"Qingze, where are we going?"
Chu Lingxiao looked curiously at Gu Qingze who was flying on a sword in front of him.
"The sword competition is coming soon. How can we participate without a suitable sword? So I want to take Ling Xiao to the sword pond to choose one."
Gu Qingze explained with a smile.
In the original novel, it was Ye Qiu Shuang who took the male protagonist to the Sword Pond, and she took him there as soon as she accepted him. Logically speaking, since Ye Qiu Shuang took herself to the Sword Pond, there was no reason not to take Ling Xiao with her. After all, Ye Qiu Shuang also said that all the direct disciples of the sword cultivator had a chance to go to the Sword Pond to choose a suitable sword.
But for some reason, the sword-fighting competition was about to begin, but Ye Qiu Shuang still hadn't shown up, so Ling Xiao still didn't have the ancient divine sword that he was destined to possess.
To be honest, although this place has different deviations from the original novel, Gu Qingze can't tell whether it is good or bad.
Gu Qingze originally wanted to take a leave for training tomorrow and accompany Ling Xiao, but since he had time today, it would be better to resolve it early and feel at ease as soon as possible.
Relying on his memory of the last time Ye Qiu Shuang brought him to the sword pool, he successfully found the route there.
"Qingze..."
This was Chu Lingxiao's first time here. The unfamiliar environment, surrounded by swords stuck in the ground...
He subconsciously looked at the person in front of him and called Gu Qingze's name in a low voice.
"What's wrong?"
Gu Qingze looked at him doubtfully.
Then he remembered that he had not yet explained to him the rules for choosing a sword in the sword pool, so he spoke.
"This is the Sword Pool. Every disciple who practices sword cultivation can come in and choose a sword. However, once you choose a sword and draw it, you cannot regret it. So Ling Xiao must consider it carefully."
Gu Qingze instructed carefully.
"Then Qingze can help me choose?"
Chu Lingxiao nodded, indicating that he knew what to do, but before leaving, he still tugged at the corner of his clothes and asked.
"I'm sorry, I've already made my choice once, and it's marked on my exclusive token, so I can only stand at the outermost edge and can't accompany you deeper."
Gu Qingze shook his head apologetically. He knew that Ling Xiao wanted him to witness the process of possessing the sword with him, but he really couldn't break the rules.
Just now, when he wanted to take a few steps inside, he felt an invisible pressure that made it difficult for him to move. Only then did he understand why his master had to wait at the outermost edge when he was choosing his sword. Although it had something to do with her personality, it was also due to the formation restrictions in the sword pool.
After getting the answer, Chu Lingxiao nodded, and then walked into the depths of the sword pool alone.
Gu Qingze looked at his departing back, and couldn't help but think of something and sighed deeply.
So fast...
Ling Xiao's cultivation level is now the same as his own. He started from the early stages of Qi training and then reached the early stages of Golden Core in less than four years...
As for myself, or the original owner, I basically practiced hard every day, and I never lost any cultivation along the way. As a result, it took me twelve years to reach the early stage of Golden Core, even though I had a single spiritual root of the best quality, thanks to the effect of the Holy Spirit Fruit.
When Ling Xiao emerges from the Sword Pond, he'll possess one of the cheats from the original novel's hero, and his cultivation speed will be even faster... Will he be able to leave me far behind in terms of cultivation after that?
