Seeing Ye Qingfeng’s strange behavior, Yang Guo dared not disturb him in the slightest, and quickly whispered to the Condor, and together they went down the platform.

Ye Qingfeng stood in front of the stone platform, motionless, with three flowers gathering at the top of his head, and a fierce battle in his mind. Originally, with his current cultivation, even if he cultivated the three great Dantian, upper, middle, and lower, it would still take some accumulation to reach the level of three flowers gathering at the top. However, at this time, stimulated by Dugu’s sword intent, he had no retreat, so he could only risk condensing the three flowers.

And the battle in his mind was not only a clash of two sword intents, but also an clash between him and Dugu Qiubai~.

In this clash across time and space, Dugu Qiubai was indomitable, and Ye Qingfeng was infinitely circular.

If Dugu Qiubai’s sword dao was the ultimate in offense, then Ye Qingfeng’s sword dao was the ultimate in defense. One offense and one defense, one straight and one circular, one was a straight line and the other was a circle, it was simply impossible to distinguish which was superior or inferior.

However, compared to Dugu Qiubai, Ye Qingfeng had an advantage.

That is, his sword intent originated from himself, while Dugu Qiubai’s sword intent remained on the stone wall. Therefore, as the two resisted each other, Dugu Qiubai’s sword intent would eventually be worn away until it finally dissipated completely.

After thousands of clashes between the two, the situation finally drew to a close.

Ye Qingfeng’s sword intent still soared into the sky, but Dugu Qiubai’s sword intent had already dimmed.

As Dugu Qiubai’s sword intent weakened, the swordsman’s figure also gradually became transparent.

At this moment, the two had stopped fighting. Looking at the gradually transparent figure opposite him, Ye Qingfeng’s heart was calm. Because he understood that although the other party could not defeat him, he also could not defeat the other party.

Just when Ye Qingfeng thought the ending was about to conclude, the swordsman suddenly let out a long laugh towards the sky, and then slashed through the void with a single sword, disappearing instantly. Seeing this scene, Ye Qingfeng was greatly shaken, and he also came back to his senses.

“So that’s how it is…”

Recalling the last scene that had just happened in his mind, Ye Qingfeng was completely immersed in immense shock.

Amidst his shock, he muttered to himself, “What a Sword Demon, what a Dugu Qiubai. So you didn’t die, but took that step, breaking through the void with your sword and leaving. It seems that the pile of rocks in the cave below should just be your tomb of clothes and hats. I just knew it, how could a person as amazingly talented as you so easily become a withered bone in a tomb?”

After muttering to himself, Ye Qingfeng looked at the four stone boxes on the stone platform and said, “The five realms of swordsmanship you left behind, summarized as ‘Sword of No Intent’, ‘Soft Sword of No Constancy’, ‘Heavy Sword of No Edge’, ‘Wooden Sword of No Equal’, and ‘Swordless, Formless’. There should have been five stone boxes in the end, but you only left four stone boxes, and the fourth stone box only vaguely mentioned the realm of ‘Swordless’. From this point, I should have guessed long ago that you left in too much of a hurry and didn’t anticipate it yourself, which is why there isn’t a fifth stone box.”

Subsequently, Ye Qingfeng said no more, and directly swept his sleeve, opening the first and third stone boxes.

Inside the first stone box was a glowing blue treasured sword, whose quality seemed no less than the True Martial Sword.

Inside the third stone box was a heavy, black, blunt sword, which was the Heavy Iron Sword.

Ye Qingfeng then waved his robe sleeve, rolled up the two treasured swords, and floated down.

Back at the thatched hut, he asked everyone and only then realized that he had been on the platform for three days and three nights.

Seeing the two swords in his hand, Yang Guo asked, “Master, you brought down Senior Dugu’s swords.” Then he looked curious and said, “Huh, weren’t there four swords, why did you only bring down two?”

Ye Qingfeng said, “You brat, you didn’t even look at the words on the stone box. The Purple Soft Sword has already been discarded in the deep valley, so the second stone box is naturally empty. Grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all be swords, so the fourth stone box is a wooden sword.”

Yang Guo suddenly realized: “So that’s what it means. This Senior Dugu is truly profound and unfathomable.”

Ye Qingfeng placed the two swords on the stone table and continued, “Senior Dugu buried his swords here, and we can be considered fated. Taking them causes no harm. Take a look at these two swords, choose one for yourself as a memento.”

“Alright.”

Yang Guo responded, then picked up the Qingfeng treasured sword and pulled it out of its scabbard with a clang. Seeing the sword’s blade flashing with a green light, like a clear, shimmering autumn water, he couldn’t help but praise, “Good sword, truly a good sword.”

Then, he reached out to grab the Heavy Iron Sword. Because he hadn’t estimated the weight of the sword well in his mind, he almost stumbled and fell. Fortunately, he hadn’t wasted his years of learning and managed to react in time. Standing firm, he couldn’t help but say with a look of disdain, “What kind of sword is this? Not only is it bladeless and edgeless, but it’s also so heavy. Who can wield it?”

Ye Qingfeng said, “When you comprehend the true essence of swordsmanship, you won’t dislike its weight anymore.”

Yang Guo said, “Forget it, I can’t use it anyway right now, so I’ll choose this light sword.”

·····Please give flowers···

Ye Qingfeng smiled, “That’s up to you, as long as you don’t regret it later.” Putting away the Heavy Iron Sword, he then said to the two girls, “Wushuang, Lingbo, since you two have become my maidservants, you are family. I naturally won’t favor one over the other. Next, I will teach you the martial arts from the Nine Yin Manual. You must study diligently.”

“What? The Nine Yin Manual?”

The two girls were immediately shocked upon hearing this.

Although they were young, having followed Li Mochou in the martial world for many years, they had naturally heard of the Nine Yin Manual’s prestige. Li Mochou had fought with Xiaolongnü for years over a copy of the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra, but had never achieved her wish. And now, Ye Qingfeng was actually saying he would teach them the Nine Yin Manual, whose prestige was even greater than the Jade Maiden Heart Sutra. How could they not be shocked?

……………..

Ye Qingfeng nodded and said, “That’s right, it’s the Nine Yin Manual.” Then he continued, “Although this miraculous martial arts book is known as the general of martial arts in the world, it’s not much to me, and you don’t need to be surprised.”

The two girls both knew that Ye Qingfeng’s cultivation was profound and that he possessed god-like abilities, so they naturally had no doubts whatsoever. At the same time, they also knew that they had stumbled upon an incredibly good fortune, obtaining an opportunity that many people dreamed of but could not achieve. Immediately, the two girls did not hesitate, directly knelt down, and said in unison, “Thank you, Master. Lu Wushuang (Hong Lingbo) pledges to serve Master faithfully until death in this life.”

Ye Qingfeng raised his hand and gently lifted them, saying, “Alright, alright, get up. As long as you have the intention, that’s enough.”

Seeing that the two girls could learn the Nine Yin Manual, Yang Guo couldn’t help but feel a little sour, and immediately said, “Master, I also want to learn the Nine Yin Manual.”

Ye Qingfeng immediately rolled his eyes at him, and scolded with a smile, “You brat, stop chattering. The Taixuan Asking Dao Chapter that your master taught you is a grand synthesis of the Nine Yin and Nine Yang, and it also incorporates the profound mysteries of the Tai Chi Divine Art. Its power is even greater than the Nine Yin Manual. You haven’t even mastered the Taixuan Asking Dao Chapter, and you still want to learn other martial arts. That’s simply biting off more than you can chew, and in the end, you’ll only be mediocre at everything.”

Hearing this, Yang Guo immediately smiled brightly and said, “So that’s how it is. It seems Master, you still love me the most.”

“Get lost!”

Ye Qingfeng cursed again, then said, “After I pass down the true scripture, I will go into seclusion to create a sword technique. It will take at least three to five months, and at most a year. The three of you must cultivate well, as I will inspect you when I come out of seclusion.”

The three responded in unison, “Yes, Master (Owner).”
