and a terrifying aura of killing spread. Immediately afterwards, pieces of snowflakes, rows of ice blades, and swords fell from the sky, shooting towards all the monks in the field!
