Full-time Swordsman

Sword Purifying Pool.

"Disciple Lin Jichen, hello to the third master!"

Lin Jichen respectfully worshipped the great elder Tianming who was still sitting by the pool.

This was what Leng Feiyan told him after he woke up.

Regarding the matter of having one more master, Lin Jichen said that he would not refuse anyone who came!

More masters, more backers, who dares to mess with him in the Tianyan Sword Sect now? Hehe!

The great elder Tianming opened his eyes and smiled lightly:

"Since the headmaster allows it, then I will make an exception and accept you as a disciple, but I am just your guest master like your second master, the great elder Tianqing, and the headmaster is your real master. You must remember this."

"I'm sorry that I dare not agree with this." Lin Jichen replied.

"Oh? Why?"

Lin Jichen said seriously: "In my opinion, once you become my teacher, you will always be my father. Regardless of whether you are the host or the guest, you are all my mentors!"

"Hahaha, good, well said!"

Great Elder Tianming laughed a few times, and looked at Lin Jichen with more satisfaction.

[Ding! Great Elder Tianming's favorability towards you +25 points! Current favorability: 25 (riding together)]

Lin Jichen thought that he had completed his apprenticeship, but he didn't expect that Great Elder Tianming suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked him in a somewhat obscene manner: "Disciple, since you are my apprentice, why don't you bring the apprenticeship gift?"

"Ah? This... I forgot to prepare..."

Lin Jichen didn't expect that Great Elder Tianming would ask him for the apprenticeship gift.

He has been playing games for so long, and this is the first time he has heard that the master asks the apprentice for a gift when he is apprenticed...

Isn't it usually the master who gives the new apprentice a gift?

Elder Tianming was not angry, but smiled and said: "In this case, let's keep it simple. Do you have any wine?"

"Wine? I do have it. I bought it from Zuixianlou."

When Elder Tianming heard this, his eyes lit up and he said: "Wine from Zuixianlou? Come on, good disciple, bring it to me."

Lin Jichen had no choice but to take out a jar of wine from his ring and bring it to his master.

As soon as Elder Tianming took the jar of wine, he couldn't wait to open the lid. When he smelled the aroma of the wine, he immediately showed an intoxicated look.

"Good wine, good wine!"

As he said, he couldn't wait to drink it.

Lin Jichen looked at this new master acting like this and was a little confused. Why did he feel that this master was like a...drunkard...

He quickly drank up the jar of wine.

"Good disciple, do you have any more?"

"Uh...Yes, there is plenty of wine." Lin Jichen said and took out all the wine in the ring.

Elder Tianming gulped down one jar after another.

Before long, he was a little tipsy.

"Good wine, disciple. When you come to see me next time, bring me more wine, okay?"

Lin Jichen smiled bitterly and nodded: "I understand, Third Master."

"Okay!" Elder Tianming shouted, holding the wine jar and stood up, his steps staggering, and he seemed to be no different from a drunk on the street.

When Lin Jichen was thinking about whether to help him, a sword energy suddenly passed by his ear and hit a huge sword-testing stone behind him.

The sword-testing stone was chopped into powder by the sword energy on the spot.

And Elder Tianming seemed to do nothing, still holding the wine jar in both hands.

Just when Lin Jichen thought it was someone else's fault, Elder Tianming grinned.

"Disciple, do you know why the master wants you to worship me as your master?"

"I don't know." Lin Jichen shook his head.

Elder Tianming continued: "In terms of swordsmanship and cultivation, the master is more than ten times stronger than me, but she still asked me to teach you because I practice a completely different swordsmanship."

"May I ask, Third Master, what swordsmanship do you practice..." Lin Jichen asked curiously.

Elder Tianming patted the wine jar and laughed: "That's the swordsmanship in wine!"

"The swordsmanship in wine??" Lin Jichen was surprised.

"That's right! Do you know my title back then? It was the Drunken Sword Immortal! Except for the master, no one can fight without losing when I am drunk!"

Elder Tianming proudly showed off his glorious deeds in the past.

Lin Jichen asked tentatively: "Even Elder Tianjian is not your opponent?"

"Haha, I can't say for sure, but we are on par with each other, for sure, and we haven't fought for many years." Elder Tianming answered honestly.

But this was enough to shock Lin Jichen.

Elder Tianming's strength is actually comparable to Elder Tianjian's?

Elder Tianjian is the chief elder, and the elder with the strongest combat power.

I didn't expect that Elder Tianming, who ranks last, has such strength?

"Master, doesn't that mean you have to get drunk before fighting?"

Lin Jichen asked.If you really have to get drunk before every fight, it would be too embarrassing, so you can only drink from the jar before the fight.

If you encounter an emergency or a sneak attack, don’t you have to drink while running?

This seems a bit useless...

Is this thing really practical?

Just when Lin Jichen was skeptical about this, the great elder Tianming laughed out loud.

"If I had to drink before every fight, I would have died young."

Great Elder Tianming explained: "The so-called swordsmanship in wine refers to a special swordsmanship, which uses wine as a guide and drunkenness as a form. I draw my sword while drunk and challenge my enemies while drunk. This is the swordsmanship that I specialize in, which is different from most swordsmen."

"And my swordsmanship does not really require drinking in advance, but entering a drunken state, pursuing the free and easy sword spirit, enjoying the rivers and lakes, and indulging in the world!"

Lin Jichen seemed to understand and nodded: "So that's it, Master, then you should teach me the swordsmanship in wine!"

Great Elder Tianming laughed and said: "The swordsmanship in wine is not so easy to learn. Today, I will teach you a move, the drunkard slash and the drunken rivers and lakes."

Lin Jichen immediately became energetic after hearing this. It was worth the trip to learn new skills for free!

[Earth-grade martial arts·Drunken Slash]: With unexpected force, a sword energy is suddenly slashed out within 200 meters in front of the opponent. The opponent will not be able to dodge with body skills. After hitting, it can cause 2000~20000 points of skill damage. After successfully performing, the opponent's next martial arts will 100% fail.

Cooling time: 20 minutes, mana consumption: 9000 points.

Requirements: Only Yuanying realm sword cultivators with a root bone of 90 or above can learn.

....

[Earth-grade spiritual skills·Drunken Jianghu]: After performing, damage +2~20%, dodge +2~20%, sword hit rate +2~20%, lasting 10 minutes.

Cooling time: 50 minutes, mana consumption: 11000 points.

Requirements: Only Yuanying realm sword cultivators with a root bone of 92 or above can learn.

....

Lin Jichen looked at the two secret books given to him by Elder Tianming, his eyes full of joy.

"Thank you, Master! Can I learn it?"

Grand Elder Tianming laughed and said, "Of course."

"Then I won't be polite."

After Lin Jichen finished speaking, he sat cross-legged and began to study the two new secret books seriously.
