"Bastard! You wait for me! Looking at Xiao Ye's back, Gu Yang gritted his teeth and looked hideous.

Walking out of the Ten Thousand Instruments Pavilion, Xiao Ye's eyes swept and he found a 'Infernal Inn' and walked in. He didn't dare to carry the Yan knife on his back like this and walk around the street.

After spending ten taels of silver, Xiao Ye lived in a room in the inn.

"Utan City is really a place to burn silver." Xiao Ye said with emotion, now he only has more than a hundred taels of silver left on him, and it is estimated that he can only last a few days.

"No matter, take a step at a time, and after getting the scabbard, I'll inquire about the information of the pulse washing pool." Xiao Ye took off the Yan Knife and rubbed it with his palm.

The flame knife contains the true meaning of the martial arts of a Xuanwu realm martial artist, how to comprehend it? Xiao Ye pondered.

Soon, he remembered the scene in the cave that day, using his true qi to pull out the flame knife from the magma.

"Could it be...... You have to use true qi in order to stimulate the true intent of the martial arts in the sword? Xiao Ye's eyes flickered, and then he tried to use the true qi in his body and instilled it towards the Yan Knife.

Rumble!

Xiao Ye's head roared, and when he reacted, he was already in the vast shadow of the sword.

Shout! Shout!

The void was flooded with flames and sword light, like a waterfall rushing down, roaring, making him feel suffocated.

Xiao Ye was in a cold sweat, and the flame sword light was like a waterfall and a sea of fire, submerging his figure.

He had already experienced it once, so Xiao Ye understood that these were illusory things, not real objects.

He was in the vast sword light, and he felt it carefully.

"Coercion ......" Soon, Xiao Ye's heart moved, and from the vast sword light, he felt a strong sense of coercion.

It was this kind of coercion that brought him a strong sense of suffocation.

"Could this be the true meaning of martial arts?" Xiao Ye seemed to have grasped a glimmer of aura, but it quickly disappeared.

At this moment, the heavy flame sword light in front of him was disillusioned and withdrew from the state of comprehension.

"Huh? How did it disappear? Xiao Ye was puzzled, and soon his complexion changed slightly, because the true qi in his twelve meridians was actually exhausted, and the feeling of extreme weakness spread throughout his body.

"Just like this, it actually consumed all my true qi?" Xiao Ye was shocked.

Although he is only a fifth-fold cultivator in the Acquired Realm, because of the Twelve Veins of the Acquired Martial Arts, the Heavenly Luo Gong, he is much stronger than the true qi of the sixfold martial artists of the Acquired Realm.

Even he could only support such a short period of time, and an ordinary martial artist of the fifth level of the Heavenly Realm might not even be able to stimulate the true intent of the martial arts in the sword.

"It seems that you still have to improve your cultivation, otherwise you won't be able to comprehend the true meaning of the martial arts in the sword." Xiao Ye smiled bitterly, according to his speculation, I am afraid that only by reaching the Eight Heavens of the Acquired Realm can he stimulate the true intent of martial arts for a long time.

"Pulse Washing Pool!" Xiao Ye's eyes shot two rays of essence, if he wanted to improve his cultivation in a short period of time, he could only pin his hopes on the Pulse Washing Pool.

Then, Xiao Ye didn't think much about it, he put away the Yan Knife, his consciousness sank into the Tower of Time, and began to cultivate.

As he ran the Tianluo Gong, a wisp of true qi began to be generated in the meridians, and then circulated in the twelve meridians, and with each cycle, the true qi grew by one point.

One night, Xiao Ye spent the night in penance.

When the morning sun shone on Xiao Ye from the window, his eyes suddenly opened, and two sharp rays of light flashed.

Xiao Ye jumped out of bed and burst out with a powerful aura all over his body, lifting the dust on the ground.

"Cultivation has broken through to the middle of the fifth level of the Acquired Realm." Feeling a lot of true qi in his body, Xiao Ye's face was full of joy.

Stimulating the martial arts true intent of the Yan Dao and squandering his true qi, the effect of this extreme squeezing and then cultivating after the penance was unexpectedly good.

coincided with the breakthrough, Xiao Ye was in a much better mood, he wrapped the blade of the Yan Knife with a strip of cloth, and then pushed the door and walked out.

The Inn is divided into three floors, the first floor is the dining room, and there are many warriors dining at this time, and the sound is noisy.

Xiao Ye ordered some food and sat down in his seat to eat.

"Have you heard? The city's vein-washing pool is about to open. Tsk, the Pulse Washing Pool is a treasure for the acquired martial artist. Suddenly, a voice caught Xiao Ye's attention.

He was about to inquire about the Pulse Washing Pool, so he pricked up his ears and listened.

"Yes, I heard that there was once an acquired martial artist, after the baptism of the Pulse Washing Pool, his cultivation directly increased by two great realms, which is really terrifying."

"It's a pity, the quota for entering the Pulse Washing Pool has always been controlled by the three major families of Gu, Zhang, and Su, and it is difficult for ordinary people to even get close." Someone sighed with emotion and talked about the affairs of the three major families.

Xiao Ye's heart moved, he didn't expect that the evil young man he taught yesterday was really the second young master of the Gu family.

"Now among the three major families, the Gu family is the most powerful, and the Gu family has an amazing talent Gu Chen, who can be called the first day of Utan City, and at the age of sixteen, he broke through to the sixth level of the acquired realm, causing a great sensation. Many people speculate that he can get a high ranking in this Chongyangmen assessment. ”

"Yes, I've heard that, too. Moreover, the entrance assessment of Chongyangmen is imminent, and the Gu family plans to occupy the quota of the Su family in order to allow more juniors to enter, I don't know if it is true or not. ”

"How can we know about these big family things?" Someone shook their heads, quickly changing the subject.

Xiao Ye's eyes flickered.

At the age of sixteen, he broke through to the sixth level of the acquired realm, and the first day of Utan City was Gu Chen?

"I don't know who is more powerful than me?" A sense of war surged on Xiao Ye's body.

Chongyangmen entry assessment, he has to compete with geniuses from major cities, if he can see the strength of the first day of Wutan City now, he will have more confidence in his heart.

Although his current strength can fight beyond the ranks, he does not dare to be careless. After all, the geniuses of these big families are much higher than him, and who knows what hole cards they will have.

Xiao Ye hurriedly finished eating, then left the inn, wandered around the city, and when the time came, he went to Wanbao Pavilion to get the scabbard.

At the same time, in a magnificent mansion in Utan City.

"Daddy." The girl who appeared in the Ten Thousand Instruments Pavilion yesterday stepped lightly and walked into a study.

In the study, there was a middle-aged man in a brocade robe, whose standard Chinese face looked quite majestic, but at this moment he frowned, and there was deep worry on his face.

When he saw the girl, a smile appeared on his face.

"Ying'er, you're here."

The girl nodded slightly, walked behind the middle-aged man with lotus steps, and stretched out her little white hand to pinch the middle-aged man's shoulder.

"Dad, are you still worried about the quota for entering the Pulse Washing Pool in three days?" The girl hesitated for a moment and asked softly, her voice as pleasant as a wind chime.

"Yes, the Gu family is getting stronger and stronger, and he actually wants to blackmail you and let you marry the Gu Yang who only knows the loser, otherwise you will occupy the quota of our Gu family's pulse washing pool."

"Ying'er, it's my father who is sorry for you!" Tears flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, and his face was full of guilt.

"Dad, needless to say I'm sorry, Ying'er is very happy to be able to do something for the family." The girl forced a smile, and in her clear spring-like eyes, the gloomy color flashed.

Speaking of this, the girl was silent for a moment, then lightly opened her lips and said, "Dad, isn't there another way?" ”

"Yes, there's a way. The Gu family said that if we can find a junior and survive three moves under Gu Chen, we will not mention this matter again. ”

"But it's just a casual way for them to deal with us. Gu Chen was a genius on the first day of Utan City, and he was invincible, and there was no junior who could survive three moves under Gu Chen. The middle-aged man sighed.

"What if there is?" The girl suddenly laughed, like a blooming flower, swaying in the wind.

"What!" The middle-aged man's eyes widened, and he suddenly stood up from his seat, "Ying'er, tell your father about it." ”

The girl smiled and nodded, and trayed out what happened yesterday in the Ten Thousand Instruments Pavilion.

"Around fifteen years old, the acquired realm is fivefold!" The middle-aged man's eyes were full of essence, and his body trembled with excitement, "This young man will definitely be able to survive three moves in Gu Chen's hands, we must find him!" ”

"Dad, I've already inquired, at this time today, he will go to Wanqi Pavilion, but how can we let him help us?" The girl asked softly.

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment when he heard this, and finally slapped the table fiercely and said, "It's a big deal to give him a place in the pulse washing pool, I don't believe he is not moved!" ”

……

After wandering around the city for an hour or so, Xiao Ye opened his eyes, and when the time came, he went straight to the Ten Thousand Instruments Pavilion.

"Shaoxia, you're here, the scabbard is ready for you." When the shopkeeper saw Xiao Ye, he sent someone to get the scabbard from behind.

"Thank you, shopkeeper." The scabbard was black all over, weighing at least a hundred pounds, Xiao Ye took off the Yan knife, tore off the wrapped strip of cloth, and inserted it into the scabbard.

Boom!

The scabbard and the blade of the knife were tightly sealed, covering the edge of the Yan Knife, Xiao Ye was excited in his heart, from the surface, outsiders would never see the special nature of the Yan Knife.

"Shaoxia, I advise you to leave Utan City quickly, you fought Gu Yang yesterday, but Gu Chen's younger brother on the first day in the city." The shopkeeper kindly reminded.

Xiao Ye smiled when he heard this, since he provoked the other party, he was not afraid of trouble to come to the door. Besides, he didn't believe that the Gu family could cover the sky in Utan City with one hand.

"Hehe, do I want to leave after beating me?" At this moment, a sneer came from outside the door.

Xiao Ye turned around and looked, only to see Gu Yang and another young man walking in one after the other.

The young man standing in front of Gu Yang was wearing a black robe, carrying his hands behind his back, and his attitude was cold and arrogant, as if he didn't care about everything in the world.

"Brother, it's him!" Gu Yang pointed at Xiao Ye with his finger and said hatefully.

Swish!

The black-robed young man's eyes swelled, and his gaze fell on Xiao Ye.

"Boy, you are arrogant enough, even my brother of Gu Chen dares to fight. If you don't give an explanation today, just lie down and go out. The black-robed young man said coldly.

Ancient dust?

Xiao Ye's eyes froze, is this the first day of Utan City? But this tone is too self-righteous.

"What if I refuse?" Xiao Ye said coldly, with a battle intent on his body, he was just trying to compete with this first day.

"Hmph, don't blame me for being ruthless." The black-robed young man Gu Chen stepped out in one step, and a powerful aura rose to the sky.

"Stop!"

Just as Xiao Ye was about to make a move, a loud shout came from outside the door.
