I work as a veterinarian in the mountains, and at the beginning of the game, I find Daji (a legendar

"No, no, no, appetite and cultivation level have absolutely nothing to do with each other!" Seeing Luo Xin misleading people again, Ruyi sighed, rubbing her forehead.

"Alright, alright, just listen to the first half of what Master Luo Xin said. As for the rest, just pretend you didn't hear it."

"Mrs. Ruyi, I know Mrs. Luoxin is just joking with me~ Mrs. Ruyi, please don't be so serious."

Chen Haohao first grinned at Luo Xin, then quickly ran to Ruyi and said, "Master Ruyi, my cultivation has now reached the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm. Could you please help me test my sword? I want to see what level I can achieve now."

"Testing the sword?"

Looking at Chen Honghao in front of her, Ruyi's eyes were filled with surprise.

However, this surprise quickly turned into relief.

After all, children will eventually grow up. Instead of giving pointers like before, it's better to let her understand her newfound power through practical experience.

"Alright, then let your master's wife take a look at your sword."

With a wave of her hand, Ruyi sent a gust of mountain wind carrying her and Chen Haohao to the small training ground in the backyard.

This is also where Chen Haohao usually practices her cultivation.

"I'm sorry, Master's wife."

Taking a deep breath, Chen Haohao bowed to Ruyi about twenty feet away, then drew her sword from her waist and moved swiftly across the training ground with a speed that was difficult for ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators to achieve.

"Your movement is good, and your footwork has improved a lot compared to before."

Satisfied with Chen Haohao's performance, Ruyi nodded her head and offered her comments.

"Hmph, this is just the beginning, Master's wife!"

After quickly closing the distance between himself and Ruyi with swift movements, Haohao's longsword suddenly transformed into a point of cold light, stabbing towards Ruyi's brow.

Under the guidance of her masters' wives, Haohao had already grasped the essence of swordsmanship—fast, ruthless, and accurate!

Therefore, with this move, she went straight for Ruyi's vital points.

"Very good. You didn't hold back just because the person testing the sword was your master's wife. That's excellent."

An approving look flashed across her eyes, and then, seemingly slowly but actually quickly, Ruyi raised her right hand and extended her index finger to block the tip of the sword that Hao Hao was thrusting at her.

"So strong!"

Although Hao Hao already knew that her master's wives were very powerful, she didn't know that they had become this strong.

In particular, Ruyi's act of blocking Chen Haohao's full-force sword strike with just one finger deeply shocked the girl.

However, Chen Haohao soon had no time to think about these things anymore.

As a faint sword intent rose, Chen Haohao's pupils shrank sharply, and she quickly retreated.

Immediately afterwards, Ruyi's fingertips drew out a sword aura as white as jade.

Although her action seemed to be as simple as just waving her finger.

But that sword intent was by no means weak.

After brushing past Chen Haohao, the sword intent struck straight towards a deserted mountain in the distance.

After the impact hit the mountaintop, the surrounding space began to creak and groan.

Immediately afterwards, the space collapsed and then rapidly contracted.

In the blink of an eye, half of the mountaintop disappeared.

It wasn't sliced ​​off by sword energy, but rather, a piece was abruptly and suddenly gone out of nowhere!

If this were in the comics, Chen Haohao's chin would probably be dragging on the ground.

"Ruyi, what is this?"

"This is a sword intent I created after integrating my innate talent. It's called the White Jade Devouring Heaven Sword Intent. What do you think?"

"The White Jade Devouring Heaven Sword Intent?"

Looking at the mountain peak, which was now only about two-thirds intact, Chen Haohao nervously swallowed a large mouthful of saliva.

"Master's wife, what if that sword energy had hit me just now..."

"Don't worry, your master's wife will take care of it."

"I was very careful. I deliberately avoided your strike, and I also greatly reduced the force I used."

"And this is after holding back a lot of force?"

With a twitch of her eyelids, Chen Haohao immediately exclaimed in her heart that this was outrageous!

To this, Ruyi simply nodded calmly: "Well, after all, you are our precious disciple and our adopted daughter, so of course your master's wife wouldn't bear to hurt you. That sword energy just now probably only used less than 10% of her strength. If she had used more force, even the aftershocks of the sword energy would probably have wiped you out."

"Master's wife, please don't say such terrifying things with a kind smile on your face!"

"The disparity in strength is too great, that's definitely why." At this moment, Chen Yuze also walked into the training ground:

"Also, Ruyi, you've made too much of a commotion. Aren't you afraid that Qianya's parents will be so frightened by this that they'll come to Baifang Peak again?"

"But I was extremely careful when I made my move!"

"You probably don't have any concept of the word 'be careful' at all."

Helplessly rubbing his forehead, Chen Yuze then continued to say to his adopted daughter, "Alright, alright, you're probably not going to get any results from testing your swordsmanship with Ruyi and the others. Why don't you go and have your master's wife, Zhen Mi, practice with you? She just broke through to the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm not long ago, so you should gain more from testing your swordsmanship with her."

"But hasn't Master Zhen Mi been busy writing her storybooks lately? Won't what I'm doing disturb her?"

"Well, actually, your Master Zhen Mi has always wanted to do something for you. It's just that she feels her cultivation level is too low, so she's been too embarrassed to ask. If you take the initiative to approach her, she definitely won't refuse. Besides, I heard that Zhen Mi recently comprehended a kind of sword intent, so you two can exchange some insights."

"Alright, then I'll go find Master Zhen Mi right now!"

352. Chen Yuze: I am indeed very vulgar.

It must be said that Chen Yuze's suggestions to Chen Haohao were very correct, pertinent, and insightful.

So, Chen Haohao only tentatively mentioned the sword test to her master Zhen Mi, and Zhen Mi immediately put down her pen and paper and came to the training ground with her.

"Alright, alright. Although my understanding of swordsmanship is still quite different from that of your other mistresses, don't worry, I will definitely practice swordsmanship with you wholeheartedly."

"Then I'll leave it to Master Zhen Mi."

Looking at Zhen Mi, who was facing her with her hands behind her back, Chen Haohao politely bowed before starting her second round of sword testing for the day.

Unlike the other mistresses, although Zhen Mi's cultivation level was also higher than Hao Hao's, the difference was still relatively limited.

To put it another way, in Chen Haohao's heart, Zhen Mi is at most a towering mountain that is difficult to see in its entirety.

Unlike the other mistresses, hers was like a vast and boundless galaxy.

Thanks to this, Chen Haohao felt much less pressure when she tested her swordsmanship with Master Zhen Mi.

Not only are her steps much lighter, but the accuracy and power of her swordsmanship have also improved considerably.

This shows that the effect of suppressing one's cultivation level is indeed very significant when cultivators are fighting.

"Master Zhen Mi, I'm coming!"

With a flick of her long sleeves, a streak of azure sword energy transformed into a giant crescent moon, hurtling straight toward Zhen Mi.

This sword strike is called Crescent Moon Rush! It is a move that Chen Haohao created herself over the past few months based on her understanding of the Bamboo Forest Sword Intent!

If Zhen Mi were replaced by any other cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, they would probably be terrified and run away in terror by this sword strike.

Of course, Zhen Mi now has seen her share of ups and downs alongside Chen Yuze.

Although they were surprised by Chen Haohao's swordsmanship talent, they were only surprised.

Don't forget, Chen Yuze's bamboo forest sword dance painting was drawn by Zhen Mi, stroke by stroke, while watching him.

If we set aside her talent in swordsmanship and only consider her understanding of that painting, Zhen Mi might not be weaker than Hao Hao.

Faced with the crescent-shaped sword energy, Zhen Mi simply reached out and used her magic to retrieve the writing brush she used to write stories from a distance.

Then, Zhen Mi seemingly casually flicked her brush, and the ink on the brush tip splashed freely towards the crescent-shaped sword energy.

Just as Chen Haohao was wondering how Zhen Mi's mistress was going to use ink to block his crescent sword energy, the ink that was being splashed in the air suddenly began to stir.

In just a short while, it transformed into countless 'ink swords' across the sky!

"This move is called 'Splashing Ink to Form a Sword'."

With a slight smile, she unleashed a flurry of ink-black swords that flew straight towards the crescent-shaped sword aura. With overwhelming force, she easily shattered the crescent-shaped sword aura several feet away from Zhen Mi!

"Splashed ink... turns into a sword!?"

Seeing that the crescent-shaped sword energy that had shattered his attack ceased its assault and instead focused on the black swords surrounding Master Zhen Mi, Chen Haohao gave a wry smile and then abandoned the sword test.

She knew that a true master could wield a wooden limb with greater power than any divine weapon.

But Chen Haohao never imagined that the seemingly soft and fragile ink could be used as a sword.

With just this level of understanding of the 'sword', she was already completely defeated by Master Zhen Mi.

"Don't be discouraged, just relax."

Looking at the dejected girl in front of him, Chen Yuze patted her shoulder and then comforted her, saying, "Although you lost this sword trial, the experience and insights you gained from it will make you stronger, won't it?"

"But Father, compared to my master's wives, I'm really weak. And after today's sword test, I feel like I'm stuck in the same place, making no progress. Father, do you really think I can defeat Senior Brother Shuogen in the sect competition?"

"Why not? Of course you can! Don't forget, you're a disciple of the Chen family."

Reaching out, Chen Yuze flicked Hao Hao's smooth forehead and couldn't help but laugh, "You know, those who have been guiding your cultivation these past few days and constantly testing their swords with you are all monstrous demons who dominate their respective regions in the Hundred Thousand Mountains... I mean, the strongest. Even Zhen Mi, whose cultivation is the weakest, is invincible among her peers. As long as the opponent isn't an absurdly strong monster, even killing enemies of higher levels isn't difficult for her. The reason you feel like you're standing still is because you're far too far behind your master's wives in terms of cultivation. And such a gap can't be bridged overnight. Hao Hao, you've chosen the wrong benchmark."

"You chose the wrong reference point?" Chen Haohao blinked, seemingly not quite understanding what Chen Yuze meant.

Chen Yuze didn't keep her in suspense. After all, his adopted daughter was, in a way, quite stubborn. Rather than hinting at things indirectly, he figured it was better to be direct and explain things clearly to her.

"That's right, you've chosen the wrong benchmark. You're always comparing yourself to your master's wives, which is obviously not good. You should compare yourself to your fellow disciples. Don't forget, you broke through from the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm to the Nascent Soul realm in just one week. In addition, you also successfully comprehended the sword intent and used it as a guide to develop your own unique sword technique."

Chen Yuze took a sip of the tea that Chi Lian handed him, and then continued, "Just this alone is something your fellow disciples can't even dream of. Perhaps in their eyes, you're gradually becoming like your masters' wives, an existence as vast as the starry sky?"

"Can I become like the mistresses?"

"Of course, I, your godfather, never lie to women."

"But Father, I am your adopted daughter! If you want to marry me, that would be a violation of ethics and moral principles."

"???"

No, are there no people from your Qionghua Immortal Sect with normal brains?

What the hell is all this?!
