This time, the team was led by a man and a woman. Both of them were at the middle stage of the Supreme Realm. The man was fine, but he was a little old. It was not a big deal for him to become a middle stage Supreme Realm expert early in the sect.
The woman was wearing a sky-blue dress. She was tall and beautiful, and she was younger than most of the people present. She was not even twenty-five years old, and her black hair was like a waterfall that fell to her calves. The man beside her also looked at her with admiration and admiration.
"Let's go." When everyone arrived, the woman called out and took the lead, turning into a streak of light and flying into the distance.
Seeing this, Ling Tian followed behind the crowd.
Three days later, they arrived at the spirit stone mine. The spirit stone mine wasn't left unguarded, and they were only here to provide reinforcements. It turned out that there was a late stage Supreme realm inner sect expert guarding the mine. When he saw Ling Tian and the rest, he welcomed them into their residence. He didn't arrange any tasks for them, only telling them that they were only needed to help out in emergencies such as attacks from demonic beasts.
Seeing this, Ling Tian was even more relaxed and spent his time cultivating to reach the peak of the Emperor realm. Even if there were any gatherings, he would not participate.
One evening, Ling Tian stopped his cultivation and rested on a branch of a large tree. At the same time, he held a wine flask in his hand and started drinking. "Why don't you go to the party? Drinking alone here." Just as Ling Tian was sizing up the forest, a beautiful yet cold voice rang out.
Hearing this, Ling Tian turned around and saw the lady who led the team walking towards him.
"Not in the group." Ling Tian only took a glance before turning around and saying.
"Discord? I've never seen you communicate with anyone before, so why are you in a group?”the woman said.
Ling Tian didn't reply and instead looked towards the dense forest. The trees here were all very large and densely packed, with one or two low level demonic beasts appearing occasionally. Ling Tian knew that it wasn't that there weren't any high-level demonic beasts here. On the contrary, the mountain range was extremely large and there were only some high-level demonic beasts and some second major realm savage beasts. The reason why there weren't any high-level demonic beasts here was because Bei Feng Gate had already cleared out most of the demonic beasts here in order to mine the spiritual stones.
"I'm talking to you! Why aren't you answering?" At this moment, a lady sat beside Ling Tian and asked.
Hearing this, Ling Tian took a whiff of the fragrance from the woman's body and did not turn back to look. Instead, he took another sip and said,""I'm not familiar with you. What's there to say?”
"Humph!" The woman snorted coldly and turned her head away. After a while, she turned around and said,"You can get to know me if you don't know me well. My name is Han Xue.”
"It's a little cold." Hearing this, Ling Tian turned around and looked at Han Xue.
"I'm asking for your name, not for you to comment on me.”Han Xue frowned. " Ling Tian!" Hearing this, Ling Tian did not beat around the bush and replied indifferently. After that, he ignored Han Xue and leaned against a tree as he drank his wine.
"You're very infuriating, you know that!" Seeing this, Han Xue suddenly stretched out her hand towards Ling Tian.
"Crack!" Han Xue clawed at the tree, and the cold air from her hand froze the tree trunk, causing it to crack. When she raised her head, she saw Ling Tian sitting on the branch above her head, drinking from a wine jug.
"What a fast speed, but it's not enough to be fast.”Seeing this, Han Xue sighed, but then changed the topic and said coldly,""Ice Claw." A cold light shone from Hao's hand and froze the entire tree. However, when she turned around, she saw Ling Tian walking slowly towards the distance, drinking wine as he walked.
"Extreme Cold Claw!" Seeing this, Han Xue stomped on the frozen tree and charged towards Ling Tian, the cold light in her hands becoming even more intense.
"Bingo!" When the claw landed on Ling Tian's back, Han Xue was secretly delighted. However, she quickly realized that something was wrong. The figure in front of her immediately dispersed, and her claw landed on the ground. The ground started to freeze, and the surrounding 100 metres turned into ice as the ground started to crack.
However, Han Xue did not care about this. She raised her head and saw Ling Tian walking away from her, only to see his back view.
Han Xue was furious. She had never been ignored like this before. Thus, she took out a long sword from her storage ring. The long sword was snow-colored, slender, and gorgeous, emitting a cold aura.
The 'Extreme Ice Sword' took out her long sword and Han Xue flew towards Ling Tian. At the same time, she used her high level Dou Technique.
Ling Tian didn't draw his sword, instead, he used his right hand as a sword finger to block Han Xue's sword and said,""Alright, let's call it a day."
"No, eat my sword again." Seeing this, Han Xue's competitive spirit rose and she raised her sword to slash at Ling Tian. " Ling Tian's Single Sword!" Seeing this, Ling Tian had no choice but to face it head-on.
" Dang, dang, dang." The battle became more and more intense. Although no one was injured, the sword qi that swept across the ground was full of scars, and the momentum spread.
"Brat, take this!" Just as Ling Tian was about to clash head-on with Han Xue, a sharp blade light suddenly appeared from behind.
Seeing this, Ling Tian hurriedly dodged to the side. However, because he had been knocked back by Han Xue's sword, Ling Tian was unable to maintain his momentum. Even though he had used his own strength and battle experience to dodge, his left arm was still cut by the sword, and blood stained his sleeves.
When he raised his head and looked in the direction of the saber light, he saw his attacker say to Han Xue," Miss Hanxue, are you alright?" " I..." Han Xue didn't know that things would turn out like this. She was at a loss.
"She's fine, but you're not!" Hearing this, Ling Tian looked at the man who led the team that day and then at his injured left arm.
"Brat, what did you say? How dare you attack Miss Hanxue? I haven't settled the score with you yet! Look at the saber." As the man spoke, he swung his saber towards Ling Tian.
"This…Stop, you misunderstood.”Han Xue called out after some hesitation. However, the man did not stop and continued slashing towards Ling Tian. The golden light from his saber was extremely bright, and it seemed like this slash was not simple.
"You're courting death! After saying that, Ling Tian pointed his sword at the man and slashed out a golden sword Qi before turning around and leaving.
"Clang!" "Puff!" The sword Qi and the saber light collided and instantly dispersed the saber light. It collided with the saber in the man's hand and sent it flying. It struck his chest, causing him to fly backward. A long sword mark so deep that one could see the bone was left on his chest.
Ling Tian did not look at the man lying in a pool of blood, nor did he look at Han Xue who was shocked by the incident last year. He left immediately.
After that, this matter continued to spread among the crowd, mainly because they were shocked by Ling Tian's battle prowess. However, Ling Tian continued to cultivate as he pleased.
On the morning of the second day, someone knocked on Ling Tian's door. Hearing this, Ling Tian was a little surprised. He wasn't familiar with the people here, so who would come looking for him? But he still opened the door.
"It's you!" Ling Tian looked at the people outside the door in shock. "What's wrong? Can't I come?" The person who knocked on the door asked.
"Hanxue, if you came here for yesterday, then please leave. You asked for it.”Seeing this, Ling Tian replied in a similar manner.
"Don't be so quick to ask me to leave. I'm here to apologize to you. It was my fault yesterday. Also, I came to deliver the medicine to you.”Han Xue's cold attitude changed as she took out a small jade bottle and passed it to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian took a whiff of the fragrance of a woman on the jade bottle. Although he knew that the pill was extremely precious, or else Han Xue wouldn't have kept it by her side, he only took a glance before shaking his head,""No need. My injury is only a light one. It's almost healed. You should use the medicine on the person who was injured yesterday.”"Oh!" Han Xue replied disappointedly and put away the jade bottle.
Suddenly, she looked at Ling Tian and asked,"Can we have a good chat?"”Ling Tian did not reply and walked straight to the stone table in the courtyard. He circulated his battle qi and heated up the tea on the table, preparing to take a cup.
"Let me do it." Seeing this, Han Xue quickly picked up her teacup and poured a cup for Ling Tian, then another cup for herself.
Ling Tian looked at Han Xue as she walked over with a cup of tea in her hand. Seeing this, Han Xue also picked up her teacup, but she did not drink it and instead placed her attention on Ling Tian.
After a long while, Ling Tian put down his teacup and looked at Han Xue,""If you have something to say, just say it. This is not your personality.”
Hearing this, Han Xue lowered her teacup and looked at Ling Tian solemnly,""I want to ask you for advice on swordsmanship. Can you teach me?”
"Swordsmanship?" Hearing this, Ling Tian was slightly surprised, but he shook his head,""The sword is used to kill people. There is no swordsmanship to speak of. As long as you think that the way you use the sword to kill people is the best swordsmanship.”
"Ah!" Han Xue opened her mouth in surprise, but she was afraid to cover it with her hands. The sword technique that Ling Tian spoke of surpassed her understanding of the sword. She had never heard of such a thing before. After recovering from her shock, she asked,""But swords are not necessarily used to kill people!”
"Not killing?" Hearing this, Ling Tian shook his head and did not reply. Instead, he said something that Han Xue could not understand,""Do you have a sword in your heart?"
"Ah!" Han Xue was surprised and asked,""What do you mean by having a sword in your heart?"
Ling Tian shook his head and said," How can you learn the sword without a sword in your heart? Not only were swords used to kill, but weapons were also used to kill. This was the reason why weapons were created. A weapon that didn't kill was not a weapon. It was just a decoration. How can you say that you have a sword or weapon in your heart if you don't even know what it is or what it is used for? How can you use it well without it?”
After saying that, he ignored Han Xue, who was deep in thought. He picked up his teacup and took a sip before continuing,"I don't have any sword arts here. Sword arts depend on the sword and the person. People are different, and their sword arts are different. You have your sword, and I have mine. I can only teach you basic sword moves. Do you want to learn them?”
Hearing this, Han Xue finally woke up from her thoughts and looked at Ling Tian,""Learn."
"Alright." Ling Tian nodded his head and picked up a branch from the ground,""The sword master can chop, slash, stab, and pick. I'll demonstrate it for you. Pay attention to my figure and hand gestures.”As he spoke, Ling Tian performed a basic ritual for Han Xue. "Alright, do it again."
Ling Tian said to Han Xue. "That simple?" Han Xue asked. "Simple! You'll understand once you try." Hearing this, Ling Tian smiled and said,"Let's try it out first."”
Hearing this, Han Xue frowned, but she still took the sword and tried it out. "Stop, don't move." Ling Tian called out to Han Xue after she stabbed out with her sword. He then walked to her side and said,""When stabbing, not only do you have to use force with your hand, but you also have to use force with your arm.”He patted Han Xue's slender arm and ignored her blushing face.""Also, when you stab, your ancestors have to be sideways. This way, you'll be more powerful and won't be attacked by others.”As he spoke, he pinched Han Xue's shoulder. After that, he said,"Let's do it again."”
An hour later, Ling Tian looked at Han Xue, who was sweating profusely, and said,""Let's call it a day. Come back tomorrow.”Han Xue blushed and nodded. She would be molested by him again tomorrow.
Days passed by quickly like this. In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. Physical contact was inevitable during sword practice. Han Xue no longer blushed like she did at the beginning. Instead, she felt a strange feeling in her heart.
However, she was not an ordinary woman. Other than being gentle to Ling Tian, she did not speak much to him. Furthermore, she had also discovered the gains she had gained from her sword training, and would occasionally drag Ling Tian to spar with her. However, she would not lose every time, nor would she lose.
On this day, when the two of them were sparring, Ling Tian felt that something was amiss. He suddenly shouted,""Run, run quickly. Inform the others to run quickly.”
"What's wrong? There's nothing wrong. Why are you running away?”Han Xue asked, her eyes filled with doubt.
"Demonic beasts, a large number of demonic beasts are attacking this place!”Ling Tian replied loudly. After saying that, he hurriedly said,"Hurry up, it's still urgent now. Hurry up!"”
"But nothing happened?" Han Xue continued to ask. Seeing this, Ling Tian frowned and flew over to call for everyone.
"What's the matter? Why did you call everyone out?”someone asked unhappily when they came to the door.
"The demon beasts are here. Everyone, run! Also, call those who haven't come, hurry up!”Hearing this, Ling Tian looked around and realized that there were still more than half of the people who had yet to speak.
