I tricked you into thinking you had the makings of an emperor, but you actually did it?

Nearly a hundred Sky-Splitting Beasts were all killed by the golden flying sword in less than two minutes.

Shen Ming raised his arm, and the flying sword landed in his palm and disappeared into his body.

"A sword pellet! He actually refined a sword pellet at the Yuantai Realm? What kind of talent is that? What kind of powerful and wealthy force is that?"

In the Central Region, sword pellets are also used by those at the Supreme Realm to refine their natal flying swords.

Shen Ming used the golden Yuantai source material, which was extremely exaggerated.

"You can come out now."

Shen Ming turned around and looked towards the cabin.

The crisis was resolved, and the world returned to calm.

Su Feng and the others stepped out of the cabin, their expressions incredibly varied.

Facing Shen Ming, the arrogance from the Central Region vanished completely.

Top-tier genius, this is definitely at the level of a top-tier genius!

A question arose in the minds of these people: why would such a prodigy be adrift at sea?

Are all the powerful people in the Northern Region this ambitious?!

Or was Shen Ming not joking earlier, and really did come out of the forbidden zone of life?

That's true. They couldn't help but wonder what Shen Ming was doing in the forbidden zone of life. Surely not everyone in the Northern Region went to the forbidden zone of life for training.

Zhang Yuyan, captivated by Shen Ming's striking good looks, squeezed to the front, her full chest puffed out.

Little did she know, Shen Ming had no affection for her whatsoever.

"Senior Brother Shen, your flying sword technique is exquisite. May I ask what sword style you cultivate?"

Cui Li walked out of the crowd, and compared to the morning, her words and actions revealed sincerity.

"The Limitless Sword Path," Shen Ming answered truthfully.

"Is the Wuji Sword Path the strongest sword path in the Northern Region?" Cui Li asked.

The Cui family primarily consists of sword cultivators, and she and her younger brother cultivate the Gale Sword Path.

The skill that Shen Ming just displayed was extraordinary.

"To be honest, there are four great sword paths in the Northern Region: Taihao Sword Path, Taichu Sword Path, Wusheng Sword Path, and Xuanyuan Sword Path. Wuji Sword Path is not among them," Shen Ming said.

Because before this, no one had mastered the "Limitless Divine Skill," so naturally no one could master the Limitless Sword Dao.

These words were heard differently by the people of the Central Region.

They were shocked that Shen Ming, having cultivated to such a level, did not primarily focus on the strongest swordsmanship.

Wouldn't the other sword cultivators in the Northern Region be going to fly to the heavens then!

"The swordsmanship of the Northern Region is terrifying!"

Cui Li's heart stirred, and she found her younger brother Cui Fei, saying, "How much of what Senior Brother Shen taught you this morning do you still remember?"

"I've already forgotten about it."

Cui Fei stayed in the room and didn't see what had just happened. He assumed that his sister was still worried that he had listened to others' random advice.

"You're so useless! You've forgotten everything so quickly. Go find another opportunity to ask Senior Brother Shen for help later!" Cui Li said.

"what?"

Cui Fei was stunned; this change of expression was too fast.

Indeed, women are fickle.

Cui Li was glad that she had spoken cleverly that morning, claiming that her younger brother was restless and impatient. Even though Shen Ming understood the implication, she hadn't completely offended him.

After confirming that no Sky-Splitters were pursuing them, the large ship set sail again.

In the days that followed, the young talents of the Central Region were eager to discuss martial arts and swordsmanship with Shen Ming whenever they had the chance.

Shen Ming was pleased with this; the martial arts in the Central Region were flourishing, and there were many advanced concepts and insights that gave him a lot of inspiration.

Su Feng and the others were also amazed by Shen Ming's talent; no matter what they said, Shen Ming could understand it perfectly.

Sometimes, after they finished speaking, they were not satisfied with themselves, and then Shen Ming would say that he had figured it out.

With such comprehension, it's no wonder he has reached such a level.

"Senior Brother Shen, this is the Sword Heart Tea from my Cui family. It is a rare treasure that helps one comprehend the essence of swordsmanship."

Cui Li wanted Shen Ming to give her younger brother some pointers, so she invited Shen Ming to the tea room on the ship's deck and brought out her treasured possessions.

She exuded elegance in every word and action, sitting opposite Shen Ming while a maid prepared tea for them.

The aroma of tea filled the air, and she picked up the teacup and took a small sip.

Shen Ming picked up his teacup and drank it all in one gulp.

"..." Cui Li blinked, somewhat taken aback.

"Good tea, thank you Miss Cui. I have tea here too."

Thinking it was only right to reciprocate, Shen Ming took out a teapot from his storage bag, which contained the Enlightenment Tea brewed by Li Miaozhen.

He drank one and a half pots, but the improvement he gained was limited, so he had half left.

The maidservant from the Cui family couldn't help but chuckle. Who would serve guests tea that had already been brewed? It was completely against etiquette.

Cui Li glanced at the maid, feeling a bit strange, especially since the tea Shen Ming poured was still cold.

"Senior Brother Shen..."

She enjoys tea, which was a bit hard for her to accept, but before she could finish speaking, the faint aroma of tea wafted over, making her feel comfortable and refreshed.

"Enlightenment Tea!"

She disregarded her composure and cried out repeatedly.

This is even more precious than Sword Heart Tea; it's not something ordinary geniuses in the Central Region can enjoy.

Shen Ming just put it in the kettle!

Cui Li didn't have time to think about these things. She picked up her teacup, intending to take a small sip, but then she remembered how Shen Ming had been guzzling tea.

Could this be the tea-tasting tradition of the Northern Regions?!

Thinking of this, Cui Li struggled for a moment, then drank it all in one gulp.

The cold tea may lack flavor, but the profound mystery contained within the tea of ​​enlightenment has benefited her immensely.

"Thank you very much, Senior Brother Shen!"

"You're welcome. Your Sword Heart Tea has also given me some inspiration," Shen Ming said.

That's the truth. Sword Heart Grass is not as good as Enlightenment Tea, but that's assuming Shen Ming didn't drink that much Enlightenment Tea.

After drinking a cup of Sword Heart Grass, I immediately felt that I had gained a lot of insight into sword intent.

Similar things happened when Shen Ming interacted with other people.

After a few days, these people from the Central Region reached a consensus: "The prodigies of the Northern Region should not be underestimated!"

……

Time flies, and on this day, Shen Ming was admiring the scenery at the bow of the boat.

A blurry blue appeared in my vision, merging with the sky at the distant horizon.

Shen Ming guessed what it was, and his heart skipped a beat.

As the ship continued to move forward, the outline of the land gradually became clearer.

The other people on deck were shouting excitedly. Even though the ship had all the facilities, the three-month journey could still feel boring.

There's nowhere to go on the vast ocean.

Shen Ming was just as excited, even more so than the others.

I'm finally back!

"Senior Brother Su, Miss Cui, everyone, I have urgent business to attend to and must take my leave first."

Unable to contain his impulse, Shen Ming bid farewell to the people on the boat, broke the seal, and crossed the water.

Before anyone on the boat could stop her, Cui Li looked at Zhang Yuyan with a resentful gaze.

It turned out that ever since Shen Ming drew his sword that day, Zhang Yuyan had become like a lovesick fool, clinging to him relentlessly. One day, amidst thunder and lightning, she even ran to Shen Ming's room, feigning coquettishness.

Shen Ming immediately gave him his room.

The fact that they left in such a hurry now suggests that they could have gone to Kowloon City together, but they were probably annoyed with Zhang Yuyan and didn't want to continue the awkwardness on the way.

Zhang Yuyan had no awareness of her mistake and was secretly annoyed as she watched Shen Ming's retreating figure.

She had never met anyone so difficult to deal with. She was the dream girl of many people, but in Shen Ming's eyes, she was a monster.
