Chapter 29: The Hall of the Hidden Front
It's been more than two years, and it's been a long time.
When Xu Jin returned to the Nine Shadows Sect from Sanssouci Valley, he immediately practiced behind closed doors, and he worked tirelessly day and night. Finally, he successfully broke through the bottleneck of the fourth order of the Soul Condensation Period and stepped into the fifth order realm of the Soul Condensation Period.
At this time, it has only been five years since the Great Bi period of the Xuanyin Land.
Although Xu Jin's cultivation speed was much higher than that of ordinary disciples, it took him more than two years at the fourth order of the Soul Condensation Stage to make a breakthrough. The road of cultivating the truth, the more difficult it will be, Xu Jin estimates that in the last five years, at most, he will be able to break through the bottleneck of the fifth order and enter the sixth order of the soul condensing period, whether he will be able to cultivate to the peak of the sixth order, it is still unknown, as for breaking through to the seventh order again, it is absolutely impossible.
With the cultivation of the sixth order of the Soul Condensation Period, entering the land of Xuanyin may already be better than ordinary disciples, but compared with the three disciples selected by the major sects, it is far from the same. What's more, of these eighteen selected disciples, there are only three of them who can finally get out of the Xuanyin Land alive. Calculated in this way, Xu Jin's chance of surviving this big competition is really slim.
However, after five years of cultivation, Xu Jin rarely thought about it. Since there is no way to avoid it, there is only a chance to move forward desperately and cultivate diligently, and there may still be a glimmer of life. If it is said that being anxious about this affects the progress of cultivation, then even this last ray of vitality will be extinguished.
After successfully breaking through the fourth-order bottleneck of the Soul Condensation Period, Xu Jin went to Yang Tianhong's cave mansion.
This is the rule that Yang Tianhong set for his disciples, and if he encounters a problem in cultivation, he can ask for advice, and after the bottleneck of each level is broken, he will also personally investigate it in order to give guidance.
Yang Tianhong is very satisfied with Xu Jin's progress. After five years of entry, he cultivated to the fifth level of the Soul Condensation Period, which is very good.
"Xu Jin, you can be regarded as a little successful now. With this token in hand, you go to the Hidden Blade Hall to choose the right blade. You already have some foundations, and with the combined blade, you can exert more power......"
Yang Tianhong said, handing Xu Jin a small white jade token.
Xu Jin hurriedly took it with both hands.
Subsequently, Yang Tianhong explained to him some of the rules for selecting blades. The most important thing is the word "edge". If there is such a fate between the blade and the master, then this blade is the most suitable, and the two can exert the greatest power when combined. Of course, if you can't find a blade that is "fated" with Xu Jin in the Zangfeng Palace, then you can only refine a blade by yourself. There are many such things. Many cultivators' natal weapons are self-refined. As the monk's cultivation increased, the power of the magic weapon gradually increased.
It's just that Xu Jin's cultivation is shallow, and it takes a lot of time to refine the natal weapon.
What Xu Jin lacks now is precisely time.
It would be great to be able to find the right blade in the Hidden Blade Palace.
Xu Jin thanked Yang Tianhong at the moment, and went straight to the Zangfeng Hall in the fog.
As the name suggests, the Zangfeng Hall is where the Nine Shadows Sect collects all kinds of blades. Xu Jin flew the tea scene, and then came to a valley, in the valley stood a lonely hall, far away, Xu Jin felt a huge murderous aura, from the hall.
According to Yang Tianhong's narration and classic records, the collection of this Tibetan Feng Hall is all the magic weapons and blades used by the ancestors of this sect in the past dynasties.
The Netherworld Monk is the body of the Yin Spirit, and has a longer lifespan than the monk of the Yang Realm. But it will not be an eternal existence. When you reach a certain level of longevity, if you can't fly to the upper realm, you can only fall into reincarnation and start a new life process again. Especially after stepping into the gathering period, the Heavenly Tribulation will follow, if you can't resist the Heavenly Tribulation, the Netherworld Monk will fall, and even the soul will be destroyed, and you will not be able to live forever.
A small part of the blades in the Tibetan Feng Hall were left by the seniors of the sect who had died in their lives, and most of them were left by the predecessors who had fallen in various battles.
It is said that there are tens of thousands of blades in the palace.
It can be seen that the Nine Shadows Sect has been established for a long time, and the monks in the sect have emerged in an endless stream, which can be called the peak.
The Zangfeng Hall is managed by deacons as usual, and the deacons in the soul training period are also routine no matter what is trivial, and all the chores are handed over to the disciples. The person on duty in the Zangfeng Hall today is a disciple of the sixth order of the Soul Condensation Period.
He checked Xu Jin's token and let him go without saying a word.
After entering the door of the Zangfeng Palace, there was a huge jade carving shining with blue and white light in front of him, Xu Jin hurriedly took a closer look, it turned out that what was displayed on this jade carving was the orientation map and brief introduction of the small halls in the Zangfeng Palace.
Xu Jin looked at it for a while, and he had a rough idea in his heart.
The blades hidden in the Zangfeng Hall are the most flying swords. The flying sword is also the usual blade used by most monks. Secondly, there are also a lot of blades such as knives, guns, axes, and axes. In addition to the offensive blades, there are also defensive weapons and other types of weapons in the Hidden Blade Palace, and so on.
It is said that there may be more than one blade that is related to the monks.
It depends on each person's fate.
If Xu Jin is lucky, he may be able to find two or three suitable blades in the palace, then it is said that Xu Jin's hope for survival has increased by a few points.
Of course, Xu Jin is not so greedy in his heart, as long as he can choose a suitable blade, he will be thankful. At least you don't have to refine it yourself, which takes time.
After Xu Jin carefully inspected the jade carving, he walked towards the Flying Sword Pavilion.
This Flying Sword Pavilion is the largest small hall in the Zangfeng Palace, occupying a small half of the space.
As soon as Xu Jin walked into the Flying Sword Pavilion, a strong murderous aura rushed to his face. Xu Jin stood still, looked closely, and saw that there were countless flying swords in the pavilion, which were placed uprightly on various blade racks. Xu Jin took a rough look and saw that there were at least thousands of flying swords in the pavilion. There are large and small, and the styles are different. The largest flying sword, three zhang long and two feet wide, was much larger than Xu Jin's body.
Seeing this cold and shining giant sword, Xu Jin couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
The monk's flying sword, of any size, can be turned into nothingness and stored in the monk's body. It's just such a giant sword, but I don't know how to hide it in the body? Whether it is a person hidden in a sword or a sword hidden in a person, it is terrifying to think about.
However, Xu Jin still followed the rules, bowed deeply to this giant sword, and silently recited the mantra in his heart.
This is the mantra of Xu Jin's Natal Exercise Soul Breaking Slash. If this greatsword is related to him, it will change somewhat. As for what kind of changes will happen, Xu Jin doesn't know, he must be different and can be perceived.
The greatsword didn't react.
Xu Jin shook his head, went straight to the next blade rack, and came over again.
On this blade frame, there are several flying swords, some of which are strange in form, and the patterns on the hilt reveal the charm of simplicity and nature, which seems to be carved with endless vicissitudes of time. There is also a flying sword that is very petite and delicate, no more than a foot long, and looks more like a dagger.
Still no response.
Xu Jin spent almost an hour worshipping all the flying swords, but he was empty-handed and found nothing.
All the flying swords in this Flying Sword Pavilion were not interested in Xu Jin at all.
Xu Jin had no choice but to shake his head and sigh, withdraw from the Flying Sword Pavilion, and go to other small halls. To Xu Jin's surprise, a full six hours passed, and his footprints had almost traveled through all the small halls of the Zangfeng Palace, but he still found nothing, and not a single blade had undergone even the slightest slight change.
The tens of thousands of blades in the entire Zangfeng Hall unceremoniously rejected Xu Jin as their new master.
Xu Jin couldn't help but be frustrated.
In this way, he could only refine a natal artifact by himself.
Before Xu Jin came to the jade carving again, he was a little unwilling to observe carefully to see if he had missed any blade palace.
Suddenly, the three inconspicuous characters of "Evil Feng Pavilion" were imprinted into Xu Jin's eyes.
This Evil Blade Pavilion is self-contained, located in the deepest part of the Hidden Blade Palace, and is not adjacent to all the other temples where the blades are collected, and must pass through a long passage to reach it.
Seeing the words "Evil Feng Pavilion", Xu Jin's heart jumped for no reason.
The Netherworld Cultivator is not a decent family in the cultivation realm, and he enters the Tao with the body of a yin soul, giving people the feeling that he always has a three-point evil spirit. And this palace is named after the "evil edge", which shows that even in the Nine Shadows Sect, the blades hidden in it are also very evil.
Xu Jin didn't hesitate and walked straight towards the passage.
In any case, the Evil Edge Pavilion was his last hope, and he had to give it a try.
Even if he returns empty-handed in the end, he doesn't care about delaying so much longer.
As soon as I came to the entrance of the passage, a cold yin wind blew through my body. Xu Jin is now a fifth-order cultivator in the soul condensation stage, and his soul body is solidified, like a living person. Ordinary yin wind blows, and I don't care. But being blown by this yin wind, he couldn't help but shiver, and a trace of black mist came out of his body, like cold hairs standing on end.
At the same time, a very ominous aura also surged into Xu Jin's heart.
Xu Jin couldn't help but be vigilant.
This Evil Blade Pavilion is indeed an evil gate, and before it has entered, it has already presented such a vision.
It is said that powerful blades and magic weapons can often be psychic, even if no one controls them, they can also burst out and hurt people. Isn't there such a powerful psychic magic weapon hidden in the Evil Blade Pavilion?
Xu Jin used the Nine Secret Techniques, and a thick mist suddenly condensed around his body, and slowly walked into the passage.
The further he went, the more the cold wind prevailed, and even with the spiritual mist protecting his body, Xu Jin also felt very embarrassed.
This passage is about more than 30 zhang, Xu Jin went in step by step, and walked for a long time before he came to the two doors.
It looked like it was just an ordinary wooden door, with a hideous ghost head carved on it, and the eyes of the ghost head were like living creatures, emitting a strange luster, staring at Xu Jin coldly.
Xu Jin stabilized his thoughts, took a deep breath, and raised his hand to push open the wooden door.
In an instant, Xu Jin only felt that the blood in front of him was soaring into the sky, and an astonishing evil aura surged forward, as if something tangible, hitting his body hard. The black mist in front of Xu Jin rolled, his chest shook violently, and he retreated several steps in a row to stabilize his figure, and he was suddenly shocked.
