After 100 years of leatherworking, I have become a giant in the magic sect.

Chapter 232 231. Amazing Qualification, Six Paths Ringing Together (6.0K words - please subscribe)
On the Liangji Sword Stage, the old man was wearing a purple cloud robe, with his hair and beard standing tall. He was staring at the dragon skeleton with a frown on his face.

Lei Che touched his bald head, and came over happily. He lowered his body to look at the dragon skeleton, and suddenly raised his hand and drew a text in the air, and then said: "Elder Dan, this text is called "The Law of Dragon Burial", and it was presented by a kid who came with us this time."

The purple cloud robed old man known as Elder Dan narrowed his eyes and stared at the words that appeared in the void, then looked at the dragon skeleton and snorted coldly, "The rotten dragon exhaled, and its blood essence came to the stele. The thousand coffins have the same lifespan. The stele-eating evil disease seems to be that when someone ate the stele, even this dragon was gnawed."

Lei Che said: "I have checked the two boys who came to my Sword Palace. They are all pure and kind, and there is no trace of evil."

Elder Dan asked, "Could it be that you have forgotten about the reincarnation of the split soul? If there is a reincarnation of the split soul, how can the actions of the split soul involve the main soul?"

Reacher:.
Elder Dan said, "How can the master of a mere 4th level Xiuxuan Land resist the Five Spirits Heavenly Demon Palace?"

Lei Che said, "It's because Senior Gu Mohan killed a dragon and his power is still there; Elder Ning is hovering around, shaking the mountain and shocking the tiger, and the Five Spirits Demon Palace needs to slowly simmer to absorb the five spirits, so this level 4 Xuan cultivation land can be slowly eaten away."

Elder Dan suddenly said, "Lei Che."

Lei Che's body stiffened, he took a long breath, bowed and said: "Right is right, wrong is wrong, this time, it was my fault for being careless."

Elder Dan waved his hand and said, "It is a great honor to know one's mistakes and then improve. There is something wrong with this dragon skeleton. It will not enter the Bipolar Sword Platform for now. The two boys are keeping a close eye on them. Take them to the Sword Tomb to have a look, and then come here to test the original text's qualifications. Perhaps the result will be self-evident."

Lei Che said: "Elder, there is actually only one person in the Xuanhuang realm. There is also a boy who is a registered disciple who has received the immortal order from Elder Ning, and his realm has not yet broken through Xuanhuang."

Elder Dan turned his head to look at the female cultivator in linen clothes and straw sandals on the other side and said, "Brother Daozhen's registered disciple, that is Yun Miao, whom you took away?"

Ning Yunmiao said respectfully: "Reporting to Elder Dan, Song Yan is in my Qingzhu Mountain."

Elder Dan said: "Practicing evil skills is a small matter, but if you walk into the Five Spirits Heavenly Demon Palace's spies, you can't guarantee that they will do something extraordinary."

After thinking for a while, Elder Dan suddenly asked, "Did anyone get off the boat during this journey?"

Lei Che said: "The emperor deliberately got off the boat halfway, went to the pawnshop, and bought two pills to wash away the karma."

Elder Dan said, "Let's check if he left anything behind. The starry sky around our Vast Sea Region is a dangerous place, and the entrance is unknown to outsiders. If he deliberately left some information, it would be troublesome after all."

Lei Che touched his head awkwardly and said, "We encountered a star disaster in the Star Raft Market. The market may have been destroyed a long time ago. We can't investigate it even if we want to."

Elder Dan asked curiously, "Star disaster?"

Ning Yunmiao thought for a moment and sketched some words in the air, saying, "My junior brother stayed in the cabin and saw a strange black slate with these words on it. So I think it's not a star disaster, but a man-made disaster."

Elder Dan looked at it intently and read slowly: "When the gate of hell opens, you must believe it. When the gate cracks, you can see into the netherworld. The white bone hand is a sign of happiness. Before the hand arrives, the soul will solidify first."

He frowned and thought for a moment, then said, "Tell me what you saw during the star disaster that day. What did you see?"

Ning Yunmiao and Lei Che told the story verbatim such as "the gates of hell opened and the bones pulled people in" and "the world-devouring beast suddenly appeared and disappeared".

Elder Dan suddenly calmed down, his expression showing deep thought. After a long while, he said, "I have my own arrangements for this matter. You don't need to worry about it. Just act according to the plan and take the two new disciples for a look to see what their purpose is. As for the dragon skeleton, wait until it is purified before entering the sword arena."

After saying this, Elder Dan left in a hurry, as if he had suddenly discovered some great treasure or great opportunity. He was solemn, nervous, and puzzled, muttering some strange words like "heaven, earth, and man", "three realms", and "birth".
Ning Yunmiao and Lei Che looked at each other, and there was no surprise.

Elder Dan is always so anxious, and he will do whatever he thinks of immediately.

Lei Che said, "Fellow Daoist Yun Miao, you keep an eye on Song Yan, I'll go take Di Cunxin. Let's follow the elders' instructions and take him through the initiation procedures. We'll know if he's a good person or not after we take him through the process."

Ning Yunmiao nodded and said, "Junior brother has no bad intentions, you should be careful of the emperor's intentions."

Lei Che smiled and spread out his five fingers, saying: "Fellow Daoist Yun Miao, don't think I am usually kind, but that is only to my fellow disciples. Do you think any little guy can jump out of my palm?"

Ning Yunmiao said: "It's better this way."

Immediately, the two of them separated and left the Bipolar Sword Platform.

The leaves rustled, and the mottled shadows cast by the falling sunlight kept swaying on Song Yan's face.

A fishing rod was stuck diagonally in the sand beside him.

In the distance, the bait was gone.

But, who cares?

Suddenly, a cold voice exploded in Song Yan's ears.

"You are lazy."

Song Yan opened his eyes, only to see five exposed crystal toes facing him. When he looked up again, he was met with Ning Yunmiao's condescending gaze.

Song Yan said: "Isn't it because I have been too busy these days, learned the soul-splitting technique, and lit the life lamp?"

Ning Yunmiao was stunned for a moment, and said, "In this case, I have wronged my junior brother."

It seemed like ice one moment and like spring breeze the next.

Song Yan changed the subject and said with a smile, "Senior Sister, are you done with the observation?"

Ning Yunmiao nodded without comment, then said: "Let's go, now that the life lamp is lit, I should take my junior brother to the sword tomb to get the sword spirit."

Song Yan's expression was slightly tense, and his brows slowly wrinkled.

Ning Yunmiao asked: "What's wrong?"

Song Yan said: "Senior sister, why don't you go and check my life lamp?"

Ning Yunmiao didn't expect that the person in front of him was so careful and could discover this.

She was indeed a little worried now. On the one hand, she trusted her junior brother very much and did not think that he was a spy, so she wanted to quickly take him through the process to prove his innocence. On the other hand, she could not say much. After all, how could she reveal everything she was going to do before testing him?
While she was stunned, Song Yan had already understood something. He smiled and said, "That's right. The Life Lamp is just a basic thing. Senior Sister hopes to teach me how to use it as soon as possible."

"Thank you, senior sister."

He stood up and bowed deeply.

Ning Yunmiao actually returned the greeting, then looked at Song Yan and said solemnly: "As long as you devote yourself to the sword and don't take crooked paths, no one will dare to touch you."

The two looked at each other, and many words were hidden in the silence.

Song Yan lowered his eyes first and said, "Junior brother, your heart is on the sword."

Ning Yunmiao said: "Then Senior Sister will protect you."

"Thank you."

"I cherish this fate in the vast sea of ​​stars. What is there to thank you for? I just hope you won't let me down, otherwise, I will be the first to kill you!"

By the end of the words, the wind and thunder are fully revealed, without mercy.

Song Yan nodded and then let out a long sigh.

Now that he was here, he had to make the best of it. As he settled down these days, the shock he felt when he first arrived was slowly disappearing, and he became calm again.

The two of them transformed into rainbow light and quickly turned and walked away.

Halfway through the journey, Ning Yunmiao reminded him, "Intention comes before the talisman. The people buried in the sword tomb are all our Sword Palace ancestors, as well as some elders who deserve respect. Their intentions are intertwined, and they are also influenced by the sword tomb itself, so it is extremely suitable for our Sword Palace to practice. On this trip, no matter whose intention you have sensed, you can use it to suppress the possible turmoil of sword energy in your body when practicing the Ten Thousand Stars Furnace Art."

"Yes, senior sister." Song Yan listened patiently.

Vast Sea Region, Tianqi Sword Palace, Sword Tomb Area.
It's not dark here with crows flying around, but it's sunny and windy with blue sky and white clouds.

On the carpet-like green grass sit a number of thousand-foot-high sword monuments, which reach into the dark clouds, with wind and clouds swirling around them. Under the sword monuments, monks occasionally stop in front, some thinking hard, some closing their eyes, some happy, with different expressions.

Looking from a high place, with a slight sweep of the spiritual consciousness, one can see many such sword monuments, and there are still more beyond the end of the spiritual consciousness.

This sword tomb is actually an extremely large secret realm, covering an area of ​​at least ten thousand miles.

clatter.
The straw sandals landed on a hard cliff. Ning Yunmiao's black hair fluttered slightly. She turned her pretty face to Song Yan and said, "Just follow fate here, walk and stop. If you encounter a suitable sword intention, stop. If you encounter an unsuitable sword intention, don't be afraid of getting hurt. Once the life lamp is lit, the power in it will protect you in times of danger and help you block these small crises. This is also the characteristic of my Sword Palace."

Song Yan looked at the distance, his black hair dancing wildly, and explored with his spiritual sense, and suddenly asked: "Where is the tomb of Senior Gu Mohan?"

Ning Yunmiao looked surprised when she heard this, but she did not ask any questions. Instead, she said, "Come with me."

After a while.
The two figures landed in front of a new tomb again.

The sword monument behind the tomb is nameless, but due to the power of the bones buried in the cemetery, cracks are appearing on it.

These cracks will eventually turn into sword patterns, which contain the insights of the owner of the cemetery during his lifetime.

These insights are particularly compatible with the sword because of the sword tomb.

Gu Mohan is not a member of the Tianqi Sword Palace, but a close friend of Ning Daozhen. He is a peculiar, mysterious and powerful cultivator in the Wanjian Star Domain. It is for this reason that the Tianqi Sword Palace would travel thousands of miles to retrieve his bones and bury them here.

In the incense burner in front of the tomb, the incense burned some time ago has turned to ashes.

Song Yan looked left and right in a daze.

Ning Yunmiao understood and grabbed a handful of incense and handed it over.

Song Yan said "thank you", then took the incense, lit it, and inserted it into the furnace. He waited until he saw the incense smoke curling up the sword monument quietly and seeping into the cracks.

Song Yan was a little dazed for a moment.

Although he had never met Senior Gu Mohan, the three major opportunities in his life were all related to him.

Ning Daozhen's reminder made him completely certain that the Wuxiang Ancestor had no good intentions towards him; Ning Daozhen's token allowed him to finally jump out of the world that was about to be completely destroyed and come here. Both of them originated from the white bone fragments of Gu Mohan that were washed up on the beach by the bitter sea; and Gu Mohan's own bones later helped him to get rid of the shackles, realize "freedom", and at the same time helped him to solve the terrifying fire dragon.

Strictly speaking, because of Gu Mohan's existence, he received the grace of a reminder, the grace of saving his life, and the grace of a rebirth.

This is really humorous. The person who was the best to him and helped him the most in that world was actually a dead person, with whom he had never spoken a word and whom he didn't even know.

Cause and effect are hard to explain, but if there is a cause, there must be an effect.

Song Yan closed his eyes, knelt in front of the sword monument, put his hands together seriously, and kowtowed several times.

Ning Yunmiao looked at the young man's profile and asked curiously, "Junior brother should not have met Senior Gu Mohan before, why are you so sincere?"

Song Yan bowed and stood up.

He selectively told most of his experiences, except for his amazing wisdom and the terrifying ability of "freedom" to control and take over other people's bodies at will.

Ning Yunmiao listened to him quietly. After listening, a bit of pity appeared in his eyes, and then he sighed softly: "I didn't expect that Junior Brother had such a life-and-death experience. You and Senior Gu Mohan are indeed inseparable. What a pity."

Immediately, she clenched her fist fiercely and said, "Although the fourth-level cultivation land that has not entered the star field is barren and there are many fights, if it were not for the silent influence and secret manipulation of the Five Spirits Demon Palace, it would never be so dangerous! These evil demons are really damnable! If there is a chance in the future, Senior Sister will definitely avenge you!"

The two of them lay silently on the green grass.

The wind blew gently, the grass swayed softly, and the two people's black hair also fluttered with it.

Song Yan suddenly asked: "Senior Sister, which sword monument is best for our lineage to cultivate?"

Ning Yunmiao said: "Everyone has his own way. Different talismans, when reflected in sword cultivation techniques, have different effects. There is no best one."

Song Yan said: "Then I will understand the way of Senior Gu Mohan."

"what?"

Ning Yunmiao looked at him in astonishment.

Song Yanqi asked, "Sister, is it not possible? Since I have a connection with Senior Gu, and I have received his kindness but cannot repay him, I want to comprehend his sword intent. This can be regarded as a spiritual continuation and a way of repaying his kindness."

When Ning Yunmiao heard the word "repay a favor", her expression towards Song Yan became softer, with a hint of love in her eyes. She thought to herself, "It's not impossible, but Gu Mohan's way is not the way of swordsmanship, and he often keeps to himself. I have never heard of anyone who can inherit his legacy. Now that he has been sent to this sword tomb for care, even if he develops a sword spirit that matches the way of swordsmanship, it will be even more difficult. It is almost impossible for him to understand his way of swordsmanship."

Thinking of this, she said, "Junior brother, if Senior Gu Mohan knew about this, he would be happy. However, this sword tomb is about fate. You want to understand the sword meaning, but it may not be suitable. You can try it first. If you are not destined, don't be discouraged, walk around more. This sword tomb is extremely old, and countless strong people are buried in it. There must be a sword meaning that suits you."

After saying that, she raised her hand slightly and took out another jade scroll.

The jade slip floated to Song Yan's side.

Ning Yunmiao said: "This is the introductory chapter of the Jiexu Sword Canon. This sword canon was originally used for cultivation in the Xuanhuang Realm. It is combined with various talismans to form a unique sword domain. It should not be taken out, but this introductory chapter can help you comprehend it. You should come to the Sword Tomb often, and don't be greedy. As long as you can comprehend a trace of sword intent, we can go to the Liangji Sword Platform."

Song Yan asked: "Going to the Bipolar Sword Platform means absorbing the fire of the moon and the sun?"

Ning Yunmiao said, "There are six reincarnation pillars in the middle. You need to test your aptitude first. The aptitude is basically based on the talisman characters you have learned. Then you will be allocated according to your aptitude. Junior brother, don't ask about these things for now. Let everything take its course."

Song Yan's heart moved.

As they got along better, he gained more and more control over this senior sister's temper.

If Senior Sister was just pretending, then he could almost completely admit defeat.

But if she wasn't pretending, then Senior Sister was truly the master he had always longed for.

Senior sister is a very pure person.

He asked, and the senior sister answered.

This answer, combined with some of his sister's previous behavior, was enough to alert him, a man who had been on the brink of death for a long time, and to make some guesses, while thinking: 'What went wrong?'

Key words flashed through his mind.

"Don't take the crooked path", "Don't let me down", "As long as you feel a little sword intent, you can go to the two-pole sword platform", "Don't ask first, let everything take its course".
He closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, quietly contemplating the introductory chapter of the "Jiexu Sword Canon" while continuing to think.

'Six Paths Qualification?
The six paths are heaven, Asura, human, hell, hungry ghost, and animal.
If we divide qualifications in this way, then to which category does my "freedom" belong?
The idea of ​​taking away someone else's body doesn't seem like a good approach no matter how you look at it.

If it's not the good way, then is it the crooked way that Senior Sister mentioned?'

'Besides that, something must have happened to Senior Sister when she went to the Bipolar Sword Arena, which led to this reaction.

What could it be?
Senior sister talked a lot about Gu Mohan, but never mentioned the dragon skeleton.

Dragon skeleton, dragon skeleton.
If Tianzun is not the reincarnation of Di Cunxin’s soul, then does Di Cunxin have a reincarnation of his soul?

Although the book "Law of Dragon Burial" that the Emperor gave me is evil, judging from the performance of my senior sister, this technique is undoubtedly quite powerful.

If that piece of heaven and earth was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster, the emperor cannot escape the blame.'

"What does the emperor intend to do?"

As he was thinking, Song Yan's mind flashed with the words "Be careful of the emperor's intentions" said by "Tianzun" Yun Zhaoxuan before he left. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and grinned, but the grinning posture froze, then turned to clapping his hands, and smiled gently: "Senior Gu Mohan's sword intent is really wonderful, wonderful, wonderful."

"wonderful?"

Ning Yunmiao gave him a strange look, then said, "Don't be too ambitious, think more!"

"Yes"

More than a month later.

Song Yan suddenly said: "Senior Sister, I want to go somewhere else."

Ning Yunmiao nodded slightly and said, "Okay."

Song Yan asked again: "What if I could comprehend a few more words?"

Ning Yunmiao smiled and said, "Greedy little fellow, do you think it's so easy? If you have the ability, go and figure it out."

The following year, heavy snow fell.

But the Bipolar Sword Platform remains the same throughout the four seasons.

The two sword platforms, Taiyin and Taiyang, are connected by a long chain bridge, and the Six Paths of Reincarnation Pillar in the center is the pillar for aptitude testing.

Di Cunxin had been here with Lei Che for a long time. When he saw Ning Yunmiao and Song Yan coming, he bowed slightly and said, "Junior brother, how are you?"

Song Yan looked at his expression and the familiar address and narrowed his eyes slightly.

But before he could speak, Ning Yunmiao beside him said directly: "Daoyou Lei Che, this little guy is now practicing with you, right? Doesn't he know the rules?"

Lei Che laughed and said, "Daoist Fellow Yun Miao, are you going to fight for this?"

As he said this, he looked at Di Cunxin and said, "Cunxin, although most people in our Sword Palace judge brothers by the order in which they entered the sect and the level of their realm, there are other situations. This is the case now. I am a peer of Daoist Yun Miao, and Xiao Song is Daoist Yun Miao's junior brother. Logically, you should call me Junior Uncle."

The emperor remained calm, bowed again, and said, "Greetings, Junior Master."

Song Yan immediately returned the greeting and said, "It shouldn't be like this, but etiquette cannot be abolished."

Ning Yunmiao nodded with a smile.

Di Cunxin and Song Yan, who were greeting each other, looked at each other, with bottomless darkness hidden in their eyes.

The emperor said in his heart, "Uncle Master, since you are here, I will perform a magic trick for you later."

Song Yanhui read out: "What trick?"

The emperor said to himself, "I will teach you a trick that will bring you eternal damnation."

While the two of them were communicating with each other, Lei Che said, "Okay, now it's time to test your aptitude. You go first, Cunxin. When you step onto this sword platform for the first time, your aptitude among the six paths will naturally be revealed.

Let me be frank. If it is the Way of Heaven, the Way of Asura, or the Way of the Human World, then it is fine. But if it is the latter three, don't blame me for being rude.

Originally, our Sword Palace would not ask where it came from, and would only ask for the sword in the future. However, this time, the dragon skeleton was eaten, and combined with the "Dragon Burial Law" and the Five Spirits Demon Palace, if it is still the latter three, then it is very likely that it is a spy from the Five Spirits Demon Palace.

This is a different time, and we can’t be blamed for this situation.”

The moment the last sentence came out of his mouth, Song Yan suddenly pieced together the whole incident.

Tianzun said that the emperor deliberately did many things secretly, so it was very likely that he was a clone or a reincarnated soul. He practiced the "Law of Dragon Burial" and then defected to the Five Spirits Demon Palace.

This time the emperor came here intentionally, naturally he was to be a spy.

With the information support from the Five Spirits Demon Palace, he certainly knew about the aptitude test, so he had already made arrangements.

There must be no problem with his qualifications.

And what about your own?
There must be a problem.

Even though the emperor did not see what his natal text looked like, he could still sense the evil in it, and felt that he possessed the body of Meng Po and the thoughts of the poisonous dragon.

Of course, if he had died in the previous Star Raft Market, then naturally the "Law of Dragon Burial" would not have been explained, and there would not have been many subsequent events.

But since he is not dead, then the Emperor must have set a trap here on purpose, wanting him to be the scapegoat.

By then, no matter how much Ning Yunmiao tried to protect his shortcomings, the facts were before him and Ning Yunmiao would be powerless.

Unfortunately, his profound wisdom had already granted him extra power in the Sword Tomb.

While he was thinking about it, Di Cunxin had already flown and landed on the Liangji Sword Platform.

Suddenly, the heavenly light on the Six Paths of Reincarnation Pillar flashed and fell on him.

Lei Che had no expression on his face, nodded slightly, and then said coldly: "Song Yan, you go."

Song Yan turned his head and glanced at Ning Yunmiao.

Ning Yunmiao nodded encouragingly to him.

Song Yan took a deep breath and stepped forward.

Suddenly, the light of the hungry ghost realm on the six reincarnation pillars flashed and descended.

Ning Yunmiao frowned and bit her lip.

Lei Che's expression was grim.

The emperor was filled with regret.

And at this moment, the light of the Heavenly Path on the Six Paths of Reincarnation Pillar began to light up.

The three of them were stunned.

The disciples who were practicing on the sword platform were stunned.

The elder who was observing secretly was stunned.

But this is not over yet
Then, the Shura Path, the Human Path, the Hell Path, and the Animal Path all lit up! !
The young man stood in the six paths of reincarnation, and the six paths roared together.
