C1622 The Calm Before the Storm
In fact, one could even hear the shocking words of the cultivators in the inn. One should know that these geniuses were extremely important to the cities guarding the border. However, now that they were all gathered in the Mountain Sea Pass, even though there was no news about them, they were keenly aware of the danger they were in.
The atmosphere in the entire Shanhai Pass became tense. Although it looked no different from before, under the calm surface, undercurrents were surging.
Instantly, the gazes of the entire Humans couldn't help but gather at the Mountain Sea Pass. There were even countless rogue cultivators crazily gathering toward this place. After all, in the eyes of these people, a huge crisis also represented a huge opportunity.
During this period of time, Sun Bing felt extremely relaxed. After all, he had always been alone, so he didn't have to worry about anything else.
Although Dao Child Son of the Buddha and the others had invited Sun Bing to discuss some matters, it was enough for Sun Bing to go there once. He didn't go there a second time, so it was better for him to practice his sword quietly and try his best to make a breakthrough.
However, his peaceful life was soon broken because his old friend had finally arrived in the Mountain and Sea Pass. The most conspicuous one among them was his disciple, Qian Qiuxue.
It had been a hundred years since he last saw Qian Qiuxue. After the last battle, Sun Bing wanted to see the changes in Qian Qiuxue, but unfortunately, he had already gone deep into the battlefield and confronted Ancient Clans.
After knowing about this, Sun Bing's heart was filled with regret. He could only give up now, but now, he could finally meet Qian Qiuxue again.
A hundred years had been a very long time for this kind of environment. As for Qian Qiuxue's transformation during these hundred years, it had completely exceeded Sun Bing's expectation. From afar, one could see his straight body, which looked like a sharp sword.
Sun Bing's heart was filled with emotion. He slowly walked forward and found that Qian Qiuxue's body was filled with boundless killing intent. Obviously, he had gone through a lot of intense battles to achieve such an achievement.
"Master, long time no see."
A deep voice was slowly heard. In front of Sun Bing, Qian Qiuxue was just like the previous one. He had completely accepted the cold shell that he was holding. Instead, he was incomparably gentle.
Sun Bing smiled as he looked at the figure in front of him. When his cultivation base reached the Saint Stage, Qian Qiuxue's talent had completely erupted. Without Sun Bing's guidance, he had directly comprehended the secrets of the Sword Soul and became the second Sword Saint in the world.
With the help of the Sword Heart Bone, the strength he could unleash was far beyond his imagination. Even though he might be slightly weaker than Yu Sheng and the others, he could still be considered the top genius of the Humans.
This was the true number of two geniuses in the sect. After knowing Qian Qiuxue's strength, Sun Bing could not help but feel satisfied. In the end, he could only sigh with emotion. "After you have achieved the Doctrine, you will have to walk your own path. I can no longer give you any help. In the future, you will still have to walk on your own."
Obviously, Qian Qiuxue knew about this matter. He nodded slowly and didn't say anything. However, his attitude towards Sun Bing didn't change. After all, he had been his father for the rest of his life. Sun Bing's help to him was too great.
Such kindness couldn't even be described with words. If it wasn't for Sun Bing's help, he would have died a long time ago. How could he have lasted until today? Therefore, all of this could only be hidden deep in his heart.
Apart from Qian Qiuxue, Hua Qiyue and Sun Yanran had also arrived at the Mountain and Sea Pass. After cultivating to the Saint realm, their appearances had become even more beautiful. Hua Qiyue was wearing a long pink dress, which made her look like a beautiful flower in the world. It made people fall in love with her at first sight.
As for Sun Yanran, she was still dressed in plain clothes. However, when coupled with her unique cold expression, it also moved people's heart and made them feel intoxicated.
Furthermore, the two of them were not only beautiful, they were also extremely powerful. It seemed like they understood the gap between them and Sun Bing, which made them work even harder. Moreover, they had also obtained a lot of opportunities in the cemetery last time.
Therefore, their current strength could be said to be above average, even amongst the many geniuses in the Humans. They were worthy of being called Daughter of Heaven's Pride.
When he saw these two beauties, Sun Bing's heart couldn't help but palpitate. However, it was quickly suppressed by them. After all, there was still a huge crisis ahead. There was no time for him to estimate the relationship between the two of them.
Fortunately, the two beauties knew the severity of the matter and didn't mention anything about it. The group of three stars quietly enjoyed the peace before the battle.
Time slowly flowed by like this. The scorching aura in the air became denser and denser. Every day, countless geniuses would head to the Mountain Sea Pass. However, there were also many people who would leave the pass. This could not be blamed on them. In the face of unknown dangers, hiding was a natural choice.
As for Sun Bing and the others, even their relaxed faces had changed. After all, ever since the incident in Wolong Hillside was exposed, Ancient Clans didn't even try to cover it up anymore. He had become more and more unscrupulous.
One after another, alien races crazily gathered in this place. Every one of them was a proud son of heaven amongst the young generation, and they were all extremely powerful. Although both sides hadn't started fighting yet, they had already started a silent battle.
News gradually spread to the Nine Prefectures, and coupled with the loud and clear dragon roars, no matter how ignorant they were, they knew that something earth-shattering was going to happen in the Wolong Hillside.
At this moment, it could be said that everyone in the Nine Prefectures had their eyes fixed on the Mountain Sea Pass. After all, if they were to confront each other this time, it could be considered as the first battle between the Nine Prefectures during the integration of the Nine Prefectures. It was extremely eye-catching.
However, before the corpse of the Azure Dragon appeared, whether it was the Humans or Ancient Clans, they were extremely restrained. Even the original battlefield had been withdrawn, quietly waiting for the world-shaking battle that was about to erupt.
On this day, Sun Bing was practicing his sword in the courtyard outside the house, just like before. He had returned to his ordinary days, and even his state of mind had been improved. His Swords Arts had advanced a step further, and had completely consolidated his recent gains.
He slowly unleashed the basic Swords Arts. Although it looked ordinary and simple, it seemed like every single strike was incomparably profound, and it was aimed directly at the Sword Dao.
It could be said that watching Sun Bing practice the basic Swords Arts was something that all the cultivators in the Nine Provinces dreamt of. Even if one's comprehension ability wasn't good, one could still obtain some results. And if one's talent was amazing, it could even undergo a transformation.
However, at this moment, a shocking dragon roar sounded out from the heaven and earth. In an instant, everyone's expression changed. Hua Qiyue and Sun Yanran who were originally in the house also walked out.
The three of them looked at each other and their expressions were incomparably ugly because this dragon roar was completely different from the past. In the past, at most, only the Mountain Sea Pass could hear it. However, this time, the dragon's roar spread throughout the Nine States.
After a long time, Sun Bing withdrew his sword and let out a long sigh. "What should come will eventually come."
