Volume 1: A Sword from Lingchen Chapter 71: It’s Okay to Go Alone
Enter Taixu in the early morning, and the first sun shines on the high forest.
Ye Ling opened his eyes and realized that he was in Taixu Garden, surrounded by all kinds of elixirs and herbs. The fragrance was dense and soothing and refreshing.
He endured the pain all over his body, slowly sat up, and used the spiritual power in his body to heal his injuries.
Before he fell into coma, he clearly remembered that his practice was so eager for quick success that his qi and blood went retrograde and he went crazy. He had no way of knowing what happened after that.
Now his body was full of pain and needed treatment as soon as possible. So Ye Ling took out a healing elixir from the jade finger and swallowed it.
The pill melts instantly in the mouth, and the medicinal power flows into the meridians and travels throughout the body to exert its effects.
After a long time, Ye Ling was able to get up and walk outside the garden. However, he saw that the ground was in a mess, three wooden houses were destroyed, and broken wood was scattered everywhere.
Ye Ling knew that these were all his actions, but he didn't know how to calm himself down and avoid violent death.
"The sage said: 'Haste makes waste, and small gains make great things difficult to achieve.' It is indeed true. I am angry and eager, and I have violated a taboo in spiritual practice!"
Ye Ling understood his thoughts and sat down cross-legged again. He was not in a hurry to pass the test again, but secretly consolidated his realm and laid a solid foundation.
As soon as Ye Ling sat down, it was a day and night, and the body was circulating around the sky. According to the exercises taught by the man in white, he adjusted his breath and nourished his strength, strengthening his foundation and cultivating his vitality.
After waking up, Ye Ling reached out and made a move, and the green rock wooden sword flew into the palm of his hand, covered with sharp energy.
The wooden sword had been warmed by Ye Ling for several months, and it had begun to connect with his mind. The edge of the sword penetrated into the sword body, giving birth to the sword's power.
Ye Ling waved his sword and used the first move of the Heaven-Destroying Sword Technique. There was nothing in all directions! The sharp energy swept across all directions and there was nothing in sight.
This is only the first move, and it is only the starting move. If the sharp edge is drawn out of the sheath, it is already contempt for the common people, and it will go nowhere!
Ye Ling broke through the thirty-six square Dao Apertures and greatly increased his strength. With his own physical strength, he was able to completely evolve the first form of the Heaven-Destroying Sword Technique.
It's just that Ye Ling can't follow his will. Once the sword moves are released, the fighting power is hard to estimate. But it seems to instantly drain the spiritual power from Ye Ling's body. If he hadn't used Gang Qi to refine his body and become physically strong, his meridians would have burst at this moment.
"My cultivation is still shallow at the moment, and I cannot use the power of this sword style. I must not use it unless it is absolutely necessary."
Ye Ling rested for a long time before heading down the mountain to look for wood and rebuild the house.
Taixu Garden was full of unparalleled treasures. If he built a residence there, it would be a waste of natural resources, so he had no choice but to go to the foot of Taixu Peak to look for some ordinary trees.
Having said that, the Immortal Sect is full of spiritual energy and the Taoism is gathered. Even those ordinary plants and trees, which have received the essence of the sun and the moon and have lived for thousands of years, are quite spiritual.
Ye Ling was cutting trees at the foot of the mountain, and he could actually feel the fear in these trees.
God has the virtue of good life, and mountains, rocks, grass and trees all have spirituality and should not be taken or destroyed casually.
Therefore, Ye Ling only cut off the side branches of these pine and willow trees without touching their main veins. It was considered that no life was harmed.
Just when Ye Ling finished cutting down the trees and was about to get up and return, a graceful figure floated over in the distant sky.
It was Lan Gongyue, the Fairy of Qingyu Peak, who came here. Her hair was tied up with clouds on her temples, her face was like a peach, and she was wearing a fairy skirt of colored glaze, which covered her graceful figure. Her pair of jade feet were barely covered with hair, half floating in the air, untainted by the worldly world.
Coming closer, he opened his red lips lightly and said without any emotion: "Ye Ling, I already know about your situation at Taixu Peak. I can help you rescue your two junior brothers."
Ye Ling's face didn't change: "What are the conditions?"
"I want to take some of the immortal treasures in Taixu Garden to make elixirs," Lan Gongyue threw out a list with the names of the elixirs on it: "These things, in exchange for two lives, are not considered a loss."
Ye Ling didn't even look at it. He raised the corner of his mouth and said, "Lan Fairy took advantage of the situation and robbed her. She is quite familiar with the situation."
"You and I are both from the same sect, I just don't want to kill each other," Lan Gongyue said: "After all, with your level of cultivation, you are definitely no match for Huo Yun. Not only can you not save people with the power of one person, but
It’s going to cost you your own life.”
"Don't want to kill each other?" Ye Ling's eyes were filled with coldness: "If you don't want to, then why did you ask me for this condition? You and Huoyun are just the same as each other. It's just that Huoyun is upright and aboveboard, but he can't compare to you who are so sanctimonious.
!”
"Ye Ling, how dare you humiliate me!"
Lan Gongyue was furious and her delicate body was trembling slightly. She was a girl with extraordinary talents and good looks, and she had long been in the habit of being admired by the stars. How could anyone accuse her like this?
With a thought in Ye Ling's mind, the list was cut into pieces and scattered in the wind, making Lan Gongyue look evil and glare.
Then Ye Ling carried the wood up the mountain and said: "There is no need for you to meddle in Taixu's affairs, let alone to take advantage of it!"
Seeing Ye Ling disappear on the mountain road, Lan Gongyue laughed angrily: "You brought this on yourself!" After saying that, she turned and left.
…
Ye Ling returned to the mountain and spent two days building three more wooden houses, which were almost the same as before.
Ye Ling sat on the stone bench with the green rock wooden sword in front of him. Ye Ling said to himself: "I wonder if the sword in my hand can make me express my feelings?"
The green rock wooden sword trembled slightly, seeming to respond.
Ye Ling smiled, took a jar of Zuiyun Brew, and drank by himself: "In this long night under the moon, there is no one to drink with me. Is this the journey to the great road?"
Ye Ling drank heavily against the moon, not knowing whether to be drunk or sober.
…
One month later, it was time for the appointment with Huo Yun. A disciple from Red Fire Peak had already visited him and sent a letter from Huo Yun, telling him the location.
Ye Ling hung a wine gourd on his waist, carried his sword on his back and went down the mountain, heading outside the sect.
Among the clouds, veteran Taoist Wang Chunyang and sect leader Gu Ningyuan stood side by side, looking at Ye Ling's figure.
Wang Chunyang said: "Although this boy has talent, he is too sharp and doesn't know how to restrain himself. I'm afraid this will break his path!"
Gu Ningyuan smiled and said: "The secrets of heaven are unpredictable and fortune is hard to grasp. Even if it is you and me, how can we predict the world's events?"
"What does this mean, Master?"
"The power of God is unpredictable and should not be overstated. But there is something extraordinary about this young man Ye. Have you ever seen it?"
"He has such a sharp edge when he first entered the Tao, which coincides with the way of swordsmanship. Could it be him..." Wang Chunyang guessed something, but did not say it clearly.
Gu Ningyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I don't know whether this son is a blessing or a curse for me, Wentian Sect, when he was born!"
…
Thousands of miles away from the Wentian Sect, the clouds were thick and the cold wind was howling, as if there would be a downpour at any moment to wash away the dust.
At the foot of the hill, Ye Ling stood tall and tall, looking as usual. His sapphire-colored Taoist robe danced in the wind, making hunting sounds.
Not long after, on the top of the mountain, two Red Fire Peak disciples pushed Wu Qing and Bai Wuyu out of the top of the mountain to meet Ye Ling.
"Second brother!" Wu Qing was so excited when she saw Ye Ling that she shouted loudly: "You are finally here to save us!"
Wu Qing knew that the second brother would definitely not ignore his safety. The two finally met again after three months.
When Bai Wuyu saw Ye Ling, he was not happy, but instead fell into deep melancholy. Ye Ling came alone, how could he be a match for the Red Fire Peak disciples? He just threw himself into a trap and was buried with the two of them.
At this moment, Huo Yuan, dressed in a red Taoist robe, stepped out of the air. His whole body was filled with fire energy and covered with fairy clouds, making him look otherworldly.
With a smile on his face, Huo Yuan said to Ye Ling, "How about it? Have you brought everything I want?"
Ye Ling looked at Huo Yuan and said calmly: "If you defeat me, everything will be yours!"
"Hahaha," Huo Yun looked up to the sky and laughed: "You are really rampant. No wonder you dare to hurt my disciples of Chihuo Peak. Today I want you to know what it means to have order in the elders and younger ones. There is a heaven in the sky!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the power of Huo Yuan Dao rose up. He reached down with his hand, and a huge red fire palm print was suppressed towards Ye Ling.
Huo Yuan originally wanted to suppress Ye Ling, but since Ye Ling wanted to die, he was happy to do so.
Ye Ling's spiritual power was running, his footsteps moved, and his figure flickered away, easily dodging Huo Yun's attack.
Huo Yun spoke and sneered: "You are a timid little kid after all. He only knows how to hide. If you are so frightened, why not go back to Taixu Garden and never come out for the rest of your life!"
After saying that, Huo Yun's big hand struck again, and the red flame palm was more powerful than before. The fire burned the surrounding air, setting off waves of heat, turning the innocent vegetation nearby into ashes.
Ye Ling looked up at the sky, and the sharp energy around him was born, stirring the void. The sword's power rose up, penetrating the heaven and earth.
Ye Ling did not dodge, but was hit in the center by Huo Yun's palm print. For a moment, the earth shook, the vegetation was ruined, and the air wave swept across.
When the dust settled, they saw Ye Ling standing on the ground, unharmed and intact as before.
Huo Yuan raised his eyebrows and said with a playful smile: "I can't tell that you have made great progress in three months. It seems that you have been out of the sect and got some opportunities. But just based on your cultivation in the Huiling Realm, Dao Aperture
If you are dissatisfied, you dare to fight with me, but you still don’t know whether to live or die!”
Ye Ling heard this but did not answer. He reached out and took off the wine gourd from his waist, and took a sip of wine, looking relaxed.
Then, a sword roar pierced the sky, and the green rock wooden sword escaped from Ye Ling's back and flew into Ye Ling's hand, swirling with sharp energy.
Ye Ling looked at the fire cloud, opened his mouth slightly, and stirred up the wind and cloud: "My sword is sharp, please give it a try!"
