That night, Linlong was sitting alone in his room. As the direct descendant of the family and the number one genius of the family, he was treated quite well. He had a quiet little courtyard alone, and there were some flowers and plants in the courtyard for viewing.
At this moment, in the room, Lin Yao, as a servant, was not as arrogant as he was to Steward Liu. He was bowing and reporting the information he had collected."Young Master, I've been following your instructions and keeping a close eye on that trash. Perhaps he's suddenly enlightened and can cultivate now. He definitely won't pose any threat. Don't worry, I've already confirmed that he's chosen the 'Cross Sword Technique'.”
Meanwhile, Linlong, who had been standing at the same spot, had changed his gentle and refined appearance. He could not help but have a gloomy expression."It would be fine if this trash lived a peaceful life, but he actually wants to turn the world upside down. A toad lusting after swan meat. Let's see how you end up choosing this sword technique.”
But soon, Linlong paced back and forth a few more steps and muttered to himself,"Taking the sword technique will at most cripple him. He's still alive, but what if he loses the sword technique?”As he spoke, he couldn't help but smile slightly. His appearance was quite warm, and it didn't look like he was scheming against others at all.
After thinking about the whole plan, he said to Lin Yao,""Oh right, you can go find Lin Yang, Lin Yong, and Lin Ce. I think you should know what to do.”
"Yes, yes, this subordinate understands." Lin Yao walked out of the small courtyard respectfully.
At this moment, Lin Xun had no idea that Lin Long had set up a plot against him so quickly. Instead, he rushed to the back of the mountain in high spirits. Of course, he had already abandoned the dense forest. After all, that was a place to destroy corpses.
The back of the mountain was very large. With Lin Xun's familiarity with the back of the mountain, he soon found a cliff. The terrain was relatively flat, and the location was large. It was more than enough for him to practice his swordsmanship.
The most important thing was that no one would come to disturb this place. The confidentiality was quite good, which made Lin Xun quite satisfied.
The cliff covered an area of 30 meters. Because it was located in the back of the light, it was quite cool. Looking down, one could see the entire Qingyun Town. As far as the eye could see, one could even see the mountains in the distance.
"I will be at the top of the mountain, looking at the small mountains.”
Only by standing at the peak could one appreciate the true scenery. Such a beautiful scenery made Lin Xun feel extremely proud. Qingyun Town was only a corner of this mainland, but there was such a beautiful scenery. Then what would the entire mainland be like?
However, determination soon appeared in Lin Xun's eyes. He knew that if he wanted to climb to the peak and look down on all living things, there was only one way. He was too weak now, and he still needed to work hard.
Even more outstanding geniuses were still working hard. If he was satisfied with the small achievements in front of him, what qualifications did he have to climb up? Only those who could endure loneliness and solitude and had unwavering perseverance could be called experts.
Those who thought that they could only become experts with divine techniques were just a group of clowns. Every expert who could be praised had experienced endless hardships and killings.
Thinking of this, Lin Xun instantly cut off the messy thoughts in his heart and seriously began to learn the "Cross Sword Technique" that he had just obtained today.
Every martial arts secret manual that could be passed down had its own uniqueness. It gathered the wisdom of the seniors. Lin Xun maintained a certain degree of respect for those people.
Opening this sword art that exuded an ancient aura, the opening revealed a thick atmosphere:
The Cross Sword Technique was based on the Dao of Heaven and Earth and was divided into vertical and horizontal swords. To attack with a sword horizontally in order to gain the upper hand is called a sword; To attack the enemy with the sword in order to achieve the actual situation is to close the door. It is the way of heaven and earth.
Lin Xun couldn't help but yearn for such majestic words. In his mind, it seemed that an expert was practicing this sword technique under the sun and moon. Every move and every move contained all kinds of mysteries.
However, Lin Xun was quickly awakened by himself. He looked at the ordinary sword technique in his hand and recalled the scene just now. His first thought was that this sword technique was not simple, so he immediately began to study it more seriously.
He raised his breath, swung his sword, turned around, and raised his sword…
Because Lin Xun didn't have a master to guide him, he could only rely on himself to figure everything out. Therefore, the process of learning sword techniques was rather boring. He had to practice every move and move repeatedly, and he also had to look for his shortcomings by comparing them with the sword manual.
However, the learning difficulty of the [Cross Sword Technique] was much more difficult than he had imagined. Even though his basic sword technique had been perfected, there were still many parts that he could not understand. He could only rely on the process of practicing the sword to figure it out.
This shocked Lin Xun. One had to know that he could even practice a few steps in his mind with a casual flip of the " Qingfeng Sword Technique " in the Technique Hall. If he held it in his hand, he could learn it in less than three to five days.
However, just the first move had taken Lin Xun an entire afternoon. One could imagine how difficult it was.
However, Lin Xun's eyes flashed with a bright light and were filled with surprise. Because it was difficult to comprehend, it meant that the power of this sword technique was extremely great. Lin Xun was even certain that as long as he used this move, people of the same realm would not be able to withstand it.
In fact, even if the opponent's realm was higher than his, he would be able to resist a little under such a sword technique and find the opponent's weakness.
In the blink of an eye, half a month passed quietly.
The setting sun shone in Qingyun Town, making the town exude a warm feeling. On the cliff, Lin Xun stood alone with a sword in his hand.
The wooden sword that had been with him for ten years was still in his hand. However, this wooden sword seemed to be even stronger than the iron sword. As Lin Xun waved it, it emitted waves of hissing sounds.
After a long time, he finished practicing a set of sword techniques. Lin Xun let out a long breath and put away his sword. He looked at the wish and sighed softly,"No wonder no one has ever succeeded in cultivating this sword technique before. I've been learning this sword technique for half a month, but I've only just begun to understand it.”
After half a month of hard work, Lin Xun had discovered that this sword technique was not complete at all. It only had the vertical sword technique and lacked the horizontal sword. Therefore, it could only be called the vertical sword technique. If the sword technique was complete, its power would be unimaginable.
However, although the sword technique was incomplete, it was impossible for a vertical sword technique to only be at the level of a low-grade yellow-class. Perhaps it was because no one had been able to successfully cultivate it for too long, and it was incomplete, so it was gradually ignored by others, which benefited Lin Xun at this moment.
Now, Lin Xun was quite grateful to Lin Long. If it wasn't for his words, Lin Xun wouldn't have made up his mind to choose the Crisp Sword Technique. So what if he got the Clear Wind Sword Technique back? He was familiar with it in two or three days, but he was still too petty. At that time, even if he wanted to exchange it back, he could only regret it.
Moreover, good things came in pairs. After such a long time of persistent sword practice and ten years of accumulation, his realm had broken through to the third layer of tempered body in one go. Moreover, his foundation was quite solid. As long as he cultivated hard, he would be able to develop Qi sense.
This made Lin Xun quite excited. At the same time, a cold light flashed in his eyes."Linlong, I didn't expect you to give me an opportunity. Don't worry, I'll definitely use this sword art to repay you for your hospitality over the years.”
Looking at the sky, it was getting late. It was indeed time to go back. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, Lin Xun slowly embarked on the journey back.
On the other side, Lin Yong had almost gone crazy. At that time, Lin Yao quickly issued a mission, but Lin Yang was already dead and could be considered missing. Lin Ce was not around, and the reward was quite generous. Lin Yong could not help but be greedy and accept the mission alone.
Then, he began to patiently search for Lin Xun, hoping to find an opportunity to steal that sword technique.
One had to know that although a low-grade yellow-tier manual was nothing to the Lin family, if it was lost, they would also receive a rather serious punishment.
The direct descendants of the family would only be reprimanded slightly, and the branches would be confined. This was not a big deal.
The most important thing was the servants. If they were lost, the lightest punishment would be breaking their limbs and expelling them from the family. They would never be able to cultivate for the rest of their lives. In serious cases, they would be executed. There was no human rights to speak of.
As for Lin Xun, although he was the adopted son of the family in name, no one really took him seriously. When Lin Long casually manipulated him, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Unfortunately, Lin Xun had been too engrossed in the Crisp Sword Technique during this period of time. He almost never returned to the Lin family and stayed in the back mountain. Anyway, he was just a vague person. It didn't matter if he went back or not.
This kind of thing that didn't go back often happened in the past, but Lin Yong had it tough. Even if he searched the entire Lin family, he couldn't find any traces of Lin Xun. He even came to Lin Xun's favorite mountain forest, but he went to Lin Kong.
Even though he was guarding Lin Xun's residence every day, he regretfully discovered that the other party had no intention of returning. At this moment, he suddenly remembered that in the past ten years, he could only see Lin Xun when he was paying his monthly salary.
This made him despair. If he dragged it out for a month, it would be too late. Moreover, it would mean that his mission had failed. How would Lin Long view him then? This was simply unimaginable.
As time went by, Lin Yong's heart went from earning a fortune to regret now, and it turned into resentment. In his mind, all of this was Lin Xun's fault. Why didn't he come and steal the secret manual for him? Did he want him to die?
As a servant being targeted by the young master, the consequences were unimaginable.
Therefore, Lin Yong's heart was almost dead now. He wandered around Qingyun Town and quietly waited for the next trial.
All of a sudden, Lin Yong's eyes lit up, and even some tears welled up in his eyes, because he had discovered Lin Xun, whom he had not seen for half a month.
