In the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
Inside the palace, Ling Xian, who was cultivating on top of a praying mat, suddenly opened his eyes. Two rays of light shot out and pierced through the void.
His eyes were as bright as the stars and as sharp as swords. They carried with them a heavy amount of pressure that made others not dare to look directly at them.
After a month of hard training, Ling Xian's cultivation improved a little and his mentality improved as well. However, these were small gains. His biggest gain was the inheritance from the Slay Sword Peak.
This technique focuses on killing with one strike. It is merciless and very powerful. On the other hand, it is very difficult to cultivate. For normal people, without three to five years of hard work, it is very hard for them to reach the initial realm.
After all, to transform one's spiritual energy into sword energy requires a lot of pain. Only those with great perseverance can achieve this.
However, to someone like Ling Xian, who is extremely enlightened and has shocking perseverance, a few months was more than enough. In other words, he has already transformed his spiritual energy into sword energy and reached the initial realm.
"The inheritance from the Slay Sword Peak … let me test its power." Ling Xian had a smile on his lips. Then, an almost transparent sword energy appeared.
This sword was as thin as a cicada's wing. The moment it appeared, it emitted cold killer's intent. Under his control, it howled and dashed forward.
Whooosh!
The sword light whistled, carrying with it a sharp divine might. It instantly pierced through the mountain wall, leaving behind a small hole.
To know that this palace was made out of extremely sturdy stones. For this sword to pierce through it, it was obvious how powerful it was.
However, at this scene, Ling Xian wasn't satisfied. Of course, he wasn't disappointed either.
"It truly is powerful. Sadly, I can't use it right now."
Mumbling, Ling Xian shook his head. The inheritance from the Slay Sword Peak was extraordinary, but he had the Eyes of Execution. Which transformation wasn't powerful?
Not to mention the Disorder Conquering Fists that filled the sky.
Therefore, Ling Xian wasn't satisfied, nor was he disappointed. After all, he had only trained this technique to the initial realm. It was expected that it would be this powerful. However, from this, it was obvious that this technique had a lot of potential.
Presumably, when he cultivated to the Great Accomplishment Realm, it would give him a nice surprise.
"Although I won't be able to use it for now, I believe that once I master this technique, its might will definitely be extremely powerful."
Ling Xian had a faint smile on his lips. Remembering that today was the day he would be heading to the Imperishable Temple, anticipation flashed across his eyes. He mumbled, "It's time to move. I sure want to see just how powerful the legendary kinds are."
As he finished speaking, he strode out of the cave.
It was time for him to move.
Go to that mysterious ancient land and face the powerful enemies of the myriad races!
…
Just as Ling Xian walked out of the palace, there were already three silhouettes waiting for him outside the Wan Jian House's gate.
One of them wore a white robe and had a jade-like face, as if he was an immortal that had descended from the heavens. Especially under the faint golden light, it was even more extraordinary and peerless.
It was Dao Wu Ji.
One has to admit that the Sect Leader's demeanor was far too dazzling. He completely outshone the other two. It was as if he was the only one left in this place, and the other two couldn't be seen.
Reality was that the other two were extraordinary as well. After all, they were completion leveled powerhouses of the younger generation. How bad could their demeanor be?
However, compared to Dao Wu Ji, they were far behind.
One was a man, and the other was a woman. The man's body was muscular and his skin was tanned. He stood there like a steel tower, exuding a lot of pressure.
The woman's face was delicate and her body was petite. Especially when she stood next to the tall and muscular man, she looked even more adorable, like a child that hadn't grown up yet.
These two were of the intermediate stage of the completion level. The man's name was Wang Yang, and the woman's name was Lin Ying. They were Heaven's Favorites that the Wan Jian House spent all their resources on.
Before Ling Xian appeared, these two were the strongest powerhouses of the Wan Jian House's younger generation. Their capabilities and talents were extraordinary, and they looked very young.
In reality, however, these two were already over 30 years old. After all, cultivators cannot be judged by their appearance.
Just like Dao Wu Ji, he was at least 500 years old. But what about his appearance? He still looked like a 20 something year old young man without any signs of aging.
"This time, the Imperishable Temple is opening. The two of you should focus on the treasures. If you can fight, then fight. If you can't, then retreat. Do not linger."
Dao Wu Ji suddenly spoke in a serious tone, "After all, the two of you are weaker than most of the Heaven's Favorites, let alone the foreign geniuses."
"Headmaster, do not worry. We understand."
The two of them spoke in unison. There was no dissatisfaction on their faces. They knew very well that compared to the top Heaven's Favorites of the 10 dynasties and nine Houses, they were weaker. Naturally, they weren't unhappy.
"As long as you understand."
Dao Wu Ji nodded softly and warned, "Right, the two of you must listen to Ling Xian. Do not leave his side if you can."
"Yes, Headmaster." The two of them nodded solemnly, indicating that they will listen to Ling Xian.
Back then, when Lin Tian came to challenge them, the two of them were no match for him. But Ling Xian defeated him with one punch. Plus, with his past achievements, he naturally won them over.
However, seeing that Ling Xian hasn't arrived for a long time, Lin Ying complained a little and mumbled, "He sure is arrogant. We've waited for half an hour and he still hasn't arrived."
"About that …" Wang Yang scratched his head and didn't answer.
"Stop mumbling. I am waiting here. Why can't you wait?" Dao Wu Ji brandished his hand, gesturing for Lin Ying to shut up.
Seeing this, the petite girl pouted and mumbled, "Psh, why can't I say it? It's his fault. I hate men who aren't punctual. "
Just then, a bright laughter arose from afar.
"You are right. I came down late."
In the next second, a silhouette in a white robe appeared before everyone. Like a real immortal, he was out of this world and above all else.
The moment he appeared, he became the only thing in the world. Not only did he outshine the other two, he even stole half of Dao Wu Ji's brilliance. He was now on par with Dao Wu Ji.
To Wang Yang and Lin Ying, it was as if the world was sliced in half. One half belonged to Dao Wu Ji, the other half belonged to Ling Xian, who was famous in Yunzhou.
That kind of peerless grace was truly extraordinary. Very few people could compare to her.
"You came."
Grinning, Dao Wu Ji's eyes flashed with strangeness. It wasn't because of the demeanor of the person before him. It was because under his senses, the Ling Xian before him was like a heavenly sword.
Though there was no sharpness to it, the feeling he gives off is that once it is unsheathed, it will dazzle all nine continents and kill all heroes!
This temperament made Dao Wu Ji frown. He suddenly remembered something and asked in shock, "You … could it be that you have mastered the Slaying Sword?"
"That's right. Headmaster sure has good eyes."
Against Dao Wu Ji's questioning gaze, Ling Xian faintly smiled. He didn't think this was a big deal.
However, the moment his voice trailed off, the other three were speechless. They stared at Ling Xian like they were looking at a monster.
