Sword Riding the Void

Under the Demon Wolf Peak, the peaceful and peaceful village has disappeared. The villagers’ plain faces are full of sadness. The houses that were patchwork before are now a little dilapidated, with ruins and broken tiles everywhere. Only there were rows of new graves in the open space not far from the village. It has been three months since the flying silver wolf attacked the village.During these three months, earth-shaking changes have taken place in the small village. Many women put down their needles and threads and picked up long guns, and even those underage children put down their toys and picked up bows and arrows to go hunting, because their men, they His father had died in that incident, but life would go on no matter what.

"Ding Ding~~ Ding Ding~~" Amidst the continuous beating sound, Yi Tianxing sat by the stove and helped Uncle Hong pull the bellows vigorously.In the past three months, Yi Tianxing has also changed a lot, without the laughter and playfulness of the past, without the relaxation and carrying of the past, but more mature and stable than his age , and even occasionally a trace of determination can be seen from his still immature face.

"The fire is too small, make it bigger!" Uncle Hong's hoarse voice came, Yi Tianxing couldn't help speeding up the speed of pulling the bellows, a few bean-sized beads of sweat on his forehead slid down his handsome face , dripped on the hot iron, and white smoke rose.During these three months, Yi Tianxing spent a large part of his time with Uncle Hong, helping Uncle Hong pull the bellows to smelt iron.His mother, Liu Mengxin, was very busy and often couldn't take care of him. Because of that incident, many villagers were left with sequelae, even lifelong disabilities, just like the village chief Cai Zhong, although he saved his life, but the inner palace was injured and his meridians were blocked. He who was originally strong has become a little weak now, and has to go to Liu Mengxin to seek medical treatment every now and then.

"Little guy, it will be the end of the year in a few days! You are about to be seven years old!" Uncle Hong said while striking the iron, and at the same time glanced at Yi Tianxing with his cloudy eyes.

"En!" Yi Tianxing said softly, but the original rhythm in his hand suddenly stopped.Seven years old, in a few years, he will be seven years old.Seven years old is an extremely extraordinary year for all children on the mainland, and it can even determine the year of their lives.Because in this year, their soul swords will be awakened, and a large part of their future achievements will depend on the soul swords.Just like two people, one is a prince and aristocrat, but has no cultivation talent, and the other is a beggar on the street, but has shocking talent, then after a few decades, maybe the identities between the two of them will be completely reversed .On the mainland, the strong are respected, and force is paramount! ! !

"嗤嗤~~" As the hot iron was immersed in the cold water, a puff of white smoke curled up and filled the small room.

"Okay, let's call it a day!" Uncle Hong said slowly, looking at the nearly forged iron sword in his hand, and at the same time picked off the wine gourd from Bie's waist, raised his head and drank.

"Little guy, remember what I said, there is not only one way to become a strong man!" While drinking, Uncle Hong seemed a little slow and said, his cloudy eyes suddenly became deep, "The most important thing is Yes, you must have a strong heart!"

Today is the first day of the year, and the small village that used to be a bit quiet is also more festive, and there is a long-lost smile on the faces of the villagers.Yi Tianxing got up early in the morning, and then practiced sword in the yard. Since that incident, Yi Tianxing has been very serious about sword practice, and the time spent on sword practice has doubled , although they are still the most basic moves, they already have a good look.

"Hoo~~" He let out a long breath, Yi Tianxing looked up at the rising sun, a firm gaze flashed in his eyes, and at the same time, he held the long sword tightly with both hands.Today he did not go to practice sword outside the small village with Mu Ming, because he still has a very important thing to do today, something related to his fate.

"Tianxing, hurry up, it's almost time!" At this moment, an immature child's voice sounded outside the door, and at the same time, a somewhat chubby head protruded through the gap in the door. His son, Shen Qiu.

"Okay, I'll come right away!" Yi Tianxing adjusted his clothes, then put the sword on the wall beside him, took a deep breath, and walked out of the house.

Today, the village head, Cai Zhong, is going to test the power of the soul for all the children in the village up to the age of seven to see which children have the talent to become swordsmen. After all, the small village has limited resources, so it is natural to use those limited resources to the most talented Only in this way can the village have a strong hope.It didn't take long for the two of them to arrive at the village chief's house, where there were already about five or six children waiting.

"Ahem~~" After waiting for nearly half an hour, five or six children came in twos and threes, and then the village chief Cai Zhong walked out of the house slowly. Cai Zhong's physical condition is not as good as before. The originally burly and sturdy body has now become a little rickety, revealing a bit of the old.Cai Zhong is nearly 60 years old. For ordinary people with a lifespan of only a hundred years, he has already entered old age. Although his body functions are still very good due to years of practice, this serious injury completely knocked him back. If you lose the prototype, you probably won't have a chance to reach the rank of sword master in this life.

"I believe that you also know the purpose of coming today. You are the hope of the village in the future, especially this time the village has encountered such a heavy blow. After discussing with several old people in the village, I decided to leave that adult behind. I will use the money as a tuition fee, so that the most talented swordsman among you can study in the school in the town!" Cai Zhong glanced at the fourteen teenagers in front of him one by one, his eyes full of hope.

"I don't want to talk nonsense, let's come one by one!" Cai Zhong took out a black bead from his arms, the dark surface was very smooth, "put your hand on this bead, and at the same time concentrate on All attention is on this bead!"

Yi Tianxing knows that this bead is called a soul-testing bead, which can basically measure the strength of a person's soul power. The most important thing in cultivating a soul sword is the soul sword. The stronger the soul power, the stronger the talent for cultivation. ,vice versa.

The first child put his hand on the bead, and after a while, the originally black bead only slightly glowed with a red light, like the light of a firefly.Seeing this scene, Cai Zhong shook his head slightly, and the child was also very disappointed. Only when the light reaches above orange can he hope to become a swordsman. Obviously this child has not achieved it, but at this time Yi Tianxing's heart is He was so nervous that even his body trembled faintly.

"Next!" The children took turns putting their hands on the bead, but the result was extremely disappointing. The strongest one among the few only made the bead glow red with a hint of orange .

"Buzz~~" At this moment, when the fifth child put his hand on the bead, a bright orange light suddenly shone.

"Okay, okay!" Seeing this light, Cai Zhong also shouted, his face was full of joy.Orange, obviously this child's talent has reached the standard.And hearing Cai Zhong's words, the child was also excited, and his little face was full of smiles.

"It's Uncle Zhou's son!" Shen Qiu looked at the child and said in a low voice, with envy on his face.

"Next, Shen Qiu!" At this moment, Cai Zhong continued to shout.

"Bless the ancestors!" Shen Qiu said nervously, as if he was still muttering something.

"Put your hands on it and concentrate!" Seeing Shen Qiu's appearance, Cai Zhong shook his head and said, inevitably reminding him.And Shen Qiu put his hand on the bead nervously.

"Buzz~~" Just for a moment, the originally dark beads suddenly burst into an incomparably bright green color, and there was a blue color visible to the naked eye in the green color.At this moment, time seemed to be frozen, everyone's eyes were focused on the emerald green light, even Cai Zhong's eyes widened.

"Ancestor bless, it's actually blue, it's actually blue, hahaha~~" After a moment of silence, looking at the blue light, Cai Zhong actually started to dance, his originally calm face was blushing, and there was even a faint blush in his eyes. A few crystal clear teardrops appeared.

"Shen Qiu, okay, okay, your future soul sword is likely to be of the Xuan rank, even if it is not of the Xuan rank, at least it will be at the peak of the Huang rank!" Cai Zhong patted Shen Qiu's shoulder excitedly, as if seeing a piece of treasure.Xuan rank, that is only one out of a hundred people. Even if it is not Xuan rank, the soul sword at the peak of Huang rank is already very powerful. No matter what, Shen Qiu's talent is definitely outstanding.At this time, Shen Qiu was already dazzled by the sudden joy, and was standing blankly by the side, obviously not yet able to react.

"Okay, you go and rest first!" Cai Zhong calmed down the excitement and joy in his heart, and looked at Shen Qiu with an extra soft gaze, "Next!"

Seeing the people in front of him stepping forward one by one, Yi Tianxing's heart was extremely tense, even his breathing became heavy, his small hands were clasped tightly, and he didn't know the pain at all.And among the next few people, only one person made the soul-testing orb emit orange light, but it was only the most common orange light, and the rest were all red, that is to say, there will be ten people. Only three of them have the possibility to become swordsmen!

"Next, Yi Tianxing!" Cai Zhong looked at Yi Tianxing and said lightly.When he heard his name, Yi Tianxing took a deep breath, and then walked to Cai Zhong with firm steps, looking at the soul-testing orb in front of him, his heart fell into emptiness, he He knew that his dreams, ideals, and hopes were completely pinned on this little soul-testing bead at this moment.
