Still is a grand ancient temple, and under the temple's giant tatami mats are also placed as they were billions of years ago.

  Ji Ning suddenly appeared in the grand hall, and with one glance, he saw a black old ox and a yellow-haired big bear. He immediately bowed respectfully and said: "Ji Ning has seen the two seniors."

  "What about your later stage?" Huang Mao Da Xiong nodded slightly, "Your progress in refining Qi is quite fast, but you're only at the ninth level of Shenmo Refining Body, which is a bit slow."

  "Has everything been revealed?" The black old cow was shocked, and then looked at Ji Ning, "Ji Ning, little one, it seems that you are much stronger than the fourth generation master of Dongfu, Lie Yan. He died when he was in the Wanxiang realm."

  Ji Ning smiled.

  Huang Mao Da Xiong nodded: "Ji Ning is naturally much stronger than Lie Yan, Ji Ning's innate talent can even compare to that of a reincarnated immortal."

  "Seniors are overpraising." Ji Ning smiled, feeling pleased with the praise. "I wonder if I can make it through the third floor of the War God's Temple now?"

  "Not enough." Huang Mao Da Xiong shook his head.

  "What!" Ji Ning exclaimed in surprise.

  At that time, I left Yanshan and went to Anping City. At that time, I had already broken through the second layer of the War God Temple. Now four years have passed, my divine demon body is stronger, and I have also entered the 'Sword Dao'. The guardian spirit of this cave, Huang Mao Da Xiong, actually said so resolutely that I was not confident in breaking through the third layer at all.

  "My seniors don't even know what realm I've reached with my swordsmanship now." Ji Ning said.

  "Ji Ning, you don't know this," said Huang Mao the Great Bear, shaking his head. "The first and second levels of the War God's Temple can be exchanged for a Human-stage magic treasure or an equivalent treasure... The third and fourth levels can be exchanged for an Earth-stage magic treasure or an equivalent treasure... In other words, every two levels in the War God's Temple will have a major leap in power."

  "A big leap?" Ji Ning frowned.

  "En, the first and second floors of the Temple of War God, the test is generally for those who have reached the Purple Mansion level in their cultivation of divine magic body."

  "The third and fourth trials of the War God Temple are for those who have cultivated their divine body to the level of Wanxiang." Huang Mao Xiong looked at Ji Ning, "Generally, only when one's divine body has reached the Wanxiang level can they hope to pass the third trial. But you've only reached the ninth heavy of the 'Chi Ming Jiu Tian Tu', your foundation is relatively too weak, although you have a divine technique on your body, this trial's difficulty has already taken that into account, after all, this trial is targeted at the successive masters of this cave."

  "Like the Seventh and Eighth Floors of the Temple of War Gods, what is being tested is whether one's cultivation of the Divine Demon Body has reached the Return to Void stage. And back then, Zong Hua Immortal's Divine Demon Body had never broken through, even though his Qi Refining had made a breakthrough, and he had even achieved perfection in the Return to Void stage in terms of Qi Refining, but he had never passed the Seventh Floor... until after many years of bitter cultivation, when he became a Loose Immortal, did he finally pass the Seventh Floor... I suppose you can understand how difficult it is."

  Ji Ning nodded silently.

  Yes.

  Jiuhua Xianren had been cultivating Qi Liu's 'Earth Immortal Perfection' for a long time, but he had never broken through the seventh layer.

  It's just as difficult to break through the third layer of hope when the aura is full and the 'Wanxiangyuan' is complete. It's best to have a divine body refining technique, inherit the 'Star Plucking Hand', or be one of the top three divine techniques in the Divine Technique Temple, with an extremely high level of cultivation, only then can you break through.

  This is the test left by San Shou Dao Ren!

  "Of course you can also try." Huang Mao Da Xiong said, "You have two chances to break into the Temple of War in the Zifu layer of Shenmo Lian Ti, and you've only used one. There's still one more!"

  Ji Ning smiled: "No rush, I came today mainly because I want to go to Xingchen Hall."

  "I'll take you there." The black old cow said, "The War God Temple is extremely difficult. In the past, even the immortal Huahua was driven almost mad by the War God Temple. It's better to go to the Star Temple. Inside the Star Temple, every place contains the mysteries of the Tao, it's a sacred place for enlightenment."

  The big yellow bear is also following behind.

  One cow one man one bear walked towards Starlight Temple.

  Inside the Starlight Temple, it is still that big mountain. The top of the mountain is a lush green with thriving vegetation, while the bottom is a desolate and barren rocky beach, on which stands a thatched cottage.

  The sky is full of twinkling stars.

  "Every time I come, it feels different." Ji Ning looked at the gurgling stream on the rocky beach, looked at the wild grass growing out of the rocks, and looked at any empty star in the sky, feeling the subtlety of the Way - "That is the way of fierce fire, that is... the Sword Way?"

  Ji Ning raised her head and took a look.

  "Jian Dao?" Ji Ning couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

  "Have you entered the way of the sword?" The black cow beside him looked at Ji Ning in surprise.

  Ji Ning nodded: "Right, after I left Yanshan for Anping City and entered the Black and White Academy of the Gate School, I soon stepped into the sword path."

  "Jiuhua also set foot in the sword path at first, Jiuhua Xianren was a very famous swordsman... unfortunately, he didn't understand the entire sword path." The black old cow shook its head and sighed.

  "The way of the sword is a great path." Huang Mao Da Xiong walked up from behind, slowly saying, "With the heart of a sword immortal and utmost sincerity towards the sword, if one's comprehension is high enough, they can generally set foot on the path of the sword."

  Ji Ning muttered to herself.

  To put it simply, apart from his master, the Black and White Academy had also stepped into the path of the sword. In the mouth of this cave spirit, it seemed like no big deal. However...this cave spirit used to follow the Three Lifespan Daoist of the Primordial Chaos Demon, so having a high vision wasn't strange at all.

  "It's easy to step into the sword path, and it's not difficult to have some achievements on the sword path. But to thoroughly understand a complete sword path is extremely difficult." Huang Mao Da Xiong looked at Ji Ning, "In your hometown, even with the Great Xia Dynasty ruling over this vast world, I'm afraid there isn't a single person who has fully grasped a complete sword path!"

  Ji Ning held her breath quietly.

  "The small way is the small way, the great way is the great way, and the heavenly way is the heavenly way!" Huang Mao Da Xiong sighed. "The difference between the three is huge, like Ji Hua who can comprehend nine complete ways. But even if he were given a billion years, he wouldn't be able to comprehend one great way! My master was born as a primordial demon in the chaos, and at birth, he knew and grasped one great way. Later on, he comprehended many more great ways, and ordinary ways are numerous... Unfortunately, even when my master built this cave, he still hadn't grasped one heavenly way."

  Ji Ning's ears perked up.

  Three Lifespan Daoist?

  Born knowing it, was the birth of chaos controlling one great way? Controlling many great ways?

  "Understand well, your talent is far superior to that of Ji Hua and others. If you can comprehend the great way, you may become a powerful being who can roam freely in the three realms, and only then can you be compared to your master, San Shou Dao Ren." Huang Mao Da Xiong looked at Ji Ning, "In this vast world ruled by the Great Xia Dynasty, perhaps you are the first to grasp the 'Sword Way', this great way."

  Ji Ning's blood suddenly boiled with excitement.

  No matter whether it's Beihang seniors or even stronger Jiuhua Xianren, although they have all walked a long way in the sword path, they still fall short of controlling the entire sword path. Even so, they are already powerful existences that shake the Great Xia Dynasty, and are even comparable to Tianxian as scattered immortals. If one truly masters a sword path, then they can be considered a formidable figure in the three realms.

  "My qualifications are higher than those of the Jihua Xianren, and I have also obtained the divine ability 'Plucking Star Hand'... my starting point is much higher." Ji Ning thought to himself, "And with the help of the Water Mansion... under these conditions, if I still can't become a Sword Immortal who controls the sword path, then it would only be because of my own incompetence."

  Ji Ning was majestic and heroic.

  Going north?

  Jiuhua Fairy?

  I must become a stronger sword immortal, even the strongest sword immortal in the entire Daxia Dynasty! And one day, I will become a renowned sword immortal in all three realms!

  "A nine-story tower, built on accumulated earth. A thousand-mile journey, starts from under your feet. The road, still needs to be walked step by step." Ji Ning immediately walked into the thatched hut and directly moved out a stack of books, which were "Star Volume One", "Star Volume Two"…

  Put this stack of books directly on the stone table outside the thatched hut, and Ji Ning also sat on the stone bench.

  Turning over page one, Ji Ning began to read aloud.

  "Today, Changlai came to see me and asked for my help..." Ji Ning read on, the sound of each word was ordinary, but when these sounds were linked together, it became the most subtle 'Taoist tone... Naturally guiding Ji Ning's heart into a deeper and more profound state of enlightenment...

  Ji Ning gazed up at a star in the distant sky with a profound look in her eyes.

  Sigh.

  It's windy.

  A gentle breeze began to blow around, Ji Ning stood up and took a step forward, his entire body became one with the wind, merging directly into it. It was as if he had transformed into a large Peng bird spreading its wings, flying swiftly through the howling wind, disappearing in an instant like magic, only to reappear elsewhere amidst the gusts.

  This is the real Wind Wing Escape Technique.

  "The Way of the Gale." Huang Mao Da Xiong nodded slightly, "Another path, reached the realm of the Way. It seems that in these four years, Ji Ning has made no small progress."

  Four years of accumulation and reflection will naturally erupt when triggered by Xingchen Temple.

  When Ji Ning was reciting the Star Volume in the Water Temple's Starry Sky Hall and comprehending the Way, in the distant An Yang City.

  Black and White Academy

  "I and Ji Ning completed the Yulong Guard mission, and Ji Ning returned to his hometown of Yan Mountain. I went to Yan Mountain... but it didn't help me much in understanding the Way of Puppets either, so I came back." Mu Zixiao said with a smile, across from him sat a woman wearing a sky-blue Daoist robe, Jiu Lian.

  Jiulian Shijie smiled and nodded: "The two junior brothers are indeed formidable, they have already become Yinglong Guards in such a short time, I still haven't become a Yinglong Guard until now."

  "Shi Jie has now reached the Wan Xiang realm, I suppose becoming a Dragon Guard is imminent." Mu Zi Shuo said.

  "No rush, wait until I'm a bit stronger, then join the Dragon Guard, it's not too late." Jiulian Shijie hesitated for a moment and asked, "By the way, did you know that Jining Shixiong has returned to his hometown of Yanshan, where exactly did he go in Yanshan?"

  "Muzi Shao said: 'Yan Mountain Winged Snake Lake! Master brother said that he will live there in the future!'"

  "Oh, Lake of the Winged Serpent!"

  Jiulian Shijie nodded slightly, silently memorizing the name, and then smiled as she stood up, "I won't disturb my junior brother anymore, I'll go back first."

  Jiù jiù jiǔ lián biàn tà zhe yī duǒ xuě bái lián huā fǎ bǎo, zhí jiē téng kōng ér qǐ, fēi xiàng yuǎn chù gāo kōng.

  The nine lotus eyes flying in the high sky had a hint of a smile: "Yan Mountain Winged Snake Lake? Master also said that I have been in the sect for long enough, it's time to go out and gain more experience, hmm, then let's go to Yan Mountain Winged Snake Lake first."

  Wait until the next day.

  Jiulian and her fellow apprentice left the Black and White Academy, going out to make a name for themselves. The first place they went to was Yanshan Winged Snake Lake.
