Time is like an arrow, the sun and the moon are like a shuttle.

I don't know how long it has passed, maybe a year, maybe two years, maybe five years.

Tanglin Prefecture has undergone earth-shaking changes.

The first is the Medicine King City, which has become a holy place for many sword cultivators due to the existence of thousands of miles of sword marks.

Thousands of miles of sword marks can be called the best place to improve the realm of swordsmanship, and many sword cultivators have relied on comprehending a trace of sword intent in the sword marks to raise the will of swordsmanship to the entry, and even to the realm of Xiaocheng.

And this place, because of this, a sect was born-Heavenly Trace Sword Sect, named after that Heavenly Sword Mark!

The Heavenly Scar Sword Sect is a new sect, mainly recruiting kendo monks, although its strength and heritage are not as good as the five major sects and the twelve families, but due to the existence of the Ten Thousand Miles Sword Scar, its own conditions are excellent, and it is in the golden period of rapid development.

In just two years, the Heavenly Scar Sword Sect has become a first-line sect under the twelve families, and its strength is also a little famous if it looks at the entire Tanglin Prefecture, and a large number of sword cultivators come to join the Heavenly Scar Sword Sect every year.

Secondly, the Chen family and the Wang family among the twelve families have developed rapidly!

In the Yaowang City incident, the elders, elders and many high-ranking members of the Chen family were slaughtered by Lin Hao with a sword, and only one of the condensation stage monks fled back, and the foundation was greatly damaged.

The Wang family took advantage of the fire to rob, invaded the Chen family headquarters, and went on a killing spree. It is not known what happened later, but it is only known that the two families reached some kind of agreement, became in-laws, and developed together.

Then, in just two years, the two families became the leaders of the twelve families, far surpassing the other ten families, and only weaker than the five major sects.

What happened in this is speculation from outsiders.

Some people say that the Chen family got some kind of big opportunity, and under the threat of the Wang family, they handed over part of the opportunity, and the two families developed together, which led to such a result.

Some people also say that the Chen family curried favor with the Demon Cloud Palace, the Ice and Snow Mountain Villa and the Golden Buddha Temple, and received secret support, which is unknown.

In addition, after experiencing the Lin Hao incident, Fengxian Palace seemed to be ostracized by the remaining three sects, and there were often disciples of Fengxian Palace who were killed while performing tasks outside, and were deliberately targeted by the other three sects.

In this regard, Fengxian Palace has no way, the other party is not coming openly, but yin you, and it is not good to come to the door to ask for an explanation, so you can only swallow this breath in vain.

The Wuji Dao Sect chose to protect himself, did not participate, did not support, and did not help anyone, but retained a glimmer of life.

It's just that anyone with a discerning eye can see that Fengxian Palace is targeted, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to stabilize it next.

The source of all this, Lin Hao, seems to have really disappeared since that war.

1 month, 2 months, 6 months, 1 year, 2 years...... Spring goes to spring, flowers fall and bloom, Lin Hao's figure has never appeared!

Lin Hao, the demon sword king who fought the leaders of the three major sects alone and split the Ten Thousand Demon City with one sword, disappeared like this.

People are forgetful creatures, and as time goes by, fewer and fewer people mention Lin Hao.

Only the Heavenly Scar Sword Sect, with the help of the Sword Scar for a long time, will remember that domineering figure.

............

I don't know how long it took.

In a small town in the south of the Tianyan Empire, there are a total of thirty households, and there is a blacksmith shop, a medicine shop, and a newly opened wood carving shop in the town.

This town, called Qingshan Town, is twenty miles away from the nearest Ziyang City, and people often take the town's specialties to Ziyang City in exchange for treasures.

Qingshan Town is a very humble place.

In the blacksmith shop in Qingshan Town, the old blacksmith held a hammer and kept beating it next to the boiler, sweat soaking through his clothes.

At this moment, he was forging a sword, and there was a demon core on the table, which was the old blacksmith's ancestral fire demon core, which was used to inlay the sword.

This sword was made for his son, because it was about to be the day when the Sword Sect selected disciples, and he wanted his son to be valued in the selection.

As long as you join the Heavenly Flame Empire's No. 1 Sect Asking Sword Sect, your future life will be worry-free!

"Bang!" "Bang!" "Bang!" ......

The sound of striking iron kept ringing in the town.

In the woodcarving shop opposite the blacksmith shop, a young man in white stood at the door, quietly looking at the old blacksmith, always with a flat expression.

The young man in white has no preferences on weekdays, except for carving wood carvings, just watching the old blacksmith forge swords.

At this time, a young man in cloth came back from outside and walked into the blacksmith shop.

The old blacksmith glanced back, stopped his movements, picked up a rag and wiped the sweat from his face, and smiled.

"Son, in a week's time, it will be the day when the Sword Sect recruits disciples, how sure are you?" the old blacksmith asked.

Wang Yang replied: "I'm not sure, the Sword Sect is the number one sect in the Tianyan Empire, and the recruitment conditions are too harsh, I'm a foundation building monk, where can he look down on me?"

"Son, don't be discouraged, I took out all the ancestral fire demon cores and forged a sword for you, I believe that your strength can be taken to the next level, and it may be favored by others. The old blacksmith laughed.

"Really!

As soon as Wang Yang's eyes lit up, he saw the fire demon core on the table, and jumped up excitedly.

The young man in white smiled slightly, took out a piece of wood and a knife, and began to carve it.

His craft of carving was very smooth, the knife was carved in wood, a boiler was carved, and an old blacksmith was carved.

His hands were white and very delicate, like a woman's hand, carved very slowly, but with great precision, and the wooden face was lifelike, like a living thing.

With the old blacksmith's sword, the wood carving in the hands of the young man in white gradually took shape.

After about two hours, when the old blacksmith embedded the fire demon core into the sword, the fire was overflowing, and the sword in his hand was finally completed.

"Haha, this sword is called the Burning Sun Sword, named after my son!" said the old blacksmith excitedly, his face full of relief.

At the same time, the wood carving in the hands of the young man in white was also formed.

It was a carving of a blacksmith casting a sword, depicting what it looked like when the sword was successfully forged, and the old blacksmith's joyful expression was depicted on the wood carving, which was frozen for a long time.

The young man in white smiled slightly, and put the wood carvings in the box on the side, and in that box, there were already dozens of wood carvings.

The old blacksmith wiped his sweat, it was already dark at this time, he glanced at the white-clothed young man in the woodcarving shop opposite, and shouted, "Lin Tian, come and eat!"

"Good!" the young man in white did not refuse, and walked to the blacksmith shop opposite.

Dinner, which had been cooked by the old blacksmith's son, was full of game, and it was game from the mountains.

On the table, there are also two jugs of wine, which are treasured in the blacksmith shop for hundreds of years, called monkey wine, which is said to be brewed by apes in the mountains, and it is sweet and delicious.

Almost every day, the young man in white will come to the blacksmith shop for dinner, the people of Qingshan Town are simple, and the old blacksmith's family will not feel taken advantage of, but more lively.

"Lin Tian, in a week, it will be the day when the Sword Sect recruits disciples, why don't you go with my son and try it?" the old blacksmith took a sip of monkey wine and said with a smile.

"Uncle Wang, there's no need, I'm a wasted person, I have no brute strength, what am I going to do in the assessment?"

"Haha! Young man, you should have some ambitions, maybe people will take a fancy to you, and you can soar to the sky!"
