Embers of Sword

Chapter 110 Dasui Opens the Mountain

After Ruyi Ling’s conversation ended.

Xie Xuanyi's consciousness returned to the real world. The carriage was shaking, and the curtain was lifted. Frosted dead leaves fell into the carriage and landed on the tip of the little girl's nose, causing her to sneeze. But she turned over and continued to sleep soundly.

Xie Xuanyi hired a coachman and a carriage.

Heading north along Jiangning to Dasui Sword Palace, the road becomes more and more lively.

So... there are some things that Xie Xuanyi knows without Chen Jingxuan reminding him.

It was mainly the "rumors" in the Jiangning area of Nanjun, which was really noisy.

Even though Xie Xuanyi didn't care about worldly affairs, he was forced to listen to it several times.

These past few days, heading north from Lingqu City, every three or five miles, one could hear people talking about Xie Sheng, the prince of Jiangning. They talked about Xie Sheng's noble character and kindness to his retainers, and about Xie Sheng's extraordinary talent and the fact that he was superior to all other heroes... Xie Xuanyi was not unfamiliar with this name. When he topped the list of geniuses, the Xie family of Jiangning sent someone to deliver a gift, and they also hoped that he could write words on a certain sword as a gift, saying that it was a gift from the Dasui Sword Palace to the prince and the young prince.

The Crown Prince of Jiangning, Xie Sheng.

The reason why he remembered this name was because the word "Sheng" was unique.

The Xie family of Jiangning built their ancestral hall around Shengshan Mountain, and their incense has continued for hundreds of years. They are one of the three major royal families of different surnames in Da Chu and have a noble status.

After Xie Xuanyi became the young swordsman.

The Xie family took advantage of the situation to soar and regained their position as the most powerful family in Jiangning.

Later, Jiangning King Xie Zhisui established contact with the imperial city. The Dachu royal family has always been "clearly divided". For those downtrodden families that have fallen again and again and are unable to turn things around, even if the other party kowtows three times and nine times, as long as they believe that there is no chance of recovery, they will absolutely ignore them. Because of Xie Xuanyi, the Jiangning Xie family has already shown its prominence. For this old-fashioned "rich family" that only needs a little help to rise to the top, the royal family is very willing to lend a hand. The old things are gone like smoke, and the strong join forces to make peace.

In just a dozen years, the Xie family had grown to a huge scale.

The style of travel of the Prince of Jiangning is second only to that of the royal family.

Because he was born in Jiangning, Xie Xuanyi remembered the old friendship. After he reached the summit, he did not break off contact with the Xie family... He accepted the small gift from the Xie family that year, and also agreed to the return gift request of a sword with words engraved on it.

I didn't expect that.

A dozen years passed in a flash, and the young Crown Prince of Jiangning had already achieved such "achievements." Throughout Jiangning, and even throughout Da Chu, there were rumors that he had ascended to the Cave Heaven Realm at the age of seventeen, and had reached the tenth level of the Cave Heaven Realm by the age of twenty. In terms of cultivation realm, even Xie Xuanyi back then could not compare to the Crown Prince.

In just three or four years, he achieved perfection in the cave realm.

This speed is indeed amazing.

It’s just that…the faster you practice in the Cave Heaven Realm, the better.

Taoist Chihun is the best example. This great devil from southern Xinjiang had already achieved perfection in his cultivation of the Cave Heaven ten years ago. In order to pursue the strength after being promoted to "Yin God", he deliberately stagnated in the Cave Heaven realm, waiting for the best opportunity for promotion, and he has been polishing the "Avici Cave Heaven" day after day for ten years.

Once you are promoted to Yin God, the cave will take shape!

The cultivator's "cave heaven" is used to store vital energy... Once it is finalized, the scale and amount of the vital energy will also be determined.

The vast majority of geniuses rely on "Dongtian" to gradually widen the gap between themselves and others.

Think about this.

Xie Xuanyi scanned his cave again with his "divine thoughts".

This is my dying body.

Now it is a complete rebirth.

Under the watering of the Immortal Spring, the one hundred and eight major orifices emitted faint sounds of tigers, leopards and thunder.

This is nothing.

What is really "interesting" is that the Dantian position has been expanded several times.

The water drop condensed from the Immortal Fountain has a "cave space" on both sides.

My natal flying sword was seriously ill and lay quietly on my right side.

In his previous life, Xie Xuanyi's Dantian was extremely pure, and he only had one natal flying sword and a sword energy cave.

And now...

Because of the Fountain of Immortality, he seemed to be able to create another cave paradise.

No, more than one.

Xie Xuanyi has not yet figured out the specific "accommodation" limit of this Dantian, but conservatively estimated, it should be able to accommodate three caves.

"The natal artifact shapes the cave, and when the cave is established, the great way is derived."

Xie Xuanyi lowered his head and looked at the water droplets on his lower abdomen. There was not much joy on his face. Instead, he frowned: "According to this trend, if I want to be promoted to Yin God, do I have to comprehend the great Dao principles of all the cave heavens at the same time?"

The more perfect the cave is, the harder it is to become a Yin God.

Because the cave is the "seed of the Great Dao" and the "embryo of the Great Dao"!
The more powerful the cave is, the more powerful the laws derived from it will be.

This is a very simple truth: the more perfect the fruit is, the harder it is to mature.

In order to pick their own "fruits" from the long river of the Great Dao, achieve Yin God, and reach the other shore, some people choose to act hastily, seize a single opportunity, and quit while they are ahead... Others choose to endure and wait for the sake of the more distant "Yang God". Once the latter succeeds, they will certainly be more powerful, but compared to the former, the probability of failure will also be greatly increased.

And now Xie Xuanyi's "Tao".

It's different from others.

Even he himself didn't know what to do next... After reshaping the Sword Qi Cave Heaven, how to condense the second Cave Heaven.

All of this is unknown, and we can only take one step at a time.

But right now, Xie Xuanyi has more important things to do than practicing.

"Thank you..."

A delicate cry brought Xie Xuanyi's wandering thoughts back to normal.

The little girl, who had been sleeping soundly for a long time, opened her eyes, scratched the tip of her nose, and looked out the window blankly. Jiang Huang looked at the increasingly lively scene outside and whispered, "What Sword Palace are you talking about... How long will it take to get there?"

"Coming."

Xie Xuanyi said calmly: "Have you remembered everything I taught you? Review it again."

"Remember it, remember it."

Jiang Huang counted on his fingers and recited carefully: "When you go out, you should call me brother. Don't cause trouble, don't get angry easily, and don't trust strangers easily... Is that it?"

Xie Xuanyi nodded slightly.

Jiang Huang's main soul has been silent for a long time since it woke up without permission and was attacked by the Nine Death Forbidden Zone. It should have completely realized the current situation and returned to hibernation.

During this period of time, the little guy has become much more sensible.

At least I don’t call you “Dad” or “Mom” all the time anymore.

"Look, the gate of Dasui Mountain is right in front of us." Xie Xuanyi lifted the curtain of the car and motioned Jiang Huang to stick his head out.

The little guy blinked.

She looked into the distance.

In the distance, there are continuous mountains and misty clouds, which make it difficult to see clearly. All you can see are countless streams of light flying across the sky, as well as hanging treasure boats, gourds, and cattail-leaf fans.

Jiang Huang then realized that this was no longer Lingqu City near southern Xinjiang.

There were many fellow travelers beside the carriage.

As we approached the Dasui Mountain Gate, the noise became louder.

When the carriage slowed down, Jiang Huang stuck her head out, but her sight was almost completely buried by the crowd approaching. She saw a scholar holding a scroll, smiling and nodding at her, and quickly retracted her head, a little shy: "There are so many people..."

“This is the golden age.”

Xie Xuanyi smiled, stretched out his hand and touched Jiang Huang's head.

He looked somewhat emotional.

The news of the opening of Dashui Sword Palace has spread throughout the two dynasties, north and south. Many young people, warriors, mountain sword practitioners, talisman painters, etc. have all come to the mountain gate, not only to join in the fun, but also to seek opportunities, and to discuss and chat with like-minded peers... Such a grand scene, if you count carefully, has not appeared for more than ten years.

The good fortune of the North Sea tide is actually returning right now.

The words "qiyun" and "yun" are very mysterious.

Beihai Mausoleum was destroyed and the country's fortune returned without having to wait for ten or twenty years.

Because this is the "prosperous fortune" of the Da Chu Dynasty.

It was just that it was forcibly interrupted before, so it was not "fulfilled" -

Therefore, the Sword Palace closed its doors, the Taoist sect withdrew from the world, and all the major families and sects fell into desolation. The fortune of the world was blocked, and many geniuses had no way to gather together.

But now it’s different.

The news of the founding of Dasui Sword Palace was announced almost ten days after the destruction of Beihai Mausoleum.

It's hard to say whether it's a coincidence since they happened one after the other.

It's still fate.

"This time, I'm afraid it's not just the Da Chu Dynasty."

Xie Xuanyi smiled and looked at the scene outside: "If the opening time is longer... the young sword cultivators from Li Country might also come to join in the fun."

"There are so many people here, what if I get discovered?"

The little guy looked miserable.

The closer she got to the magnificent mountain gate, the more timid she became.

The towering sword-like main peaks exude a sharp aura from dozens of miles away, and there is even a magnificent bell-ringing sound that spreads all the way to the sky.

Every sound strikes directly at my heart.

The more Jiang Huang listened, the more frightened he became.

She is a demon!

Once the secret of her having phoenix blood is discovered, won't she be skinned and her soul refined by the great practitioners of the Sword Palace, and either made into a phoenix feather coat or tied up in front of the mountain gate as a guard beast?
"That's why I asked you to remember what I taught you."

Xie Xuanyi said leisurely: "As long as you do as I say, your secret will not be discovered."

Jiang Huang still had that sad and worried look on his face.

"If I wanted to harm you, why would I bring you here?"

Xie Xuanyi stretched out his palm, smoothed the little fellow's wrinkled brow, and said slowly: "Think carefully, the Tang Zhai Master I met in Li Chaojiang, is she powerful?"

Jiang Huang was stunned for a moment, then nodded like a chick pecking at rice.

Master Tang?
That’s amazing!

Although she did not see Master Tang Zhai take action with her own eyes, the powerful aura of oppression she felt at close range was enough to suffocate her for a moment.

Jiang Huang hid in the wooden basket the whole time, fearing that the other party would see her...

In fact, facing a Half-Step Yang God like Tang Fengshu.

There's no point in hiding.

Her divine consciousness enveloped the entire Lichao River.

"Just remember, that Master Tang hates the demon race. If she had recognized you, you would have been taken away from Lichao River long ago."

Xie Xuanyi said calmly, "Even in the Sword Palace, there are not many people like Master Tang."

The Nine Death Seal not only sealed Jiang Huang’s main soul.

It also sealed her evil spirit!

In order to escape the Nine Death Seals, the main soul came up with the method of "differentiation" to transform, and it was this method that made Jiang Huang's soul extremely clean and pure.

Under normal circumstances, even if Tang Fengshu's divine sense swept over, he would not notice anything unusual... Of course, if it really attracted the attention of a powerful person of this level, and he was determined to investigate thoroughly, he could still find clues.

But for no reason.

Who would doubt such a pretty and slightly silly girl?
Jiang Huang said timidly: "There are not many, but there are still some..."

"You're smart."

Xie Xuanyi said calmly, "But don't worry, just stay by my side and call me brother. If anything goes wrong, I'll take care of it for you."

"Really, brother?"

"It's true."

Xie Xuanyi responded with a smile. He lifted the curtain of the car and looked at the majestic main peak in the distance, which was as tall as a sword and pointed straight to the sky. He murmured softly in his heart.

"Da Sui..."

"I am back."
