No Problem! Come On!
"Brother-in-law, Mother said that if Qing Lian doesn't practice swordsmanship, she will get sick, then fall into a deep sleep, and never wake up again."
Hearing his sister-in-law's words, Jiang Lin's eyes widened slightly.
My mind was still processing what my sister-in-law had just said.
Can't wake up from sleep?
So this is...
Looking at the pretty girl in front of him, who was still staring at him with her big, bright eyes, her blinking eyes full of innocence.
"Qing Lian, may I take a look at your pulse?"
"Pulse?"
"Okay." Jiang Lin nodded. "Extend your right hand."
"Uh-huh..."
Lin Qinglian obediently extended her small, fair hand.
Jiang Lin placed her small hand on his knee, his fingers resting on her pulse.
The pulse is steady, the energy is balanced, and the body is full of vitality and boundless energy.
She's very healthy.
"Qing Lian, brother-in-law, please forgive my rudeness."
"Um?"
Jiang Lin gently pressed Qing Lian's little head against his forehead, closed his eyes, and a cold-colored Spiritual Power connected Qing Lian's Spiritual Apertures between Jiang Lin's brows.
Feeling her brother-in-law's slightly cool Spiritual Power enter her body, the girl hesitated for a moment, but quickly released her Spiritual Apertures.
Jiang Lin's icy Spiritual Power transformed into a small Flying Sword that roamed within Qing Lian's body.
From the Spiritual Apertures to the Longevity Bridge, Jiang Lin thoroughly examined Qing Lian's physical condition in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
The problem is, Jiang Lin didn't notice anything unusual.
"You need to practice swordsmanship constantly, absorbing sword energy and sword intent; you can't stop..."
Jiang Lin pondered for a moment.
Suddenly, as if struck by Sudden Enlightenment, Jiang Lin's eyes lit up.
Changing his approach, Jiang Lin began to investigate Qing Lian's bones and the Sword Sect!
When he opened his eyes again, Jiang Lin slowly said, not wanting his guess to be true. "Qing Lian, can I take a look at these swords behind you?"
"Yes, that's fine."
Qing Lian drew the ancient sword from behind her with a series of "heave-ho" sounds.
"Brother-in-law, it might be a bit heavy."
"It's alright, your brother-in-law is Martial Warrior Fourth Realm! I can move a thousand... Holy crap!!!"
Before Jiang Lin could finish speaking, as Qing Lian placed one of the Bronze Longsword from behind her into Jiang Lin's hand, Jiang Lin's body suddenly lurched forward, nearly twisting his back...
"Brother-in-law... are you alright? Qing Lian, why don't you come and get it?"
"No! Your brother-in-law can do it! Your brother-in-law is really capable!"
A man can't say no!
Circulating his Martial Warrior True Qi, Jiang Lin picked up the bronze-colored longsword.
After a short while, Jiang Lin examined the Nine Longswords behind Qing Lian in turn.
These longswords are all ancient swords, and they all share a common effect: their Sword Luck and sword energy are astonishing, possessing the power to suppress and defeat!
And the source of this power is the innate sword bone within Qing Lian's body!
Sword bones are not uncommon.
It is divided into innate and acquired.
While innate talent doesn't necessarily equate to acquired skill, it is at least a hallmark of Sword Dao Genius.
Even the worst sword bone, with normal cultivation, can at least reach the late Golden Core Realm.
However, Qing Lian's innate sword bone is very different.
Among the ten "ailments" of cultivators that Grandma Hua had told her about, this ailment was called "excessive Qi"!
If Mo Li's previous illness was caused by damage to her Spiritual Apertures due to the offspring of a human and Tong Li Snake Race, resulting in an imbalance of Spiritual Power and its continuous flow, then...
So, the sword bone in Qing Lian's body was due to the combination of two extremely powerful Sword Cultivator. The descendants' Sword Dao Luck was too great, and the sword energy was too intense. When the descendants developed sword bones, the sword bones were too powerful, and the master could not suppress them, so the sword energy kept leaking out.
This leakage is uncontrollable, squeezing out Spiritual Power and physical energy. Ultimately, the "Flourishing Sword Bone" will damage the owner's spiritual Spiritual Apertures and Longevity Bridge, leading to death.
Madam Lin had Qing Lian practice swordsmanship, cultivate sword energy, and infuse sword intent every day, using nine ancient swords in order to suppress that "Flourishing Sword Bone"!
After suppression, it must be released appropriately; otherwise, if it is not balanced, the sword energy will only suffocate the body.
However, this is merely a delaying tactic.
Because the Flourishing Sword Bone grow together with its master.
As Qing Lian's cultivation level increases, her spirit and strength will become even stronger. Eventually, these nine ancient swords will be unable to suppress her, and absorbing more sword energy and Sword Luck will be of no use.
As for suppressing one's cultivation level or becoming an ordinary person... that's even more impossible; one would die even faster.
But is there no hope left?
Otherwise!
Back then, Jiang Lin worried that if he became a great sword immortal and then married another beautiful Sword Cultivator, what if their offspring also possessed Flourishing Sword Bone?
Grandma Hua rolled her eyes at Jiang Lin Jiang Lin, then gave him her answer:
"First of all, the possibility of forming such Flourishing Sword Bone is extremely rare! Even for Sword Cultivator at the Jade Purity Realm, the probability of combining it is no more than one in a thousand."
Above the Jade Purity Realm, the probability gradually decreases. The probability of two Immortal Realm Sword Cultivator combining their skills is one in ten thousand (it can only be said that Madam Lin Uncle Lin won the lottery). As for the Ascension Realm, it goes without saying that it is even less likely. As for the higher Lost Two Realms, it is almost non-existent.
Secondly, even if it is, there is a treatment: one can go to the forbidden area for Sword Cultivator, "Exquisite Pavilion," to reshape the sword bone!
Exquisite Pavilion is located in the Demon Race World (the exact location is uncertain).
The creation of the sword bone also requires the help of the Heavenly Eyes of the Twelve Heavenly Eye Butterfly.
Otherwise, a small mistake could lead to a huge error; not only would the sword's structure fail to develop properly, but it might also cost the opponent their life.
"Wait..."
Jiang Lin's eyes suddenly filled with hope, and his previous worries vanished.
"The Twelve Heavenly Eye Butterfly! Isn't Wu Su Su one? As for the Exquisite Pavilion, what if we could find it?"
Jiang Lin stroked his chin, feeling it was time to tell Madam Lin that he had "kidnapped" his sister-in-law—no, he should say, taken her to the Demon Race World for treatment!
"Brother-in-law? What's wrong?"
Lin Qinglian watched her brother-in-law stroking his chin, lost in thought, and asked curiously.
"Nothing."
Jiang Lin gently patted his sister-in-law's head and said tenderly.
"Qing Lian, let's practice our swordsmanship."
"Okay, sure."
Half an incense stick later, Jiang Lin led Qing Lian to the open space behind the mountain.
"Qing Lian, swing your sword with all your might! Don't hold back! Use all your strength!"
A hundred meters away from Qing Lian, Jiang Lin opened his arms and shouted!
Jiang Lin decided to first Qing Lian's body really was!
"Hey? Brother-in-law, are you sure it's okay?"
"No problem! Come on! If she's my sister-in-law, then come and chop me up! I'm a Sword Dao Genius too!"
"Brother-in-law, Qing Lian is leaving."
"Bring it on!"
A hundred meters away, Qing Lian hesitated for a moment, put the longsword she had initially chosen back on her back, and then chose a Mystic Iron Heavy Sword instead!
"Brother-in-law, Qing Lian really went!"
"Come!"
"Boom!"
Before Jiang Lin could finish speaking, the girl swung her sword!
On this day, in broad daylight, a shooting star streaked across the sky above the Sword Sect and crashed straight into the cliff...
