After changing her master, she turned to the ruthless way, and the whole sect knelt down

"The Sect Master has personally given the order, how could it be false?" Xianyue raised an eyebrow slightly. "But don't be too happy too soon. Putting aside whether you have the talent to take first place, the spirit swords in the Sword Washing Pool have already developed spiritual consciousness and are quite temperamental."

"If you don't gain their approval, even if you can enter the Sword Washing Pool, don't even think about taking out any sword."

This was true, but Xie Liuyin did not feel lost because of it.

As early as when she knew about the existence of the Sword Washing Pool, she was already aware of the rules there.

The Qingxiao Sect was a large sect, and its founder was a sword cultivator. Although the sect later absorbed many talented people, it gradually moved away from focusing solely on teaching sword cultivators.

However, the Qingxiao Sect's habit of collecting spirit swords has been retained. Until now, the number of spirit swords in the sect is astonishingly large. For this reason, a sword-washing pool has been specially designated in the back mountain and handed over to the second elder, who is a sword cultivator, to look after.

The Sword Washing Pool is a place rich in spiritual energy, and spiritual swords have been giving birth to spiritual consciousness over the years.

All cultivators know that once a spiritual sword develops spiritual consciousness, it is very likely to give rise to a sword spirit in the future.

Such a spiritual sword is extremely precious and not just anyone can use it if they pick it up.

Over the years since the Sword Washing Pool was formed, many disciples of the Qingxiao Sect have been blessed and can go there to find a spiritual sword that suits them.

However, nine out of ten people who go in will come out empty-handed, as these extremely picky spirit swords are unwilling to choose their masters easily.

But even though he knew it was very difficult to be recognized as the master by the spirit sword, Xie Liuyin still couldn't help but feel excited.

After all, what swordsman in this world doesn't want to encounter a sword with spiritual consciousness?

Seeing the eagerness in Xie Liuyin's eyes, Xianyue stopped trying to stop her: "Since you want to have your own spirit sword so much, then you should continue to practice hard. The opportunity is now in front of you. Whether you can seize it depends on you."

"Disciple knows. Thank you Master for reminding me!" Xie Liuyin suppressed the excitement in his heart, bowed to Xianyue, and hurriedly left his room.

But this time she didn't rush to practice sword. Instead, she followed Xianyue's instructions and went to the library to find suitable body movements and footwork.

There are quite a few of these two types of skills, but the quality is not very high.

Xie Liuyin searched for a long time before finding two suitable earth-level martial arts techniques.

One of the footwork techniques is called "Ghost Shadow Searching", and the other is called "Wind Without Trace".

Although the name is a bit old-fashioned, you can tell it is a good thing just by looking at the grade.

Xie Liuyin took them back and asked Xianyue to help look at them. These two books of exercises did not have too many restrictions on the practitioners. If they could practice well, they could at least be used until the Spirit Transformation Stage.

With Xianyue's affirmation, Xie Liuyin no longer wasted time. She only had one month to prepare for the competition.

If he fails to improve his cultivation and learn the two techniques before then, Xie Liuyin's chances of winning will be greatly reduced.

For the sake of her dream sword, she must not lose this time!

Xie Liuyin was actively preparing for the upcoming competition, while Xie Mingzhu, who was being taught by Ye Chaoyun, was obviously not focusing on her cultivation.

It was another quiet night. Xie Mingzhu quietly ran to the back mountain, but did not see the familiar figure in the cave.

She couldn't help but feel strange. Didn't he say he would help her get the wooden bracelet back? Why had the little fox disappeared for so many days after running away?

For some reason, Xie Mingzhu felt a little uneasy.

She frowned and was already planning to find an opportunity to visit Sun Peak.

At this time, the little fox was sleeping soundly with his limbs spread out in Xie Liuyin's room, completely unaware that his benefactor was planning to come to the Sun Peak to capture him personally.

Seeing the little fox sleeping soundly on the bed beside him, Xie Liuyin tiptoed to the small training room in the house.
