Today, Li Lingyun felt bored, so he strolled around the market of Tianyun College.
This market is located to the west of Tianyun College. A winding stone road connects various stalls. The stalls are filled with all kinds of items, including martial arts secrets, elixirs, weapons, materials, etc., etc.
Li Lingyun walked leisurely, his eyes wandering around. Suddenly, he saw an ancient book with a yellow light placed on a stall, with the four characters "Tianyun Sword Art" written on the cover.
He immediately became interested and walked forward to pick up the swordsmanship secret book and read through it. The swordsmanship was quite profound, which made Li Lingyun feel happy. He was about to ask about the price when he found an even more ancient swordsmanship secret book next to him.
The stall owner was an old man. Seeing that Li Lingyun was very interested in these two swordsmanship secret books, he took the initiative to talk to him: "Young man, do you want to learn this swordsmanship?" Li Lingyun nodded and said: "These two swordsmanship secret books I am interested in both these sword techniques. I wonder if I can tell you their origins?" The old man smiled slightly and said: "My two sword techniques are both family heirlooms. This Tianyun Sword Technique is the product of my ancestor and Tianyun. It was exchanged with an elder of the academy, and this ancient sword law was accidentally obtained by my great-grandfather in the mountains." After hearing this, Li Lingyun's heart moved, and he chatted with the old man about the past of Tianyun Academy. While chatting happily, he suddenly found a yellowed note embedded in this ancient sword technique, which read: "If you are destined to truly understand this sword technique, please go to the secret realm of Tianyun Mountain to find it."
Li Lingyun was startled and suddenly became very interested in this ancient sword technique. He asked the old man about the specific location of Tianyun Mountain's secret realm, and the old man told him that the secret realm was located deep in Tianyun Mountain, and only the elders of the academy and some outstanding students knew the specific entrance. Li Lingyun thanked the old man.
Afterwards, Li Lingyun went to other stalls. He found that there was a dazzling array of items in this market, and many of them were rare items that were difficult to buy on the market. He wandered around for a while and suddenly saw a bronze long sword placed on a stall. The sword exuded a mysterious aura. Li Lingyun was immediately attracted, and stepped forward to pick up the sword and observe it carefully.
This sword seemed to be different. There was a blue gem inlaid on the hilt, and some vague inscriptions were engraved on the blade. Li Lingyun felt a strong attraction, as if this sword had some kind of indissoluble bond with him. With a thought in his mind, he asked the stall owner about the origin of the sword.
The stall owner was a middle-aged man. Seeing that Li Lingyun was interested in this sword, he introduced him: "This sword is called 'Breaking Dawn', and it is an inheritance from my family. Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a strong swordsman in Tianyun. Shanzhong obtained a mysterious spar. He used his sword intention and the spar to sense each other, and finally created this unparalleled sword. And this sword can only exert its greatest power in the hands of its true owner. "Li Lingyun was very excited when he heard it. He knew that this sword was definitely extraordinary. He tentatively asked: "I wonder if I can try out this sword?" The stall owner smiled: "Of course, as long as you can afford it." Li Lingyun nodded and held his hand on the hilt of the sword. , a powerful force surged into his body instantly, as if it resonated with his soul. He felt as if he was integrated with the sword. The sword moved at will and his thoughts followed the sword's movements. He was overjoyed, knowing that he had obtained a rare treasure. He asked the stall owner about the price, and the stall owner told him that the sword was a family heirloom and could not be sold easily, but if Li Lingyun was sincere, he could negotiate. Li Lingyun understood that the stall owner was testing him, so he took out his storage bag without hesitation and poured out all the gold coins inside.
When the stall owner saw this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "Young man, what a courage! I will sell you this sword. However, I want to remind you that although this sword is powerful, it is not invincible. .In the inheritance of the sword, there is a famous saying: 'The sword is with the person, but the person forgets the sword and dies.' I hope you can understand the meaning."
Li Lingyun understood deeply. He knew that this sword was not only a weapon, but also a kind of inheritance. He thanked the stall owner and left.
Li Lingyun came to another stall and found that the owner of the stall was a young man who looked about twenty years old. His stall was not as fancy and inviting as other stalls, with just a few items randomly placed. Among them was a piece of dragon scale, emitting a faint golden light, which attracted Li Lingyun's attention.
He got closer and looked carefully, and saw that the scale was about five inches long and two inches wide. It showed a mysterious pattern on the surface, as if it contained endless power. He could feel a majestic aura emanating from the scales, which made him stand in awe.
He turned to look at the young man and asked, "Where did this scale come from?" The young man raised his head, glanced at Li Lingyun, and said lightly, "This is a real dragon scale."
Li Lingyun carefully observed the scales and found that there was a trace of wind and thunder power on the scales. The purple lightning flashes from the scales from time to time, as if telling the glory of the past. He could feel a powerful pressure, as if echoing the huge body of the dragon. His heart moved and he asked the young man about the origin of this scale. The young man told him that this scale was taken from a giant dragon by a senior expert, and this giant dragon once wreaked havoc on the world in ancient times. Li Lingyun was fascinated by what he heard. He knew that this scale was absolutely extraordinary. He asked the young man about the price, and the young man told him that this was an item left by the master and could not be sold easily, but if Li Lingyun was sincere, it could be discussed. Li Lingyun understood that this young man was testing him. He took out his storage bag without hesitation and poured out all the gold coins inside. When the young man saw this, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then he smiled and said: "What a courage! I sold this scale to you. I just kept it for you, and now it has returned to its original owner." Li Lingyun understood, he knew this scale Not just an object, but a legacy. He thanked the young man and left.
Li Lingyun returned to Yunmen, filled with joy. He hurried back to his room, closed the door, took a deep breath, and began to try to use his spiritual energy to sense the mysterious dragon scale.
He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and felt the presence of the scales with his heart. He felt a powerful force emanating from his scales, resonating with his aura. The scales seemed to have turned into an endless energy source, continuously delivering powerful power into his body.
Li Lingyun felt as if his body was wrapped in a warm current. It was a sense of comfort that he had never experienced before. He seemed to be integrated with the scales, without any barriers between them. He could clearly feel the power of wind and thunder contained in the scales, which was a violent and mysterious force.
Li Lingyun knew in his heart that this dragon scale was extremely extraordinary and must contain many secrets. He decided to dig deeper into the source of this power, so he began to guide this power to circulate in his body according to the mental method taught by his master.
Suddenly, a strong force of wind and thunder burst out from the scales and shot straight into the sky. The entire Yunmen was shaken, and Li Lingyun felt as if he was being swept away by endless energy, and his body instantly broke through to a new realm.
At this moment, Li Lingyun seemed to have endless power in his body, and his internal organs were greatly improved. He felt as if he was in the wind and thunder, integrating with the nature of heaven and earth. He opened his eyes, determination shining in them. He knew that this dragon scale not only improved his strength, but also allowed him to realize the true meaning of the power of wind and thunder.
