The weather was very hot, but the weather was very hot.

Unconsciously, twenty days had passed since Lin Xiao came to the Black Wind Mountains.

It was still dawn, and Lin Xiao had already come out of the cave and came to a forest to practice swordsmanship.

There were only ten days left before the four major colleges began recruiting students. Lin Xiao dared not be negligent or waste a single minute. He had to improve his strength as much as possible so that he could be more confident on the day of recruitment.

The red sun rose slowly, and Lin Xiao stood in the woods.

Bang!

Lin Xiao stepped on the ground, and the spiritual energy in his body surged like a spring. The surrounding trees trembled together, and many leaves fell down with the sound of "rustling".

A sharp light flashed in his eyes, Lin Xiao jumped up, raised his sword and swung out three swords in an instant.

Swish!

Three sword shadows flashed by, and three leaves were directly broken in half.

Cut three leaves with one sword!

Landing smoothly, Lin Xiao waved his hand casually, and the long sword made a sound of sword chanting.

After several days of continuous practice, Lin Xiao's sword skills became more solid, and the speed and power of the sword, as well as the control of the angle, had a qualitative leap compared to before.

Of course, this is inseparable from Bai Yuan's careful teaching, which made Lin Xiao take fewer detours. In addition, Lin Xiao's hard practice and his own talent made such great progress in a short period of time.

It can be said that Lin Xiao is now a qualified sword cultivator.

One day, Lin Xiao sat on a stone, surrounded by the corpses of dozens of monsters, and above the corpses, there were wisps of faint light floating.

These were the fifth-level monsters of the Gathering Spirit Realm, the Bloodthirsty Wolves. Lin Xiao accidentally broke into their territory, and after a bloody battle, this was the scene.

After dozens of days of fighting, Lin Xiao's actual combat experience increased greatly, and his mind became more mature and calm. Now, his face was no longer as childish as before, but full of fortitude.

After a short rest, Lin Xiao summoned the Soul Devouring Sword and devoured all the monster souls.

Just as the Soul Devouring Sword devoured the last wisp of the monster soul, it suddenly shook violently, and the sword body was covered with a layer of white light, emitting bursts of sword sounds.

Lin Xiao tightly grasped the Soul Devouring Sword and quickly asked in his sea of ​​consciousness, "Uncle Bai, Uncle Bai, this Soul Devouring Sword..."

"Haha, don't worry," Bai Yuan's voice came, laughing, "This is a sign that the Soul Devouring Sword is upgrading. These days, it has devoured a lot of souls, which is enough for it to upgrade."

"Just watch carefully from the side. After the upgrade, it will unlock a sword skill."

"Sword skill?" Lin Xiao looked curious and immediately put the Soul Devouring Sword on the ground.

At this moment, the Soul Devouring Sword was shrouded in white light, trembling constantly, and emitting waves of excited sword chants.

Then, wisps of light of various colors swam out of the sword. They were the souls it devoured. These souls hovered over the Soul Devouring Sword, and then turned into a touch of white energy, which was sucked into the Soul Devouring Sword one after another.

After absorbing enough energy, the Soul Devouring Sword suddenly emitted a high-pitched sword sound.

"Buzz!"

Then, the white light on the surface gradually dissipated, the rust slowly peeled off, and finally the Soul Devouring Sword calmed down, with a layer of lustrous luster flowing on the surface.

Lin Xiao walked over, picked up the Soul Devouring Sword, and waved it casually, and a shallow trace of air broke through the air, and the big tree a few meters away was cut off.

"Xuan-level sword, it's really powerful." Lin Xiao couldn't help but exclaimed, and he clearly felt that this Soul Devouring Sword was more spiritual and powerful than before.

At this moment, some more information suddenly appeared in his mind.

Xuan-level sword skills, the sky spirit burst, the control of the spirit on the blade, burst out in an instant, releasing a sharp sword energy, the sword energy is like a rainbow, unstoppable...

Checking the information of this sword skill, Lin Xiao couldn't help but exclaimed, "What a domineering sword skill."

"That's natural, don't look at this as just a Xuan-level sword skill, that was thousands of years ago, put it now, it is also equivalent to a spiritual sword skill." Bai Yuan's voice came.

"Spiritual sword skills!" Lin Xiao's face was even more shocked, and then he was ecstatic. With this spiritual sword skill, his strength would definitely be greatly improved.

"Your foundation is relatively solid, and you should be able to learn this sword skill quickly. However, if you want to practice it to perfection, you still need a long time of practice and comprehension." Bai Yuan said.

Lin Xiao nodded. Through these days of practice, he could also feel that the way of the sword is a long road that requires constant exploration and thinking, and there is no end.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiao immediately devoted himself to practice again.

The progress in the way of the sword is very fast, but the realm is

, Lin Xiao was stuck in the fourth late stage of the Gathering Spirit Realm.

This was mainly because the Gathering Spirit Array, which could only be used ten times, had been used up, and the elixirs on his body had also been consumed. Lin Xiao could only rely on absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to practice.

Although he had the blessing of the Soul Devouring Art, his cultivation speed was several times that of ordinary people, but the heavenly spiritual veins had a great demand for spiritual energy. For a while, Lin Xiao could not break through the realm, and he did not make the same rapid progress as in the past few days.

"It seems that it is time to leave." Lin Xiao said softly. During these days in the Black Wind Mountains, he killed hundreds of monsters, and their bodies were stored in the storage ring. The storage ring was actually the formation ring used by Lin Xiao.

The grade of these monsters is not low, and they should be able to sell a lot of gold coins. With gold coins, you can buy elixirs and speed up the breakthrough.

So, Lin Xiao walked out of the mountains.

Not long after Lin Xiao walked, suddenly, the ground under his feet trembled.

Lin Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then the ground shook more and more, and a loud noise came from behind.

Boom, boom, boom! !

"Is it an earthquake?" Lin Xiao frowned, and at this moment, a fierce breath approached from behind.

This breath... Lin Xiao was shocked, and his brows frowned even deeper. This breath was at least above the eighth level of the Gathering Spirit Realm.

"Howl--" A deafening roar broke through the sky and resounded through the clouds.

"It's a monster!"

Lin Xiao's face changed. A monster that could release such a breath was definitely not something he could deal with. Without hesitation, it was too late to escape, and Lin Xiao immediately got into the nearby bushes.

Not long after, the ground shook more and more violently. Lin Xiao saw a monster running towards this side through the gap between the grass leaves.

As the monster got closer and closer, Lin Xiao also saw its appearance clearly.

This is a flaming war rhino, a ninth-level demon beast in the Gathering Spirit Realm. It is covered with blazing flames, covered with heavy scales, and has a single horn on its head, as sharp as a spear.

Whether it is defense or destructive power, this flaming war rhino is extremely terrifying. In this Black Wind Mountain Range, all demon beasts will stay away from it.

However, what puzzled Lin Xiao was that such a powerful demon beast should only move in the central area, and he was located on the periphery of the mountain range. Logically, the flaming war rhino would not easily leave its territory.

"Howl--" The flaming war rhino howled to the sky and ran quickly. His body was covered with scars, and a trace of fear flashed across his eyes, as if something terrible was following him.

Whoosh--

The sound of breaking wind sounded, and a figure suddenly came from a distance, passing over the head of the flaming war rhino and blocking it.

When he saw the figure, the pupils of the Fiery Rhino shrank suddenly, and he hurriedly stopped, with deep fear in his eyes.

The figure was a young man in a long gown, in his early twenties, with sword-like eyebrows and star-like eyes, a stern face, a long sword on his back, and his eyes were as sharp as a blade.

Seeing that the retreat was blocked, the Fiery Rhino roared, stopped running, and rushed directly to the young man.

The Fiery Rhino lowered his head, exuding an extremely powerful aura. Every time he took a step, the ground would crack. The unicorn on his head cut through the air, flashing a cold luster, as if it could pierce everything.

Seeing that the Fiery Rhino was about to kill him, at this moment, a cold light suddenly flashed in the eyes of the young man in the long gown, and the next moment, he instantly appeared on the top of the Fiery Rhino's head.

Swoosh——

The young man in the long gown drew out his long sword and then slashed it down with one sword.

Chi!

A flash of sword light passed by, and time and space seemed to be frozen at this moment.

The next second, the head of the Fiery War Rhino flew up, blood splattered.

Boom!

The huge body fell down with a bang, and died on the spot.

"What!" Lin Xiao widened his eyes, shocked in his heart. That was a ninth-level demon in the Gathering Spirit Realm, and the young man in the long gown killed it with just one sword.

What a fast and sharp sword, Lin Xiao exclaimed in his heart.

At this moment, another sound of breaking wind sounded.

Immediately, a figure appeared beside the young man. It was a middle-aged man in a green robe, with a calm expression, and his eyes fell on the corpse on the ground.

"Qingfeng, your sword energy is stronger, and you must be one step closer to becoming a sword king." The middle-aged man smiled.

Qingfeng shook his head, "It's still a little short of the right time, otherwise it wouldn't have run so far."

"Master, the monsters in the Black Wind Mountains are really weak. Even the monsters in the center can't withstand a few of my swords. The monsters in the Death Forest are thick-skinned and tough."

"Alas, I've heard you complain all the way," the middle-aged man shrugged. "Our Sword Academy came to Dark Star City to recruit students this time. It was originally just my business. You might as well stay in the academy and practice. You know, there are many people in the academy who are practicing hard.

To surpass you."

Qingfeng looked calm and unconcerned, "If they have that strength, I welcome them anytime. For two years, no one has been able to take my first place on the Swordsmanship Ranking. I really hope someone can surpass me. Being invincible is too lonely."

The middle-aged man smiled faintly and said nothing.

"Come out. "Suddenly, Qingfeng shouted.

Hearing this, Lin Xiao's body trembled suddenly. The other party was obviously speaking towards him. He didn't expect that he tried his best to suppress his breath and didn't move, but he still exposed his position.

The other party could kill the big monster with one sword. He was definitely not his opponent. In front of such a master, running away was a foolish thing to do. Lin Xiao sighed and simply came out of the bushes.

He had an ancient great man like Bai Yuan in his sea of ​​consciousness. If there was really danger, Lin Xiao believed that Uncle Bai would have a way to save him.

Seeing Lin Xiao come out, Qingfeng's face was still cold, but soon, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and a hint of playfulness appeared at the corner of his mouth.

And the middle-aged man also nodded slightly, with a touch of appreciation in his eyes.

"Master, what do you think?" Qingfeng said suddenly.

"At such a young age, the foundation of swordsmanship is so solid, and the breath is strong, which is really good. "The middle-aged man nodded, as if he saw through Lin Xiao's strength at a glance.

Swish——

Qingfeng drew out his long sword, and pointed the tip of the sword at Lin Xiao, "Boy, you are qualified to take my sword."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao was stunned, and then frowned, "What do you mean, do we know each other, why do you want me to take your sword?"

"Boy, this is your honor, stop talking nonsense, draw your sword." Qingfeng said lightly.

"Don't call me a boy all the time, if you really want to compete with me, you should respect your opponent. There are differences in strength among sword cultivators, but there is no difference in personality. Although I am not strong, I also understand this. "Lin Xiao said neither humble nor arrogant.

Hearing this, Qingfeng was stunned for a moment, and then the corners of his mouth slightly lifted. What an interesting boy.

The middle-aged man on the side also smiled lightly. Let's not talk about the child's strength, just this calm and unhurried, neither humble nor arrogant mentality, it is worth looking up to him.
