For two months, he performed the sword-washing technique on the Taibai Sword Pill once a day. Although he did not build a sword-washing pool to assist, with the Qingyu Ding, its effect of refining magical instruments and treasures could barely replace the cleansing function of the sword-washing pool.

During this process, he invested a large amount of spiritual gold and flying swords. In short, Taibai Sword Pill accepted all of them and devoured them all to make up for its own damage.

Now the Taibai sword pill seems to have been washed clean of all impurities, it is shining with silver light, and is naturally round, without any sign of damage from before.

Thanks to the refinement during this period, its foundation has become more profound and the Taibai refined gold it contains has doubled.

If he had not been worried that the sword ball would be difficult to use after being upgraded to a magic weapon, he would have started engraving the Earthly Evil Restriction long ago.

Moreover, before engraving the Earthly Evil Restriction, he still needs to refine the Taibai Sword Pill again. The refinement during this period was only a preliminary attempt, and many materials have not yet been collected.

The real purpose is to learn the method of refining weapons, and it is also a preparation for the subsequent refining of another magic sword.

During this period, in addition to comprehending the Chi Nian Sword Art and the Zhan Xu Sword Formation, he also systematically learned the methods of refining weapons and forging swords that he had collected.

After observing and studying many finished flying swords, he began to try to refine his own flying sword half a month ago.

However, his talent for refining equipment was just mediocre, and an ordinary cultivator might have given up on this path long ago.

But he is different from others. He does not have outstanding talent, so he can just use spiritual materials to accumulate. Anyway, he has no shortage of spiritual materials.

Even if there are not enough spiritual materials, there are still a large number of flying swords that can be used to extract them.

He gave up other magical weapons and focused on refining the flying sword.

After dozens of scraps, his casting experience gradually accumulated.

By constantly summing up his experience and making up for the deficiencies in the refining process, he finally succeeded in refining his first flying sword.

Even though this was only a low-grade flying sword, there was no doubt that he had successfully taken the first step.

Afterwards, the process of refining low-grade flying swords was as smooth as opening a river gate. More than twenty swords were successfully refined, and the success rate increased to about 50%.

He had a hunch that if he continued to study for a while, he would be able to successfully refine a mid-grade flying sword.

However, he had been in the cave for two full months.

Now that his cultivation has achieved a breakthrough, his soul injury is not a serious problem for the time being, and the sword pill has also been repaired.

Many matters need to be put aside for the time being. The most urgent task is to set off as soon as possible and complete the exploration of Taibai Main Hall.

By the time the exploration is over, it won’t be so urgent.

At that time, whether to choose to leave Taibai directly or stay and continue looking for opportunities can be decided based on the specific situation.

Inside the cave, Fang Xiao extinguished the green jade cauldron and put it into the storage bag. Finding that there was nothing else, he immediately untied the formation and left with his sword.

……

In a sparse forest, six magic practitioners, dressed in different clothes, surrounded a sword practitioner.

They all used magical weapons and spells to fiercely attack the swordsman.

The swordsman dodged left and right, trying his best to parry, but it was obvious that he was unable to do so, and a look of despair gradually appeared in his eyes.

He was obviously in a desperate situation at this point, and his death was only a matter of time.

Seeing that he had no hope of escape, a feeling of ruthlessness quickly surged into his heart.

"Old Six, be careful."

Among the six people, a burly man suddenly shouted.

The swordsman suddenly jumped up, ignoring the several magical weapons attacking from all around, and stabbed the young man closest to him with his sword.

It happened so suddenly that the young practitioner panicked and accidentally tripped over a vine while stepping back.

Just when the swordsman was about to stab the young man, his body suddenly stopped moving forward, his eyes widened, and his eyes were full of unwillingness.

A snake chain slowly emerged from his heart, like a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue. After shaking a few times, it quickly withdrew and shrank into the shadows.

The sword cultivator's body fell weakly to the ground, without a sound.

A female cultivator dressed in revealing clothes and with a graceful figure walked out from the shadows enchantingly.

He slowly stopped in front of the young man with a playful expression on his face.

"Sixth brother, are you scared to the point of peeing your pants? If I hadn't intervened in time, you would have had to accompany him on the road. How are you going to thank me?"

"Huh, I was just careless."

The young man looked dissatisfied and retorted with his neck stiff.

At this time, the big man also came over and said, "Before I came here, I told you many times not to be greedy for merit. Why didn't you listen? Every sword cultivator is a life-threatening person. Have you forgotten how Lao Wu died?"

This person was obviously the leader among the six. After hearing this, everyone fell silent.

At this time, a middle-aged cultivator in a gray robe stood up and said, "Big brother is right. This time, the sword cultivator was only in the middle stage of foundation building, and he made a mistake. If he had encountered someone like the one who killed Old Five, this mistake would have killed everyone. It is indeed your fault, Old Six. Listen to Third Brother's advice and apologize to everyone."

There were originally seven of them, all of whom were Tribulation Cultivators, and their cultivation was in the middle to late stages of Foundation Establishment.

They spent a long time wandering between the East China Sea and the North Sea, and later became sworn brothers because of their similar interests.

After he stopped fighting alone, he began to rob some small sects and families.

During this period, he accidentally heard about Taibai's affairs, so he collected Taibai orders everywhere, wanting to come in to look for opportunities, and by the way, kill some lone monks.

However, just after entering the inner sect, they encountered a duo from the Shangqing Sect who were hiding their cultivation level.

In the end, they could only escape by sacrificing the formation and one of their own.

The young man was reluctant to do so, but he still stood up and admitted his mistake. He then walked to the body of the swordsman and said, "Bah, why don't you just accept your death? Why are you resisting?"

He then fumbled around on his body, took out several storage bags from his arms, trotted over to the big man, and handed them over like offering treasures.

"Brother, here it is."

"Ah."

The big man nodded with satisfaction and opened the storage bag to take a closer look.

"Not bad, but they are all sword cultivators' stuff. We'll divide them up after we get out and deal with them."

He ignored everyone else and simply put the storage bag on his waist.

Just when he was about to speak, he suddenly looked into the distance and saw the other five people, either quickly or slowly, also sensed that there were cultivators coming towards them.

"Someone is coming. Prepare according to the original plan. If it is a fake Dan cultivator, just escape from the battle and I will hold him back."

The big man spoke immediately.

Upon hearing this, several people did not hesitate and immediately started to act. It must be said that their execution ability is indeed very high.

A moment later, a sword light was seen coming from afar and soon arrived above the forest. The person who came was Fang Xiao.

It had been four or five days since he left the True Transmission Cave, but on the way to the main hall, he had not met any other cultivators.

When he was wondering about the whereabouts of the monks, he suddenly sensed signs of a fight ahead and decided to go and find out.

From a distance, I could see five monks in front of me, one running away and four chasing after him. The one running away was a girl who was no more than 28 years old. She looked panicked and had tears in her eyes, which made her look pitiful.

She walked towards Fang Xiao, "Brother Dao, please save me."

Fang Xiao stood there expressionlessly, staring at the girl.

When the girl came to a distance of ten feet from him, she felt the amazing sword intent emanating from Fang Xiao, and did not dare to get any closer, so she went around and walked behind him.

The sword intent on his body was the result of his initial practice of the Chi Nian Sword Technique.

At this stage, he is still unable to use sword intent to condense the sword to attack the enemy, but compared to before, he could let the sword intent run rampant and now he can control the sword intent skillfully.

He concentrated the sword intent around his body, which not only intimidated those who approached, but also had the ability to sense when the range was expanded.

Although it is not as accurate as spiritual perception, the advantage is that the sword intent can be released at will, which only consumes a little mental energy and no other consumption.
