Who taught him to practice swordsmanship like this?

Master Xuanding finally made his decision, and his approach to dealing with worldly affairs remained unchanged amidst all changes.

But even if things remain "unchanged," we can't be completely ignorant.

After thinking for a moment, he gave Su Baichen a task: "Baichen, your illusion skills are powerful enough that you can act as a spy to gather information for us."

Su Baichen suddenly realized: "Senior Uncle, do you want me to infiltrate an official's residence to gather information?"

Master Xuanding nodded: "However, you must remember that we only care about information about demonic cultivators, and we should ignore everything else."

"You absolutely mustn't do anything unnecessary, understand?"

Su Baichen nodded repeatedly to indicate that he understood.

It's just a matter of letting him only be responsible for collecting data, that's easy to handle.

And he didn't find it troublesome, after all, when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact, which also concerns the situation of his hometown, Sujia Village.

When Master Xuanding saw that he had agreed, he reached into his sleeve and pulled out a bronze ring.

"This spiritual message copper finger is for you."

"There is a pair of these; the other one is with me."

"With just a small amount of true energy injected, your primordial spirit can directly communicate with mine."

Su Baichen's eyes lit up when he heard this, knowing it was a good thing.

"Thank you very much, Master Uncle, for bestowing this treasure."

With this, he can ask Xuan Ding Zhenren for help at any time!

Although thinking this way is a bit pathetic, it really boosted my sense of security.

Then, Su Baichen thought of something and cast an illusion spell in front of the three elders, which recreated the appearance of the mysterious youth.

"Senior Uncle, my two Senior Uncles, I just encountered this person. Not only did he see through my illusion at a glance, but he also joined me in the fun at the Zhou residence... I just wonder who this master is?"

"This person..."

Master Xuanding's gaze sharpened, then he revealed a look of surprise: "How did this person end up here?"

Even the Sword Maiden of Guanlan was curious this time: "Senior Brother, do you recognize this person? I have no recollection of him at all. Junior Brother Chen, what about you?"

Elder Chen also shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

Master Xuanding then solemnly said, "Three hundred years ago, this world was a unified dynasty, and that country was incredibly powerful, showing no signs of decline whatsoever."

"But for some reason, internal strife suddenly broke out, with political parties attacking each other, eventually leading to its current state of fragmentation."

"And that person..."

Su Baichen immediately perked up, knowing that they were finally going to talk about that mysterious young man.

"That man was the guardian mage of the Great Yu Kingdom back then!"

"When the Great Yu Dynasty split apart, it was a time of chaos and countless demons took the stage, plunging the world into turmoil, whether in the mortal realm or the cultivation world."

"This Great Yu Protector of the Nation is called True Man Tianhui. Back then, he was already a great cultivator in the Returning to the Void Realm and had a very high reputation in the cultivation world. Moreover, when the Divine Continent was in turmoil, he stood up and called on the righteous path of the world to destroy the demons together."

"Back then, I was also a novice, and I followed my mentor to participate in that massive demon-slaying campaign..."

"well……"

As he was talking, he suddenly let out a long sigh.

The voice contained a sense of vicissitude and resentment.

Su Baichen suddenly realized that Xuan Ding Zhenren's worldly ties had never been severed, and he still held onto the world of three hundred years ago in his heart!

Perhaps the fact that Changchun Palace was closed for two hundred years is also related to this matter.

Su Baichen murmured, "It seems that my Changchun Palace and the Demonic Path truly have a blood feud."

Master Xuanding nodded emphatically: "That's right, since the war against the demons, the Dao and the demons are irreconcilable enemies!"

"I want you to stay at the Zhou residence, as it is the place most likely to have contact with the demonic path."

"You must immediately transmit to me any information related to the cultivation world... I will wipe out all the demons of this Immortal Abode in one fell swoop!"

This is the true meaning of Master Xuanding.

It was only at this moment that Su Baichen realized that his seemingly kind and gentle senior uncle actually had a rather irritable temper.

He accepted his task and then prepared to take his leave.

At this moment, the Sword Maiden Guanlan said regretfully, "It's a pity you don't have much time left, otherwise I could have taught you a few more sword techniques."

Su Baichen expressed his gratitude, saying, "I have already benefited immensely from the sword techniques taught to me by my martial uncle, and I would never dare to ask for more."

Guanlan Sword Maiden nodded and said, "That's true. Your swordsmanship is still in the accumulation stage, just like refining qi requires accumulating true qi."

"During this time, you can also learn some sword techniques from ordinary martial artists. These are all things that can be learned by analogy."

Su Baichen readily agreed.

He still held Guanlan Jian'ao in high esteem.

This senior martial uncle never scoffed at the sword techniques of ordinary martial artists; on the contrary, he always advised Su Baichen to use these sword techniques as a foundation to master the essence of swordsmanship.

Upon hearing this, Master Xuanding seemed to be reminded and said, "Bai Chen, this matter is not simple, and there may even be a crisis of directly facing powerful demonic forces."

"I can't let you do this for nothing. I'll wait until you complete this mission..."

Seeing his hesitation, the Sword Maiden Guanlan immediately whispered a suggestion from the side: "Give him a sword!"

"Here's a sword for you... No, junior sister, don't interrupt!"

Master Xuanding's train of thought was completely swayed. He glared at the Sword Sect junior sister, whose face was wrinkled but who seemed to be rather simple-minded.

"The transfer of the furnace in the middle stage of Qi Refining should not be difficult for you, while the best way to achieve the Five Qi Convergence in the upper stage is to cultivate five suitable Five Elements Dao techniques to nurture the five Qi in your heart."

"It would be quite troublesome for you to find or figure out how to obtain these five Five Elements Daoist techniques on your own. I'll take the liberty of rewarding you with one Five Elements Daoist technique regardless of how well you do it, how about that?"

Elder Chen scratched his head. The Five Elements Daoist techniques of Changchun Palace were all inherited from their Five Elements Sect. So they had to use their family's heritage as a reward again.

Although he kept complaining to himself, Elder Chen didn't grumble... He was used to it.

Su Baichen naturally wouldn't refuse such a good thing, and said, "Thank you, Senior Uncle."

But Master Xuanding hesitated for a moment and then said, "It still won't work. You are the pride of my Changchun Palace. You should be calmly cultivating your qi and making vigorous progress. Instead, you are distracted by these things..."

"In that case, I have three 'Purple Sun Pills' here. Taking one will increase your true energy for a year. You can take one now, and the medicinal effect will be fully exerted within a month."

A jade bottle was placed in front of Su Baichen, and inside was the 'Purple Sun Pill'.

One pill is equivalent to a year of arduous cultivation... This is absolutely a divine medicine for Su Baichen.

Moreover, its medicinal effects don't come out all at once, but rather spread out over a month... This may seem slow, but it actually helps him solidify his foundation!

It can only be said that the eldest master of Yang Sect is indeed a master alchemist; this is a truly excellent creation.

Su Baichen obediently took one pill and immediately felt it begin to take effect.

Not only is there pure and abundant spiritual energy here, but it is also constantly nourishing his physical body and increasing his vital energy.

These spiritual energies and essences were incredibly pure; he only needed to guide them with his will to completely refine them into his true energy...

His cultivation level naturally rose accordingly, and new true energy continuously flowed into his dantian, soon causing it to feel swollen.

He had already prepared for this, so he simply began to slowly circulate the increased true energy within the meridians that had already been nourished throughout his body.

This is equivalent to circulating true qi throughout the whole body, treating all the meridians of one's body as places to store qi.

This means that while constantly practicing, you are also continuously nourishing your body.

"Alright, alright, that way I can feel at ease letting you leave."

Xuan Ding Zhenren finally bid farewell to Su Baichen.

At this moment, Su Baichen only hoped that there would be more similar things... He just liked doing things for his magnanimous seniors.
