The Demon Cultivator of the Sword

Chapter 97 Hidden Dragon Ranking Competition is Coming

He would reflect on every battle, and would correct any mistakes or errors he made in a timely manner.

Otherwise, if you accumulate too many small mistakes, they will turn into big mistakes.

He didn't want to face a monster like Ye Chen one day, where he would be defeated by the other party even though he was obviously not weaker or even stronger than the other party.

Details determine success or failure.

Early the next morning, Gu Yuan was about to go for training as planned, but was stopped by his father. It turned out that Murong Qingcheng had sent him the sword-shaped grass a few days ago.

There is only one.

At the same time, news came from Lanyue Tower that three sword-shaped grasses appeared at the auction in Tianding City. Deacon Guo Lanyue was originally going to buy them for him, but a young man named Ye Chen, who had amazing financial resources, spent more than 100 million taels of gold to buy them away.

Guo Lanyue wanted to invite this young man to join Lanyue Tower, and since the two young men, Fifth Night and Seventh Night, who were traveling with him, were no match for the young man, she did not force him.

However, the young man was almost robbed by a mysterious Xing Ji Realm. Seeing him walking with the deacon of Lan Yue Tower, it seemed that he was related to Lan Yue Tower.

So there is no forcing.

I just bought one from him.

A sword-shaped grass plus two hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones and a local-level high-level secret method to enhance lightness skills were enough to offset the value of a piece of Heavenly Demon Flower petals.

But could it be that this sword-shaped grass was forced upon Ye Chen by someone from Murong Qingcheng’s family?

"It's really possible."

Gu Yuan sighed and couldn't help but sigh at the wonder of fate.

Since Ye Chen would originally sell it to a swordsman in the late Star Realm, then he would naturally also sell it to a Star Realm powerhouse of the Murong family.

Two days later.

The secret training room.

After Gu Yuan used the War King's sword to effectively utilize the sword-shaped grass, his sword intent reached 70% of its peak.

This result was not unexpected.

Because when one reaches the higher realm of sword intent, it is no longer something that can be improved by just one or two sword-shaped grasses.

Either consume a large amount of sword-shaped grass, or accumulate enough, or encounter a life-and-death crisis and break through on the spot.

There is no other way.

The first condition cannot be met for the time being, because the sword intent of Tianqian Gorge has not yet begun to dissipate. Only when it begins to dissipate can Tianqian Gorge get closer and gradually produce a large number of sword-shaped grass from it.

Otherwise, even if Lanyue Tower and Murong Family had searched for him for so long, they wouldn't have only found three plants in total.

The third condition is even less likely.

Because the people of Feitian Demon Sect would never let him, a genius who had the potential to advance to the realm of life and death, take risks.

Don't think that he is free to enter and leave the sect every time.

But since the end of the Ghost Service Land, every time he left the sect, he would feel a soul force sweeping through him.

It was no surprise that a certain Spiritual Sea Realm Supreme Elder of the sect was secretly protecting his safety. Unless he went to another domain group for training, this would be the only way.

Therefore, the only option left for him now is the second one.

"It is impossible to make further progress in the sword intent in a short period of time, and the realm of the technique has not yet stabilized. Now I will first comprehend the seventh killing move of the Xuanyin Sword Technique, and then swallow the Heavenly Demon Flower to improve the realm of the technique and refine the true essence."

Gu Yuan knew very well that the higher the level of his skills, the earlier he could enter the stage of refining his true essence, and the refining process would also be much faster.

Before he knew it, two months had passed and Gu Yuan was still in seclusion.

During this period, after Gu Yuan comprehended the seventh killing move of the Xuanyin Sword Technique, he swallowed a piece of Heavenly Demon Flower petals.

The main hall of the Flying Demon Sect.

In the vast and empty underground training chamber, Gu Yuan slowly exhaled a breath. The breath came in wisps, like soft sword qi or blazing fireworks, piercing through the opposite wall and burning it.

"The twelfth level of Xuanyin Dafa, the effect of this Heavenly Demon Flower has been reduced so much."

According to Gu Yuan's original estimate, although it took him more than half a year to refine the first two pieces of Heavenly Demon Flower petals, it also helped him improve his martial arts skills by two levels.

The time spent this time was much shorter than the previous two times, but he still didn't even reach the peak of the twelfth level.

"No wonder Murong Qingcheng in the original novel felt that even if she swallowed a whole plant of the Heavenly Demon Flower, she would not be able to raise the Heavenly Demon Art from the eighth level to the highest level. My comprehension is at least three or four times that of an ordinary person. If this is the case, then the other party will naturally be no exception."

"But it's enough. Originally, if I used the eleventh level of the technique to refine the true essence, it would take at least half a year, or even longer. Now that the technique has been upgraded to the twelfth level, the time can be shortened by at least half. It will be enough to complete the first process of refining the true essence before the start of the Hidden Dragon Ranking."

The moment the Xuanyin Dafa broke through to the twelfth level, the three Shura Holy Fires in the Dantian shook slightly, producing a qualitative change. The thumb-sized flames were like golden dragons, covered with a layer of sharp aura, and there was even a faint glow on the surface. Even Gu Yuan was amazed by the spiritual sharpness and extremely high temperature. He could imagine how powerful the Xuanyin Dafa would be when it reached the thirteenth level.

"Let's try the power of the technique first."

Gu Yuan wanted to test the power of the Shura Holy Fire, so he pointed his finger and the Shura Holy Fire instantly burst out from his meridians in the form of sword energy. After fusing with 70% of the peak sword intent, it tore a thin black mark in the void and finally fell on the attack power test column.

On the attack power test column, the first seven rows of crystals lit up at the same time, and the last seventy-one continued to flicker, as if they were about to light up. The sword energy transformed by the Shura Holy Fire did not disappear. After hitting the attack power test column, it transformed into the original form of the Shura Holy Fire, adsorbed on the attack power test column, and continued to burn.

It seemed that it would not stop until the attack power test column was completely burned out.

"suck."

Even though Gu Yuan was mentally prepared, he couldn't help but gasp, because the power of the Shura Holy Fire, which had integrated 70% of the peak sword intent, seemed to be too strong.

He actually exerted an attack power equivalent to that of a warrior in the middle stage of the Star Realm.

This power definitely surpasses the seventh killing move of the Xuanyin Sword Technique, and its power is second only to the Ghost Killing Soul. The key is that he does not need to accumulate power, and it is often difficult to defend against. It can be regarded as one of Gu Yuan's killer moves.

"Don't be proud, don't be proud. Being strong for a while is nothing. Once you leave the Nanzhuo Territory, or even the Southern Territory Group, it will be a real fight between gods."

With a casual move, he urged the Xuanyin true Qi to blow the flames in his face. Gu Yuan took a deep breath, drove the sword intent to kill the pride, held two high-quality spirit stones in his hands, closed his eyes, and began to sink into the state of cultivation to refine the true energy.

Three months passed quickly and the time for the Hidden Dragon Ranking competition was getting closer.

The Nanzhuo region, which had been relatively peaceful, was now in turmoil.

In addition to hundreds of sects, large and small, millions of lone warriors rushed to Qianlong Ancient City.
