Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Four days had passed since Ye Feng and the others left.

During these four days, Lu Kangnian came to check on Li Guanqi's cave several times a day.

Suddenly!

At the summit of Sky Sword Peak.

A dark spatial rift suddenly appeared!

Lu Kangnian, upon noticing it, instantly teleported to the location.

Spiritual light array patterns quickly formed, and amidst the flashing light, a tall and upright figure slowly emerged.

When Lu Kangnian saw that only Ye Feng had returned, he immediately frowned.

Not only that, but he also noticed that Ye Feng's expression was not right, which made him frown even more.

"Ye Feng, what happened?"

"Why did only you return? Did something happen to Xiao Chen's side?"

Ye Feng nodded, and then a spatial force enveloped him, and the two arrived at Lu Kangnian's study.

The two sat facing each other, and Ye Feng told Lu Kangnian everything that had happened recently.

After listening, Lu Kangnian was stunned in place for a long time.

Finally, he asked Ye Feng some more questions about the Abyss Demons, and after hearing about the Xiao family, he couldn't help but sigh.

"You did the right thing. Don't care about whether it's the other party's family matter at this time."

"If you don't stand by his side, he will feel even more alone..."

"Alas... I didn't expect that such a disaster would occur. It's truly an unforeseen calamity."

Thinking of this, Lu Kangnian couldn't help but recall the past two days when Xiao Chen had been diligently teaching and lecturing in the sect.

"Tell Xiao Chen later that he can talk to me about anything he needs help with."

"We can also help with rebuilding his home."

Ye Feng also felt somewhat uncomfortable, and looked up at the Sect Master and said.

"It's enough for us to have this intention. Cross-domain teleportation consumes too many resources and is simply not worth it."

"Sect Master, how is the boss's closed-door cultivation recently?"

"Also... how is Cao Yan?"

Lu Kangnian sighed.

"The barrier around Guanqi's side is still there, but I can't sense any aura inside."

"It feels... feels..."

"How should I put it... it's like the cave inside the mountain peak has suddenly been hollowed out, and I can't sense anything."

"Cao Yan is also in closed-door cultivation now, and I don't know when he will be able to make a breakthrough."

Ye Feng frowned and pondered for a long time before speaking.

"I don't think there's any need to worry about the boss. If you can't detect anything, then you can't detect anything. I believe the boss knows what he's doing."

"There's no need to worry about Cao Yan. It will be ten days to half a month at the shortest, and three to five years at the longest."

"He will definitely break through to the Return to Void Realm."

Lu Kangnian suddenly muttered mysteriously: "Do you think... can I keep Cao Yan in the sect as a Law Enforcement Elder?"

Ye Feng was slightly taken aback and glanced at Lu Kangnian.

"Sect Master, your abacus beads are bouncing on my face."

Lu Kangnian smiled awkwardly, raised his hand and took a sip of tea, saying: "Cough cough, aren't we all our own people here? What do you think?"

Ye Feng said bluntly: "Cao Yan has an upright and steady personality, so he can do a good job as a Law Enforcement Elder."

Hearing this, Lu Kangnian still had a smile on his face, feeling that he would definitely be able to keep Cao Yan.

But then Ye Feng poured a bucket of cold water on him.

"But I don't think Third Brother will stay in the sect forever."

"Why?"

Lu Kangnian was puzzled.

"For no reason, don't look at him like a weak scholar, he is equally warlike and competitive at heart."

"Just with the boss's existence, the pressure on me and him in terms of cultivation will become extremely great."

"So... there is a high probability that we will still choose to leave in the future and go to the Six Domains to train."

Ye Feng said truthfully.

Lu Kangnian sighed, but he didn't force them to stay for the sake of the sect.

"A good man should have ambitions in all directions. You are not wrong."

"You should rise with the wind and fly for thousands of miles, travel all over the world, and experience all kinds of emotions and desires."

Ye Feng smiled, and after chatting for a few more words, he left the study.

After Ye Feng left, Lu Kangnian sat on the chair with a glint in his eyes, gently tapping the table with his fingers.

He murmured to himself: "Demon!"

Lu Kangnian suddenly stood up!

After finding Ling Daoyan, he also called Qin Xian over!

He told the two of them everything he had talked about today, and Ling Daoyan looked at Lu Kangnian sharply and said in a deep voice.

"Is all of this true?"

Lu Kangnian shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Ye Feng wouldn't lie, and besides, this matter is so big, it's easy to verify."

Qin Xian frowned, and his old face showed some inexplicable fear.

Ling Daoyan pondered for a long time, and immediately made a decision.

"No, we have to go to the Demon Suppression Stone Pillar to check!"

Then the three of them each took out a piece of black jade pendant from their arms.

When the three pieces were combined into one, a wave of spatial fluctuation came, and the three figures instantly disappeared in the study.

Back mountain cave dwelling.

The spiritual light in front of Li Guanqi gradually completed, and finally dissipated in mid-air.

He simulated the Return to Void process thousands of times in the cave dwelling.

And the time Li Guanqi experienced had already passed for nearly a month.

He didn't know everything that happened outside.

Moreover, he didn't think anything would happen.

Now, within the territory of the Great Xia Sword Sect, there are three Void Refinement Realm mighty cultivators.

Meng Wanshu, Ye Feng, Xiao Chen, and a half-step Void Refinement Realm Cao Yan.

He didn't think anyone in the entire Azure Cloud Continent would be so blind as to provoke the current Great Xia Sword Sect.

During these days, he had been single-mindedly simulating every step of the Return to Void process.

The spiritual stones in the cave dwelling, as well as the spiritual stones he prepared himself, were enough for him to use for Return to Void.

Even if the Sword Spirit moved out the entire Time Flow Acceleration Formation, it would be enough.

Li Guanqi simulated it thousands of times, and the Sword Spirit watched it thousands of times.

Every time there was even a slight mistake, the Sword Spirit would point it out to him in the end.

In this process, Li Guanqi's state of mind was also gradually polished to be much smoother.

After all, it is inevitable to be a little impetuous to repeat the same thing in a boring way.

Until the last hundreds of times without any mistakes, the Sword Spirit nodded in satisfaction.

When Li Guanqi slowly opened his eyes, the Sword Spirit stood up and said.

"The rest is up to you."

Li Guanqi smiled slightly, and nodded firmly.

He circulated his cultivation technique and began to breathe out spiritual energy, filling his dantian and the Heavenly Thunder Pearl with Yuan Power.

After another three days, Li Guanqi adjusted his state to the peak.

He swallowed the Mind-Calming Pill prepared for him by Meng Wanshu, as well as an extremely precious seventh-order Return to Void Pill!

As the medicinal pill transformed into pure power and roamed his body, dark clouds suddenly gathered within the territory of the Great Xia Sword Sect.

But these dark clouds were like headless flies, spinning around randomly, forming patches of dark clouds wandering in the sky above.

Li Guanqi guided the power in his body to travel through his meridians with a calm expression.

He had experienced this scene thousands of times, and there was no sense of stagnation at all.

Immediately afterwards, the Yuan Spirit vibrated, and under Li Guanqi's control, a small black spot suddenly appeared on the Yuan Spirit.

A burst of soul-splitting pain suddenly swept through his mind!!!

Cold sweat instantly soaked his clothes!!

He had forgotten the pain of tearing the Yuan Spirit in so many previous simulations!

This kind of pain is to tear apart one's three souls and seven spirits and the entire sea of consciousness!!

Li Guanqi trembled all over, but he did not stop his movements, he had to complete all of this before the power of the Return to Void Pill dissipated!!

Li Guanqi's face was pale, his lips trembled, and his shoulders twitched unconsciously.

He endured inhuman pain, but his movements did not stop at all.
