71: Chapter 70 Spirit Space 71: Chapter 70 Spirit Space “The Cultivation Tower is divided into many areas, including the Spiritual Energy Zone, where the concentration of spiritual energy is many tis that of the outside.
There’s also the Gravity Zone, where different gravitational forces can be set for cultivation.”
Ye Qing explained as they walked, “In addition to that, there are so secret realms, just like real worlds, filled with many powerful creatures that many disciples enjoy training in.”
“I suggest you go to the Gravity Zone since you’ve just joined the Inner Sect.
Improving your strength is the most important thing.”
Lin Xuan stroked his chin, to be honest, he was quite interested in the secret realms.
“Sister, what exactly is in these secret realms?”
“You, kid!” Ye Qing frowned, “You just joined the Inner Sect and you want to enter the secret realms already!
Fine, let show you and spare you the curiosity.”
Ye Qing led Lin Xuan to the third level of the Cultivation Tower and entered an unoccupied room.
After Lin Xuan and Ye Qing entered, the room slamd shut.
The room was simple, only containing a strange array platform.
Ye Qing pointed at the black array and said, “Sit cross-legged on it, and then place your identity jade pendant into the slot.”
Lin Xuan did as told, only to see the array shine brightly, enveloping him in its light.
He felt his spirit shake, as if it had left his body, and was dragged into a mysterious place.
…
While Lin Xuan was experiencing the secret realm, so people had returned to the Inner Sect.
Among them was Zhang Bin’s brother—Zhang Qian—back from a mission.
The youth with a stern face and a war saber on his back beca furious when he heard about his brother’s death.
Learning that the killer had entered the Inner Sect drove him into further rage.
“Lin Xuan!
I must kill you!” Zhang Qian’s face was ferocious.
Zhang Qian’s return stirred the entire Inner Sect, and almost everyone soon knew about it.
Knowing Lin Xuan was the top new disciple this ti, they were all the more expectant.
However, most were just watching for entertainnt, not believing that a newcor to the Inner Sect could fight an experienced expert like Zhang Qian.
Unaware of the events outside, Lin Xuan had arrived in a special place.
With a flash of white light, Lin Xuan found himself in a strange place, resembling a maze.
Cold walls, long corridors, not a sound to be heard.
“What a strange place,” Lin Xuan murmured.
“Hm?
My body!” His face suddenly changed dramatically as he realized that the mysterious small sword inside him was gone, leaving him montarily stunned.
Hiss hiss hiss!
In that brief mont of distraction, three sword lights silently appeared, aiming for his vitals.
At that critical mont, a martial artist’s alertness snapped him back to reality, and his Illusion Thunder Step moved, leaving behind a residual image.
He narrowly dodged the lethal attack.
The three sword lights missed, and soon after, three n in black erged from the void, watching Lin Xuan coldly.
“What a bizarre place, what bizarre swordsmanship!” Lin Xuan’s heart sank slightly as he finally understood why Ye Qing was against him coming here—it was terrifyingly dangerous.
A slight mishap could lead to death.
But Lin Xuan quickly speculated, “Maybe my body didn’t enter, and only my spirit did!”
Lin Xuan was right; this was indeed a strange spirit space, unbeknownst to him before because Ye Qing wanted to teach him a lesson.
“Spirit space, huh?” Lin Xuan cald down.
“Without the Sword Intent Seed, I can hardly unleash the Sword Intent.
I have to rely solely on my own strength.”
At the thought, a longsword ford in his hand.
“With no restraints here, I can fully unleash my skills.” Lin Xuan laughed heartily, sword in hand, as he approached his attackers.
The three n in black, all at the Sixth Rank of Pulse Condensation, coordinated well enough to slay a Seventh-Order Cultivator.
Three silent longswords, like poison snakes in the darkness, lay in wait, each strike angled cunningly.
Lin Xuan used Illusion Thunder Step, his body moved unpredictably, and in an instant, he was behind a man in black.
A golden sword light flashed, and a blood hole appeared in the forehead of the man in black, who collapsed with a thud.
Puff puff!
Two more sword lights followed, and the other two n in black were also pierced through the forehead, unable to resist at all.
Although he did not possess the Sword Intent Seed, Lin Xuan still managed to simulate a bit of the aura of Thunder Sword Intent.
He did not pause and continued to move forward.
Outside, Ye Qing wore a smile.
She had not inford Lin Xuan about the mysteries of the Array in advance as she wanted to teach him a lesson.
According to her prediction, Lin Xuan should have been defeated and expelled quickly.
However, after half an hour, there was no response from Lin Xuan; he was still inside the Spirit Space.
“This…” Ye Qing’s mouth dropped open; she even suspected there was a problem with the Array because how else could she explain Lin Xuan not coming out for such a long ti?
She knew the Array very well; the opponents inside were formidable, starting with opponents at the Sixth Rank of Pulse Condensation and increasing in number from three to ten, then opponents at the Seventh Level of Pulse Condensation, and so on.
According to her estimation of Lin Xuan, he should only have survived the first assassination attempt, and once the number increased to four, he would retreat.
But the situation was completely unexpected.
A full hour passed before Lin Xuan ca out.
As Lin Xuan’s body flickered within the Array, Ye Qing finally breathed a sigh of relief; she had genuinely feared that there was a problem with the Array.
“What did you experience inside that you only ca out now?” Ye Qing asked suspiciously.
“Oh, I’m good with movent techniques and was able to delay the opponents,” Lin Xuan lied, not wanting to reveal too much.
In fact, inside the Spirit Space, Lin Xuan had already broken through the encirclent of Sixth Rank opponents, and even against three Seventh-Level attackers, he had stubbornly held on.
However, such revelations were too frightening to disclose, for he did not want to cause a sensation.
“I see.” Hearing that Lin Xuan used his movent technique to buy ti, Ye Qing finally relaxed.
“Let’s go, the remaining ti can be used later,” said Lin Xuan, his spirit returning to his body.
He found that his integration with the Sword Intent Seed had deepened, which delighted him.
The two of them left the Cultivation Tower, preparing to head ho, when suddenly, a group of people surrounded them.
“Are you Lin Xuan?” A young man carrying a war saber spoke coldly.
“Zhang Qian, what do you an by this!” Ye Qing, standing by, said angrily.
“Zhang Qian!” Lin Xuan’s pupils contracted slightly as he cautiously observed the figure before him, feeling a pressure emanating from his realm.
“Seventh Rank of Pulse Condensation!” Lin Xuan was inwardly shocked.
However, his face remained calm: “I am Lin Xuan, what do you want?”
Lin Xuan’s deanor took the crowd by surprise; it seed this young man was not afraid of Zhang Qian.
Could he be relying on sothing?
“You killed my brother, and you dare ask what I want?” Zhang Qian was like an angry tiger, ready to explode at any mont.
“What do you want?” Lin Xuan asked, no longer bothering to explain, as it was useless.
“A life for a life,” Zhang Qian’s voice was as cold as a wind from the Northern Country, chilling to the bone.
“Zhang Qian, you dare!
Lin Xuan is a disciple of Instructor Murong!” Ye Qing warned.
“Instructor Murong!” The people around all looked at Lin Xuan in surprise, seemingly not expecting him to be a disciple of Instructor Murong.
“Kid, I’ll make you realize, no one can save you!” Zhang Qian still did not back down.
Lin Xuan’s eyes chilled slightly, knowing there was no room for negotiation in this matter; only one could remain standing.
“Three months from now, a life-or-death duel, do you dare?” Lin Xuan slowly spoke.
