  Chapter 26: The Atmosphere of a Strong Person

  One sword flashes out, shattering the air into a blade!

  Lin Yi's foot stepped on the waves, like a small boat drifting on the lake surface, moving with the wind, the sword in his hand cut through the lake surface, stirring up layers of ripples.

  One sword, three cheers.

  Three waves of ripples shook out at the same time, and the water below was like a tsunami, forming a terrifying whirlpool. The unfortunate fish beside it were swept in and quickly disintegrated by the sword energy, a pitiful sight to behold.

  Frightening swordsmanship!

  Lin Yi suddenly exerted himself and inserted the entire sword into the lake bottom, then chopped it open again. With the power of the whirlpool, he stirred up the water at the lake bottom.

  Water can also be a blade.

  Everyone knows that the faster you move in water, the greater the resistance you encounter. Lin Yi's sword can be extremely fast, but in the water, it is greatly discounted and much slower.

  Whoosh! Lin Yi's sword, combined with the body technique of Hua Feng Wuying, increased its speed by another level, advancing against the current, stirring up waves over two meters high, while the whirlpool had formed a terrifying water cave, devouring everything.

  Lin Yi's sword fell right in the center of the whirlpool.

  If I were to go with the flow, wouldn't my sword be even faster, just like the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, fast when following, slow when opposing!

  Lin Yi's eyes lit up, and the sword blade moved at the same time. Along with the whirlpool, it fiercely slashed upwards. The sword entered the water cave without using any force, but was driven by the rapid current, rotating wildly.

  Lin Yi suddenly unleashed his explosive power, the sword blade's speed instantly increased tenfold, surpassing the speed of the water flow, and then triggered an even stronger force, suddenly exploding.

  The speed was too terrifying, the whirlpool was like an exploding water bottle, the waves were crashing, and Lin Yi's body was blown away.

  However, this sword finally swung out of the four cries, like four flashes of lightning.

  Its power was truly terrifying. With this sword, Lin Yi believed that killing a cultivator at the fourth level of the Refining Realm would be done in an instant. The sword intent was too strong!

  Lin Yi swiftly sprang up, carrying a long sword on his back, and dashed towards the distant dense forest, moving at an incredible speed, yet making almost no sound.

  Fēng Yǐng Bù, this technique was originally prepared for assassins. Not only is it fast and silent, but it can also perfectly conceal one's aura. In an instant, it can be used to silently kill the opponent, pursuing a fatal blow in one strike. When combined with Lin Yi's swordsmanship, which has the power of four resonant sounds, it is truly not something that ordinary warriors can withstand.

  "What a heavy sword aura!" Lin Yi's spiritual power was released, and he felt the faint fluctuations of the spiritual energy. These fluctuations came from some kind of sword path.

  At least a hundred meters away, he actually relied on his sword intent to directly cause a fluctuation in the spiritual energy. This person is absolutely a strong one!

  Lin Yi was like a fleeting shadow, swiftly darting through the dense forest, silent and soundless. In no time, he had slipped away to a distance of over 100 meters, but ahead of him lay a vast expanse of open space.

  This vast place was originally a dense forest, but now it has become a desolate land. The trees were cut open by the sword energy and flew away without a trace. There are also many bloody corpses, which should be the unlucky beasts that were killed here.

  "Awesome!" Lin Yi hid on a tree in the distance, and indeed saw an old man practicing sword here. The old man wore a green robe, with a silver sword in his hand, swinging out intersecting sword energy, like bursting arrows, destroying everything around him.

  This power is unknown how many times stronger than Lin Yi's, in comparison, Lin Yi's sword moves are simply child's play.

  "What is the momentum of a sword?" The old man seemed somewhat annoyed, his white hair and silver whiskers fluttering like grass, his long beard tangled in a strand. "I have meditated for ten years, what is the momentum of a sword!"

  The old man looked up at the sky and let out a long whistle, his hand holding the sword swung fiercely, blinking his eyes was more than twenty swords in motion. The surrounding area was filled with flashing sword lights, like fireflies dancing in the air, but these fireflies had an astonishing destructive power, lightly touching a huge boulder and directly shattering it into pieces.

  "A master of the aura realm!" Lin Yi took a deep breath, this mysterious old man was actually a strong practitioner of the aura realm, and he was probably no weaker than Chen Shuangshuang!

  "Who?" The old man suddenly let out a loud shout, his voice shaking the earth. It turned out that Lin Yi's surprise was because he had accidentally revealed his breath.

  A sword light has already slashed over, dozens of meters away, directly cutting off the thick waist-sized tree where Lin Yi is located, with a terrifying power!

  Lin Yi jumped down, not intending to escape at all. In front of a strong Qi cultivator like him, it was impossible to escape anyway. "I am Lin Yi, an outer disciple of the Tian Xuan Sect. I came here to hunt demonic beasts and accidentally intruded on your cultivation grounds. Please forgive me, senior!"

  Lin Yi remained calm and composed, saying that this old man was obviously also a member of the Tianxuan Sect. Although his identity was unclear, he wouldn't kill Lin Yi just because she had stumbled upon him by mistake.

  As expected, the old man only furrowed his brow, "Leave now, and never trespass on this land again. Otherwise, you will be killed without pardon!"

  Although the Tianxuan Sect strictly forbids disciples from killing each other, if an elder wants to kill a outer sect disciple, it's clear that no one will intervene, because this is a gap in status and power.

  Lin Yi, however, did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked up and said, "Senior, I just saw that you were a bit troubled. Actually, understanding the sword path is a matter of following one's heart. If one tries too hard to grasp it but can't get it, they should let go of their obsession and only then can they truly understand!"

  The old man chuckled and glanced at Lin Yi, "This kid understands the great principles, but it's easy to say yet hard to do. I've been contemplating this sword move for ten years, but in the end, I still haven't grasped it. How difficult! How difficult!"

  "Actually, the swordsmanship I saw earlier is only slightly inferior to yours, and enlightenment is just a matter of time!" Lin Yi said seriously. Although the old man had only practiced a few simple moves earlier, Lin Yi had seen some underlying principles, and with his insight, he naturally understood it more clearly than the old man.

  The old man chuckled and said, "You've got a big mouth, but I'll tell you what I hate the most - people who talk big but do nothing!"

  "If so, I can point out where the predecessor's sword path is missing?" Lin Yi smiled slightly.

  The old man's face changed, and with a fierce wave of his hand, a powerful gust of energy shot towards Lin Yi, sending him flying over ten meters. The old man shouted angrily: "You dare to tease me, you reckless junior! If there's a next time, don't blame me for crippling you, get out!"

  The old man was really angry, his temper wasn't good to begin with, and today he was especially irritable. And then this sudden junior appeared, a mere child in the second stage of Qi Refining, actually saying they wanted to instruct him on swordsmanship! Wasn't this just deliberately teasing him?

  Lin Yi suppressed the turmoil in his body, a flash of anger flickering in his eyes. He had been kind enough to help, but this old man was indiscriminate, not distinguishing between good and evil. It's really hard to be a good person! In his past life, countless main gods lined up, waiting only for Lin Yi to give them some guidance.

  "Haha! With such a narrow mind, wanting to achieve the great way of the sword is indeed difficult!" Lin Yi said with a bitter smile.

  The old man's face changed, and a flash of murderous intent flickered in his eyes. "How dare you! Don't think that just because you're a disciple of our sect, I won't dare to kill you, you reckless fool!"

  "The true meaning of the way of the sword is not the sword itself, nor any particular sword technique or skill, but rather the spirit!" Lin Yi said without hesitation. "The spirit is formless and shapeless, yet it is the most refined power in heaven and earth. What is called the way of the sword is simply a coordination between the sword and the spirit. Senior has always been fixated on the sword itself, neglecting the most important spirit. Even if one's sword skills are practiced to perfection, they will never be able to attain enlightenment!"

  The old man's eyes widened in surprise, he didn't dare to believe it, but his heart felt that there was some truth to it, and it was really contradictory. What a second-grade little girl who has just entered the refining realm said, could it be true?

  The old man hesitated for a moment, but finally put aside his pride and began to practice sword again as Lin Yi had said. As soon as the sword was raised, it brought up a strong sword energy, advancing fiercely!

  "As usual when practicing, feel the spiritual energy around the sword, not the sword itself!" Lin Yi commanded authoritatively.

  The old man did as he was told, and on the blade of the sword, a strange glow began to appear, greatly increasing the old man's confidence.

  Then a strange scene unfolded, where a Lianjing second-grade disciple instructed a strong Qi Jing practitioner in sword practice. How bizarre!
