"To leave such a mark on the Sword Mark Stone is simply outrageous!"

Wei Zhaoliu clenched his fists, trembling with anger.

Li Mo coughed lightly:

"Is it possible that he didn't want this either?"

"It just so happens that I gained some insight up there, and I just so happens that I left that insight up there."

Upon hearing Wei Zhaoliu paused, opened his mouth, but ultimately pursed his lips and lowered his head.

She had studied the Spirit Stone since childhood, but she could not budge the sword mark in the slightest.

But the other party, on the very first try, managed to transform the Spirit Stone into their own shape.

The gap is simply despair-inducing.

For a moment, Wei Zhaoliu glazed over.

That sword mark seemed like a divine decree; how could it have ended so easily...?

"Cough cough."

Seeing that she was on the verge of a mental breakdown again, Li Mo said seriously:

"Senior Sister Wei, your swordsmanship talent is amazing. One day, you'll be able to comprehend an even more powerful Swordsmanship. Then you'll be able to change the Spirit Stone back to its original state, won't you?"

The combination of soothing the Will Soul and gentle words has an exceptionally good effect.

"Yes, I just need to try a little harder..."

Wei Zhaoliu nodded emphatically. "Thank you for your guidance, Junior Brother! If you have any questions about swordsmanship, feel free to ask me!"

"Helping others is the source of happiness; there's no need to fuss over it."

Li Mo blinked calmly.

Wei Zhaoliu sighed:

"This guy is a complete freak."

In what aspect?

"Various aspects, not to mention talent, who's going to practice anything good anyway?"

Wei Zhaoliu indignantly.

"..."

Li Mo was silent for a few seconds, and said with great empathy:

"If given a choice, who would want to... Actually, those who practice with hammers aren't necessarily bad people."

Wei Zhaoliu frowned. "Junior brother, why are you still sympathizing with that person? Are you quite familiar with him?"

"To be honest, I'm his sworn enemy."

"That's true, junior brother, you really don't have that kind of presence."

Wei Zhaoliu.

When she practiced with a hammer, she automatically conjured up an image of a burly, fierce-looking man who could eat three children in one meal.

This junior colleague is handsome and gentle; he doesn't seem like the type to get along with that kind of person at all.

And he had just helped me.

He's a really nice person.

After Sword Tower, he did not return to Yun Province City.

Today, Ice Block is giving a sermon at the Sword Pool.

The so-called Sword Pool is the place where Cloud-Crossing Sword City stores swords, similar to the Divine Blade Cave. It is a very large open-air plaza.

At the center is a crystal-clear pool of water, in which all sorts of swords are kept.

At this moment, the Sword Pool was teeming with people, forming layers upon layers.

"No wonder Ying Bing was chosen as one of this year's Sword Hero; what she said was even better than what my External Scene Realm Master said."

"If only she were a disciple of Sword City."

"If she were a disciple of Sword City, I'm afraid it wouldn't be long before our senior sister is replaced."

"It's a pity I didn't get to hear Young Hero Li preach. He's also a sword Sword Immortal; I wonder what unique insights he might have about the way of the sword."

While listening attentively, hushed whispers could be heard from time to time.

Seeing that there were too many people and class was about to end, Li Mo simply didn't go in.

I stood there for a while.

He suddenly became lost in thought.

Not far away, a small figure carrying a basket on his back was poking the ground with Peach Blossom Branch.

With a gentle flick, a broken piece of the sword blade was lifted up and flew into her small basket.

The air was humid, and her hair clung to her neck, but she seemed to enjoy it nonetheless.

"Chulong, why don't you go to the Sword Pool?"

Seeing the shallow dimples at the corners of her mouth, Li Mo walked up and asked.

"I've already... I've already heard it."

"You've heard it?"

"What Sister Bing said... and what the teacher said... seem very similar..."

"..."

"Could it be that Sister Bing... was also... disciplined by the teacher?"

Jiang Chulong tilted her head, looking a little confused.

"That's not necessarily true. After all, the principles of swordsmanship lead to the same goal through different paths; perhaps they just have similar understandings."

"Hmm... right."

Princess Little Jiang thought Big Brother Li's words made a lot of sense.

Watching her precisely pick up a broken sword from the ground, Li Mo asked:

"Chulong, how did you know there was a sword in the ground?"

"Because... because I can hear... and... and so much more."

Having nothing to do.

So, Li Mo accompanied Princess Little Jiang and happily picked up trash near the Sword Pool.

If we disregard the fact that everything found is broken swords and shattered blades, it does resemble a hike in the mountains, digging for wild vegetables and picking mushrooms...

Not long after.

The small baskets were almost full.

"Why are there swords everywhere...?"

"Strangeness."

Li Mo discovered that the soil nearby was filled with broken swords.

They were buried quite neatly.

"Of course it's strange."

A familiar voice rang out.

You could tell he was suppressing some kind of emotion.

"Um?"

Li Mo looked up and saw Elder Zeng standing there with a dark face, looking at the two of them with annoyance.

"These swords have been buried around the Sword Pool for a long time."

"I never expected you guys to dig this out."

"Long time?"

A thought struck Li Mo: if these swords had been buried for so long without being discovered by anyone else, wouldn't that mean they were all extremely extraordinary?

If it weren't for Princess Little Jiang's Innate Sword Fetus, it's unlikely that she could have been found.

Could it be a treasure specifically designed to test a disciple's talent?

Elder Zeng's face darkened even more:

"That's right, I set up Sword-Nurturing Array around the Sword Pool according to the Qimen Dunjia divination method, and now look what happened, you've dug it all out!"

Li Mo: "..."

He was just about to tell Princess Little Jiang that the sword wasn't some unwanted piece of trash and needed to be put back.

But Jiang Chulong was drooping her head, looking pitiful, with the small basket on her back weighing more than she was on her thin shoulders.

She whispered, "But... but these swords... are crying..."

"Ahem... Elder Zeng."

"Um?"

"Could your sect find a different method to nurture the sword?"

"Compared to using a damaged sword, other methods are far more costly! Who's paying for it? You?"

"Then it has to be me."

[Congratulations, host! You have successfully invested in a Gold-Stone Hidden Sword Array.]

[Investment Feedback: 100 Years of Martial Arts Insights]

Exchanging money for insights into martial arts is an incredibly good deal.

Little Li needs a lot of insights into martial arts.

He still needs to condense four more Profound Pill.

In other words, he still needs to cultivate four more mental techniques, push them to the Profound Pill Realm, and transform them into stars in the <Celestial Star Profound Pill Scripture>.

Nowadays, no amount of martial arts insights is much to him.

As a result, Elder Zeng enhanced the spirituality of the Sword Pool, Little Jiang obtained the hard-won trash, and Li Mo gained insights into martial arts.

A win-win-win situation!

Three days later.

The elders, who were already on their way, had not yet arrived.

The new Hidden Dragon Ranking is about to be released.

Little Li didn't sleep last night; instead, he practiced the Eight Treasures Gold-Devouring Art all night.

With all sorts of rare treasures, and having already traversed the path to the Profound Pill Realm, the process went very smoothly.

However, it's still a ways off from condensing another Profound Pill.

"At this rate, it will probably take two months to gather Seven Stars..."

Not long after.

Everyone from Clear Abyss Sect had gathered.

"The elders should be arriving soon; I wonder if they'll have time to check the list immediately."

Shen Yunfei smiled and said, "Let's set off!"

Very few disciples from Clear Abyss Sect make it onto the list.

However, this time, two people are a sure thing, it's just unknown how high they will rank.

Thinking this way.

He looked into the distance.

There, the boy and girl walked out of the courtyard together.

The little girl with her eyes covered by a strip of cloth followed behind.

Shen Yunfei had a misconception.

In just a few days, their auras... have become stronger?
