But as it turns out, you can't accomplish something just because you're interested in it.
After three years of arduous training, Jia Zhengyi barely crossed the threshold of martial arts. His aptitude was so poor that Xiao Linlin covered her face in dismay. She could only send most of her resources to Su Qingyang's secluded training place. Now she only hoped that her cheap father could recover to a basic normal state and be able to take charge of the martial arts world before her brother returned.
In the fourth year, an astonishing secret came from the heretical sect Wuwanghai. A prodigy appeared in Wuwanghai. He had only recently entered the martial arts world but had amazing talent. He was highly regarded by the masters of various heretical sects. It is said that in this year, he was enlightened by several masters of Wuwanghai and entered the Nirvana Realm, stepping into the ranks of the first-class masters in the martial arts world.
In the fifth year, this swordsman from Wuwanghai, known as Young Master Chu, led a team to Jian Ge, delivering an invitation to spar with the younger generation of disciples.
Xu Zhenshu stepped forward to accept the offer. Since he was a younger generation disciple, it was inappropriate for Su Lin (the mimic) to be the one to handle the situation. Instead, the younger generation from Sword Pavilion would take charge.
Unfortunately, the disciples of Sword Pavilion were still outstanding, and some of them even possessed unfathomable talents. One of them, with the strength of the Great Perfection of the Free and Unfettered Realm, severely injured Young Master Chu, causing him to fall into a coma and retreat in a sorry state.
This incident shook the martial arts world, making people feel even more strongly about the terrifying power of the Sword Pavilion.
Despite being rebuilt after chaos, Sword Pavilion still far surpasses all other sects, and even its later disciples remain terrifyingly strong.
In the sixth year, a new generation of disciples from the Sword Pavilion emerged, consisting of fourteen men and women, collectively known as the Fourteen Lesser Heavenly Swords. They descended the mountain to gain experience, studied under various righteous and evil sects, and became invincible among their peers.
In the seventh year, nothing major happened. Su Lin still hadn't returned. Xiao Linlin's appearance had gradually matured, and she had grown into a graceful young woman. However, she still kept to herself in the Sword Pavilion, learning some lightness skills and movement techniques from Li Xingtian's occasional guidance. Although they weren't profound, they were still good self-defense methods.
In the eighth year, some interesting stories occasionally circulated among the people of the martial arts world. A wandering martial artist was rescued by an immortal in the sea while he was out training. He was taught the Zhou Tian Sword Technique and then became a disciple of the Sword Pavilion. The Sword Pavilion accepted him as a personal disciple without asking about the origin of the sword technique.
In the ninth year, someone witnessed a strange man at the foot of the snow-capped mountain. He was middle-aged and had a withered face. The man climbed the mountain with his bare hands, was caught in an avalanche, and miraculously survived, disappearing into the white curtain of the mountain peak.
Ten years later, someone passing by saw a down-on-his-luck storyteller reciting a new book, which talked about the sworn brotherhood in the Peach Garden and the warring warlords in the chaotic world. The content was captivating, but there was no ending. A wealthy merchant offered a lot of money to buy it, but he claimed that the story was told by an immortal after drinking, which was met with skepticism.
In the eleventh year, a child said that a sorcerer had passed by in a barren field in the city and casually summoned a great rain, saving the area from drought. A large clan sent people to track him down, but they could not find out where he went or what he looked like. None of the farmers in the fields could recall him.
In the twelfth year, a fleet set sail and was struck by a giant fish. The ship was destroyed and adrift. Fortunately, an immortal appeared on a sword and rescued 106 people, young and old, back to land with a wave of his hand. After that, he disappeared without a trace.
In the thirteenth year, some people saw thunderstorms appearing in the depths of the sea. The thunder roared like the end of the world, and the shock lasted for ten days and ten nights before dissipating. This caused a significant decline in the local aquatic industry that month, and rumors spread that the sea dragon was angry and needed to be appeased with sacrifices.
In the fourteenth year, a shooting star shone brightly in the sunlight above Jian Ge, dispersing the clouds as it fell into Jian Ge and disappeared from sight.
Some people in the martial arts world witnessed this and spread rumors that a saint has descended to earth in the Sword Pavilion, and perhaps a new sword immortal will emerge in the future, bringing prosperity for another three hundred years.
Also in that year, it was in the afternoon.
As the meteor fell, a young girl from the Sword Pavilion jumped up from a rattan chair in the courtyard and darted out like the wind, overturning the old man's wine pot.
"Oh dear, my wine! What a waste, such a waste!"
The old man shouted, furious: "Xiao Linlin! You're getting more and more rebellious as you grow older! Are you trying to overthrow the Sword Pavilion?!"
"Don't shout, don't shout!"
The girl had vanished without a trace, only her silvery laughter echoed: "My brother's back! I saw him, it must be him coming home!"
