The sword spirit was still asleep, and Zhang Tao did not wake it up.

Although the sword spirit said that the loss of soul energy did not matter much at all, through the observation of the past few days, Zhang Tao already knew the importance of soul energy to the sword spirit.

Therefore, at his repeated requests, the sword spirit entered a deep sleep state, which helped it recover its soul energy even more.

The night was very quiet, with a few insects chirping around and a few beast roars in the distance.

The moon in the sky is still so bright.

Looking at the moon in the sky, Zhang Tao thought of Yucheng again.

The moon in Hajo must be brighter than the moon here.

Zhang Tao sighed.

As the saying goes, look up at the bright moon and bow your head to think of your hometown.

It's been almost a year since I came out of Yucheng, and so much has happened in this year.

Zhang Tao sometimes thought that it might be a good thing for Wanyao Pavilion to force him to leave Yucheng.

If it weren't for the pressure brought by the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion, Zhang Tao wouldn't necessarily be so hard in his cultivation, and he wouldn't necessarily be able to recognize the Lord and slash the sword.

Therefore, there are two sides to everything, and we must not only see the negative side of it, but also try to find the good side of it.

Shaking his head and throwing away all kinds of thoughts in his head, Zhang Tao turned his head to look at Shangguan Shuaishuai.

Zhang Tao didn't expect that he and Shangguan Shuai would get along so well and fall in love.

Thinking of the scene when he caught up with the official handsome and left, the corners of Zhang Tao's mouth showed a smile.

Shangguan Shuai turned his head and saw Zhang Tao looking at him and smiling.

"What are you laughing at?" he said, looking at himself, "there's nothing wrong with that." ”

Shangguan Shuaishuai's movements made Zhang Tao feel more funny, and laughter kept coming.

It was the day he had the most laughs since leaving Hashiro.

He found that when he was with Shangguan Shuaishuai, there were endless laughs.

When I was with Shi Biao and Hu Mei, because my cultivation was still very weak at that time, I had to be vigilant against danger at all times, so where I had time to joke, I was always very serious.

Sometimes, when you smile, your mood will change well.

Zhang Tao looked at Shangguan Shuaishuai's increasingly ugly face, and tried his best to hold back his laughter, but in the end, he still couldn't hold back and still laughed.

Shangguan Shuai Shuai frowned and looked at Zhang Tao, "Are you sick?" As he spoke, he reached out and touched Zhang Tao's forehead.

"It's okay, why is it like this. ”

Zhang Tao tried to calm down, "I suddenly thought of the scene when I drove you away, so I couldn't help but laugh." ”

While speaking, Zhang Tao couldn't help laughing.

Shangguan Shuaishuai's face was even more ugly, "You still have the face to say that I was so desperate to follow you at that time, but you, you won't let me follow you even if you are killed." ”

"You dare to say that you didn't have any other purpose in following me at that time. ”

Zhang Tao's words made Shangguan Shuai Shuai speechless.

Indeed, he wanted to follow Zhang Tao at that time, just to know how Zhang Tao found him.

The night passed in the words of the two men.

The eastern sky gradually revealed the whiteness of the fish's belly. When the first rays of sunlight fell on the earth, the two men stood up.

Although there was no rest for the night, both of them were in good spirits.

Seeing that the sky gradually lit up, Shangguan Shuai Shuai said, "How long will it take you to return to Yucheng." ”

Zhang Tao thought for a while, "I'm not sure, but it should be within a year." ”

Judging from the growth rate of his current cultivation, in one year's time, he should have a certain strength, and then he can do it for self-preservation.

The people in the family agreed and would help him take care of it.

In this way, as long as you have the ability to protect yourself, you can go back to Yucheng to have a look.

"Okay, let's take one year as the deadline, and after one year, we'll see you in Yucheng. ”

"Okay, goodbye Hashiro. ”

Before leaving, Shangguan Shuai Shuai gave Zhang Tao a hug.

Although they haven't been together for a long time, they still have feelings, and now that they are going to separate, it is inevitable that there will be some emotional impact.

"Gone. ”

Looking at Shangguan Shuaishuai's figure gradually walking away, Zhang Tao took a deep breath, "One year!"

We have to speed up our practice.

Now the family's affairs have been buffered by the appearance of Shangguan Shuaishuai, but the threat of the Ten Thousand Medicine Pavilion still exists, and the improvement of cultivation is still the most important.

The weather is getting cooler, and the occasional wind is not so soft, and there will be a biting coolness.

Autumn passed without even realizing it.

Winter is approaching.

"It's been a month since Shuai Shuai left, and he should have arrived in Yucheng by now. ”

Zhang Tao sat with his back against a big tree with a straw in his mouth.

Since he met Shangguan Shuaishuai, he also had this habit, especially after Shangguan Shuaishuai left.

I chewed the straw in my mouth, and a bitter taste jumped to the tip of my tongue.

In the past month, Zhang Tao has been hunting wild beasts in the Forest of Death, and sometimes he will encounter sneak attacks from humans.

During this time, he has been practicing perception, and through this period of effort, his perception ability has improved significantly.

As for martial arts, there has also been a great improvement, and his cultivation has also stabilized in the middle of chivalry.

In addition, during this time, he also obtained a large number of desolate beast crystal nuclei. A small part of it was the beasts he had hunted himself, but a large part was obtained from those who had snuck up on him.

The sword spirit was basically in a state of deep sleep during this time, and only occasionally woke up a few times in the middle.

After discovering that Shangguan Shuai Shuai was not there, the sword spirit had planned to stop sleeping, and it was worried about Zhang Tao's safety.

However, Zhang Tao still refused.

The reason is that with you, I can't feel the real life and death, and I can't get the best tempering.

Zhang Tao's biggest gain during this period is that the nine gravity has improved again.

Although the nine gravity is only a simple function of the internal force, its strength is indeed beyond doubt.

Shake up internal forces, one attack is equivalent to two, three, or even nine attacks, and the time interval between adjacent attacks is very short.

In the same level, who can withstand Zhang Tao's nine consecutive attacks.

Sword Spirit also sighed at the special and powerful nature of this method of action.

The sword spirit has existed for millions of years, and what can make him think powerful is really very powerful.

Everything in the mystical memory is powerful.

Just a simple use of internal force is so powerful, Zhang Tao has already begun to look forward to the martial arts in the mysterious memory.

It's a pity that the martial arts in the mysterious memory need to reach the swordsman level before they can be practiced.

In order to be able to practice the martial arts in the mysterious memory as soon as possible, Zhang Tao's motivation to practice was even greater.

"Poof"

Spit out the straw in his mouth, Zhang Tao jumped up, "I want to sneak attack, look for death." ”

I saw that his body was like an arrow from the string, heading straight for a big tree in front of him.

At the same time as Zhang Tao moved, a figure flashed behind the big tree.

"The ordinary fourth-order desolate beast Shadow Raccoon also wants to sneak up on me. ”

The Shadow Raccoon is an ordinary fourth-order desolate beast, and because it is fast and has a relatively small body, it is not easy to be found, so it likes to sneak attack the most.

Zhang Tao's speed was significantly faster than that of the Shadow Raccoon.

In a short time, Zhang Tao had already reached the back of the shadow civet.

He didn't take out the slashing sword, but put the five fingers of his right hand together, and his fist carried the sound of the wind. Go straight to the Shadow Raccoon.

With a "bang", Zhang Tao's fist slammed into the shadow civet's body.

The Shadow Raccoon screamed and turned towards a large tree.

There was another loud bang, and the body of the shadow raccoon came into close contact with the tree.

"Puff"

The corpse of the Shadow Tanuki fell to the ground.

With one blow, Zhang Tao killed the Shadow Raccoon with a single blow.

Although the shadow raccoon is an ordinary fourth-order desolate beast, it can be killed with one hit, which shows that Zhang Tao's strength has indeed increased a lot during this time.

Looking at the corpse of the shadow raccoon on the ground, Zhang Tao said secretly, "This mountain jumping fist really lives up to its name, and it has the power to jump on the mountain." ”

Because the cultivation of swordsmanship has reached a bottleneck, Zhang Tao asked for this set of boxing techniques from the sword spirit to practice.

Now Zhang Tao has abandoned his swordsmanship in battle, and he is fighting with wild beasts with his bare hands.
