Chapter 142 The terrifying sword body, on the way to Pingyang City

Su Chen and Mu Qingling traveled slowly, and it took them five years to travel through a country. The entire Eastern Region was extremely vast, and there were hundreds of forces like the Cangyun Empire.

In addition, there were many larger empires.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye.

Mu Qingling had broken through from the middle stage of the Nascent Soul to the late stage of the Refining Void, and it was a very solid late stage of the Refining Void.

Her cultivation was gradual, and she consolidated her foundation step by step before breaking through. In addition, she was a sword body, so her actual combat power was completely comparable to the middle stage of the Return to Origin, or even the late stage of the Return to Origin.

This combat power was even stronger than many people in the Su family.

Of course, Mu Qingling's ability to have this strength was greatly related to her own efforts.

She was very passionate about cultivation, and she asked Su Chen countless questions about cultivation every day, and her heart for cultivation was extremely pure.

"Boom!"

Accompanied by a loud noise, a terrifying sword intent suddenly bloomed in a forest somewhere, cutting the trees directly in half, leaving a mess.

On the mountain in the distance, a deep gully appeared. If the mountain was not thick enough, it would have been cut directly.

The center of the sword.

Mu Qingling slowly opened her eyes. At this moment, she was like a sword, and her whole body revealed a sharp and powerful aura.

"Master, I have finally reached the third level of sword."

Mu Qingling's face was full of joy.

After Su Chen glanced at her, he smiled and nodded: "Not bad."

The core of the sword body is to cultivate the sword, and each level can enhance the strength, and there is no upper limit.

However, as the level of sword intent becomes higher and higher, it will become more and more difficult to comprehend the sword.

Su Chen has seen from some of the immortal records that there was once a peerless sword body, and he only cultivated the sword to the seventeenth level at most.

That was also the person with the highest sword cultivation in the entire immortal world.

Seventeenth level, that is indeed extremely terrifying.

Sword intent is not like spiritual power. It is not consumed. It is more like an enchantment. That is, you originally only have one sword with 999, but after understanding the sword intent, you can hit 9999, or even 99999.

Every sword attack is a critical hit, and every sword attack is a real injury.

So the stronger the sword intent is, even if your cultivation is very low, you still have the power to defy the heavens.

Of course, the sword intent is contained in the body after all. If your own cultivation is too low, I am afraid that you will be directly wiped out by this sword intent.

This is also the reason why many sword cultivators have some injuries. Although the sword intent is terrifying, if the physical body is not strong, it will also damage the body.

But the sword body is the best physique to accommodate the sword intent. However, after each level of sword intent is upgraded, the sword body needs to be upgraded. Otherwise, even if you can comprehend the sword intent behind, you will not be able to accommodate it and will damage your body.

And upgrading the sword body requires a lot of natural materials and treasures.

This is also the reason why the upper limit of the sword body is easily limited.

If you don't have enough resources, even if you are lucky enough to awaken the sword body, you can't upgrade the sword body.

The upper limit of the sword body is that its improvement is unlimited. Whether it is the sword body or the sword intention, you can always comprehend and improve it.

The lower limit is that if the resources are not enough and the comprehension is not enough, it may be difficult to make any progress.

In the later stage, if you can't break through the sword body, you may never make any progress in your life.

To put it bluntly, this road is full of thorns and very difficult, but there is also more room for growth and stronger combat power.

Moreover, the later the sword body is, the more terrifying the treasures consumed to break through are.

"Let's go!"

Su Chen stood up and walked towards the distance, and Mu Qingling followed behind him obediently.

Another half a year passed.

Mu Qingling's cultivation has reached the perfect state of refining emptiness. Although this improvement speed is not as fast as those monsters, it is not slow.

"This is..."

Su Chen looked into the distance with a little surprise in his eyes.

A hundred miles away is Mingyue City. I didn't expect that I would return to my starting point after walking for a while.

In fact, Mingyue City did not bring him any deep memories, but Pingyang City, which is also one of the five major cities, left a fresh impression on him.

Because there was a person there.

Ning Yan.

This woman was not very outstanding, and was even more ordinary than Lin Yimeng, but Su Chen had a deep memory of her.

"Since we are here, let's just go and see it on the way."

Since we have returned to Mingyue City, this trip has ended successfully, but it is a pity that he did not receive three disciples.

In fact, he met many people with good talents and good character along the way, but Su Chen did not accept any disciples.

Maybe it was because of lack of fate.

If he accepted disciples based on character and qualifications, I wonder how many people in the entire East Region would meet his requirements.

The Five Major Cities used to be the most marginal location in the East Region, but after the Su family became prosperous, they never gave up here, and even sent people to repair it, so the Five Major Cities are now much more prosperous than before.

In addition, this place is not far from the Jinghong Empire, and the spiritual energy is extremely abundant. Many powerful people at the level of the Refining Void Stage have settled here, and even powerful people at the Fusion Stage have stationed their forces here.

The increase in the number of cultivators naturally made the five major cities more lively.

Su Chen did not stay in Mingyue City, but went directly to Pingyang City.

......

Pingyang City.

Ning Family.

The current Ning family can be said to be one of the most powerful forces in Pingyang City. Back then, Ning Yan also became the great elder of the Ning family, and he still had the cultivation level of the middle stage of Xuren.

When Su Chen left, he improved her spiritual roots and gave her a lot of resources, which were almost enough for Ning Yan to cultivate to the combined state.

In addition, Ning Yan still has a relationship with the Su family, so the position of the great elder naturally falls on Ning Yan.

At this moment, six people were sitting in the Ning family hall.

The person on the left is headed by Ning Huayu, the head of the Ning family, followed by Ning Yan and the second elder of the Ning family.

On the other side were two middle-aged men and an old man sitting.

"Elder He, your price is too unreasonable."

Ning Huayu continued with an ugly expression: "Those spirit stone veins were found by our Ning family with great difficulty. Each of them has at least a hundred million low-grade spirit stones. If you want to harvest five million low-grade spirit stones, Isn’t it too much to leave?”

Since the spiritual power of the Eastern Region became rich, new spiritual stone veins have been born in many places, and naturally there are many in the five major cities.

The Ning family, because of preconceptions, occupied three mineral veins.

This is also the foundation of their Ning family.

The three people opposite them were the three half-step combined realm experts who had recently settled in Pingyang City.

They are the head of the Wood Spirit Sect, the head of the Xu family, and the head of the Xunshan Sect.

None of the three of them can be defeated by the Ning family now.

The reason why the three of them came to the Ning family is very simple. They want the three spirit stone veins of the Ning family to serve as the foundation for development.

Although there are many such things as spirit stone veins in the Eastern Region, they will not be born all the time. Only one can be born within a certain range.

If the spiritual veins are not destroyed, a spiritual stone vein is similar to a spiritual storage pool, and can continuously produce spiritual stones, and even dragon veins.

So they only offered three million spiritual stones, which Ning Huayu couldn't accept in any case.

Mu Ping, the leader of the Wood Spirit Sect, said calmly: "Master Ning, I remember that your Ning family still has two small mineral veins. Although there are not many spiritual stones, there is still a chance to grow into a large mineral vein."
