Chapter 53

Lady Ningguang and the others were somewhat melancholy.

The cruelty of cultivation could already be seen.

For cultivators, a hundred years is a blink of an eye, not a concept of time worth caring about.

But for ordinary people, a hundred years...

How many people in the world live to be a hundred years old?

If you don't meet it, it's a lifelong regret.

Moving forward from the square, everyone finally saw the Shushan Seven Peaks.

Or rather, they had already seen them before, but those seven peaks were too tall, and no one dared to think about them as mountain ranges.

They were simply like seven pillars supporting the sky.

Looking up, more than half were above the sea of clouds, and it was completely impossible to see how high they were.

Around the Seven Peaks were strange mountains and exotic waters.

Continuous dense forests, animals shuttling through the dense forests.

Waterfalls that seemed to rush down from the nine heavens seen from time to time.

Deep ravines whose bottoms could not be seen.

And huge lakes like mirrors.

Jiang Yan didn't introduce them, letting everyone look for themselves.

In a few years, perhaps the wild beasts would turn into spirit beasts and demon beasts.

The entire Cave Heaven would become even more strange.

Everyone was not just looking at the scenery; Jiang Yan also said that this was to take them to get familiar with the road up the mountain.

Right now, everyone couldn't fly with swords; if they were really asked to climb the mountain, they would be climbed to death.

What's more, even if they could fly without swords, they had to have a token and know the way.

Otherwise, the many arrays and flight bans Jiang Yan set up in some areas would make them crash in minutes.

Walking forward along the path Jiang Yan specially left behind.

This path was still very obvious, especially with rows of wooden fences on both sides of the road.

"Now the arrays under the Shushan Seven Peaks have not been opened; in the future, unless you have a disciple token, if you want to walk directly here, you will only be sent back to the original place by the arrays again and again; you must remember this."

Jiang Yan reminded, and before everyone could react, he led them across the final barrier.

That was a mysterious barrier like a water curtain, misty and hazy, unable to see what was inside.

But when they successfully crossed it, only an endless sword forest remained in front of their eyes.

All kinds of precious swords were inserted into the ground in a disorderly manner, and occasionally one could even see some flowing light flash by.

If one had good eyesight, one could see that those were exquisite flying swords.

This was also something Jiang Yan specially took time to re-forge last night.

Although because he didn't use much effort to refine, plus material limitations, at most they were Dharma Treasures.

But for everyone, they were already incredibly powerful weapons.

Besides, Jiang Yan would continue to build more weapons to put here in the future.

At that time, Spirit Treasures would not be a problem.

"This is the Shushan Sword Forest."

Jiang Yan smiled and beckoned, and countless flying swords flew over like flowing light, circling around Jiang Yan.

But unfortunately, the Primordial Jade Cutter became annoyed with spiritual intelligence and waved left and right to drive these flying swords away.

"However, this is something I made roughly myself last night; it can't compare to the original version of the Sword Forest."

"In the original Shushan Sword Forest, if it wasn't a Dharma Treasure, it wasn't qualified to be stored; Spirit Treasures were everywhere, and there were many Precious Treasures."

"Even if the opportunity was enough, one could awaken the Immortal Treasures sleeping within."

"The Sword Forest is not just swords, but Shushan disciples mostly use swords, so the number of swords is the largest, hence it is called the Sword Forest."

"In the past, disciples who had achieved success in cultivation could come to the Sword Forest and awaken their own natal Dharma Treasure."

"It can be considered the weapon library of Shushan disciples."

"But now I don't recommend you explore, after all, you don't even have true energy..."

As soon as the words fell, a purple-blue precious sword cut through space and domineeringly swept away the flying swords surrounding everyone.

After circling in front of Jiang Yan, it suspended in front of Miss Keqing again.

It was wrapped in some purple flowing light, and there were faint electric arcs flickering.

It was so sharp that Miss Keqing subconsciously took a step back.

But the purple-blue precious sword followed Miss Keqing closely.

It kept trembling, as if calling for Miss Keqing to hold it.

Miss Keqing was stunned for a moment, then realized that this sword had no hostility towards her.

It seemed...

It was urging her to hold it tight?

Miss Keqing was somewhat unsure, after all, this sword looked excessively strong.

It was far stronger than her own Lion's Roar.

Seeing Miss Keqing not moving, the purple-blue precious sword seemed somewhat annoyed.

A sword aura suddenly erupted and swept towards Miss Keqing.

"Miss Keqing!!"

Miss Ganyu was very anxious, and Seeing Zhongli on the side was also planning to make a move, but that sword aura was truly too fast.

In the blink of an eye, it slashed across Miss Keqing's body.

Miss Keqing was stunned. After a long while, she gently touched her waist, thinking she had been cut in two, but she seemed to be intact.

Only...

"Clang."

A crisp sound of iron falling attracted everyone's attention.

Miss Keqing looked down and suddenly felt a chill down her spine.

Her Lion's Roar, which she had always been proud of and cherished immensely, had been completely cut off.

The purple-blue precious sword suspended domineeringly in front of Miss Keqing.

Jiang Yan gave a bitter smile.

"What a domineering fellow..."

"Fellow Daoist Jiang Yan, what is going on?"

Seeing Zhongli looked at Miss Keqing somewhat worriedly and asked.

Jiang Yan sighed:

"It can be considered a good thing, but Miss Miss Keqing's Lion's Roar..."

Jiang Yan beckoned, and the purple-blue precious sword immediately restrained its sharpness and fell into his hand.

Immediately, the Primordial Jade Cutter was unhappy, flying up and down behind Jiang Yan, and more domineering sword aura erupted; faintly, it seemed to be threatening this sword.

"This was forged by me last night using a piece of mysterious refined iron from the Dark Sea, combined with a broken but still sharp precious sword."

"It is also one of the strongest weapons in the Sword Forest currently."

"Mid-grade Dharma Treasure, Frost-Blue Sword."

"As for why it wanted to cut off your Lion's Roar..."

"Miss Miss Keqing, I should congratulate you; this sword has taken a fancy to your sword body, and it wants to follow you."

40. Miss Keqing, develop towards the Wine Sword Immortal

"Follow me?"

Miss Keqing was somewhat suspicious.

"A sword... actually possesses such spiritual intelligence, and wants to follow me actively?"

"No, no! How can this sword..."

Before the words were finished, the Frost-Blue Sword shone with sword light again, sweeping across the dense bamboo forest in the distance.

The next moment, bamboo within a radius of several hundred meters, including hard stones, were all cut in two.

The Frost-Blue Sword jumped out of Jiang Yan's hand, looking quite proud as it flew up and down. ===== CHAPTER 54 =====
