Fantasy: Immortality Begins with Absorbing Demons

Chapter 105 A Heart-Piercing Knife

"Based on the information we have so far, this is indeed the only possibility..."

Han Yi pondered for a moment, but said nothing more.

A few days ago, he asked Bai Sanren to find out about the hungry tiger that attacked them in the forest that day.

After all, neither he nor Qianxue had the connections that Bai Sanren had.

However, looking at it today, the result is not satisfactory...

Bai Sanren found nothing in his network of relationships. He even inquired about the matter with Steward Yi of the Department of Strange Affairs, but the Heavenly Mirror still couldn't find the origin of the hungry tiger.

It can only be guessed that this hungry tiger previously lived deep in the Black Rock Mountain. Only in this way could the Heavenly Mirror not detect it, and could only detect the fluctuations of Yin energy near Anyan City.

The Black Rock Mountains are vast and boundless, and no one knows how many wild beasts and monsters dwell within them. Only in this place could such ferocious creatures be born.

"Come on, Mr. Bai, have another drink!"

Han Yi stopped dwelling on the matter and began to chat with Bai Sanren about all sorts of things.

Thanks to Bai Sanren's extensive knowledge and experience, and moreover, his treatment of Han Yi as his own junior, without holding back any of his knowledge, his martial arts training techniques could occasionally inspire Han Yi.

Han Yi, with his perspective from his previous life, possessed a scientific understanding of training methods that was unparalleled in this world. The combination of these two perspectives led to some remarkable insights.

When Bai Sanren got to the part where he was having fun, Han Yi would occasionally chime in, and the smiles on the faces of the old man and the young man grew even wider.

The two chatted animatedly, drinking from the moonlit night until the wee hours, leaving the private room a mess of empty wine jars and cups. Qianxue, long since impatient with their drinking, returned to her courtyard early…

The next day, early in the morning.

Han Yi threw off the blanket and shook his head slightly.

Although martial artists have exceptional physiques and each of them has a high alcohol tolerance, he and Bai Sanren drank far too much last night.

Besides the two jars of Shaoxing wine at the beginning, when we got into the swing of things, we ordered four more jars of fragrant green ant wine, and before we knew it, we had drunk too much…

Han Yi is now quite drunk, and even his memory of returning to the restaurant last night is somewhat hazy.

"I had some plans for today..."

Han Yi's thoughts spread like melon vines, becoming both blurred and chaotic due to his intoxication.

system!

He silently recited the following: [Martial Arts]: Thunderclap Palm Technique (High-grade Yellow Rank, Characteristics: Shattering Stones and Splitting Earth, Frenzied Strike, Proficient (5/20), Upgradeable); Basic Sword Technique (Mortal Rank, Characteristics: Sword Dance, Mind's Eye, Mastery, Cannot be Upgraded); Flying Swallow Leg Technique (Low-grade Yellow Rank, Characteristics: Gale, Minor Mastery (1/50), Upgradeable); Bai Family Sword Technique (High-grade Yellow Rank, Beginner (1/10), Upgradeable)

Upon seeing the Bai Family Sword Technique on the panel, he immediately had a clue.

"Deducing the 'Bai Family Sword Technique'!"

A memory suddenly surfaced—a memory of years of arduous sword practice, sweating profusely.

After gaining fame, "Mind-Eye Blade" remained humble and focused on honing his swordsmanship to its pinnacle.

But even though he didn't seek out trouble, trouble came to him. One of the sword masters he had defeated returned home in defeat, but he was still troubled by it, feeling that he had disgraced the way of the sword. In a moment of despair, he hanged himself.

As a result, the disciples, relatives, and friends of the sword master kept coming to cause trouble for Mind's Eye Blade.

They used either the pretext of revenge or the claim that swords were superior to knives to surround and force "Mind's Eye Knife" into a fight.

At first, Xin Yan Dao was somewhat delighted because someone could teach him how to spar and practice his swordsmanship. But gradually, he began to get annoyed.

He burned all the challenge invitations, refused all matches, and shut his doors to the public.

But what no one expected was that when Xin Yan Dao refused to come out of his room, these people threatened him with the lives of his relatives, friends, and neighbors to force him to fight!

With no other option, Xin Yan Dao was forced to deal with the situation. He defeated all the intruders, but this put him in a very difficult position.

In the martial arts world, those who wield knives regard him as a role model, while those who wield swords see him as a formidable enemy that must be defeated!

Left with no other choice, Xin Yan Dao left his hometown and went to a majestic mountain, determined to cultivate in seclusion. Little did he know that his departure would only cause even greater controversy!

The knife faction says that the Mind-Eye Knife believes swordsmanship is too weak and is tired of fighting the weak.

However, the sword sect claimed that it was clearly Xin Yan Dao who, fearing the challenge from the swordsmen, fled before the battle.

As a result, the matter became a huge uproar and escalated. What started as a quarrel among a group of people wielding knives and swords gradually spread to the major forces in the martial arts world.

Since ancient times, the debate over which sword is stronger has never ceased, and of course, there has never been a true victor. Perhaps the sword is stronger now, but in the next era, the sword may become the dominant force.

At this time, a saying circulated in the martial arts world: "The Overlord's Blade has no edge, the Seven Swords have no life."

This sentence mentions two powerful factions that use swords and blades: the Overlord Blade Sect and the Seven Swords Manor.

The Overlord Blade Sect's signature martial art, "Overlord Blade," is a sword technique that, when mastered, can unleash a single strike with the force of a mountain collapsing and the earth splitting. Its blade power is incomparably domineering, making it a renowned first-rate force in the northern martial arts world. With tens of thousands of disciples, its influence is extremely vast.

The Seven Swords Manor was originally called the Ten Thousand Swords Manor, but later, a genius with extraordinary talent emerged. He was exceptionally gifted and could simplify complex things, transforming ten thousand swords into seven swords. When he thrust out a sword, it was as if thousands of long swords followed. He was known as the 'Seven Swords Without Life'!

With these seven sword techniques, the Seven Swords Elders established a formidable reputation in the martial arts world, and the Seven Swords Manor rose to prominence as a result, becoming a first-rate force. Although the number of disciples was small, each one was an elite, and the Seven Swords Manor was the leader among the various forces in the southern martial arts world.

These two forces, one in the south and one in the north, had previously clashed over their theories on swordsmanship and territorial control, but with both sides experiencing victories and defeats, it was impossible to determine a clear winner.

However, with the mysterious disappearance of the Heart-Eye Blade, the conflict between swordsmen and knife-wielders in the martial arts world, and the instigation of a group of people, two major forces intervened...

Thus, the situation began to escalate, and the incident had broken out into a major conflict involving swords and blades! In an instant, chaos erupted in the martial world, with the glint of swords, the clash of spears, the bloodshed, and the rise of grudges and passions!

A young girl asked her father, who was going out, "Isn't a fight between swords just a fight between spirits?"

But the older generation, without turning their heads, said, "The spirit of the martial world is what matters most in this world!"

Behind him, only the mother and daughter remained, their eyes brimming with tears.

The catalyst for the sword fight, however, was the Heart-Eye Blade, who stood quietly on the mountain, gazing into the distance.
