In a thick stone room with a length and width of dozens of zhang, Qing Ya stood quietly with a knife in her hands, and after three breaths, she let out a clear sigh, and the long black knife in her hand turned into thousands of knife shadows as if it came to life, and stabbed towards the giant ashlar in the middle of the field like a dragon.

There were countless clangs in the air, which was caused by the blade breaking through at a very fast speed, and the tip of the knife, which was rubbed red and yellow by the air, silently sank into the boulder and disappeared, and in an instant, it pierced countless small holes from the other side.

After a breath, Qing Ya resumed the posture of holding the knife flat, but the white mist on the top of her head was steaming, large drops of sweat slipped down from her forehead, and small pieces of water stains were revealed through the practice clothes, and the whole dress was soaked through, revealing the graceful figure inside.

Ticking, as the first bead of sweat dripped to the ground, the boulder the size of a small room in front of Qingya's body collapsed, and thousands of gravel pieces of large and small stones were scattered on the ground, and a heavy powder was raised in the field.

Qing Ya covered her mouth and nose and quickly retreated, and came to the cubicle on the sidelines to rest, while thinking about the advantages and disadvantages of the knife just now.

"The Seven Killing Sword Technique passed down by that person is really powerful, just learning the first style has such a power, if you can integrate all the seven styles, you can't imagine what level you can reach, it's a pity that your basic cultivation is still too poor, only one knife and the follow-up is weak and almost collapsed, if you really face that person, you can't solve the enemy at once, you can only let others slaughter it, alas......"

Qing Ya spent half a month in the practice room, during which she spent all her thoughts on cultivation except for the necessary rest, and she hadn't gone out for a long time.

On this day, Wei Tao was stuck in the opening hand of the second style of the Seven Killing Knife Method, and he had a splitting headache and was bored and nauseated, so he threw the long knife and prepared to go out of the practice room to relax.

As soon as Qingya walked out of the door, she saw a figure who had been waiting next to her for a long time.

"Let's go, Elder Lan has a life, you need to follow me to meet him. ”

Qing Ya was shocked in her heart, Elder Lan has an order?

What exactly is the order?

Hasn't this extremely mysterious Elder Lan been in retreat, why did he suddenly get out of the customs and directly find someone to come to my cultivation place to find me!?

Although she was a little puzzled, but now the situation is stronger than people, Qing Ya didn't dare to have any neglect of Elder Lan's words, for fear that it would be a monstrous disaster if she was not careful, she asked in a low voice what was going on, and quickly followed the man out of the stone room.

"How have you been practicing lately?" Qing Ya came to Elder Lan's living room, and Elder Lan, who was sitting quietly and waiting, opened his mouth and asked.

Qing Ya gave a deep salute and said respectfully: "The younger generation cultivates the Seven Killing Sword Exercises, but I feel that my own cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and I can't break through it for a while. ”

"The cultivation of the Killing Dao Exercise is all about perseverance, how can you climb the peak and overlook all living beings without a heart that can endure loneliness and loneliness, how can you reassure the Lord with a temperament like you who can't settle down, can't sink in, and can't endure hardship?" Elder Lan's tone turned cold, as if he was very dissatisfied with Qingya's cultivation progress.

Lord ......

That mysterious, powerful, terrifying, and eerie ghost-faced man.........

Qing Ya was shocked in her heart, but she still maintained a calm expression on her face and said: "What the elder taught me is that the younger generation also understands that it is not a good thing for the mind to float, but after I comprehended and practiced the first form of the Seven Killing Sword Method, all things withered, but I couldn't touch the way to the second type of Qianli Ice, and I couldn't enter the country after thinking about it for a long time, and after a long time, I was upset, and I couldn't do it myself, and I don't know why." ”

Elder Lan was obviously attracted by Qing Ya's words, and his attention immediately shifted from reprimanding her to the cultivation of the Seven Killing Sword Technique, he frowned, and after muttering for a long time, he said slowly, "You first cast the first form for me to see." ”

Regarding Qingya's cultivation, this is an important matter that Ishikawa personally explained, and Elder Lan can't help but pay attention to it.

Taking the long knife thrown by Elder Lan, Qing Ya got rid of distracting thoughts, and her mind advanced into the realm of emptiness and dustlessness, and after a while, the long knife suddenly came out of its sheath, and the chill instantly spread throughout the entire courtyard.

Under the sudden light of the knife, Elder Lan's eyes were blazing, and he looked directly at Qing Ya through the knife curtain, taking in every subtle movement of her.

Although he was surprised by Qing Ya's rapid progress in a short period of time after being absorbed by the Lord, Elder Lan kept his calm expression without any change in his expression.

Elder Lan said in a deep voice: "The sword momentum is chaotic but not condensed, the killing intent is scattered but not gathered, your comprehension in the first form of the Seven Killing Sword Technique is still far behind, and you haven't noticed the most fundamental point yet." ”

"Please make it clear to the elders. Regarding the matter of her own cultivation, Qing Ya also put away her other thoughts and asked sincerely.

Elder Lan first asked, "Did you feel that your soul was weak and your strength was weak after the sword, and you didn't have the strength to fight again?"

Qing Ya's calm expression instantly collapsed after she collected the knife, and her whole person's spirit quickly emptied like a punctured balloon, and then sighed in a low voice: "The elder sees it very accurately, it is true. ”

Elder Lan played with the ink jade wrench in his hand, a fleeting cold expression appeared on his face, and then he smiled and said coldly: "You are a blind leaf, you can't see the mountains, why can't you comprehend the second form of the Seven Killing Sword Method, why do you get tired after performing the first form of everything withering, the fundamental reason is also outside the knife." ”

"The reason is outside the knife!?" Qingya asked, looking up.

Elder Lan bowed his head and said: "Yes, the cultivation of killing the Dao, the soul body is the base, and the trick is the technique, just like the water container, the difference between the amount of water in a bowl and a jar is the same, the same move, how can it be the same as splashing people with bowl water and splashing people with tank water, and for the vast majority of external exercises, whether they can be used freely to achieve the desired effect depends on the user's own killing intent foundation." ”

Next, Elder Lan gave some guidance on Qing Ya's later cultivation, and then turned the conversation to the main topic.

"I have finished my retreat this time and sent someone to look for you, in fact, to take you to fulfill a command of the Lord. ”

Qing Ya took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, "When will the elder leave, what is the mission?"

Elder Lan took a sip of the tea on the stone table next to him, and said in a slightly inexplicable tone, "Do you remember your original teacher?"

Qingya froze in place, not knowing how to answer.

"Sure enough, I don't remember anymore, no wonder, it's normal not to remember, we went out this time to take you to see it again. Elder Lan's face was full of cold and murderous expressions.

"This is also an order that the Lord personally gave before leaving, and he is very concerned about your practice. ”

"My master's ......" Qing Ya silently recited the name in her heart, and a vague fragment of memory swirled and lit up, and the scenes that had long been blurred became clear again.
