When the old man Xuan Ji saw Zhang Ruochen's distressed expression, he thought he had suppressed too much, and was about to express words to comfort Zhang Ruochen.

Zhang Ruochen looked solemn and sighed: "The content of "Sword 1" is quite obscure, and his disciples are dull in qualifications and can only understand three out of ten."

Old Man Xuan Ji was stunned.

What?

Just read it once and you can understand three out of ten of the content?

You know, when Mr. Xuan Ji first watched "Sword Yi", she didn't even understand one-tenth of the content.

After understanding three out of ten, I still dare to say that I am stupid in my qualifications. Isn’t this a waste of money?

Old Man Xuan Ji looked at Zhang Ruochen carefully, a little disbelief, and asked, "Are you sure you can understand three out of ten?"

Zhang Ruochen said: "I just understood three out of ten of the content. Why is Master so surprised?"

Old Mr. Xuan Ji knew that Zhang Ruochen would not lie, and could only sigh in his heart that this little disciple's qualifications in swordsmanship were really amazingly high.

Old Man Xuan Ji stroked his white beard and smiled and said, "Being able to understand three-tenths of the content of "Sword One" means that your understanding of swordsmanship has passed some semi-saints."

"However, it only means that you are very qualified in kendo. Whether you can successfully practice "Sword 1" is still unknown."

"Understanding is just the first step. Being able to successfully practice "Sword One" can be considered an entry into sword cultivation."

It was not until this moment that Zhang Ruochen roughly understood that it was already quite amazing that he could understand three-tenths of the content of "Sword One".

However, what Master said makes sense. Even if you understand it completely, it is no big deal. Being able to practice successfully is considered a real ability.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Master said that many semi-saints cannot understand "Sword 1". Could it be that only by reaching the semi-saint level can one successfully practice "Sword 1"?"

Old Man Xuan Ji said: "It may not be possible. If your qualifications are high enough, you may also be able to successfully practice "Sword 1" in the Fish and Dragon Realm. When you reach the semi-saint realm, you can start practicing "Sword 2"."

Zhang Ruochen asked curiously: "There is "Sword II"?"

"certainly."

Old Man Xuan Ji nodded and said, "Sword 1 represents the 'self', and Sword 2 represents the 'yin and yang'. Above this, there are also 'Sword 3' and 'Sword 4'... Every time a sword score is practiced, the monk's understanding of swordsmanship will be elevated to a brand new world."

Zhang Ruochen continued to ask, "How to understand 'self'? How to understand 'yin and yang'?"

Old Man Xuan Ji shook his head and said, "You can't teach it, you can only understand it yourself. As a teacher, you can only tell you that only by successfully practicing "Sword 1" can you be considered a true sword cultivator."

"Your fifth senior sister is also extremely talented in swordsmanship. However, she has been practicing for decades and has only barely reached the beginning of "Sword 2". So, at this stage, you should not be greedy for higher things. Practicing "Sword 1" successfully first will increase your strength."

Zhang Ruochen remembered the sword technique used by the fifth senior sister to defeat the Earth Fire Qilin in Xuanwu Ruins Realm, so he recited: "Yin and Yang are divided into heaven and earth, and the sword path will naturally end all laws."

At that time, the fifth senior sister read this sentence.

Old Man Xuan Ji said: "That's right. It's one of the mantras in "Sword 2".

Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but tighten the "Sword 1" in his hand and said, "Disciple will definitely be in the fish and dragon realm, so he will successfully practice "Sword 1"."

Old Man Xuan Ji smiled and said, "You must know that in the past thousand years, there have been only thirty-four people who have successfully practiced "Sword 1" in the Fish and Dragon Realm."

Zhang Ruochen asked, "Master is one of them?"

"That's right."

Old Man Xuan Ji seemed quite proud. After all, it was indeed quite amazing to successfully practice "Sword 1" in the Yulong Realm.

However, the old man Xuan Ji said again: "However, among the thirty-four people, there are still two people who have successfully practiced "Sword 2" in the Fish and Dragon Realm."

Zhang Ruochen has read the content of "Sword 1", and of course he knows how mysterious "Sword 1" is.

From this we can see that "Sword II" is definitely even more amazing.

It is already extremely difficult to successfully practice "Sword 1". In fact, there are still people who can practice "Sword 2" in the Fish and Dragon Realm.

Could it be... it's him.

In Zhang Ruochen's mind, he thought of a person eight hundred years ago.

That man was one of the nine emperors.

Sure enough, Old Man Xuan Ji's next words confirmed Zhang Ruochen's guess.

Old Man Xuan Ji said, "Those two are the Sword Emperor and the Queen Chi Yao."

"You don't ask you to be able to compare with the two of them. If you can successfully practice "Sword 1" in the Fish and Dragon Realm, you will be very pleased."

The name of the Sword Emperor can be said to be well-known to Zhang Ruochen.

The Sword Emperor, named "Xue Hongchen", is the son of the Lord of Wanxiang City. He is incomparable in talent, has a mysterious sword technique and is as romantic as jade. He is only thirty-six years old. He surpasses his father, Lord of Wanxiang City, and becomes the world-famous sword saint of the Red Dust.

Later, Xue Hongchen's realm in the sword path became higher and higher, and eventually reached a state where no one could cross it, becoming the Emperor of the Sword of that era.

At the same time, Xue Hongchen is also the youngest among the Nine Emperors.

The reason why Emperor Ming gave his son the name "Zhang Ruochen" was actually because he hoped that Zhang Ruochen could be as outstanding as Emperor Sword Snow Hongchen.

At that time, there was a saying in Kunlun Realm: "The Sword Saint of the Red Dust plays with the Red Dust, and having a child should be like snow and red Dust."

Although Zhang Ruochen had never met the Sword Emperor, he has always taken the Sword Emperor as an example since he was a child.

So, at this moment, when Mr. Xuan Ji mentioned the name of Sword Emperor for the second time, Zhang Ruochen couldn't help but ask: "Master, what level did Sword Emperor reach that year?"

Old Man Xuan Ji looked into the distance and showed an unprecedented look of fascination, saying, "The Sword Emperor has not appeared in the Kunlun Realm for many years, and no one knows what level he has reached. I just heard that he had successfully practiced "Sword Ten" eight hundred years ago, and some people say that he had comprehended "Sword Eleven". There are many rumors, but no one knows the true realm of the Sword Emperor."

Zhang Ruochen asked again: "So, what level can he be called a sword saint?"

"At least, you must successfully practice "Sword Seven" before you can be named Sword Saint."

Zhang Ruochen was a little surprised and said, "In the entire Eastern Region, only three people have successfully practiced "Sword Seven"?"

“That’s exactly that.”

Old Man Xuan Ji sighed and said, "So, even if you fail to practice "Sword 1", don't be discouraged, that's just an expectation for your teacher."

Zhang Ruochen and Xuan Ji continued to discuss "The Sword Without Words".

It was not until night fell that Zhang Ruochen took the sword score of "Sword 1" and left Linghe Liyuan, walked out of the Holy Courtyard, and headed towards the famous Wang Street.

The semi-saint mansion that Kong Lanyou gave him was located on Mingwang Street.

Zhang Ruochen walked in the middle of the busy street, and was still comprehending "Sword 1" in his mind, reaching a level of fascination.

His eyes were staring emptyly ahead, and all his thoughts were gathered in his mind.

Before he knew it, he had already arrived outside the mansion, opened the door, and walked in.

"Swish!"

As soon as I walked into the door, suddenly a sword sounded.

The sharp sword energy broke through the air, and a white sword light two fingers wide reflected on Zhang Ruochen's eyes.

The sword light was quite dazzling, which made Zhang Ruochen unable to help but close his eyes.

"Zheng!"

When he noticed the danger, the ancient Shenyuan sword automatically flew out of the scabbard.

Zhang Ruochen reacted almost instinctively, and with one finger, the Chenyuan Ancient Sword drew an arcuate trajectory and slashed under the shade of the tree on the left side of the gate.

There was a "pop".

As the Chen Yuan ancient sword fell, the opponent's sword immediately broke and turned into two pieces.

Zhang Ruochen opened his eyes and was about to slash him again, but he saw that the person who had just drawn the sword at him was just a five- or six-year-old girl.

It's cold snow.

At this time, Han Xue stood under the shade of the tree, pinching a broken sword in her hand, and her white and tender little hands were covered with blood. She resisted the pain in her wrist and retreated quickly.

In an instant, Zhang Ruochen woke up immediately, quickly controlled the sword intent and took the Chenyuan Ancient Sword back into the scabbard.

"Hanxue, how could it be you?"

Zhang Ruochen rushed over immediately to check Han Xue's injuries.

Although Zhang Ruochen only had a random blow to the sword just now, the power contained was extraordinary.

How old is Han Xue, how could she withstand Zhang Ruochen's sword?

Fortunately, the Chenyuan Ancient Sword only cut off Han Xue's sword, shaking the tiger's mouth in her right hand, and suffered some minor injuries, which was not serious.

Han Xue didn't cry, but just pursed her lips hard and said pitifully: "Master, what were you thinking about just now? You were too heavy to kill Han Xue."

"I'm sorry, Master was just pursuing the sword, but I didn't expect that you were the one who took action. By the way, why did you ambush Master?"

Zhang Ruochen stretched out his wide palm and pressed it on Han Xue's wrist, injecting a stream of true energy into her arm meridians, wanting to help her heal her wounds.

But Zhang Ruochen realized that before his true energy was injected into Han Xue's meridians, the injuries on Han Xue's hands began to heal automatically.

Hey!

how so?

Zhang Ruochen has a dragon ball in his body, but he does not have the powerful self-healing ability as strong as her.

In just a moment, Han Xue's right hand tiger's mouth healed again, and even a scar was left.

What surprised Zhang Ruochen even more was that although the sword he had cut off Han Xue's sword, it did not shake off her sword.
