Flowing Light Sword

In the end, Chen Mobai and Meng Huang'er arrived at the Dao Academy for rehearsal a little late.

However, both of them were in excellent condition, and as the first and last participants in the graduation ceremony, they completed everything in one take.

After rehearsal, the two invited Bian Yiqing out for a meal.

For Meng Huang'er, Bian Yiqing was her mentor.

For Chen Mobai, Bian Yiqing was also the one who guided him into the Dao.

It was after listening to his opera that Chen Mobai grasped the key to mastering Spiritual Sense.

Moreover, it was only Bian Yiqing reported to his superiors during the entrance examination in Vermilion Cloud City that he was finally allowed to enroll.

Bian Yiqing did not refuse and readily agreed.

"The Immortal Sect will belong to you from now on. I hope that in my lifetime, I can see you or Yuan'er play the Startling Spirit Melody."

The Spirit Wine that Chen Mobai brought was quite strong. After drinking three rounds, Bian Yiqing was also slightly tipsy and said some things from his heart.

"Teacher, don't worry, I will work hard towards this goal."

People from the Immortal Sect, no matter what, all have lofty goals from a young age. Even Meng Huang'er has an ambition to play a Startling Spirit Melody.

"Then I'll try my best to be the one who listens to your Startling Spirit Melody performance."

Chen Mobai smiled and said something that left Bian Yiqing somewhat at a loss for words.

On the Immortal Sect's side, those waiting for the Startling Spirit Melody were all Nascent Soul cultivators.

Chen Mobai's words not only expressed his ideal of Nascent Formation Dao Attainment.

"Then you'll have to work hard."

Although Bian Yiqing was very confident in Chen Mobai's talent, Nascent Formation was, after all, a top-tier achievement in the Immortal Sect, something that couldn't be accomplished simply by having talent.

Even Gongye Zhixu, the Deputy Hall Master Immortal Sect master of the Nascent Formation, was working tirelessly to secure resources for Nascent Soul cultivators.

Even if Chen Mobai manages to Core Formation, it will probably take him another one or two hundred years to obtain the resources needed to Nascent Formation in the Immortal Sect sects, based on seniority.

However, some Nascent Soul cultivators within the Immortal Sect could no longer wait that long.

According to Bian Yiqing's guess, within the next hundred years, the upper-level Nascent Soul cultivators will arrange for this group of Mystic Sound Dao Seed, which have accumulated for more than a hundred years, to collectively perform a Startling Spirit Melody.

In particular, the Immortal Affairs Hall Master, one of the Three Great Hall Lords, had long been rumored to be nearing the end of his lifespan and would Nascent Formation in favor of someone who had reached the Nascent Soul stage.

Of course, Bian Yiqing didn't tell Chen Mobai and Meng Huang'er about these things.

During the meal, as a seasoned veteran, he vaguely sensed that the atmosphere between the man and woman was a little off.

However, at his age, he has come to understand the wisdom of sometimes being wisely ignorant.

Since neither of them brought it up, he simply pretended not to know.

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the three parted ways.

However, at this time, in order to avoid suspicion, Meng Huang'er took the initiative to offer to send Bian Yiqing back to the Dao Academy. It just so happened that her cultivation was about to break through, and she also needed to rent the Cultivation Room Building Nine for a period of time.

But as Chen Mobai walked home alone, he received a text message from Meng Huang'er.

She will be back tonight.

Suddenly, Chen Mobai had a plan to go back to Little South Mountain to farm and hide away for a few days.

But this seems a bit excessive.

After all, Meng Huang'er had come back to the Dao Academy specifically to celebrate his graduation.

Chen Mobai could only sigh, wondering how he could guide Meng Huang'er, who had strayed into the wrong path, back to the right one.

The good news is that graduation is just around the corner.

No matter how hard or tiring it is for him, it will only last for a few days.

That day, Chen Mobai took a deep breath on the balcony of the Hilltop Villa. Meng Huang'er, who was in front of him, held onto the railing with both hands. Her face was also flushed, and she was breathing heavily, calming her slender body, which was a little tired and trembling after a round of cultivation.

"I sense an opportunity for a breakthrough..."

Meng Huang'er slightly raised her hand to brush away the sweaty strands of hair clinging to her flushed cheeks, a hint of joy in her eyes.

The Immortal Sect have abundant records of breakthroughs in cultivation realms. Generally, once you have this feeling, you are almost guaranteed to succeed.

"That's good. I'll come over to Building Nine and book a room later when you break through."

The two had extensive experience in sneaking in and making breakthroughs without being noticed.

When Chen Mobai said that, Meng Huang'er thought of the two times she tried to Foundation Establishment in Building Nine.

When she failed to use the Heaven's Equal Technique the first time, she was truly heartbroken and utterly hopeless.

I never expected that I would have a second chance.

Moreover, he had mastered the Critical Point Method, allowing him, whose Dao Heart Shattered and who was afraid of Foundation Establishment, to calmly overcome this hurdle.

All of this is thanks to this Proud Son of Heaven.

Looking at the young man standing in the rising sun, seemingly radiant, Meng Huang'er was mesmerized. She made up her mind to cling to this powerful figure.

In the early morning forest, brightly colored birds chirped merrily, the fresh air carrying a faint earthy scent. As the sunlight streamed in, glistening dewdrops fell from the distant green leaves, landing on the grass and splashing in all directions.

As the saying goes, "The early bird catches the worm," and seeing such a vibrant scene filled Chen Mobai on the balcony with joy.

He seemed to be immersed in the beauty of this vibrant life, wholeheartedly savoring the satisfaction of the moment.

Before anyone knew it, the Shadows of the two people who had fallen from the balcony into the living room had merged together once again.

Chicheng Cave Heaven.

As one of the Great Cave Heaven of the Immortal Sect, besides the Wuqi Dao Academy, there are other universities of varying sizes.

Among them is a rather unremarkable institution of higher learning called "Flowing Light".

Before she knew it, Shi Wanyu had been studying at this academy for ten years.

For this ordinary young girl, these ten years were the most wonderful and happiest ten years of her life.

This was the first time she had left her parents and felt free and unrestrained on her own.

I also met many different kinds of people at this university.

She became close friends and best confidantes with the other three girls in her dorm.

If I had to say what my regrets were during my ten years of university, it would probably be that I never had a truly unforgettable romance.

On the eve of graduation, Shi Wanyu stood alone on a chair, staring blankly at her phone.

There's a photo on my phone that she took at the Mountain Sea Academy.

In fact, with her looks, she had a whole platoon of suitors in college, and even outside of school, there were men like Gu Mingxuan Wen Xiong.

But after interacting with that person, Shi Wanyu discovered that all the other boys were quite mediocre.

I wish I could be with him...

Thinking this, she opened the drawer and took out the Lipstick that was placed at the very back.

But her face soon fell pale.

That was the Chief of the Wuqi Dao Academy, the undisputed number one in this generation of the Immortal Sect, invincible in the Foundation Establishment, and hailed as a peerless sword genius with the Potential for Spirit Transmutation.

So what if she's beautiful? There are countless goddesses in the Four Great Dao Academies who are prettier, more skilled, and better born than her. Unless the heavens are blind, he would never choose her as his life partner.

Thinking this, Shi Wanyu sighed, pouted, and put the Lipstick back in her hand. Just as she was about to close the drawer, she found that it seemed to be stuck by something.

She pulled it out again, squinted and looked down, finally finding the culprit.

It was a card! The moment Shi Wanyu saw it, she remembered where the card came from.

Because these are also precious and beautiful memories of being with him.

The smiles they exchanged after their long separation in that alleyway of Chicheng Cave Heaven, the surprise of him calling out their names, are still sweet to recall even now.

That fortune teller was just too much of an eyesore.

If it weren't for her, it would be just the two of them enjoying their own private time.

Thinking this, Shi Wanyu took out the card that was stuck in the drawer, flipped it over casually, and was about to put it back when she noticed something different.

"That's strange, I clearly remember there wasn't this arrow on it."

Shi Wanyu looked at the front of the card; it still bore the same line of poetry. "Stars burst forth beyond the rosy clouds, embers fall before the steps."

However, there is an extra light black arrow on the back, which is not very noticeable because the back is also a dark red background.

Because it contained memories related to Chen Mobai, Shi Wanyu had looked through it many times, and she was certain that this arrow hadn't been there before.

After examining the card again, the girl, who clearly lacked any reasoning skills, shook her head and placed the card horizontally at the bottom of the drawer to prevent it from getting stuck again.

But after placing the card horizontally, Shi Wanyu's eyes widened as she discovered a whole new world.

She saw that the arrow had also changed direction.

Shi Wanyu took out the card, pinched it with her slender, snow-white fingers, and rotated it up, down, left, and right. She found that no matter how she turned it, the light black arrow always pointed to the southeast direction.

"What's this?"

She couldn't understand it, but everyone else in the dorm had gone out to meet their boyfriends today, and she couldn't find anyone to talk to.

As a very ordinary university, most students at the Flowing Light Academy are unable to Foundation Establishment upon graduation.

The other three girls in their dormitory didn't plan to join the army, so they had all found boyfriends and were planning to get married after graduation.

Shi Wanyu was just an ordinary pretty girl, and she instinctively resisted the legendary, particularly arduous and tiring Military Department.

But every time she tries to resign herself to finding a boyfriend, Chen Mobai's image always involuntarily comes to mind.

After several attempts, she has now graduated and is still emotionally immature.

Shi Wanyu had originally made up her mind to muster up the courage to confess her feelings to Chen Mobai before graduation.

If she is rejected, she will give up completely and, like her friends, just marry any guy she finds pleasing to the eye who treats her well.

If fate is blind and she actually succeeds, then she can happily conceive his child and become a virtuous wife and loving mother...

But I kept getting stuck at the send step after opening my phone and composing the text message.

Shi Wanyu knew that once this text message was sent, their relationship, which was originally one of friendship, might come to an end.

So each time, her fingers trembled, unable to bring herself to click.

The same applies today.

Just as Shi Wanyu was banging her head in frustration, she suddenly noticed that the arrow on the card in her hand was glowing.

It seemed to be guiding her in this direction.

"Since I have nothing else to do, I might as well go take a look."

Shi Wanyu glanced at the empty dormitory, put on a light sweater and cardigan, changed into her round-toed leather shoes, and went out with the card in her hand.

As she walked, she came to a museum in the Flowing Light Academy.

This is an exhibition hall open to both students and the general public, displaying various items belonging to famous figures from the school.

Shi Wanyu looked at the card in her hand, and after confirming that it still pointed to this place, she swiped her Student ID, passed through the gate, and went inside.

[Is it still at the back of the exhibition hall?]

This museum is usually not crowded, and now that graduation is approaching, it's practically empty, except for Shi Wanyu, who is holding a card and muttering to herself.

But just as she was thinking about whether to go out and explore the back of the museum, the arrow on the card in her hand suddenly disappeared.

[Huh?]

Shi Wanyu was taken aback. She picked up the card and looked at it carefully, and found that it was indeed gone.

She couldn't help but look up and around, and there was an exhibit right in front of her.

This is an elegant longsword displayed in a glass case.

Below are the name and description.

[Flowing Light Sword!]

Shi Wanyu carefully read the description below and discovered that it was a Third Grade low-grade sword, the personal sword of the first principal of their Flowing Light Academy.

This principal came from the Wuqi Dao Academy. Although he successfully Foundation Establishment, he failed at the critical moment of forming his Cantong Qi because he lacked a sufficiently powerful natal Comprehend Together object in his Core Formation. In his lifetime, he only achieved the perfection of the Foundation Establishment.

However, when the principal passed away, he used the Cantong Qi to integrate his life's essence into this Flowing Light Sword, upgrading it from Second Grade -order weapon to Third Grade weapon.

To commemorate the principal and this spirit, the Flowing Light Sword was sealed here, and every year a Immortal Sect sends out Spirit Stone to nourish it and prevent it from losing its rank.

Upon seeing this, Shi Wanyu examined the Flowing Light Sword more closely and, sure enough, discovered a piece of jade with a dull luster on the silk cloth pressing down on the Sword Hilt.

This must be Spirit Stone! In the Immortal Sect, although most people know about Spirit Stone, they have basically only seen them on TV.

When Shi Wanyu was at the Mountain Sea Academy, she had seen the Spirit Stone of the Purple Lightning Sword, but there was still a huge difference between the Spirit Stone Spirit Stone.

After seeing the Flowing Light Sword, Shi Wanyu still didn't know why the card had led her here.

She looked around again, but still found nothing. She shook her head and turned to leave.

But then she noticed someone standing behind her.

"Ah!"

Shi Wanyu couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, but soon she realized that she had actually seen this person before.

The card in her hand was drawn from her.
