After bidding farewell to the royal family, Qin Chuan returned to the Seven Martial Sect and went into seclusion to practice the "Green Lotus Sword Technique".

Now, he only has this sword technique to practice, because he has no other advanced techniques or secret books.

His current magical powers include Nine Dragons Fighting Qi, Hell Red Lotus, Immortal Golden Bell, and Three Flowers Gathering at the Top of the Head.

However, several kinds of magical powers are directly granted by the system. All insights and required energy are directly injected into the body and can be achieved immediately!

So, there is no need to practice.

He once again felt his own poverty. Although he had inexhaustible resources, he had too few high-end treasures and inheritances.

"No! I can't rely on the system rewards anymore. I have to take action on my own to get more treasures and secrets!"

Only by doing it yourself can you have enough food and clothing.

Sudden!

He thought of a place.

It was the time when Qin Zi kidnapped Princess Chu Yun of the Southern Palace, and the strange cave where the old devil rushed out.

There was a strange stone door in the cave. He used his spiritual power to spy on it and almost suffered backlash!

"Maybe, with my current strength, I can go and take a look."

He did what he said and set off right away.

His current speed is such that he can cover a distance of a thousand miles in just one breath, which is simply unbelievable.

Not long after, he arrived at the strange cave.

"boom!"

He pushed out his palm directly towards the deep cave inside, and immediately, a raging fire swept through.

All the darkness was dispelled, even if there were any poisonous insects or bats in the darkness, they were instantly reduced to ashes.

He walked leisurely, passed through the long cave, and finally came to the stone gate.

This stone gate is tall and majestic, with various strange beasts carved on its surface, making it look ferocious and heavy.

“Buzz!!”

His brows glowed, and powerful sacred divine thoughts intertwined and invaded the stone gate.

"boom--"

Just like last time, as soon as the divine consciousness touched the stone gate, a backlash force swept over like a mountain torrent or tsunami.

Almost instantly, Qin Chuan felt that his mind was covered by a sea of ​​fire. However, he was no longer the same person he was before. Apart from feeling a little hot, he did not feel any discomfort.

So, his spiritual consciousness continued to move forward in the sea of ​​fire, eventually penetrating the stone gate and spreading in the space inside the stone gate.

Wow!

The scene before me suddenly became clear.

This is a gray space with endless black clouds covering the sky. From time to time, lightning breaks through the darkness and illuminates the devastated earth.

This is a devastated battlefield.

Various corpses were piled up like stone statues in all sorts of strange postures. There were long swords stuck upside down on the ground, sky spears standing upright, and even spears carrying corpses stuck in the ground. It looked extremely tragic.

"kill--"

Suddenly, a deafening sound rang out, containing endless murderous intent and fighting spirit, which made people tremble with fear!

“Buzz!”

I saw a pair of huge footprints glowing, and then a huge shadow was cast out of thin air, as if that was the person who left the footprints.

It was a tall, middle-aged man, very blurry in appearance. He held a huge sword in his hand and swept it across the front.

"boom!!"

The sword energy was unmatched, creating a catastrophe. Wherever it passed, it shattered everything, cut through yin and yang, and even distorted time and space!

Qin Chuan was clearly watching from the side, but the moment he saw it, he only felt that the sword seemed to be sweeping towards him.

"puff!"

His spiritual thoughts were instantly shattered, and his body was also attacked back. He spat out a mouthful of blood and his face turned extremely pale.

"What a terrifying sword!"

"It's been so long since I swung this sword thousands of years ago, but the remaining trace of its charm can actually hurt my soul!"

He was shocked.

Could this be a Martial Emperor? !

"This sword is so terrifying. If I can comprehend a little of its charm, wouldn't it be equivalent to gaining a powerful magical power?"

Thinking of this, his breathing quickened.

However, he thought, if he would suffer backlash every time he looked at it, then how many times would he have to comprehend it in this intermittent manner?

And this injury will definitely need treatment.

He checked his space ring. There were more than a hundred soul-recovering pills in it, and more than a hundred spiritual herbs with the same effect. In other words, there were enough for him to recover more than two hundred times.

"Besides, this kind of injury is not that serious, and it does not require treatment every time. If I treat it once, it should be able to withstand three backlashes!"

"That is to say, I have more than 600 chances to comprehend. If I still cannot succeed after 600 times, I will have to give up temporarily."

Thinking of this, he took a pill, began to recover from his injuries, and then continued to invade his spiritual thoughts into the stone gate.

"kill--"

"puff!"

"kill--"

"puff!"

…

He comprehended the sword again and again, and was repeatedly attacked by the sword's spirit. After healing, he continued to move forward, over and over again.

Soon, half a month passed.

He was injured again and again, and recovered again and again, and then he was surprised to find that his soul was becoming more and more resilient.

He can now withstand nine backlashes!

In this way, the consumption of elixirs and spiritual herbs was reduced by two times, which allowed him to hold on for so long.

Otherwise, he would have had to return home a few days ago.

“Buzz!!”

Finally, after comprehending it for more than fifteen hundred times, he spat out blood again, and a shadow was born in his mind.

It is the charm of that sword.

In his mind, there seemed to be a vague figure standing there, swinging the sword with the same frequency and momentum.

"kill!!"

He drew out the Green Lotus Sword with his right hand, and according to the inspiration in his mind, he swung the sword across. Suddenly, the sword light was brilliant!

“BOOM!!”

The sword light hit the stone gate, making a terrifying loud noise, and even stone chips exploded and smoke and dust flew.

After the smoke and dust cleared, a faint sword mark was left on the indestructible stone door!

After this sword strike, Qin Chuan actually felt an unprecedented sense of weakness, as if all the strength in his body had been poured out with the sword, and even his soul felt dizzy.

It feels like my body has been hollowed out!

"This sword is very powerful, but with my current strength, I can only use it once. I can't use it lightly."

After weighing it over, he decided to use this move as a trump card - a man must have a trump card!

He took out some pills to restore his strength, and after recuperating for a while, he left the cave.

The space behind the stone door is vast, and there are more secrets inside, but he doesn't want to continue exploring.

Greed is like a snake swallowing an elephant!

Now he would be injured even if he saw a lingering sword-swinging aura. If he encountered any danger again, wouldn’t he be crippled on the spot?

In fact, if he was a little weaker, or if the sword had a stronger aura, he would have died on the spot half a month ago!

Now that I am alive and have comprehended some of the charm of this sword, I am already lucky...

…

Soon, Qin Chuan returned to the Seven Martial Sect.

Then he discovered that Qin Zi had been back for several days, and it was said that this kid ran to Shui Qingrou's residence every night.

Most of the time, they exchanged their insights on cultivation.

What surprised him even more was that this kid's cultivation had actually reached the Tongtian Realm, and it was the second level of the Tongtian Realm!

This speed is simply... still not as fast as his. However, in terms of normal cultivation, it is already amazing.

"Xiao Zi, with your current strength, it is difficult to find an opponent among the younger generation in the Seven Kingdoms."

"But cultivation is like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. If you want to become stronger, you must compete with more outstanding geniuses."

"So...we should go to the East Region."

Qin Chuan looked at his adopted son and said seriously.

"ah?"

Qin Zi was slightly startled, then asked tentatively: "Can I take Junior Sister Qingrou with me?"

"What do you think?"

Qin Chuan asked back with a smile

He knew that this boy had already gotten together with Shui Qingrou, but as for what exactly happened between them, no one knew.

Everyone has their own story.

Maybe it will be a grand event, maybe it will be a long-lasting one, maybe it will be just a snapping sound...only they themselves know these things.

"this……"

Facing Qin Chuan's gaze, Qin Zi felt a little guilty and even a little ashamed - he was going there to gain experience, not to travel!

At this time, Qin Chuan smiled mysteriously and said, "Don't worry about Shui Qingrou. Shui Qingrou has her own way to go. Maybe... her destined master is on the way."

"ah?"

Qin Zi was suddenly startled. He looked at his father's deep eyes and mysterious smile and felt that they were somewhat unfathomable.
