suddenly.
Jing Yuan turned his head Jun Ran was not far away:
"Come and duel him!"
It's over!
We've been caught!
Jun Ran regretted not leaving sooner. She sighed softly, then, swaying her green skirt, she came to the two of them.
Xie Feng said, "Lord of the Manor, please draw your sword!"
Jun Ran's beautiful eyes flickered slightly, and she nodded a little. She suppressed her Saint King Tenth Stage cultivation to Saint Ninth Stage, putting herself on the same level as Xie Feng.
In her opinion, this is fair!
She disdained bullying the weak and oppressed.
Jun Ran twirled his fingers, and a streak of azure light flashed, the sword light majestic, like a phoenix soaring through the heavens!
Holy Sword, Azure Phoenix!
Jun Ran was the first to draw his sword, his Sword Intent like waves, layer upon layer, his Sword Might fierce.
Spiritual Qi overflowed from the Azure Phoenix Sword, unrestrained and sharp, clearly demonstrating that its swordsmanship had reached a level of consummate skill and even greater heights!
Xie Feng lowered his brows slightly, not daring to relax his vigilance in the slightest. He drew his Cherished Wine Cup Sword, its Sword Qi incredibly vast.
The Twin Swords clashed, shaking the heavens and earth, shattering mountains and rivers!
Xie Feng focused his mind and body on the sword, and under immense pressure, the Sword Intent suddenly erupted with even greater power!
Eighth-Rank Sword Might!
Ninth-Rank Sword Might!
Tenth-grade Sword Might!
Its power increased steadily, quickly surpassing the limits of Sword Might, and a hint of agility appeared faintly!
Sword Soul!
This guy is a natural!
Jing Yuan's expression changed slightly, and a faint light appeared in her eyes!
At this moment.
Jun Ran suddenly stopped, smiling, and said, "Sect Master, your Swordsmanship is superb! If we continue, I'm afraid I'll only be humiliating myself!"
Xie Feng sheathed his sword and laughed, "Lord of the Manor, you flatter me. Compared to you, I still have a long way to go!"
Jing Yuan walked over slowly, hands in her sleeves. She finally nodded and said:
"You've mastered the second aspect, Sword Soul, without a teacher! Your learning ability is truly remarkable. What insights did you gain during your battle with Jun Ran just now?"
"It's as if the sword possesses a soul; it's unfathomable and incredibly profound!"
Xie Feng thought back carefully.
"The most distinctive feature of Sword Soul lies in its 'spirit.' When a sword is cultivated to possess a sword's soul, it gains sentience. After that, it can transform into all things, and all things can become like a sword!"
Jing Yuan looked up and gazed around, and Xie Feng and the other person followed suit.
"Look, every mountain, every river, every blade of grass, every tree before you can be used by you, transformed into Sword Intent, allowing you to wield heaven and earth as your sword—this is the realm of Sword Soul!"
" Sword Might can be learned through hard work, but further advancement relies heavily on talent and potential!"
"If those who can master the Sword Might are geniuses, then those who can step into the realm of the Sword Soul are geniuses among geniuses, truly prodigies with extraordinary talent!"
Even Jun Ran only mastered the Four Meanings of the Sword up to the Sword Soul realm, and made no further progress!
Jing Yuan said, glancing at him coldly.
Jun Ran lowered his eyes in shame.
She was already a powerful ruler, the head of the Green Duckweed Manor, yet she still couldn't escape being reprimanded...
In front of outsiders, Master remains as ruthless as ever...
"This requires understanding. Try to grasp about 70-80% of it first, and then we'll talk about it!"
Jing Yuan spoke, he casually tossed down a Cultivation Method.
Xie Feng took it and saw that the cover read " Sword Soul Summary," and those four words alone were filled with the ultimate Sword Intent!
Jun Ran looked up, slightly surprised. " Sword Soul Summary? This is a summary of Master's lifelong Sword Dao experience, condensing her highest insights and thoughts on the Sword Dao. It can be described as a priceless treasure!"
She blinked in surprise. This Cultivation Method was usually only practiced by the master's personal disciples!
Not long after his master met Xie Feng, he not only took the initiative to teach him Swordsmanship, but also explained the Four Meanings of the Sword and gave him a family heirloom-level Cultivation Method!
Could it be that Master sees his potential and wants to take him as a disciple?
The master is always aloof and reserved. She doesn't say it out loud, but her actions have already shown that she considers Xie Feng her personal disciple!
Jun Ran's red lips curved slightly, and from then on, she looked at Xie Feng as if he were her own junior brother.
Xie Feng asked Jun Ran, "Is there a quiet place around here? I'd like to find some time to refine pills."
Jun Ran's eyes lit up, and he immediately nodded. "Yes, yes, yes!"
This person is reliable; he truly keeps his promises!
Jing Yuan sneered, "So you're just annoyed that I'll bother you? Hmph, I won't set foot here again for the next three months!"
"No, you are the master of the valley..." Xie Feng pleaded.
"You stay here by yourself!" Jing Yuan said angrily.
"Senior! I can stay here, but... could you teach me the third principle of Sword Dao?" Xie Feng asked.
Jing Yuan: "..."
Her anger flared up instantly.
How did this person manage to say that without blushing or skipping a beat?
You have such a thick skin!
He looks so proper!
In this way, I'm starting to resemble someone more and more.
As expected of master and disciple...
Jing Yuan said irritably, "Once you understand this Cultivation Method, you'll naturally grasp the Third Principle!"
With that, she strode away, her sleeves fluttering and stirring up a gust of cold wind.
When Jun Ran heard that Xie Feng was going to refine pills, he was overjoyed and hurriedly sent people to transport countless rare medicinal herbs to the valley, saying that if there were any left over, he would give them all to him.
In the valley.
Xie Feng's mind raced.
Bang!
A towering, mountain-like, ink-black Pill Furnace appeared.
The Immortal-Slaying Furnace!
He unleashed the Northern Nether Illusory Flame, its flames blazing like a dragon.
Smoke and clouds rose in wisps.
Xie Feng began to devote himself to refining elixirs.
Three days later.
The elixir is complete!
After that, he sat cross-legged under the waterfall, engrossed in reading.
An endless Sword Intent swirled around him, like layers of clouds, heavily pressing down and giving people a great sense of oppression.
Xie Feng remained unmoved, the waterfall cascading like a ribbon, like a steadfast and silent statue.
Forget things, forget yourself, forget your mind.
The valley was peaceful and serene.
Outside the valley, the clouds and waves were unpredictable.
The Demonic Sect and the Immortal Alliance have formed a secret alliance and devised a meticulous plan to target the Seven Stars Domain!
First, they won over more than 20 top forces from the second and third tiers to jointly isolate the Seven Stars Domain.
Then they cut off vital resource exchanges with the Seven Stars Domain and frequently harassed the border...
In an instant, the world underwent a dramatic change.
Seven Stars Domain, Purple Tenuity Palace.
When Madam Wenqu heard that An Ya of the Sun and Moon Palace had been killed by Zhu Mingming, she was stunned for a moment. After a brief silence, she turned to Xuanyuan Zhige, who was standing to the side, and said:
" The Immortal Alliance and the Demonic Sect have actually joined forces. It seems that the killing of the four elders has angered the Demonic Sect. However, their intentions are obvious. Testing our borders is just a trigger!"
"It's a loss for us that An Ya has been found to be associating with us!"
" The Sun and Moon Palace, as the most steadfast force within the Immortal Alliance, is like a tiger's claw that must be removed! Fortunately, there are still some hidden forces that haven't been exposed!"
"As for the faction under the Immortal Alliance disturbing our borders... Zhige fighting! Issue the order to reinforce each of the four borders with 30,000 troops. Observe the situation first. If the situation develops seriously, then send more troops!"
"By the way, is Lord Yuheng guarding the western border? Transfer him back; he has more important things to do!"
"Hmph, after all these years of ups and downs in the Seven Stars Domain, do you think we're afraid of them?!"
" Zhige! Reunite the seven Star Lord scattered across the land with the Purple Tenuity Palace! The heavens are about to change!"
A fierce rage burned in Madam Wenqu's eyes.
Xuanyuan Zhige cupped his hands and said, "Yes, sir!"
As if remembering something, he suddenly looked up and said cautiously and hesitantly, "Master, Lord Yaoguang... might be replaced... He made that decision today..."
Madam Wenqu: "..."
After a long silence.
Madam Wenqu's eyes reddened slightly as she said in a deep voice, "I understand! Now... go and take a look!"
Xuanyuan Zhige nodded. "Yes!"
