After a long silence, Liu Ruoqin finally couldn't help but ask, "Uncle Master, are you sure you are helping Senior Brother Zhou?"

Beihai Sword Master's cheek muscles twitched, and he couldn't help but sighed: "How could I have known that this kid was so amazing!"

He originally wanted to activate the countless sword intents on the sword monument and make them mix together, so that when Lin Zhongtian sensed the sword intent, he would have to sense countless contradictory sword state of mind at the same time.

In this way, Lin Zhongtian's mind will be disturbed, and he will not be able to achieve the requirement of comprehending the sword intent within the specified time.

But who would have thought that this guy was not only unaffected by the sword intent in the sky, but he even took the initiative to accept the sword intent storm into his body.

"If an ordinary Jindan stage cultivator accepted so many sword intentions, he would have been tortured and collapsed by the completely different and even self-contradictory sword intentions. But this kid was able to choose the one he liked the most despite the interference of the sword intentions."

"This kind of invincible willpower and swordsmanship, even I have never seen it before!"

At this point, Beihai Sword Master couldn't help but ask, "Do you really think he is a disciple of Fuhai Sect?"

"If I were a high-ranking member of the Fu Hai Sect, and had a disciple like this, I would definitely keep him hidden and escort him all the way to Ascension. How could I allow him to go out on an adventure alone, and to the most dangerous Si Hai Sect secret realm for Fu Hai Sect disciples..."

After hearing the words of Beihai Sword Master, Liu Ruoqin couldn't help but doubt her own judgment.

"Nephew Ruoqin, don't blame your uncle for not helping you. I'm afraid he won't be able to stop him at this first stage..."

Beihai Sword Master looked towards the water curtain, his eyes full of admiration.

At this moment, Lin Zhongtian in the water curtain showed disappointment on his face.

He didn't like any sword intent and couldn't pick out one to comprehend.

There was no other way. Lin Zhongtian, who had difficulty making decisions, had to comprehend all the sword intent with great difficulty.

He stood up from the ground, looked at the stone tablet in front of him and sighed: "I have understood all the sword meanings. Do I need to show it to you?"

When these words were spoken, Liu Ruoqin's eyes widened immediately, suspecting that she was hallucinating.

The North Sea Sword Master next to him was also full of surprise.

...All sword intent?

How is this possible? How can it be so fast?!

In an instant, a blue light flashed on the stone tablet, and the sword marks containing sword intent disappeared one after another.

In just a moment, the sword monument that was originally covered with sword marks turned into a gray stone monument as smooth as a mirror.

"I see!"

Lin Zhongtian looked at the stone tablet in front of him with great interest, then put his fingers together like swords and swung out the sword intent at will, leaving sword marks on the stone tablet.

The sword intent contained in each sword mark, as well as the position and shape of the sword mark, are exactly the same as the previous sword mark.

When the last sword intent fell, the stone tablet covered with sword marks lit up with blue light, and then instantly collapsed into countless blue light spots.

The air was filled with water vapor, gathering into a translucent blue ocean, and faintly the sound of the sea waves could be heard...

Outside the water curtain, Beihai Sword Master and Liu Ruoqin were stunned.

Liu Ruoqin couldn't help but ask, "What is this result?"

Beihai Sword Master sighed: "The sea is boundless and can accommodate hundreds of rivers. He has comprehended all the sword meanings on the sword monument, which is all-encompassing and has reached the highest score I set during my lifetime..."

To be honest, this achievement originally only existed in his imagination, and he never thought that someone could actually achieve it.

Liu Ruoqin's face changed, and she couldn't help but ask, "Then... can you tamper with the results?"

Beihai Sword Master shook his head and said, "No, I am just a remnant soul after all, and I only have partial authority over the Heritage Hall."

Liu Ruoqin was puzzled and asked, "But you can obviously increase the difficulty for challengers and directly open the road to the Heritage Hall for your disciples, so why can't you tamper with the challengers' scores?"

Beihai Sword Master glanced at her, shook his head and said, "Then you have to ask Beihai Sword Master of the past."

After hearing what Beihai Sword Master said, Liu Ruoqin knew that her question was out of line, so she fell silent and stopped talking.

Beihai Sword Master looked at the water curtain with interest and said softly, "The second level is a test of one's sword character. If one does not pursue the Dao, even a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage will get lost in the illusion."

…

…

As the translucent shadows of the waves in the air gradually dissipated, the entire illusion began to shake violently.

In the next moment, the surrounding environment blurred for a moment, and then became clear again.

Lin Zhongtian looked around with interest and found that the sword peak under his feet had turned into a fairy mountain shrouded in clouds and mist.

The gurgling stream rushes along the mountain ridge, emitting a hazy spiritual light. Countless rich spiritual energy escapes from it, constantly nourishing the surrounding forests and the animals in the forest.

"Chiu——"

Suddenly, a clear crane cry was heard from the sky.

Lin Zhongtian looked up at the sky following the sound, and saw a crane flying out from the clouds and mist, landing gracefully beside a stream not far away.

Looking at the gurgling water and the cranes drinking water gracefully by the stream, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

"What a fairyland scene!"

"But...what is the goal of this second level?"

"It can't be possible to cultivate and become an immortal in this immortal mountain, right?"

Lin Zhongtian touched his chin, thought for a moment, and suddenly stretched out his right hand towards the crane by the stream.

The invisible force of space surged out instantly, locked onto the crane that was drinking water, and captured it in the palm of his hand.

"Never mind, let's taste the crane first!"

The crane struggled in fear, and Lin Zhongtian knocked it unconscious with a slap. Then he enthusiastically plucked its feathers and washed them by the stream.

A minute later, curls of smoke rose up, and a green fire burned on the spiritual wood that Lin Zhongtian had found, roasting the bald crane strung up by the branches above...

Smelling the meaty aroma coming from the crane, Lin Zhongtian couldn't help but marvel at it.

"And the imitation is quite similar!"

Although he had been suppressing his cultivation and spiritual awareness, he knew that this was just an illusion.

The crane in front of you is not a real creature, but a projection of spiritual energy simulated by an illusion.

Lin Zhongtian tore off a piece of crane meat, put it into his mouth and started chewing without adding any seasoning.

The barbecue melted in the mouth, disintegrating into pure spiritual energy and pouring into Lin Zhongtian's body.

…It’s indeed a spiritual energy projection!

Lin Zhongtian nodded with satisfaction, then took out a silver dagger and started cutting the crane meat with great interest.

Outside the water curtain, Beihai Sword Master looked at Lin Zhongtian, who was eating with his mouth full of oil in the illusion, with a strange expression.

Liu Ruoqin's mouth twitched, and she couldn't help but ask, "What's the problem?"

"There's a big problem!" Beihai Sword Master said in a dark tone, "His memory was supposed to be sealed by the secret realm, and he thought he was just a little Taoist practicing in this mountain, but looking at his appearance, it seems that his memory has not been sealed..."

"What should we do then?"

Liu Ruoqin worriedly asked, "Could it be that the inheritance land has not been opened for too long, and the formation of the illusion has become ineffective?"

"Impossible!" Beihai Sword Master asserted, "I suspect that this person has a treasure that can protect his soul!"

Treasures again. How come he has so many treasures?

Liu Ruoqin complained in her heart, her eyes inadvertently sweeping across the water curtain beside her.

Um?

Liu Ruoqin was slightly startled, and then said with surprise: "Uncle Master, Senior Brother Zhou also passed the test!"

"oh?"

Beihai Sword Master raised his eyebrows and turned to look at the water curtain beside him.

Zhou Tianyi opened his eyes in front of the sword monument, and slowly swung his fingers like swords.

In an instant, ripples appeared in the void around Zhou Tianyi, and countless green sword shadows emerged from behind him, connecting into a green sword curtain in the hazy green light, covering his entire body.

Seeing this scene, Beihai Sword Master couldn't help but look surprised.

"Is this... the Guardian Sword Intention?"

"Uncle Master, is there any problem?"

Liu Ruoqin asked quickly.

Beihai Sword Master shook his head: "There is nothing wrong with the sword intent itself."

"It's just that... this kind of sword intent does not exist on the sword monument I left behind."

At this point, Beihai Sword Master couldn't help but curl his lips, and said with interest: "Junior Brother Ruoqin, the two people you brought are quite interesting. One has comprehended all the sword intents, and the other has comprehended his own sword intent."

"No matter which one, it was not what I expected..."

Before he finished speaking, the illusion around Zhou Tianyi collapsed.

He also reached the second level like Lin Zhongtian next door.

But unlike Lin Zhongtian, after entering the second level of illusion, Zhou Tianyi showed a confused look on his face.

Then, after a while, Zhou Tianyi's eyes gradually regained clarity.

He glanced at the cranes drinking water by the stream and muttered quietly, "I've been out playing for too long today. I have to get back to the temple quickly, or my master will scold me again!"

After saying that, Zhou Tianyi turned around and set foot on the mountain road.

"That's right!"

Beihai Sword Master showed a satisfied smile on his face, indicating that there was nothing wrong with his illusion.

Not long after, a Taoist temple with green bricks and black tiles appeared in front of Zhou Tianyi.

Before Zhou Tianyi stepped in, he heard the conversation between the master and pilgrims in the Taoist temple.

Zhou Tianyi swallowed his saliva and carefully slipped into the Taoist temple, wanting to return to the room before his master noticed.

But unfortunately, the master still discovered his trace.

Just when Zhou Tianyi thought he was going to be scolded by his master, the other party called him over with a friendly face.

"Tianyi, you're back just in time. There's a ghost in Lijia Village down the mountain. Go and help them deal with it!"

After saying this, the master in Taoist robes turned and left, leaving only Zhou Tianyi and the pilgrim from Lijia Village standing in the temple.

It’s bad, I was conscripted again!

Zhou Tianyi sighed in his heart, then turned to look at the pilgrims around him.

It was not until then that he was shocked to find that this person was actually a beautiful girl dressed in cloth, with beautiful features, fair skin, and a body so hot that even the cloth could hardly cover it!

"Little Taoist priest, please save our village!"

"The village was haunted a few days ago, and many people died!"

The beautiful girl reached out and grabbed Zhou Tianyi's arm, a pleading look on her pretty face.

As he spoke, the buttons of his cloth shirt on his chest were pushed open by the huge mountains, revealing a large area of ​​white skin.

Seeing this scene, Liu Ruoqin outside the water curtain couldn't help but face darken, and turned to look at Beihai Sword Master.

Beihai Sword Master looked embarrassed, coughed lightly, and explained: "This is a plot that has been set long ago, and I have no choice..."
