Sword Spirit
With the Luo Yun Mountain as their base, the three sects only took ten days to build their own sect grounds.
What touched the three sects the most was that Long Chen still referred to them as the Xumi Tribe.
The three sect leaders were still the ones in charge of the tribe, but Long Chen had already become the backbone of the tribe.
In the following days, Long Chen and Yan Li spent more than ten days setting up a protective spell formation. The spell formation used the supreme-grade spirit vein as the core of the spell formation.
This month was very peaceful, and the entire Xumi Tribe gradually got on the right track.
The relationship between Ye Hailan and Long Chen became closer, and the five sects had already achieved their goal of returning to the Ancient Desolate Land. Thus, no one cared about the so-called Thousand Extreme Physique anymore.
"The three-month period is the period of protection for everyone who has returned to the ancient race. However, after the three-month period is over, I'm afraid that the ancient race nearby will attack us. By then, it will be the most difficult period for us …" Long Chen said to the three Grandmasters in a low voice.
The three of them nodded. They also knew that if it weren't for Long Chen's existence, they wouldn't even be able to enter the Ancient Desolate Land. Any Li Clan Lord would probably be able to destroy them.
Everyone knew that although they had already achieved their goal of entering the Ancient Desolate Land, they would need more powerful battle prowess if they wanted to gain a foothold in the Ancient Desolate Land.
Long Chen stared at the three of them. After a while, he said, "In the next two months, pick out thirty people who are at the peak of the Return to Void Stage. It's best if they have a bloodline. I'll personally guide them in their cultivation for the next two months …"
Long Chen's powerful battle prowess and his numerous Divine Rank Martial Skills made the three sect leaders feel ashamed. It would be best if he could personally train a group of people.
The next day, Long Chen gathered thirty people at the foot of the Luo Yun Mountain.
"For the next two months, all of you will come with me to the mountain range below the Sacred Mountain. The beasts at the foot of the mountain range live there, but it is also the best place to train," Long Chen said to everyone.
The thirty people behind Jian Shisan stared at Long Chen and nodded heavily. Their eyes were filled with reverence. At this moment, Long Chen had become an existence akin to a god in their eyes.
Long Chen nodded and led everyone out of the mountain range, heading towards the foot of the Sacred Mountain.
Seeing Long Chen and the others leave, the three Sect Leaders looked at each other with worry in their eyes. They were very confident in Long Chen's strength, but it would be difficult for him to raise the combat strength of the Void Return Realm in two months.
…
After leaving the Luo Yun Mountain Range, Long Chen led the group down the Divine Mountain. They gradually realized that the closer they got to the Divine Mountain, the louder the beast roars became.
However, under Long Chen's lead, they managed to avoid all the beasts without any mishaps. Along the way, Long Chen taught them a supplementary cultivation technique called the Heaven Devouring Art.
Long Chen did not tell them the grade of this cultivation technique, but everyone's expressions changed drastically when they found out. This cultivation technique was extremely terrifying for those who possessed a bloodline.
The Heaven Devouring Art could devour the cores of beasts to increase the power of one's bloodline, and then guide one's cultivation. As long as there were enough cores of beasts and their grades were high enough, it could be said that they could directly enter the Human King Stage!
Everyone stared at Long Chen, and their breathing became heavy. Most of them were at the Void Return Realm, and some of them had been stuck at the Void Return Pinnacle Stage for a long time. If they did not encounter any opportunities, they might not be able to break through in their lifetime. Long Chen's supplementary cultivation technique was equivalent to opening up a broad path for them!
After traveling for several days, Long Chen finally stopped.
"Split up into groups of three and kill as many beasts as possible. However, all the cores of beasts must be brought here in three days!" Long Chen ordered.
Thirty people responded in unison. Immediately, they split into ten groups and disappeared into the forest.
Jian Shisan stood behind Long Chen the whole time. Long Chen stared at Jian Shisan and said, "You were born for the sword, but you don't have the power of a bloodline. For the next two months, I only have one request for you … to condense a Sword Soul!"
Long Chen's words caused Jian Shisan's pupils to contract abruptly. His cold face suddenly became excited.
Sword Soul?
Jian Shisan was obsessed with the way of the sword his whole life. Ever since he was a few years old, he had always carried a sword with him. He had long heard rumors about Sword Souls.
Jian Shisan stared blankly and said, "Is Master's words true? Sword Souls really exist in this world?"
The corners of Long Chen's mouth curled up into a faint smile. The long sword in his hand moved slightly, and the spiritual energy around his body suddenly dissipated. Immediately after, the long sword in his hand moved and slashed toward Jian Shisan.
There was no spiritual energy on the long sword. Instead, a faint green light covered it, followed by a roar of anger.
Jian Shisan was completely stunned. Long Chen's blade was already at his neck, but he didn't even have the chance to draw his sword. He could clearly feel that the long sword in Long Chen's hand seemed to have come alive.
Long Chen didn't use any spiritual energy rules. He didn't even use any martial arts techniques. Just an ordinary sword strike was actually so powerful …
"This, this is a Sword Soul?" Jian Shisan's voice trembled a little. Even his eyes were bloodshot. His excitement was beyond words.
Long Chen withdrew his sword and stood upright. He looked at Jian Shisan and said calmly, "Originally, you were only at the Void Return level. If you want to condense a Sword Soul, you have to at least step into the Way of the Virtual Entity. However, I want you to do the opposite now. First, condense a Sword Soul … Then, use the power of the Sword Soul to comprehend the rules and directly enter the Way of the Virtual Entity and even condense a Dao Body!"
Long Chen's voice was like the evening drum and the morning bell. Jian Shisan never thought that Long Chen would actually want him to step into the Way of the Virtual Entity within two months!
"In these two months, you will use the sword in your hand to travel through this mountain range. If you are unable to condense a Sword Soul, then you will not be fated with a Sword Soul in this lifetime. Shackles will also appear in your cultivation of the Way of the Sword for the rest of your life." Long Chen's two fingers continuously landed on Jian Shisan's dantian as he spoke.
The energy around Jian Shisan's body gradually weakened. Soon, his cultivation dissipated in an instant. He was only left with the power of the Spiritual Martial Arts Realm.
He did not ask for Jian Shisan's opinion because he knew that Jian Shisan would definitely agree. He knew very well what the two words "Sword Soul" meant to a person who was obsessed with swords.
In this vast mountain range, even a person at the advanced stage of the Void Return level might not be able to survive. However, Jian Shisan actually left Long Chen with a sword in his hand and stepped into the forest without looking back.
Long Chen looked at Jian Shisan's back and nodded slightly. This kind of Jian Shisan was worthy of being his disciple.
Long Chen also turned and walked deeper into the forest. At this moment, he was relying on the comprehension of the rules from his previous life, the advantages of many martial arts techniques, and his powerful spiritual energy, which was comparable to an early-stage Human King.
However, he was still at the early-stage of the Way of the Virtual Entity. The Sky-Devouring Incantation was also quite effective for him. However, his target was a demonic beast that was comparable to a Human King.
