The moment I entered the Yuelong Pool, I obviously felt that the rules around me began to change, which were more complicated and profound than those of the Nether, and the divine aura shrouded in the top of my head still did not dissipate. ”

"You're the machine spirit senior?"

"Exactly. ”

With his hands behind his back, he said with a detached momentum, "Can you start breaking through the Nine Heavens? You have already wasted nearly a hundred breaths of time, and if you can't get out of the Nine Heavens in two hours, you will be beaten back to the Nether, understand?"

"Understood, let's get started!"

I clenched my fist lightly and nodded.

The old man stretched out his hand, and the scene in front of me changed instantly, I fell into the bottom of a huge pool, and the smoke and waves were as vast as the ocean, and the sunlight shone in, which was particularly dazzling, and the sky seemed to be divided into pieces, with a total of nine layers, and the gaps between each layer were insurmountable, thus forming the Nine Heavens.

The body fluttered lightly, even if there was no Wang Li, he could still walk in the air.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

I coughed lightly, pulled out the fairy bone sword, and used it on the ground as a crutch, and walked step by step into the first day.

The old man frowned and said, "Are you poisoned?"

"Exactly, Nine Strange Poisons. ”

"The Nether Realm actually has nine strange poisons?"

"In fact, it was a person from the upper realm who broke through the boundary, and I fought with him until the end before I was poisoned. ”

"What?"

The old man seemed to be a little angry, and said, "Which one is it?"

"Immortal Pavilion. ”

"Hmph, the despicable villain of the Immortal Pavilion......" The old man was slightly angry, and said, "Child, do you know who I am?"

"Who are the seniors?"

"I existed in the Dragon Realm 50,000 years ago, and because I was sanctified, my holy soul was immortal after death, and I became the guiding instrument spirit of the Dragon Realm Leaping Dragon Pool, in other words, I am an ancient person in your realm. ”

As he spoke, his gaze softened, and he said, "It seems that you were poisoned by fighting for the Nether, in this case, I can exempt you from some difficulties, but the Nine Heavens Test still can't be abolished, do you want to choose to break through the Nine Heavens with strength, or by skill?"

"Let's be a coincidence. I smiled helplessly: "Senior, you have also seen, I don't even have the strength to kill a chicken, if the predecessor summons me a master to fight, I will lose in one move." ”

The old man nodded and smiled: "That's right, the old man can see that you have cultivated quite deeply in the way of the sword, in this case, according to the ancient rules of the Nine Heavens of the Leaping Dragon Pool, the old man will consider you with the Nine Heavens of the Sword Dao, and only test the rules, if you can pass, you can also get out of the Leaping Dragon Pool and enter the upper realm, are you willing?"

I couldn't ask for it: "Yes!"

"Let's go inside!"

After stepping out of the first layer of the Nine Heavens in the real sense, the surrounding boundary walls began to become clear, and there were wisps of words surging, and the words contained extremely deep sword intent, and for a while, the sword hearts of all things in my body began to resonate, and there was some kind of synesthesia between all the words around me, and it was only at this moment that the surrounding words quickly dispersed, and a huge disc appeared under my feet, supporting my body and rising into the air, breaking through the first limit and entering the second heaven.

The voice of the old man came: "Yes, the first heaven test is the sensitivity of the sword, you can resonate with the shallow sword path in just one breath, it is already good in the mortal world, and now you have entered the second heaven." ”

……

In the second heaven, there was a quiet all around, and the regular walls seemed to form a mirror, refracting the light, and on a mirror in front of me, wisps of words began to emerge, a total of three lines.

The old man said: "The second level, test your understanding, there is a sword trick here, you need to practice it as quickly as possible, don't take too long, otherwise it will affect your later Seven Heavens passage time." ”

"Understood. ”

I immediately sat down cross-legged, staring at these three lines of words, one by one the words in my heart, through the sword heart of all things to deduce the specific moves, this deduction is quite fruitful, the upper realm of the sword is different from the rules of the lower realm, the style in front of me in the lower realm is at least a super-first-class swordsmanship, but according to the classification of the upper realm, I don't know, but it is also quite complicated.

After a while, open your eyes.

"Alright?" asked the old man.

"Yes. ”

I raised my hand and held the fairy bone sword, although there was no strength, but the blades together also revealed a transcendent sword intent, "swish" A few sword blades slashed through the air, outlining three curves, and suddenly the curves were intertwined, forming a killing move, a blow without the power of the king, but it actually evolved a very terrifying sword intent.

"Not bad, not bad. ”

The old man squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Next, I will send you into the third heaven." ”

The body was raised again, and entered the third heaven, surrounded by scenes of picture scrolls, there were landscapes, people, fields, etc., and the picture scrolls were connected in pairs, forming a coherent sword intent, but for the first time I knew what the third test of the Nine Heavens of the Sword Dao was, and the coherent mastery of sword moves.

Raise the fairy bone sword, do not need to deduce the heart to begin to evolve the sword moves one by one, and will be connected to each other, or advance or retreat, or attack or defend, with the body and the offensive sword moves between the perfect fit, only three times after the practice reached the point of flowing water, suddenly all the picture scrolls dissipated.

The old man of the machine spirit had admiration in his eyes: "Very good, the third heaven has also passed, and then enter the fourth heaven of the sword path." ”

……

In the four heavens, everywhere is vast, the fog is in pieces, nothing can be seen, only the sound of the flute can be heard in the sea of fog, and the sound of the flute is hidden in the mystery of the sword, every turn, ups and downs are like the evolution of sword intent, full of agility and killing atmosphere, I sat down quietly, knowing that this level is not so good, close my eyes, and listen attentively.

I don't know how long it took, I stood up suddenly, grabbed the fairy bone sword and began to swing the drill.

"Huh!"

The sword intent is invisible, piercing through the void. With the dancing sword, the three hidden killing moves were rehearsed one by one, and it was the hidden move in this flute sound.

The move is uncertain, but the sword intent that evolves from the sound of the flute is the same.

"Good!"

The old man appeared, with a faint smile on his face, and said: "Child, do you know that there are very few monks who have chosen the Nine Heavens of the Sword Dao for thousands of years, because the Nine Heavens of the Sword Dao is the most difficult of all the test methods, from the Middle Ages to the present, there are no more than ten people who have walked out of the Leaping Dragon Pool with the Nine Heavens of the Way of the Sword, and the total number of people who have passed this fourth test is not more than 50,000, it is too difficult." ”

"Fifty thousand, that's a lot......" I was speechless.

He laughed, didn't say anything, flicked his sleeves, and led me to the Five Heavens of Kendo.

In the five heavens, it was full of life, surrounded by bushes, woodlands and flowers, and birds chirping in the air, and the atmosphere became bird-singing and fragrant, but I immediately understood that these trees were just illusions, but what was hidden in them was the rules of the sword, just like when I first observed the sword god's sword and one world.

Here, every flower and tree is kendo.

"I think you already know how the test works. ”

The old man smiled and said, "Every time you comprehend a wisp of sword intent, it will naturally dissipate, and when you turn this area into a clear one, you will naturally pass the test." ”

Without saying a word, I sat cross-legged on the ground, turned on the sword heart of all things, and began to observe the plants, flowers and birds around me.

After a few breaths, a small green grass turned into a sky-high sword intent in my eyes, and the "sand" turned into nothingness with a light sound, becoming a cloud of smoke and disappearing in the wind, and then, the surrounding plants and trees showed their true form one by one, and each plant and tree was a sword intent, and it was also a small rule.

This Nine Heavens of the Sword Dao seems to be a test, but it is not a kind of cultivation of the way of the sword, once passed, it will have endless benefits for the mastery of the way of the sword.

Soon, the surrounding flowers, birds, and trees dispersed one by one, and my mastery of the sword path began to sublimate a little, making up for many defects, it seems that this sword path Nine Heavens is the first step for me to enter the upper realm of cultivation, and it is a very precious step, no wonder the Divine Vine Tree will insist that I come to the Nine Heavens, so it is, he must be the first to understand.

"Not bad!"

The old man bowed his head and said: "The old man has not been a kendo wizard like you for more than five hundred years, and now I will send you to the sixth heaven of kendo, remember, guard against arrogance and rashness, the more you go up, the more difficult it becomes." ”

I nodded, "Hmm!"

The ground under his feet began to rise, and in the blink of an eye, he entered the sixth sky, and suddenly the surrounding area turned into a bloody battlefield, one after another crimson figures wielded war swords and fought in the wilderness, thousands of people were killed together, unable to distinguish each other, wisps of sky-high sword intent raged, smashing the crowd, and even the stars in the sky were shaking.

It's so strong, even the Nine Heavens Stars have been shaken, how strong is this sword intent?

This layer is asked. ”

The old man of the machine spirit appeared in the air, the fairy wind bone, a pair of shining eyes looked at me, and said: "The way of the sword is the way of conquest, the way of the king, since ancient times, a hundred soldiers and swords are the head, in your heart, what is the supreme way of the sword?"

I was stunned, was this test just a question and answer?

After pondering for a moment, I looked up at him and replied, "Settle down." ”

"What is stability?"

"With the sword asked, Jingping the world, the final result of all conquests is pacification, the ultimate goal of all killings is to protect, since the way of the sword is the way of conquest, it is naturally the royal road, and the royal way lies in dominating and stabilizing the world. ”

The old man squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "What would you do if you were in charge of the Supreme Sword Dao?"

"Maintain the order of the world, so that the people of the world look up. ”

"Okay, you can go to the Seven Heavens of Kendo!"

His eyes were blazing, and he said, "Child, your knowledge of kendo has surprised the old man. ”

I nodded, but I was thinking in my heart, I don't know how many times I have done this kind of proposition essay in the Academy of All Souls, how can it be wrong, aren't exams like this, at best, don't say bad.
