My ordinary path to immortality shouldn't end here.

Chapter 8 The Evil Sword Soul is not convinced, and neither are you
After hearing the woman's "friendly" explanation, Bai Chijing finally understood what was going on. It turned out that while there weren't explicit rules for elite disciples, there were hidden ones. So, he responded with an equally "friendly" smile: "Thank you for the explanation, Senior Sister. I'll be leaving shortly."

The woman did not find it strange to see Bai Chijing smiling, because those who had wanted to please her in the past had also done so.

She had already gotten used to it.

So, she just nodded slightly and turned away.

Firstly, she really believed what Bai Chijing said, and secondly, she thought it would be beneath her dignity to communicate too much with someone like Bai Chijing. Although she was not eligible for special supplies, she knew someone who could enjoy special supplies, and they had a very good relationship!

The task of keeping an eye on the training residence above this body of water was something she did spontaneously in order to please the other party.

Seeing the woman walking away quickly, Bai Chijing kept his promise and said he would leave later. After all, he still had to go to the Weeping Sword Valley to receive his punishment. Before leaving, he naturally did not remove his disciple identity jade token.

After all, he only agreed to leave, but not to move away.

……

The Weeping Sword Valley, one of the twelve forbidden areas, is not difficult to find.

Even when each disciple first entered the sect, they would be led to take a look from afar. But this was only one chance.

So this was the first time that Bai Chijing saw the Weeping Sword Valley up close.

This Weeping Sword Valley was no different from any other valley, except that at the valley's entrance stood twelve bronze statues. This was a formation, specifically designed to suppress the vicious swords within.

Bai Chijing looked around and walked straight in.

He wasn't too worried.

Although the valley is dangerous, it is not fatal.

What's more, his sword energy is no less than divine power, enough to suppress the evil sword spirit in the valley.

Therefore, Bai Chijing couldn't help but feel a little strange. What was the relationship between the evil sword spirit in the valley and the suppressed evil sword?
If the evil sword soul is the core of the evil sword, then the sword soul of the evil sword that requires a large formation to suppress should not be so weak.

At least someone like him who is in the middle level of external objects is definitely not qualified to suppress it.

It is highly likely that you don't even have the qualifications to face his sword spirit directly.

But if it is just a derivative of the evil sword, then why is it called the Evil Sword Soul?

The names of things in the world of cultivating immortals should not be so fabricated. There must be a reason for everything.

Bai Chijing was thinking in his heart.

But soon, he no longer had the mind to think about these things.

As soon as he came in, he felt the evilness of this place.

The valley was filled with hideous-looking stone walls, which not only blocked the view but also suppressed the cultivators' ability to escape into the air. His sword energy, like that of a swimming fish, was greatly suppressed at this moment.

Turning my eyes, I saw that everything was scarlet.

This is not a bloody invasion, but the violent aura of this place has reached its peak!
However, although this place was dangerous, there was no sudden warning of danger, which made Bai Chijing feel a little relieved. Otherwise, he would have to consider the price he would have to pay for turning around and running away.

Bai Chijing looked around and found the direction.

Because there was only one tower protruding from the numerous stone walls, it was truly eye-catching. The only problem was that the sheer number of stone walls transformed it into an open-air maze, requiring precise navigation. Unable to fly, Bai Chijing walked for an incense stick's worth of time before finding his uncle, who was responsible for guarding this area of ​​Weeping Sword Valley.

This is an external appearance realm person who looks very old.

His surname is Su and his given name is Yi.

Su Yi was also a famous figure in his early years. He was well-known outside Tujian Mountain and was known as the Dragon-Fighting Sword Immortal.

However, as he grew older, Su Yi accepted the extremely exhausting job of guarding the Weeping Sword Valley and never went down the mountain again. Even in Tujian Mountain, this Dragon-Fighting Sword Immortal was rarely seen.

When Bai Chijing found this uncle-master who was at the External Minister level, he unexpectedly discovered that Ling Yuxian was there too!
This surprised Bai Chijing.

Because he really didn't know that this guy also came to the Weeping Sword Valley to be punished.

However, no matter how unexpected it was, Bai Chijing just stepped forward and bowed respectfully with his fists clasped.

"Bai Chijing, meet Uncle Master."

He still knows who he can provoke and who he cannot provoke.

At least a cultivator who is at the middle level of the external world, whether male or female, is not worthy of Bai Chijing's fear.

"Well! It's good that you're here. This is the Jieli Pearl, which can curb the evil spirit in this place and its influence on you. And every six hours, it will open a protection for you, and the protection time will last for six hours. How you arrange these twelve hours is up to you." The Fighting Dragon Sword Immortal took out two flat silver-white beads, handed them out, and explained in a calm tone.

At this moment, Bai Chijing couldn't help but feel a little moved when he heard these words.

Half day and half night?
So he has to work for twelve hours before he can rest?
This made Bai Chijing feel as if he had not traveled through time for a moment, but then he became puzzled again. Why did Ling Yuxian also have to suffer such a painful punishment?
This guy is one of the six beauties!
But soon, Bai Chijing no longer had the mind to think about this.

Because suppressing the evil sword spirit was more energy-consuming than he had imagined! When the Jieli Pearl automatically opened the silver-white protective barrier, Bai Chijing sat down directly on the ground.

He doesn't look like an immortal cultivator at all.

At this moment, his face was pale and he was sweating profusely. His clothes were soaked with sweat.

This kind of situation usually only occurs in mortal warriors, or immortal cultivators at the initial stage of the Outer Realm. But now, Bai Chijing, who is clearly at the intermediate stage of the Outer Realm, behaves even worse than a mortal warrior.

This is the aftereffect of having one's vital energy almost drained away.

After all, he does not have any magical powers, and the sword energy of the fish he obtained from practicing "Sword Heart Breathing" is also transformed from his own essence.

All of these swimming fish sword energies were previously lost in the attempt to suppress the evil sword spirit.

Those fierce sword spirits were completely invisible and intangible, and could only be sensed by the cultivation of immortals. Once they appeared nearby, they would strike directly.

He didn't even say hello, which is really unsportsmanlike.

At this moment, Bai Chijing felt his palm tremble slightly, and as some of his own light red aura was absorbed by the bead, words soon appeared.

[Today, you came to Weeping Sword Valley to be punished. You used brute force to confront the evil sword spirit for a whole day. The evil sword spirit is not convinced, and neither are you.]

[Refine, gain the same unconvinced spirit +1]

The words faded away, and Bai Chijing, who had not yet recovered, suddenly became rosy-faced.

All the tiredness disappeared immediately!
