Chapter 64 Uninvited Guest
Chen Xin eventually left, and a simple book quietly sat in the spot where he had been sitting.
Compared to Ning Fengzhi's constant scheming, Chen Xin's style of doing things is more direct and simple.
This sword manual is both a legacy he entrusted to Gu Xuan, hoping he would accept it, and compensation he gave to Gu Xuan.
As an elder himself, since he had been biased in the past, he needed to make amends. Whether Gu Xuan accepted it or not was another matter, but his attitude had to be made clear.
Looking at the sword manual that didn't resemble a sword manual at all, Gu Xuan suddenly smiled with relief.
After all these years, he knows very well what kind of person Chen Xin is.
This sword technique is really just an ordinary sword technique; it doesn't involve much thought or effort.
"Sword cultivators are truly pure-hearted."
Gu Xuan smiled with relief.
Chen Xin's care for him was no less than his care for Ning Rongrong; at least before Gu Rong regained consciousness, Chen Xin, as Gu Rong's grandfather, was more responsible than Gu Rong.
The reason why Chen Xin seems to favor Ning Rongrong is entirely because Chen Xin knows that Ning Rongrong has caused trouble that she cannot bear.
But so what?
We can't just push Ning Rongrong off the mountain, can we?
But why only lock them up for three days? Is that any different from no punishment at all?
Gu Xuan could never forgive Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin for this.
"Alright, I'll accept this sword manual for your sake, as payment for saving your life in the future."
Gu Xuan waved his hand, took the Seven Kill Sword Manual, and turned the pages.
In an instant, a sword intent emanated from the pages of the book, as if every word and every illustration was engraved on them with a sword.
In the distance, Chen Xin, who was traveling on his sword with his back to Bone Peak, felt a subtle sword intent coming from behind him and his lips curled up slightly, revealing a look of satisfaction on his face.
His Seven Kills lineage finally has a successor.
In a good mood, he accelerated and disappeared into the sky.
For Bone Peak, a week had passed in the blink of an eye.
Gu Xuan held a longsword formed from flames in his hand, and the essentials of the Seven Kill Sword Technique kept emerging in his mind. His whole body moved and shifted in accordance with the changes in the illustrations.
With a flick of his flaming longsword, sword energy surged forth.
The Seven Kill Sword Technique emphasizes decisiveness, showing no mercy and never giving oneself or the enemy a chance to back down.
Its domineering nature surpasses even that of the Haotian Hammer.
If it weren't for the Clear Sky Hammer's cheating abilities like the Exploding Ring and the Great Sumeru Hammer, the Seven Kill Sword and Seven Kill Sword Technique's domineering power would probably dictate the name of the world's number one weapon spirit.
"kill!"
A cold glint flashed in Gu Xuan's eyes, and he swiftly swung his longsword, creating a massive sword-qi killing character that materialized out of thin air amidst the crisscrossing sword energy.
Then, with Gu Xuan pointing his flaming longsword, the word "kill" instantly attacked Afu, who was watching from the side.
"break!"
Seeing the sword energy attack coming towards him, Afu raised his hand and condensed a giant fiery claw to strike it.
The two collided rapidly, creating an explosion right between them, and a powerful shockwave swept outwards instantly.
At the same time, fine sword energy intertwined and spread out within the shockwave.
boom!
Gu Xuan remained motionless, the flames swirling around him, forming a protective shield around him.
"How are you feeling?"
After the impact subsided, Gu Xuan sheathed his flaming sword and protective shield and walked towards Afu.
As the battle intensified, Gu Xuan moved his training location out of the courtyard and found a place full of rocks to practice.
This place has become a ruin because of their frequent battles, and it doesn't need to be maintained after the battles are over.
"Young Master's Seven Kill Sword Technique is already quite good. Once unleashed, it is enough to rival the vast majority of Soul Masters. This is only because the Young Master has only practiced it for a short time. If the Young Master practices it seriously in the future, he may achieve even greater success."
After thinking for a moment, Afu said seriously.
Gu Xuan was originally able to contend with the Soul Sect using only his physical skills, but now, after practicing the Seven Kill Sword Technique, his combat power has increased slightly.
Without using the Dragon Talisman, it is already possible to defeat the vast majority of Soul Masters.
Although the improvement was not significant, it was clear that Gu Xuan had a talent for swordsmanship.
"It's a pity that the young master did not inherit the sword spirit of your wife. Otherwise, with the young master's talent, his achievements in swordsmanship would definitely surpass those of the Sword Douluo in the future."
Ye Xinlan waved her hand, and a healing light fell on Gu Xuan. At the same time, she couldn't help but sigh.
She had personally witnessed Gu Xuan's talent. From a complete novice in swordsmanship to now being able to perform the basic Killing Sword Technique, his progress was as fast as a rocket.
It's a pity that the heavens are jealous of talent, and Gu Xuan was only given a Saint Lord Martial Soul. If Gu Xuan's Martial Soul were a sword, coupled with his unique swordsmanship talent, surpassing Chen Xin in the future would have been a sure thing.
Neither she nor Ye Lengleng knew how powerful the Holy Lord Gu Xuan was. After all, Gu Xuan had only demonstrated physical combat skills, and the only thing they had seen about the Holy Lord's abilities was his control over flames.
In their minds, a gifted swordsman is far superior to one who can control flames, compared to fire.
"Alright, that's enough for today. By the way, did you find the thing I asked you to look for?"
Gu Xuan dusted himself off and led the two out of the training area, asking Afu a question at the same time.
"It's ready, but the portraits are all from several years ago."
Afu took out two scrolls and handed them to Guxuan.
"A few years ago is fine, as long as they're not too young."
Gu Xuan opened a scroll and smiled as he looked at the portrait inside.
Since the talismans were no longer available as an inexhaustible source of energy, Gu Xuan's cultivation output has decreased significantly, and now he can only maintain a slightly higher cultivation efficiency than ordinary soul masters.
According to his current estimate, it will take at least two months to break through to level 28.
This would be considered a rapid pace of progress for most people, but for Gu Xuan, it was still somewhat disappointing.
I miss the talisman when it's not around!
"Young Master, Young Master, come quickly and prepare dinner."
As soon as they arrived at the courtyard, Dugu Yan pulled Ye Lengling aside and waved to Gu Xuan, who was returning.
Since Gu Xuan's dog and horse talisman disappeared, Dugu Yan no longer had to experience that feeling of dying and coming back to life.
I was exhausted from training just now, but the next second I was full of energy and enthusiasm again.
Although the improvement was significant, the torment was real. Now that she no longer had the power of the talisman, her training volume had also decreased.
With Ye Lengleng as her friend, she became even happier.
Under Dugu Yan's guidance, Ye Lengleng gradually regained some of her vitality.
"Hmm, what kind of food have you prepared?"
Since refusing the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's offerings, Gu Xuan has become self-sufficient, eating ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts from the Sunset Forest and soaking in top-grade hot springs made from rare herbs from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire.
Even so, it still took him two months to advance one level, which shows just how effective the dog talisman was in cultivation.
"I just made something quick, as long as Lingling's cooking skills are still good."
Dugu Yan patted Ye Lengleng's shoulder; she couldn't possibly make these kinds of dishes.
As for Ye Lengleng, it was entirely due to the characteristics of her martial soul that she had an extremely high talent for things like medicinal cuisine.
"Young Master, please eat first. We will go and prepare the medicinal bath for you."
Ye Xinlan and Afu exchanged a glance, then left the front yard and headed towards the back yard.
Ye Lengleng and Dugu Yan, on the other hand, enjoyed the medicinal meals with Gu Xuan, which could enhance their cultivation speed and strengthen their foundation.
This is considered a benefit for our own people.
As for Afu?
His grandson is ten years older than Gu Xuan, they can't play together at all, they're not meant to be.
The three took their seats, and Gu Xuan took the lead in launching the attack.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lengleng were not to be outdone.
These are all good things; they may not eat much, but they're mainly here to create an atmosphere.
Ye Lengleng, in particular, knew all too well the value of this table of food. If this entire meal were sold, it would probably be worth over a hundred thousand gold soul coins.
Every bite they took was a small improvement for them.
It was precisely because they knew the value of these things that Ye Xinlan and Ye Lengleng were truly convinced.
Just as the three were enjoying this wonderful time, an uninvited guest suddenly barged in.
Gu Xuan's originally amiable expression instantly turned cold.
