Chapter 31: The Question is Unfathomable
-------------------------
The Sword Trial, as the name suggests, is a trial of selecting and drawing swords.
In the Sword Valley of Juejian Sect, thousands of spiritual swords of different grades are sleeping, waiting for the right person.
However, just drawing the sword is a life-and-death hurdle.
When the Sword Immortal Longyue, the founder of the Absolute Sword Sect, sealed the Seven Absolute Swords here, this place was still a mountain. But even if the Sword Immortal sealed it himself, the powerful sword energy of the Seven Absolute Swords continued to leak out. Over time, the mountain turned into a plain, and the plain became the bottom of the valley. Only one of the Seven Absolute Swords was left, replaced by another spiritual sword.
Participants in the trial need to fight while trying to form a bond with the spirit sword. The ownerless spirit swords here will fight each other and automatically release sword energy, forming a terrifying sword energy storm. The monks below the Jindan stage will be crushed into pieces by the chaotic sword energy released by the spirit swords as soon as they enter the sword valley, not to mention drawing their swords.
The sword tomb of the Phoenix Sword, one of the Seven Wonders of the Immortal Swords, is deep in the valley. The cultivator who can withstand all the sword energy, defeat other participants, and finally reach the sword tomb will be the winner.
What? You mean winning? Forget it.
In previous years, there were indeed many sword practitioners who refused to admit defeat, but this year, all the sword practitioners with a bit of fame had their tempers defeated by Song Dugu who was traveling abroad, and they just became indifferent.
Being able to obtain a magic sword passed down by the Sword Valley is already a great opportunity. Why bother to risk your life with the true disciple of the Absolute Sword Sect?
From the powerful people from all sides to the many participants, everyone has recognized Song Dugu as the leader of the sword-drawing trial.
If anyone can compete with Song Dugu, it's only...
Many eyes were focused on Xiao Wuyou. Everyone had heard of the power of Zhan Yue Zhen Chuan, but almost no one knew the depth of Xiao Wuyou.
And today, I can finally see it.
"The trial begins!"
Thousands of monks, each displaying their magical powers, rushed towards the dark sword valley like a flock of geese.
The long-dormant spirit sword was awakened by the huge noise. The originally silent sword valley suddenly heard a sharp and piercing sound, and a dazzling blade light exploded in the air.
The battle had just begun when hundreds of monks who had misjudged themselves were killed on the spot, shattered into bloody mist in the air!
No matter how profound the skills are, it will be difficult for the monks who are distracted by the sword energy to move forward.
"Xiao Wuyou! I'll go ahead and wait for you to fight in front of the sword tomb!"
Only Song Dugu took the lead, releasing his sword intent, shattering all the sword energy attacking from the surroundings, and then advancing straight in.
Next came Yang Wei and Fan Tong.
With every step the former took, he created a formation, which could block the sword energy from a distance, or even turn it into his own use and bounce it back.
Fan Tong was even more simple and brutal. His muscles bulged, his fists were imbued with spiritual energy, and he filled his body with sword energy. He punched away the incoming sword energy, making the sword practitioners around him miserable.
Among the thousands of monks, only a few hundred could barely keep up with them.
"As expected of the Absolute Sword Sect's Tianya True Disciple, at such a young age he has already mastered the One Thought Formation!"
"That Wen Tian Zhen Chuan is also amazing. With such a level of cultivation, even a Buddhist Vajra body cultivator would not be able to stand up to him!"
"However, I think that the True Transmission of the Moon Slashing is still the most likely to win."
"That's true, indeed."
There was a lot of discussion in the audience.
"Hmph, a bunch of ignorant people. Xiao Wuyou hasn't made a move yet." Liu Feiyan muttered in dissatisfaction when she heard the voices of people around her supporting Song Dugu.
"I have to agree with you on this point." Su Lanyu also nodded.
Xiao Wuyou was nowhere to be seen in the noisy crowd, but the two girls' trust in him was surprisingly unanimous.
However, at this moment, Xiao Wuyou was in the crowd, looking extremely disheveled.
Oh my goodness, this trial is too cruel! So many people died at the beginning?
Xiao Wuyou looked at the sword energy flying all over the sky and suddenly felt a little confused.
This was just the beginning, who knows how terrifying the sword energy behind will be. Xiao Wuyou decided to hide in the crowd and walk slowly, picking up a magic sword on the way. After Song Dugu and Yang Wei and Fan Tong fought to the death, he would go over and collect the heads.
Hey, I’m the planner!
But as soon as the show started, Xiao Wuyou could no longer hide.
Because the monks around him were either dead or injured, and in an instant he was the only one left in the huge crowd, which was very embarrassing.
"Look, that's the master's true disciple Xiao Wuyou!"
"How did he fall so far behind?"
"Stupid! How could he not catch up with the true disciples? This Xiao Wuyou must have some ulterior motive!"
Everyone sighed when they heard this.
"But what is he planning?" asked an honest man in the crowd.
After a short and awkward silence, the man said again: "Anyway, he has other purposes! How can we at our level understand the true teachings of the Absolute Sword Sect?"
Everyone looked eagerly at the elders of Juejian Sect, waiting for their answers.
Elder Zhan Yue was the first to retort, wondering if Xiao Wuyou was just trying to take advantage of the situation. But seeing that the Great Elder didn't say anything, he was a little unsure, so he kept his mouth shut to avoid making a fool of himself.
In fact, the Great Elder didn't know what Xiao Wuyou was planning, why was he still at the end of the team? But... thinking that Xiao Wuyou saw through the master's intention and insisted on the engagement, he didn't dare to make a conclusion about Xiao Wuyou easily.
"Is this Xiao Wuyou trying to take advantage of the situation?" the honest man spoke again.
But soon, Jiang Zuimeng smiled coldly: "Superficial."
Afterwards, she stopped talking.
"Idiot, what do you know? That is the true teaching of the leader of the Juejian Sect, it is unfathomable, how could you be so stupid!" Others spoke out one after another, scolding the honest man.
"I'm afraid that only someone like the head of the Absolute Sword Sect can guess his plan!"
Jiang Zuimeng's face froze when she heard this. In fact, she didn't know why Xiao Wuyou didn't hurry up and move forward, but hung behind the team. She just habitually helped her apprentice to reply...
"Master, what exactly is his plan?" Liu Feiyan couldn't help but ask in her heart.
Xie Fengchen was also stunned. To be honest, she was not a swordsman, so she could not see what Xiao Wuyou was doing slowly. But she was embarrassed for not helping Liu Feiyan in the forest last time. This time, she pretended to know and said calmly, "You don't understand. He is using the surrounding sword energy to sharpen his sword heart and practice hard!"
"So that's how it is. You are worthy of being Xiao Wuyou." Liu Feiyan murmured.
Su Lanyu frowned when she heard this, feeling unwilling. After all, she didn't understand what Xiao Wuyou was doing. But the daughter of the Liu family understood, so wouldn't she be at a disadvantage if she didn't understand?
"It's actually like this, you are worthy of being my senior brother!"
Jiang Zuimeng noticed that the two girls were talking to each other, and thought that since the younger generation could see what Xiao Wuyou was doing, it would be embarrassing for her as a master! So she also laughed and said, "Wuyou really has a plan."
It turns out that misunderstandings are contagious.
The Great Elder saw that Jiang Zuimeng, the salty fish leader, understood everything, so how could he not praise Xiao Wuyou? Zhan Yue Zhen Chuan saw that the Great Elder had personally praised Xiao Wuyou, so he had to praise him appropriately, otherwise it would be biased to only praise Song Dugu.
Seeing that the elders of the Absolute Sword Sect were full of praise for Xiao Wuyou, everyone followed suit and praised him enthusiastically. In the audience, the praise for Xiao Wuyou could not be stopped for a while.
"So, what's so great about Xiao Wuyou?" The honest man's voice was drowned out by waves of admiration.
Don’t ask, because asking is unfathomable.
Chapter 32: The Sword is Coming
-------------------------
Halfway through the journey, Xiao Wuyou finally took action.
Facing the sword attack, Xiao Wuyou resisted with his body. After several attacks, his clothes were cut, so he had to use the Tanxu Youlong Step to dodge and move forward.
Although his physique and body movements are amazing, he seems mediocre compared to the other three true disciples.
After all, what determines a cultivator's true strength is nothing more than his innate magic weapon and core skills, and Xiao Wuyou has not yet demonstrated these two points.
People began to wonder if the master's true teachings were just counterfeit.
But due to the admiration of the audience, no one dared to speak the truth, which made them look very ignorant...
In fact, Xiao Wuyou really had no other options.
Now that he was lucky, he thought that he was at least a key supporting actor, so it wouldn't be a piece of cake for him to draw a magic sword, right?
Not to mention the middle and upper levels, there is still hope for a Jindan stage cultivator to force a lower-grade spirit sword to recognize its master.
However, up to now, not a single spiritual sword has been willing to recognize its master!
Xiao Wuyou seemed to be strolling leisurely in the sword energy storm, at ease, but he was already cursing in his heart
No matter which spiritual sword his hand reached for, the blade remained indifferent, as if he did not exist.
"A mid-grade spiritual sword. I am lucky enough to get a mid-grade spiritual sword!"
"A top-grade spiritual sword, a famous divine weapon on the Divine Sword List!"
Seeing the monks around him drawing their swords and bursting with joy, Xiao Wuyou deeply realized what it meant that human joys and sorrows were not shared...
It's not metaphysics. Could it be that luck is needed?
If the spirit sword is willing to recognize its master, the sword spirit will give feedback according to the cultivator's spiritual energy, and only then will the cultivators go up and draw their swords.
Xiao Wuyou did the same, but this time he released a wisp of luck mixed with spiritual energy, reaching towards a mid-grade spiritual sword stuck in the ground in the distance.
There is a reaction!
Xiao Wuyou was delighted, but he saw the spirit sword in the distance trembled and fell down.
...Not really?! Brother, if you don't want to acknowledge your master, that's fine, but do you really need to fall down? It's very hurtful, okay!
Don't panic, there are so many spiritual swords in this Sword Valley, is there not one that is willing to recognize its master? !
Xiao Wuyou really tried them one by one and didn't believe it.
However, the road eventually came to an end.
"Xiao Wuyou, you are finally here!"
In the deepest part of the Sword Valley, Song Dugu, holding the magic sword Zhan Yue, stood in front of the sword tomb and smiled coldly.
"Brother Xiao, you have been dragging it out for so long, I guess you must have found a great opportunity, right?" "My opportunity is no worse than yours, today I want to see how strong your true teachings are!"
On the other side, Yang Wei stood with his hands behind his back, while Fan Tong rubbed his hands together. They each had a mid-grade spiritual sword on their waists, and it was obvious that they had also gained something.
Xiao Wuyou stood there leisurely: "Fate cannot be explained. We will know after we try it."
Yang Wei and Fan Tong looked at each other, neither daring to act rashly.
They all gained something, so what kind of opportunity did Xiao Wuyou get? !
However, Song Dugu didn't care about these. He directly took out the Zhan Yue and his cultivation exploded.
Song Dugu glanced at Yang Wei and Fan Tong with rare disdain: "What opportunity is not an opportunity? It's just a small thing. I, Song Dugu, only need to cut the moon, and I can dominate the sword for eternity!"
The silver murderous sword energy spread out like a strong wind with Song Dugu as the center.
Four high-quality spiritual swords suddenly flashed with sword light, and the sword spirits trembled, as if cheering for him.
However, Song Dugu swung his sword horizontally, forcibly refusing the four top-grade spirit swords to recognize him as his master!
"That's a famous magic weapon on the Divine Sword List, and he really doesn't care about it..." Even Yang Wei, who was pretending to be calm, couldn't help but sigh.
Damn, don’t give it to me! Xiao Wuyou felt distressed just looking at it.
Xiao Wuyou was also secretly extending his luck to the four spiritual swords, but the four swords trembled for a long time and were unwilling to recognize him as their master.
Song Dugu smiled uninhibitedly: "Xiao Wuyou, I guess you don't care about those external things either, right?"
Which eye of yours can tell? I've been longing for this...
"Yes, your swordsmanship must be the same as mine, no, even better than mine. But today, I will win, use this battle to prove my way, and take a step forward!"
Silver sword intent suddenly appeared from the blade of the Zhan Yue sword. Just by looking at it, everyone felt that their sword heart and soul were pierced.
The dozen or so cultivators who were lucky enough to follow Xiao Wuyou to the end only glanced at Song Dugu, and then their eyes bled and they retreated one after another. Even if Song Dugu was not targeting them, if they got too close, they would only be drawn into the terrifying sword intent. They had to be at least a thousand meters away before they dared to look at the sword intent.
"He, he is only in the early stage of Nascent Soul, but what is this aura?!"
There was a burst of exclamations from the audience.
Those who were invited were all knowledgeable people, but none of them had ever seen a sword genius who could condense such sword intent.
"Cultivation is no longer important." The Great Elder had expected this.
"That's right. Song Dugu of my family has already honed his own unique sword intent. Even though he is only in the early stage of the Nascent Soul, even those in the late stage of the Nascent Soul are no match for him!" Zhan Yue Zhenchuan said proudly as a matter of course.
"Is the sword intent so powerful?" Liu Feiyan was also a little panicked and asked Xie Fengchen for advice.
"That's right. Cultivation, magic weapons, and skills are just the basic skills of being a strong man. Skills like sword intent that are unique to you are enough to be considered as the trump card of a strong man." Xie Fengchen paused, and then comforted: "Your Divine Phoenix bloodline also belongs to this kind of trump card. In the future, it will not be weaker than this Zhan Yue Zhen Chuan."
