An old man suddenly walked out of the woods, this old man was dressed in a breeze robe, and there was no momentum on his body, just like an ordinary person. But it was such an ordinary person, but he came to them silently and felt it carefully. The old man seemed to be integrated into the entire Sunset Mountains, as if no one else could find out about his existence unless he wanted to.

"Grandpa, who are you, and what are the natural sword embryos you are talking about. ”

Han Jie asked, he could feel that this old man was very unusual, but he had a sense of intimacy with him. He believed that the old man in front of him had no ill intentions.

"Little baby, do you remember that someone sold you a jasper sword and gave you a copy of the Proud Sword Technique?" said the old man with a smile.

"Remember, do you have anything to do with that old man?" Han Jie began to be wary, few people knew about the jasper sword, and how this old man knew.

"Hahahaha, don't be afraid, the old man has no malice. The person who sold your sword is the old man's junior brother, and the proud sword recipe was created by the old man. ”

"I see, then old man, did you come to me to retrieve the Jasper Sword and the Proud Sword Technique?"

"No, no, no, you're mistaken. Since the thing has been sold to you, it is naturally yours. The old man came this time to take you as an apprentice. The old man patiently explained.

"What kind of apprentice do you accept, old man, don't look at us when we are young, think that we are easy to deceive, say who you are, don't say that you are careful, you are welcome. ”

Sun Mingming, who was on the side, looked at the old man strangely, and quietly appeared. Afraid that the old man would be unfavorable to Han Jie, he took the wooden bow and put the arrow feather on the old man, as long as he had the slightest movement, it would be unfavorable to Han Jie. What came in front of him was Sun Mingming's arrow.

"Hehe, you kid be quiet. ”

The old man waved his right hand slightly, and he didn't know how he did it, and Sun Mingming on the side fainted to the ground.

"Big brother, who the hell are you?"

Han Jie saw that Sun Mingming was stunned, and immediately became anxious. At this time, he didn't care so much, staring at the old man viciously.

"Don't worry, he's fine. The old man just let him sleep for a while. ”

"You haven't answered me yet, who you are, and why you said you wanted to take me as an apprentice. ”

"The old man is the strongest person in the Middle Heaven Kingdom, and I am the one who is known as the proud Sword Saint. The old man's name is Aotian, as for you, you are a natural sword embryo that has not been born for a thousand years. The old man wants to take you as an apprentice and pass on to you what I have learned all my life. ”

"I haven't heard of any Middle Heaven Kingdom. Since you said that you are so powerful, then what realm are you a strong person. ”

Han Jie was still skeptical, not believing that this Aotian was just trying to take him as an apprentice.

"Hahaha, the old man is the perfection of the Heavenly Spirit Realm. ”

Aotian exuded a trace of the coercion of the Heavenly Spirit Realm, and instantly crushed Han Jie to the ground.

"Enough is enough, I believe it. ”

This terrifying pressure was something Han Jie had never encountered in his life, and at that moment, Han Jie only felt that a mountain was pressing on his body, making him unable to move. He believed that if the old man tried to kill him, he would be able to kill him in one breath.

"Since you already believe it, are you willing to worship the old man as a teacher now?"

Putting away the coercion, Aotian still asked Han Jie with a smile. Han Jie patted the dirt on his body, stood up, bowed to Aotian and said.

"Grandpa, I was rude just now. Although you said that I was born with a sword embryo, my dantian was abolished now, and I will not be able to cultivate in the future. It doesn't make sense for you to take me as an apprentice. ”

"Hahahaha, in fact, the old man has been observing you for a long time, and the old man has been secretly watching you every day when you practice swords in the past few months. If you are abolished because of the dantian, you will never recover. The old man naturally won't take care of you, but you can still cultivate so hard when your cultivation is completely lost. This state of mind alone is enough for you to become the apprentice of my proud Sword Saint. ”

"A real strong person does not rely on talent, but on mentality. Without that hard work, no matter how high the talent you are, you will not be able to become a real strong person in the future. Although your cultivation is completely lost now, the old man has a way to help you reforge the dantian and make you a spirit again. ”

"Really? Can I really become a spirit again?"

Han Jie almost cried, all he dreamed of was regaining his strength to avenge his family, and now someone told him that he could help him regain his strength, even if he was asked to do anything, he was willing.

"Of course, if there is no way to help you recast the dantian, how can the old man accept you as an apprentice. ”

"The master is above, please accept the apprentice's worship. ”

There were three heavy knocks on the ground, and even a trace of blood came out of his scalp. Han Jie is now sincerely willing to worship Aotian as a teacher.

"Get up, child. From now on, you are the only apprentice of my Aotian, and the only successor of my Proud Sword Technique. ”

Aotian helped Han Jie, who was kneeling on the ground, and he was also very happy in his heart. Han Jie's character and state of mind are all highly valued by him, even if Han Jie is not born with a sword embryo, he is willing to accept Han Jie as an apprentice.

"Master, that my eldest brother... ”

"Let's talk about it for a while, I'll tell you something now. ”

"Okay, the apprentice is also very curious, master, what is the innate sword embryo you said?"

"The innate sword embryo is a kind of physique, and there are many physiques on this Heavenly Spirit Continent, such as: Innate Pharmacist and Innate Craftsman, these two types of people have a higher talent than ordinary people for refining medicine and building from birth, most of the people with special physique are some alchemists, and there are some charmers and array mages who are builders. Only a very small percentage of people have a special constitution related to weapons, and these people are born with a unique understanding of a certain weapon. Among them, the innate sword embryo has not produced one in thousands of years. ”

"Silly boy said this, maybe you don't understand, in layman's terms, your current sword intent has reached the second realm of sword intent: grass and trees are swords. Generally, a slightly talented swordsman, no twenty or thirty years of cultivation can't reach this step at all, think about how old you are, this is the benefit that the innate sword embryo brings to you. ”

"Grass and trees are swords, how many realms does the master's sword intent have?" Han Jie asked.

"Sword intent is divided into five realms, namely: sword intent into the heart, grass and trees as swords, human and sword unity, everything is a sword, and there is no self and no sword. Each realm is subdivided into: subtle, small, large, and complete. Now you are in the realm of grass and trees. "Many people don't know this knowledge, and Aotian, who is a sword saint, naturally knows it.

"Then master, what's the difference between these realms?"

"Grass and trees are swords, as the name suggests, every grass and tree around you can be turned into a sword in your hand, and there is not much difference in each small realm, but the power is just the size. The unity of man and sword refers to the fact that in this realm, people are swords and swords are people, regardless of each other. Even if you don't have a sword in your hand, you can turn into a sword to fight the enemy, and from subtlety to perfection is your understanding of the sword. Everything is a sword, and the swordsmen who have reached this realm are not ten people in the entire Heavenly Spirit Continent. At this time, everything in the weather can be a sword in your hand, and the mountains, rivers, sun and moon, and heavenly aura can be used as a sword by you. From subtlety to perfection is when you control the changes in everything in the world. And the highest level of selflessness and no sword as a teacher is not clear, and the teacher has only reached the perfect realm of all things being swords. As for the selfless swordless legend, only a swordsman born with a sword embryo can touch it. After Aotian finished speaking, he stopped talking, many things needed to be digested by Han Jie himself.

"I know master, you can rest assured that I will definitely achieve that final sword intent in the future, and I will not let you down. ”

At first, Han Jie only thanked Aotian for giving him hope of recovering his strength. Now Han Jie respects Aotian from the bottom of his heart, and it is he who has opened a new door for Han Jie, allowing Han Jie to have a further understanding of himself and the Heavenly Spirit Continent.

"Well, as a teacher, I believe you will be able to do it. Okay, now it's time for us to go, there's no way to help you reforge the dantian here. ”

"Ahh ”

"Silly boy, your eldest brother has your eldest brother's way to go, and only when you both grow up can you better fight side by side in the future. You can rest assured that your eldest brother is also a rare cultivation wizard, and the teacher will find him a good master. ”

"Then trouble the master to wake up my eldest brother, so that we can at least say goodbye. ”

"Okay. ”

I saw Aotian wave his hand, and Sun Mingming, who was still drowsy just now, woke up.

"Where am I? What's going on. ”

Sun Mingming was still a little confused, and after waking up, he looked around and looked around, his eyes were a little confused.

"Big brother, you woke up, you suddenly fainted just now, and it was my master who woke you up. Han Jie didn't want to tell him the truth, so he made up a random reason.

"Master, second brother, do you mean that you worship this old man as a teacher?"

At this time, Sun Mingming was also completely awake, and he remembered everything that happened just now, he only remembered that he was holding a bow at Aotian, and he didn't know how he could fall asleep.

"Big brother, my master is very powerful, he has a way to help me restore my dantian, so that I can continue to cultivate. ”

"Really? That's great, the old man was wrong with me just now, you can help my second brother regain his strength, you are my Sun Mingming's biggest benefactor." ”

After speaking, Sun Mingming knelt in front of Aotian and kept kowtowing to him, his Sun Mingming's greatest wish was to help Han Jie recover his strength. Now that someone can do it, he is even happier than Han Jie.

"Okay, get up, kid. As soon as Aotian waved his hand, a gust of wind helped Sun Mingming up.

"Big brother, the master said that he would take me somewhere else to help me recover my strength. I'm afraid I won't be able to see my eldest brother for a long time. ”

"It's okay, it's okay, second brother, as long as you can recover your strength, big brother, I'll wait for you to come back in the Sunset Mountains." ”

"It's not big brother, my master said that he can help you find a master to teach you to cultivate. ”

"That's great, presumably the person introduced by your master must also be a master. ”

Sun Mingming stared at Aotian directly, his saliva almost stayed, now that Han Jie's problem is solved, he can still find a master by the way, wouldn't it be a good thing that pie in the sky will fall from the sky.

"Don't be too happy, boy, you take this token and go to the Fire Leaving Sect in the south to find someone named the Fire Leaving Dao Man. There are more than a thousand miles to go here, and no one will help you with the dangers encountered along the way, which can be regarded as some tests for you, you have to remember that the strong grow up between life and death, and now you are still willing to go. ？”

"Willing, of course willing, don't say a thousand miles, even if it's ten thousand miles, I'm willing to go. ”

"Hahahaha, remember not to offend people easily along the way, with your strength in the elixir realm, there are as many people who can kill you in this heaven and earth. ”

After Aotian explained everything to Sun Mingming, he took Han Jie away. And Sun Mingming also took the token given by Aotian and embarked on a long journey to find a teacher.
