Hidden Corners

Autumn leaves are flying, and the ground is covered with withered yellow.

Behind the attic where Kui Ling lives, there is a small courtyard surrounded by big trees.

On the branch of a tree in the courtyard, a huge jade-like python was puffing clouds and mist toward the sky with a single horn on its head.

Its name is Minmin, and it is a powerful spiritual beast raised by Taoist Kui Ling.

And in the open space in the courtyard on the side of the giant python that was more than ten meters long, there was a girl with a pair of ponytails and a boy with half antlers, standing together and whispering something.

The girl is wearing a slim green dress with lotus patterns embellished on the corners. Because science and technology has not developed in this place, many light industrial products do not exist, so the patterns are mostly hand-painted and sewn. You can feel a sense of it from a distance. Rough and asymmetrical beauty.

The girl is none other than Yun Chen, a direct disciple of Taoist Kuiling.

"My Faceless Sword Sect belongs to Panguang. It is one of the four major sects today. It is powerful and has extraordinary potential. It was also the sect that once produced a peerless strong man like the ancestor Chi Yuan Thousand Faces. Therefore, the sect's skills are The Qiyi Holy Spirit Technique and the Faceless Sword Technique can be said to be the top techniques that can directly lead to the great road."

Yunchen is bragging now.

Although the Thousand-faced Ancestor Chiyuan is only a legendary figure that exists in records, it does not prevent her from bringing it out to bring peace of mind.

"It's amazing!" Li Chengyi showed a look of shock and admiration at the right time.

"Well, our ancestor opened the sky with one palm, destroyed the earth with one palm, opened up the world, left a foundation and then left through the sky. Now, our disciples' lifelong goal is to recreate the power of the ancestor. Legend has it that as long as you use the sword Sect the supreme tome, the Thousand-faced Sword Canon, and practice to the highest level, then you can transform into the Great Dao and regain the divine power of your ancestors."

She paused.

"What I want to teach you now is the most basic technique in our sword sect, the Faceless Sword Jue!"

"There is also the Seven Mind Holy Spirit Technique. Because it is difficult to practice and requires certain intensity of consciousness, I will wait until you grow up before I teach it to you." Yun Chen said seriously.

"Don't underestimate the Faceless Sword Technique. This is a top-notch sword technique created specifically with the Holy Spirit Kung Fu. It can amplify the power of the Holy Spirit Kung Fu dozens of times! If you practice to the extreme, you can activate the vitality of the outer sea with just the sword technique. Pass the three levels and step into the realm of Yuanyin."

Yuan Yin?

Li Chengyi instantly thought of the engraving.

"Senior sister, what is this outer sea?" he asked quickly.

"The outer sea is the mysterious sea, which is untouchable and inaudible. There are endless voids flowing there. Only when we enter a certain state can we truly come into contact." Yun Chen briefly introduced.

"It's too early for you to be exposed to this. Come on, first set up the footwork of the swordsmanship. A tall building rises from the ground. The lowest foundation is the core and the most important."

As she spoke, she first gave Li Chengyi a posture with his legs slightly bent and his center of gravity lowered, similar to a squatting posture.

"Come, do it with me."

Li Chengyi has a terrifying physical fitness and is also a top martial arts master in the Dragon Realm. Naturally, his control of the body is unparalleled. This most basic step is naturally simple and easy.

Just by looking at it, you can understand where the key points are.

He immediately assumed the same posture.

"Yes, very good, very standard." Yun Chen took a look at his appearance and walked around to make sure there was nothing wrong with him.

I immediately felt happy. Now it seems that this junior brother’s qualifications are pretty good.

"First stand like this for an hour. This is to stabilize the center of gravity and allow the body to adapt to such a power-generating posture."

"Yes." Li Chengyi responded seriously.

Seeing that his posture was standard, Yunchen didn't say much and simply started chatting with him.

Traveling all over the world, we chatted from the sword sect to the outside world, from monsters and spiritual beasts to other sects.

From her, Li Chengyi learned that this place, this place called Panguang, has a huge area, and no one has explored its boundaries clearly so far.

The Faceless Sword Sect governs a huge territory of tens of millions of miles nearby. In this territory, dynasties in the secular world rise and fall, and are constantly replaced. The mortal sword sects of life and death never interfere. Most of what they need for practice is obtained from inaccessible desperate situations, and higher-level ones are obtained from the outer sea, and ordinary people. The relationship is minimal. That is, buying some daily gadgets on weekdays.

From Yun Chen, Li Chengyi gradually learned that the strong people here were completely out of touch with the world.

The disciples within the sect are not limited to human races, but also monsters and spiritual beasts. Only a very small number of extremely talented people among humans are qualified to face the choice.

Should we abandon everything in the world and pursue spiritual practice, or should we indulge in the world of mortals and continue to enjoy the mundane world.

From the moment you make your choice, your future path is doomed.

"Then there are no people from the sect who go to the world to cause trouble to all sentient beings?" Li Chengyi couldn't help but ask.

"Disaster? Why disaster?" Yun Chen blinked, "After you have achieved success in cultivating Taoism, you will see that ordinary people are dirty, their bodies are unclean, they have countless microscopic insects, and they are extremely fragile. If you are not careful, even breathing out can cause death. .Who would be so bored that he would harm a bunch of little ants when he has nothing to do?"

she sighed.

"When you achieve success in cultivation, you will know that the gap between us and mortals may be greater than the gap between ants and humans. At least ants will not have their flesh and bones blown away by someone's breath."

Li Chengyi was stunned for a while.

"Then I will."

"You have a good physique. Although you have mixed blood, the strange thing is that the mixed blood blends into one body and is relatively pure. Your physique is naturally much stronger than that of ordinary people. Thank you to your fathers, otherwise..." Yun Chen shook his head.

She had long discovered Li Chengyi's abnormal physique. To be precise, it was this unusually strong physique that could meet the initial requirements for joining the Faceless Sword Sect.

Anyone who is not born with a different species and has a strong bloodline will have a hard time surviving here.

"Let's talk about you. If you were in the mortal world, ordinary weapons wouldn't even be able to break through your defense." Yun Chen said with a smile.

Hearing this, Li Chengyi felt a chill in his heart.

He originally thought that his dozens of tons of weight had been reduced a lot by using his skills and blood energy, and he could hide it perfectly.

Who would have thought that people here would have noticed it a long time ago.

But then I thought about it, if it weren't for such a powerful sect, it would be impossible to breed a monster as terrifying as the Faceless Scholar.

"Okay, after talking about this, let's talk about this. Our sword sect is in pure vitality, and the concentration of vitality inside is extremely high. In the eyes of mortals, this place is just a piece of hard white rocks. But in fact, these white rocks are what we absorb. The natural outer sea vitality that is swallowed up." Yun Chen explained.

"It's just because mortals are too fragile and touch the vitality and think they are rocks, that's why they have this perception. But because our bodies are extremely strong, far beyond the vitality, in our eyes, they are qi."

Li Chengyi suddenly realized.

This place is a bit scary

How high does the density of the body have to be before the rock-like vitality can be regarded as a thin gas?

"Enough chatting, let's talk about the light of hope for our sword sect now." Yun Chen didn't feel sleepy anymore when he talked about this.

The boredom of talking and explaining to Li Chengyi suddenly disappeared.

"The real master of our sect adopted a born spiritual fetus many years ago. He brought it back from the outer sea, and he is now the main lineage's junior brother Huo Qingkong."

"Junior Brother Qingkong is born with a sword. He can master any sword technique and related skills at a glance. One day is equivalent to a hundred days of practice for ordinary people. His talent is so high that no one can match it. Moreover, Junior Brother Qingkong is also gentle in temperament, no matter who he is. Whenever I ask for advice, I can explain it calmly and patiently. I respect my teachers and care for my juniors. I am good-looking and have a nice voice."

As he spoke, Yunchen showed natural appreciation in his eyes.

Li Chengyi was speechless at the side, and he knew from his eyes that Senior Sister Yunchen had already become the little crush of Huo Qingkong over there.

After practicing basic skills all morning, Li Chengyi was practicing on the surface, but in fact he was refining his blood and restoring his physical condition.

There are no changes or abnormalities in the state of the five seals, but the lack of change is actually the biggest change.

Because before the Five Seals, everyone will be stuck by infinite barriers. No matter how much strength you accumulate, you will not be able to sublimate and transform, and you will not be able to break through the Five Seals.

Being able to open up new extreme journeys is the greatest benefit of the Five Seals.

After morning training, there was lunch, a large piece of unknown animal meat per person, and a large green vegetable half as tall as a person.

No cooking, just holding it and chewing it.

“Because different bloodlines and different races have different habits, I basically handle the ingredients freely by myself.

You are still young, so I helped you bake it first, remove all kinds of bugs inside, and wash it with mountain spring water. "Yun Chen placed the huge green vegetable, which was two heads taller than Li Chengyi, on his wooden dining table with a bang.

The piece of meat was also on the side, as big as Li Chengyi's head.

"Eat." Yun Chen smiled.

"." Li Chengyi was speechless and turned to see how she was eating.

Because Yun Chen was sitting next to him at this time, and the same meat and vegetables were also placed on the table.

On the brown wooden table, the jade-like green vegetables were still dripping with water, and the pieces of meat were much larger than what Li Chengyi had here, three times the size.

As soon as Yun Chen saw his face, his whole head suddenly turned into a one-horned monster with a yellow mane.

laugh!

She opened her mouth, and the mouth that could only fit her fist suddenly expanded to more than two meters wide.

Then, take a sip forward.

Pfft.

The entire table, together with the meat and vegetables on it, disappeared in an instant and fell into her mouth.

"Eat?" Yun Chen narrowed his mouth, regained his pretty face, and looked at Li Chengyi with a puzzled look on his face.

"." Li Chengyi originally thought that he might behave a little weird, but now it seems that this senior sister is not simple either.

He sighed in his heart and immediately picked up the piece of meat and took a big bite.

To his surprise, the meat was extremely tender and delicious, and tasted great.

Had a meal.

Yun Chen took him to the central Faceless Dojo, where all the disciples gathered to practice swordsmanship.

Newcomers like him must first go and observe basic swordsmanship and learn basic skills such as holding a sword and using force, and then they can practice faceless sword fighting.

And Li Chengyi also spent more than half a month in such a transitional time.

He has not wasted his time in the past half month.

After completing the breakthrough of the five seals, he continued to go further without stopping and began to condense the three true seals of the three Yin Canon skills.

The marrow of the true spirit is enough, and the remaining problem is the fusion of the spirit of the true seal. Although there is no spirit of the true seal here, the spirit of the true seal is actually created artificially.

As long as enough energy is accumulated and enough blood energy is converted into cultivation, after understanding the existence form of the spirit of the true seal, one can naturally rely on the Yin Code to break through and sublimate and condense the seal.

After half a month of practice, Li Chengyi had more doubts about the Faceless Sword Sect.

While practicing hard and naturally approaching the Six Seals, he also came into contact with the current number one genius who taught all his disciples, Senior Brother Huo Qingkong.
