Chapter 253
During the journey, they encountered various difficulties and challenges. Sometimes it was dangerous beasts, sometimes it was ferocious enemies, and sometimes it was a difficult environment. However, they never gave up and insisted on moving forward.
After months of hard work, they finally found the whereabouts of the psychic sword, which was hidden in an ancient cave and exuded a mysterious light.
The moment everyone saw the Spiritual Sword, they were all shocked and awed. They knew that this was the treasure they had been looking for for a long time and the key to realizing their dreams.
"Master, we finally found the spiritual sword!" a disciple said excitedly.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Not bad! This is our first successful step. Now, we need to combine the Spiritual Sword and the Xuanyang Sword."
Everyone was excited and nervous when they heard this. They knew that this was their most important task and also their biggest challenge.
"Master, how can we combine them?" a disciple asked doubtfully.
Ren Xiaoyao pondered for a moment and slowly said, "The combination requires a special ritual and technique. I will personally guide you to complete this task."
Everyone listened attentively, and a strong determination surged in their hearts. They knew that only by joining forces could they gain true power and achievement.
"Master, we will definitely work hard to complete the task!" a disciple said solemnly.
Ren Xiaoyao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay! I believe in your abilities. Remember, the process of combining the two may encounter some difficulties and dangers, but as long as we unite as one and support each other, we will surely succeed."
Everyone responded in unison: "Yes! Master!"
Then, Ren Xiaoyao led all the disciples to start the ceremony of the union of the two. According to Ren Xiaoyao's instructions, they took special postures and positions, ready to welcome the arrival of the union of the two.
During the process of combining the two, everyone felt a strong energy surge into their bodies. Their bodies became extremely strong and flexible, as if they could overcome all difficulties and enemies.
Finally, the ceremony of joining the two was successfully concluded, and everyone felt refreshed, full of immense strength and confidence.
"Master, we succeeded!" a disciple said excitedly.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Not bad! You have done a great job. Now, you have become true martial arts masters."
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the doubts on the faces of these disciples, shook his head slightly, and said: "The reason why Blood Moon Mountain is dangerous is mainly because there is a person called Blood Moon Sword Master in the Blood Moon Mountain. This person holds a spiritual sword and is very powerful. We cannot deal with him."
When the disciples heard the words "Blood Moon Sword Master", they were all terrified. They all came up from below, and they had all heard of the legendary Spiritual Sword Master. It was said that the Spiritual Sword Master was extremely powerful, holding the Xuanyang Spiritual Sword, and his lethality was comparable to that of a first-class magic weapon!
“But, isn’t the Spiritual Sword Master in Blood Moon Mountain? How come he appears in Green Bamboo Mountain?” one of the women asked puzzledly.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said, "The Blood Moon Sword Master has left Blood Moon Mountain for tens of thousands of years. Moreover, his whereabouts are mysterious and unpredictable. Once he leaves Blood Moon Mountain, no one can find him. However, the Blood Moon Sword Master left a mark on a jade tablet in Qingzhu Mountain. As long as you use this mark, you can feel his location."
"So that's how it is. No wonder I always felt like someone was staring at me these past few days. So that's how it is." The woman said with sudden enlightenment.
"Senior Sister, does this mean we can leave Qingzhu Mountain this time?" the male disciple at the side asked excitedly.
"Then let's go find the Blood Moon Sword Master. Once we find him, we can leave Qingzhu Mountain!" a male disciple said impatiently.
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head and said, "Don't worry. It's not that easy to find the Blood Moon Sword Master. Moreover, even if we find him, we may not be able to defeat him."
"Then what should we do?" The disciple showed a trace of fear, "Are we only able to stay in Qingzhu Mountain?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled and said, "Don't worry, since I brought you here, I naturally have my own plans. But, do you still remember the spiritual sword of the Blood Moon Sword Master?"
Everyone nodded, all a little curious, wondering what Ren Xiaoyao was going to say.
Ren Xiaoyao went on to say, "Back then, the Blood Moon Sword Master once fought a tie with the head of Qingyang Sect, but the head of Qingyang Sect still accepted his spiritual sword."
"You mean..." a disciple said in shock.
Ren Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Yes, the spiritual sword is in my hand now."
When these words came out, everyone was shocked. They naturally understood the meaning of Ren Xiaoyao's words.
Ren Xiaoyao said mysteriously: "So, as long as we can get this spiritual sword and find the mark left by Blood Moon Sword Master, we will have a chance to find him."
Everyone was shocked. It turned out that all this was in Ren Xiaoyao's plan. Although this plan was a bit risky, it was undoubtedly the best choice for them.
So, under the leadership of Ren Xiaoyao, the group headed towards the depths of Qingzhu Mountain. They all knew that this mission was not only dangerous, but also required sufficient wisdom and courage. But they did not retreat, because they knew that this was the only way to leave this damn place.
As they advanced, they discovered some traces left by the Blood Moon Sword Master. Although these traces had become very faint, experienced warriors like them could still find some clues from them.
They followed these traces and soon came to a cave. At the entrance of the cave was a huge stone with a few large characters engraved on it: "The Remains of the Blood Moon Sword Master".
Seeing these words, everyone's hearts were shocked. They knew that this cave was the remains left by Blood Moon Sword Master. But what kind of dangers would be in this remains? They didn't know.
Ren Xiaoyao walked in without hesitation. The other disciples had no choice but to follow him. After they entered the cave, they found it was pitch black and they couldn't see anything clearly.
Ren Xiaoyao took out a fire starter and illuminated the surroundings. They immediately saw some sword marks and sword intentions left by the Blood Moon Sword Master. These sword marks and sword intentions were so powerful that they made them feel chilled.
They continued to go deeper into the cave, gradually going deeper into the belly of the mountain. The space inside became wider and wider. Gradually, they saw some things that Blood Moon Sword Master left behind. There were swords he used, clothes, and some of his experiences. These experiences were recorded with special symbols. Although these symbols were very old, each one left a deep impression on people.
As they walked and looked, they gradually went deeper into the center of the cave. The space inside was spacious enough to accommodate hundreds of people. In the center, there was a blood-red long sword inserted there. That was the legendary spiritual sword!
Ren Xiaoyao walked to the Spiritual Sword, stared at it, took a deep breath and said, "Master Qingyang once said that this Spiritual Sword is an extraordinary magic weapon..."
Ren Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said, "Leaving Qingzhu Mountain? Do you think Blood Moon Sword Master is so easy to deal with? His strength is far beyond our imagination."
The disciples all showed worried expressions. Although they had heard of Blood Moon Sword Master, they did not know how powerful he truly was.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the expressions of his disciples and continued, "The strength of Blood Moon Sword Master is incomparable to ordinary warriors like us. His spiritual sword is an ancient artifact with infinite power. Once he attacks, I'm afraid we won't be able to resist even a single move."
The disciples were terrified after hearing this. They began to regret not practicing well in the past. Now facing such a powerful enemy, they felt extremely powerless and afraid.
Ren Xiaoyao saw that his disciples were in low spirits, so he patted their shoulders gently and said, "However, we are not without a chance. As long as we can find the weakness of Blood Moon Sword Master, there may be a glimmer of hope."
When the disciples heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in their eyes, and they asked one after another: "Master, do you know what the weakness of Blood Moon Sword Master is?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "The weakness of Blood Moon Sword Master is his swordsmanship. Although his swordsmanship is extremely powerful, it has a fatal flaw. As long as we can find this flaw, we will have a chance to defeat him."
The disciples' eyes lit up after hearing this, and they began to think about how to find the flaws in Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship.
One of the disciples suddenly spoke up: "Master, I heard that the Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship has a special move called 'Blood Moon Reincarnation'. It is said that once it is performed, it can trap the opponent in an endless reincarnation. Is this a flaw in his swordsmanship?"
Ren Xiaoyao nodded and said, "Yes, 'Blood Moon Reincarnation' is indeed one of the Blood Moon Sword Master's unique skills. However, this is not a flaw in his swordsmanship. Although 'Blood Moon Reincarnation' is powerful, it also has a fatal weakness. As long as we can find this weakness, we will have a chance to crack his swordsmanship."
The disciples became even more excited after hearing this, and they began to actively think about how to find the flaws in Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship.
Another disciple suddenly spoke up: "Master, I heard that the Blood Moon Sword Master has a unique skill called 'Blood Moon Slash'. It is said that once it is performed, it can cut the opponent in two. Is this a flaw in his swordsmanship?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled slightly and said, "Yes, 'Blood Moon Slash' is also one of the Blood Moon Sword Master's special moves. However, this is not a flaw in his swordsmanship. Although 'Blood Moon Slash' is incredibly powerful, it also has a fatal weakness. As long as we can find this weakness, we will have a chance to break his swordsmanship."
The disciples became even more excited after hearing this, and they began to try hard to find flaws in Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship.
Just as the disciples were thinking, Ren Xiaoyao suddenly said, "In fact, the flaw in Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship is not in his unique skills. The flaw in his swordsmanship is in his heart. As long as we can touch his heart and make him fall into inner struggle and pain, his swordsmanship will lose its power."
The disciples were stunned. They had not expected that the flaw in Blood Moon Sword Master's swordsmanship was so strange.
One of the disciples asked hesitantly: "Master, how can we touch the heart of Blood Moon Sword Master?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled faintly and said, "This requires us to use the power of our hearts to feel his inner world. Only when we can resonate with him can we touch his heart."
The disciples suddenly understood and began to work hard to cultivate their spiritual power, hoping to resonate with Blood Moon Sword Master.
After a period of training, the disciples' spiritual power gradually increased, and they began to try to resonate with the Blood Moon Sword Master.
However, when they tried to touch the heart of Blood Moon Sword Master, they found that their power could not penetrate his mental barrier.
The disciples felt extremely frustrated and disappointed, and they began to doubt whether they could really defeat Blood Moon Sword Master.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the expressions of his disciples, smiled faintly, and said: "Don't be discouraged, this is just a temporary difficulty. As long as we persist and believe in our own strength, we will definitely be able to touch his heart."
After hearing Master’s words, the disciples regained their spirits and decided to continue working hard to cultivate the power of their minds.
After a period of hard work, the disciples' spiritual power finally reached a new height. They tried again to resonate with the Blood Moon Sword Master.
This time, they succeeded in touching the heart of Blood Moon Sword Master and felt his inner pain and struggle.
