It was ten days later when they returned to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.
The deputy sect leader, Jian Yu, personally led the crowd out of the mountain gate to greet him. When they saw Lu Chen riding the majestic level-five demon beast, the Azure Rock Lion King, they were all stunned.
"Impressive! I've heard that a level five demonic beast is on par with a Heavenly Realm expert. Presumably, it was only through the personal efforts of the Sword Language Hall Master that this giant lion was captured!"
"By the way, what kind of demonic beast is this lion?"
"I don't know! It's a bit like the Azure Rock Lion King, but the Azure Rock Lion King's growth has a limit; it can only reach level four at most!"
"This is clearly a white lion, and it's not a Green Rock Lion!"
"The Sword Language Hall Master is indeed formidable!"
"Yes! Only the Sword Language Hall Master could deal with a demonic beast of this level!"
The disciples of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect were all discussing among themselves, and they were all filled with envy as they watched the Azure Rock Lion King being ridden by Lu Chen.
Even Jian Yu and his group believed that Jian Yu or Jian Xue had captured the lion to give to Lu Chen as a mount.
Lu Chen had no idea what these people were thinking, nor did he care. After entering the mountain gate, he first went to the forbidden area behind the mountain.
As soon as Jianyu met him, he told him that he had to go see the ancestor when he got back.
Forbidden area in the back mountain.
The old man is still fishing by the lake.
Lu Chen was speechless with frustration.
"Does the patriarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect really enjoy pretending to be a reclusive master? Are there really that many fish in this lake? Doesn't he get tired of fishing every day?"
Of course, Lu Chen wouldn't say this outright; instead, he would put it into action.
Lu Chen scanned the lake with his spiritual sense and discovered a large fish, about half a person's length, swimming slowly and leisurely deep at the bottom of the lake.
The sword energy was released at will, instantly piercing through the lake surface and reaching the ground.
The large fish was pierced, and then the sword energy surged, breaking through the water.
"you……"
The old ancestor was stunned. He had been sitting in seclusion on the back mountain for many years. The disciples he usually saw were Jian Yu and a few high-ranking members of the Wanjian Sect with the character "Jian" in their names.
However, no matter who was in his presence, they all remained obedient and dared not show the slightest disrespect.
Lu Chen, on the other hand, is becoming increasingly outrageous. He actually dared to catch the fish he was raising in the lake right in front of him, which is simply outrageous.
"Ancestor, if you want to eat fish, just catch it! Why bother with all that trouble?"
Lu Chen controlled his sword energy with ease, like a delicate little knife, lightly removing the fish scales and then gutting the fish in mid-air.
Enveloped in Yuan Power, the large fish was retrieved, cleaned, and then flew back to Lu Chen.
Suddenly, flames appeared out of thin air in Lu Chen's hands, heading towards the large fish. At the same time, his other hand swept out a large amount of seasonings.
Before long, the aroma of grilled fish wafted over.
The old ancestor was stunned.
"Good heavens, they're grilling fish right in front of me?"
Lu Chen reached out and grabbed at the air, and a huge rock in front of him was directly grabbed. With a slash of his sword energy, it was transformed into a round table and two stone benches.
The grilled fish was placed on a large plate on the stone table.
Then, Lu Chen casually waved his hand and took out a pot of fine wine and two wine cups from his spatial ring.
"Ancestor, would you like some drinks?" Lu Chen asked with a smile, looking at his ancestor who had been stunned for a long time.
"OK!"
A smile suddenly appeared on the old ancestor's gaunt face. He slowly got up, walked to the stone table, and sat down.
He hadn't gotten up for a long time.
Suddenly I realized that there was no need to be so persistent.
Some things should be let go!
"please!"
Lu Chen personally poured two glasses of wine.
The old ancestor raised his wine cup, his smile quite meaningful. He stared at Lu Chen for a long time, but still couldn't see through Lu Chen's current strength, which greatly shocked him.
However, Lu Chen's skill in catching and grilling fish sauce just now surprised the ancestor.
Catching and grilling fish is simple, but Lu Chen's control over sword energy and Yuan power had reached a level of effortless mastery. Every move he made was clean and efficient, without any unnecessary actions.
In the details, it is incredibly ingenious.
This is a method that most people wouldn't be able to use.
The ancestor now suspects that Lu Chen is still hiding his true strength, and what level he has reached that even he cannot see through.
"Innate Sword Body? It's so mysterious!"
Seeing the subtle expression on his ancestor's face, Lu Chen smiled frankly and said, "Ancestor, please speak your mind. We're like family, no need to hide anything!"
Upon hearing this, the ancestor was both amused and exasperated.
If Jian Yu and the others spoke to him like that, he would surely get a beating and a scolding.
But the ancestor couldn't get angry at Lu Chen.
"That's true. There's no need for such formality between master and disciple!"
The old ancestor smiled and said, "Then I'll ask you this: I can't even see through your current realm. Why don't you tell me?"
"realm?"
Lu Chen was silent for a moment, then said, "To be honest, I don't know either. Why don't you tell me, Ancestor, what exactly is going on with these cultivation realms?"
After a pause, Lu Chen asked again, "I only know that the four realms of the sky are True Martial Realm, Spirit Martial Realm, Profound Martial Realm, and Heavenly Martial Realm. What about above that?"
The ancestor smiled.
"You want to know?"
He kept us in suspense.
Lu Chen nodded, not in a hurry. There was no need to ask too much about this. He would naturally know after reaching this level. However, Lu Chen was a little unsure about his trip to the Black Dragon Mountains.
