After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 919 The Sword Platform on the Fifth Floor, the Spirit Herb Rhodiola Rosea!
"damned!"

Yang Wenguang held two stones in his hands, his face filled with anger, as if he wished he could tear the person who destroyed the sword monument to pieces.

"If you're going to comprehend the sword, then so be it! Why did you have to destroy the sword monument? You deserve to die!"

Yang Wenguang gritted his teeth and it took him a while to calm himself down.

"Not a single piece left?"

Chen Yang was also very frustrated. He hadn't even come up to see the fourth floor yet, and now it was ruined like this. It was as if they were deliberately trying to make things difficult for him.

He had originally planned to visit the fourth level and use the sword intent there to consolidate his cultivation in the third realm. Perhaps, influenced by the sword intent, his state of mind could take another step forward and advance to the Dao True Realm.

In this way, as long as one's mind enters the true Tao, everything will be easy to discuss.

Lu Feiyu's behavior of "biting the hand that feeds him" is simply worse than that of an animal.

He's lucky to be dead.

"Of the twenty-three sword tablets, not one remains; they are all destroyed, and not a single one is usable."

Yang Wenguang shook his head, feeling a sharp pain in his heart, as if a knife were cutting into his flesh. If it weren't for Chen Yang's presence, he probably would have cursed out loud.

"Have you caught that person? Who is he?" Yang Wenguang asked immediately.

Chen Yang shook his head. "That person ran too fast. The forest behind the mountain is dense, and he got lost. However, this person is quite strong. He has probably already entered the Dao True Realm."

He had already thought about it on his way back.

It's best not to tell Yang Wenguang about this.

Lu Feiyu is a member of the Shennong Sect. How could the Yang family possibly afford to offend the Shennong Sect now?
In addition, Chen Yang was also doing it for himself.

Lu Feiyu is dead, so it's enough for him to know this alone. It's not that he doesn't trust Yang Wenguang, but if the Yang family is still angry and wants to seek an explanation from the Shennong Sect, and spreads this matter, even if they deliberately try to absolve themselves, the people of the Shennong Sect aren't stupid, and they will definitely be able to trace the clues back to him.

Therefore, to avoid future troubles, don't tell them about this in the first place.

Let them think the person ran away. Anyway, they don't know the other party's identity. Yang Wenguang was angry, but he got over it.

"Ran?"

Yang Wenguang paused, but seeing that Chen Yang had only brought back the eight-winged centipede, he knew that the person must have run away. Could it be that Chen Yang could have killed the person?
The Dao Realm exists! Yang Wenguang himself has only just broken through to the Creation Realm.

He doesn't even know who the other person is, so who can he seek revenge against? And what can he use to take revenge?

In a fit of anger, all one can do is vent one's anger.

Faced with this situation, Yang Wenguang seems to have no choice but to accept his fate; he has to swallow his pride whether he likes it or not.

Chen Yang said, "Grandpa, try to think more positively."

Yang Wenguang nodded slightly, forcing a smile. "The wind blows the eggshell away, and though the wealth is gone, the people are at peace. It's good that the things are destroyed, but that everyone is safe."

Thinking about it carefully, he still felt a little sad.

Fortunately, Chen Yang and the others were there. It must have been the appearance of the eight-winged centipede that alerted that person; otherwise, that person might not have been able to escape.

He also knows how to find joy in hardship and how to comfort himself.

If I hadn't scared him away today, I fear I would have met with bad luck if I had come up here alone in the future and encountered this person again.

Looking back, I can't help but feel a little scared.

Chen Yang said, "The sword monument is destroyed, so that person probably won't come back. As for the fifth floor..."

He looked towards the stairwell leading to the fifth floor.

Yang Wenguang shook his head, "There's only a sword platform on the fifth floor, no sword tablet, so it's useless..."

"Oh?"

Chen Yang was somewhat surprised upon hearing this, "Can we go up and take a look? Maybe someone is hiding there again."

"I've checked. It's fine up there. The sword platform is still there."

As Yang Wenguang spoke, he led Chen Yang directly up to the fifth floor.

He also wanted to check again to see if the mysterious person had left any clues, so that he could at least find out the identity of the villain.

The fifth floor of the Sword Tower was quite empty.

Apart from a stone platform in the middle that is about five meters wide and two meters high, the surrounding area is empty and there is nothing there.

Sword stage.

It is made from a single large piece of bluestone, with a smooth and simple appearance.

Chen Yang glanced at it and indeed did not see the sword tablet.

Logically speaking, if the fifth level still contains sword tablets, then they should have been left by a sword cultivator at the fifth realm.

How powerful are sword cultivators at the Fifth Realm?

Legend has it that when the Heavenly Sword and the Heavenly Sword are combined, they can influence celestial phenomena and no longer rely on simple sword techniques, but can rely on the power of nature to harm people.

That kind of realm is simply unimaginable.

Although the Yang family had many powerful ancestors, including a mountain lord at the Celestial Realm, how many of them could reach such a level?

Chen Yang's gaze fell on the sword platform.

The sword platform in the cave of Jinjia Mountain naturally came to mind.

He circled the sword platform, which was taller than him and resembled a giant millstone. He scanned it with his mental energy.

Unsurprisingly, it was impossible to probe inside the platform.

The same applies to using one's spiritual energy and radar.

In the middle of the stone platform, there is a long, narrow hole, the same shape as the hole on the sword platform in the Jinjiashan Cave.

"Old Yang, what's the background of this sword platform?" Chen Yang asked.

Yang Wenguang shook his head. "It has been passed down from our ancestors for hundreds of years and has always been here. As for its origin, I don't know either. The clan records don't explain it in detail either, but the fact that this stone platform is placed here means that it must have something extraordinary about it."

Chen Yang raised an eyebrow. "Has Elder Yang been to this fifth floor before?"

Yang Wenguang nodded and said, "Although you can't come up from inside the tower, you can come up from outside. Also, the clansmen who are usually assigned to clean the sword tower don't have any cultivation, so they can also come up from inside the tower..."

With his cultivation level, he could only reach the third floor before. It was not very possible for him to go up to the fifth floor from the tower unless he closed off his six senses and five senses, and was not affected by the sword intent of the fourth floor, and felt his way up the stairs.

Of course, you can also climb up through the window from outside the tower, so the fifth floor is actually safer than the first floor because there isn't a single sword tablet there.

Chen Yang's gaze returned to the sword platform, looking at the hole in the middle. He thought to himself, since it's a sword platform, this hole must be used to insert a sword.

"Old Yang..."

He pointed to the hole in the middle of the sword stand, "This hole, it's for inserting the sword, right? Could it be...?"

Yang Wenguang shook his head. "What you can think of, we can naturally think of too. There's something strange about this sword platform. Over the centuries, our ancestors have tried countless times to unravel its secrets. Almost every precious sword in the clan has been stuck here. In fact, decades ago, before Chixiao was lost, it was stuck here for a long time, but the sword platform didn't react at all..."

"Is it……"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's eyes flickered slightly.

He even had an urge to take out the Crimson Sky Sword and try it out.

The Crimson Sky Sword was hidden in his system inventory.

He could take it out anytime he wanted, but he did have some reservations about doing so in front of Yang Wenguang.

After all, it belonged to the Yang family. Although Yang Wenhui lent it to Huang Daolin, it was still a Yang family property, and it would be awkward for others to see it.

Chen Yang's intuition told him that this sword platform was no ordinary place.

The Yang family couldn't find a solution, perhaps because they weren't looking in the right direction.

……

The two came downstairs, and Yang Wenhui also arrived with his men.

Upon seeing the situation, the crowd erupted in curses and swears.

This sword tower holds a significant place in the hearts of the Yang family members. Not only is it a legacy passed down from their ancestors and holds special meaning, but all the younger generation in the Yang family who are talented in swordsmanship still rely on the sword intent within the tower to enhance their swordsmanship cultivation.

That's terrible; the fourth floor was completely emptied, resulting in a huge loss.

But every cloud has a silver lining. After their outburst, the two elders of the Yang family calmed down and came to their senses. After all, a common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. It's better to let the sword tablet on the fourth floor be destroyed to avoid attracting unwanted attention.

At least the bottom three levels are still intact. If someone has a real talent for swordsmanship, they have a good chance of cultivating to the level of sword intent clarity by relying on the bottom three levels of the sword tower.

This incident was truly an unexpected disaster for the Yang family.

Since we've already encountered this situation, complaining and blaming others won't help. Life goes on, crops still need to be harvested, and grain still needs to be threshed.

……

-

Night. It was just past the fifteenth of July, and the moon is fullest on the sixteenth.

The moon tonight is really big and round. Maybe it's because Longtai Mountain is high enough. Chen Yang feels that he has never seen such a big and bright moon before.

After dinner, Chen Yang lay on a wicker chair by the pomegranate tree in the backyard, basking in the moonlight.

The serene moonlight, like a surging tide, entered Chen Yang's forehead and settled there.

This Moon Shadow Technique is indeed unique. Before long, Chen Yang felt a swelling between his eyebrows. He maintained this feeling of expansion, which allowed the Yintang acupoint to slowly expand and increase its capacity.

It controls the slow rotation, condensation, and compression of the Yin energy in the Yintang acupoint, striving to make the Yintang acupoint able to hold more Yin energy.

The uses of Yin energy are numerous. It is needed to perform the Moon Shadow Technique and can also be used to cultivate the primordial spirit.

Yang Wenhui sat beside him, unlike Chen Yang, he was simply basking in the moonlight. However, aside from the matters of the Sword Tower during the day, he wasn't in the mood to appreciate the moon.

"Ugh."

Yang Wenhui sighed, "I really don't know who is so despicable. My brother was still so angry at dinner. I've never seen him so angry before. If I find out who did this, I'll tear him to pieces."

"Come on, that's a Dao True Realm expert. What do you have to fight them with? It's better to lose money than to suffer a disaster. Think positively," Chen Yang said.

"Easy for you to say."

Yang Wenhui thought he could take things easy, but some things, when they first happen, you might not think much of them, but when you reflect on them afterward, you get angrier the more you think about them.

It's truly frustrating to suffer such a loss for nothing, and then have to swallow the bitter pill.

But considering the opponent's strength, one feels utterly powerless.

"Didn't you get a clear look at the person's face?" Yang Wenhui asked.

"No."

Chen Yang shook his head, then changed the subject, "Grandpa, there's something I want to ask you."

"what's up?"

Yang Wenhui glanced at Chen Yang beside him in surprise.

Chen Yang sat up and asked, "Your Yang family ancestors must have produced quite a few remarkable figures, right? I wonder if you've ever heard of someone named Yang Wudi?"

"Yang Wudi?"

Yang Wenhui raised an eyebrow. "I don't know him."

"Answering so quickly? Why don't you think about it carefully?" Chen Yang looked at him with curiosity.

Yang Wenhui said, "Who would come up with such a stupid name? Invincible, it sounds so silly..."

Chen Yang was both amused and exasperated. However, the name was indeed quite childish, and it was normal to be ridiculed. "Think about it carefully," he said, "your surname is Yang, your Yang family ancestors..."

Yang Wenhui raised an eyebrow, unable to resist his insistence, and after a few seconds of thought, said, "There really isn't such a person. Why are you asking this?"

"It's nothing, just asking!"

Chen Yang chuckled; it really wasn't easy to explain this to him.

Yang Wenhui looked at Chen Yang strangely, feeling that Chen Yang was implying something in his words, as if he was hiding something from him.

Before he could ask any further questions, Chen Yang asked again, "Grandpa, if what happened at the Sword Tower today was done by your Yang family, what would you do?"

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Yang Wenhui's brows furrowed like an orange peel. He turned to look at Chen Yang and said, "Chen Yang, tell me honestly, what exactly are you trying to say? What do you mean by saying that our Yang family did it? Stop beating around the bush and be straightforward."

He now seriously suspected that Chen Yang was hiding something from him; the kid's hesitant expression was really alluring.

Chen Yang pondered for a moment.

"That guy didn't get away today, I took care of him..."

"What?"

Yang Wenhui paused for a moment, then exclaimed in surprise, "They've taken care of them? Who were they? Why didn't you say so before?"

"Don't get excited."

Chen Yang waved his hand, "There are some things that are better left unsaid, to avoid trouble. Don't ask who it is, I won't tell you. But don't worry, I've handled it very cleanly..."

Yang Wenhui sat there in a daze, feeling as if his brain had gone blank, and it took him a long time to react.

"Before he died, that man mentioned someone, the very person I just asked you about. This person is named Yang Wudi, and is said to be a member of your Yang family. He is over 150 years old and still alive. He was the one who brought that person to the Sword Tower today, and he stayed on the fourth floor of the Sword Tower for more than two months..."

Chen Yang's words struck Yang Wenhui like a thunderbolt, leaving him speechless for a long time.

Are the Yang family ancestors, at least 150 years old, still alive?

Yang Wenguang is the most senior and oldest member of the Yang family. Where would there be anyone older?

Is the news accurate?

It took Yang Wenhui a long time to come to his senses, and he stared blankly at Chen Yang.

Chen Yang's words were truly shocking to him.

"really."

Chen Yang nodded slightly, "I'm telling you all this just to get to know this Yang Wudi. Your Yang family has a family tree, so it shouldn't be difficult to trace him. Also, it's to give you some background information so you can live your lives peacefully and not get involved in certain things..."

"And then there's the possibility that I might run into this person in the future. If he turns against me, how should I deal with it..."

Chen Yang said a lot.

Yang Wenhui felt his head buzzing; the news was simply too shocking for him.

"Wait a minute, let me catch my breath..."

He stopped Chen Yang, collected his thoughts, and after a while said, "You're not joking with me?"

Chen Yang shook his head seriously.

Yang Wenhui received an affirmative answer and immediately stood up. "You should go to sleep early. I'll go ask my older brother."

This is such explosive news that he can't process it all by himself; he needs to ask Yang Wenguang about it.

If the person Chen Yang mentioned really exists and is indeed an ancestor of the Yang family, there would most likely be a record of him in the family genealogy. Moreover, although 150 years old is quite old, Yang Wenguang is almost 100 years old himself, so he might remember him.

After watching Yang Wenhui leave, Chen Yang was not in a hurry to go back to his room. Such a big moon was a rare opportunity to cultivate his primordial spirit.

The yin energy tonight is incredibly concentrated.

……

After midnight, the Jade Rabbit fell to the west. Chen Yang returned to his room and took stock of the things he had taken from Lu Feiyu.

This person had no storage space on him, which was rather shabby compared to Lu Lingfeng.

Three swords, one gold, one silver, and one blue.

The golden sword is named Youlong, the silver sword is named Jingfeng, and the green sword is named Qingmu.

The first two were forged from top-grade black iron, while the latter was made from ironwood from the Dao True Realm; both were rare and excellent swords.

These three swords have all acquired sword spirits.

It's clear that Lu Feiyu is quite skilled in swordsmanship.

Simultaneously cultivating three swords and three sword spirits is something that ordinary sword cultivators cannot accomplish.

Chen Yang looked at them from all angles and felt that Chi Xiao was the most convenient to handle.

Although the sword master was dead, the sword spirits of the three swords resisted Chen Yang. Chen Yang didn't care and simply put them away.

You resist me, and I might not even bother with you. Just leave you to gather dust in the system repository.

……

Lu Feiyu didn't have many things on him. Besides the three swords, he also had a sword-shaped jade pendant, which was probably for protection, but it was damaged and useless.

In addition, Chen Yang also found an inner pocket in his clothes.

Besides some documents, there were also several bottles and jars inside, from which Chen Yang found fifteen Marrow Cleansing Pills.

It's probably a counterfeit medicine from Shennongmen, but I don't know how much more effective it is compared to the genuine product.

Lu Feiyu had only recently broken through to the Dao True Realm, and the Marrow Cleansing Pill could accelerate the transformation of his physical body into a flawless body, shortening the metamorphosis process.

In the end, Chen Yang benefited.

Besides the Marrow Cleansing Pill, there are also twelve sword seeds, which should have been condensed by Lu Feiyu himself using sword intent, and are three-realm sword seeds.

The quality of the sword was much worse than the one Zhou Mingyuan had given him, but Chen Yang had no reason to look down on something he had picked up.

What remains are various kinds of healing pills.

Finally, at the bottom of the inner bag, there is a plant that looks somewhat like a succulent.

Chen Yang took it out.

It's bright red, like a blooming flower.

"Rhodiola rosea?"

Chen Yang raised an eyebrow. It was a highland plant, Rhodiola rosea.

“This stuff is good, the quality is not low. Although it is not as good as the immortal stuff, it is close. Rhodiola rosea has abundant blood energy, which can invigorate blood circulation. Moreover, if you eat it raw, it may have unexpected effects…” The voice of the Three Corpse Divine Tree rang out, finally touching on its area of ​​expertise.

"What effect?" Chen Yang asked.

The Three Corpse Divine Tree said, "Besides supplying qi and blood, this substance can also clear the brain meridians, cleanse the mind, and, when consumed raw, increase the chances of sudden enlightenment..."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang's eyes lit up.

To aid sudden enlightenment?

A sudden enlightenment is the best way to improve one's state of mind, but it is also an opportunity that can only be encountered by chance.

Chen Yang had experienced several moments of enlightenment before, and each time it greatly improved his state of mind.

Now, his mental state is already in the late stage of the Creation Realm, just one step away from the Dao True Realm. If this Rhodiola rosea can give him an epiphany, wouldn't it be a sure thing for his mental state to enter the Dao True Realm?
