Chapter 14: Disappearance

No one can cultivate?" Shi Xuanyu was stunned. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Yes. Great Elder Xi Jingshan sighed. "This matter is related to a recent secret of our Sword Sect. Now that you have become a core disciple, you should know this secret. ”

"In fact, according to the previous rules of our Sword Sect, if a disciple of the Sword Sect successfully cultivates the Phantom Mountain Sword Technique, he will be directly accepted by the head of the sect as a core disciple. Because of our Sword Sect, only the head of the sect has cultivated the "Phantom Mountain Sword Technique" to the third layer, and only the head of the sect has the ability to guide you in the cultivation of the "Phantom Mountain Sword Technique". ”

Shi Xuanyu nodded.

Although the Sword Sect counted itself as having four people who had cultivated the "Phantom Mountain Sword Technique", except for the master, the remaining three of them had only cultivated the "Phantom Mountain Sword Technique" to the first layer.

"Now that you have successfully cultivated the Illusory Mountain Sword Technique, the head has not appeared. Great Elder Xi Jingshan sighed. "That's because he's ...... Disappeared five days ago!"

"Missing!" Shi Xuanyu was taken aback.

The head of the Sword Sect has disappeared!

"Not bad. Great Elder Xi Jingshan said with a heavy face. "The place where the Master disappeared is in the Forest of Trials. I doubt it...... It's possible that the master has entered the forbidden land of the Forest of Trials!"

"Forbidden land?" Shi Xuanyu was stunned.

He had entered the Forest of Trials, so he knew that the entire Forest of Trials was divided into four areas. The first area haunts fierce beasts whose strength is comparable to that of intermediate martial artists, the second area haunts fierce beasts whose strength is comparable to that of high-level martial artists, the strength of the fierce beasts infested in the third area has reached the realm of human martial artists, and the fourth area ...... It is the forbidden land of the Sword Sect, and those who step into it will definitely die.

"Why did the head of the sect go to the forbidden land? Isn't the forbidden land the one who steps into it dead?, what is in the forbidden land?" Shi Xuanyu asked again and again.

"That's just my guess. The Great Elder shook his head and said. "As for what's in the forbidden land, no one knows. This forbidden place is said to have existed as early as when the first head of our Sword Sect was founded by the ancestor of the sect, and since the establishment of our Sword Sect, no one who has stepped into this forbidden place, no matter what strength they have, has not been able to come back alive. This has led to the mystery of the entire forbidden land, which has aroused the conjecture of many people. Some people say that there are unimaginable treasures in the forbidden land, others say that there are invincible secrets in the world, and some people say that there are extremely terrifying beasts in the forbidden land...... In short, there are all kinds of conjectures. And every once in a while, there will always be some people who try to enter the forbidden land to explore, but none of these people who enter the forbidden land will come out alive. ”

Shi Xuanyu couldn't help but nodded. "So Great Elder, do you suspect that the head of the sect has entered the forbidden land?"

"Yes. Great Elder Xi Jingshan nodded. "In the entire Forest of Trials, only the forbidden land is dangerous to the master. Other areas can be easily dealt with the strength of the leader. The head has been missing for so many days and there is no news, and I think there is a good chance that he has entered the forbidden land. ”

"Actually, the most important reason why I asked the entire Sword Sect disciples to go to the Forest of Trials for a collective trial this time is that I want you to go to the Forest of Trials to find the traces of the master. If you can't find the Master in the entire Forest of Trials, then you can be sure that the Master has indeed entered the Forbidden Land. Great Elder Xi Jingshan sighed. "If the head of the sect really enters the forbidden land, then we ...... The election of the new head can only begin. ”

"The new head is elected?" Shi Xuanyu was stunned.

"Yes. If you enter the forbidden land, you will die, even if the head of the sect enters, you will die. And in order to maintain the operation of the sect, it is necessary to have a master. The reason why no one can practice the second layer of the Sword Technique of the Phantom Mountain Sword Technique now is because we don't have a master. Without the master, our Sword Sect's 'Inheritance Sword Room' cannot be opened. The second and third layers of the Sword Technique of the Phantom Mountain Sword Technique can only be cultivated in the 'Inheritance Knife Room'. And now that the 'Inheritance Sword Room' can't be opened, no one can cultivate the second and third layers of the Illusory Mountain Sword Technique. The Great Elder said.

"I see. Shi Xuanyu's heart was suddenly shocked.

"You have to keep the disappearance of the head of the house a secret. At present, not many people know about this matter, and it is not appropriate for too many sect disciples to know. The Great Elder admonished.

"Understood. Shi Xuanyu nodded.

......

After leaving the main hall, Shi Xuanyu walked all the way to his new residence.

"The disappearance of the head of this Sword Sect, I always feel a little strange, but what the problem is, I can't figure it out for a while. Shi Xuanyu's brows furrowed.

Just thinking about it, two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, came in front of him.

Shi Xuanyu looked up and was stunned. From the robes of these two people, Shi Xuanyu could see their identities.

"Second Elder, Third Elder. Shi Xuanyu nodded at the two of them.

Now that he is already the fourth core disciple of the Sword Sect, his status is equivalent to these two elders, so naturally he does not need to salute.

And these two elders also looked at Shi Xuanyu with a smile, their faces full of kindness.

"Xuan Yu, congratulations on becoming a core disciple. ”

"Xuan Yu, this is a little gift from us, take it. ”

The two elders seemed very warm and friendly, and even took out the heavenly treasures as a meeting gift. This couldn't help but make Shi Xuanyu feel stunned, but after thinking about it carefully, he understood.

These two elders now have their own factions with Mo Shufan in the Sword Sect, and these three major factions have always been not harmonious, and they are fighting openly and secretly with each other. Of these three major factions, Mo Shufan's faction is currently the most powerful, and these two elders have always been very jealous and dissatisfied with Mo Shufan.

Now that they knew that Shi Xuanyu and Mo Shufan had a grudge, they naturally expressed friendship with Shi Xuanyu and tried to win over Shi Xuanyu to side with them to deal with Mo Shufan.

Shi Xuanyu was not interested in the struggle for power factions within this Sword Sect. After casually talking to these two elders, Shi Xuanyu left.

"This kid doesn't seem to have much ambition. The second elder looked at Shi Xuanyu's departing figure.

On the surface, this is the case, but only he knows what he thinks in his heart. The Third Elder said. "Fortunately, this kid has a grudge against Mo Shufan, as long as he and Mo Shufan are enemies, he will naturally deal with Mo Shufan. As long as he doesn't establish a faction within the sect, he poses no threat to us. ”

"But he really won't establish a faction within the sect, and his prestige within the sect is very high at the moment. The second elder was faintly worried.

"Rest assured. Look at those who cultivated the "Phantom Mountain Sword Technique", which one would establish a faction? Whether it was that Martial Xuan Gu or this Shi Xuanyu, they were all martial madmen. Their energy is all on knife skills, and they all look at the power struggle very lightly. Even if they have high prestige within the sect, they will not establish a faction. ”

......

White as cotton under thick clouds.

Shi Xuanyu came to a luxurious courtyard. This is his new residence after becoming a core disciple. Compared to the house he lived in before, the environment here was much better than the previous house.

However, Shi Xuanyu didn't have the joy of moving into a new home at the moment, he was thinking about how he could improve his strength if he couldn't cultivate the second layer of the Sword Technique of the Phantom Mountain Sword Technique.

"At present, I can only integrate the "Quick Knife" knife technique into the "Phantom Mountain Knife Technique" at most, and I can only integrate it into the first layer of the "Quick Knife" knife technique, and the "Heavy Knife" knife technique is completely unable to integrate. That is to say, before cultivating the second layer of the Sword Technique of the Phantom Mountain. In terms of knife skills, I won't have any room for improvement for the time being. ”

Shi Xuanyu knew that although his talent had reached a rather perverted level in the growth of that evil seed, it was not just a talent to integrate into the sword technique. If you can't fit in, you can't fit in, and no matter how good your talent is, it's useless. Unless Shi Xuanyu can cultivate the Illusory Mountain Sword Technique to the second layer.

"In terms of knife skills, I don't have any room for improvement for the time being. I don't know if I can improve in terms of physical fitness. ”

Shi Xuanyu took out a Dream Leaf Grass, cut the rhizome of the Dream Leaf Grass with a knife, and raised his head to drink the juice flowing from it.

Wow!

As the juice of the Dream Leaf Grass entered his stomach, a hot current suddenly appeared in Shi Xuanyu's body, and this hot current quickly flowed all over Shi Xuanyu's limbs, making Shi Xuanyu's body begin to improve.

"It worked!"

Shi Xuanyu's eyes lit up.

He knew that the improvement of the body of these heavenly treasures was usually limited, and after the improvement reached a certain level, he could not continue to improve. The upper limit of the average person's consumption of these heavenly materials and earth treasures is five parts, as long as five parts of the heavenly materials and earth treasures are taken in a row, the body will be saturated, and then even if you take more heavenly materials and earth treasures, the body will not have any improvement.

Shi Xuanyu now drank the juice of this dream leaf grass, and obviously felt that his body had improved to a great extent.

This made Shi Xuanyu immediately take out another Dream Leaf Grass.

......

When Shi Xuanyu took all the heavenly and earthly treasures on his body to improve his physical fitness, his physical fitness was greatly improved, and at the same time, Shi Xuanyu also felt that if he still had heavenly and earthly treasures here, he could continue to improve, and this kind of improvement was ...... It seems that there is no upper limit at all!

"Could it be that the evil seed has changed not only my physical fitness, but also my body that can be improved without limit. That is to say, no matter how much I take the Heavenly Material and Earth Treasure, my body will not be saturated, and I can continue to improve forever! As long as I have the Heavenly Material and Earth Treasure, I can always improve my body!
