The next day, Lin Yun hit the road early.
I don't know what's going on with the weather in the mountains. The sun was shining brightly in the morning, but it soon became overcast. Lin Yun had to stop and find a cave to take shelter from the rain.
As soon as Lin Yun entered the cave, strong winds mixed with heavy raindrops hit him. After a while, the entire forest was in a blur, and it was impossible to tell which was which.
At this time, everyone stopped and looked for shelter from the rain. Even ordinary people knew not to be in the rain, let alone practitioners. It was not because they were afraid of getting sick, but because of some monsters lurking in the rain. This was Their ideal hunting ground, this is where the danger lies.
Lin Yun stood at the entrance of the cave, watching the pouring rain and the leaves blown off the trees by the strong wind, and then penetrated the trunk of a tree at extremely fast speeds.
Lin Yun was stunned for a moment.
"A small leaf usually doesn't have such power. Why does it have it now? Who gave it power? It was the wind. Then, where is the sword?"
"The sword, when placed there, has no power, but when people dance it, it becomes powerful, but it is too small. There should be more. Is it the human strength that exerts the power of the sword, or something else."
A sword unconsciously appeared in Lin Yun's hand and began to dance slowly.
"No, no, I fell into a misunderstanding. I always thought that only swordsmanship can make the sword exert its power. In fact, the sword itself is the power, just like the leaves, it has its own power, but it is released by the wind."
Gradually, Lin Yun fell into a strange state. The sword in Lin Yun's hand began to dance faster and faster, chopping, stabbing, slashing, and teasing. Basic sword skills danced in Lin Yun's hand one after another.
"Leaves, swords, wind, what exactly is this wind?"
Soon, Lin Yun's sword began to emit streaks of transparent sword energy. The sword energy spread horizontally and twisted the flowers and plants at the entrance of the cave into pieces, and scratches appeared on the rocks.
"Yes, the wind is the sword, the sword is the wind, and the sword needs to be borrowed from itself. The sword is the one who is sharp. This is the best explanation for the sword."
At this time, sword energy also appeared around Lin Yun. At this moment, he was a sword, a sword that could cut the sky and split the earth. In Lin Yun's sea of consciousness, an illusory sword slowly began to solidify.
After a while, the rain stopped, the clouds opened, the sun shone on the earth again, and many people began to hit the road again.
Lin Yun also slowly exited that state.
"What happened to me just now? What happened to this cave? Why is it so broken?"
Lin Yun looked at the deep sword marks on the rock wall and the gravel scattered on the ground.
"Could it be me? Did I just have an epiphany!"
This word suddenly appeared in Lin Yun's mind. Enlightenment is a state that all cultivators dream of. In this state, the cultivator's mind is empty, and great progress will be made in both cultivation and skills. But this state can be unattainable. Sometimes we pursue it hard but cannot find it. Sometimes we enter enlightenment after an ordinary practice.
"Is this really an epiphany!"
Lin Yun immediately took out his sword and danced the sword moves. Sure enough, each move was so natural, harmonious, and without any sense of pause. The first four moves of "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique" were also much more powerful and faster. Much faster.
“Is this what epiphany brings me?”
Lin Yun was quite happy. Then, Lin Yun crossed his legs and prepared to restore his condition.
Lin Yun's consciousness sank into the sea of consciousness, and he suddenly found a sword appearing next to the stone plate on the avenue, an illusory sword.
"Sword Intent! No, that's not right. Sword Intent is condensed but not dispersed. This one is a bit scattered but not condensed. It should be the sword's strength!"
As a sword user, Lin Yun also knows sword intention. Sword intention is a state pursued by swordsmen. It is a state where man and sword become one. It can be said that with sword intention, the power of your sword will be perfect. doubled increase. Of course, in addition to sword intent, there are also sword intent, spear intent, etc., but no matter which kind, they all have one thing in common. It is difficult to understand the meaning. Therefore, many people carry weapons with them in the hope of gaining insights. But even so, there are only a dozen people in the entire Eastern Continent who have realized the meaning.
Lin Yun had read the records, and sword intention was divided into several stages: sword strength, sword intention, sword heart, and sword domain. Each stage is divided into nine levels. There seems to be a realm above the Sword Domain, but there is no record in that book. Even the record of the Sword Heart Sword Domain is very vague. It is estimated that the author has never seen it, so Lin Yun doesn't know.
Lin Yun's sword power in the sea of consciousness now belongs to the second level, which is considered just getting started, but it is enough to make swordsmen all over the world envious and jealous.
"It's a pity. If the enlightenment time is longer, maybe I can break through the third level!"
Lin Yun felt a little regretful, but soon he calmed down and understood the power of the sword. He should be satisfied, so why should he be demanding?
What Lin Yun has to do now is to advance his sword strength as soon as possible, but there is no good way. According to the records, there seems to be no other way except to learn more and fight more.
Just like other sword cultivators, Lin Yun began to put the sword on himself. When he was ready, Lin Yun continued to set off.
After two days of running around, Lin Yun finally arrived at the location of Tianyuan Guo. Although he was mentally prepared, Lin Yun was still surprised by the huge crowds of people here.
There are more than five or six thousand people, crowded here in a noisy manner. No wonder I haven’t seen many people since I entered the mountain for so long. Well, they are all here, and there are still people coming in a steady stream. I am afraid the number will increase. , in the place closest to the front, there are these dozen tents, which are the resting places for the royal family of the sect.
Everyone is surrounding a huge lake. In the center of the lake is a small island. There is only one lush tree on the island. Under the cover of branches and leaves, thirty green fruits are looming inside.
"Is that the Tianyuan Fruit?"
Looking at those green fruits, Lin Yun thought to himself.
Lin Yun looked into the lake. There were still a few huge blood flowers that had not spread out, implying that the lake was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
"It seems that this lake is not simple!"
Lin Yun did not make too many observations. Instead, he found a place, crossed his legs, restored his condition, and ensured that he was in the best condition to prepare for the competition for Tianyuan Fruit.
Suddenly, Lin Yun felt some disturbance in the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
Lin Yun discovered that a large amount of spiritual energy began to flow towards the Tianyuan tree, and the countdown to the maturity of the Tianyuan fruit had begun.
Many people also stood up, took out their weapons, and were on guard against each other.
Lin Yun looked at the tent in front of him. He wanted to see what these members of the royal family were going to do. There was no way they would give up.
