Chapter 97: Wanting to Learn Swords at Spirit Sword Mountain

~13 min read 2,473 words

"The Demon race joined hands with the human race to defeat the legacy race, and should have been on good terms for generations. Why did they later abandon the fertile Nine Provinces and move the whole race to the Northern Plains snow region, a place where grass does not grow?"

Seeing Ji You pondered for a long time, putting his attention back on this race that he had only heard of but never seen.

The Seven Great Immortal Sects in the Qingyun world are enough to make people feel troubled, and the people can't live anymore. Now that the Demon race has entered, there is another variable, and the situation will be more complicated.

Moreover, it is rumored that the strength of the Demon race is not inferior to any Immortal Sect, and its foundation is even vaguely above the Immortal Sects.

But if the Demon race had also coveted the Nine Provinces for a long time and had such huge strength, why did they retreat from the Nine Provinces without a sound at the beginning?

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi looked at Seeing Ji You: "That's not simple. Naturally, it's because they are not of my race, so their hearts must be different."

"So the Demon race was actually driven away by the human race? It wasn't as harmonious as the history books say?"

"No, you thought it backwards. The one who felt that they are not of my race, so their hearts must be different was the first Demon Emperor."

"?"

"The legacy race enslaved all things, causing the people to suffer. But who can be sure that the rising human race will not be the next legacy race? So not long after the Heavenly Dao passed the holy artifact to the human race, the first Demon Emperor knew that the general trend was gone, so he summoned all the demons in the Nine Provinces to go to the snow region, closed the country from then on, and never stepped into the Nine Provinces again."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi felt her left foot being warmed, so she withdrew it and put her white and tender right foot in his palm, her movements already very natural.

Seeing Ji You held it lightly, secretly thinking that the first Demon Emperor had great wisdom.

The Demon race moved to the snow region, the other races crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains to become the Barbarian race, and the Nine Provinces now only had the human race.

Thus, there was a split between immortals and mortals within the human race, and the enslavement of the same race.

If it weren't for this, the ones being enslaved today would be other races besides the human race.

"The first Demon Emperor also said one sentence before leaving."

Seeing Ji You looked up at her: "What sentence?"

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi looked at the chaotic laws of heaven and earth and muttered: "When the human race loses the favor of the Heavenly Dao, the Demon race will definitely return to the Nine Provinces and become the next master of the Qingyun world."

"Favor of the Heavenly Dao?"

"Not bad. The luck of the Heavenly Dao originally fell on the legacy race, then fell on the human race. Other races, even if they were ambitious, could only avoid it, because without the favor of the Heavenly Dao, they knew that no matter how strong they were, they couldn't compete, because this is the fixed number."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi raised her snow-white pretty face: "In that year, the Barbarian race practiced their physique wildly, introduced spiritual energy into their bodies, and cultivated hard. Finally, they almost broke the Cold Iron Pass and returned to the Nine Provinces, but the Northern Plains suddenly had a blizzard to block them. This is the luck of the Heavenly Dao falling on the human race."

Seeing Ji You knew that there was a saying of luck in the Qingyun world, but this was the first time he heard that luck could be bound to a race.

If so, the Heavenly Dao is truly manipulating the development of the Qingyun world.

"It seems that the Zheng family ancestor matter made the Demon race realize that there was a problem with the human race's luck."

"It could also be that it let the Demon race see the hope of no longer being bound by the Heavenly Dao."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi said and added: "In short, no matter what, the Demon race must be impatient. On the night in Ningcheng County, I used the spirit appraisal to shine into the sky and saw a majestic figure in the snow plain, which I think must be the Demon Emperor."

"It turns out that history books are truly written by the victors."

Seeing Ji You suddenly figured out one thing, which was the inexplicable feeling in his heart when he saw this history in Chen Fuzi's collection.

During the ancient war, other races fled quickly, but the Demon race wanted to help the human race resist the Heavenly Dao. It is said that there were countless casualties, and finally they retired without competing with the human race for the world.

He thought at the time, what kind of peerless good neighbor is this.

But now it seems that the Demon race and the human race were originally two insurgent armies, and there was no situation of who helped whom.

The purpose of that great war was to overthrow the brutal rule of the ancient legacy race, but the result was to establish a new race to control the world.

Finally, the Heavenly Dao chose the human race, and the holy artifact was cast into a Daoist tradition.

The Demon race knew that if they stayed, they would have to bow their heads and become ministers, so they resolutely walked towards the snow region where grass does not grow.

So the history books wrote that the Demon race helped the human race defeat the ancient legacy race.

But in fact, the Demon race at that time was just compromising, compromising with the unfairness of the Heavenly Dao.

But if the Heavenly Dao chose the Demon race at the end of the war, the one compromising would be the human race, and what the history books write now might be that the human race once helped the Demon race defeat the ancient legacy race.

Wonderful...

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi suddenly patted his shoulder: "Gone too far, back to the matter of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain."

Seeing Ji You came back to his senses, his eyes carrying inquiry.

"While the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan is rectifying the Pill Sect's name, a manifesto targeting my Spirit Sword Mountain has also been spread throughout the world, accusing my Spirit Sword Mountain and the Asking Dao Sect of colluding to besiege others in the ruins, and demanding that the Spirit Sword Mountain disciples involved go to Shengjing to plead guilty."

"But I said before, I will apologize for the injured, but Spirit Sword Mountain will never respond. If the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan wants to fight, then fight."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi was truly like a female emperor at this moment, her waist slightly straight, revealing a section of snow-white small waist, and the sword intent of looking down on the world was in her eyes.

But afterwards, the numbness from her toes made her break her momentum.

Clearly, she had just received the arrogant accusation from the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, and her heart was burning with fighting spirit, but looking down, she found that her feet were still being played with by the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan disciple.

If this were seen by the disciples under her sect, it would actually be much more serious than Spirit Sword Mountain publicly bowing to the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan.

The Little Appraisal Master is always like this. As long as she talks about topics involving Spirit Sword Mountain, her female emperor personality will awaken, and she will feel very uncomfortable with her own tenderness.

But this personality of hers had not been exposed before; it only started to be unable to be suppressed after meeting Seeing Ji You.

Perhaps it was because he was the only one she knew on the long journey of her first time down the mountain, or perhaps the fire in the meditation room on the cold day made her want to be an ordinary woman, or perhaps she missed the opportunity to stab him a few swords because of hesitation when she was pinched.

In short, this personality of hers is always unable to be hidden in front of him.

So it's better to kill him. Killing him is the former self.

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi muttered, her feet suddenly raised and stepped on his hand.

Touching is not allowed, but if it is stepping, it seems to be the Little Appraisal Master of Spirit Sword Mountain who is looking down again.

Look, your Heavenly Tian Shuyuan disciple is being stepped on by me.

The Little Appraisal Master narrowed her eyes, somewhat proud, with a trace of cunning in her arrogant eyes.

Seeing Ji You looked at her strangely, not noticing her constantly conflicting inner heart, but thinking about the relationship between the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain.

There is a possibility of a fight between the Mountain Sea Pavilion and the Chen clan, but the possibility of a fight between the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain is not great.

Because it is too far from north to south, and the strength of the two sects is too close. If they really want to make a move, it will evolve into a protracted war of attrition.

And the one who sits and collects the fisherman's profit will be the other Immortal Sects.

This is not what the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain want to see, especially at this time when the Demon race has entered and all parties are eyeing the ruins.

In short, no matter if it is the ambition of the Seven Great Immortal Sects plus the Demon race for the ruins, or the opposition between the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain, all he can do is improve his strength as soon as possible.

Just like Yan Shuyi cultivating hard because of the conflict between Heavenly Sword Peak and Profound Sword Peak, in this world today, only strength can decide everything.

Seeing Ji You broke through two realms in a row after coming out of the ruins, and his potential can be considered exhausted.

Wanting to break through the realm again in a short time is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Moreover, the Realm of Profound Understanding is the foundation of the entire Realm of All Methods. Cao Jingsong felt that his current realm was enough and advised him not to be in a hurry, but to realize the Heavenly Dao carefully at this moment.

There is a saying among cultivators that the Daoist methods are myriad, which means that the laws of the Heavenly Dao are infinite, not a determined number.

Just like there is a human Dao for being a human, a demon Dao for being a demon, a bandit Dao for being a bandit, everything in this world has a Dao.

And the Dao that can be realized in this realm will be the key to the Realm of Merging with the Dao.

So if you want to improve your strength, the realm matter cannot be rushed, and martial arts is the best entry point.

Seeing Ji You remembered Instructor Wang's words and looked at Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi who was stepping on him: "How can I go to your Spirit Sword Mountain to learn swords?"

"?"

The Little Appraisal Master came back to her senses: "Are you talking in your sleep?"

"I'm serious."

Yan Shuyi looked at him: "The sword Dao of Spirit Sword Mountain is only passed on to the people of Spirit Sword Mountain. Why don't you quit the Heavenly Academy, and I'll let Profound Sword Peak accept you? Be my sect member?"

Seeing Ji You's eyes lit up, thinking to himself that this is also fine. The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan didn't really want to accept me, this wild private cultivator who stirs up the wind and clouds. What's wrong with being a two-surname slave?

But this thought only flashed by, and then disappeared without a trace.

He is now a disciple of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and has no superior-subordinate relationship with Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi. If he really entered Spirit Sword Mountain, she would be a pure female emperor, and it would be difficult to see her "ying ying" monster personality.

Besides, with the style of the Management Hall hanging the sect prestige on their lips every day, he might be shot by ten thousand arrows before reaching Spirit Sword Mountain.

At that time, passersby walking here would definitely ask, "Eh, why is there a person growing on this pile of swords?"

"Not being a Spirit Sword Mountain disciple, is there any way to learn the Spirit Sword Mountain's natal spirit sword technique?"

"Don't forget the relationship between the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan and Spirit Sword Mountain now. If you really want to come to visit the mountain to learn art, you might be thrown out with broken legs. At that time, I won't care about you, but will just watch coldly."

"Then I'd better go to the Pill Sect to learn the Dao of alchemy."

Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi suddenly narrowed her eyes and kicked him off the cliff again.

Spirit Sword Mountain has a very heavy weight in her heart, much heavier than Seeing Ji You, a stranger she has only seen twice.

This is not because Seeing Ji You is dispensable to her, but because for more than ten years, Kuangcheng Yan Shuyi has been aiming to inherit Spirit Sword Mountain.

Even the strongest person will be influenced by the surrounding environment.

When parents, fellow disciples, and even maids are saying so, you will think this is right.

She has put Spirit Sword Mountain, or Profound Sword Peak, in front of her all her life. Even if she is close to Ji You, she will not privately teach him the natal spirit sword technique.

Disciples can betray the sect, but the Appraisal Master who inherits the Daoist tradition cannot.

"Learn the Dao of alchemy...?"

"Go touch the feet of that woman Yuan Caiwei."

Seeing Ji You looked at her vinegar-eating expression and revealed a light smile, but he was still pondering how to go to Spirit Sword Mountain to learn swords.

Might as well kidnap an elder on the mountain and force him to spit out the cultivation method.

But if he really had this strength, he wouldn't need to learn a damn sword.
