Ten Thousand Sword Masters

sizzle~

As rocks fell, the white snake accelerated its attack, flicking its tongue to strike Zhang Jianyun and the others.

boom!

"Help me!"

Suddenly, Liu Fei, who was unable to dodge in time, was hit by a falling rock. The white snake that attacked Liu Fei instantly coiled around him, flicking its tongue to devour him.

boom!

Zhang Jianyun kicked a rock at the white snake that was attacking him, then hurriedly ran to Liu Fei's side.

With a clang, as if anxious to save his friend, Zhang Jianyun slashed off the head of the white snake that was entangled with Liu Fei.

"Thanks!"

Without the white snake binding him, Liu Fei pushed away the falling rock that had hit him and then sprang to his feet.

call out!

At this moment, the white snake that had attacked Zhang Jianyun earlier flew over again.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei joined forces to attack the white snake.

The two men's knives struck the snake's back repeatedly, leaving several knife marks.

"Jianyun, can you unleash the same power as before to kill this white snake?" Liu Fei asked.

Zhang Jianyun shook his head and replied loudly, "No, that was an exceptional performance under duress."

"Then you hold off this white snake, and I'll go help Boss Yang kill that man in black robes." After saying that, Liu Fei slashed at the white snake with his sword, then dodged out of the battle and ran towards Yang Changping.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

After Zhang Jianyun launched his attack, he discovered that the white snake's seventh inch was relatively soft, and it seemed that if he exerted enough force, he could cut the white snake in two at its seventh inch.

blah blah blah!

After several consecutive slashes at the white snake's vital spot, the white snake's attack weakened considerably.

Zhang Jianyun was overjoyed. Seizing the opportunity, he used all his strength to slash the white snake at its vital spot.

laugh!

The white snake was instantly cut in two by Zhang Jianyun. After trembling on the ground, it showed no signs of life.

"Everyone attack the white snake's vital spot, where it's more vulnerable."

After succeeding, Zhang Jianyun hurriedly shouted to remind his colleagues who were still fighting the white snake.

Afterwards, Zhang Jianyun rushed to Yang Changping's location, intending to join Liu Fei in helping Yang Changping kill the man in black.

"You have received 30/320 hostility points from the man in black robes."

As soon as Zhang Jianyun joined the battle between Yang Changping and the man in black robes, he received a notification from the system, which made him secretly happy.

"Kill them!"

In high spirits, Zhang Jianyun drew his knife and charged at the man in black.

"Hmph, ants."

The black-robed man who was fighting Yang Changping saw Zhang Jianyun charging over, snorted coldly, then waved his left hand, sending a beam of light shooting towards Zhang Jianyun and knocking him away.

"Wow!"

Zhang Jianyun, who had been blasted away by the bright light and fallen to the ground, screamed in pain, "What kind of power is this?"

"Cough cough~"

At this moment, Liu Fei, who had already been knocked to the ground by the man in black robes, crawled to Zhang Jianyun's side, and with a forceful effort, leaned against Zhang Jianyun's back.

"You were also blasted away by the Black Faction's crystal power, weren't you? That's the power of the History Sea Realm. Although that giant-eyed spider also had the cultivation of the History Sea Realm, it didn't quite know how to use crystal power, which is why you were able to take advantage of it. But this black-robed man is different, cough cough." Liu Fei said, panting.

Zhang Jianyun helped Liu Fei up, then kept a close eye on the battlefield, looking for an opportunity to act.

Although the man in black robes was experienced and skilled in combat, everyone makes mistakes, especially in such a fierce battle. He could easily reveal a weakness if he wasn't careful.

Once Liu Fei stopped coughing, Zhang Jianyun slowly stood up, gripped the fish-patterned knife tightly, and stealthily approached the man in black.

Seeing Zhang Jianyun's actions, Liu Fei's eyes widened. He felt that Zhang Jianyun was a stranger. When did his neighbor become so fearless of death?

"Yang Changping, what's the point of being a mere Pavilion Master of Cangxi Pavilion? You can only manage a few people. Join my Cangsheng Left Hand, and I guarantee you'll become a big shot who manages hundreds of people," the black-robed man tempted.

Yang Changping laughed upon hearing this, "You're all alone, so what makes you think you can guarantee anything to me?"

"Who says I'm all alone? I just haven't mobilized my men," the man in black robes said angrily.

Just then, taking advantage of the fact that the man in black robes was focused on Yang Changping, Zhang Jianyun came up behind the man in black robes and crept along the falling rocks, intending to deliver a fatal blow.

Observing Zhang Jianyun's actions, Yang Changping began to deceive the man in black robes, thus diverting his attention.

"Then tell me, how many people are under your jurisdiction?"

The man in black robes smiled smugly upon hearing this. "If you let me go this time and allow me to successfully build the altar and summon hundreds of monsters, then I can become the flag lord in charge of 300 people."

"Really? If I join the Left Hand of All Beings, what can I be?" Yang Changping asked deliberately.

"Banner leader, a banner leader like me, commanding 300 people, is far more prestigious than your position as some kind of pavilion master," the man in black robes said excitedly.

"Is that so? How many flag leaders does your Left Hand have now?" Yang Changping continued his fierce attack while showing a hint of interest.

"Several thousand or tens of thousands, that's not a lot for a large organization like ours, but it's still a leadership position. It's still more prestigious than a small village lord like you." The man in black robes spoke in a weaker tone, sounding somewhat unsure of himself.

Just then, Zhang Jianyun arrived at a boulder behind the man in black robes. Seeing that the man in black robes had not noticed him, he exchanged a glance with Yang Chang, then suddenly leaped up and slashed at the man in black robes' back with his sword.

The man in black robes turned around and saw Zhang Jianyun swinging his sword at him, and he was furious. He suddenly swung his hand and unleashed a burst of crystal energy, sending Zhang Jianyun flying.

At this moment, taking advantage of the black-robed man's distraction, Yang Changping launched a fierce attack and almost injured the black-robed man.

Despite being knocked to the ground, Zhang Jianyun was not discouraged. He took a few deep breaths, got up, and continued to sneak towards the man in black robes.

Liu Fei was shocked to see this; he had never imagined that his neighbor was so brave.

Immediately, he dusted himself off and, imitating Zhang Jianyun, stealthily approached the man in black robes.

Arriving once again at the boulder behind the man in black robes, Zhang Jianyun saw Liu Fei also sneaking over. He then gestured to Liu Fei with his eyes, indicating that they should attack the man in black robes together.

Liu Fei understood and nodded to Zhang Jianyun.

Boom boom boom!

shhhhhh!

blah blah blah!

At this moment, the battle between Yang Changping and the man in black robes had reached a fever pitch, with both men leaving wounds on each other. The shockwaves generated by their fight continued to spread in all directions.

call!

Zhang Jianyun seized the opportunity and suddenly leaped into the air. Seeing this, Liu Fei also leaped up and attacked the man in black robes.

shhhhh!

Enraged, the man in black robes unleashed two bursts of crystal energy, attacking Zhang Jianyun and Liu Fei.

With a bang, Liu Fei was sent flying.

Zhang Jianyun, however, had gained experience. He quickly bent over in mid-air to dodge the crystal energy attack, and then slashed at the back of the black-robed man with his sword.

The man in black was surprised, not expecting Zhang Jianyun to dodge the attack.

Just as he was distracted and about to unleash another crystal attack on Zhang Jianyun, Yang Changping seized the opening in his defense, instantly closing in and severing the black-robed man's left arm with a single strike.

"You have received 30/350 hostility points from the man in black robes."

At the same time, Zhang Jianyun received another system notification.

"what!"

The man in black robes let out a huge roar of pain and retreated rapidly. Yang Changping pressed his advantage and, without giving the man in black robes a chance to escape, beheaded him with a single stroke.

Immediately afterwards, Yang Changping leaped several times and with a few clangs of his sword, killed the white snake that was attacking the other armored soldiers.

With a leap, Yang Changping arrived above the altar, swung his sword fiercely, and destroyed the altar with a single blow.

After the altar was destroyed, a void crack appeared on the ground. Yang Changping then used his crystal power to close the void crack.

"Zhang Jianyun, you did a great job. You made great contributions in killing the giant-eyed spider and this black-robed man."

Yang Changping gave Zhang Jianyun an appreciative look, then took out a secret manual from his pocket and tossed it to him.

"This is the secret manual, the Zhou Tian Xin Fa, which can help you cultivate to the Shi Hai Realm."

As soon as Yang Changping finished speaking, the other soldiers looked at Zhang Jianyun with envy, their eyes filled with greed, wishing they could have the secret manual for themselves.

Seeing the appearance of the other armored soldiers, Zhang Jianyun hurriedly stuffed the secret manual into his bosom.

"Everyone, clean up the battlefield and burn the corpses," Yang Changping ordered.

Then, Yang Changping beckoned Zhang Jianyun over, circulated his internal energy, and used his crystal power to carve a pattern on the back of Zhang Jianyun's left hand.

"You need to pay attention to the back of your left hand. I will use it to send messages to everyone. Once you cultivate to the Sea of ​​History realm and possess crystal power, you will also be able to use the text network to send messages to others," Yang Changping said.

"Let's give your Wenluo a number: the two characters 'Cangxi' plus a four-digit number, so I can link my Wenluo with yours," Yang Changping said.

Zhang Jianyun thought for a moment and said, "Let's call it Cangxi 3000."

"This number is unique, so you can use it. My network is already connected to yours. I'll send you a message to show you. My number is Cangxi 1119," Yang Changping said, sending six words to Zhang Jianyun.

"Well done, kid."

Seeing the number "Cangxi 1119" first flash on the back of his hand, then the text appeared, and then disappeared again, Zhang Jianyun felt a bit curious. It seemed that life in this world would not be boring.

After cleaning up the battlefield, Yang Changping gave everyone an early holiday so they could go home and rest.

"Why are you back so early?"

Cao Fen saw that Zhang Jianyun had returned early and asked him with some concern.

"We killed some enemies today, so the Pavilion Master has given us an early holiday," Zhang Jianyun replied.

Upon hearing this, Cao Fen's expression became tense. "You were sent into battle on your very first day? You weren't injured, were you?"

"They're just small fry, how could they get hurt?"

Zhang Jianyun said it casually, and then went to his room.

He closed the door, excitedly took out the secret manual, the Zhou Tian Xin Fa (a mental cultivation method), and began to study it carefully.

"Within heaven and earth lies crystalline power, formless yet existing in all directions. To break through the sea of ​​history, body and mind must move in unison towards the heart."

The very first sentence of the Zhou Tian Xin Fa (a mental cultivation method) captivated Zhang Jianyun.
