The sun is setting, and time can't catch up with the white horse.

When Shao Wei woke up, it was already late in the evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun hit his resolute face through the window.

"Is it because I haven't been back for too long? ”

Shao Wei raised his right hand to block the sunset, and muttered.

Sitting up from the bed, Shao Wei didn't think much about it, yesterday due to his sudden appearance, he was forced to reschedule the coming-of-age ceremony held a month later. He simply tidied up his clothes, rubbed his palm, which was a little drowsy from a long sleep, smiled bitterly, and then turned around and walked to the head of his bed.

It was a black long sword, which was laid flat on the bed, obviously, it was the black sword that Shao Wei had been carrying all along, and obviously, that black sword had been 'sleeping in the same bed' with Shao Wei all night.

The fading sunset hit the hilt of the sword that was exposed to the cloth, reflecting a thick ghostly light, although it had been ten years, but through the domineering hilt, it could be seen that the black long sword was still as new as ever, exquisite and abnormal, and the hurried years had not left any traces on it.

This sword was originally nameless, but following Shao Wei day and night, Shao Wei gave it a very domineering name based on its appearance: Black Dragon!

The palm of his hand held the hilt of the black dragon sword, and with a strong lift of his right hand, he threw the black dragon wrapped in strips of cloth in front of him, and Shao Wei's left hand immediately caught it.

After catching the black dragon, Shao Wei waved it lightly. Smiled slightly, after ten years of experience, now he has completely adapted to the weight of the black dragon, and will no longer be like when he first came into contact with it, lifting his shoulders and panting.

But despite this, Shao Wei had never used the black dragon until now, not because he didn't want to, but because he had never pulled out this sword since the day he got the black dragon, no matter how hard he tried, it was a general result in the end.

Later, he learned from his own godmother that the black dragon was sealed in some way, so he couldn't pull it out. However, Shao Xueqing took it to study for a long time, but she couldn't break the seal, and in the end, Shao Wei had no choice but to give up. So, Shao Wei carried this black dragon that couldn't be pulled out on his back for ten years.

Shao Wei looked at the delicate black dragon in his left hand, sighed lightly, and slowly sat on the edge of the bed, lowering his head, his eyes were a little dazed.

"It's been ten years...", a low murmur suddenly spit out from Shao Wei's mouth without boundaries.

In Shao Wei's heart, there is a secret that only he knows: when he was four years old, he was teleported to this flower sect, and he was accepted as a righteous son by the sect master Shao Xueqing to heal his injuries.

In the eyes of everyone, he was a waste who could no longer cultivate, and at first he himself thought so, but the turning point happened one night not long after he recovered from his trauma, and he was surprised to find that he could sense the energy fluctuations between heaven and earth, which was an ability that only cultivators have, so he sensed the meridians in his body, and was shocked to find that the meridians on his left hand had completely healed at some point, and were even a little tougher than before they were broken, glowing with a radiant jade color, and the meridians on his left arm were automatically healing at an extremely slow speed, This magical self-healing ability made Shao Wei suddenly ecstatic, although the healing speed was very slow, but after all, it gave him hope to start.

Sure enough, one night three years ago, Shao Wei's meridians in his body finally healed completely. In other words, Shao Wei at this moment is no different from a normal person.

Now that he has the hope of starting over, Shao Wei has gradually come into contact with the world he lives in, and over the years, Shao Wei has also had a general understanding of this continent.

The continent is called the Ten Thousand Swords Continent, there is no dazzling variety of magic on the continent, aura is the only energy on this continent, and there are no different forms of swords, guns and clubs on the continent, because the respect of people on the continent for the sword has already reached an unprecedented height, and the sword is the only king of this continent.

On this continent, the cultivation of aura has become a norm, from children who are only a few years old, to old people who are over seventy years old, all of them are aura cultivators, aura has become an indispensable part of people's lives after thousands or even tens of thousands of years of reproduction, if you really want to find anything that can be compared with it, then I am afraid that only the spirit sword, because it is also an indispensable thing for cultivators, one of the two is the foundation of cultivation, and the other is the sustenance of cultivation, and it is really impossible to distinguish which is more important for a while.

Since the status of the two on the continent was deeply rooted, over time, countless cultivation methods with their own characteristics and a clear hierarchy were created.

After several generations of induction and summarization on the continent, the Ten Thousand Swords Continent divides the spirit recipe into four levels from low to high: Fan, Spirit, Heaven, and Emperor, and each level is divided into three levels: inferior, medium, and superior, therefore, in general, the spirit recipe of the Ten Thousand Swords Continent is divided into four orders and twelve levels.

Spiritual recipe is an indispensable thing in the process of people's cultivation, to be precise, the spiritual recipe is the method of using spiritual energy, and the spiritual energy of cultivation is used in various forms to achieve the effect of killing and resisting the enemy, so a high-level spiritual recipe can bring great help to cultivators.

For example, a person who uses a low-level spirit technique is naturally a few points stronger than a powerhouse of the same level who uses a medium-level spirit trick of the mortal level, this is because, compared to the spirit recipe of the mortal level, the spirit level spirit recipe can mobilize more spiritual energy in the cultivator's body to form moves, so the power of the spirit level spirit recipe is naturally much stronger than that of the mortal level.

The power of high-level spirit tricks is unfathomable, but the rarity of high-level spirit tricks is also difficult to repeat, most of the spirit tricks that are generally circulated in the public are only in the mortal level, and there will be some spirit level spirit tricks in small sects and small families, and heaven level spirit tricks, which are the top spirit tricks that only some big forces have, as for the emperor level, it has always only existed in legends.

The level of the cultivator's own strength determines how much spiritual energy his body can hold, and the amount of spiritual energy that can be accommodated by his body does not vary from person to person, that is to say, two strong people with the same level of strength, the amount of spiritual energy that the two of them can adjust the amount of spiritual energy is the same.

Therefore, it is difficult for those who are not too strong in their own strength to use high-level spiritual formulas, because the amount of spiritual energy consumed by using high-level spiritual formulas is not what ordinary people can consume, of course, the same spiritual formula is used by people of different levels, and the power is also different, that is to say, as the cultivator's own strength increases, the power that bursts out from using the same spiritual formula will also increase.

There are countless spiritual techniques on the Ten Thousand Swords Continent, each with its own merits, but in general, the spiritual recipes are mainly divided into two categories: sword techniques and martial arts.

As the name suggests, the sword trick is the spirit trick that bursts out with the sword as the medium, and the indispensable thing to use the sword trick is the spirit sword, of course, for some extremely powerful people, the sword trick can be used without the spirit sword, of course, this is all a later story.

Martial arts are different from sword techniques, and the cultivation of martial arts does not require any external objects, because martial arts practice is the body of the cultivator itself, and the flesh of people is the root of yin and yang.

Perhaps it is because people's respect for swords has reached an unprecedented height, and now people on the mainland have a little disdain for martial arts, and no longer regard martial arts and swords as equal things as before.

Generally speaking, the Ten Thousand Swords Continent depends on the level of a person's ability, mainly based on three aspects.

The first is the level of the cultivator's own strength, which is understandable, because the level determines how much aura can be accommodated, therefore, in a conventional sense, it is difficult for a swordsman to defeat a great swordsman head-on, if he encounters a person who can fight beyond the ranks, it can only show one point, this person must have the skill of reaching the sky.

After that, there is the spirit trick, two strong people with little difference in strength, if anyone has a powerful spirit trick, then the key to winning this duel is to know, you know, in this world of the jungle, if you lose, then there is nothing.

Therefore, it is enough to see the importance of the spirit recipe in the Ten Thousand Swords Continent, if you want to obtain a high-level spirit recipe, the best way is to join the sect or enter the academy, where there are better opportunities for the outstanding young generation, take the flower sect where Shao Wei is at the moment, although it is only a women's sword sect, but there are also several spirit level lower grade spirit recipes as rewards for outstanding disciples in the sect to learn, so it has also created a good place when the sect recruits outer disciples every year.

Of course, there will also be some powerful but withdrawn cultivators, who are equipped with various high-level spiritual tricks and high-level spiritual swords, because they are unwilling to give away at will, they will choose to set up all kinds of tests in the place where they sit, waiting for the destined people to pass the test to obtain the treasure, so it has also created many people who go to the mountains and forests to explore treasures, of course, most of them return empty-handed.

Finally, it is the spirit sword, the level division of the spirit sword between heaven and earth is relatively simple, the spirit sword is divided into nine lines, three lines are first-class, divided into upper, middle and lower three-class.

The subtlety of the spirit sword lies in the fact that it can increase the power of the sword technique condensed by the cultivator, of course, the size of the sword that the spirit sword can add to the power of the sword technique is still linked to the strength of the cultivator himself, for example, a swordsman can increase the power of the sword technique by one percent by using a one-pattern spirit sword, and the use of a two-pattern spirit sword can increase the power of the sword by two percent, and a great swordsman can use this one-pattern spirit sword, but it can increase by two percent, which means that the higher the level of the spirit sword, the more bonuses it provides to the cultivator, and with the increase of the cultivator's rank, the more bonuses can be obtained by using the same spirit swordTherefore, with the continuous improvement of the cultivator's rank, one one-pattern spirit sword can increase the power of the sword technique by up to two times, and the second pattern can increase by up to two times, and so on.

Therefore, it is enough to see the importance of the spirit sword for cultivators, so once a high-level spirit sword is born, it will cause an uproar on the mainland.

The above three are the basis for judging a person's strength, and in general, having a good spirit sword and a high-level spirit recipe is self-evident for the benefits in the future.

Shao Wei naturally has, although there are no grade lines on his black dragon, but his perception tells Shao Wei that this black dragon must not be an ordinary thing, not because of the domineering shape of the black dragon and its incredible weight, but because in the scattered memories he recalls, this sword has been used by a mysterious peerless powerhouse, how can such a peerless powerhouse be an ordinary thing, besides, this kind of sword has always given Shao Wei a very familiar feeling.

But what's the use of a good sword, his current strength is too low, only five patterns of green aura, there is still a long distance from the swordsman, it is impossible to break the black dragon seal, but a good sword can't be used, it's really annoying.

"Grass, I knew that I would cultivate well, and I wouldn't have practiced any muscles with those two bastards there, and I had been working as a coolie for three years in vain" Shao Wei suddenly got up and said angrily.

......

After a few complaints, Shao Wei let go of the anger in his heart, and then gradually regained his composure, and soon after, there was even a hint of a smile on his face.

"Those two bastards are already far away..."

Shao Wei murmured nonsensically, and with his intriguing smile, he seemed to be in some kind of contemplation.

However, the silence did not last long before it was interrupted.

With a loud bang, the door of Shao Wei's room was kicked open by someone else, and then, a crisp female voice came in.

"Young Master Shao Wei, you still need someone to invite you to dinner, right! You think this is your home!"
