A Man in the Snow: Starting with a Sword Challenge to the Northern Liang Prince's Palace

A crimson streak of light flashed across the sky above Longhu Mountain.

On Longhu Mountain, Zhang Danping glared angrily at the sword light, his hands clasped behind his back, his aura locked, trying to see clearly who was in the sword light.

"You don't deserve it."

A crimson sword light suddenly shot out, and the sharp and domineering sword energy suddenly fell towards Zhao Danxia.

It instantly shattered Zhao Danping's entire aura.

Deep within Longhu Mountain, a figure suddenly stepped in front of Zhao Danping, blocking the remaining sword energy.

The visitor was none other than Zhao Danxia, ​​the head of Longhu Mountain.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, please don't be angry."

"You stinking Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain, I won't bother with you today."

The crimson sword light eventually disappeared into Mount Hui.

Zhao Danping was furious and extremely angry. Just now, the other party was clearly flying over Longhu Mountain. Couldn't they even take a look?

"Who exactly is this person?"

Zhao Danxia shook his head and smiled helplessly. He was already familiar with his junior brother's childishness, but explained:

"Him? His name is Ye Yun, the one who recently killed Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Liang."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Danping's anger seemed to be instantly extinguished by cold water.

This guy is ruthless. He managed to fight his way out of the Northern Liang royal palace, killing more than a dozen first-rank experts from Northern Liang. Countless Northern Liang cavalrymen died, including one who was a "sword and armor" expert from the Spring and Autumn Period.

Rumor has it that Qi Lianhua, the "Sword Armor" expert, has already reached the realm of a terrestrial immortal.

Yet he was still killed by him.

After calming down, Zhao Danping thought, "This person is so domineering, does he think he's invincible?"

"I don't know if he's invincible, but I do know that the Xuanyuan clan is likely to rise to power. Junior brother, don't provoke this boy."

Zhao Danxia still maintained an ethereal demeanor, but a hint of worry on her face could not conceal her inner turmoil.

Zhao Danping, who was standing to the side, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and then turned around to go into seclusion to heal his injuries.

Looking at his junior brother, Zhao Danxia had no idea what to do. Although his junior brother Zhao Danping had an extreme personality, his Taoist martial arts talent was among the best in the world. If he could cultivate properly, he might be able to reach the realm of immortals.

Ye Yun arrived at the Great Snow Plain on his sword.

They discovered that the great battle could be sensed from thousands of miles away, but then it suddenly stopped.

Could it be that Xuanyuan Jingcheng and "Cannon Armor" perished together again?

That shouldn't be happening!

"Jingcheng greets Young Master Ye."

A voice rang out from not far away.

It was indeed Xuanyuan Jingcheng, who must have been waiting for a long time.

"Congratulations, Mr. Xuanyuan, on achieving your wish."

The fact that Xuanyuan Jingcheng is still alive means that Xuanyuan Dapan is dead.

"Thanks to Young Master Ye's help, the Xuanyuan Clan will serve you for the next twenty years."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng took out a family head token belonging to the Xuanyuan clan.

Ye Yun drew in the token with one hand, and this token of authority belonging to the Xuanyuan Clan would belong to him for the next twenty years.

"It seems you have completely intimidated the Xuanyuan Clan."

As expected of Xuanyuan Jingcheng, despite seemingly living in a secluded study deep in the mountains, he has an extremely thorough understanding of the entire Xuanyuan clan.

"Young Master Ye, you can rest assured. My father has been expelled from the Xuanyuan Clan by me, and my second and third brothers have passed away. For the next twenty years, your words will be law within the Xuanyuan Clan."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng's eyes were full of sincerity, without any pretense or deceit.

Ye Yun nodded with great satisfaction:

"Aren't you afraid that the entire Xuanyuan clan will fall into the abyss in my hands?"

"Young Master Ye, I, Xuan Yuan Jingcheng, am very good at judging people, and my choice will not be wrong."

"Alright, I will naturally keep my promise. Give me this territory of Xuanyuan Dapan! Let Xuanyuan Qingfeng come out!"

Ye Yun stood with his hands behind his back, having subdued the Xuanyuan Clan of Huishan. From then on, he could gradually devour the entire martial arts world.

"Aomine, come out!"

Xuanyuan Jingcheng said softly.

Then they saw a young woman in purple, exceptionally beautiful, with a refined face, regular features, and an air of both elegance and fortitude.

"Qingfeng greets Ye Jianxian."

Xuanyuan Qingfeng stepped forward and knelt down to pay his respects.

This woman is no ordinary person.

A red light flashed in Ye Yun's eyes, and he could see the immense fortune emanating from the other person.

"Would you be willing to become my disciple?"

Ye Yun's voice was cold and aloof, as if he were shutting everyone out.

Xuan Yuan Qingfeng stared at the man in red robes before him, especially at his phoenix eyes, which seemed to see right through him. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, saying:

"Qingfeng greets Master."

"Yes, starting tomorrow, you can come find me at this large snowfield."

As soon as Ye Yun finished speaking, the token that originally belonged to the Xuanyuan family head flew towards Xuanyuan Qingfeng.

Startled, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng caught the token and looked at his father, Xuan Yuan Jingcheng, who was both strange and familiar.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng did not speak, but simply folded his hands and nodded slightly.

"Thank you, Master."

Xuan Yuan Qingfeng beamed with joy; at this moment, she was the head of the Xuan Yuan clan of Huishan.

"Let's go! Take me to see what good things this Xuanyuan Great Pan has accumulated over the years."

"please."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng led the way.

Ye Yun and Xuan Yuan Qingfeng followed behind.

A gentle breeze blew on the wind chimes under the eaves of the Guniu Pavilion, producing a crisp sound that foreshadowed the complete upheaval of the Xuanyuan clan.

They arrived at the place where Xuanyuan Dapan lived.

I never imagined this place would be so magnificent yet so peaceful.

Xuanyuan Dapan knows how to enjoy life.

"Alright, you can leave now. Don't bother me unless it's absolutely necessary. I need to go into seclusion for a while."

Ye Yun directly ordered them to leave.

"Jingcheng takes his leave."

"This disciple takes his leave."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng and his daughter left the place immediately.

Ye Yun looked at the various obscene paintings hanging not far away, which must be the dual cultivation method of "Cannon Armor" Xuanyuan Dapan.

With a casual wave of his hand, he shattered these paintings.

The method of dual cultivation of the furnace and cauldron is an evil path.

It's better not to watch it.

Ye Yun sat cross-legged.

"The system panel has been opened."

[Host: Ye Yun]

[Physical Constitution: Innate Sword Body (Minor Completion)]

[Realm: Terrestrial Immortal Realm (Sword Heart Clarity)]

[Techniques: Ten Thousand Swords Return to One, Ten Thousand Swords Return to One, Mysterious Sword Technique, Supreme Sword Ruler, Unknown]

[Weapon: Immortal Sword Nanming Li Huo, Divine Power - Blazing Reincarnation]

[Luck Value: 330000 points]

Special Item: Jade Pendant of the Confucian Sage

[Sole Main Quest: Become the Best in the World]

A special item has appeared on the system panel. It seems that the jade pendant given by Old Man Zhang is no ordinary item!

Looking at the 330000 luck points on the system panel, Ye Yun had a bold idea.

With just 20 luck points, Xuanyuan Jingcheng could break through from the peak of the Celestial Phenomenon Realm to the Land Immortal Realm.

If all of this were applied to oneself, would it be possible to reach the terrestrial celestial realm?

"System, if I add all my luck points to myself, can I break through to the Land Celestial Realm?"

"Ding, with the host's current cultivation level, if you want to forcibly advance to the Land Celestial Realm, you need more than five million Luck Points."

What the heck, that's so much stuff?

Killing a terrestrial immortal only yields 100,000 luck points.

That means he still has to kill forty experts at the Land Immortal Realm.

Is the system trying to turn him into a serial killer?

"System, is there any other way for me to break through to the terrestrial celestial realm?"

"Ding, checking the cultivation rules of this world for the host. If you want to break through to the terrestrial celestial realm, there are two methods. One is for the host to integrate the methods of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, prove the Tao with force, and shatter the void."

Secondly, one can rely on self-realization to break through the bottlenecks in swordsmanship and comprehend its essence.

What is artistic conception?

"Ding! This is an ancient method of cultivating immortality. A cultivator's unique perception and understanding of heaven and earth, life, or a certain law originates from their own inner understanding."

After listening to the system's explanation, Ye Yun finally understood.

The system is telling him that he must either abide by the rules of this world when he cultivates.

Alternatively, one can rely on their own insights to break the rules.

Ye Yun took out the jade pendant given to him by the Zhang family sage:

"If that's the case, then let's try them all."
