After the competition, Chen Yin and his master said goodbye to Qing Meiniang and went for a walk in the back mountain alone.
Birds were singing and springs were gurgling. Two people were walking one in front of the other, and no one spoke.
“…I thought you were already very strong.”
The master suddenly spoke in a relaxed tone: "But it seems that I still underestimated you."
"If I have this kind of strength, maybe I don't need to worry so much about the thirty-day heavenly tribulation."
There was not much happiness on Chen Yin's face, he was just a little silent.
"Why, you're still unhappy, brat?"
The master turned around, reached out and pinched Chen Yin's face, forcing him to smile.
"Don't worry too much. Maybe you won't need the third sword at all."
"With the power of your two swords, even if the giant in golden armor, Jiazi, comes in person, it will be enough to deal with you."
Chen Yin asked back, "What if someone taller than him comes?"
The master stopped talking.
The atmosphere suddenly became solemn.
In fact, Chen Yin did not lose the battle just now.
However, even with his two swords in hand, he could not do anything to his master who possessed both the Great Dao of Time and the Great Dao of Life and Death.
The Avenue of Time plus the Avenue of Life and Death can be described as immortality.
So, because there was a rare suitable venue, Chen Yin also wanted to try whether he could use the third sword.
however.
Failed.
In other words, Chen Yin stopped halfway through.
It’s not that he can’t use it.
The Changming Sword can no longer hold on.
This sword left by the Immortal Lord was already riddled with holes during the last thirty-day heavenly calamity.
When he fought with the silver-armored soldier Ding Chen that day, he had only used his full strength in the second strike of the sword and it was already close to the limit of what the sword could endure.
Now, after thousands of years, the spiritual energy of this sword has dissipated a lot. Even if I pick it up again, it may not have the same power as before.
Perhaps the second sword could still be endured.
But with the third sword, Chen Yin only infused the sword intent from the beginning into it, and the entire void began to tremble along with Chang Ming.
That feeling is completely unbearable.
Chen Yin had a premonition that if he had stopped a step slower, the Changming Sword might have become a piece of scrap metal by now.
But if he couldn't use the third sword, he would lose one of his trump cards. This made Chen Yin feel a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that Chen Yin remained silent, the master suddenly kicked him on the butt.
"Okay, look at what you look like."
"Don't worry, even if the sky falls, your teacher will hold it up." She raised her head proudly, "Your teacher can do anything!"
Chen Yin looked at her and reached out to lift her up.
"Can you kiss me now?"
The master flapped his short legs and stretched his neck to try to kiss Chen Yin's lips, but he couldn't reach them after trying for a long time.
In the end, she became so angry that she pouted and bit Chen Yin's wrist viciously.
"If you can't kiss my mouth, can't you kiss somewhere else?"
"You're biting, not kissing."
"It's all the same. They've all been touched by mouth."
Chen Yin lowered his head and looked down at her, and the master also raised his little head and stared at him angrily.
In the end, it was Chen Yin's voice that softened first.
“…No matter what the Avenue of Time will cost, I don’t want you to pay it.”
The puppy-like ferocity in Master's eyes gradually turned into a hum, and finally he just turned his head and whispered:
"It's fine."
"I'm used to it."
Chen Yin reached out and tapped her on the forehead, causing her to cover her forehead in pain.
"what!"
"Don't do this again in the future."
“You are a male chauvinist!” The master protested, waving her little pink fist.
"Then just assume that you are right." Chen Yin held her to his chest, as if he was hugging a furry stuffed toy with his backhand.
"If it doesn't work, I'll think of another way."
"What method?" Master looked up curiously.
"The Immortal Master said that this sword is not actually complete."
He whispered, "The Changming Sword doesn't seem to be just an ordinary weapon. According to the Immortal Venerable, the true appearance of this sword is far more than that."
"And regarding this sword...I don't know why. The Immortal Venerable has always been very secretive and refused to talk about it in detail."
“Ah, come to think of it.” The master also blinked, “When I was cultivating the Great Way of Time with the Immortal Master, the Immortal Master also told me to take good care of this sword before he disappeared.”
"Since he is so concerned about this sword, perhaps it has other secrets."
"It's just..." Chen Yin slowly lowered his eyes.
...Maybe it's too late.
It has been two thousand years since the Immortal Venerable passed away. There are many places related to the Immortal Venerable now, and even if we look for clues one by one, it is definitely not a simple and easy project.
No one knows where to look, how long it will take, or whether it can be found.
And the thirty-day heavenly tribulation is imminent.
"It doesn't matter. If it's too late, then it's too late."
The master leaned into his arms, gently nuzzled his chest with his little head, and said silently: "Even if we don't use the third sword, the people from the upper realm won't be able to take advantage of us so easily."
"It's just that... Actually, my plan for this thirty-day calamity is a little different from yours."
Chen Yin was stunned for a moment and looked down at her.
"In fact, I plan to get as many enlightened cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation to join the battle as possible."
"...Including Shen Shuanglian, Xiang'er and others." Master said seriously.
Chen Yin fell silent.
"I know you will object."
The master sighed, "The thirty-day calamity is so dangerous, it is not a wise choice to let Xiang'er and the others get involved."
"However, they have now entered the Great Purity Enlightenment, and are no less advanced than I was a thousand years ago."
"If many bronze-armored soldiers like the last time really come from the upper realm during the thirty-day calamity, we might not be able to cope with them with just the two of us."
"And if Xiang'er and the others come along, they can at least deal with some bronze-armored soldiers. Just in case."
Chen Yin lowered his head and thought for a long time, then shook his head.
"...It's too dangerous. They can only deal with bronze-armored soldiers at best, but they will have a hard time dealing with silver-armored soldiers."
“And we don’t know how much power the upper realm will mobilize this time.”
The master stared into his eyes for a long time, then suddenly stretched lazily, his eyes becoming leisurely.
"do you know?"
"Perhaps you will find my proposal a little heartless. After all, the risks of Xiang'er and the others joining the war far outweigh the benefits."
"But, in fact, in the past thousand years, perhaps this is the only thing I have changed."
"Because... a thousand years is really much longer than I imagined." Her beautiful eyes drooped slightly.
"I have lost enough in the past thousand years."
“I’ve even become numb.”
"Life and death, separation and reunion, I'm tired of seeing them all."
"So, to be ruthless, except for Xiang'er, I don't care that much whether they are dead or alive."
"…but you."
"You must survive." The master stared at Chen Yin seriously with his clear eyes.
298. Like Someone
When Chen Yin came back, it was already afternoon.
Shen Shuanglian and Xiang'er were whispering in the room. When Xiang'er saw Chen Yin coming back, she was about to greet him happily.
"division--"
But before she could finish her words, she noticed the deep fatigue in Chen Yin's eyes.
He seems to be in a low mood.
Chen Yin just rubbed their hair lightly when he passed by them, and then sat there in silence.
A person drinks tea silently without saying a word.
Xiang'er and Shen Shuanglian looked at each other.
"He...what happened?" Shen Shuanglian whispered.
"I don't know. How come you look so listless after just being out for an afternoon?"
The two of them whispered to each other for a long time, and Xiang'er took the initiative to move over and asked cautiously:
"Brother, what's wrong with you? Are you unhappy?"
Chen Yin was silent for a long time before he whispered:
"I had an argument with my master."
"Did you have a fight with that brat?" Qing Meiniang looked at Yu Ling in surprise.
"I was away for just a while, why are you guys quarreling?"
"Actually, it can't really be considered a quarrel."
Yu Ling sighed deeply, her beautiful eyes resting her head with resentment, and she pouted in boredom: "We just can't reach a consensus on whether to bring more people to the realm channel."
"I wanted to get as many enlightened monks as possible to fight against the thirty-day calamity together, but he was worried that it would just waste the lives of the people in the lower realms in vain."
Qing Mei Niang couldn't help but twitch her lips: "It really sounds like that kind of man's temper."
"He just likes to be a hero and likes to solve all problems by himself. If you ask me, Xiao Ling'er, we should break up with him and avoid being bullied!"
Yu Ling pretended not to hear and continued to say sadly: "That guy is rarely so stubborn and unwilling to give in."
"He is just too self-centered! He thinks we have to accommodate him in everything! Xiao Ling'er, let's break up with him so we don't have to suffer this!"
"I don't know if Xiang'er can convince him."
"Why should we try to persuade him? Xiao Ling'er, we can't bear this if we break up with him——"
"Besides persuading people to break up, what else can you say?" Yu Ling glared at this guy who was fanning the flames with some resentment.
Qing Meiniang muttered twice in resentment and looked at her sadly.
"But why do you have to hang yourself on this tree? There are many people who treat you better than him."
...like me!
After saying this, she blinked desperately, motioning Yu Ling to look at her.
