On the grass in front of the bamboo hut, Qin Yun was using a tree branch as a sword. He was cultivating one of the three best techniques of Zhoushan sword school, the Frost Sword Chart.
"Chi! Chi! Chi!"
The sword light was misty, and cold air condensed. Frost began to appear on the ground, and the frost on the ground spread out in all directions. The spring sun was bright, but frost was condensing. It was quite an exaggeration.
The more he cultivated, the happier Qin Yun was.
"Impressive. The Frost Sword Chart's basic sword technique — Three Thousand Frost Swords. It's the most solid sword technique I've ever seen. As long as I cultivate it step by step and put in some hard work, reaching the Seamless realm is inevitable." Qin Yun marveled. "A basic sword technique that will definitely reach the Seamless realm. Although I'm known as the best Sword Fairy in my homeworld, I'm unable to create it! However, generations of geniuses in this world have focused on close combat techniques. Instead, they have formed a system. It's much better than my homeworld. "
Qin Yun was delighted.
The Frost Sword Chart's basic sword technique, Three Thousand Frost Swords, had given Qin Yun a lot of benefits. It allowed him to analyze the sword technique from a different perspective.
"Every world has its advantages."
"In ancient times, although the moves were crude, it was easier to become a Godfiend. My soul was powerful and cultivation was fast. I figured out a Sword Dao in ten years. I perfected my Sword Dao in fifty years, "thought Qin Yun." And now, this world has an extremely long history. Many of its histories have been severed. Immortals and Buddhas have long become legends. Divine powers and Dharma spells have been severed. Everyone studies close combat techniques. This is the crystallization of the wisdom of countless heroes in this world. Yet, their close combat techniques have reached an unimaginable stage. "
"That's what I need to learn."
Qin Yun had gained a lot from the Frost Sword Chart, so he naturally wanted to learn more.
…
As a peerless Sword Fairy who had grasped a Sword Dao, Qin Yun spent half a day dissecting the Three Thousand Frost Swords. He absorbed the crystallization of wisdom within and infused it into his Misty Rain Sword Art. Only then did he cultivate the second volume of the Frost Sword Chart.
"Frost Sword Chart's second volume, Iceheart Sword Art."
This scroll pointed directly to the Extreme Realm.
The Extreme Realm of this sword technique was also called the Extreme Realm of Iceheart. After successfully cultivating it, one's heart would be like a mirror of ice, and it would be able to reflect everything in the world. Only in this way would one be able to see through the flaws in one's opponent's moves, and one would be able to strike first and defeat one's opponent swiftly.
Although Qin Yun was a Sword Fairy who had grasped the Sword Dao, and his Sword Dao contained a total of nine Paramount realms, there was no Iceheart Paramount realm among them. Logically speaking, it was very difficult for him to grasp a new Paramount realm.
But when he really cultivated, Qin Yun found that it was very smooth.
"How strange."
"I feel that my state of mind in this life is exceptionally calm and gentle." Qin Yun was puzzled. "In my previous life, my body was filled with killing intent. The killing intent has been tormenting me. But in this life … it was the opposite. It was extremely calm. Even if I discovered that this sword art was helpful to me, I should have been very happy. But my heart is calm. "
His heart was as still as water. This state was naturally good. But if it was like this all the time! Without the fanaticism, anger, and other emotions, Qin Yun felt a headache coming on.
"I feel like I've become an accomplished monk." Qin Yun shook his head and smiled. "In Meng Yiqiu's memories, he didn't have such a situation. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so infatuated with Gong Xianzi. In my previous life, 'Wing' was also very normal. After I descended, I was constantly tormented by the killing intent. In this life, it's the complete opposite. After descending, my state of mind is exceptionally calm and gentle. "
After cultivating for a while.
"I've mastered it?" Qin Yun was extremely astonished.
In just an hour, Qin Yun grasped a new Paramount realm, Iceheart.
"I grasped the Iceheart Paramount realm so quickly. It looks like in this life, my state of mind is especially suitable for the Iceheart Paramount realm," Qin Yun thought to himself.
…
The Frost Sword Chart had a total of three scrolls.
The Three Thousand Frost Sword, the Iceheart Sword Art, and the Frost Chart went from basic to profound. However, Qin Yun didn't think highly of the most profound Frost Chart. With his Sword Dao realm, he could quickly determine that the Frost Chart was said to contain Elder Frost's Sword Dao. He was also a peerless swordsman in history who had stepped into the Dao. After his ultimate technique was obtained by Zhoushan Sword School, it became one of the three ultimate techniques.
Zhoushan Sword School's disciples studied the Frost Chart and comprehended sword techniques. There had always been people who had succeeded.
In this generation, the person with the highest achievement in the Frost Sword Chart was Meng Yiqiu, who was known as the Frost Sword!
"Frost Chart? It's only the most ordinary level of Dao. "Qin Yun shook his head inwardly and casually threw away the branch." It's far inferior to the Sword Dao I have comprehended. To me, the Basic Sword Techniques have given me a lot of inspiration.
"I've already mastered this Frost Sword Chart. It's useless to me. I still need to collect more sword techniques."
"Master, Master." A clear voice sounded.
A green-dressed girl came over with a bamboo basket and shouted from afar.
Qin Yun turned his head and saw the green-dressed girl. He could not help but smile. "Qingsha."
"Master, you look a lot better today." The green-dressed girl's eyes lit up as she praised him. In the past, her master never came out of the bamboo hut. Especially after the sect master's death, her master was even sadder. Today, he came out with a smile on his face. It was very rare.
"Qingsha." Qin Yun said with a smile. "I've become an Elder. Due to the sect's rules, I have to take in at least two personal disciples. You and Meixia were arranged to be under my tutelage by the sect. Meixia only came to see me for the first few days, but she never came again. You, on the other hand, send me food every day. Don't you know that I don't have much time left and that I'm a dying man? "
"A master for a day, a father for life," said the green-dressed girl solemnly.
She, Liu Qingsha, had entered the Zhoushan sword school as a child. She had been cultivating diligently from a young age. After many selections and competitions within the sect, she finally became an inherited-teachings disciple at the age of eighteen! She never expected that she would eventually be arranged to be under Frost Sword Meng Yiqiu's tutelage with Qi Meixia! This was definitely the worst possible arrangement. Everyone knew that Meng Yiqiu would probably die in the next few months.
Qi Meixia initially served him warmly, hoping that Meng Yiqiu would teach her well before he died. However, Meng Yiqiu was already in pain. Now that his closest sect master had died, he was even more devastated. How could he be in the mood to teach his disciple? When Qi Meixia saw that there was no hope, she went to curry favor with the other Elders.
As for Liu Qingsha, she sent him food every day. From her point of view, he was her master after all.
In the cultivation world …
A master-disciple relationship was very important. A master was really like a parent.
"A master for a day, a father for life." Qin Yun muttered softly. In Meng Yiqiu's memories, the person he admired and respected the most was his master, the previous sect master of Zhoushan sword school, Feng Qingcang. This memory also made Qin Yun respect Feng Qingcang.
"Qingsha, follow me." Qin Yun waved his hand, and a sword flew out from the bamboo hut and landed in Qin Yun's hand. He casually hung it at his waist.
"Yes." Liu Qingsha was somewhat puzzled, but she still followed him with the basket.
…
Qin Yun brought Liu Qingsha to a cemetery in the back mountain.
It was the tomb of the previous sect master, Feng Qingcang.
Qin Yun watched silently.
When Meng Yiqiu was young, he and his sister depended on each other. Later, he was rescued by Feng Qingcang and brought back to the sect. Feng Qingcang often took care of him. Later, he became Feng Qingcang's personal disciple. In Meng Yiqiu's heart, he treated Feng Qingcang as his father! Feng Qingcang also took care of Meng Yiqiu like his own son. After Meng Yiqiu was poisoned, Feng Qingcang was enraged. He left the sect to search for an antidote and to avenge Meng Yiqiu.
Feng Qingcang's death had something to do with Meng Yiqiu.
Feng Qingcang's death! Meng Yiqiu blamed himself and grieved.
"I only absorbed a portion of his memories. Why do I feel pain in my heart?" Qin Yun held his chest and looked at the tombstone. "Is it an obsession?"
"Meng Yiqiu was too foolish to have fallen into such a state. He was completely used by a vicious woman and became a pawn. He even implicated Master. "
"That vicious woman …"
Qin Yun's eyes flashed coldly. "Although Meng Yiqiu was 38 years old, he had seen too little of the darkness in people's hearts! From the looks of it, that vicious woman had been using him and scheming against him from the beginning. "
"Meng Yiqiu, I know you hate her. Don't worry. The Heavenly Dao has a cycle of reincarnation. Good and evil will eventually be repaid," Qin Yun said silently.
Liu Qingsha watched from behind.
She knew that her master, Meng Yiqiu, had a deep relationship with the previous sect master.
"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! "
Suddenly, the bell sounded six times in a row.
"Six times?" Qin Yun's expression changed. Liu Qingsha's face turned pale. The six bell chimes meant that the sect was at a critical juncture.
"Master." Liu Qingsha was somewhat flustered.
"Let's go," shouted Qin Yun as he led Liu Qingsha towards the sect's grand hall in front of the mountain.
*****
Zhoushan sword school had a deep heritage. Although some of its disciples were traveling outside, they immediately gathered more than 3,000 outer sect disciples, 500 inner sect disciples, as well as inherited-disciples and Elders in the square in front of the sect's grand hall.
The densely packed disciples looked ahead solemnly. They had long set up a sword array. Countless sword beams formed phantom mountains that appeared in the sky. With these disciples working together in the sword array, they could easily defeat the Imperial Court's 100,000-strong army! But at that moment, all of them looked as though they were facing a formidable enemy. At the front of the sword array was the current sect master, Zuo Tang, the Elders, and the inherited-disciples.
The Elders were all Connate realm experts who had grasped the Heavenly Dao's intent realm. All of them were experts who could fight against ten thousand alone.
Whoosh!
Whoosh! Qin Yun led his disciple, Liu Qingsha, to the front of the crowd. They had rushed over from the back mountain and were the last to arrive.
"Meng Yiqiu." The other Elders looked at Qin Yun with a look of disgust. As an Elder who was poisoned and had little strength left and the former sect master had died because of Meng Yiqiu, they naturally felt disgust for him.
"He was toyed with by a woman and even caused Master's death. He's stupid and useless."
Many people had such thoughts when they saw Qin Yun.
Qin Yun stood by the side after he appeared.
"Yiqiu." Sect Master Zuo Tang was a slightly plump middle-aged man. He was about eighty years old but at the Connate False Core realm, he had a lifespan of two hundred years. He was naturally considered young and vigorous. He was also Qin Yun's eldest senior brother. Zuo Tang looked at Qin Yun. They still had feelings for each other but seeing his junior brother approach death made his heart ache.
"Senior Brother, what happened?" inquired Qin Yun.
