Chapter 665 A Master's Guidance: Investigating the Base
"My sword intent has advanced!"

Yin Li was slightly taken aback when he sensed the change in Luo Cheng's sword intent.

She had only casually given Luo Cheng a few pointers, but unexpectedly, the next moment, Luo Cheng's sword intent directly advanced from the late stage of the nine-tenths sword intent rudimentary form to the perfect stage!

This seems a bit too exaggerated!

Those few words pointed out the flaws in Luo Cheng's sword intent, but knowing it is one thing, doing it is another!

Otherwise, wouldn't all disciples of those powerful sects and great forces be able to comprehend sword intent and achieve great success with guidance from senior masters?

Moreover, reaching the initial stage of ninety percent sword intent is still a very large threshold, becoming increasingly difficult as one progresses. Even a small threshold can often trap many people.

This is why, among the many inner disciples of the three major sects who have grasped the rudiments of sword intent, not a single one has become a sword intent-level swordsman!

Without exceptional swordsmanship comprehension, even a Sword King as your master wouldn't be able to take this step.

"Receiving the swordsmanship inheritance only opened a path for him to become stronger. What truly brought him to where he is today is his own swordsmanship comprehension. Coupled with his extraordinary soul power talent..."

Yin Li stared at Luo Cheng, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

Sword intent determines the strength of a swordsman's combat power, and soul power is closely related to the strength of sword intent!
Luo Cheng possesses the inheritance of the Killing Sword Intent, along with extremely strong sword comprehension and extraordinary soul power talent. For a swordsman, this is an all-around strength, terrifyingly strong!
Yin Li couldn't help but feel a strange sense of anticipation: if Luo Cheng were to comprehend the true sword intent in the future and become a sword intent-level swordsman, how extraordinary his combat power would be!
Perhaps with his Awakening Realm cultivation, he could fight against a powerful expert!
Thinking of this, even Yin Li's heart couldn't help but pound.
Oh oh oh!
With the death of the Eagle-Winged Blood Wolf Overlord, the other lower-level Eagle-Winged Blood Wolves were immediately terrified and fled in all directions, howling in despair.

With his sword intent advancing, Luo Cheng was in high spirits and stopped killing. His Thunder Concealment Sword flew continuously, and the rampant sword energy cleaved open the corpses of the nearby Eagle-Winged Blood Wolves one by one. With a wave of his hand, he took the Soul Crystals.

There were a total of thirty-one four-star soul crystals. The soul crystal of the Eagle-Winged Blood Wolf Overlord was noticeably larger, with surging Yuan Qi inside. It was a top-grade four-star soul crystal!

Sheathing his sword, Luo Cheng solemnly said to Yin Li, "Thank you for your guidance, Sister Yin Li."

Although he had previously touched upon ninety percent of the rudimentary form of sword intent, he still needed some time to comprehend and accumulate knowledge before truly breaking through!

Yin Li's words saved him a lot of hard work.

Not only that, Luo Cheng felt that his mastery of the killing sword intent had become even purer!

The killing intent is inherited from the will of the Sword King.

This belongs to someone else, after all.

When Luo Cheng was cultivating before, it felt like looking at flowers through fog, unable to find the right way.

Now it has become clear, and there is a definite direction for cultivation!
Following this path, Luo Cheng was confident that, given time, he would definitely be able to integrate the killing sword intent into himself, and then he would be able to demonstrate the true power of this sword king's sword intent!
All of this is thanks to Yin Li.

No wonder they say three years of hard practice is not as good as a single point from a famous teacher!
“Those words are nothing, you don’t need to thank me. Whatever you can learn from them is due to your outstanding swordsmanship comprehension. With your swordsmanship comprehension, your future achievements in swordsmanship will surely be extraordinary. However, the premise is that you can reach a higher realm, at least to the True Person level.”

Yin Li gently shook her head. After speaking, she glanced into the distance, her eyes flashing slightly: "The stench of blood here is too strong. Let's leave first."

"it is good!"

Luo Cheng also sensed that powerful demonic energy was approaching, and two of them made him feel a sense of crisis, indicating that they were at least five-star demonic beasts!

Clearly, the fierce battle just now had shattered the tranquility of the Black Cloud Mountains at night.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
The two figures flashed and darted off in the direction with the fewest monsters.

Rumble!
They had only walked a dozen or so miles when suddenly, two terrifying roars rang out, shaking the entire forest.

Luo Cheng's gaze involuntarily drifted backward.

In the darkness of night, two enormous shadows, each the size of a small mountain, collided violently. With a deafening roar, the entire world flickered and the terrifying shockwave leveled a large area of ​​forest. A violent and ferocious aura surged forth, making Luo Cheng's heart pound with fear.

“Those are the Yin Wind Demon Bear and the Bone-Eating Wolf, top-tier five-star demonic beasts,” Yin Li said.

"A five-star top-tier monster!"

Luo Cheng couldn't help but take a deep breath. A five-star top-tier demonic beast was comparable to a top-tier Earth-level expert! With his current strength, he was far from being able to contend with it; a single demonic energy blast would probably crush him.

After glancing at Yin Li, Luo Cheng calmed down a bit.

"This forest is unlikely to be peaceful tonight. Let's go."

The two quickened their pace and flew rapidly southwest.

After walking two or three hundred miles in one go, the terrifying roars of beasts around us gradually subsided.

"Let's find a safe place to rest first," Yin Li said.

"it is good."

Two figures moved swiftly like streaks of light amidst the rolling mountains.

After traveling several hundred miles, a series of lakes came into view.

The lakes vary in size, some are gourd-shaped, some are snake-shaped, and some are round, hidden among the mountains. The gray-brown water vapor adds a touch of mystery.

The water sources in the Black Cloud Mountains often harbor more monsters and are extremely dangerous. Yin Li quickened his pace, preparing to leave the area, but Luo Cheng suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" Yin Li asked.

Looking at the mountains and rivers ahead, Luo Cheng frowned and said, "Don't you think it's too quiet here?"

Yin Li was taken aback, and her expression immediately turned serious.

At night, the Black Cloud Mountains should be teeming with monsters, especially since it's a water source!

However, it was unusually quiet here, and there was not a trace of demonic beast aura.

"Go down."

Without hesitation, Yin Li landed on a secluded cliff with Luo Cheng and said to Luo Cheng, "Use your soul power to investigate."

Luo Cheng nodded, immediately sat down cross-legged, and released his soul power with all his might.

Golden waves surged in Luo Cheng's sea of ​​consciousness, and his powerful soul force perception immediately swept outwards. Although it was night, every corner and movement was clearly presented in Luo Cheng's mind.

It wasn't until half an hour later that Luo Cheng opened his eyes.

Yin Li asked, "What did you find?"

Luo Cheng nodded and pointed to a circular lake in the distance. "The other lakes all have the aura of demonic beasts, but in that lake, I not only didn't sense any demonic beasts, but there wasn't even any life force. There were also many traces of human activity within a few miles."

"Oh?"

Yin Li's eyes flashed as he gazed at the circular lake, his expression thoughtful: "You mean, that lake is the entrance to the Blood Nether Cult's stronghold?"

"It's just a possibility; I can't be sure."

Yin Li asked, "Could you find out more details?"

Luo Cheng shook his head: "The water flow here has too much of an impact on my soul power. My soul power can only penetrate to a depth of a few dozen meters. If we want to continue the investigation, we must enter the lake."

"No. That would be too easy to alert the enemy, and too dangerous..."

Yin Li shook his head slightly, then sat down cross-legged, gazing at the circular lake in the distance: "There's no need to investigate further. We'll just wait here. If this place really is a Blood Nether Cult stronghold, there will definitely be Blood Nether Cult members around."

Upon hearing this, Luo Cheng breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't want to investigate any further. If this really was a Blood Nether Sect stronghold, Blood Raven Master and that Lord Tu might be inside. If he disturbed them, Yin Li might not be able to escape, but he would definitely be dead!
