“Vice Regiment Master Nie is back!”
“Vice Troupe Master Nie, that move of finding the moon in the water, I’ve never been able to cultivate it to a great extent, can you instruct me?”
……
Just after Nie Honglou returned, the Silver Sky Mercenary Regiment exploded, and those mercenary warriors surrounded him one after another, as if they were all starry-eyed, clustering him in the centre.
Among them, there were mostly young women.
Each one of them was sending beautiful glances at Nie Honglou, as if they were chasing after the lover of their dreams, looking very excited.
It had to be said that Nie Honglou’s sold look was indeed extraordinary, unusually handsome, with delicate features, a hard body, and an astonishingly high talent, so naturally, he was able to gain the favour of countless young women.
Nie Honglou laughed, “Today, I’ll introduce you all to a guest, if you guys encounter bottlenecks in your sword techniques, you can ask him, and he’ll definitely be able to point you out.”
With that, Nie Honglou pointed towards Zhang Ruochen.
Only then did the crowd see that there was a young man standing beside Nie Honglou.
That one young man, although not as handsome and demonic as Nie Honglou, was still clear-eyed and valiant, with a unique aura on his body that gave off a sense of approachability.
Dozens of pairs of eyes, all staring at Zhang Ruochen’s body, but Zhang Ruochen did not have the slightest nervousness, and still appeared to be very calm and collected.
A female mercenary with a ponytail walked out, wearing long iron boots and carrying a serpentine battle sword on her back, and stood up opposite Zhang Ruochen.
“His age, estimated to be less than twenty-five, is able to instruct us?”
She looked Zhang Ruochen’s entire body over, frowned, and gently shook, obviously not very optimistic about Zhang Ruochen.
Martial artists, although they could use their True Qi to contain their bodies and slow down aging.
However, a martial artist’s eyes could not fool anyone.
As long as one was an expert in martial arts, one could tell the true age of a martial artist through their eyes.
That one female mercenary, named Tu Ling, with a cultivation level of Heavenly Extremity Realm Grand Circle, was a 《The Heavenly Ranking》 martial artist, for a junior leader of the Silver Sky Mercenary Group.
With her strength, of course, she wouldn’t put a young man in his early twenties in her eyes.
Nie Honglou smiled and said, ”Tu Ling, it’s been seven years since you reached the Great Circle of the Heavenly Extremity Realm, right? How many places are you ranked on the Heavenly Ranking?”
Although Tu Ling was high-minded and proud, he was still very respectful towards Nie Honglou, an elder, and hurriedly bowed his hand and said, “Reporting back to the Deputy Troupe Master, right now, I’m ranked eighty-four thousand and seventy-two on the Heavenly Ranking.”
Nie Honglou said, “Your progress is quite fast, I remember, last year, you were still ranked after the 200,000th position.”
Tu Ling lifted up her full breasts and tilted her chin, looking quite confident as she laughed, “Last year, when I was on a mission, I obtained a thousand year old spirit medicine, and after refining it, my cultivation greatly improved, so naturally, I made an impact on the top 100,000th position of the Heavenly Ranking.”
“If I can then cultivate the Ghost Grade Lower Grade Sword Technique ‘Shattered Moon Sword Technique’ passed down by the Troupe Master to its great completion, my ranking above the ‘Heavenly Ranking’ will definitely go even further.”
Tu Ling had been cultivating the Shattered Moon Sword Technique for five years, and was only one step away from the Grand Completion Realm.
Nie Honglou shook his head and said, “Your natural talent, is already quite good, it’s just a pity that compared to this little brother beside me, it’s still too far off.”
Tu Ling was very unconvinced and said, “Deputy Troupe Master, you have not looked down on people too much, although Tu Ling has not broken through to the Fish Dragon Realm, but these past few years have not been in vain, and he has been making progress all the time. Do you really think that a 《The Heavenly Ranking》 martial artist is that unbeatable?”
“Swish!”
Tu Ling snorted coldly, mobilised her true qi, and lifted her finger upwards.
The snake-shaped crystal sword on her back flew out of its sheath under the pull of her true qi and fell into her hand.
Two strands of Feng Xuan were born between Tu Ling’s legs as she rushed out in a hurry, and at the same time, she quickly stabbed out with her sword, executing a move of the Shattered Moon Sword Technique.
Immediately, thirty-six sword shadows appeared in front of the battle sword, striking Zhang Ruochen’s entire body at thirty-six vital points at the same time.
Zhang Ruochen only smiled faintly as his body shifted slightly, and a single Body Technique Void appeared.
A moment later, all of those silhouettes overlapped.
Zhang Ruochen was still standing in his original position, as if, he had never moved from the beginning.
Tu Ling was slightly surprised for a moment and was ready to strike again, but he realised that his sword had appeared in Zhang Ruochen’s hand.
What exactly had happened just now?
“My sword ……”
Tu Ling’s face changed as she immediately cupped her palm and attacked Zhang Ruochen.
Zhang Ruochen took a step back, easily dodging Tu Ling’s attack, and with a wave of his arm, he threw out the snake-like The battle sword, which flew in a circle around Tu Ling, returned to its scabbard with a clatter.
“The Art of Sword Royalty, Sword Mind.”
Tu Ling immediately stood still and stopped his attack, his eyes widening in shock, as if he was reacquainting himself with the young man in front of him.
To be so young, to be able to achieve Sword Heart Passage?
Although she was an expert of The Heavenly Ranking, she was extremely far from the realm of Swordheart Tongming.
Encountering a young martial artist who had cultivated into Sword Mind Tongming, Tu Ling naturally admired him and no longer looked down on Zhang Ruochen like she had earlier, instead, her eyes revealed a few moments of admiration and respect.
“Dare I ask how Your Excellency is addressed?”Tu Ling arched her hand and asked.
Zhang Ruochen also arched his hand and returned the salute, saying, “Zhang Ruochen.”
Tu Ling revealed a look of “I was right” and said joyfully, “So it’s the king of the new generation, sailing to the Silver Sky Mercenary Corps, no wonder he was able to cultivate into the Sword Heart Tongming at such an age. Admirable! Admirable!”
“He is one of the six kings of the new generation, Zhang Ruochen?”
“Legend has it that he defeated the Young Master of the Black Market One Piece Hall, and is the first among the latest batch of Saints recruited by the Holy Academy this year.”
“What is he doing in the Silver Sky Mercenary Corps?”
“It’s said that his attainments in the Dao of the Sword have reached the realm of Sword Mind, so if he can instruct us in a few sword techniques, he’ll definitely be able to raise our strength by a lot.”
……
Most of those mercenaries around them had heard of Zhang Ruochen’s name and had heard many legends about him.
Some of the young martial artists among them had always taken Zhang Ruochen as a goal to strive for, and now, seeing the real person, they were naturally quite excited!
Immediately after, some people walked over to Zhang Ruochen and spoke about the difficulties they encountered in their sword cultivation, hoping that Zhang Ruochen would be able to guide them.
Zhang Ruochen was very patient and always had a smile on his face as he and those martial artists from the Silver Sky Mercenary Corps talked to each other about sword techniques and exchanged their martial dao, and at the same time, he also occasionally spoke out some of his understandings on the sword dao.
About an hour later, in the centre area of the Silver Sky Mercenary Corps, the door of a tower opened with a loud bang.
In the door, a faint white light was emitted, and a tall woman, with a full head of long silver hair, a cold temperament, and an icy gaze, wore battle boots and armour, revealing a snow-white, flat belly.
It was none other than the Silver Sky Mercenary Regiment’s regiment master, Silver Moon LinKong.
Standing on top of the stone steps, Silver Moon Lingkong first glanced in Zhang Ruochen’s direction and frowned slightly, then, he looked towards Nie Honglou, revealing a questioning look.
Nie Honglou bowed to Silvermoon Linkong and used a sound wave transmission to say something to Silvermoon Linkong. Afterwards, Silvermoon Lincon nodded, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Finally, her gaze, once again fixed on Zhang Ruochen’s body as she walked over.
Seeing Silver Moon LinKong walk out, those mercenaries of the Silver Sky Mercenary Corps, quieted down and retreated to the sides, looking solemn and solemn as they bowed respectfully to her.
“Greetings to the troupe master.”The crowd said in unison.
“She is the Silver Moon Lingkong, the regiment master of the Silver Sky Mercenary Regiment?”
Zhang Ruochen’s eyes glanced towards that one woman who had stepped out from the tower, sizing her up carefully.
Silver Moon LinKong looked to be only in her twenties, with a flawless figure.
Obviously wearing armour and having a cold temperament, she had the ability to give off an incomparably sexy feeling.
However, Zhang Ruochen realised that even if he injected his true qi into his eye veins, he was unable to see Silvermoon Lingkong’s true appearance.
It was as if she was standing in another time and space, and Zhang Ruochen could only see her shadow, unable to see her real body.
No, that was her true body.
It was just that her cultivation was so high that she had far surpassed mortals and had stepped onto the true Saint Dao. That was why Zhang Ruochen couldn’t see through her.
Of course, Zhang Ruochen would still be able to see Silvermoon Lingkong’s appearance and even her cultivation if he were to activate his Heavenly Eyes. Only, that would be too disrespectful and would definitely enrage the other party.
“Her cultivation, actually reaching such a profound realm, it is estimated that she is really not far from the realm of a Half Saint.”
Zhang Ruochen was able to clearly see that every time Silver Moon Lingkong took a step, the aura of heaven and earth would vibrate a little, as if she had become the centre of the surrounding heaven and earth.
In front of her, Zhang Ruochen was unable to mobilise the heaven and earth aura even if he released his martial soul.
Although, Zhang Ruochen’s natural talent was already very high. However, there was a sky beyond the sky, and there were people beyond the people, and in the Eastern Domain Earth, there were still many amazing human masters and ghost talents.
Silvermoon Lingkong and Nie Honglou could both be called human geniuses, and in terms of talent, they even surpassed the vast majority of saints in the Sacred Courtyard.
