Starting from helping someone rob a wedding, he was forced to hide in the Sunset Sect

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo came to a mountain in the inner gate.

There are four independent mountains in the inner gate, three of which are inhabited by disciples.

There was a mountain that had not been developed and no disciples lived there. The two of them came to this mountain.

Xu Yeyu asked Jiang Yu to borrow the mountain, and Jiang Yu agreed to his request without any hesitation.

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo have reached the late stage of the Spirit Breaking Realm, which is higher than the realm of the two inner sect elders. They have long been qualified to become inner sect elders.

Jiang Yu felt that whether they were outer sect elders or inner sect elders, it made no difference.

It's nothing more than a position.

After all, Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo's status in Sunset Sect has long been higher than that of the inner sect elders.

"Why do you want to borrow this mountain?" Xia Xiaomo asked curiously.

There are no buildings on this mountain and it remains in its most pristine natural state.

"I will practice swordplay here for the next year."

Xu Yeyu paused for a moment and continued, "It's not appropriate to practice swordsmanship outside the sect, so I borrowed this mountain from the deputy sect master."

He is already a cultivator of the sixth realm. As long as he practices sword skills more seriously, the outer sect will not be able to withstand his torture.

The noise was too loud and would easily attract outer disciples to come and watch. If there were too many people watching, he would have to restrain himself.

As a result, the effectiveness of sword practice is greatly reduced.

Xia Xiaomo was slightly stunned when she heard this. She didn't know how long it had been since she saw Xu Yeyu practicing sword.

A lot has happened over the years.

At the Immortal Gate Conference, commissioned by the sect, he went to the Ninth Heaven, got stuck in the palace, and was trapped in a secret realm.

Ever since the two of them went down the mountain to do the sect's commission, Xia Xiaomo has never seen Xu Yeyu practice sword.

Xu Yeyu is a swordsman on the surface, but in fact he knows a lot of other things and he spends time studying other aspects.

Naturally, there is no time to practice sword.

"How long did you practice this time?" Xia Xiaomo asked curiously.

Xu Yeyu thought for a moment and replied, "About a year."

"You mean, I have to practice sword for a year without doing anything else during this time?" Xia Xiaomo asked again.

Is this still the Xu Yeyu she remembered?

Xu Yeyu nodded slightly and replied, "I go to Youyuan Town to have a meal every three days, and I practice swordplay the rest of the time."

Xia Xiaomo thought to herself, this is the Xu Yeyu she knows, and the meal must be eaten.

If a cultivator at the sixth level really wants to concentrate on something, he can do it for a whole year.

When Xu Yeyu was trapped in the secret realm of the Ice and Snow Palace, he spent two years preparing for that sword to break the formation.

"I'm in need of a suitable person to practice sword skills with. I wonder if this senior sister would be so kind as to accompany me for a whole year?" Xu Yeyu asked with a smile.

"I've already told you, don't call me Senior Sister."

Xia Xiaomo paused for a moment and continued, "I am now an elder of the Sunset Sect. You should call me Elder Xia."

Xu Yeyu bowed to Xia Xiaomo and asked, "Would Elder Xia be so kind as to accompany me in sword training for a year?"

"Since Elder Xu has invited me, I will practice sword with you for a year!" Xia Xiaomo said.

The two looked at each other and smiled.

This invitation seems serious, but in fact it is not serious at all.

After all, they are Taoist companions and they would not really call each other like that. They would only say it occasionally as a joke.

Xu Yeyu drew a talisman with his bare hands and said, "Before practicing swordsmanship, I have to set up a few formations first. It would be bad if it affects other peaks."

Xia Xiaomo just watched Xu Yeyu draw the talisman. She didn't understand the art of runes, let alone formations.

But she still watched Xu Yeyu set up the formation. What was important was to look at the person, not the formation.

"Do you plan to go to the secret realm to look for opportunities after you finish practicing sword?" Xia Xiaomo asked.

"This is my current plan. If nothing goes wrong, I will go to various secret places to look for opportunities in a year." Xu Yeyu replied.

Xia Xiaomo pondered for a moment and asked, "Have you mastered how to use that stone?"

She felt that Xu Yeyu had the ability to decipher how to use the stone, and there was no need to go to the imperial city to ask Zhao Beijun specifically.

“I have some ideas, but I need to put them into practice.”

Xu Yeyu paused for a moment and continued, "If it doesn't work, we can go to the Imperial City to find His Majesty. He should be able to tell us a way."

After an incense stick of time, Xu Yeyu had set up four formations and nodded with satisfaction.

"Now we won't affect other people. No matter how loud the noise we make, it won't be heard." Xu Yeyu said.

Xia Xiaomo nodded slightly and asked, "How do I practice?"

Xu Yeyu pondered for a moment and replied, "Let's not use the true qi first, just practice sword moves and reactions."

Another benefit of not using Qi to practice swordplay is that it helps strengthen your body.

Xu Yeyu and Xia Xiaomo had refined a few drops of dragon blood before, but they were already cultivators in the sixth realm, and the advantages brought by dragon blood were minimal.

The two now rely on immortal clothes, true qi and sword intent to protect themselves.

The physical body needs to be strengthened.

Xia Xiaomo took out the spirit sword from the scabbard and said, "No problem, I'll do as you say."

Liuhan is already a second-grade spiritual sword, one grade higher than Xu Yeyu's spiritual sword.

Xia Xiaomo obtained the materials for forging magic weapons from Zhao Beijun. In the first three months of being trapped in the secret realm, Xia Xiaomo handed these materials to Hua Menglan of Xianhua Pavilion.

There is also a cold current.

Hua Menglan is a weaponsmith, and she is very interested in Xia Xiaomo's spiritual sword.

A spiritual sword that can be upgraded is quite attractive to weaponsmiths.

Xia Xiaomo said that she had all the forging materials and asked Hua Menglan if she could help her refine the spirit sword.

Hua Menglan agreed without hesitation. She had never tried to upgrade her magic weapon before. With such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity before her, she certainly wanted to give it a try.

There were no accidents during the refining process. After all, Hua Menglan was an experienced weapon forger with hundreds of years of weapon forging experience.

Hua Menglan told Xia Xiaomo that Liuhan could be upgraded to a first-grade spiritual sword, but it required two extremely special materials.

These two materials can no longer be found in Beizhou.

Xu Yeyu took out the magic sword from the scabbard and put some distance between himself and Xia Xiaomo.

"Then let's get started."

As soon as the words fell, the two of them moved at the same time, turning into two afterimages.

The sword lights intersected, and the two swords collided with each other, making a crisp collision sound.

The spirit swords of the two people drew dazzling tracks in the air, interweaving into a brilliant silver light.

Xia Xiaomo's magic sword turned lightly, dissolving Xu Yeyu's attack.

She then stabbed back with her hand, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at Xu Yeyu.

Xu Yeyu raised his magic sword to neutralize Xia Xiaomo's attack, then used the force to turn around.

The sword swept across, turning from offense to defense, and ready for her next move.

Xia Xiaomo swung out with a sword, the sword tip brought up a gust of wind, and then she slashed at Xu Yeyu's right shoulder.

Every collision and resolution was like two streams of light dancing in the air. The sword moves were endlessly varied and it was difficult to tell which was better.

So, the two practiced sword for a year.

(Thanks to the great god of Cangfeng Imperial City who likes blackmouth fish for the certification, thank you!)
