After reaching an agreement with his ancestor Zhang Bailiu, Lin Bai went straight back to the courtyard to practice the flying sword.
When the imperial capital undergoes changes, the Gate of Heaven and Earth reacts. This is a reasonable thing.
With such a big commotion, almost all the five families and seven sects knew that something terrible must have happened in the imperial capital.
Before, Tianshui Sect vigorously supported His Highness King Chen to ascend the throne. Now His Highness King Chen has successfully become the crown prince. Although he has not yet ascended the throne, it is almost the same.
As the Tianshui Sect who was the first to stand up to support His Royal Highness King Chen, this is a good time to reap rewards.
During this period of time, the ancestor Zhang Bailiu was rushing to Prince Chen's Mansion day and night, with the purpose of escaping back to the treasured land that had been taken away by the five families and seven sects.
After the third prince withdrew from the throne, the Zhao family, Li family, Tiandimen, Wentian Sect and other sects in the third prince's camp all fell into disgrace.
They also know that the situation is over.
Every time a new heir apparent is appointed, he will immediately start to deal with the other five families and seven sects. This is already an unwritten rule for the Chu royal family to seize the heir.
The reason is also very simple. The forces that can cause crisis to the royal family within the territory of Chu are nothing more than the self-respecting military kings and the five families and seven sects in Chu.
Although the Five Families and Seven Sects are monastic sects, the disciples they have trained can be found all over the Chu Kingdom.
There are countless families and forces that are vassalized under the Five Families and Seven Sects!
Although the Five Families and Seven Sects do not openly intend to rebel, as long as they have this intention, countless forces will respond when they raise their arms.
As for the royal family, they are not worried about the rebellion of the five families and seven sects, but what worries them most is... they can rebel anytime and anywhere!
This is like the difference between a reckless man and a poisonous snake.
If a reckless man rebels, you only need to send troops to exterminate him; but a hidden poisonous snake will come out and bite you at any time.
Therefore, every time the royal family of the Chu State finishes the succession, the first thing they do after the crown prince is established is to clean up the five families and seven sects!
The third prince was defeated, and the Li family, the Zhao family, the Wentian Sect, and the Tiandi Sect that belonged to the third prince's camp would naturally be liquidated.
Zhang Bailiu, the ancestor of the Tianshui Sect, was rushing to Prince Chen's Mansion during this period, hoping to use the power of Prince Chen's Mansion to suppress the Heaven and Earth Sect.
His Highness King Chen saw the intention of his ancestor Zhang Bailiu, but he did not stop him. He agreed to all requests from the Tianshui Sect.
In just one or two months, the Tianshui Sect relied on the power of the royal family to recover many treasured lands that were once occupied by the Tiandi Sect.
If this trend continues, it should only be a matter of time before the Tianshui Sect takes back all the treasures that belong to them.
However, there was a sudden change in the imperial capital, and Tiandimen seemed to sense that a storm was about to arise within the territory of Chu State, so it slowed down the idea of returning the treasured land.
The ancestor Zhang Bailiu was worried about this, but Lin Bai wanted to tell the ancestor not to worry too much.
In such a situation in the imperial capital, if Tiandimen insists on seeking death and dares to go against the royal family, the royal family will never tolerate him alive in the world.
It's very simple. Today's imperial capital is in turmoil, and all the major sects and families are eyeing the royal family with eager eyes.
The royal family needs an opportunity to scare the monkeys. I hope the Heaven and Earth Gate will not be ignorant of good and evil, otherwise they will hit the Chu State's butcher's knife!
The ancestor Zhang Bailiu obviously understood the meaning of Lin Bai's words. During this period, he continued to rush around the Chen Palace to explain the stakes.
Return to the courtyard.
Lin Bai immediately announced his retreat and refused any visitors.
He also had a premonition that the imperial capital would undergo great changes, and now he needed to upgrade his various methods as soon as possible to ensure that he could survive the storm.
Although Mr. Kirigawa refined four flying swords for Lin Bai, the materials used in them were all in compliance with the regulations, but the last step was missing!
"Soul!"
Lin Bai needed to split his soul and inject it into the flying sword, so that the flying sword could complete the last step of the sacrifice and become an arm wielder.
According to the method taught to him by Ling Tianzi, Lin Bai sat cross-legged in the room with four flying swords suspended in front of him.
He slowly closed his eyes, his expression showing pain, and his brows furrowed deeply.
Not long after, a wisp of black smoke floated out from between his eyebrows, slowly gathered into a human shape, and poured into a flying sword.
When this wisp of smoke was drawn out of his body, Lin Bai's face instantly turned pale and he was sweating profusely, as if he had lost half his life.
As Lin Bai's soul was injected into the flying sword, the flying sword buzzed, as if it had life in an instant, and kept flying around Lin Bai, emitting a crisp sword sound.
"You still can't rush things, you have to take your time."
After Lin Bai finished refining one flying sword, he did not immediately split his soul to complete the refining of the second flying sword.
Instead, he stopped and recuperated for a few days.
Even if Lin Bai had the supreme form and the Heaven-Swallowing Dao Fruit to protect his body, it was difficult to resist the continuous splitting of souls in a short period of time.
After a few days of rest, Lin Bai's vitality recovered a little, and then he began to split his soul and complete the sacrifice of the second flying sword.
So complicated.
It was not until a month later that Lin Bai finally completed the sacrifice of the four flying swords.
Lin Bai, who was sitting cross-legged in the secret room, looked slightly pale, with cold sweat still flowing down his face.
He silently thought to himself, and the four flying swords lying flat in front of him immediately flew up and flew up and down around him.
As the Dragon Eye Flying Sword flew out of the body, each of the five flying swords bloomed with five different lights.
The golden light on the Dragon Eye Flying Sword is dazzling, exuding the dazzling power of heaven.
The flames on the Red Immortal Flying Sword are burning, just like divine fire coming to the world.
The green bamboo flying sword flashes green, exuding continuous vitality.
The black ice flying sword is cold and bone-chilling, as if it is the ice from the Nine Nether Hell.
The aura on the mountain flying sword is thick, as if the sword is condensed from a mountain range.
Five flying swords surrounded Lin Bai, and the terrifying sword power roared endlessly and spread out to the surroundings.
The sharp sword light split the surrounding space inch by inch, revealing the dark void behind.
"The Five Elements Sword Formation of Rebellion!"
Lin Bai had just activated the sword formation, and in an instant, the secret room showed signs of collapse.
The power of the sword spread out, and the entire array of Tianshui Sect's palace was shaking violently.
The ground shook violently, as if a peerless demon was about to burst out of the ground.
Ancestors Zhang Bailiu and Pan Qing, sect leader Chu Xi, and core disciples of the Tianshui Sect Bai Yifei and Zhou Xinjun arrived in a flash, and Chu Xi was outside the house where Lin Bai was retreating!
Everyone lined up outside the house and looked into the house with cold eyes.
"This noise indeed came from the Holy Son's Residence."
"The power of the sword spreads out uncontrollably. Could it be that something went wrong in the Holy Son's practice?"
The faces of ancestors Zhang Bailiu and Pan Qing were extremely solemn. He knew very well... If a warrior of Lin Bai's level went wrong in his training, it would be devastating.
"I don't think there is something wrong with my practice, it's more like I'm practicing some kind of magical way!"
Bai Yifei felt that although the sword power was spreading outward, there were no signs of harming innocent people, and it didn't look like he was possessed.
