After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

"Use me." The sword spirit girl rested her chin on Shi Yan's shoulder.

She stretched her slender neck forward, as if trying to perfectly integrate the lines of her body with Shi Yan's.

Those empty eyes stared straight at the "Soul of the White Fox" in front of them.

Since... a mistake has already been made, since... a start has already been made, there's no need to restrain yourself so much anymore.

At most, it will just dissipate.

Before Master Shiyan left the "Sword Tomb," he also wanted to become a sword in her hand, to be held in her grasp, so that "I can cut down everything in front of you."

Shi Yan gripped the sword spirit girl's hand tightly.

The sword spirit girl's figure transformed into a sky full of swirling sword energy, and a soft jade sword was held in Shi Yan's hand.

Unlike before.

This jade sword is quite long, about four feet long, and its sharpness is fully exposed.

The "White Fox Soul" instinctively sensed something was wrong. It pressed its body down and then lunged at Shi Yan with all its might. The "White Fox Soul's" bright red eyes stared straight at Shi Yan, using its once invincible charm spell.

It's too late now.

The sword intent soared into the sky.

"Snow falls on the Tianshan Mountains in May; no flowers bloom, only cold remains."

With a single sword strike, the world changes color.

The rust-red wilderness seemed to be covered in white snowflakes.

"Sword energy stretches across thirty thousand miles, a single sword's light chills nineteen continents."

Shi Yan had already appeared behind the "Soul of the White Fox".

One sword is enough.

From afar, a group of sword cultivators dressed in blue lotus patterns, who had been preparing to approach because of that sword intent, all froze in their tracks upon seeing that sword strike.

"Why..."

Why would 'he'...?

"The sword that cleaves Loulan."

That's clearly... a closely guarded secret of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

Part 68. Senior Sister: I feel offended. [First Update]

A rust-red wilderness.

Broken sword fragments were stuck in the ground, crookedly.

The drifting white snow renders everything in the world as dreamy and hazy as a fairy tale.

Long Taoyi, the inner disciple leading the Qinglian Sword Sect's sword cultivator team, stared blankly at Shi Yan's figure in the distance, his mouth slightly open, but unable to utter a sound.

He reached out and forcibly captured a snowflake with his sword intent.

Just a fleeting moment...

Sword energy crisscrossed his palm, leaving a long, narrow bloodstain, and blood slid down his hand.

"Senior brother!!!" Qi Bi immediately stepped forward nervously.

Long Taoyi simply waved his hand, silently clenching his bleeding right hand.

Every snowflake is a sword's edge.

"There's no mistake..." He looked at Shi Yan's figure as he sheathed his sword with a complicated expression, his voice almost hoarse.

"This is... the sword that cleaves Loulan."

The entire group of sword cultivators from the Azure Lotus Sword Sect suddenly stopped, each one silently looking towards the other side of the wilderness, their expressions almost solemn.

In the wilderness, the figure of the 'young man' danced gracefully.

Although somewhat delicate, she even resembled a woman.

But... the fierce sword intent was fully revealed.

The Supreme Sword Master, Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

The entire family are sword cultivators.

The sword's aura is so powerful that it can slay all demons and evil spirits.

Among them... the "Slaying Loulan" sword is an absolute secret of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

It is said that a thousand years ago... the Lord of Loulan fed the demon with his own body, transforming into a demon lord for a lifetime, who could almost be called the strongest enemy of mankind.

In the end, it was an immortal who descended to the mortal realm and fought the Lord of Loulan for countless days and nights before finally killing him.

That battle was a devastating one, with countless lives lost and corpses strewn across the battlefield.

White snowflakes drifted down, covering the entire world.

The immortal ancestor of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect was saved by that immortal, who taught her everything he knew, including... the "Slaying Loulan" technique.

The "Lotus Separation Technique" practiced by Master Heyan also includes "Lotus Separation Technique (Qi Refining Realm)," "Lotus Separation Technique (Foundation Building Realm)," "Lotus Separation Technique (Crystallization Realm)," and so on... They are different.

There is no simplified version of "Zhan Loulan".

The earliest secret manuals were all like this, relying entirely on individual talent and comprehension.

Currently, only the Sect Master and the Senior Sister of the entire Qinglian Sword Sect have successfully comprehended the "Slaying Loulan" sword technique.

But right now...

The young master of the Shi family actually used "Slaying Loulan" right in front of them.

Then I thought about the rumors about the teacher's words.

"Rumor has it... that Shi Yan, the heir of the Shi family, practices the secret sword technique of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect, the supreme swordsmanship sect."

"Ten years to forge a sword."

"When the sword is drawn, its light chills nineteen provinces."

The "Hidden Sword Technique" is not exactly a secret within the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

In the past, as long as one applied, possessed the necessary swordsmanship aptitude, and met the required moral character, the Qinglian Sword Sect would allow their disciples to practice the "Hidden Sword Technique."

The "Hidden Sword Technique" does not cultivate the Tao, but only the mind.

Once the sword heart is perfected, one can directly enter the Great Dao.

But... the Azure Lotus Sword Sect has had far too many exceptionally talented predecessors die on the path of practicing the "Hidden Sword Technique".

How can one know the intent of the sword without embarking on cultivation? And how can one cultivate the sword heart without knowing the intent of the sword?

Without cultivation... their lifespan is at most a hundred years.

By the time one reaches old age and embarks on cultivation, it is already too late; even physical training becomes difficult.

In the past few hundred years, only one person from the Azure Lotus Sword Sect has successfully mastered the "Hidden Sword Technique," and that is their senior sister—

Qin Suhuai, born with a sword heart.

But... now Shi Yan actually used "Slay Loulan" right in front of them.

Now it seems that the rumor might be true.

The master said... if he is not the orphan of a disciple of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect who is away from home, then he must be related to the inheritance of immortals.

In Long Taoyi's view, it is more likely to be the former.

but--

Whether it's the former or the latter, he must report anything concerning Shi Yan to the sect's seniors when he returns.

Otherwise, you can just go to Sword Peak and find Senior Sister.

Anyway... the token he gave Shi Yan was the Azure Lotus Sword Token that his senior sister had concocted.

The eldest sister can find Shi Yan's location by following her own sword intent.

Convenient~~~

Yizhou, Shu Commandery.

Behind the Sword Peak of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

The woman, who was resting in the cold spring while hugging her smooth legs, suddenly shivered. She pulled out her right hand and placed it on her heart, covering it, looking somewhat bewildered.

It felt as if someone had hugged her from behind and gently breathed into her ear.

However, it is impossible for outsiders to set foot on this sword peak.

Sword Heart... Heavenly Sensation?

Just as Long Taoyi was still pondering Shi Yan's figure, the ground of the desolate hill suddenly began to tremble subtly.

"Excuse me, please make way..."

Accompanied by the girl's soft voice, a terrifying aura swept in from afar.

It's probably only at the Foundation Establishment stage, but... it's definitely the ceiling of the Foundation Establishment stage.

A group of sword cultivators from the Azure Lotus Sword Sect subconsciously took a few steps back, watching an adorable little girl with double buns dart past them, leaving only a trail of dust in her wake.

"Senior brother." Qi Bi subconsciously tugged at Long Tao Yi's sleeve.

“That is…” Long Taoyi was also stunned.

"A talisman against evil?"

In short, he is not a cultivator.

Moreover, judging from its aura, it was far more terrifying than the "Soul of Zhu Yan" they had encountered before.
