Chapter 260
"Hmph, you dare to disturb my retreat, you're looking for death!" The sword ghost snorted coldly, swung the sword in his hand, and hundreds of silver needles shot out instantly, shooting towards Ren Xiaoyao and others.
Ren Xiaoyao saw this and immediately shouted, "Everyone, hide in the sword intent!" After saying that, he flashed and turned into a puff of green smoke, hiding in the huge black sword. The disciples followed suit and hid in their own sword intents.
When the sword ghost saw this, his face changed and he said angrily: "You bunch of ants, how dare you tease me!" After saying that, he swung the sword in his hand, and hundreds of silver needles shot out again, shooting towards Ren Xiaoyao and others.
However, this time, Ren Xiaoyao and the others did not suffer any harm because they had already hidden in the sword intent, and the sword ghost's attack was no longer a threat to them.
In this way, Ren Xiaoyao and the others, under the protection of the sword intent, fought a fierce battle with the sword ghost. Although their cultivation was far inferior to that of the sword ghost, they relied on their understanding of the sword intent to escape danger time and time again, and gradually suppressed the sword ghost.
Finally, under the leadership of Ren Xiaoyao, they successfully defeated the sword ghost and rescued the trapped disciples. Because of this experience, they gained a deeper understanding of the sword and became a generation of martial arts masters.
"Master, what should we do to defeat it?" a clever disciple asked first.
"First, we have to find the sword ghost's true form, the flying sword." Ren Xiaoyao said mysteriously, "Second, we have to find it in a place where it can't perform swordsmanship, that is, the center of the island."
"But Master, how can we find that sword?" another disciple asked doubtfully.
"This is easy. I already have some clues. All we need to do is follow my instructions and find the sword." Ren Xiaoyao said confidently.
"Then Master, when are we going to set off?" the disciples asked one after another.
"Let's go now. Remember, be careful and don't get discovered by that sword ghost." Ren Xiaoyao said seriously.
So, under the leadership of Ren Xiaoyao, a group of people quietly left their residence and headed towards the center of the island.
Along the way, they were very careful, fearing that they would be discovered by the sword ghost. After a difficult journey, they finally arrived at the center of the island.
"This is it. Everyone be careful. The Sword Ghost may be nearby." Ren Xiaoyao said in a low voice.
At this time, a disciple suddenly discovered something and pointed to a cave in the distance and said, "Master, there seems to be some movement in there."
"Everyone be careful and follow me." After Ren Xiaoyao said this, he took the lead and walked towards the cave.
Inside the cave, they found a sword stuck in a stone, and around the sword, a mysterious aura was flowing.
"That's it. Everyone, be careful and don't be fooled by the aura of the sword." Ren Xiaoyao reminded in a low voice.
At this moment, a sneer suddenly came from the cave entrance, and an old voice came: "You are really looking for death. You dare to disturb my sword ghost's meditation."
"Sword Ghost, we just want to learn swordsmanship from you. We have no ill intentions." Ren Xiaoyao said frankly.
"Hmph, you humans are all hypocritical. You just want to use me and then kick me away." The Sword Ghost sneered.
"Sword Ghost, we are not that kind of people. We really want to learn swordsmanship from you. Please believe us." Ren Xiaoyao said sincerely.
"Hmph, you humans are all liars. I won't believe you." The Sword Ghost sneered.
"Sword Ghost, we are really sincere. Please give us a chance to prove ourselves." Ren Xiaoyao pleaded again.
"Okay, since you insist so much, let me test you." Sword Ghost finally agreed.
So, under the leadership of Ren Xiaoyao, they began their arduous training, moving step by step towards the peak of swordsmanship.
Day after day, year after year, their swordsmanship gradually improved and finally made a qualitative leap.
"Sword Ghost, we have now mastered the essence of swordsmanship. Can you teach us more advanced swordsmanship?" Ren Xiaoyao asked.
"Hmph, your human talent is indeed extraordinary. Since you have already mastered the essence of swordsmanship, let me teach you more advanced swordsmanship." The Sword Ghost said approvingly.
In this way, under the guidance of Sword Ghost, they reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship step by step and became a generation of swordsmanship masters.
Behind them are countless hardships and sweat. It is their unremitting efforts that have brought them today's achievements.
Their story spread throughout the world and became a legend passed down by later generations.
"Master, I am extremely curious."
"Yes, Master, please tell us quickly."
"Have you heard of the psychic sword ghost?"
Ren Xiaoyao asked with a smile, his eyes scanning everyone's faces one by one.
"Never heard of it." Everyone shook their heads.
Ren Xiaoyao continued to ask: "Have any of you heard of this sword ghost?"
"I've heard of it." Another disciple replied.
Ren Xiaoyao nodded slightly and said, "Well, tell me the characteristics of this sword ghost, and I will take you to see this legendary monster."
"This legendary monster? What is the legendary monster?" another disciple asked puzzledly.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and explained: "It's just a psychic sword ghost."
"What the hell is a sword ghost?"
"The Sword Ghost is a kind of demon beast that does not belong to our secular world. It is a natural demon beast that can communicate with spirits and possesses powers different from other demon beasts. The Sword Ghost can use the sword to attack the enemy, but it can also use the sword to protect its master." Ren Xiaoyao said.
"Master, do you think this psychic sword ghost is powerful?" the disciple asked curiously.
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head and said calmly: "I don't know. But the sword ghost has many weaknesses. The swordsmanship of the psychic sword ghost is a move in the psychic sword technique, which is powerful.
"That's right, Master. I have been learning the art of alchemy since I was a child, and I have never heard of a demon beast that can communicate with spirits."
"..."
Ren Xiaoyao saw that all the disciples were looking at him curiously, so he smiled and explained: "Tongling is a very special kind of monster. They have innate psychic abilities and can communicate with the power of heaven and earth."
"There are three continents in our world of cultivation. Two of them are inhabited by humans. The other one is inhabited by monsters and beasts. Monsters also have cultivation abilities." Ren Xiaoyao patiently explained to everyone.
"The humans and monsters on these three continents are competitors and fight each other. Sometimes, wars break out between humans and monsters. However, these wars are all based on rules. Humans and monsters are not allowed to enter each other's territory, otherwise they will be defeated or killed by the other side. The number of humans and monsters is much greater than the number of monsters."
"What about the monsters? Can't they fly? Why don't they dare to attack human territory?" asked a disciple.
"Demon beasts can fly. However, the distance they fly does not determine everything. As long as they are human, they can fly. Monster beasts are just dependent on birds and beasts.
"Yes, Master, please stop teasing us!"
"Master, just tell us, we really want to know what kind of monster this sword ghost you mentioned is?" Everyone looked at Ren Xiaoyao expectantly, hoping that he could give them a reasonable answer.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at everyone, pondered for a moment, and said: "In fact, sword ghosts can be divided into good and bad. Some good sword ghosts can understand human nature. Some bad sword ghosts are bloodthirsty."
After hearing this, everyone nodded repeatedly to show their understanding.
"In fact, there are many good sword ghosts in our sect. They are much stronger than the sword ghosts." Ren Xiaoyao continued.
"Really? Then let's go pick a good sword ghost so that we can practice successfully sooner."
Ren Xiaoyao nodded with a smile and said, "Okay, since you have decided, let's set off together tomorrow to go to Blood Moon Mountain."
"Yes, Master!" Everyone bowed respectfully.
"You all go back and rest. We will set off early tomorrow morning." Ren Xiaoyao waved his hand and said.
Upon hearing this, everyone dispersed and went back to practice.
"Master, who are you going to take with you this time?" a young girl suddenly asked, her voice revealing excitement and anticipation.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled.
All the disciples looked excited and stared at Ren Xiaoyao with burning eyes, as if they were hungry wolves seeing a fresh lamb.
"Sword Ghost is a psychic monster. He can replenish the elements in his body by absorbing the essence of others. His cultivation will become stronger and stronger." Ren Xiaoyao continued to explain.
“Oh~ So that’s how it is. Isn’t the Sword Ghost’s training speed even more amazing?” a disciple exclaimed, looking eager to try.
"Yes, yes!" The other disciples also nodded quickly to show their agreement.
"So, in order to prevent the Sword Ghost from causing trouble, I plan to send you to Blood Moon Mountain for training. Blood Moon Mountain is full of dangers, but it also has all kinds of natural treasures. You can collect as much as you want and obtain your own cultivation resources." Ren Xiaoyao said with a smile.
"Wow, that Blood Moon Mountain is amazing. I've always wanted to go there for training."
"Master, I am willing to accompany you to the Blood Moon Mountain for training. Please accept me!"
"Master, I want to go too!"
"Master, please take me with you!"
A group of people scrambled to speak.
Ren Xiaoyao was suddenly at a loss for words, and waved his hands, saying with a smile, "Okay, no need to argue. This time I only plan to take one person to Blood Moon Mountain for training, and even if you go with us, you won't be able to help much.
"This is the first time I've heard of this, too! Master, can you please tell me more about it?"
"Yes, Master, we are really interested in monsters. We have always wanted to find a chance to see with our own eyes what kind of monster has intelligence and understands human language." Everyone asked Ren Xiaoyao at once, looking extremely anxious.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and continued to explain the characteristics of the monster to everyone.
All the disciples listened with great interest, without blinking an eye.
"By the way, Master, why did you suddenly think of taking us to find that psychic monster?" a disciple suddenly asked.
Ren Xiaoyao glanced at the disciple, and after a moment of silence, he slowly spoke and said, "This time I will lead you to the Blood Moon Mountain in order to help the psychic monster and obtain the psychic sword."
"What? The Spiritual Sword, Master, what kind of sword is that?"
"Yes, Master, please tell us."
Everyone stared at Ren Xiaoyao curiously.
Ren Xiaoyao took a deep breath and said, "The Spiritual Sword is a kind of sword energy condensed by the Spiritual Sword Ghost holding the Spiritual Sword. The Spiritual Sword was supposed to belong to humans, but later it was refined into a sword by the Spiritual Sword Ghost using various means.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at them with a smile and patiently explained: "The spiritual beast refers to the elite among the monsters. The spiritualist absorbs the essence and spirit of the monsters and eventually becomes a monster and the king of monsters."
"After the psychic absorbs the essence and soul of the monster, he can use the power of the soul, or use the power of the monster's soul to attack, or use the power of the monster's origin to fight the enemy."
"You should all understand this." Ren Xiaoyao looked at everyone with a smile, waiting for their answers.
