One Sword to Heaven

Chapter 3 Changes
"How about the casualties?"

Outside Jingtie Cave in Houshan, a middle-aged man with hanging eyebrows carrying a long sword looked sternly at the guard disciples carrying corpses out of the cave. This person is Chen Tong, the elder of the outer sect deacon of Aojian Villa. , mainly responsible for guarding the back mountain.

Facing the frosty Elder Chen, the deacon who was in charge of the mine could not help but wipe off his cold sweat, lowered his head and said, "Report to Elder Chen, a total of 49 handyman disciples died."

"Damn things!"

Hearing the casualties, Elder Chen couldn't help becoming furious. He raised his hand and slapped the deacon, and then said, "So, only one person survived from the group of handyman disciples who went to work in the afternoon? Where were you when the incident happened? How many people came to attack?"

"The subordinates were caught in a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain. When they turned around, those people had already withdrawn, and only seven or eight figures were seen from a distance. The group of people who wanted to come to attack the mine should be no less than ten people."

The deacon received a slap in the face, but he did not dare to act rashly. He lowered his head and reported the situation truthfully. Elder Chen was about to get angry again. At that time, a disciple guarding the mountain came forward and said: "Report to Elder Chen, I found a A surviving handyman disciple, and another corpse was found, and it has been confirmed that it is not a disciple of the sect."

"Huh? Bring people over."

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Chen saw a short-haired young man with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and wide ears, wearing a uniform of a handyman disciple, walking from the entrance of the cave, accompanied by two disciples guarding the mountain. Behind him, there were two more disciples carrying the mountain. Wearing a corpse in a navy blue robe.

Seeing this, Elder Chen moved his feet and appeared in front of the short-haired young man in a flash. He first glanced at the corpse, then his eyes fell on the long sword in the short-haired young man's hand, and said: "Bishui Sword" ? How did this sword come about?"

This short-haired young man was naturally Wang Yan. Facing the powerful Elder Chen, Wang Yan did not dare to delay and told everything that happened in the cave. As for touching the corpse, he naturally never mentioned it.

"According to what you said, the martial arts of this group of attackers are only ordinary, but the organization is orderly and the plan is clear, so to speak"

Elder Chen's eyes flashed, and he didn't know what he was thinking of. However, he didn't fully believe what Wang Yan said. He stretched out his hand and counted on the body of the fair-skinned man before taking back his hand and murmuring: "It's true that my cultivation level is not high, and I can only understand three of the six meridians of my hands and feet. Under such circumstances, my martial arts and light kung fu skills are by no means superb. But I don't know where the thieves came from, and they dare to come to my Aojian Villa to cause trouble!"

Elder Chen turned his head and stared fiercely at the deacon again, looking extremely annoyed, but in the end he just snorted heavily, turned his head to look at Wang Yan and said, "You have done meritorious service this time, not only killing a thief, I have also investigated a lot of situations. My Aojian Villa has always been very clear about rewards and punishments. How about this, you don’t have to go to work for these two days, take a good rest, and I will give you this thing as your credit for this time reward."

As he spoke, Elder Chen took out a gray token from his bosom. The word 'Sword Scripture' was engraved in the center of the token. Wang Yan couldn't help being shocked when he saw it. He had recognized it since he had been a beginner for five years.

"With this token, you can go to the first floor of the Jianjing Pavilion in the outer gate and choose a secret book to practice by yourself. Boy, you are not bad, work hard."

After saying this, Elder Chen ignored Wang Yan again, but only gave some instructions to the deacon and the leading disciple guarding the mountain, and after making some arrangements, he performed lightness kung fu and flew away.

Seeing Elder Chen's figure go far away, Wang Yan secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and was about to put away the token of the sword scriptures, but saw the deacon in charge of the mine come over, this person did not dare to breathe in front of Elder Chen, But facing the mere handyman disciples, he was arrogant, and said coldly to Wang Yan: "Since Elder Chen said, you will not be used for work in the next two days, but you are still a handyman disciple, and you should go to work every day." The fine iron ore handed over must not fall."

After the mine deacon finished speaking, he turned around and left regardless of Wang Yan's reaction. As for the surrounding disciples who guarded the mountain, they all went their own way and ignored Wang Yan. The person at the outer door dashed away from his home.

Wang Yancai returned to his residence half an hour later. After closing the door, he couldn't wait to take out the trophies hidden on his body one by one. After sorting, there were nine copper coins, 23 silver coins, and gold coins. Three beans, one copper key, and the Blue Water Sword, this time is really a great harvest.

Don't look at it as just some gold and silver property, you must know that Wang Yanmen has been mining hard every day for five years and has only saved two slings of copper coins. Even entering the practice field will cost money. With this money, among other things, Wang Yan at least doesn’t have to go to mine every day, because the handyman disciples don’t have to go to work, but they have to hand in a piece of fine iron ore every day or ten common iron ore.

"I heard that Baoyaotang sells a elixir that increases the speed of cultivation. With this money, maybe I should take some time to see it."

Wang Yan happily put away the scattered silver and copper coins, then settled down, and began to carefully recall the scenes that happened in the mine today. As his thoughts flowed, Wang Yan was sure that he had become different from before, but He couldn't tell the specific changes, except for that, he thought for a long time about the whereabouts of the sword-stepping secret book that the white man said.

"Anyway, I can't live my life like before. If someone comes to the villa to make trouble next time, I'm afraid I won't be so lucky. I should make full use of these silver taels and sword scripture tokens in the next few days Get up, improve your cultivation as soon as possible, and strengthen your martial arts."

Thinking of this, Wang Yan couldn't help activating the Jianyuan Heart Sutra, wanting to see if his internal strength had changed after the previous life-and-death struggle, but when he thought about it, a row of information came to mind.

"Martial arts qualification: middle and lower (understanding: 55, root bone: 19, no special cultivation qualification.)
Known martial arts:
Jianyuan Heart Sutra, yellow-level high-grade internal strength, current progress - third level (19612/30000)

Blood Sword Finger, a middle-grade yellow-level martial skill, the current progress - the second stage of the first form (3255/4000), the first stage of the second form (1255/3000), and the first stage of the third form (863/3000).

All current experience points: 300. "

Before that, every time Wang Yan checked his cultivation situation, similar information would appear in his mind, but it was by no means so detailed, especially the information in brackets was the first time he had seen it today, and more importantly, it was Wang Yan’s previous experience. There is no experience value among the information obtained.

What does this experience value represent?what's the effect?
For a while, Wang Yan couldn't figure it out, but he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he focused on his roots and comprehension. After thinking about it for a while, he closed his eyes and practiced the Jianyun Heart Sutra. .After a full two hours, after the internal qi in his body had passed through the circle and completed a round of exercises, Wang Yan just opened his eyes and checked his cultivation status again.

"Jianyuan Heart Sutra, Huang-level upper-grade internal strength, current progress - the third level (19631/30000)"

Compared with before performing the exercises, the number in brackets has increased by 19 points. Seeing such a change, Wang Yan couldn't help muttering: "It seems that the numbers in brackets represent the specific progress of cultivation. My root bone is 19. I can only increase my cultivation speed by 19 points once I perform the exercise, no wonder my internal energy is still so poor after five years."

In Wang Yan's memory, in the five years since he started practicing, he practiced internal skills once a day in the morning and evening, which is considered diligent. But now that he knows the specific qualifications, after careful calculation, he can only practice to the current level.This fact made Wang Yan a little frustrated, but then he thought of something again, and his eyes fell on the experience value. Following his thoughts, he saw that the number of experience points decreased rapidly, and the cultivation speed of Jianyuan Heart Sutra Started to improve rapidly.

19931!

After the experience value returned to zero, the cultivation level of Jianyuan Heart Sutra increased by 300 points, and Wang Yandeng was overjoyed.

"I didn't expect that this experience value can directly improve practice. If so, wouldn't it be true?"

In an instant, Wang Yan recalled the pleasure he felt after killing the fair-skinned man. He was almost certain that the experience value came from the mysterious power he obtained at that time. When he thought of this, his eyes couldn't help but flash. After a while, The whole talent calmed down.Afterwards, Wang Yan filled a basin of water to wash away the blood on his body, put on a piece of clean clothes, picked up the Blue Water Sword and went out.
