Chapter 207 - 207: Sword Intent Token
As he spoke, Jiang Chengxuan took the initiative to hand Zheng Pelong’s letter to Gu Yuefeng.
Gu Yuefeng nodded and said softly,
“There’s no need for the formalities.”
As he spoke, he reached out and took the letter.
After reading the contents of the letter, he suddenly fell into deep thought.
He did not move and did not speak.
However, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and even Hua Mengyou could clearly feel that a terrifying sword intent was rising from Gu Yuefeng.
Seeing this, Hua Mengyou’s pretty face immediately changed.
She quickly turned around and said to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, “Fellow Daoists, let’s leave Shifu’s cave abode. Shifu has entered a state of sword comprehension again.”
Without waiting for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to reply, she took the lead and left the cave abode.
When the couple saw this, they did not hesitate and followed.
Outside, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan looked at Hua Mengyou in confusion.
Hua Mengyou said with a lingering fear, “My Shifu is like that.
Once he falls into a state of sword comprehension, he will lose the perceptions of the outside world. His entire body and mind will be immersed in that state.
At that time, if we still stay in his cave abode, we might be injured by the sword qi emitted from his body.
In serious cases, it’s possible for us to lose our lives.”
“That serious?”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were both stunned.
However, just as they asked their questions, an extremely terrifying sword qi suddenly erupted from the cave abode in front of them.
In the sky above the cave abode, the phantom of a sword appeared.
It was as magnificent as a dragon and looked like it would attack at any moment.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others were dazzled.
Buzz!
Fortunately, at this moment, an earthen yellow barrier suddenly rose and enveloped the cave abode.
It stopped and isolated the sword qi from spreading out and covered the phantom in the sky.
It was only at this moment that Hua Mengyou finally heaved a sigh of relief.
She looked at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan with a bitter smile and explained,
“That was a restriction my Shifu had set up in the cave abode a long time ago.
As long as the aura or sword qi he emits exceeds a certain extent, the protective barrier in the cave abode will activate on its own to prevent it from affecting the outside world.”
I see.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan nodded in realization.
However, they were still astonished.
Gu Yuefeng seemed to be extremely obsessed with the Sword Dao.
Without any rhyme or reason, he entered a state of sword comprehension.
Moreover, once he entered this state, Gu Yuefeng seemed to be oblivious to the outside world and was absolutely engrossed in comprehending the Sword Dao.
No wonder he was known as the Invincible Sword among hundreds of thousands of sword cultivators.
Just as the couple was thinking about this, the earthen yellow barrier surrounding the cave abode began to slowly disappear.
When it was completely gone, a token with a sword mark flew out.
Then, as if it recognized Jiang Chengxuan, it stopped in front of him.
Seeing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan could not help but be puzzled.
They turned to look at Hua Mengyou, only to see a trace of shock on her face.
She looked at the two of them and said enviously,
“This is my Shifu’s Sword Intent Token. As long as the person holding this token injects Dharmic power into it, my Shifu will be able to sense it immediately.
At that time, as long as it’s within my Shifu’s ability, he will help the person holding this token.”
At this point, Hua Mengyou seemed to have thought of something and continued,
“I remember that the last person who received my Shifu’s Sword Intent Token was the current pavilion master.
It’s been more than 200 years since then.”
Hearing this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan realized what the Sword Intent Token meant.
It seemed that this was the gift Gu Yuefeng had given them.
They just did not know what was written in Zheng Pelong’s letter that made Gu Yuefeng bestow something so valuable on them.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan did not hesitate anymore and reached out to grab the Sword Intent Token.
The moment this Sword Intent Token was in his hand, Jiang Chengxuan immediately knew about its use.
Just as Hua Mengyou had said, the holder of this Sword Intent Token could indeed make a request to Gu Yuefeng.
“By the way…”
After Jiang Chengxuan put away the Sword Intent Token, he suddenly thought of something and couldn’t help but look at Hua Mengyou.
“Fellow Daoist Hua, have you heard about the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect?”
Originally, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan wanted to ask Gu Yuefeng about this.
However, from the looks of it, Gu Yuefeng clearly did not have time to see them again.
Therefore, they could only settle for the next best thing and ask Hua Mengyou.
Fortunately, Hua Mengyou was a Violet Palace elder of the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and was Gu Yuefeng’s personal disciple. If the Jade Water Sword Pavilion was informed of anything about the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect, she would definitely know.
As expected,
When she heard Jiang Chengxuan mention the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect, Hua Mengyou’s expression immediately became solemn.
She nodded at Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
“To be honest with you, now, we have already discovered some traces of the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect in the Liang Nation.
Pavillion master has already personally brought people to investigate this matter. I believe that there will be news soon.
If we can confirm the stronghold of the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect in the Liang Nation this time, the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and the Heavenly Yue Sect will probably gather all the families and sects above the Foundation Establishment to raid the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect together.”
Hearing Hua Mengyou’s words, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s eyes narrowed.
From what she said, the scale of the Seven Lotuses Demonic Sect was probably beyond their imagination.
Otherwise, the two Golden Core sects, the Jade Water Sword Pavilion and the Heavenly Yue Sect, wouldn’t need to gather all the families and sects above the Foundation Establishment in the Liang Nation.
It seemed that the situation was more serious than they thought.
Or could it be that during this short period of time, something that they did not know had happened?
At the thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but look solemn.
At this moment, a blue sword light broke through the layers of clouds and flew towards them in the blink of an eye.
“It’s the pavilion master!”
Hua Mengyou immediately revealed a respectful expression.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also became serious. They watched as the blue sword light approached and landed in front of them.
Hua Mengyou immediately bowed and said, “Greetings, Pavilion Master!”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan also bowed respectfully.. “Greetings, Pavilion Master!”
