Heaven Slaughtering Sword God - Chapter 29
As the number one on the Heavenly Rankings, Chen Xuanliang was a famous talisman master in the Greencloud City, and he practically represented authority in the guild.
Lin Jian was well aware of this point, yet he still dared to say such words, so naturally, he chose to retreat in order to advance.
“That’s for the best.”
“This matter shall come to an end.”
Master Chen looked at Lin Jian, and said something within the words: “This old one has also heard of the matter between you and Wan’er, it is merely a battle of words, young people have high spirits, this old one can understand that, but since you have already entered the Charm Association, and will be a part of the association in the future, we will meet again in the future, there is no need to make our relationship too awkward, today this old one will mediate between the two, are you willing to let go of the grudge with Wan’er?”
Then, he laughed and teased, “A man shouldn’t haggle with a girl, right?”
“…”
Lin Jian was quiet for a moment, then nodded his head: “I came to the guild only to study the Runic Dao, to improve my own cultivation, and do not want to cause trouble, as long as Gongsun Waner keeps her promise, everything between us, will naturally be written off, and there is nothing to pursue.”
Receiving this reply, Master Chen nodded his head in satisfaction and looked towards Gongsun Waner.
The woman knew what her master meant. Although she was conflicted, she did not want to say anything else. She lowered her head and nodded.
“Good.”
The Master Chen laughed and said, “You two are genius talismans have only appeared in the past hundred years of my Cyan Cloud Sect. Since you two are safe and sound, that would be for the best.”
Saying that, the Master Chen waved his hand, and a deacon immediately walked up behind him with a plate. On top of the tray was the reward for passing the Low-rank Charm Magician Assessment, which was different from the other Charm Magician s.
“According to the rules of the guild, every outstanding seed who has passed the potential test is eligible to receive the guidance of a master. If you are willing, you can be considered an honorary disciple under this old man’s name.” Master Chen looked at Lin Jian with a smile and asked.
“Honorary disciple?”
Lin Jian raised his brows, as if he was surprised.
Master Chen said: “I have seen the talismans you refined, although they were average, all the different talismans were crafted using the most basic three-way carving method. If I am not mistaken, you have not grasped any kind of high grade carving method, right? If you are willing to become my honorary disciple, this old one is willing to give you all the knowledge I have in this area.
“Since the master has such good intentions, I won’t be courteous.”
Lin Jian thought for a while, and the truth was indeed like that, and happily accepted it.
However …
But when he thought about it again, if he became the Master Chen’s disciple, wouldn’t that mean he would become Gongsun Waner’s junior brother?
Lin Jian subconsciously glanced at Gongsun Waner, and the latter was also looking straight into his eyes. However, because Lin Jian was wearing a mask, Gongsun Waner could not see his expression clearly. After looking at her for a while, she did not know what was going through her mind.
“Haha, that’s great.”
He patted Lin Jian’s shoulders and said: “Today’s matters are too busy, if Master is going to neglect this for now, I might as well let your senior sister Gongsun Waner take you to take a look inside the Charm Association. If you need anything, just say it directly.”
After Lin Jian heard this, he felt a little awkward in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Gongsun Waner took a deep breath, and didn’t resist, “Yes, Teacher.”
Seeing that, Lin Jian followed her and left the Wanxiang Pagoda.
Behind him were countless shocked gazes.
They were obviously still immersed in the shock of Lin Jian reaching first place on the Earth Board. It was only when both his and Lin Jian’s figures had disappeared did they finally wake up from the shock.
On the other side, the two of them walked out of the Wanxiang Pagoda courtyard. Just as they walked out, Gongsun Waner stopped in her tracks, turned around, and with a twist of her slim waist, a look of mixed feelings appeared in her eyes. She gave Lin Jian a deep look, and without saying a word, left immediately.
Lin Jian rubbed his nose. He was not surprised by her actions. In fact, if Gongsun Waner really wanted to take him on a stroll inside the guild, then it would be an unbelievable scene.
“Today, I have obtained the Twilight Flower and can go back to cultivate the Wood Elemental Sword Art and the Fire Elemental Sword Art. With these two sword moves, not only will my strength increase, I will also have more confidence in cultivating Mortal Realm in the future!” Lin Jian exhaled a breath of air, he was anxious and left the Charm Association, rushing straight for Violet Bamboo Pavilion.
Evening, inside the Violet Bamboo Pavilion.
Lin Jian held the cold ice sword in his hand and sat crossed legged on the ground. In front of him were three potted plants, on top of which were budding Ephemeral Flowers.
This sort of spiritual object would only bloom and wither the moment it saw light.
It was precisely at that moment that a large amount of life force and the meaning of plants and vegetation were formed. It could help Lin Jian absorb and comprehend the Wooden Elemental Sword Technique, but there was a need to know when the sword would blossom in order to obtain the greatest amount of energy.
“Remember, you can only open the window at sunrise, okay?”
Lin Jian looked at Xiao Sanzi and asked.
“Understood, Young Master!”
Xiao Sanzi squatted in front of the black window and felt the darkness around him, as though he was afraid and shrunk his neck, but after hearing Lin Jian’s words, he immediately became alert.
Lin Jian nodded, he calmed his heart and breath, then activated his cultivation technique and waited for sunrise.
Finally, with a creaking sound!
The wooden window was pushed open, and a fiery red sunlight shone in from outside, shining onto the three Ephemeral Flowers. In that instant, the three flower buds trembled, and then suddenly bloomed, and beautiful flower petals spread out. The tender stamens of the flowers swayed gently in the wind, accompanied by a rich fragrance, and the beauty of that moment was enough to make anyone unable to forget it for the rest of their lives.
“He’s coming.”
Lin Jian took a deep breath, and the wings of his nose slightly bulged, like a whale sucking in water.
Xiao Sanzi could not help but hold his breath, he saw that his young master’s breath had already turned into two streams of white Qi, mixed with a lot of green, in a moment, the fragrance of the flowers inside the room actually disappeared without a trace.
As for the three extremely beautiful Ephemeral Flowers, they suddenly withered up and withered away.
“As expected of the young master, his breathing is so amazing!”
Xiao Sanzi secretly thought in his heart, and then quietly left the house, afraid that he would disturb Lin Jian’s cultivation.
After a few hours, Lin Jian had completed his comprehension of the Wooden Element Sword Technique.
In his previous life, he was already familiar with sword moves, but because of their unique attributes, he was unable to use them directly. Now that he had the will of nature as an inducement, it was natural for him to master them once again.
“Next is the Fire Elemental Sword Technique.”
Lin Jian let out a breath, felt the vitality in his body, and took out the Fire Essence Intent Crystal.
spent the entire two days training his sword.
As for the Wood Elemental Sword Art and the Fire Elemental Sword Art, both had been completely grasped by him. His battle prowess had greatly improved, and it could be said that he was completely different from the him from two days ago.
Let’s put it this way. Although the current Lin Jian was still unable to face the Mortal Realm head on, if it was only taking three of his strikes, then Lin Jian would no longer need to borrow the help of any external objects. With only the Frozen End Sword in his hand, he could directly block his final strike and suffer at most some light injuries.
And on the day that he came out of seclusion, Lin Jian’s message jade slip suddenly trembled.
This is his jade chip as the spirit of Charm Magician.
The person who sent the letter, was Gongsun Waner. She was invited to the Charm Association, firstly, to deliver the bet regarding the duel, and secondly, to teach Chen Xuanliang on how to seal talismans.
“Looks like I have to make a trip.”
Lin Jian put on the mask and left the Violet Bamboo Pavilion.
