Chapter 103: The Protector of the Void Realm
Elder Ming, who had just survived the tribulation, and other supreme elders in the Spirit Transformation Realm, such as Wu Qingfeng, and the peak masters, all came towards Lu Yi.
At this time, the lazy voice of Lingluo Peak Master sounded: "Don't get too close, don't affect him."
Everyone nodded slightly and stopped not far from Lu Yi. Everyone looked at Lu Yi quietly, with complex expressions flashing in their eyes.
Wu Qingfeng looked at Elder Ming beside him and asked, "Elder Ming, what do you think?"
After transcending the tribulation, the wrinkles on Elder Ming’s face became much less, his white hair remained the same, but his aura was not as eerie as before.
The aura around him was restrained, and he looked like an ordinary old man. There was no sign of the power of the sword that had cut through the thunderclouds.
Elder Ming looked at the sword intent around Lu Yi and sighed softly, "Lu is a natural talent in swordsmanship. This sword intent is extremely profound and mixed with many other artistic conceptions. Even I cannot fully understand it. The sword moves refined from such a profound artistic conception will probably be earth-shattering."
Upon hearing this, many cultivators, even the Jindan cultivators like Wu Qingfeng, were amazed.
"As expected of an immortal from my Baiyun Sect, he is only at the foundation-building stage, but he can comprehend such a sword move. It's really terrifying."
"This sword move, even though it hasn't been fully formed, makes me feel terrified. If it is fully formed, I'm afraid it will be very terrifying."
“…”
As everyone was communicating, Lu Yi's understanding gradually came to an end.
His mind was filled with Dao patterns, including the immortal Dao patterns on the immortal sword, the strange patterns deduced from heavenly thunder, and the sword patterns formed by the condensation of sword intent.
All the Dao patterns changed and intertwined, and finally merged into one, transforming into a sword move.
This sword move, in which the man wielding the sword dares to draw his sword and strike even when the heaven and earth are crumbling before his eyes, reflects the courage, tenacity and indomitable spirit of the man holding the sword.
As the sword moves took shape, the sword intent around Lu Yi slowly converged.
Lu Yi opened his eyes and saw a group of people surrounding him. He even saw Elder Ming who looked much younger. He was stunned.
The thunder tribulation is over? At this time, the voice of Lingluo Peak Master sounded: "Stinky boy, how do you feel?"
Lu Yi came back to his senses, then smiled and said, "Disciple feels very good. Watching Master Ming transcend the tribulation, I gained a lot of insights and learned a sword move."
Elder Ming stroked his beard and laughed, "Hahahaha, I am going through the tribulation, but you have gained some insights. You are really... worthy of being a genius with the appearance of an ancient demon."
Lu Yi smiled modestly: "Thank you for the compliment, Elder Ming. Congratulations on your breakthrough to the Void Realm."
Upon hearing this, Old Ming nodded slightly and smiled.
After being stuck in the Spirit Transformation Realm for thousands of years, even he was very happy when he broke through.
Afterwards, Elder Ming looked at Lu Yi and sighed, "This is all thanks to you, kid Lu. If it weren't for you, I would have had a hard time breaking through."
Hearing this, everyone else was stunned, even the Lord of Lingluo Peak, Liu Ningshuang and others were all puzzled and looked at Lu Yi in astonishment.
Lingluo Peak Master looked at Lu Yi suspiciously: "I say, what did you do?"
Lu Yi smiled a little embarrassedly: "I just gave Elder Ming a little help."
The others were surprised. A little help? It was obviously impossible for a powerful swordsman who had been stuck in the Spiritualization Realm for a long time to break through to the Void Realm with just a little help.
Elder Ming's next words shocked everyone even more. He looked at Lu Yi and said, "Lu kid, you are extremely talented and have the appearance of an immortal, but your strength is still too weak. I have thought about this before I broke through. If I can successfully break through to the Void Realm, I will protect you for a thousand years until your strength completely surpasses mine."
Hearing this, the sky fell silent.
No matter whether it was Wu Qingfeng and others, or the master of Lingluo Peak, or even Liu Ningshuang, Donggong Mingyue and other disciples, they all looked at Elder Ming in disbelief.
Who is Elder Ming? He has broken through to the Void Realm and mastered the powerful sword intent. Even in the Void Realm, he is definitely considered a very strong person! Such a great cultivator is actually willing to be a protector and protect Lu Yi? Everyone was shocked.
Wu Qingfeng hesitated and said, "Ming Lao, what are you doing..."
Elder Ming waved his hand and said, "I have made up my mind. Of course, there will be no problem for Lu kid in the sect with the girl Lingluo watching over him. I will follow him after he leaves the sect. From now on, let Izumo guard the library."
Seeing that Elder Ming was so determined, Wu Qingfeng could not say much and could only nod. However, he became even more curious when he saw Lu Yi's expression. What kind of help did Lu Yi give to Elder Ming to make him protect Lu Yi? Not only Wu Qingfeng, but others were also very curious.
After Elder Ming's tribulation was over, everyone left. Lu Yi followed the leader of Lingluo Peak, Liu Ningshuang and Donggong Mingyue, and flew towards Lingluo Peak.
In the air, the head of Lingluo Peak looked at Lu Yi with some doubts, and asked: "What kind of help did you give to Elder Ming? How could he be willing to protect you? After Elder Ming's breakthrough, he is the only cultivator in our Baiyun Sect who has reached the Void Realm."
Donggong Mingyue was also very curious. She blinked her big eyes with an elf-like light flashing in them and asked, "Yes, Senior Brother, Elder Ming is willing to protect you. You are so generous!"
Liu Ningshuang was also looking at Lu Yi. Although she didn't say anything, she was also extremely curious.
Seeing the three people's curious expressions, Lu Yi chuckled and said, "I will give Elder Ming thousands of drops of the Hundred Years Spirit Essence."
Hearing this, the three of them were silent for a while. Lingluo Peak Master scratched his head in surprise: "You kid actually has so many hundred-year spiritual essences?!"
Lu Yi smiled and said, "I got it from the Donglin Ancient Ruins before."
“No wonder…Normally speaking, Elder Ming should not be able to break through. I’m still a little confused as to why Elder Ming could break through. With thousands of drops of hundred-year-old spiritual marrow and Elder Ming’s swordsmanship, it’s normal for him to break through.” Lord Lingluo couldn’t help but sigh.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "It is also because of Elder Ming's own great strength that he was able to break through."
The four of them returned to Lingluo Peak while talking.
After Lu Yi returned to his cave and came to the training room, he couldn't wait to receive his reward.
The profound sword intent and the principles of thunder were intertwined, constantly emerging in Lu Yi's mind and were quickly absorbed by Lu Yi.
When Master Ming was going through the thunder tribulation before, his sword intent was guided by Master Ming, and with his sudden enlightenment, it had been improved to about 70%. With the addition of the half-percent this time, Lu Yi's sword intent directly increased to 75%, which can be regarded as the real great sword intent, but it is still some distance away from 100% perfection.
As for the state of mind of thunder, although there was some improvement after observing the thunder tribulation before, it was not as great as that of the sword intent. With this half, it only reached 70%, which was slightly lacking of the sword intent. But generally speaking, it was still a huge improvement.
Afterwards, Lu Yi continued to consolidate his understanding of that sword move.
This is his original sword technique. There is only one move now, but Lu Yi understands that there will be a second and third move in the future.
Even if it is just this one move, it is no worse than the Heavenly Thunder True Dragon Art that Lu Yi created by comprehending the innate patterns on the true dragon's scales, and it is enough to reach the realm of spiritual transformation.
There may be some flaws and limitations, but as Lu Yi's sword skills improve, they can be continuously improved.
After all, this is the sword technique created by Lu Yi himself, which is most suitable for him and its potential can be described as unlimited.
Lu Yi named this sword technique the Tribulation Sword Style. This sword style that was inspired by observing the thunder tribulation can withstand all kinds of tribulations and remain indestructible.
A month later, Lu Yi received a notice from Donggong Mingyue, saying that a three-sect exchange meeting would be held in Wanhua Sect soon, and the geniuses of Baiyun Sect were invited to participate in the exchange.
Lu Yi, Donggong Mingyue, and even Liu Ningshuang will go, after all, the three of them are geniuses.
Liu Ningshuang even surpassed the favored daughter of heaven in Qingzhou.
In addition to them, there were several senior brothers and sisters from Lingluo Peak, as well as senior brothers and sisters from other peaks who went together.
On the day of departure, Lu Yi discovered that there were nearly a hundred disciples going, including Jiang Fan, Bai Yulong and Tie Man.
In addition to the disciples, there are several elders in the Nascent Soul stage, and a supreme elder in the Spirit Transformation stage leading the team.
The supreme elder in the realm of transformation is a burly bald old man named Qi Ling. Lu Yi had seen him when Elder Ming was going through the thunder tribulation. He was a guy with a bad temper.
In addition to them, Elder Ming would naturally go as well. He said that he would protect Lu Yi, and Lu Yi did not refuse. After all, with a Dongxu sword cultivator following him, his safety would be greatly increased, and he did not have to worry about safety issues at all.
Just as Lu Yi thought, after Elder Ming broke through to the Dongxu realm, the rewards for the tasks he and Elder Ming discussed the way of the sword had increased a lot, and each time he completed a task, he gained more insights into the sword than before.
In addition, Elder Ming was right next to him, so Lu Yi could discuss swordsmanship with Elder Ming whenever he had free time. The speed at which his sword skills improved was incomparable to before.
A group of people boarded the Ningguang ancient ship, crossed the sky, and flew towards the territory of Wanhua Sect.
It was Donggong Mingyue’s first time to ride on the Ningguang ancient ship. She ran around curiously and finally found adjacent rooms to stay in with Lu Yi and Liu Ningshuang.
The territories of Wanhua Sect and Baiyun Sect are adjacent, but the distance between them is also very far. It took four days of flying to reach Wanhua Sect.
The area where the Wanhua Sect is located is a beautiful mountain range with towering peaks and surrounded by white clouds, like a fairyland.
The headquarters of the Wanhua Sect is located in a huge valley. Looking down from the Ningguang Ancient Ship, one can see the entire valley is filled with brilliant flowers, the rich fragrance of the flowers can be smelled even in the air.
Between the valleys and the mountain peaks, beautiful and elegant female cultivators wearing colorful dresses flew by on their swords, making many male cultivators of the Baiyun Sect dazzled.
Lu Yi was looking at an innocent-looking female monk flying by, and he felt a strange gaze coming from the side.
He turned his head and saw Donggong Mingyue staring at him with wide eyes.
Lu Yi was a little confused: "Junior sister, what's wrong?"
"Hmph! What's so good about these female cultivators from the Wanhua Sect? Senior brother, your soul is about to be seduced away." Donggong Mingyue pouted.
Lu Yi thought for a moment, then looked at Donggong Mingyue seriously, making Donggong Mingyue blush: "Brother, why are you looking at me like that?"
Lu Yi smiled and said, "I took a look, and the fairy from the Wanhua Sect is indeed not as pretty as my junior sister."
Donggong Mingyue's pretty face turned even redder, but her eyes narrowed with a smile. She proudly put her hands on her hips and said, "This lady is already a great beauty!"
Liu Ningshuang beside him looked at Lu Yi and smiled faintly: "Junior brother, do you want to find a Taoist partner in Baihua Sect? I heard that most of the female cultivators in Wanhua Sect have good dual cultivation methods, which makes them a good choice for a Taoist partner."
No, if possible, I hope you can be my Taoist partner and practice cultivation together...
Lu Yi complained in his heart, then looked at Liu Ningshuang and said with a smile: "Senior sister hasn't found a Taoist partner yet, why are you talking about junior brother?"
The faint smile on Liu Ningshuang's pretty face froze for a moment, then she glanced at Lu Yi and stopped talking.
While the three were talking, a team of monks from the Wanhua Sect flew towards the ancient ship.
The leader was a beautiful woman with graceful looks. She had her black hair tied up, wore a plain white dress, and had a teardrop mole at the corner of her eye.
Beside the beautiful woman were Yun Xi and several middle-aged and elderly female cultivators, and behind them were some pretty young girls, who should be cultivators from the Wanhua Sect.
When everyone arrived at the Ningguang Ancient Ship, Qi Ling bowed and said, "Master Hua, long time no see."
Lu Yi took a look at the beautiful woman and was a little surprised. It turned out that she was the headmaster of Wanhua Sect.
Sect Leader Hua nodded slightly and chuckled, "Daoist Fellow Qi Ling, it has been hundreds of years since we last met, right?"
She swept her eyes across the crowd, then fell on Lu Yi, Liu Ningshuang and Elder Ming, and finally looked at Lu Yi.
With a kind smile on her face, she said, "This must be Lu Yi from your Baiyun Sect, right? He is indeed a handsome man."
Lu Yi bowed and said, "Greetings, Master Hua."
"Okay, okay! Good child, you and Yun Xi are good friends, just call me Granny Hua from now on." Sect Leader Hua behaved very kindly and spoke cordially.
Lu Yi was somewhat flattered. He glanced at Yun Xi beside him, then smiled and said, "Hello Granny Hua."
Sect Leader Hua nodded, then looked at Elder Ming and said, "I heard a few days ago that Senior Nan Luoming, who had sealed his sword for hundreds of years, actually entered the Void Realm overnight. It was unbelievable. Seeing him today, Senior Ming's aura was as strong as the abyss. I admire his strength."
Elder Ming smiled and nodded: "Master Hua's strength is also becoming more and more profound. There may be hope for him to break through to the Void Realm in the future."
Sect Master Hua smiled and shook his head: "My potential is only limited here. My future still depends on the next generation. Miss Liu Ningshuang is also here. With her talent, she will definitely achieve the state of Void Realm in the future, and may even have the hope of achieving the state of Integration or even Mahayana. You, the Baiyun Sect, are really lucky."
Liu Ningshuang bowed slightly to Master Hua, her face cold and respectful, "Greetings, Master Hua."
Elder Ming smiled and said, "Young friend Yun Xi from your Wanhua Sect is also extremely talented. He will surely be able to bring the Wanhua Sect to a higher level in the future."
"Hahaha, thanks to Senior Ming's good words, I will take all of you distinguished guests from the Baiyun Sect to your residence. Please come in."
Sect Leader Hua led the way, and everyone got off the Ningguang ancient ship and followed Sect Leader Hua into the Wanhua Sect's main gate.
The group of pretty Wanhua Sect cultivators following behind Sect Master Hua all looked at the Baiyun Sect members. Most of the female cultivators secretly glanced at Lu Yi from time to time, then lowered their heads to whisper, chuckling softly, with shy sounds being heard from time to time.
Lu Yi was almost embarrassed by their stares, but Bai Yulong beside him had green eyes and looked at Lu Yi with envy. He sighed and said, "Alas, the fellow Taoists from the Wanhua Sect are only staring at Junior Brother Lu."
The other male monks nearby were also helpless.
Yun Xi came to Lu Yi and said with a smile: "Daoist Lu Yi, I haven't seen you for a long time. How have you been recently?"
Donggong Mingyue, who was standing next to him, hugged Lu Yi's arm and looked at Yun Xi warily: "What are you doing here?"
Yun Xi looked at Donggong Mingyue seriously and said, "I haven't seen Daoist Fellow Lu Yi for a long time. I missed him a little, so I came to chat with him."
Donggong Mingyue was furious when she heard this and said, "Who told you to miss my senior brother?!"
The white jade dragon beside him had blue eyes, full of resentment.
Even the other senior brothers turned to look at Lu Yi with complicated expressions.
Lu Yi's expression was calm. Based on his understanding of Yun Xi's personality, the missing this guy mentioned was probably the missing between friends, nothing else.
Yun Xi explained to Donggong Mingyue seriously: "I thought of it myself, not someone else."
Donggong Mingyue: “???”
Faced with Yun Xi's serious expression, she felt a little crazy.
Even Liu Ningshuang glanced at Yun Xi, whose expression was calm. There was a hint of surprise and curiosity on her pretty face. Then she looked at Lu Yi, smiled slightly, and said in a voice transmission: "This fellow Daoist Yun Xi is quite interesting. Junior brother has good luck in love."
The corner of Lu Yi's mouth twitched and he glanced at Liu Ningshuang. His senior sister had been concerned about his romantic luck on her way to Wanhua Sect these days.
He helplessly transmitted his voice: "Senior sister, you are overthinking. Fellow Daoist Yunxi is as innocent as a child. She just treats me as a good friend."
Liu Ningshuang chuckled and didn't reply.
As the group was talking, they soon arrived at a palace deep in the valley of the Wanhua Sect. This was the residence of their Baiyun Sect.
After bringing them here, Sect Leader Hua left, along with Qi Ling and some Nascent Soul elders, leaving behind some Wanhua Sect disciples to communicate with Baiyun Sect monks.
Under Yun Xi's guidance, Lu Yi found his own room. Afterwards, Yun Xi smiled and said, "The purple rose flower sea in our Wanhua Sect is absolutely beautiful. Fellow Daoist Lu Yi, why don't you come with me to take a look?"
Before Lu Yi could say anything, Donggong Mingyue beside him shouted, "I want to go too!"
Yun Xi tilted her head and looked at her, with a puzzled look on her face: "Fellow Daoist Donggong, you seem to hate me, why are you going?"
Donggong Mingyue's expression darkened, he glared at Yun Xi, and snorted, "I'm with my senior brother!"
Seeing this, Yun Xi nodded: "Okay then."
Seeing that Donggong Mingyue had agreed, Lu Yi nodded and said, "Then go."
In fact, he was thinking about sparring with Yun Xi, but then he changed his mind and thought it would be too tiring to spar with her right after arriving. They would have to stay here for a while anyway, so there was no need to rush.
The scenery of Wanhua Sect is beautiful, and it’s nice to go for a walk.
At the same time, he said to himself, "I want to go to the sea of purple roses with Yun Xi."
Lines of text appeared on the panel.
Lu Yi took a look and then showed a hint of surprise. He didn't expect the reward to be so generous.
