Spirit Emperor - C43

Although they were worried that the sword faction would come for revenge against the heavily injured, they were more concerned about Li Xun’s situation at this moment. When they saw that Qin Qing found out that Li Xun needed to go into closed door cultivation for a few days, all the elders stayed behind and took turns to keep watch for Li Xun. At a time like this, no one was allowed to disturb them.

For three consecutive days, Qin Qing refused to rest. Just like half a year ago, when he had been severely injured and unconscious, Li Xun had protected him and she had wanted to protect Li Xun as well. Since they couldn’t force her, they had no choice but to give up.

On the midnight of the fourth day, a loud “boom” was heard and everyone in the Dong Residence woke up from their daze. Li Xun finally woke up from his closed door cultivation. However, when he saw that the ground was littered with the corpses of wolves, he felt very sorry for Dong Bo Tong. Recalling the beautiful little lake from before, the transparent longsword that guided him in his training, Li Xun knew that he must have obtained a miraculous opportunity. He could only ask the old man about it. It was best not to reveal such a miraculous thing.

Qin Qing was the closest to Li Xun. When she saw Li Xun come out of the pool, she immediately rushed into his arms.

“Husband, I missed you so much.” This was truly the feeling of not seeing each other for one day. However, it seemed that Qin Qing saw Li Xun every day.

“Qing’er, I’m dirty and smelly now. Can you hold me after I clean up and change my clothes?”

“No, I want to carry her now.” Although Li Xun hadn’t left Qin Qing’s sight for the past few days, for the past few days, she had been unable to speak to Li Xun or even touch him. This caused Qin Qing to feel extremely tormented, and she had long gotten used to the feeling of being hugged by her lover every day.

The four elders who were guarding the area immediately rushed over. When they saw the sweet scene between the couple, they turned their heads in embarrassment. Soon, Elder Gu and the other elders also arrived.

“Cough cough. About that, Li Xun, Qin Qing, are you waiting for more sweet words? More people will arrive soon.” Elder Gu’s voice interrupted their happy time.

“Elder Gu, Elders, all of you are here as well.”

“Isn’t it all for the sake of guarding you, that ‘Illusory Sword Realm’ is what people training in the sword yearn to experience the most, we naturally can’t let anyone disturb your closed door cultivation this time.”

“Hehe, I’ll have to trouble the elders. Tomorrow, I’ll treat the elders to a meal to express my thanks.” Li Xun rubbed his head in embarrassment.

After chatting for a while, Dong Bo Tong and a few guards arrived along with Dong Nana, Tian Fen and Zhou Jie.

“Uncle Dong, I’m really sorry. I destroyed your garden. Tomorrow, I will definitely find someone to help you rebuild it.”

“Li Xun, it’s nothing but a garden. As long as you’re fine, it’s fine. As for the matter of retraining, I’ll let the butler handle it.”

“Father, we can’t just let it go like this. Senior brother, when we see senior Baili again in a while, you must speak up for me and have her call me a set of sword technique. ” Dong Nana was infatuated with Baili Feng’s swordsmanship.

“Alright, alright, I’ll definitely speak up for you when we get back.”

“Hehe, thank you senior brother.”

After taking a bath and changing into a fresh and clean set of clothes, Li Xun felt hungry. He hadn’t eaten for four days, so it would be strange if he wasn’t hungry. When he returned to his room, the table was already filled with all kinds of delicacies. Without saying anything further, Li Xun started to wolf down his food.

Seeing that Li Xun’s appetite was so good, Qin Qing was extremely happy.

“Husband, eat slowly. No one is going to fight with you for it. You’re like a child.”

“Yeah, it’s delicious. Oh right, Qing’er, I’ve been in closed-door cultivation for a few days.”

“Four days. I’m worried to death. ”

“It’s been four days, no wonder I’m so hungry. You’ve already lost weight, and have dark circles under your eyes. You definitely haven’t had a good rest in the past few days. ” Li Xun wiped his hands and looked at Qin Qing’s face.

“You can sleep with me all night.” With a blissful expression, Qin Qing rushed into Li Xun’s embrace.

“Qing’er, promise me that if I go back into secluded meditation, you’ll have to take good care of yourself. Otherwise, I won’t be able to rest in peace. Do you understand?”

“Yes.”

“That’s right, how was the match between Nana and Cheng Kun? Why didn’t I see Cheng Kun today? Is he alright?”

“Hehe, he’s fine. The two of them were so impressive that day …”

After hearing Qin Qing’s story, Li Xun calmed down.

“Qing’er, do you think that Na Na and Cheng Kun are very compatible?”

“Yeah, I think so too. Not just the two of them, but also Little Fen and Zhou Jie.”

“Well, we’re thinking of the same thing. Do you think we should find a chance to put them together? ”

“That’s good, but I feel that right now, it’s better to let them take it as they will. I think that they would definitely be more willing to put more of their energy into cultivation right now.”

“That’s true. You thought it through thoroughly.”

“Qing’er, you should go rest first. I have something to take care of so I’ll be going out first.” Li Xun said embarrassedly.

“Ah, it’s already so late, and you still want to go out? Didn’t you promise that you would carry me to sleep?” Qin Qing sighed slightly.

“I’ll make it up to you tomorrow. There’s still the day after tomorrow, okay?”

“There’s still the day after tomorrow, the day after that.” Qin Qing was extremely well-behaved and extremely understanding. She knew that Li Xun must have something very important for him to rush out like this, so she didn’t get entangled with him.

“Alright, I’ll be going then. You rest early.”

Li Xun didn’t immediately leave the Dong Residence and instead went to look for Elder Gu.

“Elder Gu, wake up. I’m Li Xun.”

Gu Mu had just fallen asleep not too long ago, and upon hearing Li Xun’s knock, he immediately woke up. “Li Xun, what are you doing here so late?”

“Elder Gu, you know that I’ve been in closed-door training for four days and have comprehended some things. I’m in a hurry to verify and see if it’s right or wrong.”

“Haha, I understand. Follow me.”

Elder Gu brought Li Xun with him as he sprinted all the way to the foot of a mountain on the eastern outskirts of Songcheng.

“Alright, it’s very safe here. No one will come and disturb us.”

“Elder Gu, I made my move.” As he spoke, Li Xun took out his Soul Sword. It was a Rainbow Soul Sword without any sword skills or gems.

Elder Gu was also a Rainbow Soul Sword without a sword skill gem, but if one looked carefully, they would discover that his Soul Sword’s color wasn’t as bright as Li Xun’s.

The two of them fought without any fancy moves, yet in the end, they were evenly matched and each took three steps back. Elder Gu was secretly alarmed. He was already at the peak of the eleventh step, while Li Xun was not even a mid-Tenth Order warrior, yet he had only fought him to a standstill in terms of strength.

“Elder Gu, be careful now. Look at my latest comprehension.”

He saw Li Xun raise his sword with one hand, and with a series of hissing sounds, Elder Gu noticed Li Xun swing his sword like a wave. Elder Gu didn’t wait any longer and attacked Li Xun with Immortal Shows the Way. Li Xun raised his sword and rushed forward without any posturing. Every time the two swords collided, Li Xun would have a slight tug. In the end, Elder Gu’s Immortal Shows the Way was only half used and he was unable to continue. He felt a great suction force constantly pulling at his Soul Sword, causing him to lose half of his original appearance as a result. Furthermore, there was also a small force that bounced back.

Elder Gu seemed to have seen something, but he still needed to confirm it. “Look at my technique, ‘Power Breaks the Thousand Jin’.” This move was extremely powerful and imposing. However, Li Xun didn’t dodge, and it was still the same method as before. The result made Li Xun very satisfied. Breaking through a thousand jin of strength was still not enough to continue. Elder Gu was a bit depressed. Although he knew it was definitely Li Xun’s doing, he didn’t understand. Thus, he stopped and asked, “Li Xun, is this the sword move that you had just mastered and how did you do it?”

“Elder Gu, this is not a sword move, but a type of force exerting technique. “Let’s try out the sword aura.”

Elder Gu didn’t say much. Today, he was just here to accompany Li Xun to prove himself. He would do whatever he said and he would cooperate with him.

“Heavenly Mountain Cross Slash.”

Accompanied by a slight sound of tearing through the air, a cross blade made of air rotated and attacked Li Xun. He saw Li Xun raise his sword and move forward. He used the sword to catch the cross blade and after three turns and two turns, Li Xun struck the cross blade back.

“This.” Elder Gu dodged the cross-shaped Qi blade and stood still on the spot. The scene just now was truly unbelievable. “If my cross blade had been knocked back by a Twelfth Stage expert, that would have been reasonable. However, now it has been sent back back by someone one level lower than me. This is quite a blow to me.” Li Xun, how did you do it? ”

“This is what I comprehended that day in the ‘Illusory Sword Realm’. It’s a skill that relies on the combination of the body and the soul sword. Elder Gu, this is a kind of feeling that can only be described with words. At that time, I had a very hazy feeling about that kind of body. It was also because I subconsciously felt that I needed to go into the water to deepen my comprehension. That’s why I was able to stay in the pool for the past few days. Believe me, I didn’t mean not to tell you. Oh right, there’s one more point. I feel that this is related to my Wood-type Physique, but I still need to slowly explore the specifics. I have given this skill of force exertion a name of ‘Shui Mu Rou Sword’. ”

“Hehe, you don’t have to be troubled about this. I completely believe what you said. If the Supreme Sword Dao of the Illusory Sword Realm were to be taught verbally, then it wouldn’t be considered the supreme treasure that we cultivators dream of. Li Xun, I am truly envious of you, you have just reached the Tenth Order at the age of twenty, and have even mastered such a supreme technique at the Illusory Sword Realm, I really don’t know how to describe you. To hide it from you, I am at the peak of the eleventh step in strength, but now that I have met you, whether it’s sword moves or sword Qis, you have suppressed them, I think you will be able to handle someone below the twelfth step. ”

Li Xun was naturally very happy. He never thought that he would actually have such an opportunity to grasp a technique that could allow him to challenge someone beyond his level. Moreover, he could feel that this technique was not perfect.

“Elder Gu, thank you very much.”

“Haha, Li Xun, it’s the same for you. I thank you as well. Thank you for trusting me so much and for finding me to test your skills.”

Normally, when everyone grasped a new sword move or sword skill, if they wanted to know the actual effect of the fight, they would have to find someone they trusted more.

“Hehe, Elder Gu, then please accompany me for a while longer. I feel like I’m still a bit unfamiliar when I use the Water Wood Flexible Sword.”

“Alright, you have to be careful. I’ll have to go all out now.”

Knowing that Li Xun had a consummate skill like the Flexible Sword of Water Wood, Gu Mu did not hold back. He wanted to do his best to let Li Xun experience the advantages and disadvantages of the Flexible Sword of Water Wood. For the current Li Xun, whether it was practicing the Flexible Sword of Water Wood or improving his combat ability, an expert like Elder Gu was something he could only wish for.
