Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi

Are you still looking at that Butterfly People?

From afar, one could see Yinjiao leisurely descending from the clouds, his hands behind his back.

"If I remember correctly, she's Jialuo's little apprentice, isn't she?"

As one of the very few students who mastered the skills of "Riding Clouds and Driving Mist" and "Mind-Reading Divine Ability" before graduation, Jialuo's fame far exceeded her own expectations.

At the very least, Yinjiao still remembers that clever and lovable little girl.

"Yes, but she's not Jialuo's apprentice, just her student."

Jinjiao glanced at Yinjiao with considerable surprise and then Orthodox Dao.

Students are students, apprentices are apprentices...

This distinction is clear both on Earth and in the mythological era.

Or to be more precise, even the concept of "student" only appeared after Li Boyang established the school.

On the other hand, the apprentices are the ones who can truly inherit the mantle.

Even Li Boyang currently only has three disciples who are truly acknowledged by him: Lu Huaijin, Jinjiao, and Yinjiao.

What's the difference?

"She'll take on apprentices sooner or later anyway, won't she?"

He shrugged nonchalantly, and then a strange light flashed from the silver gourd on Yinjiao's back.

The next second, a sword Sword Qi shot out from the silver gourd, instantly transforming into several longswords that shot towards Jinjiao.

Unfortunately, Jinjiao had clearly anticipated this.

With a gentle wave of his sleeve, a giant golden hand materialized.

That was the physical manifestation of [Body-Protecting Gang Qi], naturally inheriting Jinjiao's formidable defensive attributes.

Clang!

In an instant, the sound of metal clashing suddenly rang out.

Just like countless previous "sneak attacks," Yinjiao's offensive was easily neutralized by Jinjiao.

"You've made quite a bit of progress this time!"

Slightly surprised, Jinjiao watched the Sword Qi dancing on his fingertips, and clearly felt a slight stinging sensation.

"This is called the Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi, specifically designed to break through your Golden Gang Qi!"

"Not at all surprised by Jinjiao's performance, "Yinjiao said with considerable pride.

"My master once said that, in addition to the three paths of essence, energy, and spirit, the Heart Dao has also begun to take shape."

"My Innate Body-Breaking Formless Sword Qi is a fusion of some of the power of the Heart Dao; born from the will, it is indestructible."

Nodding knowingly, Jinjiao replied in realization.

"I see, no wonder I always felt this Sword Qi was so strange."

"Forging the sword with finesse, refining it with inner energy, controlling it with spirit, and then urging it forward with the heart..."

"No wonder he could unleash such astonishing murderous intent and murderous aura with such meager strength."

As he said this, Jinjiao's gaze unconsciously drifted towards the silver gourd behind Yinjiao.

Jinjiao, who always considered himself the elder brother, suddenly realized that it seemed like he hadn't seen Yinjiao fully activate the silver gourd in a long time.

Let's leave aside the [Immortal-Slaying Flying Knife] inside the gourd.

The thousands of Sword Qi contained within, once released, would be enough to destroy the heavens and the earth.

"Hmph! No matter how much I improve, it won't be as much as your improvement!"

The pride on his face instantly turned into jealousy; Yinjiao disliked Jinjiao's overly humble attitude.

If you claim to have made significant progress, then how come you so easily blocked Jinjiao's attack?

If I didn't know that Jinjiao has always had this kind of personality...

Yinjiao even began to suspect that the other party was deliberately flattering him to death.

"You didn't come here just for Yun Xiu and Zixiu, did you?"

Seeing this, Jinjiao, who also knew Yinjiao's personality well, quickly changed the subject.

My younger sister is great in every way, except that she can never change her competitive nature.

"You guessed right this time, I came here for them."

Yinjiao glanced at Jinjiao deliberately, not believing that the other party hadn't noticed the trickery involving Yun Xiu Zixiu.

"Did Master send you?"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Jinjiao countered with this question.

Given Jinjiao's abilities, it was impossible for him not to notice the trickery involving Yun Xiu.

Even Zixiu and Yun Xiu were able to be granted special permission to cultivate on this Spirit Gathering Island, all with Li Boyang's approval and tacit consent.

After all, this is the only university in the Hundred Li Mountain Range.

At this stage, apart from a very few exceptionally gifted Innate Divine Being, only the Three-Eyed Mountain Folk are qualified to learn Law Technique and Divine Ability here.

The former goes without saying.

Blessed by the Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, as long as they don't die young, their minimum potential is that of gods.

As for the latter?

That being was known to outsiders as the "Three-Eyed Holy Demons".

Reasons for being granted special permission to cultivate here include things like exceptional talent or congenital disabilities.

Only those two naive guys, Zixiu and Yun Xiu, would believe such a superficial excuse.

"Of course! If it weren't for Master, I wouldn't bother coming here to see you!"

Seeing Yinjiao's insincere words, Jinjiao couldn't help but laugh.

However, since it was rare for Yinjiao to come and see him, Jinjiao didn't intend to expose him.

"Don't worry, with me watching over things, nothing serious will happen."

The composed Jinjiao said this, and then shared his observations and conclusions from this period of time.

"Zixiu aside Zixiu for now, it's pretty much certain that he's Heart Demon."

"However, he cleverly avoided directly possessing another body, instead exploiting a loophole in the reincarnation system to reincarnate as Butterfly People."

Before the establishment of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation System, reincarnation was usually the privilege of powerful deities.

However, since the establishment of the "Six Paths of Reincarnation System," special beings like Heart Demon have been able to be reincarnated in a targeted manner through the Heaven Hun System.

If it weren't for his overly mature mind and behavior that was different from that of ordinary Butterfly People, even Jinjiao probably wouldn't have been able to determine the other party's true identity.

"What about Yun Xiu?"

Frowning slightly, Yinjiao then asked.

Compared to the exceptionally gifted Zixiu, Yun Xiu's performance in all aspects was no different from that of an ordinary person.

Adding to his congenital physical defects, Yinjiao simply couldn't imagine that the other party would also be a Heart Demon.

But Yinjiao trusted his master's judgment. Since his master had sent Yun Xiu and Zixiu to Spirit Gathering Island to cultivate together, it meant that she must also have some problems.

"Yun Xiu? Her situation is more complicated than Zixiu's."

After a slight hesitation, Jinjiao finally spoke slowly.

"First of all, she was indeed born with a deficiency; if the Butterfly People hadn't migrated to the Hundred Lands Mountain Range, she wouldn't have been able to survive at all."

The Butterfly People's growth process is divided into three stages: embryo, larva, and adult.

Yun Xiu is theoretically destined to die in the embryonic stage.

However, due to the formation of the social system of the Butterfly People, they received sufficient nutritional supplements.

From a rational perspective, Jinjiao doesn't believe any Heart Demon would be foolish enough to choose such a doomed body to be born into.

"I gave her the Innate Qi-Meridian Qi and Blood and Qi Restoration Pill, but it only barely brought her physique up to the level of an ordinary Butterfly People."
