The Rain Sword Emperor's Trial

She took off the hat from her head, revealing an exquisite face. The girl didn't look old, at most fifteen or sixteen years old.

"I wonder what the Sword Emperor senior's test is?" Jiang Qingyue asked cautiously.

"Defeat me at the same cultivation level..." Yun Tianqing suddenly glanced outside the hall.

Then he continued, "You probably can't do it."

"I will suppress my cultivation to match yours. You just need to withstand ten of my moves."

"Ah!" Hearing that she had to defeat the Rain Sword Emperor at the same cultivation level, Jiang Qingyue was stunned.

Although she was a Reborn Person, she had lost her combat experience from her previous life upon returning. She only knew the names of the artistic conceptions and martial arts, but couldn't use them.

Was this the price of being reborn!

Actually, even if she had the experience, she was only a Xiaoxiao King level Dharma Form Realm in her previous life.

How could she possibly defeat the Rain Sword Emperor at the same cultivation level?

She even doubted if the person who received the Rain Sword Emperor's legacy in her previous life was that powerful.

No, the Rain Sword Emperor senior wasn't around back then...

Her heart sank halfway.

Only after hearing that she only needed to withstand ten moves from the Rain Sword Emperor did she relax, thinking there was still some hope... What a joke...

"I hope senior will go easy on me." She said, bracing herself. Jiang Qingyue still prepared to participate in the test.

"Don't worry. When I was at the Mid Inner Qi Realm, I had already mastered over a dozen Human-tier Sword Arts to perfection and touched upon Sword Intent. With some effort, you might still have a chance to withstand these ten moves," Yun Tianqing said with a smile to comfort her.

"..."

As expected of the Rain Sword Emperor. It would have been better if you hadn't said anything.

Yun Tianqing waved his hand, and instantly Jiang Qingyue was transported to a white space, a long sword automatically appearing in her hand.

Opposite her, there was also a youth. The youth held a sword and looked at her. Judging by his appearance, he looked very much like Yun Tianqing.

Was this the Rain Sword Emperor in his youthful days!

"Are you ready?"

The voice of the Rain Sword Emperor Yun Tianqing echoed in the space.

"We can begin, Sword Emperor senior." Jiang Qingyue took a deep breath, calmed her mind, gripped the long sword in her hand, and stood ready.

"Good!"

As the words fell, the youth opposite glanced expressionlessly at Jiang Qingyue. Sword light, like a torrential downpour, flashed with extreme speed and immense power.

One strike descended, as if a Sky-high Flood was pouring from the heavens, unstoppable.

With a single blow, Jiang Qingyue's long sword was sent flying, and a sword was placed before her eyes!

I lost...

Jiang Qingyue's mind went blank. Was the gap between her and these top-tier geniuses really this vast?

Then what was the point of her return? To be abused?

Could she change the future world? Could she control her own life?

She fell into a daze, beginning to doubt herself!

"Foolish child, wake up!" A loud shout echoed in her ears, pulling her out of that world.

"In Martial Heart, only by fearing no failure and daring to climb can one go further. Don't dwell on a small setback, otherwise, your martial path will end here..."

Yun Tianqing secretly wondered if he had been too harsh, crushing this young girl's Martial Heart.

Yet, he still spoke, offering guidance to the Little Girl.

"Senior, I understand."

Jiang Qingyue had momentarily fallen into a mental trap. After being awakened, she quickly felt a sense of dread.

Lacking top-tier combat experience and martial arts could be remedied later. If she were to truly fall into despair now, that would be the end.

If she couldn't firmly believe in her own heart and stick to her path, she might not even reach the Dharma Form Realm, and would be inferior even to her past self.

She seemed unchanged, yet she had undergone a transformation.

Yun Tianqing nodded inwardly. She was teachable!

He was about to fade away. Seeing the performance of those two children outside, he decided to bestow some benefits upon them!

"Senior, then I shall take my leave. I wish you find a suitable Successor soon!"

With no reason to stay any longer, Jiang Qingyue prepared to depart.

Although she wished to remain in the secret realm to practice, the Rain Sword Emperor, the master, was still here!

It wasn't like five years later when the secret realm would be ownerless, allowing her to practice martial arts within.

If only she could stay in the secret realm, perhaps she too could comprehend Sword Intent.

Alas! She was being a bit too greedy.

"If there's nothing urgent, you can stay a few days in this space. Inside the main hall, I've collected some sword techniques from my lifetime. How much you can comprehend depends on your fortune."

"Thank you, Senior Sword Emperor!" Jiang Qingyue said gratefully, ecstatic upon hearing this.

Just as she was about to leave, she heard footsteps.

How could anyone be entering this secret realm at this time?

Before she could wonder who it was, the person appeared at the entrance of the main hall.

Upon seeing the person's appearance clearly, Jiang Qingyue's face showed disbelief, and she looked at him with great surprise.

Chen Qinglin walked into the main hall and saw a Black Robe Girl looking at him with surprise.

Beside her was a Blue Figure Youth, also sizing him up.

"Senior, are you the owner of this space? I apologize for disturbing you." He first bowed to the man before offering a greeting to the girl.

The Black Robe Girl's attire clearly indicated she had entered from outside, just like himself.

The man in the blue robe, however, had a translucent form, suggesting he was the owner of this space.

"It's alright. Since you were able to come here, it is your destiny."

"Are you together?"

"Reporting to Senior, the woman outside in the hall is my Senior Sister. We were looking for a place to shelter from the rain and accidentally found Senior's residence. I don't know this woman."

"Quite a lucky little fellow," Yun Tianqing said with a smile.

Listening to their conversation, a storm raged within Jiang Qingyue's heart. Although this youth didn't recognize her, she recognized him!

Wasn't this the future Divine Wind Sword Emperor - Chen Qinglin!

I remember he never entered the Rain Curtain Secret Realm!

Wait, he was looking for shelter from the rain, so he found a place to hide. Could it be because of me? Did I opening the Rain Curtain Secret Realm cause the surrounding celestial phenomena to change, leading him to this Rain Curtain Secret Realm at this time?

My apologies, future Little Rain King - Jun Tianzhong.

Since the future Divine Wind Sword Emperor has arrived here, there's no chance for him, Jun Tianzhong.

Moreover, she also believed Chen Qinglin was more suitable to be the successor of the Rain Sword Emperor.

With the Rain Sword Emperor's inheritance, Chen Qinglin in this life will advance even faster.

Please forgive me, everyone!

Thinking this, her heart bloomed with joy. Because of her, a Divine Wind Sword Emperor would develop extraordinarily. She wondered if the other geniuses and prodigies in the future would thank her for bringing them a worthy opponent. Hahaha...

As he thought, a smile inadvertently appeared on his lips.

"Accept my trial, and you shall receive my legacy." Yun Tianqing didn't bother asking why Chen Qinglin was there. He waved his hand, bringing him into a white space, and a long sword materialized in his hand.

Facing this younger version of his senior, Chen Qinglin felt no fear.

He unleashed the Perfected Wind Riding Sword Art, his first move being Wind Dissipates Clouds.

The younger senior was caught off guard and nearly defeated in one move.

"Good lad, I underestimated you. I'll get serious now." As soon as he spoke, Chen Qinglin noticed the senior opposite him come alive, his eyes now the same as before.

He immediately became vigilant, but his swordplay didn't stop. He consecutively employed the Wind Riding Sword Art, Wind Chasing Sword Art, and Blood Shadow Sword Art. Yun Tianqing was secretly astonished.

Although the combat skills of the youth before him were still lacking, his mastery of the sword arts he had learned was peak. With his eyesight, he could naturally see that all the sword arts he had learned were perfected.

Both sides were eager to test each other, fighting faster and faster.

Ten moves, a hundred moves... the sword dao clashed, not yielding an inch.

Azure and blue sword qi crisscrossed the space. Chen Qinglin had never encountered such a formidable opponent, only feeling immense pressure.

Relying on sword arts alone, he was no match for this senior!

But the benefit was that his combat skills were also rapidly improving.

Sensing this, Chen Qinglin unleashed his full power. The Divine Wind Leg and Moon Treading Steps, the combination of footwork and swordplay, made his sword strikes a few points faster.

"Good lad!" After slumbering for so many years in this mystic realm, he never expected to encounter such a youth before its demise.

Heaven has not been unkind to me!

Heavy Rain Sword Technique, Flowing Water Sword Art, Flood Peak Sword Art, Light Rain Sword Art...

A torrential downpour, layers of flowing water, water flooding green mountains, a gentle drizzle...

He once again unleashed his sword arts to his heart's content, feeling utterly exhilarated.

Yun Tianqing was very satisfied in his heart, but his words were merciless.

"If this is all you've got, this battle will end."

With that, the power of his sword arts intensified. Several consecutive strikes sent Chen Qinglin flying.

Standing in place, Yun Tianqing looked at Chen Qinglin, who seemed unharmed, and said.

"It seems you still have a trump card, boy. Show it to me."

"Then I'll have to offend you, senior."

In past battles, Chen Qinglin had swept aside all enemies with his Perfected Wind Riding Sword Art, never revealing the intents he had comprehended.

But in this space, he knew this was a World-shaking Encounter, an opportunity not to be missed.

Yun Tianqing watched his robes stir as if by a wind that wasn't there!

His eyes brightened further.

Facing Chen Qinglin, who was now using the Wind Riding Sword Art, felt different.

This sword art had ascended to a brand new level!

Its power had increased severalfold, incredible!

This was the Wind Intent!

Even in their era, those who could comprehend intent in the Inner Qi Realm were among the most gifted.

He couldn't help but reveal his own Rain Intent, adding a similar level of enhancement to his swordplay, making the fight even more evenly matched.

After several hundred more exchanges, their dual swords parted. Chen Qinglin said, "Senior, this junior has three more self-created sword moves. I ask for your critique."

"Oh? Then show them to me. What are you holding back for?"

Ride the Wind Slash! The sword move seemed to originate from nowhere, unleashed with incredible speed!

Good, fast! This is a Wind Speed Sword Skill!

He parried it without haste, his internal evaluation rising.

Wind Vanishes! You could see him draw his sword, but you couldn't see where the sword art came from. This was a Life Extinguishing Move.

This was Wind's Change and Life Extinguishing!

Through Passage Wind! A seemingly ordinary fast sword move, this was Yun Tianqing's first impression.

He felt a slight disappointment, having expected a move similar to the first one.

But after their dual swords clashed, he felt this sword move had actually penetrated his defense and struck directly at him.

This time, Yun Tianqing was shocked! Penetration Intent?!

Was this a move that touched upon Intent Fusion?!!!
