Report

The Nirvana Temple was also known as the Mahayana Duoluoye Temple. A hundred years ago, it was as famous as the Garan Monastery and the Luohan Temple. It was known as one of the three major Buddhist sects in the Bei Sheng Province. It was a pity that it gradually declined. Seventy years ago, when the strange monk Tianxing took charge of the temple, he changed its name to the Nirvana Temple and became a unique sect. However, because of its original foundation, the Nirvana Temple was located in the center of the Bei Sheng Province, the Huanzhen Mountain.

After Wang Yan left the Zen Heart City, he did not delay his journey. He passed through the mountains and forests and traveled through the night. In three days, he arrived at the Jiushan Mountain, which was ten miles south of the Huanzhen Mountain. If he continued north from the Jiushan Mountain, he would reach the Huanzhen Mountain in half a day. However, there was a narrow valley between the two places. If what Ying Yu said was true, this valley would definitely be the place to set up a killing trap.

Wang Yan stood on the Jiushan Mountain and looked to the north. He said, "Guibo, I'm going to seclude myself here for a few days."

The Nirvana Temple was in sight. The purpose of this trip was about to be achieved. Wang Yan did not want to fall at the end. Wang Yan did not know much about the "Heaven Breaking Palm" Xin Luojue, but he had heard of his name. This person was known as the number one Mutant in Qiyun Prefecture. In the eyes of many players, he was an existence comparable to Bai Daoxin. No matter how strong this person was, or what he was planning to do in the Bei Sheng Province, Wang Yan knew that he was at the heart of the struggle. Even with the protection of Guibo, the players might still want to kill him. He had drawn his sword all the way here. First, he killed Rao Yu, then Yuan Tong. He killed many other famous and unknown people, which made the younger generation of the Bei Sheng Province lose face. Under such circumstances, the Pure Moon Sect was one of the top sects in the Bei Sheng Province. It was not impossible for them to send Bai Daoxin to fight him.

As for Bai Daoxin, Wang Yan did not dare to underestimate her. After all, she was an existence that could suppress Duan Henan in ten moves. Once Bai Daoxin made her move, Wang Yan knew that the chance of winning was not high. Not to mention that the current situation was complicated, and Xin Luojue was involved. It was very likely that there were players who had secretly set up a trap. This last journey was really difficult. Therefore, Wang Yan was prepared to seclude himself again in this Jiushan Mountain. He wanted to sort out all the things he had learned along the way and increase his strength as much as possible.

"Alright."

Guibo did not say much. He was also an experienced martial artist, and he knew the saying that the further one went, the more dangerous it would be. Although there were no Clasping Yuan Stage powerhouses who had interfered along the way, it was only because of the Aojian Villa's prestige. As for what schemes they had in the dark, he and Wang Yan did not know. But one thing was for sure, once the undercurrent really emerged, it would definitely be fatal.

With Guibo's support, Wang Yan did not think too much about other things. He immediately found a suitable place on Jiushan Mountain. With Guibo's protection and even taking care of all the necessities of life, he only needed to seclude himself in peace for the next few days.

.....

More than ten days passed in a flash. In a blink of an eye, it was already the end of May. The weather was getting hotter and hotter. In the Qingchuan Valley, the grass was long and the nightingales were flying. From time to time, there would be caravans coming and going. Because this place was close to the Huanzhen Mountain, there had not been any robberies for many years. Therefore, the people walking in the valley were all at ease. No one would have thought that in the maple forest ten miles east of the valley, there was a pair of eyes peeking at all the movements around the Qingchuan Valley.

"Is there any movement?"

A man dressed in nocturnal clothing, his head wrapped in a black cloth, only revealing a pair of eyes, rolled in from outside the forest. He asked the empty maple forest as if he was talking to the air. However, in the next instant, a figure floated down from a maple tree and replied, "The people who are scouting the situation outside haven't sent out any signals. Naturally, Wang Yan hasn't appeared yet."

The person who spoke was also dressed in black, but if Wang Yan was here, he should be able to tell from the voice that this person was Li Daohai, who had his throat pierced by his sword in Liangqiao Town.

As soon as Li Daohai's voice fell, another figure appeared from another hiding place and said, "Is there any news from Bai Daoxin?"

"Bai Daoxin confirmed the news of Wang Yan from Zong Wanliu. He is in the area of Jiushan. He should be in isolation, or waiting for the situation to change."

Hearing this, another person appeared from a hiding place and said, "If so, do we need to change the plan? After all, we have waited for more than ten days. We can't let that Wang Yan continue to be in isolation, right? "

"No. The terrain of Jiushan is open and accessible in all directions. If Wang Yan breaks out of the encirclement, all our previous efforts will be in vain. You should know that the person I invited can only help us distract the 'Tian Jue Sword' for half an hour. "

"Yes, we have gathered four of the Seven Masters of the South, three of the Nine Great Masters of the North, and us, the Three Links of the Central Sect. Furthermore, with Brother Xin leading the way, it can be said to be a pioneering operation that countless people have focused their attention on. Not only do we have to surround and kill Wang Yan, it would be best if we could take down the Tian Jue Sword in one fell swoop and create a classic example of hunting a high-intelligence NPC. Therefore, we cannot afford to fail, and this Nanchuan River Valley is the best place. Once the Tian Jue Sword is lured away, Brother Xin will restrain Wang Yan, and we will block the front and back. Wang Yan will not be able to escape."

"I also agree to continue waiting according to the original plan. Wang Yan has an appointment with his master in four months. In less than half a month, he will definitely appear."

As they spoke, another person appeared and said, "But I'm worried about Bai Daoxin. What if she doesn't abide by the previous agreement and directly takes Wang Yan's life?"

"That's not up to her!"

.....

Phew …

In a cave in the south of Jiu Shan, Wang Yan let out a long breath and slowly opened his eyes. He then focused his attention on the status of his Martial Arts.

Current Experience Points: 0 "

It had been almost two months since he had started his closed-door training in Cang Shan. During this time, even when he was on the road, Wang Yan did not stop cultivating. In addition, during his closed-door training in Jiu Shan, his biggest improvement was still in the Clear Void Sword Technique. After all, he had the thousand-year Polygonum Multiflorum. Under the continuous absorption of pure Xiantian spiritual energy, Wang Yan's progress had increased by leaps and bounds. But now, the spiritual energy in the thousand-year Polygonum Multiflorum had been exhausted. In the future, the Clear Void Sword Technique could only rely on himself.

Other than that, the biggest changes were his comprehension and Myriad Sword Heavenly Dipper Technique. Because Wang Yan constantly perfected the Wonder Ring Body Technique and Myriad Sword Heavenly Dipper Technique along the way, in addition to further comprehending the Way of Illusion and the Way of Formless in the Mahākāśyapa Sutra, Wang Yan's comprehension was constantly improving. With the improvement of his comprehension, his thinking and calculation speed for many things became faster. He himself did not know to what extent his comprehension would grow in the future. After a period of refinement, the Myriad Sword Heavenly Dipper Technique had already been completed. Even after Wang Yan invested all the remaining experience points, he had already broken through to the second level.

Although the grade of this self-created secret technique was not shown, Wang Yan felt that it should be a little higher than the Yellow Grade Upper Grade. Perhaps it had reached the Black Grade. After all, breaking through to the first level required 80,000 cultivation points, which was higher than the Finger Twisting Gentle Yuan Orifice Technique. However, this secret technique only had a total of three levels. After mastering each level and polishing a sufficient amount of Soft Sword Aura, it would give birth to some mysterious ways of using the Sword Aura. Wang Yan was quite looking forward to this.

However, the above three were only the cultivation changes that Wang Yan had accumulated during this period of time. His seclusion this time focused on cultivating the Yuan Orifice Technique, as well as opening up the Five Yin Origin Meridian and High Void Dragon Meridian, and integrating these two small meridians into the circulation of his martial arts Inner Qi.

The Yuan Orifice Technique was completely different from the Finger Twisting Gentle Yuan Orifice Technique and Ten Thousand Sword Heavenly Dipper Technique. The latter two were purely about polishing, while the Yuan Orifice Technique placed an extreme emphasis on comprehension. It used a special method of internal energy circulation to replace the internal energy circulation of the original martial arts Inner Qi. Naturally, it all depended on one's comprehension ability and one's own speed of adaptation. In this aspect, it was Wang Yan's strong point. Therefore, in less than half a month, he had already cultivated the Yuan Orifice Technique to the third level.

As for the Five Yin Origin Meridian and High Void Dragon Meridian, with Wang Yan's nearly ninety years of profound internal energy, it naturally didn't take him much effort to completely open up the Five Yin Origin Meridian and High Void Dragon Meridian. As for integrating these two small meridians into the circulation of his martial arts Inner Qi, this aspect completely depended on his deduction and calculation ability. With Wang Yan's current ability, it was naturally not a problem.

Thinking up to this point, Wang Yan immediately got up and casually practiced a few sword moves, and even used Sword Qi and Sword Aura. After a series of practice, Wang Yan was very satisfied. Under the effect of the Yuan Orifice Technique, the consumption of his internal energy circulation was greatly reduced. Even with the addition of the Five Yin Origin Meridian, the sword techniques he used now were more conserving internal energy than before. However, the power and speed of the sword moves were twenty to thirty percent faster than before, and there was no deviation from his original expectations.

With this in mind, Wang Yan felt that the purpose of this seclusion had already been achieved. His strength wouldn't change much even if he stayed any longer. Therefore, he slightly packed up and headed outside.

"Are you all ready?"

Seeing Wang Yan come out of the cave, Guibo, who had been guarding outside, immediately appeared. Wang Yan nodded and said, "It's time to go to the Nirvana Dao Temple."

"When you were in seclusion, Zong Wanliu came nearby. He should be investigating your situation. Looks like Bai Daoxin will make a move against you."

Hearing Guibo's words, Wang Yan's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Let her come. Perhaps I can help Master avenge his humiliation!"
