Fairy, why bother with me? I am really a yellow-haired villain.

The Queen of Disaster!

Su Xiaoxiao subconsciously felt a sense of fear. She grabbed Yun Zhonghe's sleeve tightly, hid behind him, and looked ahead with frightened eyes.

Yun Zhonghe also stared at her with a sullen expression.

The Queen of Disaster had no intention of taking action.

Besides... she was just a wisp of consciousness that had awakened, even worse than Xingbu's remnant soul.

Yun Zhonghe boldly pulled Su Xiaoxiao and passed by the Queen of Disaster.

"Your choice will lead you to a difficult path."

With her back to the Queen of Disaster, she suddenly spoke, saying slowly, "Your choice will lead you on a difficult road. If you shouldn't save her, her misfortune will invisibly be transferred to you. Can you bear what she carries?"

Yun Zhonghe paused slightly, looking thoughtful.

He noticed that Su Xiaoxiao beside him was also looking at him nervously, her eyes full of worry. Yun Zhonghe smiled calmly: "It doesn't matter."

These three words were short and powerful, and both Su Xiaoxiao and the Queen of Disaster were moved.

"This way..." The Queen of Disaster couldn't help but mutter to herself, then she slowly turned around and ignored it, "I hope you can do it."

Without any more words or any attempt to stop him, Yun Zhonghe continued to move forward with Su Xiaoxiao.

Yun Zhonghe took Su Xiaoxiao and walked forward with his back to her.

Chapter 319: Sword Dao

"Can you do it? You are a swordsman in the Nascent Soul stage, but how come you can't even repair an exit from the illusion?" Mu Jixue's voice was not polite at all.

In the blood pool illusion, Mu Jixue and Xia Linglong were busy repairing the exit of the illusion.

"If you can do it, go for it. If you can't, don't bother!"

Although Xia Linglong's tone was firm, her hands did not stop moving at all.

She was too lazy to argue with this white-haired loli. She was even more anxious than Mu Jixue.

Just now, due to the fluctuation of the Yunzhonghe Sword Avenue, the exit was closed. They had no idea what was happening outside.

Every second spent here makes people feel uneasy.

The sword energy that Yun Zhonghe had just poured out had disrupted all the laws of the exit barrier. Although the great Dao of Sword contained in this sword energy was very thin, it could even only be regarded as the breath of the great Dao.

But even so, when Yun Zhonghe's sword energy got stuck on the barrier, it made it difficult for the laws around the barrier to recover normally, just like a foreign stone hitting the water, causing ripples that could not calm down for a long time.

If you want to reopen the exit, you must first release the sword energy containing the breath of the Great Dao from the barrier.

However, although Xia Linglong was a Nascent Soul sword cultivator, her level of swordsmanship was far from perfect. It was only under the guidance of Yun Zhonghe that Xia finally stepped into the threshold of swordsmanship.

Therefore, even if this sword energy only contained a trace of the aura of the great way of sword, it would still be difficult for her to break and release it.

Xia Linglong tried her best to sense the aura of the Great Dao that was stuck in the exit barrier, trying to find a clue to crack it.

The more she understood, the more frightened she became.

How did Yun Zhonghe activate the great way of sword?

She knew very well that Yun Zhonghe's swordsmanship was definitely not at the level where he could mobilize the Great Dao. Yun Zhonghe couldn't even control his sword intent... no, he probably couldn't even control his sword force...

I have to add here what sword momentum is.

Sword power is a kind of sword realm power that is lower than sword intent, and is an important cornerstone for sword practitioners to comprehend sword intent.

When a swordsman gains new insights through continuous study of his own swordsmanship and enters the threshold of kendo, he can continue to study in depth to a certain level and then realize the sword momentum of this swordsmanship.

Once the swordsman realizes the sword's power, he no longer needs to deliberately activate the sword technique. A casual strike of the sword can contain the power of all the sword moves.

As the daughter of the Xia family business, Xia Linglong has had interactions with various sword immortals and sword gods since childhood, so her vision is naturally not narrow.

She had seen too many swordsmen who had practiced swordsmanship for many years. The best among them might be able to comprehend the sword's power, but to touch the sword's meaning, or even to activate the great way of sword, was as difficult as ascending to heaven.

It is obvious that although Yun Zhonghe has shown remarkable talent in swordsmanship, that talent is far from enough to allow him to transcend sword power and sword intent and directly activate the great way of sword.

If one can master the sword skills, it will be enough to win the title of Sword Immortal and be admired and followed by countless people!

Xia Linglong saw with her own eyes that although Yun Zhonghe's sword moves were sharp, they had not reached the level of sword power.

This question left Xia Linglong baffled. How did Yun Zhonghe transcend the sword's power and sword intent to activate the great way of swordsmanship?

You know, that is a realm that even countless sword gods dream of!

Who exactly is Yun Zhonghe?

Moreover, when examining the aura of the great way of sword contained in the sword energy, Xia Linglong discovered a puzzling phenomenon.

Although Yun Zhonghe had attracted the aura of the Great Dao of Sword, he obviously lacked sufficient control over this power. He just roughly threw out the aura of the Great Dao without any precise use, otherwise he would not have disrupted the surrounding laws to this extent.

Xia Linglong had a terrible headache. She felt as if everything she had experienced today was tearing her originally solid worldview apart bit by bit.

First, there was the mysteriousness of Madam Basha, then there was the sudden outburst of Junior Sister Su Xiaoxiao, and now it is Yun Zhonghe's sword path.

I always feel like they are not from the same world as me.

but……

While comprehending the aura of the Great Dao, Xia Linglong couldn't help but become distracted, and the figure of Yun Zhonghe appeared in her mind.

The memory of Yun Zhonghe risking his life to save her in her desperate moment was deeply engraved in her mind, making her heart beat fast. She seemed to have a special feeling for Yun Zhonghe.

This confused her greatly.

I clearly like Junior Sister Su Xiaoxiao, but now Junior Brother Yun Zhonghe's figure is like a lingering brand...

She was so distressed, because she was obviously not a playboy!

Of course, Xia Linglong was well aware that the situation was urgent and she couldn't afford to be distracted at all, but she just couldn't control herself. She felt speechless that she could still be distracted at such a time.

But there was really no other way. Junior Brother Yun was a kind person. Not only did he save her life, he also showed extraordinary talent in swordsmanship. They also shared the same hobbies, and he was actually quite good-looking...

"How is it? How long will it take to finish it?" Mu Jixue's anxious voice interrupted Xia Linglong's thoughts.

Mu Jixue was already getting impatient. Her heart was on Yun Zhonghe, and she was getting anxious waiting: "Now is not the time for you to calmly comprehend the aura of the Great Dao!"

Xia Linglong was startled. "I know, don't rush me. If we don't handle the aura of the Great Dao here properly and the exit is permanently closed, we'll be in real trouble. We must be extremely cautious!"

Mu Jixue rolled her eyes: "Maybe a pat will be enough, who knows."

People who practice Taoism will carry a large number of magical instruments and treasures with them. Sometimes the instruments and treasures stop working properly or the spiritual power is not in good contact, and they may be able to return to normal by tapping them.

Xia Linglong's face turned ashen in an instant.

Could this be the same situation? This is the aura of the Great Dao. How can it be solved by just patting it?

If they don't handle it properly, they will stay in this illusion for the rest of their lives.

Moreover, even if it is a magical weapon, the idea that it can be cured by just patting it is actually a wrong idea.

It's totally unscientific.

Just when Xia Linglong and Mu Jixue were still worrying about the barrier, suddenly, there was a rapid and heavy bang coming from outside the exit. The sound was like something heavy was hitting the exit barrier with all its strength, shaking the entire space as if it was trembling.

The two women were stunned for a moment, and Xia Linglong was so nervous that cold sweat broke out on her palms.

The opponent's strength was so great that every collision caused the remaining aura of the Great Dao on the exit barrier to tremble slightly, as if it could collapse and disintegrate at any time. Xia Linglong's heart suddenly rose to her throat.

Shit! What's going on? Who's up to something out there? If this aura of the Great Dao collapses and destroys the entire barrier, we're doomed!

However, before Xia Linglong could call out to stop it, the aura of the Great Dao that was stuck in the barrier actually began to loosen!

Xia Linglong closed her eyes nervously, not daring to look directly at the impending disaster.

However, nothing happened.

The aura of the Great Dao was like a wisp of smoke, drifting silently in the air, without the expected scene of bursting out with terrifying power.

Seeing this, Mu Jixue rolled her eyes speechlessly. She glanced at Xia Linglong coldly, thinking that she had wasted her precious time: "Sure enough, a pat will fix it. What were you doing just now?"

Xia Linglong widened her eyes in disbelief.

Really just take a shot and it's done?!

Why? It doesn't make sense!

This was simply unbelievable, but soon, Xia Linglong remembered something.

The reason why she didn't dare to touch the aura of the great way of sword was because her master had taught her so.

She once followed her master to Xizhou, and their destination was a battlefield where two ancient sword masters had fought. There, every inch of land was marked with sword marks from the battle between the two ancient sword masters. Even after a thousand years, the sword energy containing the breath of the Great Dao still remained.

Her master's goal was to let Xia Linglong comprehend the aura of the great Dao left by the two Sword Masters, so as to improve her sword realm.

At that time, Master's tone was extremely serious, and he warned Xia Linglong not to touch these auras of the Great Dao easily.

Although every Sword Master mobilizes the great way of sword, the way each Sword Master uses it is as unique as their swordsmanship.

These remaining auras of the Great Dao have also been adjusted by the Sword Masters. If they are not touched in the correct way, these auras will be like enraged beasts, causing powerful backlash. In mild cases, the victim will be seriously injured, and in severe cases, the soul may even be destroyed.

However, the aura of the great sword that Yun Zhonghe had just left behind was completely different, and it did not backfire.

This is because Yun Zhonghe's aura of the Tao has not undergone any adjustments at all. It is the most primitive and simple aura of the Tao, and therefore the most stable.

Thinking of this, Xia Linglong's doubts disappeared and she suddenly understood.

Yun Zhonghe's swordsmanship had not reached that level at all. He just happened to borrow a trace of the lingering effect of the Great Dao of Sword, and did not use any ability or power of the Great Dao of Sword.

This also made her feel slightly relieved. If Yun Zhonghe was able to use the great way of sword at such a young age, he would be like a god descending to earth and becoming a saint.

But even so, even if one could violently release the aura of the Great Dao, it would be enough to cause an uproar in the entire world of cultivation.

If... if all this could be over, then the Immortal Alliance would definitely come to investigate everything. If Yun Zhonghe's background were to be exposed, it would probably cause quite a stir and trouble.

Xia Linglong fell into deep thought. After all, she was the daughter of the Xia Trading Company. Her vision and level were far beyond that of ordinary people. Therefore, the issues she considered were more profound and thoughtful.

She thought of the recent turbulent situation in the world of cultivation and the assassinations of many powerful Yuanying masters. This meant that it was not just the Chen family in Tianhai City, but the entire world of cultivation might be hiding many undiscovered potential demon cultivators.

In such a turbulent period, a young and promising genius like Yun Zhonghe would undoubtedly become the main target of the evil cultivators. If his background were exposed, he would likely bring about unnecessary fatal disaster.

Yun Zhonghe has done her a favor, so Xia Linglong will definitely want to protect him.

Mu Jixue, who was standing by, always saw Xia Linglong in a daze from time to time, as if she was lost in some kind of contemplation. This made her frown slightly, and she inexplicably had an illusion in her heart that "I feel like this guy wants to steal my things."

Mu Jixue called out "Hey", once again waking Xia Linglong from her thoughts. Xia Linglong came back to her senses in a daze, her eyes still a little dazed.

"What's next?" Mu Jixue looked at Xia Linglong and asked, "Since the aura of the Great Dao has dissipated, the laws surrounding the barrier should have returned to their original state. Why hasn't the exit opened yet?"

"Wait a moment..." Xia Linglong dragged out the last word and was still organizing her words. However, at this moment, several rapid knocking sounds were heard outside the exit barrier.

Chapter 320: Brother Yun, Please Be Gentle in Punishment

With a crisp shattering sound, a hole was forcibly opened in the exit barrier.

A pale face peered in from the hole.

Mu Jixue and Xia Linglong were so frightened that their hearts were in their throats.

It’s Chen Leling.

Chen Leling's skin was pale and bloodless, and her sudden presence was exactly the same as the scene where Sadako crawled out of the TV. The two girls hugged each other tightly and let out terrified and sharp screams.

Chen Leling showed a puzzled look on her face:?

She had clearly been torn apart by Madam Hachisha before, but now she seemed to have fully recovered. The thin white clothes on her body became clean and tidy, without a trace of blood.

It turned out that after Madam Bashi was killed by Su Xiaoxiao, Chen Leling also successfully broke free from the blood pool and used her self-healing ability to restore her broken body.

Just now, she was the one who forcibly broke open the barrier at the exit of the illusion from outside.

When she finally caught a glimpse of Mu Jixue and Xia Linglong in the illusion, Chen Leling howled with excitement, then stretched out her claws towards them.

Mu Jixue's scalp suddenly began to tingle and she felt fear. After all, it was the first time she saw Chen Leling and she knew nothing about her situation. She thought she was a female ghost that crawled out from somewhere and wanted to catch her.

Mu Jixue subconsciously wanted to use her spiritual power to strike back.

Xia Linglong, on the other hand, reacted quickly and recognized Chen Leling. She immediately calmed down and stopped Mu Jixue: "Wait a minute, she seems to be... one of us."

Mu Jixue:?

Xia Linglong was not sure either, but Yun Zhonghe said so when she and he were struggling in the blood pool before, and Chen Leling was sunk to the bottom of the blood pool by Madam Ba Chi in order to save them.

When Mu Jixue learned that Chen Leling was Yun Zhonghe's partner, she fell silent.

Then she glanced at Chen Leling's magnificent breasts and long legs, which made people bow down to her. She didn't think there was anything strange about it.
