Chapter 9: Three Swords of Life and Death, Test

Watching Wang Yong slowly walk into the Mission Pavilion, Ye Lin turned and left. The panel showed that Wang Yong was encountered this afternoon.

It was clear that Wang Yong was going to accept a mission, and in the afternoon, after completing the mission, he would encounter a heavily injured Qi Training Fifth Level Loose Cultivator in Moon Reflection Valley.

While Wang Yong was busy accepting the mission, he needed to quickly arrive at Moon Reflection Valley. The time to seize this Opportunity was short, so he had to act quickly and decisively, absolutely not allowing Wang Yong to encounter him.

Then Ye Lin turned and walked down the mountain.

Moon Reflection Valley is a canyon located a few kilometers from Qingyun Sect, where Yao Beasts of Qi Training Stage - Level 1 and 2 reside.

However, these Yao Beasts have little value and are extremely difficult to kill, which is why few people come here.

Soon, Ye Lin arrived in Moon Reflection Valley. After searching for a while, Ye Lin did not find any heavily injured Loose Cultivator.

"Did I come too early?"

Ye Lin, lying in the woods, murmured to himself, looked at the sun in the sky, then sat cross-legged in a patch of grass. The lush vegetation around him perfectly concealed his tracks.

After several hours of waiting, Ye Lin's eyes suddenly opened, and he looked towards the valley.

In the valley, a man in a black robe was clutching his chest, limping towards him, occasionally spitting blood.

"Damn it, these people are too insane. Isn't it just a Yellow Rank High Grade Martial Skill? Just wait, when I achieve success in Cultivation, I'll go back and kill all of you."

"But this seems to be Moon Reflection Valley. If I go further, it will be the location of Qingyun Sect. If I am discovered by someone from Qingyun Sect, I will surely die."

Li Cheng's face was grim. He was an evil Cultivator, and if he were discovered by a Righteous Path Sect like Qingyun Sect, which appeared righteous on the surface, he would have no chance of escape.

But the next moment, Li Cheng's eyes suddenly widened as he looked at the long sword in his chest, his head slowly tilting backward.

"Wh-why?"

After speaking, Li Cheng's body fell heavily to the ground, his aura dissipating.

"We have no grievances, I originally intended to spare your life, but an evil Cultivator, no."

Ye Lin said as he crouched before Li Cheng's body, reaching towards his chest.

Evil Cultivators are extremely wicked Cultivators who stop at nothing to improve their strength, mostly Cultivating with Mortal blood essence.

A thousand years ago, a Soul Transformation Stage evil Cultivator mighty figure, seeking a Breakthrough, slaughtered three entire Mortal Dynasties, using the lives of tens of millions of people to achieve his Breakthrough.

Since then, all Immortal cultivators have utterly detested evil Cultivators.

"Found it."

Looking at a rather tattered book and five Low-Grade Spirit Stones in his hand, Ye Lin was delighted. He hadn't expected such an unexpected gain.

After taking the items, Ye Lin put away his long sword and walked away, quickly leaving the place.

After several detours, Ye Lin arrived at a cave. Then he took out the Three Swords of Life and Death.

Since his last Cultivation session, he had experienced the terrifying aspect of his Divine Comprehension fate. As long as it was a Yellow Rank Martial Skill Cultivation Technique, he only needed to read it to grasp its basics.

Ordinary people couldn't grasp the basics in two or three months, but he only needed to read it once.

"What a terrifying Secret Manual."

After finishing reading the Three Swords of Life and Death, Ye Lin murmured, then burned the Secret Manual. It would be bad if such a thing were discovered. Although he was a Utility Disciple supervisor, a Yellow Rank High Grade Martial Skill was too precious, so it was better to be cautious.

The Three Swords of Life and Death are divided into three levels.

The first level is the Life Sword, the second level is the Yin and Yang Sword, and the third level is the Death Sword.

Moreover, the power of the second level is more than double that of the first, and when the third sword is unleashed, its power can increase by nearly eight times, which is extremely outrageous.

However, the Cultivation method for the Three Swords of Life and Death is extremely demanding. The first two levels are incredibly easy to Cultivate, but the third level requires an Epiphany between life and death.

Then Ye Lin picked up his long sword and slowly began to Cultivate in the cave. Cultivating within the Qingyun Sect would be too conspicuous.

As time passed, his Comprehension Ability of this sword technique deepened, and the sword moves flashed through his mind like a movie.

"Slash."

Suddenly, Ye Lin's eyes widened in anger, and he let out a loud shout, then slashed forward. In an instant, a Sword Qi appeared, and a crack, one meter long and two centimeters deep, appeared on the stone wall of the cave.

"Phew, the first level has been mastered."

Seeing this, Ye Lin was delighted and took a deep breath. After several hours of Cultivation, the first level of his sword technique had now been mastered, reaching the stage of 'One Sword Life'.

Without a Martial Skill, he would not have been able to unleash Sword Qi at all, because without a Martial Skill, even if he did, it would just be a scattered Qi.

But now, with a Martial Skill, this scattered Qi could be condensed, and with one sword strike, he could injure people from a distance.

"Cultivation truly makes time fly."

Ye Lin came out of the cave, looked at the full moon and the scattered stars in the sky, and sighed with emotion.

Then Ye Lin put away his long sword and walked towards the Sect gate.

As soon as he stepped into the Sect, Ye Lin felt something was wrong. He felt as if a pair of eyes in the dark were watching him.

"Has he come?"

Ye Lin smirked, then nonchalantly walked towards his dwelling.

Just then, suddenly, a sword shadow flashed from the shadows, heading straight for his left arm. He instantly understood the strength of the attacker.

Qi Training Fifth Level. If he were truly at Qi Training Stage - Level 3, he wouldn't have even noticed this sword, let alone dodged it.

"Who's there?"

Suddenly, Ye Lin shouted, rolling to his right. Instantly, he heard a tearing sound, and a splash of blood appeared on his left arm.

"Help! There's an assassin! Help!"

Ye Lin shouted, clutching his arm. At the same time, he exerted force with his right hand, causing blood to continuously flow from his left arm.

After Ye Lin's several screams, several figures quickly rushed towards him.

"Qi Training Stage - Level 3, truly a waste."

In the shadows, Zhao Hu, dressed in black, looked at Ye Lin, who was lying on the ground screaming in the distance, and sneered, then disappeared into the night.

Now that he had determined Ye Lin's true strength, things would be easier.

Originally, he had some doubts about Ye Lin's strength, but now, his doubts were dispelled.

If Ye Lin was truly stronger than Qi Training Stage - Level 3, he should have reacted as soon as he made his move, instead of waiting for the sword to stab his left arm before dodging.

"What's wrong? Supervisor, what happened to you?"

At this moment, several Utility Disciple team leaders rushed over and helped Ye Lin up.

"Someone in the Sect wants to kill me, investigate it."

Ye Lin said to the team leaders with a face full of anger. Upon hearing this, the team leaders immediately responded.

"Since someone wants to assassinate the supervisor, this is outrageous! I will report to the Elder immediately."

"You few, search the surroundings for me."

Watching the Utility Disciple team leaders split up to investigate, and the dozens of Utility Disciples feigning action, Ye Lin sneered inwardly, then walked towards his dwelling.

Watching Ye Lin disappear, the team leaders finally stopped their actions.

The one who could assassinate Ye Lin must be an Outer Sect Disciple, and Outer Sect Disciples were not someone they could provoke. Their actions just now were merely to fool Ye Lin.

After a few minutes of investigation, all the Utility Disciples returned to their dwellings and began to sleep soundly, as if nothing had happened.
