The old man took a sip of the wine in the cup and said with a smile, "I said where did this girl's spirit wine come from, it turned out to be given to her by you." ”

Then, the old man took out the jade talisman and returned it to Lu Chen.

Immediately, the old man was about to salute Lu Chen.

Lu Chen hurriedly dodged and said, "Senior, this is absolutely unacceptable!"

For a while, the scene came to an impasse, the old man insisted on giving a disciple to Lu Chen, but Lu Chen insisted on not accepting it.

At this time, Ni Jingjing stood up and said, "Great-grandfather, I don't think Lu Daoyou will be worshiped by you, it's better to do this, if Lu Daoyou is willing, you can ask him to serve as the Supreme Elder of this sect, in this way, we have not disobeyed Master Mei's will." ”

When the old man heard this, he said very seriously, "Lu Xiaoyou, then let's each take a step back, you serve as the Supreme Elder of the Sect, and between you and me, we are commensurate with senior brothers, how about it?"

Lu Chen thought about it, then nodded and agreed, if he wanted to get the inheritance of Mei Changkong's predecessor in the Spirit Sword Sect, he had to have a legal identity, otherwise the old man would not be able to explain to the disciples in the sect.

Thinking of this, Lu Chen arched his hand to the old man and said, "I've seen Senior Brother!"

The old man was a lover, and laughed, "Senior brother doesn't have to be polite, I'm happy today, let's have a good drink!"

Lu Chen nodded, the two of them were drunk this day.

On the second day, Spirit Sword Sect Ancestor Ni Zhesheng announced that Lu Chen was appointed as the Supreme Elder of the Spirit Sword Sect, which caused an uproar within the sect.

However, Lu Chen didn't know this, because he started the retreat directly.

At this moment, in the forbidden place of a sect of the Spirit Sword Sect, Lu Chen was sitting cross-legged, and in front of him was a huge mountain cliff.

There are countless sword characters engraved on the mountain cliff, this cliff is called Wanjian Cliff, and it is the second forbidden place of the Spirit Sword Sect.

Although this mountain cliff looked extremely ordinary, there was a solemn aura permeating the air, and Lu Chen's eyes were tightly closed, constantly feeling the sword intent engraved on the cliff.

These sword words were left by the ancestors of the Spirit Sword Sect, and each sword word represents a sword intent.

At this time, Lu Chen's eyes opened, and his gaze fell on one of the sword words, and an invisible sword light shot out from the sword words, flying towards Lu Chen's primordial god.

Soon, Lu Chen's body trembled, and his Yuan Shen continued to comprehend this sword intent.

Two months have passed unconsciously, and in these two months, Lu Chen has never left here, meditating calmly and feeling the sword intent on the cliff.

Beside Lu Chen, there was also an old man, it was Ni Zhesheng, the ancestor of the Spirit Sword Sect, who had been teaching Lu Chen sword intent for the past two months, which benefited Lu Chen a lot.

In the meantime, Ni Jingjing has also been here several times.

Every time he felt the sword intent, it was very dangerous for Lu Chen, if it wasn't for the old man protecting Lu Chen, Lu Chen didn't know how many times he had fallen.

It is no exaggeration to say that in the past two months, the old man has spent a great deal of energy and cultivation, and even burned part of his vitality, and the old man at this moment is much older than two months.

And Lu Chen, in the past two months, his perception of swordsmanship has been growing rapidly.

The old man smiled and said, "Senior brother, you are the monk with the highest comprehension I have ever seen, I think back then, I have been here for ten years, and the sword intent I comprehended is not as big as your harvest in two months. ”

For the kind old man in front of him, Lu Chen was grateful, and arched his hand and said, "If it weren't for Senior Brother Protector, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

The old man waved his hand and said, "You and I don't have to see each other like this!"

Then, the old man Zhengse said, "This sect has a sword trick supernatural power, called the Xuantian Nine Swords, this supernatural power is said to have been obtained by the ancestor of the mountain from the immortals of the upper realm, if you can learn all the nine swords, it is enough to sweep the entire spiritual realm." ”

Lu Chen couldn't help but secretly smack his tongue when he heard this, this Xuantian Nine Sword was so powerful.

The old man said, "Back then, with the seventh form of the sword technique, Master Mei was able to fight with ordinary Lingzun for three hundred and not fall behind.

It can be seen from this that if you learn the eighth form, you will be able to equal the Lingzun, and if you learn the ninth form, it is not impossible to cut the Lingzun level monk under the sword. ”

The old man continued, "Of course, for our sword cultivation, it is also very important to improve our own cultivation realm, otherwise, it is impossible to comprehend a deeper level of sword intent. ”

Lu Chen nodded and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother, for your advice!"

"Xuantian Nine Swords, every time you master one more style, you can increase the power of swordsmanship several times, but this Xuantian Nine Swords is too mysterious, and only Master Mei has cultivated to the seventh form of the Spirit Sword Sect Patriarch in the past dynasties. ”

Then, the old man passed the mantra of the Xuantian Nine Swords to Lu Chen word by word.

As the sword technique of the Spirit Sword Sect, Lu Chen immediately made an oath that he would not pass on this sword technique to a third person.

The old man said, "Senior brother, with your cultivation, if you can condense a hundred spirit swords, it means that the first type is introductory!"

Lu Chen nodded, raised his right hand, and streams of spiritual power merged into his fingers.

According to the sword technique, Lu Chen's whole body spiritual power suddenly let go outward, and with a finger of his right hand, the sound of sword roars suddenly rose not far away, echoing in the entire forbidden land.

Lu Chen crossed his knee and withdrew his right hand, and with that finger just now, he had successfully condensed ten spirit swords.

Lu Chen said calmly, "Senior brother, I will practice diligently and master the first form as soon as possible." ”

"Now, the map of the Sword Immortal is in the Spirit Sword Sect, and everyone knows about it, I don't know what the movements of the five major sects of the Northern Spirit Continent are?"

The old man sighed and said, "With the current strength of my Spirit Sword Sect, I can't compete with the five major sects, and the old man guesses that in three or four months, they will definitely come to the door and force us to hand over that map." ”

Lu Chen said, "I have some friendship with the predecessor of the Ghost King Sect, and I should be able to use this relationship to maneuver around at that time." ”

When the old man heard this, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Senior brother, the negotiation with the Ghost King Sect is all up to you." ”

In the old man's voice, there was a thick exhaustion, the strength of the Spirit Sword Sect was in the middle of the North Spirit Continent Sect, and he only had more than two hundred years left in his life, and he really couldn't rest assured about the Spirit Sword Sect in his heart.

At this moment, he was pointing out Lu Chen with all his might, because Master Mei had left a remnant of a ninth-order spirit weapon in the sect back then, and said that in the future, the person who held the jade talisman of his identity would be able to control it as a way to defend against enemies.

Lu Chen looked at the old man and said with a solemn expression, "Senior brother, I have received the great favor of Mei Changkong's senior, since he asked me to come to the Spirit Sword Sect with the jade talisman, I am a part of the Spirit Sword Sect, and I swear to live and die with the sect!"

The old man glanced at Lu Chen, his eyes showing relief.

In order for this son to successfully comprehend the sword intent, he even lost his Shouyuan for decades.

He had a faint hunch that this little junior disciple in front of him was his hope and the hope of the Spirit Sword Sect.

"This son does not forget the old grace when he is in crisis, this kind of person is enough to make the old man rest assured that he will entrust the Spirit Sword Sect, and even more assured that he will teach him the Xuantian Nine Swords......"

The old man nodded secretly, then raised his right hand, and continued to demonstrate to Lu Chen how to manipulate spiritual power, fuse sword intent, and then condense into a spirit sword.

Time passed slowly, and another three months passed in the blink of an eye, and during these three months, the situation in Beilingzhou was calm on the surface.

However, there were still some unknown monks who began to infiltrate the scope of the Spirit Sword Sect.

It's just that these people's cultivation is not high, and they are all killed by the patrolling monks sent by the Spirit Sword Sect, even if there are some people with advanced cultivation who avoid the patrol monks, they are often killed by the four elders of the Spirit Sword Sect when they are close to the mountain gate.

In the past three months, more and more sword bodies have been condensed from the spiritual power in Lu Chen's body, and the sound of swords from the Ten Thousand Sword Cliff echoed over the entire Spirit Sword Sect, making the monks of the Spirit Sword Sect, although most of them have never seen Lu Chen, are firmly in their hearts.

Whether it is the high-level of the sect or the disciples in the sect, they all know that this Lu Chen, who emitted the sound of the sword, is the Supreme Elder appointed by the ancestor.

However, wherever there are people, there will be strife, and there will be right and wrong.

In the Spirit Sword Sect, the same is true, not everyone recognizes Lu Chen, on the contrary, there are many people who do not accept Lu Chen, including the Great Elder Zhuo Yucheng and the Third Elder Deng Xinhou.

There are also some Dharma protectors and core disciples, who also feel that Ancestor Ni Zhesheng's decision is too hasty, a monk in the middle of the tribulation, holding the identity jade talisman of Mei Changkong's ancestor, turned into a Supreme Elder on an equal footing with the ancestor.

It's just that Ni Zhesheng has always been the same in the Spirit Sword Sect, so these people don't dare to disobey.

In the past three months, whether it was day or night, Lu Chen had almost never stopped cultivating the Xuantian Nine Swords, especially the Spirit Sword Sect Ancestor Ni Zhesheng beside him who kept demonstrating the obscurity of it to Lu Chen.

At the same time, the old man passed on his lifelong cultivation experience and experience as a sword cultivator to Lu Chen without reservation, making Lu Chen's comprehension of the first form of the Xuantian Nine Swords more and more profound.

On this day, the spiritual power in Lu Chen's body was integrated into the sword intent, and after being equipped with a supernatural mantra, as he pointed out, seventy spirit swords were instantly conjured, emitting a crisp sword sound, permeating the entire forbidden land.

With the continuous practice, the spiritual sword that could be condensed by the spiritual power in Lu Chen's body still reached the limit, and the feeling of tearing suddenly spread throughout Lu Chen's body, at this moment, Lu Chen suddenly opened his eyes, the Heaven Swallowing Technique was running at full strength, and the spiritual trees around the cliff all withered at this moment, and the spiritual power of heaven and earth contained in it all poured towards Lu Chen, and the spiritual power in his body became majestic again.

Lu Chen's state reached its peak, and the tearing sensation in his body due to the loss of spiritual power also disappeared.

The old man on the side was dumbfounded, even if he wanted to recover the spiritual power in his body, it was almost impossible to meditate and vomit for several hours without the aid of the elixir. And Lu Chen only took a few breaths, and all the spiritual power in his body recovered.

At this moment, the old man admired the vision of the patriarch Mei Changkong to the extreme, and the patriarch could see that his future was unlimited when he was in Lu Chen's Mahayana period, and sent out the jade talisman in advance, so that Lu Chen and the Spirit Sword Sect formed an indissoluble bond.

What made the old man happy was that the Xuantian Nine Swords could not be comprehended at all by those who were not destined to comprehend it, and he once passed this magical power to the sect master Li Taiqing, who had been enlightened for decades, but in the end he still failed to practice the first form.

The old man's great-granddaughter, Ni Jingjing, was slightly better, although she was able to cultivate this magical power, but so far, she had only cultivated to the second form.

At this moment, Lu Chen said to himself, "It has already condensed to seventy sword bodies, and there are still thirty ways to go." ”

Taking a deep breath, the spiritual power in Lu Chen's body exploded, and his clothes were all wet with sweat.

The old man reminded, "Senior brother, the key to the first form of the Xuantian Nine Swords is to urge the spiritual power in the body to continuously condense the sword body, and finally press these hundred sword bodies into ten spirit swords, and these ten spirit swords attack at the same time, which is the sign of the first type of completion." ”

At this moment, in front of Lu Chen, ninety sword bodies had already been condensed.

Ninety sword bodies were suspended in the air, and only the last ten were missing, and the most important step of the first style was completed.

"Senior brother, only by practicing the first form of the Xuantian Nine Swords, can the old man rest assured that you will become an elder of the Supreme Sect, and you can also rest assured that you will break into the Sword Pavilion and get the inheritance of Master Mei. ”
