After traveling through the book, I conquered the male protagonist Long Aotian!

"Qingze, where are we going?"

Chu Lingxiao looked curiously at Gu Qingze who was flying on a sword in front of him.

"The sword contest is about to start. How can we participate without a suitable sword? So I want to take Ling Xiao to the sword pond to choose one."

Gu Qingze explained with a smile.

In the original novel, it was Ye Qiu Shuang who took the male protagonist to the Sword Pond, and she took him there as soon as she accepted him. Logically speaking, since Ye Qiu Shuang took himself to the Sword Pond, there was no reason for her not to take Ling Xiao with her. After all, Ye Qiu Shuang also said that all the disciples of the sword cultivator have a chance to go to the Sword Pond to choose a suitable sword.

But for some reason, the sword-fighting competition was about to begin, but Ye Qiu Shuang was nowhere to be seen, so Ling Xiao still did not have the ancient divine sword that he was destined to possess.

To be honest, although this place has different deviations from the original novel, Gu Qingze can't tell whether it is good or bad.

Gu Qingze originally wanted to take a leave from training tomorrow and go with Ling Xiao, but since he had time today, it would be better to resolve it early and feel at ease as soon as possible.

Relying on his memory of the last time Ye Qiu Shuang brought him to the sword pool, he successfully found the route.

“Qingze…”

This was Chu Lingxiao's first time here. He was in an unfamiliar environment, surrounded by swords stuck in the ground...

He subconsciously looked at the person in front of him and called Gu Qingze's name in a low voice.

"what happened?"

Gu Qingze looked at him puzzledly.

Then he remembered that he had not yet explained to him the rules for choosing a sword in the sword pool, so he spoke.

"This is the sword pool. Every disciple who practices sword cultivation can come in and choose a sword. However, once you have chosen a sword and drawn it, you cannot regret it. So Ling Xiao must consider it carefully."

Gu Qingze instructed carefully.

"Then Qingze can help me choose?"

Chu Lingxiao nodded, indicating that he knew what to do, but before leaving, he still tugged at the corner of his clothes and asked.

"I'm sorry, I've already chosen once, and my exclusive token has also been marked, so I can only stand at the outermost edge and can't accompany you to the deeper part."

Gu Qingze shook his head apologetically. He knew that Ling Xiao wanted him to witness the process of possessing the sword with him, but he really couldn't break the rules.

Just now, when he wanted to take a few steps inside, he felt an invisible pressure that made it difficult for him to move. Only then did he understand why his master had to wait at the outermost edge when he was choosing the sword. Although it had something to do with her personality, it was also due to the restrictions of the formation in the sword pool.

After getting the answer, Chu Lingxiao nodded and walked into the depths of the sword pool alone.

Gu Qingze looked at his departing back, and couldn't help but think of something and sighed deeply.

So fast...

Ling Xiao's cultivation level is now the same as his own. He started from the initial stage of Qi training and then reached the initial stage of Golden Core in less than four years...

As for myself, or the original owner, I basically practiced hard every day, and I never lost any of my cultivation along the way. As a result, it took me twelve years to reach the early stage of Golden Core, even though I had a single top-grade spiritual root, thanks to the effect of the Holy Spirit Fruit.

When Ling Xiao comes out of the sword pond, he will have one of the cheats of the male protagonist in the original novel, and his cultivation speed will be faster... Will he be far ahead of me in cultivation after that...
