Another day has passed.

Ling Yunpo's figure flew backwards again, and the opponent slapped his chest with a claw.

But the moment he was hit, the Qingping Sword and the Leizhi Sword crossed and slashed, leaving several deep scars on the big cat.

The big cat jumped back and rolled over in embarrassment, then slowly got up, thinking that this guy was too unbelievable.

In just one day, he had already developed the ability to defend and counterattack, and to strike back in the direction of the attack the moment he was hit... Even if he was born with sword bones, this speed of improvement was outrageous!

"No more fighting!" It suddenly growled and jumped back a few steps. "You've passed this time!"

"Thank you, Senior." Ling Yunpo bowed and asked, "May I ask, Senior, what is the content of the next level of assessment?"

The big cat looked at him steadily, and suddenly smiled evilly:

"You should have figured out the purpose of the first three levels. The main themes are consistent."

"The first level is called 'adversity', the second level is called 'difficulty', and the third level, which is the level I am facing, is called 'dangerous situation'."

"You are born with a sword bone, resolute and brave. When you encounter adversity, you must fight hard, when you encounter difficulties, you must persevere, and when you encounter danger, you must remain calm."

"I see." Ling Yunpo nodded and said, "Then the fourth level is..."

"The fourth level, which is also the last level of the Fujue Mountain Trial, is called 'Desperate Situation.'" The big cat laughed, and its body suddenly turned into falling water and collapsed.

Lingyunpo: ...

So it means "encountering adversity and being trapped", "being trapped for a long time and in danger", "extremely dangerous and desperate", right? It really is a progressive relationship.

Although the first three levels are extremely abnormal, the final "desperate situation" is probably so difficult that it will make people vomit blood.

But now that we're here, we can't back down before the last hurdle.

What's more, there is no chance to quit here.

So Ling Yunpo took a short rest, then regrouped and prepared to move on to the last level.

…

The eleventh floor of Baiyujing.

An Zhisu sat cross-legged in the middle of the floor, recovering from his injuries in silence.

From the fourth floor to the eleventh floor, the realm of the sword enemy has been constantly rising.

By the time he reached the tenth floor, the misty figure had already reached the subtle stage of the Golden Core Realm, and had one foot halfway into the terrifying Nascent Soul Realm.

As An Zhisu entered the arena, he was killed by the flying sword almost at the first encounter, leaving him no chance to fight back.

Fortunately, although these sword enemies are in the Jindan realm, they are all castrated versions - they have the realm of cultivation but can neither use Taoism nor cast sword spells. They are only good at improving the basic attributes of flying swords (such as strength, speed, flexibility, etc.) and the sophistication of sword-controlling techniques.

Due to the huge gap in realm, An Zhisu was simply unable to fight against the mist figure with swords.

Not to mention a head-on collision, even if they were just brushed by the edge while flying the sword, the Feiyan Sword or the Hanlie Sword would be immediately knocked away, like a mantis blocking the wheel, with no room for resistance at all.

An Zhisu had no choice but to abandon all tactics and use the assassin style to the extreme.

First of all, to enter, you must use the Shushan Sword Immortal’s super move “Body and Sword as One”.

This was because only with the speed of combining body and sword could one barely avoid the ordinary attacks of a Youwei-level sword enemy.

Secondly, since the interior of the pavilion was not spacious, the speed of the combination of body and sword was too fast, and An Zhisu could not control such a speed to move around the whole place.

In other words, you can only rush towards the sword enemy, aiming for the fastest kill.

The speed of the sword-controlling enemy of the subtle level was so fast that it was almost outrageous. An Zhisu dodged the initial attack by combining his body with the sword, and even had time to turn the flying sword back to save him.

After avoiding the attack, An Zhisu would combine his body and sword to break through the opponent's defense and directly assassinate the main body.

If you fail to defeat the enemy with one strike, the result will be death on the spot.

The battle on the tenth floor lasted for two days, and on the eleventh floor for three days. No less than tens of thousands of people died in the battle, and finally only the last building of Baiyujing remained.

According to the progressive relationship in strength, the sword enemy there is estimated to have reached the Nascent Soul stage.

An Zhisu circulated several big circles and felt as if all the bones in his body were about to fall apart. He also had a slight dizziness that was difficult to control, probably due to excessive blood loss.

My mood is like a volcano about to erupt. A violent explosion may occur at any time.

However, there was some mysterious power that suppressed all her anxiety and impatience, allowing the rationality in her mind to remain cold and efficient.

Even if a sword enemy at the Nascent Soul stage could immediately merge his body and sword into one, I'm afraid there would be no chance of winning the battle.

In any case, we can only give it a try first.

After repairing his injuries, An Zhisu slowly stood up, holding his sword and walked towards the twelfth pavilion.

Pushing open the door of the pavilion, she stepped over the threshold and walked in. She saw a human figure solidified from mist rising in front of her. It seemed to be a female monk with a slender and graceful figure.

The other party drew out a black sword and looked over with a charming expression - although the facial features were made of mist, An Zhisu somehow saw the charm on the other party's face.

"He is a natural swordsman." The other party sighed quietly, "I haven't seen anyone from outside for a long time. Before the trial, please talk to me first."

"What do you want to say?" An Zhisu said impatiently.

Without confirming whether her junior fellow apprentice was safe, she had no interest in communicating with him.

"Who is the master of Taiyin Sword of this generation?" the other party asked tactfully.

"No more." An Zhisu shook his head and said, "The whereabouts of the Taiyin Suming Sword has been unknown for a long time."

"Why?" the other party asked in surprise.

"The last Taiyin Sword Master was actually a demon in disguise." An Zhisu said impatiently, "Later her identity was revealed and she was hunted down by the human race. Taiyin Suming's whereabouts were unknown during this process."

"Really?" The other party sighed again and whispered, "Su Ming... does he also make mistakes sometimes?"

She stood there for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said:

"If Su Ming could be reborn, a simple and straightforward swordsman like you would probably be very fond of it."

"Are you the projection of Taiyin Sword Master?" An Zhisu asked vigilantly.

"It's just one generation." The other party laughed, "White Jade Capital and Trial Palace were the holy places for the cultivation of the sword immortals of the human race in our era."

"Unfortunately, I don't know when, but gradually no one came."

"More people will come in the future." An Zhisu said lightly.

"I hope so. Please spread the word after you get out, and don't let this place remain sealed away." The other party showed a beautiful smile, "The sword in my hand, although it is a projection, has sealed a trace of the real breath of Taiyin Su Ming."

"Since you are a natural swordsman, then... as long as you can catch my sword, you will have passed the trial in the White Jade Capital."

"Of course, it doesn't matter if you can't catch it, you won't die. You can think it over outside before coming back."

"Come!" An Zhisu shook his wrist and raised the Feiyan Sword. His body and sword became one, and he rushed straight towards the opponent's monk in an instant!

Facing the ruler of Taiyin Suming, passive defense is the stupidest choice!
