In a palace in the forbidden area behind Ming Jianfeng, Jiang Wen finished his training, straightened his clothes a little, opened the palace door and walked out.
Outside the main hall is a square of several hundred square meters. A dozen figures each occupy a corner, pondering and demonstrating their martial arts skills against the target in front of them. From time to time, the sound of whirring through the air can be heard.
"Junior brother Jiang Wen, you're out!"
Not far away, a beautiful figure walked over. It was Zou Rong, followed by a purple-robed young man named Ning Jiancheng. He was the only Ming Jianfeng disciple who passed the examination in last year's inner disciple selection competition.
Now he is learning swordsmanship with Zou Rong and other senior brothers and sisters.
"I've met Senior Sister Zou!" Jiang Wen bowed slightly.
Zou Rong's eyes are bright, and her temperament is even more ethereal and unpredictable. If you look carefully, you will find that her temperament is always changing, and there is no pattern.
"Junior brother, you have been in seclusion for a month this time, and you seem to have gained a lot!"
Looking around at Jiang Wen, Zou Rong's eyes suddenly became hot. After nearly a month of retreat, Jiang Wen's cultivation level was officially promoted to the middle stage of Xiantian, and it was also the peak of the middle stage of Xiantian. Such a speed
, can never be described as shocking, it is simply unbelievable.
"Compared with you, senior sister, you pale in comparison!" Jiang Wen smiled softly.
After refining the medicinal power of Poria Fruit, he spent another half a month to finally consolidate the true energy in his body. Now he can freely control the skyrocketing power in his body. However, his achievements are inferior to those of Zou Rong.
He said that he was a little behind. He hadn't seen it for a month, but Zou Rong had made another breakthrough in his cultivation and had been officially promoted to the realm of rebirth.
"My breakthrough is nothing, I will be surpassed by you sooner or later!" Zou Rong smiled sweetly.
She has watched Jiang Wen's growth process step by step, from the ignorant boy who was hiding alone on the cliff of the back mountain to practice swordsmanship a few months ago, to the talented disciple who is now renowned throughout the sect. Jiang Wen's
His growth is completely forward in leaps and bounds. In terms of strength, more than half of the inner disciples are now far behind him.
"Senior sister is right!"
Ning Jiancheng, who was standing aside, also said with deep approval: "Seeing your current achievements, Junior Brother Jiang, I, a senior brother, am extremely ashamed!"
If he had previously felt envious and slightly jealous of Jiang Wen being accepted as a true disciple by Meng Guxuan, then after seeing Jiang Wen's series of achievements, he truly saw the gap between the two sides and could not even connect at all.
The courage to be jealous is gone. Perhaps this is the greatest tragedy of being born in the same era as a genius!
"Senior Brother Ning, there is no need for you to belittle yourself!"
Jiang Wen didn't know much about Ning Jiancheng. He only met Meng Guxuan a few times when he was giving lectures. He rarely talked to him on weekdays. Now that the other party took the initiative to show his kindness, he immediately reciprocated the favor and said with a smile: "Your aura is highlighted."
, gathered together but never separated, obviously they have begun to integrate their momentum and are ready to condense their sword power, congratulations, congratulations!"
Sure enough, Jiang Wen's words touched on Ning Jiancheng's itch, and a look of pride appeared on his face.
"correct!"
After saying hello, Zou Rong remembered the business and said quickly: "I almost forgot something while talking. Half a month ago, the master sent me a letter. If I see you leaving the customs, I will inform you: go to Jian alone.
Chi, choose a new sword!"
"I can go to Jianchi now!" Jiang Wen's face was filled with surprise.
Jianchi is another forbidden place of Ming Jianfeng, and it is also the place where Meng Guxuan often uses for retreat and practice.
In the sword pool, there are tens of thousands of waste swords, broken swords, and broken swords collected. They are all the remnants of the elders of Mingjianfeng who collected from battlefields or ancient ruins when they were traveling.
There is a thought-provoking story behind it.
The elders of Mingjianfeng in the past generations have tried to repair these broken swords, and in the process of repairing the broken swords, they have realized the power and intention of the sword. Over time, many complete magical weapons have been accumulated in the sword pool. As long as the cultivation level reaches
To a certain extent, any inner disciple can rely on their own strength to enter the sword pool and choose a sword of their own.
"Going right now!"
Seeing the eager expression on Jiang Wen's face, Zou Rong smiled and said: "Although the sword pool is full of formation restrictions, these formation restrictions cannot stop you, and this is also a test for you by the master.
, used to test the results of your one-month retreat, don’t let him down!”
"Then I'm going!"
Jiang Wen jumped up, leaped up, and soon reached the depths of the back mountain.
The edge of the inscribed sword is eight hundred feet high, and the mountain stretches for more than ten miles. A nine-turn wind formation has been established in the forbidden area behind the mountain. The strong wind howls continuously all year round, so there is little vegetation in large areas of the mountain. At a glance, Jiang Wen is very
Soon, they found the location of the sword pond on a cliff a hundred feet high.
Different from the Bifeng Chi built in the valley, the Jian Chi is built on a cliff and transformed from a natural cave.
The entrance of the cave is more than ten feet high. On the stone walls on both sides, there are exquisite stone murals engraved. The characters in the paintings, whether men, women, old or young, all hold long swords, either static or moving, rising or lying down, dancing gracefully, or
Holding a sword and meditating, there are many
Facing the fierce wind, Jiang Wen's body was swaying in the air. It took him half an hour to climb to the entrance of the cave halfway up the mountain.
Buzz!
As if sensing someone approaching, the originally empty entrance to the cave suddenly sounded a buzzing sound, and soon thick formation restrictions protruded from the void.
"Master already knows I'm coming!"
Looking at the layers of restrictions in front of him, Jiang Wen knew that this must be a method used by Meng Guxuan in secret. The purpose was to test him and let him rely on his own strength to pass through the formation restrictions and enter the sword pool.
For a moment, Jiang Wen's eyes burst out with a sharp sword light, and the pure innate Qi circulated rapidly in his body, and then turned into sword lights, puffing up and down on the surface of his body, making his whole body feel numb.
It was as if he had transformed into an unsheathed sword, with a terrifying sword power blooming all over his body.
boom!
With one step forward, violent sword energy burst out from Jiang Wen's body. In an instant, the first formation in front of him was restrained and a huge gap was opened.
Then, his figure flashed, and his body directly passed through the restriction and entered the cave.
"Huh!"
At the same time, a cry of surprise came from the depths of the cave.
The smooth stone wall is covered with rusty daggers, densely packed like fish scales, spread throughout the cave. Meng Guxuan's figure is sitting cross-legged on a jade futon at the bottom of the cave, with a palm-sized water mirror.
, the void was suspended in front of him, and the picture displayed in the mirror was exactly the scene where Jiang Wen's sword tore through the formation restrictions.
"The three-foot sword glow is condensed and smooth. This clearly means that the fusion of sword power has reached the fourth level!"
The corners of Meng Guxuan's mouth were twitching slightly, and the excitement in his heart was even more difficult to express. What kind of background did the apprentice he accepted have such a monster with such talent and qualifications?
"No, no! It's more than that!"
"This sword light has two colors of green and white, complementing each other. It is clearly the fusion of the violent wind sword power and the Liuyun sword power, and they have both reached the fourth level of fusion. This...how is this possible.
..."
The sound of exclamation sounded again!
But just a moment later, the sound seemed to be cut off by something and stopped abruptly! Then, there was only a long silence!
