Ling Fei looked puzzled, seeing the opponent's sword light was upright and not evil, shining brightly, wondering why he had blocked his path. At this moment, Ling Fei cupped his hands and said: "Fellow Taoist, why are you blocking my way?"

  That young man looked at Ling Fei coldly and said: "Are you Ling Fei, son of Kunlun?"

  "Ling Fei Zi?" Ling Fei was taken aback, no mistake, it was indeed his own Dao number. It seemed that he had been specifically found by someone. "I am indeed Kunlun's Ling Fei, I don't know what business you have with me?"

  "I am Shu Shan Xu Jian Kong, I've heard that Kun Lun Ling Fei Zi's cultivation is profound and his swordsmanship is divine and magical, earning him the title of Divine Sword. I've come to learn from you." The man was indeed the senior brother mentioned by Xiang Hui.

  "Huh? A person from Shu Mountain? Ling Fei was shocked, he had long known that Shu Mountain was involved in this mess, and now they were blocking his path again. Talking about 'leading the way', it must be to show off their power. Looking at Xū Jiǎo Kōng's ability to wield a sword and fly, he was also a person who had reached the later stages of Qi refinement. Ling Fei had heard of Xū Jiǎo Kōng's reputation before, as one of the top three disciples of Shu Mountain, but he didn't expect him to be so young."

  Ling Fei said, "The reputation of the divine sword is the admiration of fellow Taoists, I am truly unworthy of it. As a disciple of Shu Mountain, your swordsmanship must be pure and refined. Ling Fei has also gained some insight into the way of the sword, so it's fitting to ask for your guidance."

  This time, Xū Jiàn turned pale, and a hint of appreciation flashed in his eyes. His tone was no longer cold: "Good, indeed refreshing. Just for this remark, you haven't disgraced the title of Divine Sword."

  Ling Fei slowly descended from a thousand feet high and landed on the quiet ground, looking at the illusory sword that fell with him. He thought to himself: This person doesn't seem to be cunning or deceitful, could it be that he really came to spar with me? No matter what his intentions are, I must win this battle. Losing myself is a small matter, but if the reputation of Kunlun is tarnished, that would be no trivial thing.

  Clang! A long hum, the Flowing Stream Sword floated three feet in front of him, its blue light illuminating everything within a ten-meter radius, making it seem both enormous and yet almost imperceptible. The sword's aura was like a primordial beast lurking in the darkness, ready to strike at any moment with a fatal blow.

  Xu Jian nodded silently in admiration: Indeed, a high-ranking Kunlun disciple. This swordsmanship has already grasped the three flavors within its depths. It seems that Ling Fei is not as weak as Hui said, but rather a formidable opponent for me.

  A three-foot-long, four-finger-wide golden great sword appeared in its true form, with a brilliant golden light. For a time, the golden and blue lights competed for space, neither yielding to the other, and they fought to a stalemate.

  "Heaven and earth are profound, the sun and moon's essence, capturing spirits and controlling ghosts, sword energy soaring through the air! Go!" The Void Sword was the first to launch an attack, with a single incantation, the golden light of the great sword split into over a hundred paths, each about a foot long, directly tearing apart Flowing Wave Sword's blue light, slashing towards Ling Fei.

  Not seeing any movement from Ling Fei, clang! Clang! Clang!!! The Flowing Sword also split into as many blue small swords as the golden light, both sides collided in mid-air, each time a sound was made, one blue and one golden small sword exploded, until the last sound, all the small swords transformed from the sword energy disappeared, a powerful Golden Energy burst out from the middle, shooting chaotically in all directions, many of the surrounding flowers, grasses, and trees were cut off at waist height.

  The two retreated simultaneously, their internal energy protecting their entire bodies. Their own bodies were probably not as hard as the trees, and if they collided, it would be a disaster. This comparison was unexpectedly even, but Void Sword knew he had lost by a hair's breadth. Taking the initiative to attack first, he had actually only managed to draw an even match.

  When competing in the flying sword technique, whoever makes the first move has the upper hand, and the one who moves later is at a disadvantage. However, since it's just an empty sword, it can still be considered fair and square. The previous incantation was meant to remind Ling Fei, but Ling Fei also seemed to have been prepared, silently reciting the incantation and making the first move. In terms of mental state, however, he is slightly at a disadvantage. Both sides are currently evenly matched.

  Xu Jian's face lit up with a smile, looking very pleased: "Unexpectedly, Kunlun not only has exquisite Taoist skills, but also sword cultivation that surpasses our Shu Mountain, the title of the first gate is indeed well-deserved."

  Ling Fei heard this and couldn't help but feel a bit of admiration for the eldest disciple of Shu Mountain. This person was indeed straightforward and extraordinary, and his own move had been somewhat cunning. The other party didn't mind at all, and instead sincerely praised him. Being able to teach a disciple like Xu Jian, it seemed that Shu Mountain's thousand-year-old sect had its own strengths.

  But just now, with one blow, Ling Fei knew that the real power of Ruo Xuan Kong was on par with his own, and he had confidence in this fight. He still had a few Kunlun secret techniques that he hadn't used yet!

  "Ling Fei Dao friend, this time I've come only for a sword match. As long as Ling Fei Dao friend can withstand this one sword of mine, then this trial will be considered my loss!"

  Xu Jian seemed to see through Ling Fei's intentions, knowing that apart from his swordsmanship, his magical attainments were also quite deep, but he was afraid that even so, he couldn't compare with the Kunlun secret method. So he spoke to provoke Ling Fei. This battle was of great importance, although it was a sudden idea, but it also concerned the reputation of Shu Mountain, and it was absolutely impossible to lose!

  Xu Jian's upright and honest personality makes him a beacon of hope for others, but this doesn't mean he's brainless. He's actually very clever and won't hesitate to use some minor tactics when necessary.

  At this point, Ling Fei couldn't refuse anymore. Besides, it was just one sword, what's the big deal? Even if it were a character from the early stages of the Nascent Soul stage, Ling Fei was confident that his Flowing Water Sword could take them on!

  "Since Brother Yu Dao has spoken, I was just thinking of witnessing the shocking sword path of Shu Mountain!" The momentum surged, and the blue light of the Flowing Sword increased greatly, with a hint of forming into a tangible omen. The blue light condensed into three lotus flowers the size of washbasins, floating above his head, vaguely protecting his vital areas. Ling Fei knew that Shu Mountain was originally renowned for its sword path, and this one sword from Yu Dao, which could be obtained even with just a hand, must be earth-shattering. Seeing Yu Dao's serious expression, Ling Fei couldn't help but focus his spirit to the maximum, mobilizing all his true yuan.

  One hand points to the sky, one hand points to the earth. The Void Sword seems to have the same demeanor as when the Buddha was born. The Golden Light Great Sword floats in the high air of over ten zhang, its golden light retracted, and it is in stark contrast with the blue light radiating from Ling Fei's Flowing Water Sword. The Golden Light Great Sword appears like a small black hole, constantly absorbing the surrounding light.

  He didn't know what kind of trick he had grasped, nor did he see any incantation being recited. The endless spiritual energy of the universe poured into Rong'er's body like a mighty river. Crackling sounds filled the air! Rong'er's entire skeleton rattled like stir-fried soybeans, his muscles swelling, and in an instant, he grew half a head taller. Fortunately, his Taoist robe was loose, or else it would have burst open, leaving him to flee naked.

  Even so, the bright yellow Taoist robe was still puffed up, and it looked quite comical.
