Chapter 11: Ancient Scrolls Declassified

Time flies in a blink of an eye, and if the white horse passes by in January. 【】

At this time, the Tianlu Sword Academy, as usual, officially began the selection of students who took the first step towards his development path, whether it was all over Bazhou, or in the north, as well as covering the entire empire, they all focused here.

After Lu Zhaonan returned from the imperial capital, after the affairs of the Sword Academy were settled, the audition plan for the first batch of students from the Sword Academy was started, and it was in full swing.

There was a busy scene everywhere in the entire Sword Courtyard, but in some secluded places, no one disturbed it, which seemed very warm and quiet.

"Senior sister, this exercise is characterized by lightness and dexterity, his lightness is like a cloud, when you feel his agility and ethereal, but you also have to feel the subtle motive edge contained in this agility, just like the sword in your hand, between the curves and straights, it can be as soft as a ribbon, or as straight as steel, his meaning lies in the 'agility'"

At this time, in the pavilion behind the medicine garden, the surrounding grass was green, and the flowers were blooming, Nie Lin and Gu Menghan were sitting in the pavilion, their pens did not fall, and they were also talking eloquently when they were writing and drawing on the paper.

On the stone table, there was a scroll at this time, which was exactly what Nie Lin and Gu Menghan had obtained in the empty hall of the Hidden Sword Valley.

After Nie Lin's research for a period of time, after he had a preliminary grasp and understanding of the words of more than a thousand years ago, he also translated the contents of Gu Menghan's scroll in the month of recuperation after his phantom poison was eradicated.

Although there are some places where Gu Menghan still seems a little jerky to understand, Nie Lin has rich experience in cultivation in his previous life, and when he explains it to her, Gu Menghan can also understand it and quickly comprehend it.

At present, Gu Menghan has reached the peak of the ninth-level swordsman, and when he reaches the bottleneck stage, he has not broken through, and after Nie Lin translated the content of the exercises on the scroll for her, and simply explained it to Gu Menghan in his own way of understanding, Gu Menghan quickly found the direction of breakthrough.

In fact, after reaching the bottleneck of a swordsman, if you want to break through the barrier of the swordsman, and you can no longer break through the obstacle through diligent cultivation, you need to have an epiphany, and you need to reach another realm of your own kendo artistic conception and conquer that obstacle by your own will.

Therefore, after Nie Lin said the existence of a kind of consciousness above the scroll technique, Gu Menghan quickly grasped the key to it and entered a state of contemplation.

After seeing that Gu Menghan seemed to have comprehended, Nie Lin didn't bother her anymore, he quietly got up, walked outside the pavilion, greedily inhaled the fragrance of the flowers near the garden, and suddenly felt light.

After finding a stone platform in the garden and sitting down, Nie Lin took out another scroll from his arms and read it carefully.

The first half of the scroll is written during the Weiyang Empire 1,800 years ago, and now he has basically mastered it, and it is no longer so difficult to read, but the content of the first half of this scroll only tells a story.

This content is about the Hidden Sword Valley that Nie Lin once inadvertently broke into with Gu Menghan, that place, 1,800 years ago, was an ancient sword sacrifice holy place, with the existence of the legend of the shaman, but later after the shaman left, this place was revealed by a very powerful force at that time, and the two sides launched a shocking battle, and countless strong people fell there, which was extremely tragic, which is why Nie Lin saw so many broken swords and bones, as well as the immortal sword intent condensed and did not disperse, forming a sword spirit.

When that holy place was revealed, the secrets of its holy land were also exposed, and under the circumstances of the time, countless powerful people gathered there in a vain attempt to snatch the peerless treasure of the holy land, that is, the treasure of the holy land sword mansion.

For the swordsmen of Quanda 6 at that time, that holy place was originally a forbidden land, and only the sword realm was allowed to reach a certain stage, and after passing the test of the holy land, they were qualified to enter the sword mansion to seek a sword spirit that matched their own life, which was a ritual to be continued in the ancient inheritance at that time.

But the greed of those people at that time seriously broke the rules of that holy place, and in that terrible battle, although they killed a group of guardians of the holy land, they also paid the heaviest price.

At that time, the last pair of guardians of the Holy Land used the four sword beads of the Holy Land to arrange the sword array, and after sealing the Sword Mansion, they activated the talisman array arranged by the priest at that time, and as a result, all the swordsmen who broke into the valley were trapped inside.

At that time, the talisman array was extremely powerful, and after these people were trapped there, some immortal wills did not dissipate, and they formed corpse spirit puppets, devouring each other and growing, and whenever a sword broke into it, it would be destroyed by these puppets.

After Nie Lin read the contents of the scroll to this place, there was a small gap between the contents of the scroll, as if it had been deliberately erased, which made Nie Lin a little puzzled.

And then, after the content was erased, it was mentioned that one hundred and twenty years later, when this closed holy place was once again revealed, it had become a place of death full of dangers, and at that time, this holy place was dug up by several prospectors from the Weiyang Empire, and several people immediately reported to the imperial family at that time after appearing in that place.

It's just that no one expected that after the royal family learned of the existence of this holy land, they did not send people to explore the secrets of the holy land, but sent a master to kill all those who wanted to enter the holy land through the ore vein in the ore vein passage, and also sealed the ore vein passage, and even a few royal children who entered the holy land through the ore vein at that time, but did not have time to come out, were also trapped in it.

Seeing this, Nie Lin carefully observed the handwriting on the scroll, and now the words before and behind the blank space were not written by one person, but the content behind them was recorded by the people who entered the Holy Land one hundred and twenty years later, and they were the descendants of the original guardians of the Holy Land.

Later, after they entered the Holy Land, there were a large number of bones of their ancestors, but some of them had become puppets, and they wanted to bring those bones back, but because of the influx of a large number of swordsmen, someone opened the rune array, and the valley was sealed again.

After they were trapped in the valley, they killed those greedy people, a total of forty of them stayed in the valley for about ten years, and some of their companions died in succession, because the effectiveness of the talisman array was gradually weakening, they worked together to open up a passage, and also let them find the four sword yuan beads, and the existence of the sword mansion appeared.

In the Sword Mansion, each of them got a sword that matched their fate, but when they came out, they encountered a group of powerful sword beasts that suddenly appeared in the valley, and after bloody battles and battles, most of them died, and in the end there were only five people left, after they eliminated that batch of sword beasts, and through the power of a large number of sword fetuses left by those sword beasts, they gathered together, and through the diamond rune array, an exit channel was opened.

However, the exit passage was not stable, and the five brothers had no choice but to leave one of them in the valley, sacrificing themselves, and several of them worked together to let the four companions escape.

Unexpectedly, after the four companions went out, they still wanted to save him, and the four of them worked together to use the sword array to open the passage, but in the end they still failed.

After his companions went out, he returned to the valley, he knew that he would definitely die, so he tried to study and repair the rune array in the valley, but the rune array was damaged many times and could not be repaired, but it also allowed him to comprehend a set of sword formation methods when he studied the rune array.

After another ten years, he waited for death alone in the valley, and tried to make some efforts to improve the environment of the holy land, but unexpectedly once he heard a strange movement in the main hall, and saw four streamers flying back to the Sword Mansion, he went to the Sword Mansion to check, and now there are four swords that have lost their scabbards, but those four swords are the swords of his four brothers at that time, he doesn't know what happened, the four swords will fly back by themselves, and they have lost their hilts.

It's just that after the four swords returned to the Sword Mansion again, he also showed a sword lotus that grew on the top floor of the Sword Mansion, and the sword lotus actually gave birth to a sword mother, and after the four swords came back, they arched in front of the sword mother.

It's just that the four swords that came back were stained with blood, and after the sword mother absorbed the blood, it became violent, and he didn't know why this happened, in order to suppress the sword mother, he condensed most of the sword spirits in the sword mansion, and let the sword mother be pulled out, and divided into two, suppressed in two places, so that everything was safe.

It's just that a few years later, a young couple suddenly broke into the Holy Land, he was also old at that time, the couple strayed into the Holy Land because they were hunted down, and it also made him reveal another shocking secret of the Holy Land, that couple was not from this world, but from a world he had never imagined, and the couple told him that the existence of this so-called Holy Land was just a teleportation entrance to the Sword Spirit Realm, which was sealed by the shaman.

The arrival of this couple told him many novel stories, and made him realize how small the world he lived in was, when before the end of his life, the three of them found the place where the seal was located, which was suppressed by a dragon seal at the core of the rune array.

When he unlocked the dragon seal, the couple helped him open the entrance, and he decided to go to that world to see, but before leaving, he didn't want this secret to disappear, and he didn't want the sword formation he had studied all his life and created to lose its inheritance, so he recorded it on the scroll and entrusted it to the young couple, hoping that someone who was destined to pass it on later.

After Nie Lin finished reading the first half of the content on this scroll, he still couldn't help but gasp, this bizarre story has too many clues that he is currently very confused about but cannot know, the four thousand-year-old families, his four brothers, and the four swords, as well as the sword array he created, and the dragon seal at the core of the rune array.
