Chapter 327 Heart Sword Realm
He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the situation in front of him with a hint of confusion on his face.
"It's really weird. I'm only one step away. Why is there no reaction at all?" Chen Li wanted to circulate his spiritual energy and concentrate his sword heart, but ended in failure.
Every time the spiritual energy entered the Dantian and condensed, an unknown force would suddenly break up the sword heart, as if it was determined not to let it condense.
To be honest, this was a situation that Chen Li had never encountered before. Even in his mental method, there was no record of such a situation.
Could it be that I did something that caused something to go wrong in the Cloud Sword Technique I was practicing?
Various questions echoed in his mind, but he couldn't figure out the reason. Was he going to stop here?
It was clearly just one step away. As long as he could condense the 100th sword heart, he would be able to begin to fuse them into a heart sword. In this way, the Cloud Sword Technique would be complete. But he was stuck at this step.
Even now, he found that he could not use the sword heart in his body. Apart from being able to sense existence, it had no other function.
All these situations made Chen Li feel very strange.
At this time, he shifted his attention to the long sword under the willow tree not far away. The long sword was still attracting him.
He glanced at his current location, not knowing whether he would be injured by the sword energy again this time, just like before.
But he did not hesitate for too long and quickly took the first step forward.
As soon as he took a step forward, he felt a strong threat approaching.
With just a flash, he avoided the first sword attack, and a loud noise was heard not far behind him.
If he took this attack head-on, he would be injured no matter how strong he was. It seemed that if he wanted to reach the long sword, he had to pass this sword energy test.
With every step he took, Chen Li could feel a sharp sword energy coming at him. As he went deeper, the sword energy became sharper and the amount continued to increase.
Chen Li didn't know what was going on, but his sensitivity to sword energy became extremely sharp. Even before the sword energy was activated, he could sense which direction it was coming from.
In this way, relying on his precise intuition, he got closer and closer to the long sword, and soon he was not far from the long sword.
Now Chen Li was only a few steps away from the long sword. The sword energy around him had dissipated, and instead, the scabbard that had pierced into the soil was slowly flying out.
Whoosh! A beam of light suddenly flew over, causing Chen Li to frown and quickly dodge the attack.
But the scabbard did not stop. After the first attack missed, it immediately launched a second attack, and the speed was even faster than before.
Chen Li was constantly dodging, but found that no matter how he dodged, the scabbard had no intention of stopping attacking.
Could it be that this is not about dodging, but about suppressing the scabbard? If so, why not give it a try?
Although he couldn't activate the Cloud Sword Technique, he could still use his spiritual energy, so when the scabbard launched the next attack, he immediately circulated the spiritual energy in his hands.
His fingertips turned into a sharp sword, and he suddenly slashed out a sharp sword energy at the scabbard in front of him.
Bang! The sword energy and the scabbard collided with each other, bursting out an astonishing spiritual energy, and even produced sound waves around.
The scabbard simply stabilized its shape and then rushed forward again.
Chen Li grinned and looked at the scabbard getting closer and closer. This was the opportunity he had been waiting for.
When the scabbard reached in front of Chen Li, he suddenly raised his right hand, reached forward, and actually grabbed the scabbard directly.
The violent spiritual energy made Chen Li feel extreme pain in his palms. Although he had clearly covered his palms with spiritual energy, and he was also blessed with dragon bones and dragon blood, he would not suffer much damage at all .
Now, this scabbard can actually cause him to endure such severe pain, which is naturally very surprising.
Chen Li took a deep breath, and an even more powerful spiritual energy burst out from his body, suppressing the scabbard that wanted to escape his control.
"Since you have been caught by me, you will never have a chance to escape!" Chen Li growled and gathered all the spiritual energy in his hands.
This stalemate did not last long. After only half an hour, the scabbard stopped moving and became very quiet.
Looking at the black scabbard in his hand, Chen Li couldn't help rubbing it. The scabbard was made of pure wood, but it was extremely strong. It was also accompanied by a very rich aura and even a hint of vitality, as if it were a living thing.
Chen Li turned his head and looked in a direction not far away. At this time, the long sword over there had begun to move.
He began to make preparations. Now that he had control of the scabbard, the next step was to deal with the long sword.
Even the scabbard is so difficult to deal with, I'm afraid it would be even more difficult to deal with the long sword.
The long sword made a buzzing sound, and at this moment it suddenly flew out, suddenly slashing out a sharp sword energy.
Chen Li's eyes widened. The speed of this attack was faster than he had imagined. Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise it would be really troublesome.
Seeing the sword energy coming, he dodged it almost immediately. He thought he had escaped, but found that the sword had already reached him.
Damn it, this ability of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west, I didn't expect it could even use magical weapons. It seems I really underestimated it.
He subconsciously grasped the scabbard and immediately blocked the attack of the long sword.
Surprisingly, when the scabbard collided with the long sword, the sword intent in the long sword was actually being continuously absorbed.
Before Chen Li could react, the long sword actually merged into the scabbard. When he came to his senses, he found that he had a complete long sword in his hand.
He wanted to pull out the sword, but found that the sword seemed to be fixed in place. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get it out.
At this moment, a sword energy suddenly flashed by, cutting his finger, and blood flowed onto the scabbard.
Looking at the blood on the scabbard, before Chen Li had time to pay attention, he found that the blood had disappeared, as if it had never appeared.
Buzz! The long sword suddenly made a buzzing sound in the scabbard. This sound made Chen Li's head numb. The sword heart in his body seemed to be sensed and kept running.
In a trance, Chen Li suddenly felt a violent fluctuation of spiritual energy coming from his Dantian. He hurriedly sat cross-legged and began to stabilize the sword heart in his Dantian.
No matter how steady he tried, he couldn't control it, and he discovered that a very familiar long sword appeared in the center of these sword hearts.
Isn't this the sword in his hand? Chen Li looked at his right hand and suddenly found that the long sword in his hand had disappeared.
Although he was surprised by what happened, he had no way to continue thinking. What he needed to do now was to stabilize the sword hearts in his dantian as soon as possible.
Although there is no way to stabilize it now, he has no intention of giving up. He must do it no matter what.
What shocked him was that these sword hearts were actually constantly merging into the long sword, and with each fusion, Chen Li's sword intent became stronger.
As the sword hearts continued to merge, Chen Li felt an unprecedented sense of comfort. The original disorder had disappeared, and now these sword hearts were lining up to merge into the long sword.
The first, the tenth, the fiftieth, the ninety-ninth.
All of his sword spirit was integrated into the long sword. The moment he opened his eyes, the spiritual energy around him suddenly dissipated, as if in worship.
He casually picked up a piece of grass from the ground and swung it lightly in front of him. An extremely sharp sword energy suddenly slashed out and actually flattened a mountain in the distance.
"Is this the highest realm of the Cloud Sword Technique, the Heart Sword?" Chen Li muttered to himself. Such a situation was really unexpected.
No wonder it is recorded in the Yunjian Jue that after achieving the Heart Sword, one is even qualified to fight across realms. It seems that this is not a joke. Now Chen Li feels that if he meets a cultivator in the middle stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm, he will also be able to fight.
In his dantian, the long sword was constantly emitting spiritual energy, as if it was the core existence of the Cloud Sword Technique.
At this moment, an unknown information suddenly emerged in his mind, making him look a little dazed.
The Sword of Four Seasons was born from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth stimulated by this formation. It is an ownerless object, and is a top-grade spiritual sword prepared by the Yunjian Sect to cultivate the next sect leader.
After Chen Li came back to his senses, he couldn't help but gasp. The spiritual sword in his body turned out to be a top-grade spiritual sword. This was a magical weapon that was rarely seen in the Jiuzhou continent for thousands of years.
The spiritual sword was created by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. I never thought that I would get such a powerful magic weapon.
In this way, he now has three spirit swords in his hands. The Black Sword is a spirit sword whose grade and power will increase as Chen Li's cultivation level improves. The Soul-stealing Sword is a magic sword that can kill the undead demons and forcibly devour their souls.
Now he has the Sword of Four Seasons. As long as he can control it, no one in the Kyushu Continent will be able to be his opponent.
"It seems that this is the reward that Elder Duan mentioned." Chen Li muttered to himself.
He knew very well that apart from Duan Yunsheng, there was probably no one else who knew about the Yunjian Sect.
Now that the Cloud Sword Technique has been perfected, Chen Like has no intention of staying here, but plans to leave.
Just as he turned around and was about to leave, he discovered that a box had appeared under the willow tree.
The box looked very simple and ancient, and at the same time it was filled with a very strong aura, and the words carved into it were even more obscure and difficult to understand.
He slowly placed his hand on it, and the spiritual energy on the box suddenly spread out. When he came to his senses, he found that the box had been opened.
Inside the box, there was an exquisite robe and a jade pendant.
The robe was green with a sword in the clouds painted on it. As soon as he touched it, Chen Li sensed that there were several formation diagrams on it.
"They are all level seven formation diagrams!" Chen Li took a breath of cold air. This is a level seven formation diagram that can withstand the attack of even a mid-stage Jindan cultivator, and yet it is attached to this robe.
There are four formations in total: defense, attack, strength enhancement and escape. It can be said to be a life-saving artifact.
As long as he puts on this robe, even if he meets Hun Tian and the other three again, Chen Li will not suffer much harm even if he does not take action and lets them get beaten.
As for this jade pendant, Chen Li couldn't see any clues at all, and couldn't even feel any spiritual energy.
He put on the robe, then picked up the jade pendant, looked at it carefully for a while, and finally chose to put it into the space ring.
What surprised him was that this jade pendant could not be stored in the space ring.
This is really strange. There is clearly not even a bit of spiritual energy in it, but it cannot be put in. Is there something on this jade pendant that I have not noticed?
After thinking it over, he had no other choice but to tie the jade pendant on his robe. It looked quite suitable, as if it belonged on the robe.
After doing all this, Chen Li discovered that a teleportation array appeared in front of him at some point, and he could feel that in front of the teleportation array was the entrance where he entered at the beginning.
It seems that this so-called formation is the trial ground for the inheritance of the next leader of the Yunjian Sect. Now that the trial is completed, it is natural to leave here.
