The place where Cigarette Case and the rest gathered was a ring-shaped mountain. Outside the ring-shaped mountain, it was covered in white snow. Inside the ring-shaped mountain, it was like spring all year round. It was a pretty good place.
When he arrived at the ring-shaped mountain, he realized that all ten of his former companions had gathered, except for the infant mother, Gong Xiaodie.
"Didn't you call Cigarette Case? I haven't seen him for half a year. I really want to see the splendor of the so-called Inner Sword. What's the difference between him and us losers? "Lou Xiaoyi laughed.
The person in charge of organizing this gathering was Cigarette Case, Ling Ruofeng. This was also his habit. He liked to take the lead in everything. With his strength, it was impossible for him to establish a separate circle. Therefore, he could only pull in his former companions.
"He's an Inner Sword now. He's different from us! She might not come even if we call him. It'll be awkward if he comes.
Cigarette Butt, can you not call him by his Dharma name the moment we meet? We're so familiar with each other. Isn't it more intimate to call him by his name? "
Lou Xiaoyi nodded. "Calling him by his name is good! Calling him by his name is good! "
Ling Ruofeng led him into the valley. Immediately, the scenery changed. After familiarizing himself with the white snow, it was indeed the style of a cultivator to have such a green environment to change his mood.
In an empty space, someone had set up a stall to barbecue food. There was a sumptuous spread of fruits and wine. It was obvious that it had been meticulously prepared.
Lou Xiaoyi felt that something was amiss. "Are there any guests coming?"
Ling Ruofeng nodded. "It's mainly us. I've also invited a few senior brothers and seniors. They're experts with great strength in the Outer Sword lineage.
Firstly, it's to make more friends. Secondly, it's to see how Outer Swordsmen fight. We're new here and are clueless. It's useless to train hard in the cave abode! "
Lou Xiaoyi sighed in admiration. "Senior Brother Ling, you're so thorough! You've made new friends, but you haven't forgotten your old friends! "
Although he said that, he knew that things weren't that simple. There was always something fishy going on. He couldn't be bothered to guess. There was bound to be a clue.
The guests had arrived earlier than expected. Or rather, Lou Xiaoyi was too slow and arrived a little late. Therefore, the three external swordsmen had arrived together with him.
Ling Ruofeng introduced them enthusiastically, "This is Senior Brother Guang Gu, Senior Brother Yan Cheng, and Senior Brother Yan Hua … Today, they took the time out of their busy schedules to attend our gathering and give us pointers on cultivation. It's truly our honor …"
Everyone treated him with respect, and the three senior brothers also returned the courtesy sincerely, without the slightest trace of impatience or arrogance.
Guang Gu was from the Guang generation, which meant that he had entered the sect at least fifty years earlier than them. Although the other two were also from the Yan generation, looking at their demeanor, they were also veterans who had been in the Dome for decades. Naturally, their demeanor was different.
Here, no one was overbearing at first sight, and no one was inexplicably arrogant. They were all cultured people. It didn't make sense that mortals could cultivate their body and mind by writing and painting for more than ten years. Cultivators, on the other hand, had cultivated for longer periods of time, yet they were vulgar and unsophisticated.
Everyone drank wine, ate meat, and drank tea. They each took their own pleasure. This kind of occasion was different from a private gathering of good friends. No one would shout and respect each other, and no one would be crazy drunk. The banquet was just a way to cover up the awkwardness. For example, if you didn't want to talk, you could bury your head in eating and drinking.
Lou Xiaoyi didn't know what to say because the most discussed topic was swordsmanship. In this aspect, he was incompatible with the people present. He didn't want to argue because he understood that in the current situation of Xuanyuan, they were the mainstream and orthodox. This was something that had been proven through the rise and fall of sects for tens of thousands of years!
If he really wanted to prove his point of view, he didn't need to say it. When he had a place in the Sword Aura Rushing to Heaven Pavilion one day, there would naturally be people who would learn from him! When he dominated the external swordsmanship, his swordsmanship would be the orthodox way!
What's more, he didn't want to prove anything! He had a lot of secrets on him. Was it about the Interception of Luck? Was it about his own origin? Was it about his almost instinctive obsession with swordsmanship?
His thoughts were very likely to belong only to himself, and not a universal truth that could be placed on top of the dome.
However, he still pricked up his ears and learned from the exchange of swordsmanship with this group of people, especially the three senior brothers. Xuanyuan had a very good habit. He rarely hid anything in his exchanges. This was actually a process of mutual improvement, not only for the listeners, but also for the preacher.
Humans were a very strange race. If you let them think by themselves, they might not be able to come up with anything. However, if you let them face a group of admiring admirers, especially if there were a few beautiful female cultivators among them, they would immediately talk non-stop. Their ideas would flow like a fountain. The things that he didn't quite understand before were now clear, and the things that he was hesitant about were now confirmed.
What a wonderful power!
Xuanyuan Swordsman had more males than females, and it was completely out of proportion. This was also the reason why the entertainment centers around the dome were so developed. Many Swordsman preferred this kind of solution, especially those who were firm in their pursuit of the Dao!
Lou Xiaoyi had always been very curious about Xuanyuan's abnormal behavior. Why didn't the higher-ups restrict it? Logically speaking, with Xuanyuan's position in the Five Rings, there shouldn't be a lack of suitable Dao companions!
While the others were talking, he was thinking about it. Even so, he still heard something different from the words of the old cultivators!
The most important thing was that these three senior brothers also came from outside the universe. Just like them, they were all abducted!
This was more like an alliance without a home!
Halfway through the wine, Senior Brother Yan Cheng was in high spirits. He took out his flying sword and let everyone have a taste of the sword power of a Mature External Sword Cultivator!
Yan Cheng cultivated the Wind and Thunder Sword! Eight layers of sword formations were engraved. Was this his strongest flying sword, or just one of the commonly used ones?

Other people's privacy wasn't important. What was important was that many things could be seen from the flying sword's movement!
The maximum distance was two thousand feet. The maximum speed couldn't be accurately measured, but it definitely wouldn't exceed the speed of sound. As for the power, the heavy bluestone could easily destroy the sword! If it pierced a person's body, even a Foundation Establishment Cultivator wouldn't be able to withstand it!
Of course, it also depended on the specific defense methods and whether talismans were used to create a defensive circle. The advancement of body cultivation techniques was like a battle between a spear and a shield. It couldn't be compared purely.
In comparison, Lou Xiaoyi's flying sword's effective range was only five hundred feet. Its speed wasn't enough. The sword could be seen clearly with the naked eye, which meant that he had enough time to dodge. As for the power, the tree could penetrate it, but the bluestone could only penetrate three inches. The gap was huge!
This was an unavoidable reality. He had only been in the Foundation Establishment Stage for four years. During that time, he had drifted in the deep space of the universe for three years. It had been less than a year since he entered Xuanyuan and obtained the superior techniques. He couldn't compare with the senior Swordsman who had been cultivating for decades!
This was a good thing. At least he knew how big the gap was between him and the others. Only then could he have a target to compare himself with. He reckoned that these three senior brothers were not the best in the Outer Xuanyuan Sword Group. Otherwise, they wouldn't have shown up at this level of gathering!
Lou Xiaoyi sighed. The thought of a rice worm was rising again … It wasn't easy to compete with them!
