Chapter 5: The Supreme Patriarch

Although Yun Feng was excited in his heart, he was not a reckless person, he looked at the kitten and shouted at the entrance of the cave: "Yun Feng, a registered disciple of the Junior Phantom Sword Sect, can there be a senior who cultivates here?" Yun Feng shouted so loudly three times, but no one responded, and the kitten made a mocking expression at Yun Feng very anthropomorphically, as if to say that his behavior was stupid. Yun Feng smiled secretly in his heart, he didn't expect this kitten to be extremely human, looking at its expression, there should be no other talent nearby. After Yun Feng once again used his divine sense to confirm that there was no danger under the cliff, he jumped down and went straight to the ancient tree, and began to carefully pick herbs. At this time, the kitten leaned towards the entrance of the cave again, keeping a distance of about ten zhang from Yunfeng, and at the same time staring at Yunfeng without blinking, as if he was both wary and curious about Yunfeng. After about half an hour, hundreds of herbs were finally collected by Yunfeng. Yun Feng patted the storage bag with satisfaction, feeling the joy he had never felt in his heart, thinking that he could directly advance to the sect examination with these herbs, and it would not be in vain for the senior brother's hard work.

Yun Feng looked up at the black and white kitten in the distance, and found that it was staring at him vigilantly, if it weren't for the kitten's unintentional guidance, how could Yun Feng have gained so much. Thinking that this demon beast forest is in danger, and a defenseless little beast can hardly survive, Yun Feng's compassion rose, and he said to the black and white kitten: "Kitten, kitten, thank you for bringing me here, why don't you go with me to the Phantom Sword Sect, I will take good care of you, let's be good friends, okay?" The kitten looked at Yun Feng blankly, as if he didn't understand his words, and screamed milkily at Yun Feng, turned around and ran into the cave. Yun Feng didn't know if there would be a demon beast hidden in this cave, and he was afraid that the kitten would be injured, so he quickly followed.

As soon as he entered the cave, Yun Feng immediately noticed that something was unusual, and Yun Feng was unable to release his divine sense in the cave. Yun Feng lit an illumination charm and chased after it step by step with his naked eye. The ancient cave is bottomless, and there is no trace of artificial excavation, which should be a natural formation. Yunfeng followed the black and white kitten all the way for about two hours before he saw the bottom of the cave. At the end of this ancient cave is a large and bright cave, and the four walls are inlaid with precious Chang Ming stone. He looked around carefully, in the middle of the cave was a stone platform for meditation, the stone platform was engraved with dense words and patterns, on the stone platform there was a futon for practicing meditation, next to the futon there was a neatly folded, seemingly ordinary cyan gown, on top of the robe was a cyan ring. There was a giant sword stuck upside down behind the stone platform, and the scabbard was covered with dust, and it was impossible to see the grade, so it should have been a long time since anyone touched it. The walls around the cave seem to be banned, and although they are densely engraved with small characters, the contents of the walls cannot be seen clearly with Yunfeng's current overhaul. In a corner of the cave, there is a blue ancient pool, the pool water is bottomless, at this moment the black and white kitten is hiding in the ancient pool, as if enjoying it very much.

This cave is extremely deserted and simple, and there is no popularity at all, as if it has been uninhabited for thousands of years. Yunfeng cultivation is low, and he is still self-aware, and he does not dare to touch the items in the cave. With a thought, he walked to the stone platform, knelt down in front of the blouse, kowtowed respectfully three times, and said in a low voice: "The junior strayed into the senior's cave mansion because of collecting herbs, disturbing the senior's Qing Xiu, and asked the seniors to forgive me, and the juniors left immediately." He reluctantly glanced at the black and white kitten, and said in his heart that if this beast relied on this hole to hide, it would be safe. With that, he got up and shook the stone platform again, then turned to leave.

Suddenly, a strange scene appeared, on the originally empty futon, there was an old man with crane hair and a childish face out of thin air, like an immortal, although the handsome eyebrows revealed a decadent atmosphere, but people did not dare to look directly. When Yun Feng saw this scene, he shouted in his heart, sure enough, there was a master, but fortunately, he had just been polite and did not act rashly. He was about to kneel down again, but he was lifted up by an extremely soft force. "Since you have kowtowed to me, and you have performed the rites of master and apprentice, it means that the two of us are destined, so you can be my apprentice. The voice seemed to come from the sky, ethereal, but incomparably real.

Yun Feng's heart trembled, this senior who had never known him actually wanted to accept him as an apprentice, although this person seemed unfathomable, but he had already entered the Illusory Sword Sect. In the monastic world, unless you are expelled from the sect, you will be hunted down by the whole sect for life if you join another sect, which is a rule that has existed since ancient times. What's more, Master Chu Ye of the Illusory Sword Sect gave him a life-saving grace, and Senior Brother Liao Wushuang's nurturing grace. Yunfeng is not ungrateful. Hurriedly said: "The seniors misunderstood the meaning of the juniors, the juniors are just making amends for entering the cave, not apprenticing to the master, and I am already a disciple of the Phantom Sword Sect, so I can't do anything disrespectful to the master." After Yun Feng finished speaking, his heart was full of anxiety, and he didn't dare to breathe, in his opinion, it was easy for the old man to want his life. But the old man didn't seem to be angry, and patiently listened to him finish speaking, without the slightest expression on his face, but said faintly: "Give you two choices, or die like an ant now, or go to my disciple, learn a skill, and become a peerless powerhouse?" Yun Feng felt that the space around him suddenly cooled, and his body was instantly imprisoned, unable to move a bit. In front of the old man, he is really like an ant, and he has no power to resist.

He was extremely frightened in his heart, but he did not hesitate to say: "Even if I die, I will not change to the seniors, the people who deceive the teacher and judge the door, the younger generation will never do it, not to mention that if I really betray the master, I will not escape death with the cultivation of the younger generation." Yun Feng didn't say how noble he was, and his words showed that he didn't want to betray his master, and at the same time, he also pointed out the truth that he was dead. Who knew that the old man was not angry when he heard Yun Feng's words, but nodded, and his expressionless face also showed a little satisfaction, and said with relief: "From the time you entered the cave, I have carefully observed, you have good bones, you are well-mannered, not greedy or angry, just and upright, worthy of being a disciple of my Phantom Sword Sect." Don't be in a hurry to refuse the matter of apprenticeship, how do you know that I am not a member of the Phantom Sword Sect?" After the old man finished speaking, Yun Feng felt that the power imprisoned in his body disappeared, and he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, Yun Feng's heart at this time was like a stormy wave, the elders of the sect and above all had portraits for the disciples to identify, this person's appearance was not like any elder in the sect, he tried his best to think about the possible situation in his mind, he had never seen such a worldly master, the biggest possibility was ...... As soon as he thought of this, Yun Feng's body was shocked, and he asked in disbelief: "You, are you the ancestor of Shui Qing?" When the old man heard this, he seemed to smile even brighter, but he did not nod his head to admit it, and after a while, he said slowly: "You can still think of Shui Qing's kid, although your talent is not as good as Shui Qing, but the cultivation is more about chance, if you make good use of today's opportunity, it is not impossible to become the second Shui Qing Daoist." ”

Yun Feng's shock at the moment is simply indescribable, listening to the old man's words, he should be the predecessor of the Phantom Sword Sect, but who can call Shui Qing Master Ancestor a kid? In addition to the supreme real person of the Founding Ancestor of this sect, the cultivation of Shui Qing Master Ancestor is the highest achievement, is this person really the Founding Ancestor who has lived for three thousand years? Yun Feng immediately shook his head when he thought of this, the Supreme Ancestor belongs to the Dao Venerable powerhouse, and the lifespan is only about a thousand years, and the Illusory Sword Sect has a history of three thousand years since its establishment, no matter what, the Supreme Ancestor will not live to the present. While Yun Feng was racking his brains to guess, the old man seemed to have seen what he was thinking, smiled knowingly, and said slowly: "Boy, you can't guess it, I am the founding ancestor of the Phantom Sword Sect. After that, he actually recited the general outline of the magic sword technique to himself. Yun Feng's heart was shocked, it was impossible for outsiders to know about the General Outline of the Illusory Sword Technique, and this person knew a lot about Shui Qing Patriarch, let alone deceive him so much in order to accept a person with a shallow cultivation like him. As soon as he thought of this, Yun Feng pounced and knelt down, kowtowed three times to the supreme real person, and said respectfully: "Master Zu is above, disciple Yun Feng is willing to meet Master Zu." This time, the Supreme did not stop Yunfeng, but let him kowtow and salute.

Seeing that his disciples were so well-behaved, he said lovingly: "Feng'er, you don't have to be too shocked, now I am just a wisp of remnant soul transformed by divine consciousness, my body has already been seated thousands of years ago, the foundation of the Phantom Sword Sect was not stable, I fought against two Dao Venerable powerhouses who came to attack, I was seriously injured, and I didn't have time to pass on the mantle to future generations, so I used secret techniques to leave a wisp of remnant soul before I sat down, just to find another successor." Shui Qing also went to this cave back then, although he was extremely talented and sharp, but he had a violent personality, and he was not suitable for cultivating the Phantom Sword Technique, and his cultivation was no longer under me, and the mantle was useless. I didn't expect that this would be another thousand years, and if no one came here in ten years, my remnant soul would no longer exist. Fortunately, today, there was a junior of the Illusory Sword Sect with good talent and good conduct, which really made me die without regrets. Hearing this, Yun Feng was extremely pious again, and said respectfully: "Junior disciple Yun Feng, the thirty-sixth generation registered disciple of the Phantom Sword Sect Luo Jianfeng, the ancestor is above, and the younger generation is willing to listen to the teachings of the ancestor." Hearing this, Supreme nodded with satisfaction: "Since you and I are destined to be here, and you are also a descendant of my family, I will pass on your mantle." I hope that you can make achievements on the way of cultivation and carry forward the sect, and I will have no regrets. From this day forward, you will stay here for the time being, and I will pass on to you everything I have learned in my life. Yun Feng looked at the supreme true person's loving face, his eyes were a little moist, Master Zu should be the best person for him except for the master and senior brother, just like grandpa, I must not let him down, I will definitely carry forward the Illusory Sword Sect and carry forward the Illusory Sword Technique.
