"I didn't expect you to survive this half-month of cultivation. The Sword Master looked Xiao Lin up and down, observing how much progress this kid had made during this time.

"It's okay, although I don't think it's much better. Xiao Lin muttered in a low voice, although the cultivation arranged for him by the Sword Saint was very targeted, the effect was not very obvious.

"Stinky boy, I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. The Sword Saint said angrily, "You've only been cultivating for so few days, don't expect to be able to improve much, it's more like laying a foundation." ”

"Is the foundation solid enough?" Xiao Lin asked, in fact, he was also confused about his own situation, he had too many powers far beyond his current combat power, and there were many means beyond the norm, which made it difficult to judge what level he had reached now, and whether he had continued to improve at the level of the capable person.

"Boy, I know what you're thinking. The Sword Master said, "I need to remind you, don't take the rating of the capable person too seriously, that is just one of the grading methods, and it does not represent the absolute division of power. ”

"But this level system has been in place for a long time, so it should still make sense. Xiao Lin muttered softly.

"There is a reason, but it is not absolute. The Sword Master said, "This set of rules lists the general as a first-level ability, and it stands to reason that this should be the pinnacle of the ability, so what level of ability should the throne be?"

"This ......" Xiao Lin was stunned, but he didn't know what to say.

"Then what level of ability do you think I should be?" said the Sword Saint with a laugh, pointing at himself.

"Uh......" Xiao Lin didn't know what to say, if the throne didn't have a clear level positioning, then the four saints who were like gods were not at all those simple numbers and levels that could be measured.

"Then what should I do?" Xiao Lin asked puzzled, "Everyone cares if they get stronger, I mean the able." ”

"Of course I do, even I can't be exempt from vulgarity. "But you need to care about yourself, not the numbers that don't mean much, you know what I'm saying." ”

"Probably so. Xiao Lin said with some hesitation, "Don't you need to go to the Sword Domain to cultivate today?"

"Based on my observations, I feel that your body is basically ready after this half month of practice. The Sword Saint said lightly, "You can start cultivating the Sword Yuan Realm." ”

"Uh, this. Xiao Lin said with some hesitation.

"What's the problem?" said the Sword Saint as he rolled his eyes, taking out a wine jug from his bosom and taking two sips, he found that since he began to teach Xiao Lin, the demand for wine had increased day by day, far exceeding the previous demand.

"I read the book you gave me, but I didn't understand it at all. Xiao Lin scratched his head and said with some embarrassment, "I don't know what's going on." ”

"I didn't expect you to understand. The Sword Saint seemed to have expected Xiao Lin to react like this, and there was no expression of surprise at all, "The current child must have no idea about the cultivation system back then. ”

"Hey, hey. Xiao Lin smiled awkwardly.

"Snort", a soft sound came out, and a bright flame suddenly appeared on the Sword Master's fingers, "This should be the ability you are talking about." ”

"Are you also a capable person?" Xiao Lin looked at the flame in surprise, this was beyond his expectations, the only ancient cultivator among the four saints turned out to be an capable person?

"It's not about the capable. The Sword Master said, "No matter what means it is, it is a kind of power, and this is a kind of Yuan Force. ”

"Yuan Li, this thing should be related to the Sword Yuan Realm. Xiao Lin asked.

"In fact, it should be said the other way around, the Sword Yuan Realm is a means created on the basis of Yuan Li, a kind of Kendo Realm. Juggernaut said.

"What the hell is Yuanli?" Xiao Lin asked.

"In ancient times, there were people who could manipulate fire, thunder and lightning, or seawater, and this ability was not new, it was known before. "And in comparison, I think that the ancients still have a more accurate understanding, and the current ability has lost something more authentic." ”

"Uh, I don't understand, what's more authentic?" Xiao Lin asked, tilting his head.

"Gu Xiu divided the power between heaven and earth into two types, one is called Yuan Li, and the other is called Soul Power. Juggernaut explained.

"Soul power should refer to spiritual power, which is the unique power of people with spiritual abilities. Xiao Lin muttered in a low voice, he was completely blinded, in fact, he didn't know what soul power was referring to.

"So to speak. The Sword Master nodded, "Soul power refers to spiritual power, and as an elemental ability, the power to control the elements is Yuan Force, and even the change system and so on are all the power of using Yuan Force." ”

"So, in ancient times, there were also change departments and mechanical departments?" Xiao Lin said in surprise, "How did I see the statement in ancient books that the ability was born from a later mutation, and it was not handed down from ancient times at all. ”

"The birth of the capable is complicated, and there is no clear record of it. The Sword Saint said, "But the power of the elemental system and the power of the ancient cultivators are in the same vein, this is a fact that has been affirmed, but the ability is not willing to admit it." ”

"Why?" asked Xiao Lin puzzled.

"I guess I don't want to have a relationship with a cultivator like Gu Xiu who has been eliminated by history. The Sword Saint sneered and said, "I'm afraid they don't want their noble powerhouse status to be tarnished, but they may never have dreamed that the elemental power I can use casually is better than theirs." ”

"This ......" Xiao Lin didn't know what to say, he had heard Su He mention these things before, as the capable people became more and more active in this world, the living space of ancient cultivation was further compressed, and it could even be said that it was difficult to move forward, many ancient cultivation schools have long been lost, and there are still many ancient cultivators who hide in the mountains and forests and do not care about the world.

"Forget it, let's not talk about these angry things, let's continue to talk about the problem of Yuan Li. The Sword Master poured himself two sips of wine, "If you want to successfully step into the Sword Yuan Realm, then you need to have enough control over the Yuan Force. ”

"So, I need to practice my ability to control power in the Sword Domain. Xiao Lin reacted, the cultivation in the sword domain was just to allow him to better control his strength, and subtly improve his ability to control Yuan Li, after all, according to the Sword Saint, the basis of his current moves is Yuan Li.

"It's not too stupid at all. The Sword Saint said lightly, "The cultivation of the Sword Domain is so that you can further improve your control over your strength, fortunately you realized the purpose of this cultivation, otherwise God knows how long you will have to grind." ”

Xiao Lin stuck out his tongue a little embarrassed, in fact, he hadn't found out, if it weren't for the ability of his right eye, I'm afraid he would have been confused until now, and he couldn't figure out what the cultivation in the Sword Domain was for.

"The power of the sword bone is activated so that you can make your body stronger. The Sword Master continued, "On the way of the sword, each breakthrough of the realm will bring an absolute increase in strength, if your body is not prepared, then it is very likely that you will encounter a huge backlash in the breakthrough process, which may endanger your own life." ”

"So serious?" Xiao Lin muttered in a low voice, although he had spent a lot of effort when he stepped into the Sword Body Realm before, at least it was not life-threatening, and as a result, the cultivation of the Sword Yuan Realm could already endanger his life.

"A cultivator's cultivation is a battle with God, sometimes it's more like a gamble, no breakthrough can be fully prepared, there are always some places that you will ignore. The Sword Master said softly, "There are many strong people in history who may not be able to continue to make progress in their lives because they have failed to cross some key thresholds, and some have even lost their lives. ”

"How can I feel like I have practiced for a long time and finally it all depends on luck. Xiao Lin muttered quietly.

"Luck is part of strength. The Sword Master said lightly, "Anyway, isn't it good luck that you can get the power of the Gate?" ”

"I wouldn't say it was good luck. Xiao Lin rolled his eyes and muttered quietly.

"Although your control over power is still rough, the power to face the Sword Yuan Realm should be enough. The Sword Master said lightly, "The next thing you need to do is to further understand the nature of Yuan Li, and at least be able to manipulate it freely." ”

"I think my control over Yuan Li is okay. Xiao Lin said dumbfoundedly, "I am not bad at controlling the flame element, and the master specially gave me special training for three months, I think the control of the flame is very good." ”

"You subdivide the use of Yuan Force into various elements, and then you tell me that your Yuan Force control is very good?" Sword Master looked at Xiao Lin like a fool, "That can only mean that your flame control is good, but it doesn't mean that you can control Yuan Force freely, you see, this is the disadvantage of the ability system, subdividing Yuan Force into various fields, but you can't start from the overall situation, why don't you control more essential power, so that you can almost control all the power." ”

Xiao Lin pondered for a while, and then said with some uncertainty: "Well, it seems to make sense." ”

"Nonsense, of course what I said is right. The Sword Saint knocked on Xiao Lin's head, and then took out a few crumpled books and threw them in front of Xiao Lin, "Give me a good reading of these books, if you don't understand it, then read it a few more times, and when you see it through, the Sword Yuan Realm will not be far away." ”

"Since I want to read a book, is it okay for me to cultivate?" Xiao Lin looked at the Sword Saint with hope, and said with a smile in his mouth.

"That's impossible. The Sword Saint showed a gloating smile and pointed out the door, "Today's cultivation water basin has been prepared for you, no, it should be a water tank." ”

"Water...... Water tank?" Xiao Lin was shocked and shouted miserably.

"Don't!"
