The Violet Spirit Cave Abode.
Ye Chen stood by the window sill, his mind wandering. After a while, he turned his gaze back.
" That guy's cultivation realm shouldn't have reached the Golden Core realm. If he broke through the Heaven's Barrier, the purple spirit wouldn't be able to escape, so he should be at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm or at the half-step Golden Core realm. My Heart Sword can travel a hundred miles with one strike and kill a half-step Golden Core. I wonder what would happen if I met a real Golden Core.”
Ye Chen shook his head slightly.
Speaking of which...
The attack just now had given him 200 experience points, which was a good harvest. After all, that was his first time using a sword, and it could be considered his first battle.
What was slightly regrettable was that the sword he used to imbue the Heart Sword Intent was completely shattered. After all, it was just an ordinary sword. Even if it could carry his Heart Sword Intent, it could not withstand the collision with the Xudan.
"A blade of grass can cut down the sun, moon, and stars…Heh, no wonder it was a blade of grass.”
Ye Chen suddenly understood something and couldn't help but smile.
Ancient sword cultivators only cultivated the Heart Sword. Once the Heart Sword was unleashed, it was the pinnacle of sword intent. There was no concept of protecting the thing it controlled at all.
Even if it was a powerful spiritual sword forged from immortal metal, if one used the Heart Sword to control it, it would inevitably be damaged after a few slashes. Therefore, after the Heart Sword was completed, one could control things at will.
Using the branches as swords, using the leaves as swords!
Moreover…
For the Mind Sword, whatever it was attached to had almost no effect on its power. Whether he used a blade of grass to control the sword or a spiritual sword to slash, the effect was the same.
If he didn't control the physical object at all and slashed purely with the illusory Heart Sword, then what he slashed was his mind and soul, which was a pure soul attack.
The path of ancient sword cultivators was extremely difficult to master. At the same time, it also meant that after one had mastered it, one would not lack any Dao techniques. With a single thought, one could slash through all things and break through all techniques!
Moreover…
The Heart Sword was born in the sea of the heart, and its sensing ability was extremely strong. When Ye Ziling was in a life and death crisis, he naturally sensed it and slashed across a hundred miles.
If someone had malicious intent or killing intent towards him, the closer he was, the stronger his perception would be. It was impossible for anyone to sneak an attack on an ancient Swordsman.
A moment later.
Ye Chen raised his head and looked at the sky outside the window. He could see a beam of light landing in front of the Purple Spirit Cave. It was Ye Ziling, who had returned. She immediately entered her cave to heal herself.
He roughly sensed it with his mind. Ye Ziling should only have used up too much of her spiritual qi, and not too serious of an injury. Ye Chen then calmed himself down and continued to read his book.
……
Several days later.
The main peak of the Purple Cloud Sect.
A purple auspicious aura fell from the sky, dyeing half of the sky with multicolored light. It was the auspicious aura of the Golden Elixir realm Daoist Master, the Purple Cloud Sect Leader, Daoist Master Zi Yun.
After swallowing a Golden Core, one's fate was up to them. If a Golden Core Perfected Being did not deliberately restrain his aura, he would naturally cause a phenomenon in the world as he walked!
Auspicious Qi!
Celebration clouds gathered at the top!
The canopy covered the sun!
This corresponded to the early, middle, and late stages of the Golden Core realm. Generally, the early stage of the Golden Core realm was called Daoist Ruiqi, the middle stage of the Golden Core realm was called Daoist Qingyun, and the late stage of the Golden Core realm was called Daoist Canopy.
The difference between each realm was huge, and the Purple Cloud Sect's Sage Zi Yun was an early stage Golden Core cultivator!
"Sect Leader Senior Brother, you're back."
The Great Elder of the Purple Cloud Sect had been waiting outside the sect's main hall since early in the morning. When he saw Perfected Zi Yun descending in the multicolored light, he immediately went up to greet him.
A young man wearing a purple robe appeared in the light. He looked about the same age as Ye Chen. It was the leader of the Purple Cloud Sect.
"What happened when I wasn't around?”
Daoist Zi Yun asked as he walked forward when he saw the Great Elder.
The Great Elder was personally waiting for him here. It was obvious that something important had happened in the sect during his absence and needed to be reported to him immediately.
The Great Elder immediately walked over and solemnly recounted what had happened a few days ago. He said,"Reporting to Sect Leader Senior Brother, it's like this…"
"Perfected Swordsman?"
Sage Zi Yun was stunned.
" Yes." The Great Elder nodded." He killed a half-step Perfected Being with one sword strike. That must be the means of a Perfected Swordsman. There's no mistake about it. I wonder if it's a senior from my sect…"
Daoist Zi Yun stopped in his tracks, his eyes flickering. He said in a deep voice,""Don't spread this matter, and don't ask too much.”
"Yes."
The Great Elder replied in a low voice, then retreated and left.
Seeing the Great Elder leave, Sage Zi Yun's brows gradually furrowed.""Reverend Swordsman saved Violet Spirit? Who could it be…"
The Great Elder guessed that there was still an old antique alive in the sect. He had attacked with his sword at that time, but Sage Zi Yun knew very well that it was impossible for an old antique in the sect to attack.
Because they were all dead!
He had entered the forbidden grounds of the sect ten years ago. There were only bones inside. The previous Supreme Headmaster and Supreme Elder of the Purple Cloud Sect had all passed away. No one was still alive!
The reason why they would sometimes secretly hint to the outside world that there was an old monster in the sect was to intimidate the other sects so that they would not dare to offend the Purple Cloud Sect. In fact, he was the only Golden Core in the Purple Cloud Sect now!
A Perfected Swordsman was enough to shake the entire Ancient China Continent. It was impossible for him to appear out of thin air.
Who was it?
Sage Zi Yun's eyes were filled with doubt as he walked towards his main hall.
At the same time.
In the north courtyard of the Purple Spirit Cave, under the pavilion, Ye Chen sat on a stone bench. In front of him was a jade teapot and two exquisite teacups.
Sitting opposite Ye Chen was Ye Ziling. Her injuries had already completely recovered. After she came out of her seclusion, she did not visit Yu Cheng first, but came to the north courtyard where Ye Chen lived first.
Ye Chen looked at Ye Ziling and said in a relaxed tone.
"Why did you think of looking for me to taste tea today?”
"I was feeling bored and wanted to chat with you.”
Ye Ziling looked at Ye Chen. She did not know if it was her imagination, but she felt that although Ye Chen had abandoned his cultivation and lost his realm, his every move had become more immortal.
She couldn't help but laugh. She blinked her eyes playfully and said,""I didn't expect you to have more immortal energy after losing your cultivation.”
In front of outsiders, her image as a Purple Spirit Fairy was as cold as an ice mountain. However, in front of Ye Chen, her brother who had relied on her since she was young, she would remove all her pretense and be extremely relaxed, not worrying about the open and secret conflicts between cultivators.
"Cultivation should follow nature."
Ye Chen smiled casually, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea,""Violet Spirit, what have you been up to recently? If you want to tell me, then tell me.”
Ye Ziling didn't stand on ceremony and told him everything that had happened in the past year, including the dangers of fighting for opportunities and the recent incident where she was almost killed by a half-step Perfected Being. Fortunately, a Perfected Swordsman saved her.
"Cultivation is not easy."
Ye Chen sighed.
Listening to Ye Ziling's account of the past year's journey had given him some experience. This peerless genius of the Purple Cloud Sect had not had a smooth cultivation path.
Ye Ziling nodded and said," Cultivation goes against the heavens. Every Golden Core has gone through countless hardships…I wonder who the senior sword cultivator who saved me is. I owe him a karma. If I become a Golden Core in the future, I'll have to repay this karma.”
"There is no need to repay karma between siblings.”
Ye Chen took a sip of tea and chuckled.
Ye Ziling was startled, then immediately pouted her mouth, reached out her small hand and grabbed Ye Chen's cheek, pulling him to the side,""Elder brother, you can't joke about the real person!”
"Good, good, good."
Ye Chen put down his teacup and raised his hands in surrender.
Only then did Ye Ziling let go of her little hand. She then reminded him seriously,""It doesn't matter how you joke with me. Brother, you can't casually say anything outside. I'm serious!”
Looking at Ye Ziling's 'very serious' look, Ye Chen could not help but smile and agree,""Yes, yes, yes. Violet Spirit is right."
