Chapter 391: Spirit Sword Sect—The Spirit Sword Daoist was stunned

"Do you want to go in and try it?"

"The Five-Colored Salamander had a black line on its head; it didn't want to go in. At a glance, this formation was clearly not simple—it could sense the danger inside. If it really went in, it would likely be a one-way trip. It's not an idiot; why would it do such a stupid thing?"

"It shook its head, shook it violently, kept shaking its head."

"\"Look at you, you're so eager to go in—I can't not satisfy you. \""

"Having said that, Chen Chuyang directly threw the Five-Colored Salamander in, not giving it a chance to speak."

"\"Ahhh. \""

"Soon, the salamander's miserable screams, curses, and resentful cries came from inside the Nine Dragon Formation."

"He greeted Chen Chuyang's family, all eighteen generations of ancestors, without exception, greeting them all."

"The miserable cries were utterly miserable; Chen Chuyang sat outside, recording the Nine Dragon Formation's power, as well as the reaction of each pillar, the power it could erupt, and where improvements were needed—he overlooked nothing, noting every response of the formation and whether it timely attacked those inside."

"Every situation must be considered before entering; if… the formation shows a flaw, what should be done?"

"Just like that, five days passed."

"Inside the Spirit Sword Sect."

"Elder Xinran looked at her senior brother ahead, hands clasped behind her back, gazing forward."

"Pure white clouds were beneath her feet, above the mountain peaks, she passed through the clouds."

"As far as the eye could see, there were only clouds—nothing else but clouds."

"A ray of sunlight fell, shining on the Spirit Sword Daoist's body; he was like a sword piercing the sky."

"Yet no sword qi emanated from him; standing there, he resembled a sword."

"Elder Xinran bowed and said, \"Xinran greets her senior brother. \""

"The Spirit Sword Daoist turned around, his face breaking into a smile."

"\"Junior sister has come; please sit, no need for formalities. \""

"\"This time, junior sister went out and reaped great gains; her sword qi is under control. It seems senior brother should congratulate junior sister on further progress—in the future, becoming a Sword Immortal is not impossible. \""

"It seemed like teasing, but it was genuine congratulations."

"Elder Xinran said anxiously, \"Thanks to senior brother's years of care, junior sister has caused senior brother trouble. \""

"The Spirit Sword Daoist waved his hand: \"No need to worry; we are senior and junior siblings—there's no need to say such things. Protecting the junior sister is the senior brother's duty. \""

"Saying this, he reached out; Elder Xinran fully cooperated, extending her right hand."

"The Spirit Sword Daoist placed his hand on Elder Xinran's wrist, probing her condition, ensuring the sword qi inside Junior Sister Xinran's body had not run wild, was very docile, and had long since lost its previous violent and terrifying state."

"All was under control, moving with Junior Sister Xinran's thoughts; the Spirit Sword Daoist checked again, confirmed it, then released his right hand."

"\"Your body's sword qi has been completely resolved, junior sister—congratulations. \""

"\"Congratulations, congratulations. \""

"Elder Xinran did not dare to underestimate herself; in the entire Spirit Sword Sect, only the senior brother before her was someone she dared not speak loudly to. As for others, Elder Xinran would not give them face, nor speak politely—if they disagreed, they'd fight it out; the victor's word is truth, while the loser should just go home and cry."

"In the past, Elder Xinran always used this method, which never failed, thereby establishing her reputation in the Spirit Sword Sect."

"This time she returned, many watched her, hoping she would die outside, also hoping she wouldn't recover—thus the Spirit Sword Sect would have one less madwoman, and they could… vie for that position."

"Spirit Sword Sect—Elder Xinran has suffered long."

"\"I don't know who is so capable as to be able to help you suppress these terrifying sword qi. \""

"Those sword qi, even he cannot resolve, can only help suppress them a little."

"Suppression is ultimately not a long-term solution; in the end, it will still erupt."

"The longer the suppression, the fiercer the eruption."

"This time descending the mountain, the Spirit Sword Daoist was not optimistic about junior sister, thinking she would return empty-handed."

"After all, inside the Sealed World, those people's strength is limited; they cannot possibly solve this problem unless they leave this world, then abandon all their own sword qi, restart cultivation from scratch—only then would she have a chance to climb the peak again."

"But junior sister, with a stubborn temperament, refuses to give up."

"She threw a tantrum and went down the mountain, leaving for a long time; the Spirit Sword Daoist naturally had to keep an eye on her, for if this junior sister erupted, wouldn't that invite disaster.'"

"As for the sword qi inside this junior sister's body, how powerful it is—no one knows better than him."

"He had been watching her since she went down the mountain; however, this junior sister clearly knew how to shake him off in a few moves."

"From then on, no news of this junior sister was ever heard again."

"Upon hearing she had returned, the Spirit Sword Daoist immediately summoned junior sister, inquired about her condition, saw that her body was fine, the sword qi still present, obedient and compliant, under junior sister's control—the previously worried‑about issues were now gone."

"All problems solved; junior sister's strength will soon increase rapidly."

"Within a few years, the strongest person in the Spirit Sword Sect may change."

"\"Longshe Shan. \""

"The Spirit Sword Daoist narrowed his eyes—indeed, that was the case."

"Most of the people inside the Sealed World he knew; in the eyes of the strong, only other strong ones exist."

"Few of those strong ones earn his acknowledgment; those strong ones remain within their own spheres of influence, unwilling to leave or act rashly, making it unlikely they would lend a hand to Xinran."

"As for Longshe Shan, there's no problem—that mountain, that person, is very mysterious, with little information; the Spirit Sword Daoist naturally knows Chen Chuyang, that person who suppressed Longshe Cheng, with several consecutive incidents occurring there; everyone else died, only this person remained alive."

"Those from Tianwai descended twice, both dying in Longshe Cheng—one can only say it's outrageous."

"The Spirit Sword Daoist had not failed to look into Chen Chuyang's affairs; helplessly, his information was too scarce—only some basic materials exist, nobody else knows, and the people of Longshe Cheng still live in the past, in the world where Chen Chuyang was still an ordinary person, unable to break free."

"\"Did Chen Chuyang help you resolve it? \""

"The Spirit Sword Daoist was somewhat surprised."

"Elder Xinran nodded: \"Not bad, this person is quite good—heaven-defying talent. Senior brother, wouldn't you want a disciple to inherit your mantle? \""

"The Spirit Sword Daoist's eyes narrowed; being able to hear the four words 'heaven-defying talent' from junior sister's mouth shows that Chen Chuyang's talent is immense."

"Know that the Spirit Sword Sect's strongest talent, in junior sister's eyes, is also trash and garbage."

"\"Is his talent really that high? \""

"Brother, it's higher than you think. Putting it this way, Junior Sister's talent is nothing before him." Xinran Zhanglao didn't exaggerate at all, reporting truthfully: "How old is that kid? Do you know? Brother."

The Spirit Sword Daoist nodded and said: "Just came of age."

Yes, it's that outrageous—his current strength is not inferior to Junior Sister's, and he has also learned Junior Sister's Heart Sword Dao.

"What!" the Spirit Sword Daoist exclaimed, looking at Junior Sister in disbelief.

Xinran Zhanglao continued: "He even created his own Heart Sword Dao based on Junior Sister's Heart Sword Dao, suited to himself; Junior Sister can master her Sword Dao thanks to this kid's help—such talent, Brother, aren't you moved?"

If our Spirit Sword Sect had him join, the Sect's long-held wish would be right before our eyes.
