Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

As for others, Ning Xingchen didn't want to, especially those who knew he had awakened innate full soul power.

"No need today, we'll go find Uncle Jian later," Ning Xingchen said.

He had longed for the way of the sword for a long time! He didn't want to wait even a moment longer!

“But this was arranged by the sect leader, young master, you…” Ning Yu tried to persuade Ning Xingchen.

Ke Ningxingchen's attitude seemed very firm.

"Alright, the carriage outside is ready."

Before long, Ning Xingchen boarded the carriage, turned a few corners, and arrived at Sword Douluo's residence.

The mansion is called Kenshin-in!

They disembarked from the carriage and went directly into the mansion.

"Uncle Jian, are you there?"

"Uncle Jian?"

After calling for a while, no one responded.

Sword Douluo was used to being alone and usually focused on cultivation, so he was the only one living in the Sword Heart Courtyard.

"Young Master, the First Elder has probably gone to assist the Sect Master in handling sect affairs. Why don't we go back first?" Ning Yu said.

Ning Xingchen looked around and went straight to the pavilion in the courtyard.

"Then let's wait, we have nothing else to do anyway."

As he spoke, Ning Xingchen took out a book called "Complete Encyclopedia of Soul Beasts" from his soul tool and began to read it.

As a Soul Master, the most basic requirement is to be able to clearly recognize most Soul Beasts.

"Alright, young master!" Ning Yu said helplessly.

In her opinion, the young master seemed somewhat different today than usual.

My health is much better than before.

However, she attributed all of this to the benefits brought about by awakening her martial soul!

Time passed slowly, and Ning Xingchen was very focused on reading, so time flew by.

If you're hungry, Ning Yu will prepare snacks; if you're thirsty, there will be juice.

As evening approached, a flash of sword light appeared, and Sword Douluo landed in the courtyard from the air, only to find that Ning Xingchen was actually waiting for him.

He thought to himself, "Is there any need to rush the cultivation of swordsmanship?"

"Sister Ning Yu, go tell my sister that I'm with Uncle Jian, and that she doesn't need to worry," Ning Xingchen said.

“Okay!” Ning Yu turned around and left Jianxin Courtyard, because she knew that Ning Dingling would be very worried if she didn’t find Ning Xingchen when she got home.

As for Ning Xingchen's safety, she didn't need to worry at all. Within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Sword Douluo's place was definitely the safest.

Chapter 5 Why Learn Swordsmanship! The Reasons for Learning Swordsmanship!

"Uncle Jian, I've come to learn swordsmanship from you!" Ning Xingchen stated the purpose of his visit directly.

Sword Douluo glanced at the food and fruit platter on the pavilion table and knew that Ning Xingchen had been waiting for a long time.

The fact that a child who had been plagued by injuries for years wanted to learn swordsmanship reminded him of the first time he learned swordsmanship from his father when he was a child.

More than fifty years have passed in the blink of an eye. Looking at Ning Xingchen again, he is just like myself back then.

Ning Xingchen might have better talent than me, but this body...

Ning Xingchen is not suited to learning swordsmanship at the moment.

“Star, the way of the sword is still too far for you. You need to lay a solid foundation first,” Sword Douluo said.

Instead of using his health as an excuse to stop Ning Xingchen from learning swordsmanship, he changed his teaching method.

Ning Xingchen said, "Uncle Jian, I understand. It's like building a tall building. The better the foundation, the more stable the building will be, right?"

Sword Douluo looked at Ning Xingchen in surprise. It was truly remarkable that someone so young could already understand such principles.

"Xingchen, you're right. It seems you understand the importance of a solid foundation."

"Then let me test you. Why do you want to learn swordsmanship?" Sword Douluo asked.

Ning Xingchen pretended to think for a few moments, then looked up and asked Sword Douluo, "Isn't the purpose of learning swordsmanship to become stronger?"

This is a general, all-purpose answer, but it doesn't really have any problems.

Sword Douluo then asked, "Then why do you want to become stronger?"

"After I become stronger, I will protect my sister, protect the sect, and find the bad guys who killed my parents and the disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to avenge them. I will use the sword in my hand. This is the reason why I learned swordsmanship."

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is a support-type martial soul, so revenge will definitely require a sword.

"Good, very good!" Sword Douluo couldn't help but exclaim.

At this moment, Ning Dingling, who was walking at the door, also stopped. It turned out that her younger brother was thinking this way. He originally wanted to go directly into the courtyard, but then turned around and left.

As long as Ning Xingchen is healthy, she won't interfere with anything he does.

"Uncle Jian, please teach me swordsmanship," Ning Xingchen said again.

This time, however, it put Sword Douluo in a difficult position. He originally wanted to use this to make Ning Xingchen go back and think carefully about why he learned swordsmanship, and to buy some time, but Ning Xingchen's answer was too perfect.

"This... um... Star Sword, the foundation of learning swordsmanship is to first become familiar with the sword, to become familiar with your own sword. Your Star Sword has just awakened, so the first step you need to take is to become familiar with your own sword and master it."

“Uncle Jian, I understand. I’ll head back now and come back to learn from you once I’m more familiar with the sword in my hand,” Ning Xingchen said.

He wasn't stupid; he could tell that Sword Douluo was stalling, not because he didn't want to teach, but because he was worried about his health.

So he gave a reason, and Sword Douluo's reason wasn't wrong.

If you can't even control your own sword, how can you talk about learning the way of the sword?

Watching Ning Xingchen walk out of the courtyard, Sword Douluo couldn't help but sigh and say, "Xingchen, you are definitely the most talented sword genius I have ever seen."

"What you're saying is that even I... I'm not as good as you."

"Yes, my sword must become stronger, so that what I protect..."

……

As Ning Xingchen stepped out of the courtyard, Ning Yu greeted him, saying, "Young Master, the Sect Master has already returned home and asked me to wait for you here."

“Okay, let’s go back first,” Ning Xingchen said.

That evening, after having dinner prepared by her sister Ning Dingling, Ning Xingchen immediately returned to her room, sat by the window, and began cultivating by releasing the power of the stars through the Star Sword.

This time, the energy transmitted by the Star Sword arrived faster than the day before.

Just half an hour later, a gentle energy entered his body and began to repair his injured internal organs.

After a night of cultivation, Ning Xingchen's injuries had healed by about half.

I even jumped around in my room a few times after getting up this morning; my body can handle it now.

Before, I wouldn't even dare to jump.

Ning Xingchen was in a great mood; her injuries were recovering much better and faster than expected!

The shadow of injuries that plagued them over the years has been swept away.

Injuries made it difficult for him to move around every day, and also affected his physical growth.

He's shorter than his peers; at six years old, he's probably less than 1.2 meters tall.

"Hey, young master, you seem a little different than before."

As soon as Ning Xingchen opened the door, Ning Yu, who was waiting outside, noticed that Ning Xingchen was different from before. Ning Xingchen, who used to have a pale face, now had a rosy complexion.

“It must be cultivation that has made me different,” Ning Xingchen said.

With his injuries half healed, his physical condition naturally improved.

"That's great, I'll tell the sect leader this news."

Ning Dingling has been extremely busy with sect affairs these past few days, leaving very early every morning.

But Ning Yu turned around after taking only a few steps, looking somewhat embarrassed.

"Young Master, the Sect Master left the sect this morning, saying he will return in three days," Ning Yu said.

"Is something urgent? Why are you leaving so early?" Ning Xingchen asked, puzzled.

Ning Yu said, "It seems to be an urgent summons from Emperor Xue Ye of the Heavenly Dou Empire."

"Emperor Xueye?"

"Did Uncle Jian go with them?" Ning Xingchen asked.

"The sect leader was picked up by the First Elder this morning," Ning Yu replied.

Hearing that Sword Douluo was taking Ning Dingling, Ning Xingchen felt much more at ease. Xue Ye of the Heaven Dou Empire was no good either; for the past two years, he had been coveting his sister Ning Dingling and had tried several times to make her a concubine.

However, as the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Dingling would not give Xue Ye any face, but the old man seems to have never given up.

Ning Xingchen arrived in the Douluo World much earlier than usual, and Xue Ye was not the old man he appeared at the beginning of the original story.

At this time, Qian Renxue had not yet been born, and Tang Hao was only in his twenties.

There are still more than 20 years until Tang San turns six, when the story begins.

Xueye is only in her early thirties, right in the prime of her youth.

More than five years ago, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was assassinated, and the sect's only titled Douluo also sacrificed himself in that great battle.

Bone Douluo has not yet been given a title, and Sword Douluo has not yet joined. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is in dire straits.

Therefore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had no choice but to cooperate with the Heaven Dou Empire at that time.

However, it was less of a cooperation and more of a search for protection, with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doing some things for the Heaven Dou Empire.

Fortunately, Sword Douluo joined in recent years, and Bone Douluo was given a title.

Under Ning Dingling's leadership, the sect is gradually breaking free from this situation.
