63: Abandoning the sword and becoming a doctor

Chapter 63 Abandoning the Sword to Practice Medicine

The place that was originally filled with spiritual energy now turned into a desolate wasteland.

Yellow sand filled the sky, incredibly lonely.

Behind him, a sudden killing intent came.

He subconsciously turned his head to look and immediately saw a skeleton holding a sword and attacking.

Xiao Lingchen immediately dodged the attack of this sword, and then fiercely struck it.

He shattered the entire skeleton!

However, his action seemed to have violated a taboo.

Suddenly, a "crackling" sound came from the surroundings, like the sound of bones rubbing, or like the sound of ants gnawing.

It made one's scalp tingle.

As far as the eye could see, from the yellow soil on the ground, skeletons were crawling up one after another.

They had no life, nor any emotions.

Holding swords in their hands, they all rushed towards Xiao Lingchen to kill him!

"Damn it, why is the True Martial Space I entered like this?"

"Where are the twenty hot, scantily clad, peerless immortal women?"

"Even one would be fine! It's better than these skeletons, right?!"

Xiao Lingchen complained weakly.

Seeing the skeleton soldiers charging towards him, he decisively pulled out the Phoenix Emperor Sword and killed these skeleton soldiers again!

However, after killing this batch, there was another batch.

After killing the next batch, there was yet another batch!

Endless skeletons emerged from the ground, more and more, more and more.

And the strength of each batch of skeleton soldiers was stronger than the strength of the previous batch!

In the beginning, those skeleton soldiers were only at the Gathering Spirit Realm and Spirit Sea Realm.

But very quickly, skeletons at the Spirit Platform Realm and Dao Palace Realm appeared!

And after Xiao Lingchen killed hundreds of thousands of skeleton soldiers, even skeleton soldiers at the Breaking Illusion Realm appeared!

Xiao Lingchen did not want to waste time on them.

After all, he entered this True Martial Space to seek opportunities.

Thinking this in his heart, he also leaped up, wanting to fly away.

But he found that there was a Restriction set up here.

He actually couldn't fly!

In desperation, he killed the skeleton soldier in front of him with a sword, and then used the Divine Travel Step to leave the place by foot.

However, very quickly, Xiao Lingchen discovered.

The number of skeleton soldiers here was simply outrageous!

Looking around, they were densely packed.

The entire wasteland was occupied by skeleton soldiers.

To leave this place, the only way was to kill a bloody path!

Xiao Lingchen hardened his heart, waved the Phoenix Emperor Sword, and charged forward!

"Help!"

"Is there anyone who can save me!"

Suddenly, a cry for help came from the front.

As far as the eye could see.

A white-clothed, elegant young man was surrounded by countless skeleton soldiers, in imminent danger.

Upon seeing Xiao Lingchen, he quickly called out for help:

"Fellow Daoist, save me!"

Xiao Lingchen was slightly surprised. Were there other people in this True Martial Space?

He didn't think much.

He charged towards the young man.

At the last critical moment, he saved him!

"Many... many thanks, Fellow Daoist. I am Guan Xunzhi. May I ask for your name, Fellow Daoist?"

"Xiao Lingchen."

Xiao Lingchen asked while swinging his sword:

"Why are you in this True Martial Space?"

"True Martial Space?"

Guan Xunzhi was stunned for a moment, then understood something:

"Brother Lingchen is talking about the True Martial Continent, right?"

"Brother Lingchen is really joking. Since we were born on the True Martial Continent, we are naturally within this True Martial Continent."

"Why else would we be here?"

"Could it be that Brother Lingchen is not from the True Martial Continent?"

Hearing this.

Xiao Lingchen's heart tightened.

True Martial Continent?

Could it be that the so-called True Martial Space is not actually an independent Mystic Realm space.

But a real, existing place, another continent in this world?

Xiao Lingchen shook his head and replied:

"I am from the Heavenly Dry Continent."

Guan Xunzhi murmured the Heavenly Dry Continent repeatedly, as if thinking about something.

Then he shook his head again:

"Never heard of it."

"Oh, Guan is a Disciple of the Spirit Cloud Sword Sect. I was on my way home to visit my family and passed through this place."

"I didn't expect to be trapped here. Fortunately, Brother Lingchen came to my rescue."

"Guan is extremely grateful!"

"Let's be grateful after we get out."

Xiao Lingchen said concisely.

Seeing the skeleton soldiers around them getting more and more numerous.

Xiao Lingchen decided to kill a bloody path first and escape from this place.

So he swept vigorously, and a vast sword energy shot out, killing all the hundreds of thousands of skeleton soldiers in front of him.

Then he took Guan Xunzhi and fled forward all the way.

However, they didn't run far.

Guan Xunzhi looked anxious.

"Brother Lingchen, stop, stop quickly!"

Xiao Lingchen looked puzzled.

Guan Xunzhi explained:

"My home is in the west. If Brother Lingchen takes me all the way east, Guan will get farther and farther away from home!"

"Please, Brother Lingchen, take me west! Please, please~"

Xiao Lingchen was helpless.

However, with enemies on all sides, going in any direction was the same.

He simply changed direction and killed his way to the west!

Xiao Lingchen took Guan Xunzhi and killed his way forward, traveling dozens of miles.

The number of skeleton soldiers killed was countless!

Gradually, the strength of the skeleton soldiers became stronger and stronger, and even skeleton soldiers above the fifth level of the Breaking Illusion Realm appeared!

Xiao Lingchen was helpless and could only use all his trump cards.

The nether thunder drum hung in the sky, releasing Heavenly Tribulation!

The God-Slaying Sword Art, Azure Thunder Fury, and even the Law Manifestation of Heaven and Earth and other Mystic Skills were all used.

But as the strength of the appearing skeleton soldiers became stronger and stronger.

Xiao Lingchen also felt it was difficult to cope.

Especially with a burden like Guan Xunzhi, it made him even more unable to fully use his skills.

He could only use the creation cauldron in front to clear the way for him!

And he, under the time flow acceleration of the Fuguang Jade Sundial, used the Divine Travel Step and Instantaneous Movement to the extreme.

Moving forward all the way!

"That's strange, didn't you say you were a Disciple of some Sword Sect?"

"Why is your strength so weak?"

During this time, Xiao Lingchen was truly unable to complain.

So he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

In his opinion, anyone who could join a Sect should have some talent, right?

Especially a Sword Sect, which has even more stringent requirements for Disciples.

And Sword Cultivators' combat power is among the best in the same realm.

But the Guan Xunzhi in front of him was a complete weakling!

Let alone skeleton soldiers at the Breaking Illusion Realm, even a random one at the Spirit Platform Realm could send him to his death.

Guan Xunzhi scratched his head somewhat awkwardly and said:

"To be honest, although Guan is a Disciple of the Spirit Cloud Sword Sect, what I mainly cultivate is the medical path."

Hearing this.

Xiao Lingchen was even more confused.

Entering a Sword Sect to cultivate the medical path?

Guan Xunzhi sighed and explained sadly:

"It's like this."

"Guan's family was poor since childhood, and Guan's Father suffered from a chronic illness, was bedridden for years, and endured the torment of illness day and night."

"To treat my Father's illness, Guan used up all his family's wealth and searched for famous doctors but was always unable to cure him completely."

"So, Guan thought of a method, which was to join a cultivation Sect, learn the medical path, and personally treat my Father's illness."

"Guan's talent was not bad, especially in terms of swordsmanship, so I successfully joined the Spirit Cloud Sword Sect."

"However, in order to treat my Father's illness, Guan did not join the main peak lineage that primarily cultivated swordsmanship, but chose the Pill Peak lineage that focused on refining pills and treating illnesses, and began to cultivate the medical path."

"Now, ten years have passed, and Guan has finally achieved some success in my studies, so I came down the mountain to go home and treat my Father's chronic illness."

"I didn't expect to be trapped here, and I'm also troubling Brother Lingchen by having to carry me, a burden."

"If I can be sent home and my Father's chronic illness is cured, Guan is willing to express my gratitude with a generous gift!"
