Under Tianshan Mountain, the people from the eight major sects in Jingzhou have all arrived.

This time, Jingzhou itself has 3,620 qualification tokens, which means that there are 3,620 disciples participating in this trial. Including the elders, masters and Yuanying ancestors of each sect, there are a total of 5,000 to 6,000 people.

The people from the four states led by Xuzhou finally arrived at the foot of Tianshan Mountain.

"Haha, fellow Daoist Wang, long time no see!"

An old man in white said to Wang Tianhua with a smile on his face.

"Brother Tianyu is still as powerful as before! I wonder if Brother Tianfeng is well?"

Wang Tianhua said as a representative of the four states.

"Senior Brother Tianfeng has been in seclusion recently and is at a critical point. I hope you can understand that he was unable to be present this time!"

The old man in white said politely.

Wang Tianhua's strength is at the peak of the fourth level of the Yuanying stage. In the entire Jingzhou, only Jian Tianfeng has reached the fifth level of the Yuanying stage. The rest of the people are not Wang Tianhua's opponents, so the old man in white is still very respectful to Wang Tianhua.

The old man in white is one of the three elders of Tianjian Sect, the leader of the eight major sects in Jingzhou. Jian Tianyu, whose strength is only lower than Jian Tianfeng, has already reached the fourth level of the Nascent Soul Stage, but has not yet reached the peak, which is slightly inferior to Wang Tianhua.

"Fellow Daoists have come from afar, please go to the guest room that has been prepared and rest for a day. This Tianshan Sword Pool Trial is a bit special and will open tomorrow!"

An old man in a golden robe next to the old man in white said.

The old man in the golden robe is Jian Tianlei, the third of the three elders of Tianjian, and his strength has also reached the peak of the third level of the Nascent Soul Stage.

"Oh? That's good!"

Wang Tianhua was slightly stunned, turned his head and said to the people of the four states: "Everyone has heard it, go to the guest room to rest first, the Tianshan Sword Pool will open tomorrow!"

"Something strange!"

Chu Yan had some doubts in his heart. According to Shui Tianyu, today should be the day when the Tianshan Sword Pool opens. In the past, the time was very fixed. Could there be any accidents this time?

Without giving Chu Yan time to think about it, the people from the four states were taken to their assigned houses by the disciples of Jingzhou to stay temporarily.

There are many houses built around Tianshan Mountain. With the supreme magic power of those Yuanying stage masters, this is not a difficult task!

...

In the house, Chu Yan sat cross-legged and practiced the skills!

To have the current achievements, opportunities are one aspect, and his own efforts are also indispensable. Chu Yan will not waste a single moment of time.

"Why am I a little absent-minded!"

Suddenly Chu Yan opened his eyes and said to himself.

Restless mind, this is something Chu Yan has never experienced when practicing, but today he can hardly concentrate.

"Go out for a walk!"

If you are not in the right state of practice, it is easy to go crazy if you practice hard. Chu Yan will not do this, so he simply goes out for a walk.

Chu Yan strolled between the houses. The lights in almost every house were still on. It was obvious that none of these talented young people were lazy.

After walking through a piece of house, Chu Yan unconsciously walked towards the foot of Tianshan Mountain!

The foot of Tianshan Mountain is surrounded by a hundred-meter-high forest!

"Oh? Is this the Sword Trial Forest?"

Chu Yan sighed as he looked at the three simple words "Sword Trial Forest" on a huge stone tablet standing in front of the dense forest.

This dense forest is called the Sword Trial Forest. Only cultivators with sword skills that have reached a certain level can pass through it smoothly. Various arrays for honing sword skills have been set up by the cultivators of the eight sects of Jingzhou. It can be said that this is the best place for Jingzhou to hone disciples.

This is also the first level of the Tianshan Sword Pool Trial. Only by passing the Sword Trial Forest can you be qualified to climb Tianshan Mountain.

Although some disciples have obtained the black iron token, their sword skills are not outstanding. It is difficult for them to pass the Sword Trial Forest within the specified time. Unfortunately, they have lost the opportunity to climb Tianshan Mountain.

A mountain protection array was set up on Tianshan Mountain by the sword cultivators who had achieved great success in ancient times. This array will only be opened once every twenty years, and at least eight Yuanying stage cultivators must attack at the same time to open it.

After the start, only the younger generation, that is, cultivators under the age of thirty, can enter. If you are over thirty and still enter rashly, you will be shaken into a blood mist by a strange formation!

It can be said that this Tianshan Sword Pool is set up to cultivate the younger generation. Otherwise, if so many flying swords on Tianshan can be opened at any time and anyone can enter, then the flying swords on that mountain would have been plundered long ago.

However, there is no such rule in the Sword Trial Forest. It is open to any young disciple at any time.

"Since it is the Sword Trial Forest, then use the sword!"

Chu Yan smiled faintly, the storage bag on his waist flashed, and the Ice Profound Sword flew out with a trace of cold air.

Among the four five-element flying swords that have been refined, Chu Yan's favorite is the Ice Profound Sword. Although the power of the Ice Profound Sword is not much different from the other three flying swords, because of his main ice spiritual power, Chu Yan has a sense of mind penetration every time he uses the Ice Profound Sword.

Chu Yan held the sword in his right hand and stepped into the Sword Trial Forest.

"Swoosh!"

More than ten steel nails suddenly flew out from the left!

"Ding ding!"

Chu Yan did not dodge. Since this sword-testing forest was used to practice swordsmanship, he naturally had to use a sword to resist. The Ice Mystic Sword formed a trajectory, which was not a straight line, but this trajectory cleverly cut the more than ten steel nails flying in half.

"Interesting!"

Chu Yan took a step and suddenly felt his feet sink slightly. Suddenly, a huge sharp wooden thorn stabbed towards him from the front.

"Swoosh, swoosh!"

Chu Yan jumped up, reaching a height of five feet. The Ice Xuan Sword in his hand turned into sword shadows one after another. The huge wooden thorn was covered with a layer of ice in an instant, and turned into powder the next moment.

"No, since we are practicing swordsmanship, we can't rely on the cold power in this Ice Xuan Sword and our own ice spiritual power!"

Chu Yan thought, and restrained all the cold energy in the Ice Xuan Sword, but the spiritual power in his body did not mobilize at all. The light on the Ice Xuan Sword dimmed, the cold air completely disappeared, and it turned into an ordinary sword. Sharp sword!

Since the Ghost Tomb Trial, after inheriting the will of Dao Hen, flying swords have become one of Chu Yan's main means. Before, Chu Yan used flying swords to simply assassinate with the help of spiritual thoughts, without any sword moves at all.

After possessing four five-element flying swords, Chu Yan developed the four major sword moves, as well as the ice and fire fencing technique, and the four-element sword formation taught to Chu Yan by Lingding.

However, in Chu Yan's opinion, these are not enough. His sword skills are still very lacking, and he has not yet mastered the essentials of using a sword at close range. It is said that a master of swordsmanship can kill his opponent in close combat with a flying sword, shaking hands with him. , spiritual thoughts drive flying swords, and take people's heads thousands of miles away, these Chu Yan is far from reaching.

"It's so dangerous when you first enter. If a cultivator under the foundation-building stage comes here, there will be no way to survive!"

Chu Yan held the Ice Xuan Sword and walked forward step by step without using the True Spirit Nine Flashes.

…

Along the way, whether there were traps, sneak attacks by monsters, or formations blocking them, Chu Yan resolved them one by one.

Moreover, Chu Yan did not use any spiritual power, but spread his spiritual thoughts around his body. Even the slightest disturbance could not escape Chu Yan's spiritual thoughts. It was precisely because of this, coupled with Chu Yan's strong arm strength. , only with the might of the sword can there be no hindrance at all along the way.

"My understanding of close-quarters swordsmanship has deepened further!"

Although Chu Yan had only traveled a few hundred meters, he had already experienced dozens of obstacles. Through the close combat, Chu Yan only felt that his mind had a sense of clarity, and he completely enjoyed the comprehension of this kind of swordsmanship. middle.

"Turn around and kill!"

Chu Yan jumped up, and the Ice Xuan Sword in his hand suddenly bent half a minute. The next moment, it suddenly became straight, and then the force of the bend suddenly hit the head of a black giant bear that was two people tall.

"puff!"

This sword, which had no spiritual power at all, actually pierced the head of the giant bear in front of him, which was comparable to the third level of foundation building, and bright red blood burst out!

The most important thing is that the power Chu Yan used in this attack was only at the foundation level.

"boom!"

The huge black bear, which was two people tall, fell to the ground without any breath.

"This move of using strength to move the sword is really good. It seems that what the predecessors said is indeed correct. Only the sword moves that are understood in battle are the strongest!"

Chu Yan felt comfortable in his heart. His muscles were feeling a little warm as he continued to use his sword skills to fight. This feeling was very comfortable.

"This sword move should also be given a name, the power of bending, the power of looping, bending like the moon, the Sky and Moon Sword of Death! Haha, not bad!"

Chu Yan has a calm mind, but he also has a young side. He was in a good mood and laughed.

"What a Tianyue Shang Huan Sword, but this word "Shang", my fellow Taoist must have something on his mind!"

A faint word sounded in Chu Yan's ears.

"My fellow Taoist is really good at hiding himself, but now it's time to show up!"

Chu Yan said lightly and pointed the Bingxuan Sword to the left in his hand.

"Haha, it's a friendly way. I use my voice transmission on you, and you can find my location so easily. It's really amazing!"

A figure in black clothes appeared in an instant. If it weren't for the soft moonlight, it would be difficult to see this figure.

This person walked over without restraint, and what he saw was a young man with a delicate face. He was only about twenty years old. His body was covered with small wounds, his clothes were covered with dust, and he looked a little embarrassed.

"Yizhou, Chu Yan!"

Chu Yan said lightly when he saw the visitor.
