To the west of the forest.

Grandpa was buried together by Hu'er and Linzi when they fled, and Hu'er still remembers that place to this day, so he took Liu Chengfeng and Liu Chengang and others to quickly find Grandpa's grave.

When Hu'er came to his grandfather's grave, he saw that there were some scattered offerings in front of the grave, and there was a newly erected tombstone, and he didn't show a happy look on his face, but said softly: "Brother really came!"

Because it was a grandfather's sacrifice, Hu'er also prepared sacrifices and other things for this trip, so after placing them, he knelt in front of the tomb, put on good incense, and bowed a few times.

Liu Chengfeng was instructed by Liu Jingtao, so after the tiger worshipped, he also came forward to offer incense, bowed a few times, and then asked Liu Yichen and Liu Yiyun to also come to worship.

After a few people worshipped, Liu Chengang said: "This place is located at the foot of the mountain, but there is an extremely deep gap in the remote and hidden place nearby, which is bottomless, and there are some traces next to it, it seems that someone has fallen down!"

Liu Chengfeng was startled, so he walked over and looked, and sure enough, he saw that there were many dead branches and leaves scattered around, and between the two rows of trees, there was a deep hole.

The other people also walked up curiously to take a look, and Liu Yichen said: "Uncle Chengfeng, this gap should extend all the way to the belly of the mountain, and there are trees and dead branches and leaves around it, if ordinary people don't pay attention, it is very likely to fall!"

Liu Yiyun said suddenly: "Nie Lin has come to see his grandfather, will he fall down, second uncle, let's go down and have a look?"

When Hu'er next to him heard this, he was anxious and shouted: "If my brother falls, what should I do, I have to find a way to save him!"

As he spoke, the tiger crawled to the abyss and kept roaring: "Brother... Are you in there... Brother ......"

Liu Chengang said: "This gap is very deep, it can't be visually detected, if you want to go down, you must have a long enough rope, let's put someone down to investigate, and then make plans!"

"But, how can I go down so deeply?" Liu Yichen said.

Liu Yiyun rolled her eyes, glanced at the nearby rattans, and said, "There are a lot of us, why don't we collect some rattans and weave a thick and long rope, my body is light, you let me go down to check it, and then pull me up!"

Liu Yichen nodded and said, "This is feasible!"

Liu Chengang shook his head and said: "This rattan may not be strong, let's go back and report, they came this time because they have plans to climb the snow mountain, so they are all preparing a very long rope, and now they are preempted by the royal shadow guard, and we don't plan to participate in the treasure hunting on the mountain, it is better to go back and prepare first, and come over tomorrow morning to explore this mountain crevice!"

"That's fine!" Liu Chengfeng nodded and said: "Be prepared, this neighborhood is remote, and the sword beasts that infest are not strong, you can accompany the tiger around here to experience it, go back in the afternoon and prepare for it, and come back tomorrow!"

When everyone heard Liu Chengfeng's arrangement, they had no choice but to obey the arrangement.

Hu'er said: "I know a place, I have been there with Big Bear and my brother before, the sword beasts there are not powerful, but there are things I need for this eighth-level swordsman trial mission, why don't we go there!"

Liu Chengfeng thought for a while and said, "Yun'er also received the trial task of a seventh-level swordsman this time, Yichen, did you break through the seventh-level swordsman when you went to the Sword Pavilion to test the sword last time?"

Liu Yichen said: "I have already broken through the peak of the seventh-level swordsman last month, and after going to the Sword Pavilion to test the sword, I also took the trial task of the eighth-level swordsman, and like Hu'er, Yixing also broke through the seventh-level swordsman this time!"

When Liu Chengang heard this, he was a little surprised, and said: "Chengfeng, how can these children have made such rapid progress recently, and my family can only break through the first level in the past few months!"

When Liu Chengfeng heard this, he smiled bitterly: " Big cousin, you don't know, in fact, it all has to be attributed to the credit of the little prince of Wuying, since the king of Wuying lost to Nie Lin in the academy, he has gone crazy to cultivate, and he really deserves the name of genius, in just over three months, he has been a ninth-level swordsman, and he is even more arrogant in Bazhou, these children have been stimulated, and they are all practicing hard, plus my father spent a lot of money to buy a large number of sword pills to assist, so the children in the family have improved significantly in the past three months, that is, the laziest Yisong, and the fourth-level swordsman, they have an average of second-level improvement, which is really surprising！”

"In this way, the qualifications of the children of my Liu family are actually not bad, they just lack some motivation!" Liu Chengang showed a gratifying smile on his face: "It seems that this arrogant little prince of Wuying came to Bazhou, which is a good thing!"

"The barrier of the ninth-level swordsman is a hurdle, it is difficult to cross, and it is not necessarily a good thing to improve too quickly, the purpose of my father to bring them here to experience this time is also to let them lay a solid foundation!"

"Okay, in that case, then Hu'er is familiar with the place, you can lead the way!"

After Hu'er kowtowed a few more times in front of his grandfather's grave in the past, he took a group of people to the trial first.

......

After a few days.

The mysterious valley is still so blue that the sky is not visible, and it is still a little dim and shrouded in fog all year round.

Nie Lin had been sitting in the cave in that mysterious valley for a few days, and he had never stopped except for Gu Menghan taking care of him when he ate and drank.

Gu Menghan has never dared to leave Nie Lin's side, and in the past few days, she has concocted a large number of calming and recuperating medicines to assist Nie Lin in overcoming this difficulty.

And in her spare time, while contemplating the second-order "Exquisite Miao", she started from the basics and practiced the set of methods of contemplating qi and gathering qi in "The True Essence of Qi" taught by Nie Lin.

The aura in this valley is very weird, when Nie Lin gathers his senses and perceives the beginning of the change, every time he gathers the qi, it is no longer the transition from the previous true qi to the essence qi, after those strange breaths are incorporated into his body, they will be directly combined with the essence qi and transformed into a fierce sword qi.

Therefore, in the past few days of cultivation, the sword qi in Nie Lin's body has reached a saturated state, which is more refined, and the extended surname and extended surname have also been strengthened, so that the scattered sword qi has also been calmed and refined by him, and in this way, his cultivation of the Imperial True Determination has also reached the third realm.

It is precisely the third level of this Imperial True Decision for the expansion and extension of the essence qi in the transformation of the sword qi, if Nie Lin condenses the sword gang through the sword qi externally, or directly expands the attack through the sword qi, it will obviously be raised to a new height.

This also means that Nie Lin's kendo strength has successfully completed the transition from a fourth-level swordsman to a fifth-level swordsman.

He was laying this solid foundation in order to separate the violent sword intent that had always been entangled with the killing sword spirit in his body, and the process was still very complicated and arduous.

And first break through the level of kendo strength, and then deal with this problem, Nie Lin's approach is still very wise.

Because of the third expansion and extension assistance of the Royal True Decision, concentrating on the violent sword intent, the effect of refining the sword intent is still relatively obvious, the sword spirit condensed by the killing sword intent in his body, due to the strength of Nie Lin's sword heart, and it was formed naturally by Nie Lin, so Nie Lin was able to skillfully control the killing sword intent in this sword spirit through the sword dao perception in the past few days.

It was a lot of work done in the early stage, Nie Lin had been forcibly suppressing that violent sword intent with his sword intent, staring at and controlling this killing sword intent and gradually getting rid of the entanglement from that violent sword intent, and the long-term preparation had already achieved initial results.

CHAPTER XXIII

This process is equivalent to the use of single-mindedness, two different artistic conceptions, so that when Nie Lin experienced and comprehended the two different sword intents, he continued to consolidate this killing sword spirit, and the essence sword qi condensed around him made him even more solidified.

On the other hand, Nie Lin's sword qi that was incorporated into his body and transformed was to let that violent sword intent dominate, every time that sword qi was affected by the violent sword intent and scattered, when Nie Lin was a little uncontrollable, he would immediately take a high-grade sword spirit pill, and through the medicinal power of the sword spirit pill, he continued to control this sword qi with violent sword intent to swim in his body, allowing him to complete the Zhou Tian cycle and form a habitual surname.

When this sword qi condensed with violent sword intent formed a law, Nie Lin would continue to use a large amount of sword qi to guide, gradually peel off the cocoon, take its essence, let them recondense, and compress it, and finally condense it in the Qi Sea Dantian, and then a pure sword qi will place it in the acupoint of a meridian, forming a weak sword spirit, and standing side by side with the killing sword spirit in the Qi Sea Dantian.

Condensing another sword spirit and letting the two sword spirits coexist in one place, this method is actually very dangerous, and if you don't get it right, you will be repulsed.

Nie Lin used a very bold attempt, and the reason why he was able to succeed was that he had the unparalleled cultivation experience in his previous life, and he also had a resolute and powerful sword heart.

However, after successfully condensing a relatively weak sword spirit with pure violent sword intent, the sword qi in Nie Lin's body was once again drained.

All the sword qi is condensed in the sea of qi, forming the purest sword qi around the two sword spirits, the sword qi can be connected to each other, but the two sword spirits are relatively reading power, such an advantage is that when Nie Lin is facing the enemy, through the control of the sword heart, he can release the sword qi that is either violent or with killing sword intent, which is definitely the enemy's nightmare.

Because these two sword spirits have a negative effect, this is still a hidden danger, and it is also a mixed blessing, similar to when Nie Lin inadvertently condensed the first killing sword spirit, which will make his strength explode.

But the disadvantage is that if the state of mind can't be balanced, under the influence of the sword intent in the current two sword spirits, if he can't control it, it will be easy for him to become violent and irritable, or become a blood-devouring murderer who is eager to kill, which is definitely not what Nie Lin wants to happen.

However, Nie Lin deeply knew that the path of the sword he took, the way of heaven and earth, the rigidity and softness, yin and yang, good and evil, this is the inevitable tempering, and finally it will be returned to the infinite reason, and the true knowledge will prevail.

This so-called rigidity and softness, he already has a strong sword intent, so next, he must comprehend some gentle sword intent to balance, achieve a balance of rigidity and softness, so that the current drawback is invisible.

Sword intent, that is, the sword intent, heaven and earth, the moon and stars and other natural changes, as well as the law of evolution, all contain the sword intent, the so-called three thousand avenues, each different road that everyone takes, will produce different kendo intent, and finally the same way.

If Nie Lin didn't want to be too troublesome and didn't want to spend time comprehending the heavens and the earth to comprehend other sword dao principles, there was actually a shortcut, that is, those different types of top-level cultivation exercises.

The reason why he challenged the world in his previous life was to comprehend and feel different sword intents through the process of challenging those different types of masters, and finally to find the path that belonged to him, and finally formed the true soul of the sword and became a generation of sword venerables.

But just after it was easy to break, soft and fragile, in his previous life, he was a path to the black, and he didn't really understand the profound Wuji Zhi, so he was destroyed in front of the Heavenly Monument, so in this life, Nie Lin learned those painful lessons, and naturally wanted to take this path of infinite true balance and harmony.

I don't know how long it took, when Nie Lin's Guan Qi attracted the qi from this valley into his body, and soon filled the essence in his body, and after the sword qi was full, he felt that the injuries left by the sword spirit had recovered, and then he closed his efforts and opened his eyes.

It's just that the moment he opened his eyes, a fierce, violent, and murderous light flashed from his eyes, making his whole temperament suddenly become completely different in an instant.

It happened that after this scene was discovered by the sensitive Gu Menghan, Gu Menghan's body couldn't help but tremble, but when she came back to her senses and looked at Nie Lin, he returned to his original appearance, very peaceful, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

The scene at that moment just now really made his heart palpitate, Gu Menghan stopped cultivating, and saw Nie Lin get up and move his muscles and bones, and the bones clicked crisply, which was some subtle tremors brought by the tension of the muscles in his body when he squeezed his fists hard, Gu Menghan was also surprised to find that he could sense it.

So he also got up, Gu Menghan said strangely: "Linzi, you have been strong again, have you broken through your strength again?"

Nie Lin nodded, and said with a faint smile: "Actually, the increase in the level of strength does not necessarily have to be measured by strict standards, as long as your sword heart is tenacious and strong-willed, even if you face a strong enemy that is one or two levels higher than you, it may not be the end of defeat, it's a big deal, so don't worry too much about the comparison of those strength levels in the future, which will make your will be worn out by the other party's will to be superior to yours, in this way, it is a real defeat!"

When Gu Menghan heard this, he said thoughtfully: "What do you mean is that this is equivalent to a competition between strategy and tactics, which can strategically despise the enemy and tactically attach importance to the enemy's ......."

Nie Lin listened to Gu Menghan's words, nodded, and said: "The truth is the same, one is all the same, it can be taught and taught, haha......"

Who knows, when Gu Menghan heard this, he suddenly raised his head and glanced at him fiercely, and said, "Boy, what kind of expression do you have, I'm your senior sister......

Nie Lin laughed and said, "Then you are still my fiancée......"

"Kid begging to beat, you say it again!" Gu Menghan suddenly blushed, and pounced viciously to make a fuss.

......

Gaps in the mountains.

It was pitch black, with only a few fires flickering, and it was a little eerie.

Even a person with a strong surname like Liu Jingtao couldn't help but feel numb after seeing the countless bones floating on the water.

Here is Liu Chengfeng and others after some preparations, after a person to explore in this abyss, Liu Jingtao and Liu Jingbo attached great importance to this matter, and even called Yang Zonglin, and after some discussion, the three of them decided to come here to investigate in person.

Because the environment here is a bit weird, and there may be treasures, so after Liu Jingtao discussed with Yang Zonglin, he asked Liu Jingbo to take the children of the two families to hunt sword beasts in the nearby area for training, so as to protect them from being noticed that there was something wrong here.

He led Liu Chengang and Liu Chengfeng, as well as Liu Yichen of the junior, and Yang Zonglin took Yang Shifeng and Yang Shi'an, as well as Yang Yuxiao in the junior, a total of six people, made two rafts, and went down to the gap in the mountains to investigate.
