Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 219 How Much Sword Intent Can Be Exchanged
Li Fan and Lu Yuan entered the city. In the broken city, demons were still everywhere. When Li Fan's sword whizzed past, all the demons died wherever it passed.

The two men came to an abandoned pavilion and sat cross-legged. Li Fan looked up, his pupils turned golden, as if he saw demonic energy rising into the sky from all directions in the distance.

Are these the tests prepared for these foreign monks?

The danger in this secret realm comes first from the secret realm itself, and secondly from the sword cultivators who enter the secret realm.

If he was just an ordinary Foundation Establishment cultivator, even if he was in the late Foundation Establishment stage, he would surely die from the attack of the demonic frenzy just now.

However, the threat posed by that demon leader far exceeded that of Han Zhong, and he was definitely a top-level fighter in the Foundation Establishment Realm.

"Lu Yuan, absorb the sword intent." Li Fan said.

This place is dangerous, so for the time being, don't think about collecting more special sword intent. Instead, refine and improve yourself first. With such practice conditions, if you can advance your cultivation one step further in half a month, you can enter the middle stage of foundation building by absorbing sword intent.

Then the remaining half month will be enough.

Lu Yuan nodded and sat cross-legged beside Li Fan. They closed their eyes and concentrated on refining their sword intent.

Wisps of sword intent surrounded the two of them, and then were refined into their bodies and merged into their own sword intent. They were surrounded by sword intent.

In the distance, there were demons staring at this side with cruelty in their eyes, but when they stared at Li Fan, their eyes were extremely vigilant and they did not dare to act rashly.

Li Fan’s violent killing before frightened them.

After several hours, Li Fan's sword intent had been condensed, and the sword intent emanating from him seemed to be a bit stronger than before.

Li Fan opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashing in them, and a sharp spirit hidden within.

"In this secret realm, people gain sword intent through killing and then refine it. Their personalities will seem to become sharper." Li Fan thought to himself that humans are easily influenced by the environment.

In Chixiao City, many sword cultivators just want to compete with each other, but once they enter the secret realm, many humans will have murderous intentions.

At this moment, Li Fan seemed to have noticed something. With a thought, the terrifying sword intent swept towards one direction.

In a place in the broken city, a demon felt that he was locked by the sword intent. He was horrified and turned around and ran away, but the sword intent instantly overwhelmed him.

"Young man, please spare my life." Seeing that he could not escape, the demon turned around and knelt down to beg for mercy, wanting to live.

"come over."

A voice vibrated in his mind, and Li Fan's shadow appeared in front of the demon.

"Yes." The demon nodded, his heart was shocked. This foreign human swordsman was really scary.

He walked with trembling body and came to Li Fan.

Li Fan walked forward, his body floating in the air, his eyes like sharp swords. The demons trembled and crawled on the ground, saying, "What do you want, young man?"

"I ask you questions and you answer honestly." Li Fan said.

"Yes." The demon nodded.

"Where is this place and why are you here?" Li Fan asked. It was rumored that Chixiao City was a secret place for immortals to practice cultivation. He and Lu Yuan had also discussed this.

So what are these demons?
He wanted to hear what the other party said, verify the different statements, and see if he could find the answer.

"This is the world we live in. We have always lived here." The demon replied, "On the contrary, human cultivators like you come here to kill every once in a while. In order to survive, we can only become stronger and kill the invading human cultivators."

Li Fan showed a strange look. From what the other party said, it seemed that they were the unforgivable invaders.

Of course, humans and demons have different paths, and he doesn't have too much compassion for the world. This is destined from birth.

"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise..." Li Fan's mind moved, and the terrifying sword intent pressed towards the opponent, with a fierce murderous intent.

"I dare not deceive you, young man." The demon trembled and said, "But if we kill human cultivators, we can also plunder the sword spirit from them, improve our cultivation, and have the opportunity to grow into the leader of the demon clan."

"Like the demon I killed before?" Li Fan said.

The other party shook his head and said, "Although he is the strongest demon in this city, he is not the leader of the demon clan. There are many demons like him in Tianjian City where you are going."

"Tianjian City?" Li Fan frowned. It seemed that the information he knew was still limited. Every year, many disciples from Chengying Sword Dojo would enter the secret realm, and they would bring the news out as well.

Presumably, he knows much more about the things in this secret realm than he does. Such an information gap will allow the other party to take a certain initiative and plunder the sword intent more quickly.

"Young man, you hunt here and gain enough sword intent. The ultimate goal is to enter Tianjian City. There, you will find the opportunities that human practitioners like you want." The demon continued. As a native of the secret realm, the other party obviously knew more than Li Fan.

"Where is it easiest to obtain the sword intent of this world?" Li Fan continued to ask.

"There are nine cities outside Tianjian City, where a large number of demons gather. The nine cities are ruled by nine demon generals. If you want to quickly obtain a large amount of sword intent, going there is the fastest way." The demon replied.

Li Fan frowned, and with a "puff" sound and a scream, the flying sword pierced through the opponent's body. The demon said in a trembling voice: "Young man, I am telling the truth, but the nine demon generals are extremely powerful. They are sitting there, and their hands are stained with the blood of human practitioners. Although the young man is powerful, you must be careful if you go there."

Li Fan stared at the other party. Was this demon playing tricks on him?
Want him to die. The main city that can sit in the secret realm is immortal, and its strength is unquestionable. Just as the other party said, their hands must be stained with the blood of many human monks, which makes them constantly stronger.

From this point of view, this is a secret world where humans can gain sword power by killing demons, and demons can also improve their strength by killing humans. Such cruel struggles make the tests faced by humans entering the secret world even more difficult.

"Where is Tianjian City?" Li Fan asked.

"Young man, just keep going in that direction and you will naturally arrive." The demon pointed to a direction and hoped that Li Fan would get there quickly and die there.

"Puchi..." A flying sword pierced directly through his eyebrows, and the demon stared at Li Fan with wide eyes.

What a vicious human being.

He had already begged for mercy in a humble manner, but the other party still killed him mercilessly.

After absorbing the sword intent from the opponent, Li Fan directly refined it into his body and continued to use it to improve himself.

At this time, Lu Yuan had also finished refining and came to Li Fan.

"We received the news a little slower. The disciples of Chengying Sword must have known everything about this secret realm in advance." Li Fan said, "Let's set off."

Getting the news in advance can give you the upper hand.

In this, we need to race against time.

Moreover, you have to go and see it for yourself to know.

…………

One of the nine cities outside Tianjian City.

At this time, a group of figures came into the city.

"Senior Chengying Sword's disciples are indeed worthy of their reputation. They are all extremely talented. They have brought us here in such a short time." A sword cultivator from Chixiao City praised.

There were more than a dozen people in this group, led by Ying Ze, Ren Yuzhi and several other disciples of Chengying Sword, who led the team here.

"Cooperation leads to win-win results. There are many powerful monsters here. It is very dangerous if you go alone." Yingze said, "Let's go into the city."

The group rushed into the demon city and soon encountered demons coming to kill them, but they could not stop Yingze and his group at all.

Xia Yao was also in the crowd. She had originally wanted to join the Chengying Sword Sect, but missed the opportunity because of Li Fan. Later, like Lu Yuhuan, she invited Li Fan to join her.

But Li Fan chose Lu Yuhuan.

She asked for two swords and brought only two people from the Xia family to this secret realm. Later, she met the disciples of Chengying Sword who called on everyone to go together, so she joined them.

After all, the people from Chengying Sword Sect know the most complete information.

However, Xia Yao was still cautious along the way. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and it is better to be on guard in this secret realm.

Puff... The flying sword harvested the sword intent from a demon's body. Xia Yao put it away and glanced at Ying Ze and the others, who were all hunting demons.

Is it because I am being petty?

"The nine cities surrounding Tianjian City are all guarded by demon generals. Even I may not be able to defeat them. If we join forces to kill them, we can obtain a lot of sword intent." Ying Ze said.

"it is good."

"Follow Brother Ying's arrangements." The group seemed somewhat excited and charged forward in a mighty force.

A palace appeared in front of them, sword energy rose into the sky, and a group of people headed straight in that direction.

Stepping into the square in front of the palace, a demon with a terrifying aura stood above the palace. Then, in the surrounding area, a large number of demons appeared one after another and surrounded this area.

"Demon general." Someone whispered.

"There are a lot of demons here."

"Don't worry. With Brother Ying, the number one on the Qingyun Ranking, and Senior Chengyingjian's disciples, we will definitely be able to kill this demon general."

"My name is Yingze, and I'm here to learn the sword spirit." Yingze looked straight ahead and spoke loudly, which made everyone feel braver.

He is worthy of being the number one on the Qingyun List.

But Xia Yao frowned. There was something wrong with the tone.

She stepped back silently.

“How much sword intent can these sword cultivators exchange for?” Ying Ze pointed to the crowd and said, and suddenly everyone’s heartbeat started wildly and their faces turned pale in an instant.
