From dual spiritual roots to a sword master with all attributes

Fang Xiao's consciousness returned to his sea of ​​​​consciousness and soul, and he felt the pain of his soul being torn apart even more clearly.

He endured the pain and began to check the situation. The soul-nourishing gourd had returned to its bone-white color, but its surface was covered with cracks. There were several cracks on the gourd mouth that were about to straighten out, but if they went down a few more points, the entire gourd would probably split into several pieces on the spot.

The properties formed by the rare materials he had refined into the Soul-Nourishing Gourd had also lost their effects due to overdraft consumption and exhaustion of their foundations.

However, the soul-nourishing gourd is just an external object for protection. It doesn't matter if it is damaged or even destroyed. The real problem lies in his soul.

There were seven terrifying cracks on the surface of the dim soul, six of which were of varying depths but had not damaged the root. Only one crack pierced through the soul from front to back and had even damaged the origin. It was because of this that his soul almost collapsed on the spot. Even though he had passed the most dangerous stage, his soul was still trembling slightly.

Fang Xiao's heart was sinking at this moment. The origin of his soul was injured, and the impact was far-reaching. In addition to the varying degrees of impact on his comprehension and practice of martial arts in daily practice, it would also be a huge flaw when fighting against the enemy, and in the process of forming the pill, it might also affect the grade of the pill.

Although the injury to the origin of the soul is not incurable, any treasure that can have a restorative effect is extremely rare. Even the elixir that can heal the origin of the soul will not be of low quality.

At this moment Fang Xiao just felt that he had suffered a great loss. According to the information he learned from the Zhenkong Sword Spirit, the true transmission assessment should not be life-threatening, and the assessee's spiritual power and injuries would be restored after the assessment.

But the actual situation was that if he had been not careful at that time, he would have ended up with his soul destroyed, and after it was over, it only helped him to restore his spiritual power but did not heal his injuries.

"Could it be that the cave where the true teachings were tested was also destroyed in the war?"

This is the only explanation Fang Xiao could think of.

Thinking of this, he took out the Taibai sword pill in his dantian and placed it in his hand, looking at the three holes, some deep and some shallow. Although they could be repaired with a large amount of spiritual gold, his heart still ached.

Although this sword pill was not contaminated by anyone's breath, it was not made by hand after all. It may not have much impact in the early stage, but there will be some hindrance in the later stage, which will affect the growth of the sword pill. He originally planned to refine it again by hand, but it was damaged first. This is why he put learning the method of refining weapons and forging swords on the agenda.

In addition, the Taibai Sword Pill alone could not take care of the overall situation. He planned to refine the magic sword recorded in the Taibai Jingxiao Sword Classic. If he had two swords in his hands, he might not be so embarrassed this time.

After weighing the gains and losses of this time, the biggest pain point is the injury to the origin of the soul. There is no solution for the time being, and I can only take it one step at a time and think of a solution after leaving Taibai Sword Sect.

If he cannot enter the main hall later, or does not gain much after entering the main hall, then he will really lose both the wife and the army.

Fang Xiao planned to heal his physical injuries before leaving. Fortunately, no one knew about the Xuanjian Tower except him, so it was no problem for the True Transmission Assessment Cave to be occupied. The spiritual energy here was rich, and it was a good place to heal.

He practiced the Five Qi Yun Immortal Sutra to repair the injuries he had suffered. The body-refining exercises were more effective for injuries on the physical body. Combined with the healing pills, it wouldn't take long to recover from the injuries.

……

Within five days, Fang Xiao's external injuries were no longer serious, and the injury to his soul had not improved, but thank God it had not continued to worsen. However, his eyes were still dull, his face was pale, and he occasionally had a headache.

These days he also discovered that he was not as adept at practicing his skills as before. He no longer dared to practice the Shangdan Ningyuan Lianshen Method before his soul injury recovered. His mental strength had also declined to a certain extent. He could not practice the Wuqi Yunxian Sutra and Taibai Jingxiao Sword Classic at the same time. His progress in practice was bound to be greatly reduced.

There was no point in staying here any longer, so he decided to leave this cave after selecting the true skills and go back to the sword tomb to take away the resources.

After making the decision, he stood up, stretched his muscles that had not been exercised for a long time, and walked towards the jade slips.

Dozens of jade slips of various colors and shapes were hanging in the air. Fang Xiao stepped forward and took the purple jade slip in front. He had long wanted to see the wonders of the ancient No. 1 sword sect's skills. He probed his spiritual sense into it, but to his surprise, the jade slip was blank.

Fang Xiao was stunned, then quickly picked up other jade slips to check. Fortunately, he did not find nothing. On average, one out of every seven or eight jade slips would record a technique. When he checked all the jade slips, he found that only eight of the dozens of jade slips recorded some techniques. With so many blank jade slips, he suspected that there might really be something wrong with the cave.

Fang Xiao sat cross-legged on the ground with eight jade slips of different colors placed in front of him. He originally thought that the true techniques were all Qi-training techniques, but the fact was not so. These jade slips contained not only techniques, sword formulas, secret techniques, but even sword formations. It could be said that they were varied, but there were more techniques among them.

Although he wanted them all, except for the names and introductions of the techniques and skills in the jade slip, the rest of the content was covered up. He could only consider carefully and choose three out of eight.

Fang Xiao thought about it and decided to use the elimination method to make his choice.

First of all, he has already practiced the Taibai Jingxiao Sword Canon. No matter how magical these three cultivation techniques sound, it is impossible for him to practice them exclusively, so they can be ruled out first.

Secondly, there are two sword techniques. Logically speaking, he has the Taibai Jingxiao Sword Canon and the Taibai Sword Technique, so he is not short of sword techniques. These two sword techniques should be excluded together. However, there is a rare divine sword technique among them - the Chi Nian Sword Technique, which transforms thoughts into swords and the sword moves with thoughts. This is a sword technique that relies on sword intent to practice, and it can attack the enemy's mind between thoughts. The power depends entirely on the strength of the practitioner's sword intent. There is no doubt that his sword intent is strong, and it is still increasing day by day. It can be said that it is a sword technique that suits him very well, so he decided to keep it.

In this way, Fang Xiao only needed to choose two from the remaining three jade slips and put them in the first place. He pushed one of the jade slips into the list of exclusion without any hesitation, because this jade slip recorded a secret method to enhance the spiritual power of those with weak spiritual power. This secret method was simply redundant for it and it was undoubtedly excluded.

Fang Xiao waved his sleeves, and five jade slips flew back to their original places, leaving three jade slips in his hand, two purple and one green. They were the divine sword technique - Chi Nian Sword Technique, the sword refining secret method - Xijian Technique, and the sword formation - Zhanxu Sword Formation.
