With my nine meridians taken away, I will prove my invincibility with the Demon Seed!

The entire place was deathly silent; not a single sound could be heard.

Qin Yi's performance stirred up a storm in everyone's hearts.

The trials of guarding the Sword Cave have always been considered impossible for novice disciples.

But Qin Yi passed!

He was just a junior disciple who had only joined the Starry Sky Palace a month ago and only had the cultivation level of Nirvana Realm!

Furthermore, he doesn't have the powerful family background of the Desolate Heaven Domain; he comes from the resource-poor and martial arts-declining Desolate Ancient Continent!

He didn't just step across the line; he completed it perfectly, 100%, and it only took him seven breaths!

"good!"

"good!"

"good!"

An excited shout came from the guard of the sword cave.

He previously thought Qin Yi was too arrogant and had some reservations about him.

But now, his attitude has completely changed!

This is not arrogance, nor is it conceit.

Qin Yi's previous performance was based on his confidence in his own swordsmanship!

If you look at it from a different perspective, the result will be completely different!

"100% complete!"

"I never imagined that as the guardian of the first level of the Sword Cave, I would witness such a top-tier sword prodigy!"

"Qin Yi, you're such a surprise!"

"Now, I officially announce that you have passed the test and achieved top marks. From this moment on, you are qualified to ascend to the second level of the Sword Cave, and you will receive a free mid-grade Heaven-rank sword technique inheritance, plus a reward of 100,000 Star Points!"

The guards of the Sword Cave walked up to Qin Yi and placed both of their hands on his shoulders.

His eyes were full of admiration as he said, "You're so young, you must be unmarried, right? I have a daughter who is exceptionally beautiful and has a wonderful temperament; she's also very well-educated and sensible. I'll introduce you two another day!"

Qin Yi: ? ? ?

The guard in the Sword Cave immediately realized he had been somewhat out of line and quickly coughed lightly to ease the awkwardness.

At this time.

The people around them gradually recovered from their shock.

"Oh my god, is this...is this real?"

"Am I hallucinating?"

"This...this is really something a beginner disciple of the Nirvana Realm could do?"

"His understanding of swordsmanship has clearly reached a level that we cannot attain!"

Exclamations of surprise rang out one after another.

incredible!

This is absolutely unbelievable!

Qin Yi looked at Li Zhen, a faint smile on his face, and said, "Give me three Six Harmony Spirit Aperture Pills!"

Li Zhen's expression was extremely ugly.

Her grades were above average, which was something to be proud of.

But now, Qin Yi's grades are like a mountain pressing down on her.

Her meager achievements have become a laughing stock.

Today, she seems to be highlighting Qin Yi...

Even for her, who was at the eighth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm, three Six Harmony Spirit Aperture Pills were very precious...

This was money she had painstakingly saved up through frugality and the long-term support and gifts from several admirers like Zhou Zhihao.

Originally, I planned to use these three Six Harmony Spirit Aperture Pills to solidify the foundation of my Dharma Aperture cultivation once I reached the tenth level of the Dharma Aperture Realm, in preparation for breaking through to the Heavenly Realm.

And now... she has to hand it over to the culprit who killed her two younger brothers and caused the Li family's forces to withdraw from the Star Navy Legion...

Thinking about all this made Li Zhen even more upset!

"What? Can't accept defeat?" Qin Yi's voice rang out again.

The guards of the Sword Cave spoke up in your defense, saying, "Since you've already made the bet, you should be able to accept it and let it go. Besides, this bet was made in front of me, so I have an obligation to make sure you fulfill it."

Li Zhen took a deep breath, looked at Qin Yi, and said, "Could you... hold off for now? I'll pay you back when you advance to the Dharma Aspect Realm. Anyway, using the Six Harmonies Spirit Aperture Pill now is a complete waste!"

Qin Yi grinned and said, "What you said makes sense."

Li Zhen was overjoyed, thinking that there was a chance for things to turn around.

But Qin Yi's next words blurted out: "But why should I agree?"

"If I lose, will you let me go?"

"Give it to me!"

Li Zhen felt extremely uncomfortable being stared at by everyone.

"Qin Yi, don't go too far!" Zhou Zhihao, Li Zhen's sycophant, couldn't stand it anymore.

Qin Yi looked at Zhou Zhihao: "And you, give me ten thousand Yuan Crystals!"

Zhou Zhihao: "..."

"Hmph!" Li Zhen snorted coldly, and with a flick of her wrist, three Six Harmony Spirit Aperture Pills were thrown at Qin Yi.

Qin Yi accepted the pill.

In this way, including the one that Du Hua gave him, he now has four Six Harmony Spirit Aperture Pills in reserve, in addition to three Three Pure Spirit Aperture Pills.

He suddenly realized that these wealthy scions who had a grudge against him were actually quite nice.

I even hope to have more contact with these scions of wealthy and powerful families in the future.

We are all disciples of the Starry Sky Palace, so in a sense, we are all on the same side.

Since we're all on the same side, sharing resources is perfectly reasonable.

Unfortunately, I come from the desolate ancient continent, have no background, and am very poor, so I have nothing good to share and can only share what others have.

Li Zhen didn't want to stay here and see Qin Yi's face any longer. With a long face and full of resentment, she stormed towards the stairs leading to the second level of the Sword Cave.

"Senior Sister Li..." Zhou Zhihao called out, wanting to say a few words of comfort to the goddess.

But Li Zhen didn't turn her head or stop walking, as if she hadn't heard Zhou Zhihao's shouts.

Zhou Zhihao was not qualified to ascend to the second level of the Sword Cave, and could only watch helplessly as the goddess's figure disappeared...

"I've already said it, simps never end well," Qin Yi's voice rang out.

"You..." Zhou Zhihao glared at Qin Yi, wishing he could draw his sword and cut Qin Yi into pieces to vent his anger for his goddess.

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean, 'what do you mean'? Ten thousand Yuan Crystals, hurry up and take them out! I don't have time to waste with you!" Qin Yi urged.

Zhou Zhihao glanced furtively at the Sword Cave guard. He dared not refuse, so he obediently took out the 10,000 Yuan Crystals that he had painstakingly saved up to buy a gift for the goddess from his storage ring and handed them to Qin Yi.

Qin Yi sighed inwardly once again, thinking how wonderful it was to be a scion of a wealthy and powerful family!

There's really nothing to gain from Zhou Zhihao's poverty.

"If there's nothing else, everyone can leave now." The Sword Cave guard waved his hand, clearing the area.

As the crowd dispersed.

The guard in the Sword Cave looked at Qin Yi and said, "By the way, you don't know my name yet, do you?"

"My name is Wu Kui. I am a junior steward of the Starry Sky Palace. Like you, I am not a native of the Desolate Sky Domain. I come from the Northern Wilderness Continent."

"Little one, for people like us, cultivating in the Starry Sky Palace is much more difficult, but it's not like there's no chance at all."

"You're so talented, you're sure to have a bright future. If you ever need any help, feel free to come to me. I'll do everything I can to help!"

Qin Yi hummed in agreement, cupped his hands in thanks to Wu Kui, and said, "Thank you, Deacon Wu!"

Wu Kui said, "Also, when you go up to the second level of the Sword Cave later, you can get a free mid-grade Heaven-rank sword technique inheritance. You don't know anything about the situation up there, so I have a suggestion for you."

Qin Yi's eyes flashed, and he said, "I'm all ears!"

Wu Kui said, "Go and choose the inheritance called the Twelve Swords of Spirit Concealment. This sword technique is the strongest among the mid-grade Heaven-rank sword techniques of the Starry Sky Palace!"

Qin Yi nodded and said, "Okay!"

Even the strongest mid-grade Heaven-rank sword technique cannot compare to his Five Elements Extreme Sword Art.

The Five Elements Extreme Sword Technique is a low-grade Saint-level inheritance. Even when broken down into five sets of sword techniques, each is a top-grade Heaven-level technique.

But Qin Yi didn't mind.

It's free anyway.

Just use it to practice and continue to strengthen your swordsmanship foundation, laying the groundwork for achieving complete unity between man and sword!

"Go!" Wu Kui patted Qin Yi on the shoulder again.

After bowing, Qin Yi headed towards the second level of the Sword Cave.

Upon reaching the second level of the Sword Cave, the sword techniques here are at least of the lower-grade Heaven Rank.

The sword energy representing the inheritance of sword techniques has decreased significantly, with only a little over three hundred sword energies in total.

There are far fewer people here now.

Qin Yi glanced around and found that there were not only senior disciples here, but also people wearing steward robes.

And all eyes turned to Qin Yi.

Everyone was shocked, curious, and puzzled.

The long robe Qin Yi was wearing indicated that he was only a junior disciple.

How could a novice disciple actually reach the second level of the Sword Cave?

Qin Yi didn't care about the stares from those around him. He quickly found the mid-grade Heaven-rank sword technique that Wu Kui had told him about.

Coincidentally, Li Zhen, who had just arrived, stood in front of the inherited sword energy representing the Twelve Swords of Lingyin.

To exchange for this sword technique, you need to use 300,000 Star Points.

Li Zhen has 310,000 star points.

She had been collecting these star points for over a year.

For more than a year, she only used the cultivation resources of the Li family. The cultivation resources of the Starry Sky Palace were all given by Zhou Zhihao and his people... She didn't even spend a single star point, just to exchange for the Twelve Swords of Spirit Hidden.

Now, it's finally going to be mine.

But the thought of losing 300,000 star points made her a little reluctant.

Li Zhen took a deep breath and muttered to herself, "I've been saving up for so long just for this sword technique. Once I've mastered it and become stronger, I can try to apply for the advanced disciple trial."

"Then I'll be able to earn Star Points even faster!"

"The investment we're making now is for a better future, and it's worth it!"

The next moment, Li Zhen took the identity token and brought it towards the sword energy.

But then, a token reached out from the side and touched the sword energy.

Then, the inherited light spread out.

Li Zhen immediately turned to the side and saw Qin Yi.

The inherited light of the Twelve Swords of Lingyin was penetrating Qin Yi's brow.

It felt as if a mouse had been stuffed into Li Zhen's throat!

Although the sword technique inheritance is not unique, and Qin Yi obtained it, she can continue to exchange for it, but right now she feels uncomfortable all over!

Qin Yi shook his head, then sighed and said, "You're so lucky. You feel a greater sense of accomplishment exchanging your hard-earned Star Points for this sword technique inheritance."

"I'm different."

"To be honest, I don't really feel anything about getting something for free now!"

"Why!"
