Sword Training
At first, Xun Er was still secretly on guard, worried that Su Fang had bad intentions.
However, he had been sitting cross-legged for several years, unmoving like a boulder. Only then did he gradually believe it.
"Not good, my master is here. You have to hide outside!"
On this day
Xun Er suddenly rushed over from the outer formation, looking nervous.
Within the spell formation, Su Fang stopped cultivating and rose to his feet to look around.
"Right, go to the nearby valley. Master won't suspect you there. Let's go!"
Before Su Fang could catch his breath, Xun Er suddenly pulled Su Fang and flew out of the formation. They flew over a mountain peak and arrived at a valley shrouded in clouds, isolated from the rest of the world.
After landing, this was not a place without people. Instead, there were all kinds of grass huts, wooden houses, and some mortals walking around. Most of them were digging up the soil and weeding.
Wasn't this just a small village?
"These people are the mortals I saved. They have nowhere to go, so I made a home for them here. You can recuperate here and get along with everyone. Don't think you can bully them just because you're a cultivator. I won't forgive you!" Xun Er suddenly raised her sword and glared at Su Fang.
Then she turned and flew into the air.
A few old men came to Su Fang and brought him into the valley. "Little brother, you were also saved by the fairy. Come, we have more than a hundred people here. There are old, young, women, and children, as well as young adults. Everyone used to live in places that were attacked by demons. Our families were scattered. If not for the fairy, we would have died long ago!"
Indeed, it was as the old men said. Everyone here was a mortal. There was not a single cultivator.
Everyone met in harmony. There were no quarrels here. If the great world was the Immortal World, then this place was a small Immortal World for mortals.
Su Fang quickly merged with them, but he still found a place deep in the forest to continue recovering.
"I've already recovered 50%. I estimate that in less than ten years, I'll be able to return to my peak. Then I'll break through the eighth layer and step into the ninth layer of the Calamity Realm."
In order to not let the mortals outside disturb him, Su Fang used the Limitless Clone and formed a clone to guard outside. He would occasionally come into contact with the mortals.
After years of continuous recovery, his condition was getting better and better.
"The dog-headed rotten wood saber and the Six-Eyed Heaven Shaking Bell are both pretty good treasures. The dog-headed rotten wood saber should be suitable for me to use, but forget it. Edgeless Sword has already been destroyed. I'll have to slowly find a powerful offensive magic treasure to use."
Originally, he wanted to find a magic treasure to replace the Edgeless Sword.
Unfortunately, after searching for a long time, he was unable to find a suitable weapon among the tens of thousands of King Grade magic treasures.
The Flaming Cloud Spirit Gourd, the Rakshasa Jade Vase, the Fire Crystal Golem, the Fire God Elephant, the Instant Space Ring, and the True Devil Blood Plate were all defensive treasures. He indeed lacked an offensive treasure that could replace the Edgeless Sword.
At the same time, in the Xuanhuang Six Paths Pagoda, he began to fuse the Golden Twin Dragon Sword he obtained from the Third Prince with the Six Paths Pagoda.
They both had the power of gold and silver, and their quality was roughly the same. After the fusion of the two magic treasures, especially the fusion of the golden sword with the Xuanhuang Six Paths Pagoda, his natal magic treasure would gain another type of offensive power. It was not a formation, but a magic treasure.
For example, if he wanted to suppress a Big Goblin and the formation could not subdue it, he could use the Golden Twin Dragon Sword to kill it on the spot.
Waiting for the Golden Sword to Fuse
After entering the Xuanhuang Six Paths Pagoda, he found that he could find more gold and silver to forge more gold and silver swords to form a sword formation.
It seemed that he would have to collect more gold and silver, as well as Xuanhuang Stone and Primordial Jade. Moreover, the Xuanhuang Six Paths Pagoda still needed a lot of materials before it could be upgraded to a Dao Artifact.
"I have already fused with the Third Prince's energy. Now, my recovery speed is getting faster and faster. In addition to the massive increase in my True Qi, the Origin of the Primordial God World and the Emperor's Qi are also incredible. I did not expect that the few times I came into contact with the Shenyuan Empire, I would obtain a large amount of the Shenyuan Empire's Origin."
"Since the Shenyuan Empire wants to take my Mortal Emperor World, then why don't the Su Fang set their sights on your Primordial God World and take over your Shenyuan Empire in the future?"
"Now that I have so much Origin of the Primordial God World, when I reach the Ascension Realm in the future and obtain even more Origin of the Primordial God World, it will not be impossible for me to replace the Shenyuan Empire and control the Primordial God World."
Because he had fused with the Third Prince's energy, his recovery speed had increased to another level. He had already recovered seventy percent.
Su Fang was using his Golden Core as a world to cultivate the Way of the Emperor. He was slowly fusing with the Third Prince's Golden Core.
He was absorbing the Emperor's Qi for free. It meant that the Third Prince's Qi of the Emperor had all become his.
Su Fang also had the Heavenly Gourd Spirit Tree's essence, the Black Lotus True Body, the Perfect Physical Body, the Dragon-Taming Wood's left arm, the Immortal's Strength, and various other resources. His recovery speed was already very shocking.
Another half a year passed.
Suddenly, he heard some movement in the valley. He stopped cultivating and walked out of the valley. He saw some middle-aged women surrounding Xun Er and talking about something.
It turned out that Xun Er was in a bad mood. Every once in a while, she would come to the valley to see everyone. This time, her mood was very different from before. Everyone was asking her why.
Xun Er quickly recovered her mood. When she saw Su Fang, she asked him to help everyone get rid of weeds. Su Fang suddenly felt like he had returned to Purple Qi Mountain and lived with his clansmen in the temple.
Because of this, he gradually integrated into the mortal atmosphere. He busied himself with everyone and felt very comfortable. At night, he even ate with everyone.
It was a simple meal, but he felt that it was similar to spirit fruits.
Su Fang and Xun Er sat together and watched everyone busy themselves. Both of them had the same smile on their faces.
Xun Er suddenly sighed. "I used to have such a big family. Unfortunately, they were attacked by demonic beasts and saved only me. If I hadn't met Master, I might have died in the wilderness."
"Did you encounter something unpleasant today?" It seemed like Su Fang was deliberately changing the topic.
"Master told me to cultivate the Killing Sword Technique and focus on the killing heart. He said that in the future, there would be no place for me in this world. In the end, I would either be killed by the Big Goblin or by other cultivators. However, I still want to cultivate according to my own ideas. Although I am used to the deception, fighting, and all kinds of bloodshed in this world, I often think that killing is the only choice. Can enemies, hatred, and grievances be resolved through killing?"
Xun Er seemed to be talking to herself. "I feel that the best way to stop killing is to not kill. Therefore, I started to follow my own ideas and search for a cultivation path that can save people. The sword technique I cultivate is to stop killing and save people. However, I have not achieved anything. My senior brothers and sisters have all reached the Winged Transformation Realm. I am the only one who is cultivating slowly. Should I give up?"
Su Fang listened and took a long breath. "It is impossible for there to be no killing in this world."
"You also think that my method won't work? Do I have to be like everyone else and keep killing?"
"What I mean is, you have to think of a way."
"A way? I have not achieved anything after all these years. How can I have a way?"
"Why do you have the idea of saving people? You have to know that in the cultivation world, everyone is in danger. They want to protect themselves and kill people."
"Back then, when I went out to train, I met an old senior. When he saw that I could not bear to kill a few cultivators who were controlled by demonic aura, he appeared and taught me the way to save people. He said that if I did not kill people, it was to save people. After cultivating for so many years, I still do not understand what it means to save people."
Xun Er looked at the mortals around her. "I insisted on bringing the mortals here, and Master agreed in the end. But is this saving people? If this is saving people, then wouldn't I have to save all the mortals and build a secluded place? This isn't saving people, this is hiding. I deeply understand that this can save them for a while, but it can't save them forever."
"Actually, your experience is similar to mine. When I was young, my family was also wiped out. Fortunately, I changed everything step by step by myself. Similarly, I came to this cultivation world and am used to seeing deception and deception. My hands are also stained with blood. But don't worry, the people I killed were all people who wanted to kill me. If they did not force me into a desperate situation, I would not kill them. If you really want to walk a different path, then you should focus on finding it. I feel that saving people starts from killing people. If you do not understand why you have to kill people, then you will not be able to find a way to save people."
He suddenly stood up. "Recently, I have recovered quite a bit. I can help you practice your sword. Let me see how powerful your Burning Heaven Sword Sect's sword techniques are."
Xun Er was extremely surprised. "Oh, I feel that you are not at the Wing Transformation Realm. Also, you are heavily injured. If you practice sword techniques with me, I, I am afraid that I will injure you and affect your recovery."
"I am fine. You need someone to see your weakness. I feel that practicing sword techniques with me will benefit you greatly. Who knows, it might even help you break through your bottleneck."
"Then let's go to the array."
The two immediately flew out of the valley.
They arrived at the forest array beside the lake. In front of the cliff, Xun Er's right hand gently grabbed, and a Peach Wood Sword with a wood-elemental spirit light appeared.
Seeing the Peach Wood Sword, Su Fang could tell that it was not ordinary. "What a wood-elemental spirit sword!"
"The other flying swords are too tyrannical when killing people. I chose this Peach Wood Sword because I do not want to injure people or even kill people."
"Buzz!"
A sword qi appeared in Su Fang's palm. It was not a magic treasure, but a Lotus Leaf True Pattern. It intertwined to form a sword qi.
"Be careful, my Burning Heaven Sword Sect has countless sword techniques. I cultivate the Clearwater Sword Technique. The sword intent is like water, continuous and unending. If it is powerful, it will form a tyrannical storm."
Hua Hua
Xun Er took the initiative to attack.
She suddenly stood on her tiptoes, as light as a dancing butterfly, and then suddenly became fierce in midair. The peach wood sword exploded with waves of entwined sword qi, turning into a sword wind that wanted to kill Su Fang.
Clearwater Sword Technique.
Not bad.
Under Su Fang's gaze, Xun Er, who was in the sword wind, slashed out hundreds of sword techniques in a breath. In the end, she fused together such a shocking sword wind.
Zi Zi Zi
In the face of such a powerful attack, Su Fang remained calm and composed. It was as if he had taken root on the spot as he stabbed out with his lotus shaped sword qi. Countless lotus shaped sword energy collided with the sword wind with a rumbling sound.
After the two sword qi collided, Xun Er suddenly charged out of the colliding sword qi with an imposing aura. She unexpectedly slashed at Su Fang with her sword.
"Bang!"
Su Fang also stabbed out with his sword like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water.
When the swords collided, Xun Er quickened her pace. It was as if she had created countless illusions. In the blink of an eye, the Peach Wood Sword seemed to be everywhere, surrounding Su Fang.
Chi!
The attack was as fast as lightning.
It seemed that there were Peach Wood Swords around her, but the real Peach Wood Sword left her hand and stabbed at Su Fang's right shoulder.
Su Fang also dodged the sword with a strange movement technique.
However, he was surprised that Xun Er activated the Peach Wood Sword and brandished the sword technique to the extreme. At this moment, her aura merged perfectly with the Peach Wood Sword. When she flashed, the sword qi formed a surging and fierce aura. The sword qi was like a flood, pressing down on Su Fang.
"Just the sword technique is so extraordinary. If it is activated with a great magical power, it can form a river of sword qi that is hundreds of feet long."
He admired it. However, at this moment, Su Fang did something inexplicable.
He dodged in time, but in mid-air, he appeared in front of the sword qi.
"Oh no!"
Xun Er cried out in alarm.
Puff!
But …
The sword qi pierced into Su Fang's body like lightning.
