Chapter 199: Treasure

Wang Yuanfeng was stunned for a moment before he reached out to touch his neck. Seeing the bloodstains on his hand, his expression became even more grim.

He sheathed his sword and clasped his hands towards Gao Xian, with a hint of bitterness in his voice. "What a marvelous technique, Spring Breeze and Rain. I've been practicing it for two hundred years and yet I still got it wrong! Thank you for your guidance!"

Gao Xian politely replied, "I've also learned a lot from Senior Wang. Let's learn from each other and make progress together."

Wang Yuanfeng's lips twitched. Gao Xian's words sounded strange, as if they were teasing and sincere at the same time. He didn't know how to respond.

At this moment, he didn't have the mood to respond to Gao Xian. He silently descended from the Immortal Flying Platform.

Wang Yuanfeng looked ashamed as he said to Li Chengfeng, "Master, I lost."

Li Chengfeng's expression was complex. If Li Feihuang had lost, it could be attributed to lack of experience and insufficient swordsmanship.

But Wang Yuanfeng had clearly lost to the opponent's sword, and he had lost to the Clear Breeze Sword Technique that he was best at.

The problem was that Gao Xian's cultivation level was far inferior to his own, and yet he won by relying on superior swordsmanship.

This was truly infuriating!

Li Chengfeng didn't know how to comfort Wang Yuanfeng. After thinking for a moment, he said, "This person has extraordinary talent. He actually comprehended the essence of the Clear Breeze Sword Technique during the battle. It's truly unexpected..."

Wang Yuanfeng forced a bitter smile. He also didn't understand this.

Initially, Gao Xian's swordsmanship was clearly a bit inferior to his own, and he could only constantly dodge and evade.

After hundreds of rounds of battle, Gao Xian actually learned the essence of the Clear Breeze Sword Technique from him, and even surpassed it with new innovations.

This Spring Breeze and Rain technique was truly elusive, far stronger than his use of the Five Thunder Gang Qi to unleash a dense thunderstorm.

The continuous sword light transformed into an invisible sword, silently breaking through his protective Gang Qi and slashing at his neck.

If Gao Xian hadn't shown mercy, he would have lost his head.

Such extraordinary talent in swordsmanship was truly superior to him by an unknown number.

After this battle, Gao Xian's swordsmanship had already become unique, displaying the demeanor of a grandmaster. There was nothing to say about his defeat.

Li Chengfeng deeply looked at Gao Xian on the Immortal Flying Platform, and couldn't help but sigh. If this kid were his disciple, how great would that be!

Unfortunately, Yun Taihao was a ruthless and venomous person. There was no way he would let him have Gao Xian.

Li Chengfeng said to Yun Taihao, "Master Yun, you have won this time in terms of the competition."

Yun Taihao clasped his hands and replied, "It's just a stroke of luck."

Before the four sect masters made a solemn oath and agreement, Li Chengfeng had thought he would win for sure. He never expected to lose to the Yun Clan.

This time, he regrets it, but he can't go back on his word.

Chi Yan Zong Huo Ye and Shao Yang Zong Xu Cheng are also dissatisfied with this result.

The weakest Lian Yun Zong becomes the leader, who can accept that?

However, Huo Ye and Xu Cheng think this result is not bad. Lian Yun Zong's lack of strength means they won't casually use the name of the alliance leader to give orders.

Xu Cheng and Li Chengfeng are old friends, but when it comes to the interests of their respective sects, it's a bit too extravagant to talk about feelings.

The four sect masters discuss the matter of forming an alliance, and other cultivators can't intervene or speak.

Their attention is all focused on Gao Xian.

Gao Xian defeated Huo Lingyun, Huo Lianshan, Li Feihuang, and Wang Yuanfeng, demonstrating incredible swordsmanship and spells.

Especially his swordsmanship, which completely overwhelmed Wang Yuanfeng. Among the four sects, he can truly be called invincible in Foundation Building.

Many cultivators were excited to witness Gao Xian's consecutive victories over many strong enemies. This can also be considered as witnessing the birth of a legend, right?

Many cultivators came to get close to Gao Xian, but at least they wanted to make friends and get familiar with him.

After returning, they can also boast to others.

Although Gao Xian doesn't like socializing, he enjoys being praised by others.

Even if their praise is not very skillful, their enthusiasm can make up for these shortcomings.

However, there are not many cultivators who are both enthusiastic and open-minded. After dealing with a few waves of cultivators, Gao Xian's surroundings quickly became quiet.

Yun Qiushui waited until there was no one around before walking over with a smile and said, "Fellow Daoist, this move of yours, Spring Rain, is profound and unpredictable, and it has the spirit to nurture all things. It is truly extraordinary and has reached the realm of transformation..."

"Fellow Daoist, with such talent in swordsmanship, you should consider specializing in swordsmanship in the future..."

Gao Xian waved his hand, "I have always been practicing the Qingfeng Sword Art, but I haven't grasped its essence. Wang Yuanfeng displayed the essence of the sword art, which greatly moved me and reminded me of a poem."

He lightly recited, "Good rain knows its season, when spring comes it brings life. Sneaking into the night with the wind, silently moistening all things. This move, Spring Rain, encompasses the essence of the sword!"

"Great poem! Great sword!" Yun Qiushui clapped and praised, this tone is his favorite.

Especially the line "silently moistening all things," it perfectly describes Gao Xian's silent and agile sword.

Of course, being able to comprehend the sword intent and display it is mainly due to Gao Xian's accumulation of twenty years, which allowed him to have a breakthrough on the spot.

Facing Yun Qiushui, Gao Xian actually didn't want to brag. He had already accumulated enough in the Qingfeng Sword Art, and this battle allowed him to have a great understanding, instantly reaching the realm of a master in swordsmanship.

This level means that he has completely comprehended the Qingfeng Sword Art and when facing Wang Yuanfeng, he naturally has the upper hand.

It's just that it's too straightforward to say, so he recited this poem according to his preferences.

Gao Xian said again, "I am more scattered in my heart, I am afraid it is difficult to follow the path of sword cultivation."

Yun Qiushui didn't say anything more. This matter can be discussed after Gao Xian enters the Qingyun Sect...

After a brief discussion, the four sect masters also confirmed the alliance ceremony.

Next is the tedious ceremony of worshiping the heavens and ancestors. Under the witness of heaven, earth, and ancestors, the four sect masters formed an alliance and took an oath on the Feixian Platform.

Gao Xian couldn't take the lead in this matter, he could only be an audience below.

Yun Qiushui watched for a while, and then lost interest.

He said to Gao Xian, "I have something to do, the Qingyun Conference will be held in October. It's best for you to arrive two months in advance. Contact me first, we'll discuss the details later..."

After speaking, Yun Qiushui floated away.

When the alliance ceremony of the four sects was completed, Li Chengfeng arranged a banquet, and the cultivators of the four sects drank and enjoyed themselves.

This time, more people came to drink with Gao Xian, and Gao Xian accepted them all, relying on his strong physique.

After the banquet, Gao Xian unexpectedly received a lot of praise. They all said that he was generous, cheerful, humble, and polite.

These are not really outstanding qualities, but when they are placed on the number one Foundation Building expert of the four sects, they are worthy of praise.

The next day, Lianyun Sect, Chiyen Sect, and Shaoyang Sect all boarded the flying ships and left Feixian Island.

Li Feihuang stood under a big tree, watching the Qingmu flying ship enter the depths of the clouds.

Her expression was complicated, and it was unclear what she was thinking.

"What's wrong?"

Li Chengfeng, with white hair and white eyebrows, walked over from behind. He also looked up at the sky and faintly saw a hint of green from the Qingmu flying ship.

Li Chengfeng said, "Still unwilling?"

Li Feihuang nodded, and suddenly asked, "Ancestor, can I win if I use the Feifeng Tianyi Sword?"

"It's difficult." Li Chengfeng shook his head, "Wang Yuanfeng lost even with the Five Thunder Gang Qi Sword. Although your Feifeng Tianyi Sword is strong, you have difficulty controlling it. I'm afraid the Tianyi Sword is still accumulating power, and you will lose."

"This alliance is not important. The key is the Qingyun Conference. Only by obtaining the leader position can you directly become a true disciple of the Shenxiao Hall. You should know that the true teachings of the Qingyun Sect are also divided into different levels..."

Li Chengfeng said with a solemn expression, "Only as a true disciple of the Shenxiao Hall can you obtain more spiritual treasures and secret techniques, and have the opportunity to condense a third-grade Gold Core, and have the opportunity to achieve Nascent Soul!"

Li Feihuang nodded vigorously, "Ancestor, I understand the importance. It's just that I can't swallow this anger in my heart."

"I see that Yun Qiu Shui values Gao Xian highly. With Gao Xian's talent, even Yun Zong, this small pond, cannot contain him. You are likely to encounter Gao Xian at the Qingyun Conference."

Li Chengfeng said, "It's a good thing for you to hide your abilities for now."

"You still have two years to further refine the Chi Feng Tian Yi Sword. If you really meet Gao Xian, give him a surprise!"

Li Fei Huang pursed her lips, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with determination. "In two years, I will definitely be able to refine the Chi Feng Tian Yi Sword, at least enough to communicate with the spirit!"

In the past, she always felt that with the Southern Ming Fire God's radiance, she could sweep away those Foundation Building cultivators. She didn't slack off in her cultivation, but she wasn't too proactive either.

This setback from Gao Xian has also ignited Li Fei Huang's fighting spirit.

Li Chengfeng was pleased with this. The more setbacks, the more courageous, this is the true nature of a cultivator.

He said, "The Qingyun Conference is held once every sixty years and always gathers many geniuses. I heard that Lu Shi Dao from the Liuhe Sect and Zhang Zhengxin from the Xuanzhen Sect are extremely formidable individuals..."

At the same time, Yun Taihao was talking to Gao Xian in the quiet room.

The furnishings in Yun Taihao's quiet room were very exquisite, and there was a faint scent of incense in the room, which had the wonderful effect of calming the mind and dispelling evil.

This was Gao Xian's first time in Yun Taihao's room, and he was quite envious of the environment here.

Don't be fooled by his possession of over three hundred thousand spirit stones, he couldn't afford the furnishings in this room.

When a cultivator reaches the Foundation Building stage, they can barely achieve a comfortable life. At least they can afford to eat elixirs, and they can obtain cultivation resources through various means.

However, these are just ordinary cultivation resources. To obtain top-grade magic weapons, or even treasures, is far beyond the ability of an ordinary Foundation Building cultivator.

When they reach the Gold Core stage, like Yun Taihao, being the master of a small sect, life becomes very enjoyable.

Basically, they can obtain whatever they want and satisfy various needs. It's not a problem to obtain one or two treasures. Can they even obtain spiritual weapons?

Gao Xian thought of this and glanced at the sword hanging from Yun Taihao's waist. In his opinion, this was probably the best item on him, possibly at the level of a treasure, but still far from a spiritual weapon!

Yun Taihao noticed Gao Xian's gaze and thought that Gao Xian was envious of his sword. He felt a bit proud in his heart.

This kid may have high talent, but he is ultimately a wandering cultivator. He has no accumulation at all.

Yun Taihao calmly said, "Gao Xian, as I said before, if you get first place, I will allow you to participate in the Qingyun Conference. In addition, I will give you a treasure."

"I keep my word. You just go to the Qingyun Conference, and if you need help, you can come to me. I still have some connections in the Qingyun Sect."

As he spoke, Yun Taihao took out a small item from his sleeve and handed it to Gao Xian. "This is the treasure for you. If I'm not mistaken, this item suits you very well..."

When Gao Xian saw that thing, his eyes instantly lit up!

(Everyone is amazing, we've made it to the top 100~ Bowing to everyone~ I actually wanted to update more, to be honest, I wrote until four in the morning the day before yesterday, my head was buzzing, and I felt like my blood vessels were going to burst~ I'll stabilize the updates first~)
