A glimmer of light crept into view, like a glimmer of light from the dawn, breaking the silence and long night.

The sound of rushing water came from nowhere, but it eventually merged with the dark cavern.

Coming to the end of the field of vision where the light became more and more obvious, Xu Yan put away the night pearl in his hand, and then he and Bai Bing came to a clear stream flowing vertically in the middle, and the overall space was very bright and spacious in a cave.

The cave was empty, and there were no extra items, except for a stone bed on the other side of the stream, against the stone wall, on which a dusty futon could be faintly seen.

Xu Yan and Bai Bing walked to the futon together, glanced at each other, and finally Bai Bing, who understood it, went up to check it, but when her slender green fingers just touched the futon, it completely turned into a pile of dust and fell on the stone bed.

Xu Yan looked at this scene without surprise, and casually glanced at this cave, which was covered with dust on both the ground and the stone wall, and said in a leisurely tone: "It seems that this place is indeed the cave where his old man once cultivated, but this place looks like a cave, but it is more like a stone room, and hundreds of years have passed since his old man practiced here, even if he left any books, it should have rotted into ashes like that futon." ”

Hearing Xu Yan's words, Bai Bing was naturally a little disheartened, but it was understandable, she worked hard to break into this Dushan, but in the end she got such a result, 'the bamboo basket is empty', no matter who it is, it will be unbearable.

Xu Yan ignored her lost expression, and went to the outermost edge of the stone chamber to take a look, and found that on the mountain outside the cave, a huge giant tree grew, and under the giant tree, there was a cloud and mist, and a bottomless cliff.

He watched the stream under his feet pouring down from the stone chamber to the bottom of the cliff, and suddenly understood that this was the origin of the evil stream that flowed through the ancestors of the hundred mountains and several deep mountains and streams: Qianzhang Waterfall.

A moment later.

Xu Yan retracted his thoughts and gaze, he turned to look back, only to see Bai Bing suddenly appear a foot behind him.

In her clear eyes, there was a purple light that flashed slightly, and she stared at him coldly, but after seeing him suddenly turn around, the purple light in her eyes quickly faded, and together with that incomparably cold face, it also softened instantly.

Xu Yan glanced at her meaningfully, didn't pay too much attention to it, but began to carefully look at the four walls of this stone room, and then got the answer he wanted in his heart.

He suddenly said lightly to Bai Bing: "Senior Sister Bai, you must have found the answer you wanted." ”

Hearing Xu Yan say this, a trace of gloom suddenly flashed in Bai Bing's heart, just now, she was just a millimeter away from being able to complete the purpose of this trip, but she was incredulously indecisive. And now that she heard Xu Yan say this, and saw him focus his eyes on the stone wall next to the stone bed, she clearly knew that she couldn't hide it anyway, or was he even earlier than she found out?

Otherwise, why would he use the word 'also'?

Although Bai Bing had faded the purple light in her eyes, her tone was unusual, and she inadvertently lost her original gentleness, only to hear her reply indifferently: "Yes, since this is the case, then let's do what we said in advance and read it together." ”

Xu Yan couldn't help but flash a sneer in his heart, but he didn't have any objections, and then he walked to the stone wall, waved his big sleeves, rolled up a large splash of clear stream, and turned into a heavenly sword qi and swayed on the dusty stone wall.

"Whoa~"

The clear stream crashed against the stone wall with a loud thud, but when it fell from the stone wall, it turned into jet black dirty water with a pungent musty smell.

However, Xu Yan and Bai Bing didn't care about the pungent smell at all, because their eyes were attracted by the carved patterns on the walls.

To say that it is a pattern is actually not accurate, because it is more like a series of sharp sword marks.

Xu Yan, who had seen the seven sword marks in Qixingdun, didn't feel too much surprise when he saw this scene, but he just felt that these sword marks looked a little familiar? After a long time, he suddenly remembered that on the icy and snowy night before, the swordsman in green clothes didn't let him see a sword mark on that sword cliff that was the same as the sword marks in front of him.

However, when Xu Yan completely focused his attention on these sword marks, he began to feel that compared to the sword marks left by Zhao Bailian at that time who used the sword qi between his fingers as a sword and used the seven-star sword technique, the sword qi patterns carved on the stone wall in front of him were much more streamlined and true, even if they didn't look as powerful and shocking as the seven sword marks on the Seven Star Pier, but they gave Xu Yan the feeling that someone had used this streamlined sword after taking away all the superfluous moves and edges.

On this stone wall, there are a total of twelve sword marks, lined up from left to right, they don't look much different, but as they gradually go back to the right, the sword marks left on the stone wall become thinner and thinner, so that the sword marks on the far right seem to only be as wide as the size of the sword blade itself, and if you don't look carefully, you will even be ignored.

Like Xu Yan, who was caught in concentration, Bai Bing was also staring at the sword marks on this stone wall at the moment, her eyes were like torches, staring at this stone wall tightly, refusing to miss even the slightest detail in it, because she had to see all these sword marks.

However, for her, these sword marks certainly had an irresistible attraction, but only she knew what she could learn from them.

So, time was in the two of them's respective comprehensions, like the stream behind them, slowly passing, and half a quarter of an hour passed in a blink of an eye, but looking at the appearance, they didn't mean to come back to their senses at all.

......

A tiger roar rang out from the dark cavern.

It didn't alarm Xu Yan and Bai Bing, who were motionless like two stone statues at this moment, but for another person who was still running in the dark cave and covered in blood, it brought her infinite fear and fright, because she couldn't imagine that that incomparably powerful aura would keep chasing her along this dark passage.

Feeling the severity of her injuries, this person's heart can be said to be bitter, but the pace under her feet does not dare to stagnate and slow down in the slightest, because once she stops, she is likely to be overtaken by the beast behind her.

There is no doubt about the outcome, there is only a dead end.

However, even if she took the lead in setting off from this cave for nearly two quarters of an hour, due to the huge gap in strength, the distance between her and the Blazing Tiger was still constantly narrowed after all, of course, this was due to the fact that the Blazing Tiger itself was too large to exert its maximum speed in the cave, otherwise outside the cave, even Xu Yan estimated that it would be difficult to escape its pursuit.

The dazzling fiery red color illuminates the entire dark cavern, and on the body of the blazing tiger, there is a blazing fire, as long as it passes through, the entire dark cave will be completely illuminated.

It was quite difficult for it to navigate the cavern, for there were many places, even for its size, where it would be difficult to get through, and it would not have taken the risk of entering the cavern if it had not felt the breath of the humans who had killed its children.

But it was so close to the scent it had smelled before, it could even feel that it would be able to catch up with her in a few moments.

Feeling the powerful aura coming from behind her getting closer and closer to her, in the heart of this bloodstained person, it can not be said that she is not panicking, she has been running in this cave for almost an hour, but she has never found the exit of the cave, so the fierce and dangerous aura behind her is finally close to her.

"Boom"!

A blinding red light instantly burst out of the cave behind her.

In her panic, she turned her head to glance at it, and then the pale face, which had already lost too much blood, became even more pale as paper, and it was obvious that she also recognized the identity of the blazing tiger at this moment.

"Am I going to die?"

This is the biggest question hovering in her mind at the moment.

Looking at the Blazing Flame Tiger, who was only a few dozen zhang away from him, and at the same time was still a huge body, not far from adulthood, not to mention her, even if it was replaced by any sword cultivator below the upper three realms, he would undoubtedly feel hopeless.

On the other hand, the Blazing Tiger, when it broke out of the curve and saw a human, roared in rage.

A powerful air current, suddenly gushing out from the mouth of the Blazing Tiger.

In an instant, a turbulent wave of air like a hurricane was formed, surging towards the woman in front of her, who was constantly fleeing, and at the same time, its own body did not stop at all, and also ran towards her.

The woman who was running hard saw this scene, her silver teeth clenched but refused to give up, and continued to run forward, however, her cultivation was still too low compared to the Blazing Tiger, so after just a dozen breaths, her body was swept and hit by the Blazing Tiger's air current.

The next moment.

The woman felt like she had turned into a leaf floating in the storm, without the slightest weight, and was directly knocked out dozens of feet, and then it was more like a completely unconscious sandbag, slamming to the ground.

"Poof!"

After the woman fell to the ground, she couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of scarlet blood from her mouth.

She felt as if her entire skeleton had been shattered, making her limp, and her head slammed, and then, her body, which had been hit hard, continued to follow the inertia irrepressibly, rolling forward for more than ten feet.

"Boom" a sound of falling water!

An incomparably cool feeling instantly overwhelmed all her consciousness.

There is no doubt that the woman eventually fell into the stream that overflowed from the mountain, and when her body fell into the stream, the stream, which was incomparably clear, was instantly stained with blood, but the woman herself could never be seen again, because the moment she fell into the stream, she passed out completely.

Looking at the human who was hit by his own blow and finally fell into the stream, the blazing tiger did not relax in the slightest, and directly ran after it, and then, after it chased the stream, it finally saw a glimmer of natural light from the day.

Without hesitation, it continued to make a big bend along the stream, and chased frantically towards the human who seemed to have turned into a huge duckweed leaf and continued to flow out of the stream.

......

After Xu Yan's consciousness fell into the first sword mark on the stone wall, a familiar picture flashed in his mind, that is, the picture of Zhao Bailian teaching him the fifth form of the Seven Star Sword Technique, which was something he couldn't understand no matter what, but he didn't think too much about it, and casually looked at the second sword mark.

However, just as the sword intent he felt on the first sword mark was exactly the same, what he experienced on the second sword mark was still the appearance of Zhao Bailian using the fifth form of the seven-star sword technique, which couldn't help but make Xu Yan frown.

Followed by.

Third Sword Mark......

Fourth Sword Mark......

The Seventh Sword Mark......

Until the tenth sword mark, the picture that flashed in his mind was still the same scene, but what surprised Xu Yan was that the green-clothed swordsman in his mind had become a white-clothed swordsman at some point, and he could clearly see from the white-clothed figure that she was not a man.

After realizing the change in this scene, Xu Yan immediately opened her eyes and wanted to see her true face, but she was always the same as Zhao Bailian, just kept repeating the sword in her hand that was similar to the fifth style of the Seven Star Sword Technique, but there was no sign of turning around at all.

So, in desperation, Xu Yan could only jump out of his consciousness from the tenth sword mark and set his eyes on the eleventh sword mark.

A quarter of an hour later.

Xu Yan jumped out of consciousness unexpectedly and very disappointed.

However, this time, he didn't immediately focus his gaze on the last sword mark, but his eyebrows furrowed and pondered, but no matter what he thought, he couldn't understand why the artistic conception in all the sword marks on the wall only gave him the feeling of the same sword move.

In the end, Xu Yan shook his head very helplessly, and continued to focus on the last sword mark.

The twelfth sword mark was engraved on the far right side of the stone wall, Xu Yan had already glanced at it roughly at the beginning, so he knew that its width was only as wide as the blade, so it was more like a thin line left on the stone wall than a sword mark.

Xu Yan's consciousness was once again immersed in the perception of the sword marks, but what he didn't know was that he had been in front of this stone wall for a full five quarters of an hour, and as he replaced the sword marks, the time he spent would increase a little longer.

Without the slightest surprise, when his consciousness was focused on the sword mark again, another graceful figure appeared in his mind.

She was dressed in white and never turned around, but the right hand holding the sword kept raising and swinging the sword, and so on, never stopping, Xu Yan stared at her tightly, and an extremely familiar feeling flashed in her heart.

"Who the hell is she?"

This was what Xu Yan wanted to figure out the most at the moment, but he couldn't do it, because the woman wouldn't turn around at all, as if her duty was just to keep repeating the sword that was very similar to the fifth form of the Seven Star Sword Technique, but with slight differences.

In the end, Xu Yan gave up his intention to continue to check her face, because he began to realize that this sword-wielding woman was just a scene in his mind, not real, and just after he gave up this thought, when he looked at her again, all his attention shifted from her body to her sword.

Unconsciously and as if it were natural, when Xu Yan's consciousness began to float with the rhythm of her sword, his whole body was suddenly shocked, and at the same time, his vision also seemed to appear black. Instantly, when he could see things again, he found that he had come to a paradise like a landscape painting.

Xu Yan looked at the beautiful world in front of him like a dream with shocked eyes, and looked at the familiar scene in front of him, and finally woke up completely.

"It's in ...... In the sword of Fuyao. ”

Xu Yan let out a whisper in his heart. At this moment, no matter how stupid he was, he knew that the figure with the white-clothed body that kept flashing in his mind was the female sword fairy 'Fuyao' he had seen with the same name as his sword.

"Hey!"

Xu Yan, who learned the final answer, did not feel relieved, but couldn't help but sigh softly.

Combined with the twelve sword marks left by the fifth-generation sect master on this stone wall, combined with the five sword moves that 'Fuyao' had personally taught him in the current world, combined with what Zhao Bailian had said to him on the main peak and the set of seven-star sword techniques that had been taught to him, how could he not know what kind of sword trick he had just comprehended.

"You finally get the idea. ”

An incomparably pleasant voice sounded again from this world.

Xu Yan followed the voice and saw the woman in white suspended in mid-air as he wished, and then nodded to her.

The woman in white had her back to him, just as he had imagined in his mind.

She raised her right hand slightly, and a long sword flew into her hand, and she then said to Xu Yan: "I didn't expect that your growth rate would be faster than I expected. ”

Xu Yan smiled lightly at this, but did not answer.

"Now that you know the answer, follow my movements and see if you can use this sword. ”

This time, Xu Yan nodded heavily.

He had asked her why she also used the Seven-Star Sword Technique, and she replied that she was not using the Seven-Star Sword Technique. ”

"He once told him that this set of seven-star sword techniques was taken from the first seven styles of the fragmentary sword techniques created by his master, but the inspiration for the creation came from his master's master, the sword technique 'You Yunfu' that has been passed down through the ages. ”

Xu Yan was in this world, following the woman in white in the air to raise his sword, obviously he didn't have a sword in his hand, but he was more majestic than when he had a sword.

As everyone knows, it's at this moment.

Outside this world, in the stone chamber of Nandong Peak, in the scabbard behind Xu Yan, who had his eyes closed, there was a three-foot sword, which had already trembled.
