Two months have passed since the two major sects of Bei Chen Star were destroyed. During these two months, the Seven Star Sword Sect and the Heavenly Sword Dynasty have been taking over the industries of the three quasi-Emperor forces, including Zhongyuan City.
Although the Heavenly Sword Dynasty did not truly participate in this ten-year agreement, Li Beifei's original plan was to have Yan Chuan deal with enemies above the Saint realm, while he would trigger the lightning tribulation to rush into the enemies below the Saint realm. The Heavenly Sword Dynasty's army would guard the borderlands of the Seven Star Sword Sect's territory, responsible for hunting down fleeing enemies.
However, as the saying goes, plans can't keep up with changes. No one expected that the final outcome would be Li Beifei awakening Li Beichen's Dao fruit and killing all enemies with a single sword.
After Murong Tianjian learned that Li Beifei was the reincarnation of the Sword Emperor, his heart was very complicated. He had already planned to give up participating in sharing the fruits of victory, but he didn't expect that the Seven Star Sword Sect would give them one-third of the benefits. If he weren't the emperor of the Heavenly Sword Dynasty, representing the fundamental interests of an entire dynasty, he would have even thought about joining the Seven Star Sword Sect.
But now, this ending can be considered beautiful.
The news that Li Beifei was the reincarnation of the Seven Star Sword Emperor Li Beichen also completely spread throughout the entire Bei Chen Star, causing countless sword cultivators on Bei Chen Star to frantically rush towards the Seven Star Sword Sect's base to瞻仰 the Sword Emperor's demeanor, forcing Li Beifei to not dare to show his face at all.
Every day, countless sword cultivators crowded around the ten-thousand-mile sword mark in front of the Seven Star Sword Sect's mountain gate. Some were there to瞻仰 the sword mark left by the Sword Emperor, while others wanted to comprehend something from the sword intent emanating from the sword mark. If they were lucky enough to comprehend a trace of the Sword Emperor's Sword Dao, it would be infinitely beneficial to them.
For a time, this ten-thousand-mile sword mark became the sacred land for sword cultivators of Bei Chen Star.
This day, Li Beifei was teaching his two disciples how to cultivate.
He first looked at his youngest disciple, Yi Jifeng, and said, "Xiao Feng, do you know that you possess a special physique?"
Yi Jifeng nodded and said, "Replying to Master, this disciple knows. It was Grandmaster who told me."
"That's good. You have a natural sword body, and you are the darling of the Sword Dao. There is nothing in this world more suitable for cultivating the Sword Dao than a sword body, except for your master, of course. Your master is a genius among geniuses, so you don't need to compare yourself to your master," Li Beifei said with a smile.
"..."
"Master, I didn't want to compare myself to you. You said it yourself," Yi Jifeng said straightforwardly.
"Pa!"
Li Beifei slapped Yi Jifeng on the back of the head and scolded, "Don't interrupt when your master is speaking. Also, the reason why your master said that is just to prevent you from being too arrogant. You must know that there are people beyond people, and mountains beyond mountains."
"Is it like there's a Grandmaster above Master?" Yi Jifeng subconsciously said. After saying that, he quickly covered his mouth and dodged his neck, as if he was about to be hit.
Duanmu Yun covered her mouth and snickered.
"Hmph, just know it in your heart. You don't have to say it out loud." Li Beifei's face darkened. Okay, I know that old guy is good to you. Are you threatening your master by mentioning the old guy now, huh?
But Li Beifei really didn't hit Yi Jifeng again.
"Your master will impart the Seven Star Sword Art to you. I hope you won't let your master down!" Li Beifei looked at Yi Jifeng with an extremely serious expression.
Upon hearing this, Yi Jifeng immediately knelt down with a "plop" and kowtowed three times, his forehead breaking and bleeding, but he was completely unaware. He just said with an excited expression, "Thank you, Master. This disciple will definitely not let Master down."
Duanmu Yun, who was beside him, looked enviously at her young master and junior brother. She had been in the sect for two months, and she was no longer the ignorant girl she once was. She naturally knew about the Seven Star Sword Art. That was the Emperor-level technique cultivated by the Sword Emperor, an supreme Sword Dao technique that countless sword cultivators wouldn't even dare to dream of.
After the young master and junior brother cultivates the Seven Star Sword Art, he will definitely become even stronger. That's great!
Duanmu Yun only had envy and no jealousy. The better Yi Jifeng was, the happier she would be. She didn't expect to obtain the Seven Star Sword Art like the young master and junior brother, but she was also looking forward to what techniques and secrets her master would impart to her.
Li Beifei turned his gaze to Duanmu Yun. He pondered for a long time and said, "Xiao Yun, do you also want to cultivate the Sword Dao?"
"Yes, Master!" Duanmu Yun nodded. As a native of Bei Chen Star, Duanmu Yun was naturally very enthusiastic about the Sword Dao.
"Is that so..."
Li Beifei pondered. He originally wanted to impart the martial arts of the Di Hong Clan to Duanmu Yun, because Duanmu Yun's willpower was outstanding even among the geniuses he had encountered. However, Duanmu Yun's talent was lacking. If he let her cultivate martial arts, her future would be unpredictable.
At first, Li Beifei didn't think so much. He only thought that Duanmu Yun was very suitable for cultivating martial arts in terms of willpower, but gradually, the thoughts in his heart changed.
He was now Duanmu Yun's master. As the saying goes, 'Once a teacher, always a father.' He had the obligation and responsibility to be responsible for Duanmu Yun's future.
He was only thinking about finding a suitable successor for the Di Hong Clan's martial arts, but he hadn't thought about what Duanmu Yun really wanted. Wasn't this too selfish?
Suddenly, Li Beifei remembered the gifts that the old guy had given to the two people in front of him. They were swords. Perhaps the old guy had already hinted at it, but he didn't pay attention to it at the time.
In the end, under Duanmu Yun's expectant gaze, Li Beifei said, "That's good, but your master's Seven Star Sword Art can't be passed on to you, because the Seven Star Sword Art requires at least one of the sword body or sword bone physique to cultivate. You are not a special physique, so you can't cultivate it."
Although Duanmu Yun had been mentally prepared, she was still a little disappointed when she heard her master say that she couldn't cultivate the Seven Star Sword Art.
"Are you feeling disappointed already?" Li Beifei said with a chuckle, "Your master hasn't said what technique I'm going to impart to you yet."
"What technique can compare to the technique created by the Great Emperor?" Duanmu Yun asked.
"The technique that your master is going to impart to you is called the Heaven Splitting Sword Art, and it was created by your master!" After saying that, Li Beifei raised his head high, waiting for his disciple's praise.
"Ah... Master, you created the technique yourself? And the Heaven Splitting Sword Art is so similar to the Heaven Splitting Sword Sect that has already been destroyed. Isn't that not very good?"
Duanmu Yun's originally expectant expression suddenly collapsed.
"What, are you looking down on your master's Heaven Splitting Sword Art?" Li Beifei was unhappy.
"Um..."
Duanmu Yun nodded and then shook her head.
"Little girl!" Li Beifei was both angry and amused.
In the end, Duanmu Yun still accepted Li Beifei's Heaven Splitting Sword Art.
"Your master's Heaven Splitting Sword Art only has one sword technique now. Xiao Yun, your talent is not as good as your junior brother's. If you want to keep up with your junior brother's footsteps, then you can only concentrate on practicing this one sword technique well, achieving one sword to break all techniques. At that time, you won't be worse than anyone else."
Li Beifei said.
"Yes!"
Duanmu Yun responded loudly.
In the next two months, Li Beifei would personally teach Yi Jifeng and Duanmu Yun every day. Yi Jifeng had mastered the Seven Star Sword Art a month ago, while Duanmu Yun's Heaven Splitting Sword Art only touched the threshold of cultivation yesterday, which made Duanmu Yun very worried.
As the sect master's eldest disciple, her talent was worse than the other disciples. If this were to spread, she wouldn't be afraid of losing face, but she was afraid of losing her master's face.
She worked hard every day to swing the long sword in her hand, just so that her master wouldn't lose face. She also hoped that her master wouldn't blame her for being so hardworking.
However, today, her master and several uncles were about to leave with Grandmaster.
Before leaving, Li Beifei rubbed Duanmu Yun's head and said, "Your master is going to conquer the Ancient Starry Sky Road. I hope that after your master comes out, you will have become a female sword saint who shakes the universe."
Just as Duanmu Yun was about to speak, she saw her master being carried away by the neck by Grandmaster.
"Stinky brat, dawdling!"
