Invincible!

Chapter 22 Attitude
The Sword Saint of Guangyuan took a short rest today and did not gather the experts of Jiangzhou for a discussion.

Outsiders speculated that it was because Su Jianxing had gone to Canglang Mountain, and the Sword Saint was intentionally giving him special training, but in reality...

Guangyuan Sword Saint and Su Jianxing were not close friends.

The reason is that half a year ago, Yang Zuotian, the Feather Saint of Shengwu Tower who had reached the Saint level in lightness skill, came forward to try to take him as a disciple, but he refused outright and instead accepted funding from a local sect.

Although it wasn't Guangyuan Sword Saint who was rejected, since they were both members of the Holy Martial Pavilion, Su Jianxing's rejection of Yang Zuotian naturally made Guangyuan Sword Saint uncomfortable as well.

If it weren't for the fact that he was wary of Su Jianxing's potential to surpass the Dragon Gate this year, he wouldn't have bothered to answer Su Jianxing's question a few days ago.

At this moment, the Sword Saint was looking at the Hidden Dragon Ranking.

Of the 36 people on the list, 30 were circled.

This means that all thirty people already have a sugar daddy.

The remaining six people...

The highest-ranked person is only nineteenth.

And surprisingly, he didn't come to the Canglang Mountain Sword Tournament this time.

Thinking back to the misfits brought by the martial arts masters from various schools in Jiangzhou over the past two weeks, the Sword Saint of Guangyuan could only shake his head.

"master."

At that moment, a woman in her thirties brought over a document.

Guangyuan Sword Saint took it and glanced at it.

"Li Xian?"

He glanced at him briefly and his eyes lit up: "A twenty-two-year-old with mastered internal organs? His combat power is almost on par with those who have undergone blood and marrow cleansing?"

But then his gaze fell on a piece of information, and he immediately frowned: "Blood Jade Technique?"

"His achievements do not seem to be due to the Blood Jade Technique."

"Oh?"

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan took it somewhat seriously, but then he felt something was amiss: "Two and a half months of training? Mastery of internal organs? What's going on with this message!?"

"it is true."

The woman said, "I have a guess that he is following the path of first studying to clarify his ambitions, and then learning martial arts to enter the Dao."

"First study to clarify your ambitions, then learn martial arts to enter the Dao... How could an ordinary person possibly take this path?"

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan pondered for a moment after looking at the data, and finally ordered: "Investigate in detail."

"I've already sent someone; we should have results in three to five days."

The woman responded.

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan nodded.

He personally doesn't quite believe that Li Xian achieved mastery of his lungs in just two and a half months.

but……

Even though he hadn't practiced martial arts for less than three months, his internal organs had reached a state of perfection at the age of twenty-two...

In the eyes of this swordsman, they were at least much better than those ugly and deformed ones, and worth his attention.

Just then, another voice came from outside: "Master, Master Zhou of the Lijiang Longquan Martial Arts School requests an audience."

"Longquan Martial Arts School?"

Guangyuan Sword Saint glanced at the information about Zhou Juechen in the documents and smiled: "The main character has arrived. Please invite him in."

Without needing to be told, the woman quickly packed her things and went to prepare tea and snacks.

Then, Zhou Juechen was brought over by another person.

After exchanging pleasantries, before Zhou Juechen could speak, the top expert pushed the documents in front of him: "Does Master Zhou think these documents are real or fake?"

Zhou Juechen glanced at it and was not surprised that the Sword Saint of Guangyuan knew Li Xian's basic information so quickly.

"If all this information is true, and Li Xian did indeed follow the path of first studying to clarify his ambitions and then learning martial arts to enter the Dao, and mastered it in just two and a half months, what does the Sword Saint of Guangyuan think of his talent?"

"A martial arts prodigy".

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan gave a concise and straightforward evaluation in four words.

"What if he wants to obtain the Holy Martial Pavilion and the support of the Sword Saint of Guangyuan?"

Zhou Juechen said.

"Ah."

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan chuckled: "If this information is indeed true after verification, I am willing to take him as my personal disciple, keep him by my side, teach him carefully, and do my best to help him leap over the Dragon Gate in five years."

Zhou Juechen fell silent.

After a long pause, he said, "What if... he only wants some supplies, cultivation techniques, or insights from the Holy Martial Pavilion or from the Sword Saint of Guangyuan... such as Blood Spirit Powder, Mahayana Body Refining Technique, or Heavenly Heart Sword Intent?"

Guangyuan Sword Saint was slightly taken aback, but quickly understood Zhou Juechen's meaning.

But... "Zhou Juechen, do you know what you're saying?"

He said it indifferently.

That short sentence put immense pressure on Zhou Juechen.

Despite his blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, if he were to anger a top expert like the Sword Saint of Guangyuan, he feared he wouldn't even be able to withstand a single sword strike...

But in the end, he still forced himself to say, "As far as I know, Li Xian has many hidden dangers, and they are even related to that immortal seedling in the capital. In order to avoid his troubles from involving you, Sword Saint Guangyuan, perhaps... we can each get what we need."

"A celestial seed?"

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan said calmly, "Let's not talk about when or whether that immortal seedling will enter the Dao. Even if he does enter the Dao, with the Holy Martial Tower behind me, what do I have to fear?"

This……

Zhou Juechen was speechless for a moment.

But more than anything, there is helplessness.

He knew this would be the result.

"However, I understand what you mean. Go ahead."

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan calmly picked up his teacup.

Seeing this, Zhou Juechen had no choice but to bow and say, "I apologize for my rudeness, I'll take my leave now."

He quickly turned and left.

His posture looked somewhat disheveled.

However, the Sword Saint of Guangyuan did not look at him again, but instead turned his attention back to the document.

After a long while, he called out, "Yinsha."

"master."

The woman stepped forward to await instructions.

"Take a dose of Blood Spirit Powder and send it to that Mr. Li."

He calmly gave the order: "Remember, deliver it to him personally."

The woman, Yinsha, was slightly taken aback: "Blood Spirit Powder, given to Li Xian?"

"He's quite an interesting junior."

The Sword Saint of Guangyuan said calmly, "Those conditions are enough to prove that this Martial Master Li is extremely proud, so proud that he has no respect for me at all. Such a person is either arrogant and conceited, or he is truly talented and has a heart that is higher than the sky."

He smiled and said, "He can be arrogant, but Zhou Juechen doesn't have the guts. Theoretically, Zhou Juechen would never dare to convey such an impolite request to me, but he still did it. What does that mean?"

Zhou Juechen has absolute confidence in him!

Yinsha exclaimed in surprise.

"It's just a Blood Spirit Powder anyway. I'd like to see if this Li Xian's talent is worthy of his arrogance."

The Way of the Sword Saint of Guangyuan.

"Yes, sir."

Yinsha agreed and quickly prepared to leave.

……

In the courtyard where Zhou Juechen was staying.

Li Xian recalled the effects of the intense battle he had just fought against Yan Lian and Liu Feng.

"Under the boiling and burning of qi and blood, explosive power is indeed significantly enhanced, but the negative effects of this burning on oneself are also visible to the naked eye. If one cultivates to the state of perfect harmony, with no leaks throughout the body and a significant reduction in frequency, one can recover. In contrast, a martial artist below the state of perfect harmony..."

Li Xian carefully considered it.

However, he vaguely felt that there was something in common between the burning of qi and blood and the explosion of dan jin.

The eruption of Dan Jin is essentially the sudden release of condensed Qi and blood; if it is further ignited or detonated during the release...

This is tantamount to adding fuel to the fire.

"This effect is definitely not as simple as one plus one equals two..."

Li Xian clasped his hands together: "This is the true method of fighting for one's life."

Although the consequences would obviously become more serious, once this line of thinking was clarified, it gave him a sudden insight.

"The Blood Jade Technique is said to be a blood debt repaid in blood and to destroy jade and stone together, but it is ultimately too refined, not extreme enough, and not pure enough."

Since it's called a demonic art, it has to look like one.

If one can remain non-lethal for a long period after practicing, what kind of demonic skill is that?

How is this different from a demonic cultivator who has to fulfill the other person's wishes before he can capture their soul?
At this moment, with a thirst for knowledge and truth, Li Xian began to ponder the fusion of the burst of Dan Jin (internal energy) and the burning of Qi and blood.
