terrain, dozens of white-clad youths were practicing swordsmanship, their longswords enveloped in dazzling Spiritual Power, the blades cutting through the air and causing unceasing reverberations above them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far away, a group of hemp-clad youths looked on idiotically with eyes full of envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If only I could be one of them,” one hemp-clad youth said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Then I could learn and practice swordsmanship too—just thinking about it gets me excited!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dream on!” another retorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“They are disciples of the Xuantian Sect, and we are Sword Slaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could we possibly practice swordsmanship like them?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Becoming a disciple of the Xuantian Sect is easy, just follow Lin Xuan’s example!” a sarcastic voice rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hemp-clad youths burst into laughter, though all their gazes were drawn to the same spot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a forest clearing, a hemp-clad youth around sixteen or seventeen years old, with delicate features and a slightly frail body, was thrusting with a Black Iron Long Sword relentlessly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His clothes were soaked with sweat, but he seemed utterly unaware of it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Xuan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmph, with that waste?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Give him a hundred years, and he’ll never become a disciple of the Xuantian Sect!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention, among us, he’s the worst.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does he have to become a disciple of the Xuanjian Sect?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Right, I heard he tried to break through to the Magnetic Condensation Realm a while back and failed miserably, vomiting blood and even dropping his cultivation to Body Refining Third Rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hasn’t recovered since!” The voice dripped with schadenfreude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That Lin Xuan, practicing the same sword move for three months, and it’s an utterly unremarkable one at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’s probably driven himself mad with it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many spoke loudly, and Lin Xuan, hearing these words, felt a tinge of bitterness, but his grip on his sword tightened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He kept a stern expression and continued practicing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Martial Arts, Body Refinement is foundational, and reaching the Magnetic Condensation Realm is considered entry-level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by opening up the Spirit Vein within one’s body can there be hope for traveling further on the Martial Arts path.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Wang has already reached the Ninth Tier Body Refining, right?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Don’t forget us when you break through to the Mystical Realm!” Seeing Lin Xuan unfazed, the hemp-clad youths cursed under their breath and then began to flatter a nearby youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Definitely, Brother Wang could break through in two more months, and maybe then he could even become a disciple of the Xuantian Sect!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yang glanced disdainfully at Lin Xuan before saying, “It won’t take two months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In just one month, I’ll break through!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Really?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Wang is mighty…” The surrounding hemp-clad youths pandered to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Wang, why not teach that arrogant Lin Xuan a lesson?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yang had long harbored dissatisfaction towards Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He glanced at the white-clad disciples practicing their swordsmanship, estimating there was still a long rest period ahead, and then he stood up, heading towards Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The group of hemp-clad youths followed eagerly, ready to scoff at Lin Xuan’s misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Absorbed in his sword training, Lin Xuan lunged forward, thrusting his sword straightforwardly, leaving a Sword Mark with a flash of Sword Light on the tree trunk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What they didn’t know was that this single move had been practiced by Lin Xuan for three years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From that very day, he practiced this sword move daily, never ceasing no matter the circumstances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A stone flew towards the back of Lin Xuan’s head with a whistling sound, its fierce momentum alarming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan tilted his body, narrowly dodging the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stopped and looked around angrily, only to see Wang Yang and a gang of hemp-clad youths standing nearby, looking for trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, not bad on dodging!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did you manage that?” Wang Yang said with a grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What do you want?” Lin Xuan clenched his longsword tightly and asked in a deep voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had he been a moment slower, his head would have been pierced, creating a Blood Cave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He bore no grudges against these people, yet their attacks were so vicious!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I heard you’ve been practicing a sword move for three months, must be quite powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let’s see it,” Wang Yang urged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan gave them a cold look, remaining silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What, scared?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or are you saying you’ve practiced for three months and it’s got no effect?” Wang Yang laughed boisterously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Wang, show him how it’s done, let him see how formidable you are!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kid, let me show you what true swordsmanship is!” Wang Yang took a step forward, a fierce aura bursting forth from him like a dormant volcano ready to erupt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As expected from the Ninth-Level Body Refinement, just his aura is making me uncomfortable!” Several of the hemp-clad youths exclaimed in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Yang sneered, drew his fine steel sword, flourished it in an arc, and then thrust it towards Lin Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The hemp-clad youths widened their eyes, wanting to witness Lin Xuan’s helpless defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were tired of this misfit; they were all Sword Slaves, so why was he acting so high and mighty?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Xuan sighed, his pale hand gripping the black sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the next moment, his eyes turned exceptionally fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drawing the sword, rising, thrusting the sword, and sheathing it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All happened in the blink of an eye.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time everyone gathered their wits, Lin Xuan had already sheathed the Black Iron Long Sword, standing coldly tall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Impossible, this can’t be happening!” Wang Yang turned around in horror, finding a lock of his hair had been cut, and there was a cut on his neck from which blood was slowly seeping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd inhaled sharply, astonished that Wang Yang’s Ninth-level Body Refinement cultivation could be defeated by Lin Xuan’s Third Rank, and with a single move at that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who exactly is this Lin Xuan, and what swordsmanship has he been practicing?” Everyone wondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s happening here, what are you all crowding around for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking to rebel!” A sharp voice suddenly cut through the murmurs.\u003C\u002Fp>",1017,"2026-06-06T00:46:40.739Z","novelbin.me","c25a512881b8b49f76ae8dcc52b21c28899dcd9268e93c368ce95a6b6256c754","inverse-sword-mad-god-chapter-2",null,1795,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Finverse-sword-mad-god-cover.jpg"]
