"Go all out!"
Ye Chen did not pull out the Demon Slaying Sword. He merely stood there, and a faintly discernible sword aura locked onto Lan Xianer. It was different from other people's sword aura. Ye Chen's sword aura contained softness within hardness and hardness within softness. Under the lock of this sword aura, Lan Xianer felt a subtle sense of fear for the first time, and her hair stood on end.
"What level of sword aura is this!"
Lan Xian'er knew that if she did not make a move now, she would not have the courage to do so. Ye Chen's strength was beyond her imagination. The Ye Chen that her sister Lan Xin'er spoke of was not as strong as the Ye Chen in front of her. No, it was not even half as strong. Facing Ye Chen, she felt that she was full of flaws and was full of danger.
"Wind God Leaves!"
Lan Xian'er immediately used her ultimate move. Her figure flashed, and a blazing red light slashed out. This red light seemed overbearing, but in reality, it was extremely agile and ethereal. It was like a fallen leaf in the autumn wind. Any breeze could change its trajectory, making it difficult for the opponent to guard against it.
"Good move, but it's better to be more pure."
With a ding sound, sparks flew everywhere. Ye Chen blocked the sword.
"Hurricane Divine Fire!"
Using the power of Ye Chen's sword, Lan Xian'er's body shot up into the sky. In the next moment, she swooped down in an even more ferocious manner. Her red sword swept out, and a strong scarlet hurricane swept across the world. It was powerful, but if one really thought that this move was overbearing and rough, they would be wrong. Ye Chen clearly felt that the scorching hurricane sword aura contained countless vortexes. They grew and multiplied endlessly, advancing wave after wave. Once one fell into this hurricane sword aura, they could only passively take a beating, as if they were trapped in a swamp.
"Good move."
Ye Chen didn't retreat, but advanced instead. His figure flickered, directly cutting into the hurricane sword Qi. However, what made Lan Xianer alarmed was that Ye Chen's figure was like a ghost that didn't seem like a human's body. There was no gap in between, and he forcibly passed through. As he passed through, the hurricane sword Qi was like a wave that had been split apart, spraying to the sides.
Ding!
Metal and iron clashed, and the red sword in Lan Xian 'er's hand flew out of her hand. Then, Ye Chen's sword was pointed at the space between her eyebrows. It was clean and efficient, without any hesitation.
Lan Xin 'er, who was watching from the side, was dumbfounded. Her sister had been defeated without any suspense. Compared to her sister's sword technique, Ye Chen hadn't used any powerful sword technique at all. He seemed to have completely seen through her sister's sword technique's flaw and then magnified it to the limit.
Lan Xian 'er's expression changed several times as her treasured sword was knocked away.
Clang!
Sheathing the Demon Slayer Sword, Ye Chen said, "There are actually no flaws in your sword technique. However, in the end, everything has to be simplified. You should develop in the direction of simplicity and not rigidly adhere to the form. Once you achieve the goal of simplifying and returning to complexity, you will have new insights." There was no difference between complexity and simplicity.
One was acquired, and the other was innate. They were used to verify each other. When your sword technique was incomparably simple, it could move towards complexity and change. When it reached the limit of complexity, it could become simple, and then continue to be complex … It was an endless cycle, with almost no end. Of course, the further you went, the more difficult it would be, and the more powerful it would be. Destroying the world and creating the world would only take a single thought.
"Please guide me on my sword technique."
Out of the expectations of Ye Chen and Lan Xin 'er, Lan Xian' er suddenly bent down and begged Ye Chen for guidance.
She was not her sister, Lan Xin 'er. After sparring with Ye Chen, she knew how terrifying Ye Chen was. Perhaps in the previous exchange, he had only revealed a trace of his ability. The killer move, Hurricane God Fire, was invulnerable in her eyes. Even Prince Jinghong had to rely on absolute strength and speed to break it. However, in the eyes of Ye Chen, it was so fragile that it could not withstand a single blow.
The mysterious swordsman in front of her had completely conquered Lan Xian 'er's heart. She knew that if she did not ask Ye Chen for guidance today, she would regret it for the rest of her life.
"Sister!"
Lan Xin 'er had just recovered from the shock, and her expression immediately froze. In her impression, her sister was a person who looked tough on the outside but was soft on the inside. She was swift and decisive, sometimes very stubborn, and very opinionated. She had never thought that her sister would throw away her pride and ask Ye Chen for guidance.
Ye Chen smiled bitterly. The other party's action had stunned him for a moment.
Forget it. It doesn't matter if it's one less or one more.
"Does your Lanye family have a place for forging swords?" Ye Chen did not reply directly.
"Yes. Our Lanye family is a family of swordsmiths. We have dozens of swordsmithing courtyards. I will arrange the best one for you," Lan Xin 'er said.
"Thank you. During this period, if I have time, I will come here to give you some pointers." Ye Chen could not waste his time on the two of them. He could only occasionally give them pointers.
"You agree?"
Lan Xian 'er's face lit up.
…
The swordsmithing courtyard that Lan Xin 'er arranged for Ye Chen was one of the three great courtyards of the Lanye family, the Earth Fire Courtyard. Of course, the courtyard was mainly used for resting. The place for forging swords was a thousand meters below the courtyard.
The Firebird Star was a fire-attributed star. The temperature and purity of the Earth Fire were very high. After being processed by the Flame Gathering Array, the Flame Amplification Array, the Flame Purification Array, and the Flame Condensation Array, the flames produced were as red as blood. They could melt almost any top-grade metal without any effort.
Ding Ding Dang Dang!
Having found a suitable place, Ye Chen started to forge the great sword day and night, without sleeping or resting.
However, Ye Chen did not just casually forge top-grade swords. He planned to start with top-grade swords of the metal and water elements. Because he had already perfected the metal and water profound, the success rate should be much higher. The higher the success rate, the more profit he would make after recovering his costs.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed.
Ye Chen walked out of the scorching hot ground. What made him dumbfounded was that Lan Xian 'er and Lan Xin' er were sitting on the grass in the courtyard. From their posture, it seemed like they had been sitting there for many days.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Chen said helplessly.
Lan Xian 'er said seriously, "Waiting for Young Master Ye to come out."
"When I come out, I will inform you. There is no need to waste a lot of time here," Lan Xian 'er said.
"If we don't even have this little bit of patience, we are not worthy of Young Master Ye's pointers. As for wasting time, I don't think so. Waiting will make our hearts more peaceful. It is not like we will not gain anything."
"Then let's begin! Miss Xin 'er, let's start with you. "
Ye Chen promised to help Lan Xin 'er modify the dream.
"Okay."
Lan Xin 'er nodded excitedly.
This modification took three days. This was not because the modification of the dream was difficult, but because Lan Xin 'er could not understand Ye Chen's modification. Fortunately, Lan Xian' er had been training with her. After three days, Lan Xin 'er gradually mastered the new dream and improved significantly.
When it came to Lan Xian 'er, Ye Chen did not help her modify the sword moves. The other party's sword moves were self-created and could not compare to the ancient sword techniques that Lan Xin' er had obtained from the mysterious mystic realm. No matter how good the modification was, it would only treat the symptoms and not the root cause. If the modification was too good, it would become Ye Chen's sword moves and not Lan Xian 'er's.
Therefore, Ye Chen only pointed at Lan Xian 'er's weak points.
For example, the most basic swordsmanship.
Do not underestimate the basic swordsmanship. Any powerful swordsmanship was made up of the basic swordsmanship. It was just like the entire world was made up of energy particles. The better the basic swordsmanship, the better the foundation. It was like a skyscraper. If the foundation was not solid, the skyscraper would have safety problems. It could not be built higher or stronger.
Before entering the Sword World, Ye Chen's basic swordsmanship had already reached perfection. No one in Elysium could compare to him. After entering the Sword World and seeing countless kinds of swordsmanship, Ye Chen's basic swordsmanship had reached the pinnacle. It was not an exaggeration to say that even the swordsmanship of the Snow Sword Of Gojoseon and the Star Sword King was very immature in Ye Chen's eyes.
At the beginning, Lan Xian 'er did not think much of Ye Chen's pointers. She thought that he was looking down on her. But after one day, Lan Xian' er was completely convinced. The ordinary basic swordsmanship in Ye Chen's hands was like a god. It was to the point of turning something rotten into something magical. For example, when she did not use any True Yuan, will, or sword power, a simple stab was ten times stronger than hers. It was clearly the same amount of power.
"Basic swordsmanship can allow you to truly understand the way of the sword and understand how to control the sword energy. Don't think that comprehending the profoundness is everything. In fact, profoundness is also a way of using power."
Before forging the sword, Ye Chen said a sentence that was easy to understand to Lan Xian 'er. As for how much she understood, that was not something he could control.
"Sister, what do you think Young Master Ye's background is? Why do I feel like he knows everything? There are no secrets in his eyes."
Looking at Ye Chen's back, Lan Xian 'er came over.
Lan Xian 'er said, "There are countless geniuses in the universe, like stars in the sky. There are also many geniuses of the way of the sword. There will always be a few geniuses who walk in front of everyone else and understand mysteries that others do not. Young Master Ye is one of them."
…
Time flowed like water. There was no turning back.
It was already the last few days of the third month.
In the depths of the Earth Fire Courtyard.
"In three months, I've scrapped four swords and forged two defective ones. However, I've also succeeded in forging two swords."
Two swords floated in front of Ye Chen. One was gold with a tinge of blue, filled with a masculine golden aura. The other was blue with a tinge of ink. The body of the sword seemed to contain a vast ocean.
When forging a supreme grade treasure sword, even a supreme grade swordsmith's success rate was not very high. A fifty percent success rate was already a top supreme grade swordsmith. A thirty percent success rate was a rather famous supreme grade swordsmith. Although Ye Chen's talent in sword forging was not inferior to his comprehension of the way of the sword, his foundation was still shallow. His success rate was only above ten percent.
The treasure sword with a tinge of gold with a tinge of blue was a metal attribute sword. It was a low-grade supreme grade sword. Ye Chen had named it Star Cutter, meaning that it was unstoppable and tyrannical.
The sword with a tinge of ink with a tinge of blue was a water attribute sword. It had reached the mid-grade supreme grade. Its name was Vast Ocean. The sword's power was vast and endless.
