Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

The two men stood facing each other with swords in their hands, looking at each other in silence. They all knew that today's battle would be the best test of Zhou Yiqiao's training results in the past six months.

Without any reservation or words, Qiu Yutong shook his sword, and the tip of the sword drew mysterious tracks in the air. The sword light poured down like flowing water, enveloping Zhou Yiqiao completely.

Zhou Yiqiao raised his hand and waved it, and the Netherworld Demon Sword, with a violent spiritual power, met Qiu Yutong's sword light.

When the two swords collided, there was a sound of metal clashing, which shook down most of the books in the Fighting Pavilion.

The two figures moved quickly in the Fighting Pavilion, sword light and spiritual power intertwined, bursting out dazzling sparks.

Zhou Yiqiao's sword power became faster and faster, more and more violent, like a raging wave, crushing forward madly.

Qiu Yutong's swordsmanship was still sharp, and every sword was extremely precise, aiming directly at Zhou Yiqiao's vital points.

Fortunately, thanks to half a year of hard training, Zhou Yiqiao was able to deal with the situation calmly. His body movements became more agile, his sword moves became more sophisticated, and he was able to match Qiu Yutong's sword skills on equal terms.

As the battle progressed, the two men's swordsmanship became faster and faster, and the fluctuations of their spiritual energy became stronger and stronger.

The spiritual energy in the Fighting Pavilion was drawn by the swordsmanship of the two men, forming a huge vortex of spiritual energy that revolved around the two men.

Zhou Yiqiao felt that the spiritual power in his body was constantly circulating, and every time he drew his sword he felt an unprecedented sense of pleasure.

All his life's learning was put to perfect use at this moment. His sword skills, body movements, and spiritual power were all greatly improved in this battle.

Zhou Yiqiao's heart was surging with excitement, and the passion for battle was surging at this moment. He even forgot the existence of time and that he was competing with Qiu Yutong. He was just immersed in the battle with Qiu Yutong.

On the other side, Qiu Yutong felt extremely threatened. Originally, she was confident that she could defeat Zhou Yiqiao, but now she was in danger and sweating profusely.

The battle became more and more intense, and the air in the Fighting Pavilion seemed to become scorching hot because of the confrontation.

In this tense and almost frozen atmosphere, Qiu Yutong's eyes suddenly became unusually firm.

She took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in her body seemed to be awakened by some force. The tip of the sword trembled slightly, and then turned into a dazzling stream of light, going straight to Zhou Yiqiao's heart.

This sword was her most unique skill. Although Zhou Yiqiao did not know its name, he could feel that the power of this sword was extraordinary.

He was not at all panicked. The Netherworld Demon Sword seemed to have come to life in his hand. The sword shone brightly with black light, and collided violently with Qiu Yutong's sword light in mid-air, making a deafening roar.

In the blink of an eye, Zhou Yiqiao's spiritual power surged in his body. He closed his eyes and concentrated, merging himself with the Netherworld Demon Sword. Several sword intentions were slashed out in succession and then merged into one.

All the sword intent condensed into an inky black crack, which split Qiu Yutong's sword move into two. The remaining force did not decrease and went straight to Qiu Yutong's chest.

When Qiu Yutong saw this, her face changed drastically. She could clearly feel that Zhou Yiqiao had no intention of holding back and completely regarded her as a real opponent.

As soon as he thought of this, Qiu Yutong retreated violently, and at the same time, the long sword in his hand turned over. Thousands of sword lights flashed in an instant, weaving a large sword energy net in front of him, covering the inky black crack.

"boom!"

In an instant, soil and rocks collapsed, the earth shook, and the spiritual energy fluctuations in the Fighting Pavilion reached its peak. The walls that had been reinforced by the secret technique actually developed countless cracks!

Fortunately, the Fighting Pavilion was located in the Brass Palace and was protected by the Brass Palace's solid formation. Although it had reached the brink of collapse, it had never collapsed because of the constraints of the Brass Palace.

However, Qiu Yutong was not able to escape as easily as the Fighting Pavilion.

Although she managed to block Zhou Yiqiao's fatal blow with her amazing reaction speed and superb swordsmanship, the impact still made her stagger and blood flow from the corner of her mouth. It was obvious that she had suffered serious internal injuries.

"Junior Brother Zhou, you really didn't let me down!"

Qiu Yutong was still breathing heavily, but her tone was full of appreciation.

Zhou Yiqiao put away the Netherworld Demon Sword, smiled slightly, and said.

"Thank you, Senior Sister Qiu. If it weren't for your cultivation over the past six months, I wouldn't be able to achieve what I have today."

The two men smiled at each other, the smoke of the battle gradually dissipated, and a moment of tranquility returned to the Fighting Pavilion.

Qiu Yutong raised her hand and gently wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth. After mobilizing her spiritual power to calm her surging blood and qi, she asked with a smile.

"Junior brother, you have achieved success in your cultivation, and Senior Brother Xu has not returned yet. Have you thought about where to go next?"

Zhou Yiqiao pondered for a moment, then told Qiu Yutong bluntly.

"Senior Sister, I am very interested in the alchemy room in the Bronze Palace. Since Senior Brother Xu Hanchang has not returned to the villa yet, I plan to go over there and take a look."

When Qiu Yutong heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, but she was soon relieved.

After Qing Jimeng asked her to take care of Zhou Yiqiao, she inquired about Zhou Yiqiao's direct descendants. Naturally, she knew that Zhou Yiqiao not only had superb swordsmanship, but was also an excellent alchemy expert.

"It's a good thing that Junior Brother can make his own plans."

Qiu Yutong smiled slightly.

"There are many alchemy rooms in the Copper Palace. If you want to go, I suggest you go to the 'Purple Air Eastward Pavilion'."

"Purple Qi Eastward Pavilion?"

There was curiosity in Zhou Yiqiao's eyes.

Qiu Yutong nodded and continued to introduce.

"The Purple Air Comes East Pavilion is the best alchemy room in the Bronze Palace. It not only has the largest variety of spiritual plants and herbs, but also contains many rare alchemy books and recipes."

"The alchemy furnace in this pavilion is also the best in the entire Brass Palace. Legend has it that it was left by an alchemy master in ancient times. For alchemists, it has unimaginable benefits."

Zhou Yiqiao was excited after hearing this. He was quite interested in alchemy. If he could retreat in the Ziqidonglai Pavilion for a period of time, it would undoubtedly be of great benefit to his alchemy skills.

"Senior Sister, can you take me to the Purple Qi Eastward Pavilion?"

Zhou Yiqiao looked at Qiu Yutong expectantly.

Qiu Yutong agreed readily.

"Of course, Junior Brother, follow me."

Having said that, Qiu Yutong led Zhou Yiqiao out of the Fighting Pavilion and headed towards the Purple Qi Eastward Coming Pavilion.

The Ziqidonglai Pavilion is located in the east of the Bronze Palace, far away from the Doufa Pavilion.

The two of them walked through the corridors of the Bronze Palace and met many disciples from Qinjian Villa along the way. When they saw Qiu Yutong, they all saluted respectfully.

After walking for a while, Zhou Yiqiao and Qiu Yutong arrived in front of Ziqidonglai Pavilion.

The door of Ziqidonglai Pavilion was closed tightly, and it was engraved with strange runes, emitting faint fluctuations of spiritual energy.

Qiu Yutong stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door. After a while, the door slowly opened, revealing the situation inside the pavilion.
