Traveling Through the Heavens: Intercepting Duan Yu at the Beginning

Xiahou laughed loudly towards the sky, his laughter full of joy.

Although he was forced back by Yan Chixia, Yan Chixia used the power of the Heavenly Man Realm. The two of them were competing in swordsmanship rather than cultivation, so Yan Chixia was naturally the loser.

"Yes, I lost."

"Xiahou, congratulations, you finally got what you wanted!"

Yan Chixia sighed. Although he lived in seclusion in the mountains and devoted himself to practicing Taoism, he still felt a little regretful when he was defeated in the sword art that he was good at.

"So this is the sword heart is clear!"

"Although my goal is still to defeat you, the difference from before is that before, I defeated you to gain fame, but now it's different."

"Now, I only pursue the highest peak of swordsmanship. I defeated you with the goal of improving my swordsmanship."

"Yan Chixia, all I have in my sight is the pinnacle of swordsmanship, and you, you only know how to hide in this shabby temple. Your sword has lost its former sharpness."

Xiahou sheathed his sword, his eyes full of pride and disdain.

"maybe!"

Hearing this, Yan Chixia lowered his head dejectedly. He retired to Lanruo Temple, saying that it was to practice Taoism, but the truth was only known to him.

Yan Chixia was also hurt by the court. With treacherous ministers in power, he had no way to serve the country. No matter how sharp his sword was, it was of no use.

Therefore, Yan Chixia chose to leave the dark court.

His swordsmanship was also affected by his state of mind and was no longer as sharp as before.

"It seems that you have had some adventure!"

Yan Chixia looked at Xiahou with burning eyes, with a hint of exploration in his eyes.

"Yes, today!"

"On the way here, I met a master who pointed out my problem right away."

"That master is very strong, but I don't know how strong he is. He only used two fingers to defeat my sword move."

"You know I admire the strong very much, so I will naturally listen to what that master says."

"So, I found a place to think carefully about my problem, and finally... I realized what my problem was."

Xiahou didn't say anything else, but Yan Chixia understood.

It was because he realized the problem that Xiahou reflected on it and found the right path for himself.

"I see, there are actually such powerful people in this world. I was really ignorant before."

Yan Chixia has traveled all over the country for many years, and has always believed that his strength is not invincible, but he has few rivals.

But now it seems that there are still many hidden powerful people in this world.

clap clap...

A round of applause rang out from Lanruo Temple, and Chen Fei stepped out with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Yes, I thought you would be blinded by fame and fortune, but you are able to see everything clearly. You are still curable."

As Chen Fei spoke to himself, Yan Chixia frowned and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

However, Xia Hou, who was standing by, showed an excited expression. He looked at Chen Fei who was slowly approaching, bent his knees and knelt on one knee: "Xia Hou, thank you for your guidance, senior."

"If it weren't for the senior, Xia Hou wouldn't have achieved what he has today!"

Chen Fei gave Xia Hou guidance, letting him know that he had taken the wrong path and understand the true meaning of swordsmanship. This was a great favor.

There is nothing wrong in saying that Chen Fei is Xiahou's "half-master", and he deserves Xiahou's kneeling.

"What? You said he was the one who guided you and helped you successfully understand the true meaning of swordsmanship?"

"But he...but he is not a..."

Yan Chixia was shocked. He wanted to say that Chen Fei was just an ordinary person, so where did he get such strength from?

But when he came to his senses, he suddenly remembered that no matter when Chen Fei just arrived or when he appeared in the courtyard at this moment, he had never sensed Chen Fei's presence.

There is only one reason why he can do this, Chen Fei's strength is very strong, so strong that it is beyond Yan Chixia's perception.

"Yes, it is this senior!"

"I never thought that Senior is also in this temple. It's really fate."

"Yan Chixia, could it be that you have known this senior for a long time?"

Xiahou's face was full of anticipation. He was able to understand his swordsmanship just by listening to a few words from Chen Fei. If Chen Fei could give him some advice, wouldn't he be able to reach a higher level?

"I don't know him. He just arrived a few hours earlier than you!"

Yan Chixia shook his head. He was too embarrassed to tell Xiahou about his previous attitude towards Chen Fei. If Xiahou knew that he was blind, he would probably be ridiculed again.

"I never thought you were such a great master. I, the Taoist priest, am truly blind!"

Yan Chixia pursed her lips and said to Fade Chen!

"That's fine. People like me who practice cultivation should follow our hearts. Why should we have so many rules?"

"Besides, the reason you asked me to leave was because of my consideration."

"This Lanruo Temple is filled with demonic energy. If I were just an ordinary person, I would probably die here!"

Fade Chen waved his hand and said nonchalantly!

"Oh? You can actually sense the demonic energy here. Could it be that... you are also a cultivator?"

Yan Chixia's eyes lit up, and a hint of curiosity appeared in them.

Even a martial artist at the Grandmaster level could not detect the presence of demonic energy, but Fade Chen was able to tell it out without a single word, which was obviously not simple!

Chapter 257: Exchanging Techniques and Preaching

"Yes, I can indeed sense the presence of demonic energy."

"My cultivation system is quite complex. You can say I am a warrior, or you can say I am a cultivator."

"Because I combined the ways of martial arts and cultivation, I embarked on a new path!"

Chen Fei said this without hesitation. Xia Hou didn't understand what he meant, but Yan Chixia's face had already changed drastically.

"What? Combining martial arts with the way of cultivating immortality, this..."

Yan Chixia was breathing heavily. What Fade Chen said was something he had never imagined, and even seemed impossible to him.

They are clearly two different paths, how can they be integrated?

“There is nothing in this world that is impossible. It just depends on whether you want to do it or not.”

Fade Chen didn't say much. He was willing to reveal his path to becoming a martial immortal, but he had no intention of sharing it, at least not now.

"Yan Chixia, I'm here to find you."

"Although I have created my own path, I still need to learn from the strengths of many schools. I have accumulated enough in the path of martial arts, but I am relatively lacking in the path of immortal cultivation."

"I'm quite interested in your cultivation techniques, so I'd like to borrow them to read."

Upon hearing this, Yan Chixia's face changed drastically. He subconsciously tightened the sword in his hand, ready to run away if the situation got bad.

"Of course, I won't let you suffer any loss."

"The immortal cultivation technique I practice is called the 'Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing'. In terms of power and level, it should not be inferior to yours."

"If you're willing, we can exchange what we have."

"I can even give you some pointers on the path of martial arts!"

Fortunately, Chen Fei's subsequent words made Yan Chixia feel a little relieved. Fortunately, Chen Fei did not intend to rob, otherwise, with Chen Fei's strength that was difficult to understand, he might really have no good solution.

Yan Chixia lowered his head to think, while Xiahou beside him already looked anxious.

In his opinion, Chen Fei's conditions were not bad. If he were Yan Chixia, he would have agreed immediately and would not have hesitated for so long.

"Well, since you have said so, I would be ungrateful if I don't agree!"

Fortunately, Yan Chixia finally agreed to Chen Fei's request to exchange the immortal skills.

Yan Chixia's martial arts skills were not acquired from becoming a disciple, but were obtained by chance while he was traveling in the martial arts world.

Therefore, Yan Chixia had nothing to worry about exchanging his martial arts skills with others.

After the deal was done, the two men sat down on the ground in the night. They took out the immortal ways they had practiced and exchanged them, verifying each other's knowledge and sharing what they had.

As for Xiahou, he did not leave, but took the initiative to walk to the gate to protect the two of them.

After a while, Fade Chen finished absorbing the skills given by Yan Chixia, and he slowly let out a breath.

It has to be said that in terms of the lethality of the martial arts alone, Yan Chixia's martial arts is better than the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing", and the opponent's martial arts is more like the path of a sword immortal.

The Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing, on the other hand, is more neutral and is more targeted at restraining ghosts and monsters.

The two cultivation methods each have their own strengths.

"Your Excellency's 'Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing' is truly profound. If I could learn it, I'm afraid I would be able to deal with these evil spirits more easily."

Yan Chixia only took a brief look at the "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing", but he benefited a lot from it and knew that it was a powerful martial art.

"Your skills are quite good and powerful. I have gained a lot from them!"

Fade Chen nodded slightly, a smile on his face.

"I see that although you practice the way of immortality, you haven't fallen behind in the way of martial arts. Coincidentally, I know a little bit about the way of the sword and have some experience, so I'll share it with you!"

"Xia Hou, come along too!"

Chen Fei glanced at Xia Hou who was guarding the door and said lightly!

Anyway, they are all talking, one is listening, and both are also listening.

When you reach Fade Chen's level, occasionally helping people at a lower level is also a kind of pleasure!

Xiahou's eyes lit up. He had been waiting for so long just for this opportunity.

Hearing Fade Chen asking him to listen to the sermon together, Xiahou immediately came over obediently and sat cross-legged on the ground like the other two.

"Kendo, in my opinion..."

Chen Fei shared with them some of his sword-fighting experiences, picking out some that the two of them could digest and comprehend.

Although it was only a small part, it still sounded profound to the two of them. Both Xiahou and Yan Chixia were deeply immersed in it.

Yan Chixia was already at the celestial realm, and he had already majored in the way of immortality, so the way of swordsmanship was just the icing on the cake for him.

But Xiahou on the side was listening with fascination, obviously benefiting a lot.

Even the aura on his body was constantly fluctuating, and the next moment he suddenly broke through to the late Grandmaster stage.

Before, Xia Hou was only at the early stage of Grandmaster. However, just by listening to Chen Fei's sermon, he broke through two small realms in succession, which shows how much he had gained.

After the breakthrough, Xiahou slowly opened his eyes, his face showing uncontrollable excitement. If he could follow Chen Fei and listen to his teachings every day, he even felt that he could break through to a higher realm at a very fast speed.

Just when Xiahou wanted to continue listening, a chaotic sound of footsteps came from outside.

"Huh? Why did he come to Lanruo Temple after all?"

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, a puzzled look on his face.

The next moment, a panicked figure ran in from outside Lanruo Temple.

Ning Caichen was in a mess, his clothes were torn by the branches, and even his handsome face was covered with many small cuts.

After breaking into Lanruo Temple, Ning Caichen saw three people in the courtyard, one of whom was the swordsman who killed people in front of him during the day. He couldn't help but be shocked.

But when he saw Chen Fei, a look of joy immediately appeared on his face.

"Brother Chen, why are you here?"

Ning Caichen started shouting. Xiahou, who was interrupted, wanted to get angry, but when he saw that the person knew Chen Fei, he immediately restrained his temper.

"Brother Ning, didn't you go to Guobei County to collect the debt?"

"Why are you running out into the wilderness so late at night? Aren't you afraid of being eaten by wolves, tigers or leopards?"

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows and asked curiously.

"Brother Chen, don't mention it. The silver I collected almost killed me!"

Ning Caichen shook his head bitterly. He did not hide anything and told the whole story of how he was killed by a group of robbers after receiving the silver.
