The Venerable Swordsman

Chapter 517 Who Is It?

To beg others to help him!

Ye Xuan wanted to be stronger, but as he said, he wouldn’t beg anyone to help him become stronger.

No matter how strong the other side was, Ye Xuan wouldn’t do that!

For him, dignity was more important than getting stronger!

If others could accept him, it was naturally good, and he would also respect them, but if they couldn’t, it didn’t matter.

People were essentially on their own!

When the old man heard Ye Xuan’s words, a flash of appreciation flashed across his eyes, “Let’s get out of here!”

After that, he turned and left.

Ye Xuan kept up with him.

They left very smartly.

Not far away, the blacksmith looked at Ye Xuan and the old man silently.

At this time, a young man came to him. The young man looked at Ye Xuan and the old man in the distance, “Master, who are they?”

The blacksmith said in a deep voice, “Remember that boy, he might be your biggest opponent!”

Hearing this, the young man was stunned, then turned his head and looked into the distance...

Ye Xuan followed the old man back to the Sword Clan.

At the top of the mountain, the old man sat opposite Ye Xuan, “The man we met just now was Blacksmith Chen. He is one of the top-notch experts of Formality Style in Divine Martial City, no, in this Star Region. He is only at Reincarnation Realm, but his speed and strength far surpass that of some strong men in Tao Realm. Even I am far inferior to him in strength and speed.”

While speaking, he looked at Ye Xuan, “If you learn from him, you will certainly benefit a lot.”

Ye Xuan smiled, “It doesn’t matter. I can learn Consciousness Style from you first!”

The old man nodded, “You didn’t do your best when you fought with me earlier, did you?”

Ye Xuan nodded.

The old man said, “How much strength you preserved?”

Ye Xuan thought for a while, and then said, “Half of my strength!”

He didn’t go all out to fight with the old man or Blacksmith Chen. After all, he hadn’t used Divine King Chair, Zhenhun Sword or Divine King Sword.

In a fight to the death, if he used these three treasures, he might have a chance to win.

The old man took a deep look at Ye Xuan, “You are not an ordinary person, but I don’t want to find out your origin. Just remember that you are a disciple of the Sword Clan now.”

Ye Xuan nodded, “I am not an ungrateful person.”

The old man said with a smile, “That’s enough.”

Then he stood up, “I have nothing to teach you about speed and power. Now, I can teach you sword will and Artistic Conception! Let’s start with sword will. Come on, release your sword will!”

Ye Xuan nodded and released his sword will. Soon, his Good-evil Sword Will appeared on the site.

Seeing this, the old man frowned, “It’s...two kinds of sword will?”

Ye Xuan nodded.

The old man whispered, “It’s rare! How do you use sword will at ordinary times?”

How did he use this sword will?

Ye Xuan was stunned.

How did he use it before? It seemed that he just put his Sword Qi into it...

At this time, the old man suddenly broke his train of thought, “For Tao of the Sword, sword will and Artistic Conception are actually very important, especially your sword will. Your sword will represents your Tao of the Sword. If you can develop it, its power will be very terrifying.”

Ye Xuan hurriedly asked, “How should I develop it?”

The old man said, “The faith of Tao of the Sword!” Your sword will is the faith of your Tao of the Sword.”

Ye Xuan shook his head, “I still don’t understand.”

The old man suddenly put his fingers together, and a Qi sword appeared at the tip of his fingertips.

Ye Xuan looked at the old man’s Qi sword. The next moment, the Qi sword suddenly flew out at a very fast speed. He could only see its vague shadow.

The speed of this sword was almost the same as that of his flying sword.

The old man said, “This is the normal speed of my sword! Look at this!”

While speaking, he put his fingers together and beckoned lightly. A Qi sword appeared at the tip of his fingers. The next moment, he put his fingers together and pointed forward.

The sword flew out!

Hiss!

The speed of the sword was not much faster than before, but something indefinable about it had appeared!

Sword will!

These two words suddenly appeared in Ye Xuan’s mind. He looked at the old man, who nodded slightly, “It’s sword will! With sword will, this sword comes to life.”

Life!

Ye Xuan frowned slightly, “What does that mean?”“

The old man looked at Ye Xuan, “As sword cultivators, we not only cultivate our mind but also our swords! Swords can understand people, but your swords are completely dead. They don’t have their own souls.”

Ye Xuan said in a deep voice, “Superior swords have their own Sword Spirits. Then...”

The old man interrupted Ye Xuan, “In the hands of a real sword cultivator, an ordinary wooden branch is no different from the most powerful sword. Moreover, if you have superior swords, can you get the best out of their real power?”

Ye Xuan kept silent

At the time, he had Zhenhun Sword and Divine King Sword!

But he indeed couldn’t exert the real power of Zhenhun Sword!

The old man continued, “The most powerful thing about a sword cultivator is that he can give life to swords, and the most powerful thing about a sword is that it is extraordinary because of its owner.”

With that, he beckoned with his right hand, and a wooden branch landed in front of Ye Xuan, “Come on, take this wooden branch.”

Ye Xuan picked up the wooden branch. The old man said, “In your hand, this wooden branch is just a simple wooden branch. However, with your speed and strength, this wooden branch can also become very powerful, but it is still a wooden branch. Do you understand?”

Ye Xuan kept silent for a moment, and then nodded, “Yes!”

At this time, he really understood what the old man said.

Swords!

They became extraordinary because of their owners!

No matter what swords they were, whether they were strong or not depended entirely on their owners.

Just like this wooden branch in his hand, if it was in the hand of the woman in plain dress, any peerless swords couldn’t compare with it!

But in his hand, it was just a wooden branch!

Why?

The huge strength gap between him and the woman in plain dress?

In fact, it was because of the attainment gap of Tao of the Sword, and to put it simply, the attainment of Tao of the Sword was the Artistic Conception of Tao of the Sword!

Over the years, he paid attention to the speed and power of his swords, but ignored this point!

Sword will!

Ye Xuan looked at the wooden branch in his hand. Soon, his Good-evil Sword Will appeared on the wooden branch.

The old man continued, “Remember, it’s not that the wooden branch will have a soul after your sword will covers it. The right way is to nourish it with your sword will. You’ll take your time to understand the rest!”

After that, he turned and left.

On the site, Ye Xuan sat cross-legged on the ground, holding the wooden branch and being enveloped by the Good-evil Sword Will.

To comprehend!

What he needed to do at the time was comprehend what the old man said carefully!

After the old man left, he came to the Wangkong Mountain of the Sword Clan, which was the highest mountain and the stronghold of the Sword Clan.

In front of the Wangkong Hall, there was a statue. The statue was a young man with a sword at his waist, and there was a little guy sitting on his shoulder.

The old man walked up to the statue, bowed to it slightly, and then walked into the Wangkong Hall behind the statue.

Right after he entered the hall, a middle-aged man suddenly appeared.

It was the current suzerain of the Sword Clan, Li Xuanfeng.

Li Xuanfeng glanced at the old man and said with a smile, “Elder Tu, I heard that you accepted a new disciple.”

The old man whispered, “Can’t I do that?”

Li Xuanfeng shook his head, “Of course you can. But if you accept him as your disciple, he will be my peer...”

The old man said coldly, “You’ve got a problem with that?”

Li Xuanfeng gave a wry smile.

The old man sat aside and said, “That boy has good potential, otherwise, I wouldn’t have accepted him.”

Li Xuanfeng nodded, “The person who is fancied by you is certainly very outstanding.”

The old man looked straight at Li Xuanfeng, “You’re having someone spy on him?”

Li Xuanfeng kept silent.

The old man asked, “Why?”

Li Xuanfeng said in a deep voice, “Elder Tu, that person is not simple. He comes from Weiyang Star Region and has that supreme treasure!”

The old man frowned slightly, “What treasure?”

Li Xuanfeng said, “The treasure that ranks first on Star Wanted List!”

Hearing this, the old man frowned deeper.

Li Xuanfeng whispered, “It’s rumored that supreme treatment... Is not from the Four Dimensions World. The people who get it can enter the Five Dimensions World with it!”

The old man looked at Li Xuanfeng, “You want that thing, too?”

Li Xuanfeng kept silent.

The old man said in a deep voice, “The Four Dimensions World is still a mystery to you. Why do you want to get into the Five Dimensions World? To get yourself killed there?”

Li Xuanfeng gave a wry smile, “Elder Tu, this is an opportunity for us!”

The old man said, “What opportunity?”

Li Xuanfeng whispered, “Our Sword Clan has been in Divine Martial City for too long.”

The old man shook his head and sighed, “You are as ambitious as your master. Do you and your master still remember what our Founder said? He said we shouldn’t participate in worldly struggles. Because of that, our Sword Clan still exists no matter how Celestial Region changes.”

Li Xuanfeng said in a deep voice, “Elder Tu, times have changed now! Look at the star master outside. He was just a leader of a small force at the beginning, but now he is already the leader of Celestial Region. They are already much more influential than our Sword Clan.”

The old man said, “So what? Do they dare to offend our Sword Clan?”

Li Xuanfeng shook his head, “Elder Tu, I and my master want to make our Sword Clan famous in the whole Celestial Region and completely revitalize our Sword Clan.”

The old man shook his head, “Now you are the one who is in charge of our Sword Clan. I don’t want to get involved in this. But that kid is already my disciple. You and your master don’t try to hurt him.”

After that, he turned and left.

Li Xuanfeng suddenly said, “Elder Tu, some mysterious strong men have appeared around Divine Martial City. They are all here for him.”

The old man said without looking back, “Our Sword Clan could ignore them.”

Then he had disappeared.

Inside the hall, Li Xuanfeng kept silent for a moment. Then he went out of the hall and came to the statue in front of the hall. He looked at the statue, and his eyes gradually became a little cold...

At the top of the mountain.

Ye Xuan had been sitting there for four hours.

In the past four hours, his sword will had been covering the wooden branch in his hand.

Sword will!

At one time, he had defined his own Tao of the Sword, but after that, he never made any progress in Tao of the Sword!

What did it mean by saying swords became extraordinary because of their owners?

Ye Xuan looked at the wooden branch in his hand and fell into meditation.

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded in Ye Xuan’s brain, “A sword is like a fish. If there is no water, the fish would be dead!”

When Ye Xuan heard this, his expression changed greatly, “Who is it!”

The next moment, his expression changed dramatically again, and then a cold sweat appeared on his forehead...
