Under the clear moonlight, a gentle breeze blows.

The fragrance of flowers and plants wafted in the air, and from time to time there was a faint sound of insects.

A winding stone road, quiet and uninhabited, leads to the distance like a snake.

At the end, there are nine peaks towering into the clouds, like a bridge connecting heaven and earth, and the world around is lush green, and when the wind blows, it makes a rustling sound, swaying up and down, like a sea of green.

Suddenly!

There is a light on, sickness!

Whizzing by.

Suddenly, the night sky roared and the wind rose!

As soon as the sound of breaking the air sounded, it suddenly disappeared, and if it weren't for the strong wind, it would only make people wonder if it was an illusion.

"Senior sister. A woman in white with a plain and indifferent face stood respectfully in front of the winding stone road, and saluted a woman who was much shorter than herself, but exuded a powerful momentum, her tone and demeanor were extremely respectful.

This woman is Nalan Xue, who became the guardian of the Demon Sword Sect a year ago.

Compared with a year ago, her aura is more restrained, and the true yuan on her body is more condensed, obviously cultivating a lot. And her demeanor is much more indifferent than before, there is a dark majesty on her face, and her temperament is a lot outstanding, obviously this year's training has not only allowed her to cultivate well, but also erected enough prestige.

The woman who was much shorter than her was naturally Feng Ziyan, one of the thirteen sword immortals in the world.

This little girl who looks like a child, but the power contained in her body is beyond many people's understanding.

Among the younger generation, there will never be more than ten people who can be as famous as her, or even high and low!

And Nalan Xue already knew when she saw Zi Yan at this moment that her strength and realm had been completely consolidated, and she was more condensed and terrifying than when she came out of the customs five days ago.

Because five days ago, when Zi Yan was walking with the sword, the sword light could not be completely converged, and the sword light in the sky and the scattered sword intent could not be completely gathered together at all, which was obviously not familiar enough with the control of the Tiangang Seven Star Sword. But it's only been five days, and the silver light that flashed in the night sky just now is very small, and looking at the sky from Nalan Xue's position, there is only a trace of it.

And its speed was far beyond her imagination, it was still more than ten miles away when she saw that silver light, but in the blink of an eye, it had already narrowed the distance of nearly ten miles, and it had already fallen in a flash. It hadn't even caused a trace of sword qi to leak out, and the standing point on the stone path was intact, which had obviously reached the point of truly controlling it at will.

However, in five days, this level can be reached, and Ziyan's talent can naturally be seen.

Ziyan had such strength and talent, Nalan Xue was not surprised at all. What really surprised her was the man standing behind Nalan Xue!

It was because of this man that she met Xie Simin for the first time, and because of this man, she showed her flying sword at the outer gate for the first time, and because of this man, she became the protector of the Demon Sword Sect this year.

At this moment, when Nalan Xue saw Ye Xuan again, she had already felt the strong aura of qi and blood on Ye Xuan's body at the moment, as well as that unparalleled momentum, and even if she hadn't forcibly locked on Ye Xuan with her divine sense, Nalan Xue wouldn't have felt Ye Xuan's existence at all!

He was clearly standing in front of his eyes, but the breath of his whole body seemed to merge with this heaven and earth, exhaling it with a mysterious law. It was the first time Nalan Xue had seen it to such a degree, and at this time she couldn't help but think of the situation when she was instructing the other party to practice swords a year ago, and that time she knew that the man in front of her was extraordinary, but she didn't expect that he had such a terrifying talent and ability.

Of course, Nalan Xue wouldn't know that Ye Xuan's means of restraining his aura came from Qi Tianwei.

No one knew that in addition to cultivating the "Eight Styles of the Desert Knife", Qi Tianwei did not cultivate Qi Tian's introduction technique, but cultivated a quotation called "Gathering Breath Technique". The speed of this trick to absorb the aura of heaven and earth is not fast, and the effect of refining the physical body is not very good, for a family like the Desert Sword Qi family that belongs to the martial arts lineage, the strength of the physical body is fundamental, so Qi Tianwei, who cultivates the "Breath Accumulation Technique", is regarded as a deviant.

However, the real power of the "Breath Accumulation Technique" lies in the fact that it can allow cultivators to completely evade the lock of divine consciousness, and can even completely hide between heaven and earth, standing in front of them, but they can't feel the other party's breath at all. And these skills that Qi Tianwei gave to Ye Xuan were just the skin on the "Breath Accumulation Technique", and they could only be used to the current extent, if they were forcibly locked by someone with their divine sense, they would still be targeted.

But if the opponent didn't open the sea of consciousness and didn't cultivate divine sense, then he wouldn't be able to discover Ye Xuan at all.

For the martial artists of the Innate Realm, Ye Xuan was the most terrifying existence.

Because of his sneak attack, he can completely be unaware of the gods and ghosts!

Seeing the look of surprise in Nalan Xue's eyes, Ye Xuan smiled very gently, the temperament on his body did not make people feel domineering because of the strengthening of his strength, but there was a natural, comfortable, and confident noble atmosphere between his gestures. It is as if he himself is the Tao of everything, and the Tao he pursues is to constantly surpass himself.

Ziyan is not a person who will greet others, her surname is originally relatively straightforward, although there are occasionally some petty naughty and mischief, but this will only be shown in front of close friends.

In front of the vast majority of people, Zi Yan is a cold and powerful existence.

"You've arranged for everyone else?" Zi Yan glanced around, making sure that there was no one else, before asking.

"Yes. Nalan Xue's surname is also relatively cold, and as soon as Zi Yan asked, she returned to her original indifferent and capable temperament, "They have all gone to rest, according to the instructions of Master Xie Tai, I am here to wait for you." ”

"Open the door. Ziyan nodded and said lightly, "If someone asks......

"I only saw Senior Sister Ziyan coming tonight with the sword seal of Elder Xie Taishang. Nalan Xue said without the slightest hesitation, "According to the rules of the door, anyone who holds the Elder Three Elements and Nine Sword Seals and wants to leave the secret realm does not need to ask. ”

While saying this, Nalan Xue turned sideways, but the stone wall behind her suddenly rippled.

As the ripples gradually spread out, a small black dot was created in the middle of the ripples, and then quickly enlarged, like a black mirror, but at this moment, the reflection in this mirror revealed a ground full of rubble. In the corner next to this mirror, you can also see a huge stone block, which is full of potholes, and some larger stones not far away, as if worshipping the top of this huge stone.

This is the entrance where Ye Xuan rang the sword bell and entered the secret realm of the Demon Sword Sect!

"Let's go. Ziyan whispered, and then took the lead in stepping forward.

At this moment, if someone stands by and watches, they will find that there is a leg in the air that is empty.

Extremely weird!

However, Ziyan had obviously been in and out of here many times, and she didn't pause at all after she stepped out, but continued to walk forward. Ye Xuan smiled and nodded to Nalan Xue, and after thanking him, he followed with a step, but there was no surprise in his eyes that ordinary disciples who had left the secret realm of the sect for the first time.

Seeing Ye Xuan like this, Nalan Xue had an illusion: Could it be that this person has been in and out of the secret realm of the sect many times?

In her opinion, since entering this secret realm, there are usually only two kinds of people who have stepped out of the secret realm again.

One is that he was swept out of the sect, and there was only frustration and sadness in his eyes, and the second was that he was entrusted with a heavy task and obtained the right to go out of the sect to practice, and there was only excitement and surprise in his eyes. But Ye Xuan's expression was indifferent, unsurprised and unpleasant, as if he was tired of going in and out.

Of course, Nalan Xue really didn't know, Ye Xuan had long been used to going in and out of here.

When he became famous and often went in and out of the Red Maple Forest of the Demon Sword Sect's Yijian Peak, Nalan Xue was probably only a disciple who had just entered the outer gate of the Demon Sword Sect.

After seeing Ye Xuan and Ziyan both go out, Nalan Xue waved her hand, and the ripples stopped as if frozen, and then forced all these water ripples towards the center with a strange power fluctuation. Under pressure, the circle of light like a black mirror began to shrink, until it turned into a black dot again and disappeared, and this strange power fluctuation regained its calm.

In an instant, the mountain wall was still the mountain wall, and there was no longer that gravel area.

To the touch, the mountain wall is full of reality, and it is obviously not an illusion.

"Here's to you. Zi Yan saw Ye Xuan come out, and after the entrance to the secret realm of the Demon Sword Sect was closed, she suddenly raised her hand and threw two things to Ye Xuan.

Ye Xuan stretched out his hand to take it, but found that these two things were actually sword seals!

It was different from the sword intent talisman given to Lu Xin at the beginning, which would turn into a sword intent talisman when it sensed danger. The sword seal is a thing that the sword cultivator seals a wisp of transformed sword intent in the rune seal, and its usage is also very simple, just like the previous actual combat assessment, as long as the rune seal is crushed, it can be used, and there is no need to infuse the true element into it, and because it is a wisp of sword intent that has been transformed, its power is much stronger than its many attack types of rune seals and rune paper.

"When I come out this time, I still need to go to Fang Yun Dao and ask someone to come over and transfer the dragon veins in the sect to the foot of the Nine Swords Peak. Ziyan frowned slightly and said, "So there is no way to send you directly to Cold Water City, I can only send you out of here, and the rest of the journey will depend on you...... These two sword seals will be used for your protection. ”

Ye Xuan also knew that all this was in Xie Simin's plan.

On the grounds that Zi Yan had regained her strength and her cultivation was more sophisticated, she should have been allowed to reappear in the cultivation world to prove that the Demon Sword Sect was strong, and she was responsible for going to Fang Yun Dao to invite the Taixu Yunlong real person to come over and transfer the dragon vein, leaving the secret realm of the Demon Sword Sect, but in fact, she secretly took Ye Xuan out of the Demon Sword Sect. Back then, Xie Simin used this method to turn the lifeless Taohua into a life of nine deaths, and successfully escaped from the secret realm of the Demon Sword Sect, which also made Taohua famous.

And the distance between this Demon Sword Sect and Fang Yundao is too far, even with the speed at which Zi Yan's current Imperial Sword is flying, he doesn't know how many months it will take to go back and forth, so this matter can't be delayed. Because once delayed, it will not be able to explain clearly at that time, but it will attract the attention of some people in the Demon Sword Sect, because the matter of moving the dragon vein is the most important matter of the Demon Sword Sect at present, and any delay for any reason will become a serious crime.

This point was when Zi Xuan and Ye Xuan were about to leave, Xie Simin had repeatedly told him, and Zi Xuan also knew that if he insisted on going his own way this time, he might harm Ye Xuan, so he didn't dare to delay at the moment, so he could only send Ye Xuan away from the Southern Wilderness, and Ye Xuan would have to figure out the rest by himself.

"It's okay, I have a way to go back after leaving the Southern Wilderness, but remember to come to Hanshui City to find me afterwards, I have a piece of star iron with a little energy left, although it is not much, but if it is extracted and integrated into the Tiangang Seven-Star Sword with several other materials, it can at least improve the Tiangang Seven-Star Sword by one grade." Ye Xuan also knew Ziyan's difficulty, smiled, and didn't particularly care, "When the time comes, call Taohua too, and the three of us can get together again." ”

Hearing Ye Xuan's words, Ziyan showed a smile and nodded: "Hmm." ”

And she herself swallowed back into her throat that she wanted to ask who mentioned Situ Haoyue in front of him that day.

Such a rare and happy atmosphere, Ziyan didn't want to destroy it.
