I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

……

The Dark Book has no limit to cultivation level and can control people much stronger than itself, but its weakness is also obvious. Once someone with a strong sea of ​​consciousness catches the traces of the threads and cuts them off with a single stroke, it becomes a useless piece of trash.

Controlling a Void Refinement cultivator is somewhat difficult for it, but not too bad.

After Ye Qiao brought it out of the forbidden area of ​​the Sword Inquiry Sect, it absorbed a lot of blood, and its abilities gradually improved. Whenever Ye Qiao was injured, it would take the opportunity to lick her a couple of times.

Although such lewd behavior would result in a severe beating if Ye Qiao discovered it, it didn't care; it didn't care.

Holding the Dark Book, Ye Qiao knew the moment she was surrounded and hunted by the demon kings that the Dark Book could not control all the demon beasts at the same time.

It's not so powerful as to be omnipotent.

Perhaps at its peak, a single book could cause chaos, but now, after being suppressed for thousands of years, its power has been sealed, and its influence is far more than just a little bit diminished.

After discovering that the Dark Book couldn't control the field, she kept thinking about which sword technique to use to control the field.

Ye Qiao had seen many sword techniques in the library and various inheritance sites.

Those sword techniques can catch opponents off guard in one-on-one battles, but they are not group attack sword techniques.

The "Ten Thousand Swords Return to One" technique can only be used by cultivators at the Nascent Soul stage.

Or perhaps it's the final move, the Gentle Breeze Technique, capable of stopping a million soldiers?

However, for someone at the Golden Core stage, using the Gentle Breeze Technique would likely only produce a comical effect.

She was distraught and had absolutely no clue what to do.

She could still hear the sounds of several sword spirits arguing in her ears, and she couldn't help but probe into her mind's depths, listening to a few of their words.

Within the domain, Jinghong held a small, retro folding fan between her fingertips, leaned back elegantly, and looked away from Jun. "Your vulgar sword spirit only lowers my taste and aesthetics."

"But a sword spirit like you, who has no real ability and only knows how to fight, can only have a little status here by working hard like a diligent old ox for Qiaoqiao."

The Frost Sword has a hidden meaning, after all, all she does is fight.

The little girl suddenly spoke up: "No, what you said is wrong."

With a shrug, she gently pressed down on Han Shuang's shoulder, finding an ally: "That's right, he's wrong."

"If you have something to say, you can just take action," Fei Xian's slightly smiling, hypocritical voice could still be heard in his ear, "There's no need to talk it out."

Ye Qiao: "..."

What kind of situation is this??

It's not just a family misfortune; the fire in her backyard is about to reach the heavens.

Seeing the four sword spirits darting around and pulling each other's hair made Ye Qiao's already clueless mind even more hopeless.

Feed. Heavenly Dao, are you there? This house is so messy, the wind in the secret realm is so cold, she's so scared.

Four sword spirits make a spectacle, and each of them has a remarkable background. She was terrified if they started fighting. If another one came, she wondered how she would survive.

"...But, if only one more could come."

At that moment, she murmured something very quietly, and instantly thought of what sword technique she could use.

……

Outside the secret realm, the demons were forced to halt their battle as the Mingyu rampaged through the area. No one dared to make a move against this enormous creature; everyone dodged left and right, trying their best to avoid the Mingyu's massive tail swings.

With each flick of its tail, the entire space trembled; what terrifying power!

Qin Fanfan was sweating profusely. What kind of genius came up with the idea of ​​waking up the Mingyu?

No one dared to approach the crazed fish; they all clung tightly to the thin barrier behind it. Weak, pitiful, and helpless—these were the words that best described the plight of all the powerful beings. Mu Chongxi looked at those powerful beings who could command the wind and rain, including his own master, all of whom were stuck to the spatial barrier, and inexplicably felt like laughing.

But he felt that if he laughed, he would probably be the first one to be bombarded if a fight broke out, so he held back.

As the Mingyu rampaged wildly, its massive body shattered the space it had created. The barrier crumbled like a spider's web, and the enormous impact caused blood to gush from the mouths and noses of cultivators of lower cultivation levels.

Xie Chuxue shielded them with a protective shield, which mitigated the impact of the spatial explosion.

"What's the origin of this fish? It's so powerful." It can even break through the Demon Lord's spatial barrier.

I rely on.

"That was an ancient, ownerless beast, suppressed in the forbidden area for a thousand years," Xie Chuxue said. "It was captured from the North Sea by some unknown patriarch of the Changming Sect."

"At first it was just a small fish, but it grew bigger and bigger. Perhaps the founder found that it was eating too much and was about to eat our Changming Sect out of house and home, so he put it in a forbidden area and starved it for a long time."

When it was pushed in, it was just a small hill, but who would have thought it would grow so big?

It's so hungry now that it could probably devour an entire demon race.

"Isn't there any way to stop it?"

"I'm afraid that will be a bit difficult."

KFC and the young prince were still struggling to control it, but at least they had the bloodline to suppress it. With so many dragons present, the Mingyu barely managed to stop going crazy.

The barrier was shattered by the immense force of gravity, freeing countless people from their predicament.

Qin Fanfan reached out and summoned a sword. A battle was about to break out. He said coldly, "Take it back."

That's their clan's lucky charm; they can't lose it.

The little prince hurriedly agreed, patting the fish to signal it to run away quickly, otherwise Qin Fanfan would make it into soup.

Perhaps finally sensing the danger and realizing that he might not be able to provoke that group of people for the time being, the flexible and adaptable Mingyu turned around and ran away as fast as he could.

Seeing this, KFC flew down and landed steadily in the Changming Sect's ranks. The young prince glared at the bird that had deserted its post. Ao Li could only control the Mingyu and guide it towards the North Sea to avoid causing greater turmoil.

……

The troublemaking Mingyu was taken away, and Qin Fanfan simply waved her hand.

He glanced at Zhou Xingyun and Mu Chongxi out of the corner of his eye.

The sword light flashed lightly, yet it gave people a shock as if the heavens and earth had been cleaved apart, causing the two people who were staring intently to start bleeding from their mouths and noses.

Mu Chongxi quickly covered his nose and couldn't help but say, "Damn it."

This duel and sword light, which were beyond their comprehension, were too much for their minds to handle. His eyes turned bloodshot, and a faint heat flowed down his face. All the sword cultivators subconsciously closed their eyes due to this aching and stinging discomfort.

Xie Chuxue pressed down on their shoulders, increasing the pressure, her voice cold, "Look carefully."

Knowing that Xie Chuxue's main purpose in bringing them here was to witness the battle, Mu Chongxi could only struggle to open his eyes, cover the blood gushing from them, and continue watching.

To be honest, the scene was somewhat terrifying.

Suddenly he felt someone pat him on the back. He turned around in a daze and saw Zhu You gently poking his shoulder and handing him a handkerchief.

He was deeply moved when the Sword Inquiry Sect sent him a handkerchief from the front row.

Then, moved, the boy reached out his hand again and continued, "Could you give me another one? There's too much blood; I need one for each nostril."

Zhu You: "..."

Who is this person?

She handed the handkerchiefs to the sword cultivators who reacted the most. At first, they wiped the bloodstains, but when they realized they couldn't wipe them all, they simply followed Mu Chongxi's example and stuffed a handkerchief into each nostril. The group of sword fanatics continued to observe the battle with great concentration.

Xue Yu, the only alchemist among them: "..."

He almost laughed, but he quickly stopped.

In a battle between the most outstanding cultivators in the cultivation world, those with good comprehension can benefit greatly from a single battle. Therefore, the first person to enter a state of enlightenment was somewhat unexpected for everyone, and it turned out to be Zhou Xingyun.

Whether one can attain enlightenment and enter a meditative state depends on one's state of mind and comprehension.

"His comprehension is higher than all of ours?" Chu Xingzhi turned his head and stared intently at Zhou Xingyun.

How is that possible?

Mu Chongxi glanced at Chu Xingzhi and chuckled, "You think you're so great?"

Chu Xingzhi shouted too loudly. Xie Chuxue glanced at him, and that glance was exceptionally sharp and cold, immediately silencing the boy. Xie Chuxue knew what he was dissatisfied with, so she said, "Whether you can comprehend the Dao depends on your understanding of your own Dao and sword intent. Have you each fully comprehended your own Dao?"

"..."

Ye Qinghan was slightly taken aback, and then he understood.

Within a short period of time, two people entered a meditative state one after the other.

"..."

Depend on.

Now it was Mu Chongxi's turn to want to curse. Did Ye Qinghan realize something and he suddenly understand it too?

There's a saying that goes, "Southern clouds drift, northern chill lingers."

Why don't you two get together?

Seemingly noticing Mu Chongxi's confusion, Xie Chuxue patted his head and encouraged him with a smile, "Don't worry, don't worry, you just need an opportunity."

"What was the trigger?"

Xie Chuxue stroked her chin: "Sometimes, all you need to reach the Nascent Soul stage is a rare and precious treasure."

Mu Chongxi: "..." Where could he possibly find such rare and precious treasures in this godforsaken place? He said dejectedly, "You might as well just say I'm not worthy of reaching the Nascent Soul stage."

Xie Chuxue chuckled, "Wouldn't it be too much of a blow to your morale if I just said it directly? Your martial uncle does care about your mental health~"

"That junior sister..." Mu Chongxi hesitated for a moment, then said, "It seems that her starting point was much lower than all of ours."

However, he was the fastest among all of them to reach the Nascent Soul Realm.

"No one can deny your talent, Xiao Xi." Xie Chuxue's voice was gentle, and she rarely spoke like a human being. Looking at him, she said, "Your abilities are, of course, beyond question."

"Most importantly, don't compare yourself to others." He was serious for no more than three seconds: "Don't compare yourself to Ye Qiao, she's not even human."

"Oh right, right, right." Chu Xingzhi, having nothing better to do, also started fanning the flames, "After all, she has a Heavenly Spiritual Root, how can you compare to her?"

The embellishment was too obvious. Xie Chuxue chuckled and instructed, "You all keep an eye on Zhou Xingyun and don't let the demons find an opportunity to interfere with his trial."

If I'm not mistaken, this enlightenment will allow Zhou Xingyun to reach the Nascent Soul stage at the fastest possible speed.

The trial will last at least three days, and Xie Chuxue can't keep an eye on them all the time; he'll need to be there to help.

Chu Xingzhi whistled listlessly, unimpressed.

Protecting Zhou Xingyun is Mu Chongxi's responsibility, what does it have to do with me?

"Xiao Chu." After comforting one, Xie Chuxue turned to the other and earnestly advised, "Your senior brother is also in the enlightenment stage. Whether he can break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm depends on you."

Chu Xingzhi was slightly taken aback: "Rely on me?" Is he that important?

"Yes. You're the strongest here."

The boy immediately stood at attention, stopped whistling, and became alert, quickly shouting, "I'll protect them!"

Xie Chuxue knew very well that Chu Xingzhi was the kind of person who was both cowardly and loved to bark. He would try to provoke even the dogs on the roadside, but would immediately surrender when he realized that things were not going well.

To deal with him, you either need to be stronger than him and crush him in every way, or you need to use Ye Qinghan to control him.

After all, he absolutely adores Chu Xingzhi!
