Soul Devouring Sword Master

The moment he stepped onto the second staircase, Lin Xiao felt like he was spinning and his vision went dark.

When he opened his eyes again, he found that he was in a wilderness.

Looking up, I saw yellow sand, darkness, and a desolate land with no grass growing and no human habitation.

And right in front of Lin Xiao, there was a forest of swords!

Yes, it’s Jianlin!

I saw only a sword of different lengths and sizes, either inserted diagonally or vertically submerged into the ground, with more than half of the sword body exposed.

These exposed swords are stained with rust, as if they have been eroded by the years, revealing a trace of ancient vicissitudes.

The yellow sand flew over and enveloped the forest of swords, adding a bit of desolation and solemnity.

"Could this be the test on the second step?"

Lin Xiao's face condensed slightly as he came to the forest of swords.

This forest of swords is hundreds of feet long and wide, with no end as far as the eye can see. There is a road in the center, just enough for one person to pass through, and ancient swords are inserted on both sides of the road.

Just standing here, you can feel a sharp breath coming towards your face, as if Lin Xiao will be minced immediately if he steps into it.

The next moment, Lin Xiao stepped directly into the sword forest road.

Bang! !

The moment he stepped in, as if being pulled by an invisible force, the entire sword forest trembled violently, making bursts of buzzing sounds that resounded throughout the ground.

Immediately, there seemed to be sword shadows slashing at him quickly, causing Lin Xiao's eyes to suddenly freeze. He quickly pulled out the Spirit-Swallowing Sword and swung it continuously.

when! when! when......

The sound of swords clashing sounded one after another. Lin Xiao held his sword to resist while moving forward.

At first, Lin Xiao could resist these sword shadows, but after walking three feet away, his speed began to slow down, because the further he walked, the greater the speed and power of the sword light, and Lin Xiao gradually felt a little tired.

"Think about it, this sword forest should be a test of my level in swordsmanship. I am now at the entrance level of a great swordsman. I am afraid that I will have to walk another ten feet at most. However, this road is too long and there is no end in sight. I’m afraid even the Sword King may not be able to finish.”

Lin Xiao was thinking while resisting the sword shadows around him.

At the same time, in the main hall, Lin Xiao closed his eyes tightly, his face slightly condensed, and he was waving his long sword in the air quickly.

"No, we can't move forward anymore."

Not long after, Lin Xiao had reached his limit. He was forced back by the sword shadow in front of him and could no longer move forward an inch.

"In this case, I will stop here to resist those sword shadows, and try to move forward again and again. It won't take long, and I will always be able to get through."

After thinking about this, Lin Xiao stopped in place to resist the sword light, and kept trying to break forward. Every time he was forced to retreat, he would always make a little progress, and these little points accumulated more and more, gathering into a tower. I don't know how long it took, Lin Xiao. Xiao finally succeeded in taking a step forward.

Afterwards, it was the same as before, little by little attempts, training and accumulation until I was able to successfully take the next step.

In the process of continuously breaking through step by step, the sword in Lin Xiao's hand became faster and faster. At the back, his hand and the sword seemed to be integrated into one, and only a shadow could be seen moving in the air.

I don't know how long it took, but outside the main hall, Lin Xiao had walked up to the next five steps, while Murong Shi on the other side had walked up to the next seven steps.

In the forest of swords, Lin Xiao had completely entered a strange state. In his eyes, only the shadows of swords around him and the sword in his hand were left, as if there were only swords left on the ground.

At some point, the killing sword soul between his brows also appeared. Bloody light flickered and enveloped his whole body. The sword shadows seemed to have slowed down a lot, and the originally blurry tracks became clear.

Gradually, Lin Xiao caught the trajectory of these sword shadows, and the sword light flashed in his eyes. With the help of the sword soul, he moved faster and faster, and the movements in his hands became faster and faster.

When he reached the back, Lin Xiao no longer knew how far he had gone. There was no end in sight both in front and behind, and he had to constantly resist the sword shadows around him.

This seems to be an endless road, only endless sword shadows, no exit, no hope, just long repetition and suffering.

But even so, Lin Xiao never thought of giving up. The sword cultivator would rather break than bend and move forward indomitably!

"Since there is no end in sight, I will keep walking until the end!"

Lin Xiao shouted loudly, the sword light flashed in his eyes, exuding an extremely sharp aura, and then he took a step forward, and at this moment, suddenly, he opened his eyes.

At the same time, he suddenly found that he had passed the stairs on the second floor.

"Does this pass the test?"

Lin Xiao was a little stunned. He originally thought that the second test would be more difficult than the previous test, but he didn't expect that he would pass it just like that.

In fact, if Lin Xiao is in the forest of swords, he will be trapped in the forest of swords forever because he keeps resisting the shadow of the sword and repeats it without seeing the end. He loses the faith to move forward.

In one thought, everything changes!

It can only be said that Lin Xiao's unshakable belief in swordsmanship supported him in successfully passing the sword forest test. Otherwise, as long as he had even the slightest thought of giving up, he would always stay in the sword forest.

Over time, he will doubt himself more and more, and the anxiety caused by not seeing the end will accumulate more and more. In the end, he is likely to collapse, and will be trapped in the sword forest forever, and the sword heart will collapse.

It seemed that Lin Xiao passed this test easily, just because he believed deeply in his swordsmanship. Nothing could shake him. His swordsmanship was extremely pure and firm.

And if he was in the sword forest, as long as there was a slight hesitation, there would be two completely different results, which could be described as the difference between heaven and hell.

In addition, Lin Xiao was pleasantly surprised to find that he had broken through to the Great Sword Master realm, which must be the result of constantly fighting with the sword shadows in the sword forest.
