Martial Arts: After ten years of sword-drawing, the Sword God must bow his head when he sees me

Chapter 202 Ten thousand swords return to the clan
Yaoyue nodded and said, "Although his character and behavior are somewhat despicable, Zhu Wushi can be considered a devoted lover for his unwavering devotion to his beloved for over twenty years."

Shen Ping'an did not object to this.

After all, Zhu Wushi could be criticized for everything else, but on the issue of "emotion," there was truly nothing wrong with him.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a love-struck fool.

Unfortunately, Zhu ignored the fact that this person was an ungrateful wretch.

To befriend them is tantamount to asking a tiger for its skin.

Anyone who had a good relationship with Zhu Wushi never had a good ending.

However, in some ways, Zhu Wushi, a ruthless and ambitious ruler, was also the most suitable person to be a founding emperor.

Qu Feiyan asked, puzzled, "But what does this have to do with controlling Zhu Wushi?"

In response to Qu Feiyan's question, without Shen Ping'an having to speak, Zhang Sanniang explained, "In the world, the most feared people are not people like Zhang Zhenren of Wudang, or even the current emperor, but because both Zhang Zhenren and the emperor have concerns and worries."

"The most frightening and dangerous people are often those who will stop at nothing and are willing to risk their lives."

"Shenhou is such a person. In terms of strength, Shenhou has already reached the Heavenly Gang Realm. In terms of power, Shenhou is in charge of the Dragon Guard Manor and is also the head of the Azure Dragon Society. He may even become the new emperor of the Great Ming Kingdom soon."

"The fact that he stole Su Xin and framed the undefeated boy Gu Santong is a testament to his cunning and scheming."

"Such a person is too scheming, too calculating, and too ambitious."

"If it has no weaknesses, how can we use it with confidence?"

"From the matter of Tianxiang Doukou, it can be seen that Suxin is the person that Shenhou values ​​most."

"Only if this Suxin girl lives well will the Divine Marquis not dare to act rashly."

Finally, Zhang Sanniang looked at Shen Ping'an and said, "This is also why your young master always liked to plan ahead and eliminate problems before they arise."

Shen Ping'an simply smiled at Zhang San Niang's words and did not refute them.

And indeed, it was just as Zhang San Niang had said.

Because Shen Ping'an also has things he cares about, from the moment he stepped into the martial world and began to show his strength, Shen Ping'an has always displayed a tough and domineering attitude.

Once you start, you'll show no mercy.

Even if the other party is Zhao Min, a princess of the Great Yuan Kingdom, or Pang Ban, a demon master backed by a top-tier power.

Only in this way can the world understand that as long as Shen Ping'an is still alive, anyone who dares to provoke Shen Ping'an or even harm the people around him will inevitably face a fight to the death.

If you want to enjoy life to the fullest, you must first be free from all attachments.

Otherwise, when dealing with external threats, it is best to remain still until the very end, and when to act decisively and forcefully to avoid future troubles.

After chatting for a while, Zhang San Niang and the others began to reminisce about the previous battle between Shen Ping An and Dugu Qiu Bai.

By constantly recalling and analyzing the details of the two men's battles, one can make them one's own.

Shen Ping'an then walked towards the garden.

As he walked, Shen Ping'an focused his mind on the system's inventory.

As the thought flashed through his mind, Shen Ping'an opened the special treasure chest he had obtained when he defeated Dugu Qiubai.

[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining ten thousand taels of gold.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a low-grade Dao-level swordsmanship martial arts card (Masterful) *1.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a special item: 1 bottle of Three Elements Nine Harmony Pill.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained a Secondary Job Upgrade Card (Master Level) *1.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained an Unknown Person Trial Card (Dao Foundation Realm Level 1) *1.]

[The item has been automatically stored in the system backpack. Please retrieve it yourself.]

"Ok?"

As system notifications popped up, Shen Ping'an, who had just entered the garden, paused. His eyes flashed, and his consciousness immediately went into his system inventory to check.

"Sigh~"

After a short while, having examined the uses of these items, Shen Ping'an couldn't help but gasp.

"Indeed, there are martial arts in this world that are a level higher than Heaven-rank martial arts."

At Shen Ping'an's current level, he can clearly feel that even a top-grade Heaven-rank martial art like the "Heaven-Slaying Sword Technique" is not the end of martial arts, but rather a path to be followed.

Even with his current abilities, Shen Ping'an would find it difficult to deduce martial arts techniques beyond the Heavenly Rank. Now, the system's reward of a low-grade Dao-rank sword martial arts card undoubtedly proves Shen Ping'an's conjecture.

Sanyuan Jiuhe Dan is a particularly special medicine.

This is a special medicine made from Tianyuan Flower, Diyuan Grass, Renyuan Vine, and seventy-eight other different medicinal materials.

Its powerful medicinal effect lies in its ability to restore vital energy.

Even a martial artist at the Celestial Realm can recover their true energy within nine breaths after taking one pill once their true energy is exhausted.

It can be described as a holy grail among medicines for restoring vital energy.

As for the secondary profession upgrade card, it allows Shen Ping'an to upgrade one of his secondary professions to the Saintly level.

When Shen Ping'an's gaze fell on the last character experience card, his expression became somewhat intriguing.

"I didn't expect to actually get this character's trial card. I just don't know if this character's namelessness is the Heavenly Sword Namelessness or the Bloodstained Namelessness like Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Source."

Although he was extremely interested in this nameless character trial card, Shen Ping'an had not yet reached the point of directly using it.

After calming down a bit, Shen Ping'an had a sudden thought.

"System, use a low-grade Dao-level swordsmanship martial arts card."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, three breaths later, a system notification suddenly popped up in front of Shen Ping'an.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have acquired a low-grade Dao-rank martial art—"Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Source" (revised).]

"The Return of Ten Thousand Swords"?

Shen Ping'an's eyes lit up when he saw the new martial arts name he had acquired.

Before Shen Ping'an could think further, a flood of information came rushing in.

"Sword energy is like a dragon, sword momentum is like an emperor, sword intent is like the heavens; with a single thought, ten thousand swords move."

At the same time, Shen Ping'an's consciousness was once again drawn into the cloud-shrouded mountain peak.

Within the sea of ​​clouds, a figure began practicing an exquisite sword technique he had never encountered before.

It was during this profound state, as Shen Ping'an's understanding of this new martial art continued to rise, that his sword intent and true qi stirred together.

As the true energy circulated within his body along a unique path, several sword intents and true energy within Shen Ping'an's body surged forth.

Several sword intents flowed around Shen Ping'an's body like water, mixing with his own true energy, making it seem as if Shen Ping'an was surrounded by vortexes of energy.

The sharp, piercing intent rippled outwards from Shen Ping'an like waves.

In the small courtyard nearby, Zhang San Niang and the others, who were reminiscing about the battle between Shen Ping An and Dugu Qiu Bai with their eyes closed, instinctively activated their sword intent and true qi when they touched the ripples formed by the condensation of sword intent.

Their thoughts were also interrupted.

Feeling the sharp aura emanating from the garden, Lianxing couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, "Again?"

Neither Zhang San Niang nor Yao Yue responded to Lian Xing's words. Instead, they immediately rushed towards the garden while circulating their true energy.

It was when the group moved into the garden again that they immediately saw Shen Ping'an, whose figure was as slender as bamboo, in the middle of the garden.

"Don't come near."

However, this time, just as the group appeared in the garden, Shen Ping'an's short voice suddenly reached their ears.

Upon hearing Shen Ping'an's voice, Yaoyue and the others stopped and watched from a distance.

It was after the group stopped that Shen Ping'an was able to refocus his attention on martial arts.

Before long, the aura of sword intent permeated the entire courtyard.

As various sword intents and true energy intertwined, a chilling sword aura began to surround Shen Ping'an.

Apart from the stone bench where Shen Ping'an was sitting, the surrounding stone table and even the tree next to the table were all being silently sliced ​​apart by the sword energy around Shen Ping'an.

In just a few breaths, apart from Shen Ping'an, there was nothing else within a five-zhang radius around him.

Even the ground bears the marks left by longswords.

It felt like being slashed by hundreds or thousands of longswords.

It wasn't until a quarter of an hour later that the sword intent and sword energy around Shen Ping'an gradually subsided.
