The snow fell overnight, and it stopped until dawn.

The snow flew overnight, and the jade tree became Qiongke. Under the rain and flowers in the Yi Garden, the sword light is cold, and the snow is flying.

Qingyue held the Aoki sword in her hand, and focused on attacking Ye Qingchen, who was dressed in silver on the opposite side.

Turning, staggering, slashing, stabbing ...... The sword momentum is vertical and horizontal, the figure is fluttering, and there are occasional fine snow foams, which are aroused by the sword qi, such as meteors flying stones, hitting directly on the tall rain and flower trees, but seeing the white butterflies dancing and fluttering, they are all raised, such as falling plums thousands of points.

Qing Yue, who was stuffed in the sword momentum, was not comfortable, and the person on the opposite side was just holding a flower branch in his hand, and his cultivation had also been pressed to the stage of refining qi, but it was like an insurmountable mountain, allowing himself to take care of everything and use thousands of means, and he would not move. I saw the flower branch lightly, like a butterfly falling on the stamen, flapping its wings gently, and it could hit Qingyue's right shoulder that had no time to defend. Qingyue's long sword left his hand, the castration remained unchanged, and he still stabbed obliquely at the right knee of the man in white. But seeing the man in white moving slightly, he took a step forward abruptly, avoiding the tip of the sword, and his body fell behind Qing Yue, but the flower branch in his hand shot backwards, still on Qing Yue's right shoulder. Qingyue couldn't dodge, the Aoki sword had just started, and he was about to change his move, but he felt a trembling right arm, a stinging pain in his shoulder, and the sword in his hand almost couldn't hold it.

didn't care about the injury, and pressed down obliquely, like a willow branch in the spring breeze, fluttering to the left. At the same time, the divine sense controlled the Aoki sword, still stabbing at the right knee of the man in white. The man in white staggered slightly, the Aoki sword flew over his knees, his wrist twisted slightly, and the flower branch left his hand and shot towards Qingyue, who was turning in the air. Qing Yue hung in the air, and he couldn't see the movements of the man in white. But as if he felt something, his flipped body floated upwards suddenly, and at the same time pressed down with his right palm, just fishing out the flying flower branches.

Qingyue spun in mid-air with the strength of the flower branches, and landed lightly, showing the lightness of her footwork. The man in white also stopped, a smile in his eyes.

Qingyue looked down at the flower branch in her hand, a little incredulous. Just now, she didn't have time to think at all, her body made movements in the air that she hadn't thought of, but it was naturally like her own instinctive reaction, and she happened to catch the flower branch.

"This is the fighting spirit?" Qingyue looked up at Ye Qingchen, the man in white, but suddenly felt that his body was sore and tired, and he was in pain everywhere, and it was very difficult to stand like this. Since entering the Tianyin Pavilion, except for the three months when he broke through the retreat, his daily cultivation courses have been full. Practice swords in the morning, learn some formations in the afternoon, and meditate and practice in the evening. Qingyue felt that the most difficult thing was to practice Ye Qingchen's swordsmanship every morning from midnight to midnight, which was basically an hour when she was constantly beaten! Although the other party also suppressed the cultivation to the Qi refining period, he did not use sword intent, not even a sword, and he was not at all his opponent who had only practiced sword for two years. And Ye Qingchen's shots are getting faster and heavier, and he never seems to have considered that she is just a six-year-old girl.

Ye Qingchen leaned over and picked up Qingyue and walked towards the house: "Battle intent is an extremely important talent when sword cultivation is fighting, being able to detect danger in time without being discovered. It is like instinct to anticipate the enemy's opportunity, strike first, and seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. I know it's a bit harsh on you, but you have little combat experience, and it's hard to fight people. This is the fastest way to improve swordsmanship, and the human body also has the ability to remember, and through constant pain, it can make the flow of sword momentum and dodge become the instinct of the body. ”

"Shhh Ye Qingchen's hand touched the wound, Qingyue only felt a pain in her bones, as if she was about to drill into her heart, and couldn't help but scream. At this hour today, she can still stand, which is already a good progress! Although, these days, her swordsmanship has indeed improved rapidly, but this process is really miserable.

Ye Qingchen frowned: "I am measured when I shoot, I won't hurt my body at all, just soak in a medicinal bath for a while!" ”

(Qingyue: You might as well not say this!) Don't say, I don't know yet, it turns out that you did it on purpose! ）

Having said that, Ye Qingchen still carefully removed his hand and hugged Qingyue tightly in the inner room. In the room, a medicinal bath has been prepared for a long time. There are a lot of healing drugs in the medicated bath, which can dissipate stasis and pain.

As usual, Ye Qingchen took matters into his own hands and untied the Qingyue Outer Cedar, leaving only his underwear. At first, Qingyue would feel embarrassed, but then she thought about it, anyway, she was still a child, so she didn't need to pay attention to these, and she really didn't have the strength to think about it, so she didn't bother to bother with it.

The familiar feeling of sour and numb spread on her body, and Qingyue knew that it was the medicinal power that was working. After a while, the exhaustion and soreness were gone, and a gentle spiritual power entered from behind, flowing through the various spiritual points one by one. Everywhere the spiritual power passed, only to feel an extremely relaxed and comfortable feeling spreading, Qingyue closed her eyes, and felt an urge to fall asleep. She knew that this was Ye Qingchen using secret methods to warm up her meridians with spiritual power. The process of this secret method is cumbersome, and the cultivation of the person who needs to cast the spell is much higher than that of the other party, and there is no room for error, Ye Qingchen has always done it himself. But the benefits are also huge, it can repair the dark injuries accumulated during the cultivation process and broaden the meridians, which is equivalent to directly reducing the bottleneck of advancement.

Yes, although the cultivation is hard, Qingyue has never complained, firstly, complaining may not be useful, and secondly, Ye Qingchen is indeed well-intentioned.

The newly born secret realm, because it has not yet been explored, its value is incalculable, and it often attracts the eager attention of major forces. In order to try to avoid disputes, the cultivation realm has its own set of rules for the right to explore the secret realm. Usually, half of the large sects in the area where the secret realm is located, and the nearby immortal cultivation families, small sects, and scattered cultivation alliances that do not depend on the sect to survive will equally share the remaining share.

Casual cultivation in this world is not completely helpless, and most casual cultivators will join the Casual Cultivation Alliance. The Scattered Cultivation Alliance is a loose association organization, it does not provide cultivation resources for its members like the Xiuzhen Sect, and it does not have a fixed place, only a few elders maintain the daily affairs of the association, and participate in the distribution of interests in the cultivation world on behalf of the group of Scattered Cultivators.

For a big family like the three major families of Tianyin Pavilion that is completely integrated into the Xiuzhen sect, almost all the disciples in the clan will join the sect, and they will participate in the exploration of the secret realm through Tianyin Pavilion.

For the Zhushan Secret Realm, it has been discovered that at that time, there was a secret realm for disciples in the Qi refining period and the foundation building period in ancient times. The secret realm is composed of two parts, one part is the trial place for the disciples of the Qi refining period, and the other part is the trial place for the disciples of the foundation building stage. As for the internal situation, it is not clear at the moment.

For safety reasons, in the secret realm, most monks will team up with acquaintances or people of the same clan to explore, especially the children of the family.

The Ye family attached great importance to this exploration, and after determining the list of participants, they specially prepared some talismans, pills and magic weapons for the disciples who participated in the trial. Of course, they need to keep a map of the area they have explored, in case the family needs it.

After the list came out, Qing Yue learned that there were a total of six Qi refining stage disciples who participated in the trial, except for Qing Yue, there was only one inner disciple, and the other four were all outer disciples. That inner disciple's name is Ye Cong, and he is a disciple of the Twin Spirit Root of the Split Family, who is seventeen years old this year, and has cultivated in the Great Perfection of Qi Refining Period. The four outer disciples, two men and two women, are also separate disciples.

Ye Cong was the captain of the Ye family's Qi Refining Period team this time, and he sent a summons to several people early in the morning, inviting them to meet at the door of the deacon hall. Choose a task, go out together, get acquainted with each other, and get acquainted with each other, so that you can cooperate tacitly.

Qingyue also received a summons, so she hurriedly left the medicinal bath and rushed towards the deacon hall.

Ye Qingchen watched Qingyue leave, turned around and made a gesture towards the open space, his lips moved slightly, but he couldn't hear the sound, thinking that he was transmitting the sound.

Then, several black figures came out of nowhere, like a wisp of green smoke, in the direction that Qingyue left, and disappeared in a flash.

As soon as the heavy snow stopped, on the winding mountain road, there were already miscellaneous disciples who cleaned up the snow.

A man and a woman stood at the entrance to the deacon's hall. The man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, dressed in the white clothes often worn by inner disciples, with a slender and straight body, bright starry eyes, sword eyebrows, and more and more radiant in the sun. The woman beside him was dressed in a plain green shirt, with long bangs on her forehead, and she looked like she was about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Qing Yue looked at it, the male cultivator was about the peak of the Qi Refining Period, and the female was the twelfth layer of the Qi Refining Period.
