The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 273 Refining the Void
"These people are here for the magic sword. Li Yan, you should find a way to leave Jiuhua Mansion as soon as possible, otherwise, when the powerful Hedao masters behind them arrive, it will be troublesome!"

Patriarch Qingya sent a telepathic message with an anxious tone.

Naturally, his flying speed is not as fast as that of Qu Rui and the other two powerful Void Refining masters.

Only after Li Yan told Qu Rui and the other two that he had pacified Xuejiu Cave did the Qingya Patriarch finally arrive.

As soon as he arrived, he used telepathy to inform Li Yan to leave Jiuhua Prefecture as soon as possible.

Li Yan turned around and smiled at Qingya Patriarch, saying in his mind, "Master, don't worry. I already know what's going on."

Upon hearing this, Patriarch Qingya was immediately certain.

Since Li Yan already knew the purpose of these people's visit, there was no need for him to remind them what to do next.

Li Yan had originally thought about leaving Jiuhua Prefecture temporarily.

After all, Jiuhua Prefecture has now become the focus of the Taiyi Sword World and is at the center of the vortex.

With his strength at the Spirit Transformation Stage, it was still too weak.

However, after he entered the Blood Dove Cave, he relied on the Mo Yuan Sword to exterminate the Blood Dove Clan inside, and thus obtained the Blood Dove Clan's treasures.

The Blood Dove Cave Heaven is a seventh-level cave heaven, which not only contains many high-level mineral veins, but also a large number of high-level natural treasures.

As the alien tribe that controls the Blood Dove Cave, the Blood Dove Clan naturally has many treasures, including high-level black iron that can be used to forge spiritual treasures, and spiritual medicines that can improve the cultivation of high-level cultivators.

After Li Yan got the elixir, he directly refined it in the Xuejiu Cave, and his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.

Now, it has only been a little over a month since he stepped into the Blood Dove Cave.

He has already broken through to a great realm and his cultivation has reached the middle stage of the Refining Void Realm.

And after he broke through to the Void Refining Stage, he had already comprehended and practiced all the Sixth-Rank Sword Techniques that Qu Rui had given him.

His current sword realm has already reached the sixth realm, the perfect state where the sword intent reaches the divine.

Li Yan's strength increased greatly, so he changed his mind and decided not to go anywhere else.

After all, the spiritual energy of the heaven and earth in Jiuhua Prefecture is more than enough for his cultivation. Going somewhere else would be more troublesome.

"With my realm of the middle stage of Refining Void, I am already able to use the full power of the Mo Yuan Sword."

"Even if you are a Mahayana practitioner, as long as your comprehension of the law has not reached the ninth level, you don't have to worry at all."

During this trip to Xuejiu Cave, Li Yan understood many secrets of the Taiyi Sword Realm.

At the same time, he already had a clear understanding of his current strength.

He finally understood why the sword art was so prosperous in the Taiyi Sword Realm.

Because most of the laws of the Taiyi Sword Realm are related to swordsmanship.

At the sixth level of swordsmanship, one begins to get a glimpse of the principles.

To enter the realm of swordsmanship, one needs to comprehend a sword law to a certain level.

A sword practitioner who has achieved perfect sword intent controls power at the level of the fourth-order law.

This is similar to the authority of the Heavenly Dao in the real world.

However, the sword principles cultivated by the sword cultivators here are not bestowed by heaven. They belong to themselves and cannot be taken away by anyone.

"The Law of Sword suppresses the Law of Ten Thousand Daos, so it is extremely difficult for a Law Cultivator to reach the same strength as a Sword Cultivator and comprehend the Law of Ten Thousand Daos."

Li Yan himself is at the level of Ten Thousand Dao Laws and is about to reach the tenth level.

Moreover, what he practices are the laws of the world, and he has a strong tolerance for the laws.

It was not difficult for him to comprehend the principles of swordsmanship.

Now he has only comprehended the sword principles to the fourth level, which is not his limit, but the limit of what he can comprehend at his current level.

Only by breaking through the realm of Hedao can one comprehend the more profound principles of swordsmanship.

However, his natal flying sword, Mo Yuan Sword, does not have such restrictions.

After the killing law in the Mo Yuan Sword was integrated with the sword laws of the Taiyi Sword Realm, it has now become the innate divine sword of the Taiyi Sword Realm.

The sword contains the ninth-order killing sword law, but due to the limitations of the material of the Mo Yuan Sword itself, it can only exert the sword law level comparable to the peak of the eighth order.

After Li Yan reaches the Void Refining Stage, he can use the Mo Yuan Sword, which contains the eighth-level peak sword principles, with all his strength.

With his strength, he has already reached the top level in the Taiyi Sword Realm, comparable to a seventh-level sword master in the Hedao period.

In the entire Taiyi sword world, a seventh-level sword candidate can dominate the world.

Become the sword master who is the guardian of the top sword sect in a continent.

Li Yan's current strength is even stronger than the strongest person in the top sword sect.

So naturally he didn't need to go anywhere else.

If someone really wanted to snatch the Mo Yuan Sword from him, he would also like to know how powerful the other party is.

"Does Senior Li really mean what he said?"

After a long while, Qu Rui heard Li Yan say that he had wiped out the Blood Dove Clan, and then he asked with a look of awe in his eyes.

In his eyes, Li Yan was only at the realm of refining emptiness.

Even though his sword skills are at a high level, as a sixth-rank sword candidate, he can kill aliens in the Hedao period.

But it is definitely impossible to destroy the entire Xuejiu Cave.

"Unless... Li Yan's sword realm has reached the perfection of sword intent and become a sixth-level sword master, then he will have the opportunity to achieve this step."

Sixth-level sword master!

Such a being is no less powerful than an ordinary sword cultivator.

Moreover, it is more difficult to cultivate than practicing the Hedao sword.

Enter the realm of perfect sword power and become a sixth-level sword master.

He didn't even dare to think about it.

As long as he can reach the realm of great success in sword intent, he will prepare to break through the Hedao period, practice the seventh-grade sword technique, and become a Hedao sword practitioner.

As for achieving the perfect state of swordsmanship, this is something only the top sword practitioners can consider.

Li Yan told the three that Xuejiu Cave Heaven had been pacified by him.

If the news was false, how could it be concealed?

Qu Rui and the other two were well aware of this, which is why they were extremely shocked.

Therefore, there is only one possibility left, that Li Yan is not the sixth-rank sword candidate as he expected, but a sixth-rank sword master who is destined to become a seventh-rank top swordsman.

Such strength and talent are enough to establish a top sword sect on one's own.

Only top sword masters like their sect's founder can be on equal terms with him.

Unexpectedly, they would meet here.

"Let me go in and take a look first!"

Chi Hui still had doubts in her heart, so she leaped and flew into the space entrance of Xuejiu Cave.

Li Yan raised his eyebrows but did not stop him.

Since he decided not to leave, he naturally had to show off his own strength a little, so as to prevent various forces from causing trouble for him for the Mo Yuan Sword.

After a while.

There were ripples at the entrance to the space, and Chi Hui's figure jumped out from it.

She bowed to Li Yan with awe in her eyes and said, "Senior Li is indeed very powerful. The alien race in the Blood Dove Cave Heaven has indeed been destroyed."

There is only one entrance and exit to the Blood Dove Cave. As soon as she entered, she saw countless corpses of Blood Dove tribe members at the entrance.

Among them, there were even more than a dozen corpses of powerful Blood Dove Clan members, who were still emitting a powerful aura, lying quietly on the ground.

According to her, these dozen or so powerful men of the Blood Dove Clan are all cultivators comparable to the Hedao realm.

But now they died together.

She naturally knew what this meant.

Although Qu Rui already had some guesses in his mind, he still took a deep breath after hearing Chi Hui's confirmation.

As expected! Fortunately, he had previously represented the Wuhui Sword Sect and made friends with the Qingya Sect.

When Li Yan breaks through the Hedao realm, he will definitely be able to help the Wuhui Sword Sect escape from its predicament.

At the very least, it can at least crush the arrogance of the Eclipse Moon and Lei Sha tribes.

"If you want to go to Xuejiu Cave Heaven, go ahead."

"But I can remind you that what you are looking for is not in there."

"I still have to go back to my cave to practice, so I won't disturb you."

Li Yan had just finished speaking and was about to leave.

Suddenly I heard two voices in my ears.

"Senior Li, wait a minute!"

Chi Hui and Ruan Tao spoke hurriedly.

"Oh? What else do you want?"

Li Yan turned his gaze and looked at the two of them.

The two of them looked nervous and said in panic, "Reporting to the senior, when we were searching for the magic sword in Qingya Sect, we had some misunderstandings with Qingya Sect. Please forgive us, senior!"

"Um!?"

Li Yan's eyes flashed with sharpness when he heard that, and his sword intent suddenly burst out.

In an instant.

Chi Hui and Ruan Tao felt that their consciousness was like being on a small boat on the ocean and suddenly encountered a violent storm, as if their boat would be blown into the sea at any time.

"This sword intent... is indeed that of a sixth-rank sword master!"

"It even feels more powerful than the sword power of my sect's founder!"

Chi Hui and the other person looked pale and even felt a little suffocated.

"Did you hurt anyone from my Qingya Sect?"

Li Yan's eyes were cold as he questioned the two of them.

Chi Hui and the others quickly replied, "We dare not, we have not harmed any of your disciples in the slightest!"

Li Yan's eyes flashed, and then he restrained his breath.

"Tell me, what did you do?"

At first, he thought that Chi Hui had killed the people of Qingya Sect in order to search for the magic sword, so he came to him to apologize.

If that's not the case, then why do these two people look like they are facing a great enemy?

Seeing this, Qu Rui couldn't help but say, "Let me tell you something. In order to search for the magic sword, they completely demolished some places in the Qingya Sect, but they did give compensation."

"Although they have made mistakes, they are all top sword sect elders in Beizhou after all, and they have fought with my Wuhui Sword Sect against the invasion of the Dongtian alien race."

"I hope Senior Li can spare them both for the sake of our Wuhui Sword Sect."

Although Qu Rui was somewhat disdainful of Chi Hui and the others, after all, they were the elders of the top sword sect in Beizhou.

He also didn't want Li Yan to come into conflict with the two top sword sects, Huiyue Sword Sect and Zhanlong Sword Pavilion, because of some trivial matters.

So he stepped in to mediate.

"Since Elder Qu has spoken, you can just restore the places in my Qingya Sect that you destroyed to their original state."

The sword techniques that Qu Rui gave to Li Yan saved Li Yan a lot of trouble.

Now that Qu Rui has spoken, he naturally has to give Qu Rui some face.

"Thank you, Senior Li, and thank you, Fellow Daoist Qu!"

Chi Hui and Qu Rui were very grateful to them.

If Qu Rui hadn't spoken, they felt like they would have been skinned alive if not dead.

Especially Chi Hui, she saw the miserable state of the powerful Blood Dove Clan members in the Blood Dove Cave, and also felt the tyrannical swordsmanship and murderous intent left by Li Yan in the Blood Dove Cave, and determined that Li Yan was a cruel person.

If it weren't for Qu Rui, she would really be afraid that Li Yan would get angry and kill them both.

This is a strong man who slaughters strong men like slaughtering dogs. How could they possibly escape?

But she was indeed wronging Li Yan.

The sword-wielding murderous intent that Li Yan retained in the Blood Dove Cave Heaven was left behind by activating the Mo Yuan Sword.

Li Yan integrated the law of killing into the Mo Yuan Sword. Even after being tempered by the Taiyi Sword Realm, it was still extremely ferocious.

In addition, Li Yan slaughtered the Blood Dove Clan with the Mo Yuan Sword, and the sword-wielding murderous intent he left behind was naturally extremely terrifying.

"Since Senior Li has forgiven you, you must repair Senior Li's cave as soon as possible!"

Seeing that Li Yan had already forgiven Chi Hui and the others.

Qu Rui then spoke and stated that Li Yan’s cave had also been demolished by Chi Hui and the others.

He was afraid that if he said it directly, even the Wuhui Sword Sect's face would be lost.

Li Yan felt funny in his heart.

After Qu Rui said that some places in Qingya Sect were destroyed, he had already used his divine sense to investigate and found out that his own cave was also destroyed.

But he was not a cruel person. If a cave was destroyed, he would just build a new one. As long as no one was hurt, it was a trivial matter in his opinion.

"We'll do it right away!"

Chi Hui and the other person looked nervous and immediately flew to the back mountain to prepare to rebuild the cave for Li Yan.

They had a lot of high-level materials on them, enough to build a new high-level cave for Li Yan, which would definitely be many times stronger than Li Yan’s original cave.

Li Yan watched the two of them leave without stopping them.

After seeing the two of them leave, Qu Rui asked cautiously, "Senior Li just said that there is no peerless sword in the Blood Dove Cave Heaven. Could it be that Senior Li already knows where the sword is?"

Li Yan's eyes flashed, and he nodded: "Fellow Daoist Qu has done me some favors, and I will not hide it from you, the magic sword you are looking for is actually my natal flying sword."

Li Yan knew that he had the Mo Yuan Sword and it was impossible to hide it.

As a native swordsman of Jiuhua Prefecture, no one would reply if he said he didn't know where the magic sword was born.

Fortunately, he had gained a lot of benefits in the Blood Dove Cave Heaven and had already broken into the Void Refinement Stage, becoming one of the top sword masters in the Taiyi Sword Realm. So there was no need to hide the fact.

Qu Rui was shocked when he heard this.

He came here on orders to find the sword, but he didn't expect that the sword already had an owner.

But think about it, with Li Yan's strength and being in Jiuhua Prefecture, how could he miss the magic sword.

"It turns out that it was obtained by the senior!"

Qu Rui sighed.

It was naturally impossible for him to snatch the sword from Li Yan. Even if the founder of their Wuhui Sword Sect came here, he might not have a chance.

Li Yan's strength has already reached the top level in the Taiyi Sword Realm, so he is naturally qualified to control the divine sword.

"Senior, as a person from my Northern Continent, it is also a blessing for my Northern Continent that you have obtained the divine sword."

"But I have something that I hope you can agree to. If you agree, even if it is the seventh-level sword technique, as long as you don't pass it on to others, I, Wuhui Sword Sect, can offer it to you with both hands."

"Oh?"

When Li Yan heard this, his heart suddenly moved and a look of interest appeared in his eyes.

He has already reached the middle stage of the Refining Void stage, and it won't be long before he can reach the Hedao stage. Naturally, he needs to prepare the seventh-grade sword technique in advance.

"Fellow Daoist Qu, please feel free to speak."

Upon hearing this, Qu Rui said solemnly: "I hope that Senior will take out the magic sword in the future to help our Wuhui Sword Sect and drive the Eclipse Moon and Thunder Blade tribes back to their own caves."

"These two tribes are very powerful and have been causing chaos in our Northern Continent for many years."

"The reason why my Wuhui Sword Sect wants to obtain the divine sword is to drive these two alien tribes back to the cave heaven."

"Since you have obtained the divine sword, please help our Wuhui Sword Sect!"
