Spirit Emperor

At night, the bright moon hung high in the sky. In the training field of the Skysoul Institute, there were still some disciples who came to practice after dinner. It was unknown when Li Xun had disappeared from the Martial Arts Practice Field, so no one was surprised.

At this moment, Li Xun had once again arrived at the usual cave. The old man was not there, and Li Xun did not look for him. Actually, this old man only spent a very small amount of time in the Heavenly Court every month. Only Li Xun knew about this, but he didn't know where this old man had gone to.

Li Xun still roasted the fish and drank a mouthful of wine. Without making any unnecessary movements, he began to meditate and cultivate the Heaven's Fury Heart Sutra right after he finished eating the fish.

In the Sword Soul Continent, people did not pay much attention to mental cultivation methods, because they felt that the higher the cultivation method, the better the physique, the stronger the Qi, and when facing enemies, the endurance would also be stronger. Of course, the higher the cultivation method, the more destructive one's sword moves would be, but their strength would also be limited. However, the reality was that a youth who knew a Silver rank sword move could definitely kill an old man who didn't know a Silver rank sword move. The time the two of them spent cultivating their mental cultivation method was definitely not on the same level.

Li Xun had also read some notes. When he told this old man about this thought. The old man gave him a painful beating, then told him, when someone wants to kill you, if he doesn't have the strength, then he can find more people to surround you, fight you, slowly wear you down. What can you do?

Li Xun immediately thought of Uncle Dao. Back then, when the killers fought Uncle Dao, they had to fight in a revolving battle. Although Uncle Dao was powerful personally, in the middle of the night, he did not kill many killers, but he himself was half dead tired and had to lure the killers away by himself. From that day onwards, Li Xun trained his mental cultivation method to an even greater extent than the time he spent practicing the Non-Phase Sword Art. Regarding this, the old man did not cause any trouble for him. Actually, even though Li Xun was often in a daze, he was also cultivating the Heavenly Fury Scripture at the same time. This was the advantage of the Heaven's Fury Heart Sutra. As long as one used it as a snack, the Heaven's Fury Heart Sutra would automatically circulate within one's body.

The new day had arrived, and on this day, it was obvious that everyone was up very early. This was because everyone knew that no matter if they had the strength or not, they would still have the chance to challenge Li Xun. As long as they won the challenge, they would have the opportunity to experience a gold-level sword technique. But over the past ten years, no one had been able to break through Li Xun's defense. Although no one held any hope, people were just so weird, hoping for a miracle to happen.

When the sun had just risen, Li Xun arrived at the center of the square. A bowl full of water was already placed on the tree stump in the middle of the ring. If you want to challenge me early, don't disturb my practice of the sword. " Li Xun said coolly. At the same time, the black longsword that was 2.5 meters long appeared in his hand.

"Spatial ring?" Dong Nana was surprised.

"Junior Sister Nana, don't be surprised. The spatial ring on Senior Brother Li Xun's hand is indeed, that's why we don't believe that he doesn't have a soul sword. Otherwise, how can he protect such a precious treasure in the future?"

The value of a spatial ring exceeded the value of a single Golden Sword Art. Golden Sword Techniques were very rare, and there were many small sword sects that relied on just a few Golden Sword Techniques to create their own, showing the value of a spatial ring.

"Senior Brother Li Xun, I want to challenge." Dong Nana was the first to walk up to him.

"Make your move."

"Senior Brother, can I use any method?" You can also use sword skills. "

"You talk too much. Make your move, and use your full strength."

Dong Nana looked at the icy cold Li Xun and was slightly angry. She held the Three Treasures Yellow Rank sword in her hand. "All three of the treasures are open, and the Mysterious Woman's Heart Piercing Drill is open — Break." The three gems on the longsword in Dong Nana's hands glowed brightly as she started spinning horizontally in the air with her sword. Sword Qi was already faintly emanating from the tip of her sword, and the power of this attack was already close to that of a Gold rank sword move. The standard for measuring whether or not a Gold rank sword move reached it was whether or not the sword move was accompanied by sword Qi.

Everyone nervously looked at Dong Nana, hoping to witness the miracle. Even for an old disciple like Zhang Shuai, he had never seen such a powerful sword skill before. He was a bit nervous in his heart, hoping that someone would break through Li Xun's defense, but not wanting Li Xun to fail at the hands of a disciple other than the Heavenly Academy.

Ding. A crisp sound rang out. Dong Nana lay limply on the ground. She had used all her strength in that attack, but she had only seen her sword and Li Xun's sword touch each other once before her attack was easily blocked. It had the smell of an egg hitting a rock, and it seemed even worse.

Zhou Jie and the others looked at Zhang Shuai and the others in disbelief. As for Zhang Shuai and the others, they smiled helplessly. Obviously, they were telling the four of them that this was normal.

"Someone help her down. Next."

"Hmph, what are you pretending for." At the same time that Qin Qing and Tian Fen went to help Dong Nana, Cheng Kun went up to challenge Li Xun.

Cheng Kun knew that in terms of killing with one strike, he would definitely not be able to match the power of Dong Nana's previous move. Cheng Kun's specialty was speed. He wanted to draw Li Xun's attention, and after finding a flaw, he would break the water bowl with one strike. Thus, Cheng Kun started to circle around Li Xun and sneak attack Shui Wan from time to time. However, Cheng Kun gradually realized that his plan was completely a tragedy. Li Xun's sword was simply too long. With just a casual wave, he could block Cheng Kun's sneak attack with all his strength. A 2.5 metre long heavy sword coupled with Li Xun's arms, how large was the defensive perimeter?

Running fast consumed a lot of energy. After half an hour, Cheng Kun stopped. It was unknown how many times their swords had come into contact, but every time they had come into contact, it had ended in Cheng Kun's failure. The two of them were in completely different states. Cheng Kun was already breathing heavily, and Li Xun didn't even sweat.

"You can leave now. Next."

"No, I still have one more Silver rank sword skill, but it's useless." Cheng Kun roared stubbornly.

"With your current condition, if you don't want to die, you can send it out and try."

After hearing Li Xun's humiliating words, Cheng Kun didn't know whether to endure or not, and still didn't have the courage to use it. If he were to use a sword skill now, it would really be considered fighting with his life on the line. As long as it was a rational person, they would not make such a choice.

Following that, Zhou Jie, Tian Fen, Zhang Shuang, and the others also went up to challenge him. However, they were quickly defeated.

"Sister Qing, why don't you go challenge him?" Tian Fen asked mischievously.

"Heh heh, since neither of you are able to do it, I will naturally not do it either. I won't go and embarrass myself."

"Alright, Sister Qing. You mean that we'll lose face if we go up?"

"Little girl, you're actually teasing me. I've turned against you." The two of them were actually fighting in the martial arts practice field. This made most of the boys in the practice field salivate. They wished that they could join in on the fun.

"If no one comes up to challenge me, I'll just practice my sword." Li Xun didn't wait for anyone to reply and directly started practicing his sword, slashing without restraint.

The morning's challenge didn't take too long. It took everyone an hour, but Cheng Kun alone took half an hour. On the other hand, Li Xun continued to wave the long sword and practiced until it was time for dinner before he left. Whether it was physical or mental, Zhou Jie and the others were all shocked.

During dinner time, Zhou Jie and the others sat down at the same table as Commander Zhang.

"Senior Brother Zhang Shuai, is Senior Brother Li Xun usually like this?" Zhou Jie asked in confusion.

"Not bad, very strange. Actually, none of us understand it. However, we all felt that it would definitely be beneficial to senior brother. Merely, we did not understand the profoundness behind it."

"Senior Brother Li Xun sure has perseverance. Moreover, his strength must be extremely great. He definitely spent a lot of time cultivating this mental cultivation method. That long sword must be very heavy. But senior brother just kept waving it around for the whole day without stopping." Tian Fen sighed.

"Indeed, senior apprentice-brother's perseverance is truly astonishing." Qin Qing sighed.

During the meal, everyone surrounded Li Xun and chatted as they ate, feeling extremely happy.

The following month, everyone practiced, trained, challenged, and went through the motions. Li Xun's defense was still unassailable. However, Zhou Jie's team of five had all received a Silver level sword technique, which made them extremely excited. After all, even though they were loved by their masters, they only knew two Silver level sword moves.
