41: Chapter 41: A Sword Splits the Mountain! Ah Liang Arrives!

The moment he grasped the long sword in his hand, a golden light ignited in Yang Simu's eyes!

In the next second, Yang Simu raised the long sword and slashed it down at the mountain in front of him!

With a mountain blocking my path and a sword in my hand, I shall split the mountain with one strike!

"Rumble!"

A blinding white light flared, and the mountain peak was split in two!

A gentle voice rang in Yang Simu's ear.

"Master, for the Sword Qi of this strike, I borrowed the residual Sword Intent from those ten Flying Swords just now; ordinary Cultivators will not be able to detect anything unusual."

"However, if their Sword Heart is pure enough and their cultivation is in the Upper Five Realms, there is a high probability they will sense it, even if they are a thousand miles away!"

...

Meanwhile, a thousand miles away, a man wearing a saber reached up to adjust the bamboo hat on his head.

He muttered to himself in confusion: "This is the second time I have sensed this special Sword Qi."

"Why does it want to lure me to rush there immediately?"

"Could it be that this is the sword I have been looking for?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man in the bamboo hat, who had carved the character "Fierce" with Sword Qi on the Great Wall of Sword Qi, transformed into a rainbow and sped away!

...

Yang Simu's body seemed to be instantly drained of all strength, and the long sword in his hand vanished.

His body tilted backward.

As for True Dragon Wang Zhu standing not far away, she was already frightened pale, devoid of all color.

She had originally thought that since she had left the Lizhu Blessed Land, she would never again have to endure the Sword Intent that had tormented her for three thousand years!

But at this very moment, Wang Zhu once again felt a tremor from her Soul!

The Iron Lock Well in the town of the Lizhu Blessed Land was the source of this True Dragon's Life Qi.

And the Old Sword Strip hanging beneath the covered bridge of Longxu Creek was one of the entities that had suppressed her for three thousand years!

The Golden Armored Deity atop the mountain flashed with golden light and caught the nearly collapsed Yang Simu.

The Green-Clad Girl and the Yellow-haired youth arrived immediately and asked in unison:

"Young Master, are you alright?"

Yang Simu took a deep breath, then gently shook his head.

In that moment just now, although he was a bit bewildered, his control over his internal Spiritual Qi and his comprehension of the Dao of the sword had undoubtedly ascended to a much higher level!

Only then did Great Sword Immortal Wei from the Shenxian Terrace of the Wind and Snow Temple slowly fly over.

He looked at Yang Simu, then swept a glance at the towering mountain behind him that had been split in two by a single sword strike, unable to hide the shock in his eyes!

"Is this... the power of that long sword in your hand?" Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin couldn't help but ask.

Yang Simu nodded.

Immediately after, he said in a deep voice: "Great Sword Immortal Wei, the commotion here will likely attract the attention of other Cultivators very soon; we must leave quickly."

Upon hearing this, Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin asked in confusion: "Since you already have a method to find that foreign Sword Immortal, I don't need to go, do I?"

"Besides, with a Golden Armored Deity of the Jade Purity Realm by your side, it seems you don't need me to escort you, right?"

Yang Simu smiled: "Great Sword Immortal Wei, you have been stuck at the Nascent Soul Stage for decades; don't you want to advance further?"

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin's pupils constricted slightly, and he asked jokingly: "Do you have a way?"

Yang Simu shook his head slightly, then said decisively: "Although I don't have a way, that foreign Sword Immortal definitely does!"

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin raised an eyebrow; it wasn't that he didn't want to believe Yang Simu, but rather that the statement itself was hard to believe!

Yang Simu smiled: "My Great Sword Immortal Wei, even if I am exaggerating a little, you won't lose anything by going!"

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin pondered for a moment and felt that this was indeed the case.

Moreover, even if that foreign Sword Immortal couldn't directly help him make a Breakthrough to the Upper Five Realms, as long as the other party was willing to discuss the Dao of the sword, Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin would definitely accompany him to the end!

A few seconds later, Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin nodded: "Fine, I will go with you!"

Yang Simu smiled.

Immediately after, Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin took out the emerald-green sword-nurturing gourd and handed it to Yang Simu.

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin said indifferently: "Contacting that Sword Immortal is your ability; it doesn't have much to do with me."

"You should take this sword-nurturing gourd back!"

Seeing this, Yang Simu quickly waved his hand: "Great Sword Immortal Wei, you are looking down on me, Yang Simu!"

"How can I take back something I have already given away?"

"You should personally give this emerald-green sword-nurturing gourd to Fairy He Xiaoliang of the Shengao Sect in the future!"

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin snorted softly and tossed the sword-nurturing gourd directly at Yang Simu.

Yang Simu had no choice but to accept it helplessly.

Just then, the Golden Armored Deity said in a deep voice: "Master, several groups of Qi Refining Cultivators from the mountains have arrived!"

"Among these people, there are no Sword Immortals above the Upper Five Realms; they are likely not the people Master is looking for."

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin and Yang Simu exchanged a glance.

In the next second, everyone had disappeared.

A dozen minutes later, several strange guests walked into the capital city of a Dynasty at the foot of the mountains.

A handsome man with a wine gourd at his waist and a long sword on his back was riding a small donkey.

Although Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin used an immortal technique to change his appearance, he still made passing women unable to help but turn their heads repeatedly.

There was also a youth in green, followed by a cute Green-Clad Girl, and a young maidservant who looked as if someone owed her hundreds of taels of silver.

As for the Golden Armored Deity and the Yellow-haired youth, Yang Simu had already placed them back into the Crystal Grotto-Heaven on the way.

At this moment, he also had the Green-Clad Girl help him slightly alter his appearance so he wouldn't be recognized at a glance.

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin frowned slightly: "Yang Simu, do we really have to keep waiting here?"

Yang Simu nodded: "Great Sword Immortal Wei, there is no need to rush; as long as that foreign Sword Immortal has already arrived at the eastern Baoping Continent, he will definitely sense the sword strike I just unleashed!"

"If he hasn't come after one day, I will unleash another sword strike!"

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin was slightly surprised.

Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin asked curiously: "Yang Simu, you have offended mountain powers like Zhengyang Mountain, Old Dragon City, and Yunxia Mountain, and even the Dali Dynasty is sparing no effort and using unprecedented means to try to kill you; what exactly are you doing this for?"

Yang Simu smiled brightly: "Because I feel that all the scholars in this world should take a good look at what Mr. Qi has done!"

"This Mr. Qi should not just fade away from the human world like this!"

Upon hearing this, Great Sword Immortal Wei Jin was somewhat curious: what kind of scholar was this "Mr. Qi" that Yang Simu spoke of?

A few minutes later, they found the most famous restaurant and ordered the restaurant's signature dish—Mandarin Duck Hotpot—and began to feast.

Although it is said that secular food from the foot of the mountains is completely dross to Qi Refining Cultivators from the mountains, with chaotic and unbearable Qi!

After all, in the eyes of mountain Cultivators, everywhere outside of the Grotto-Heavens and Blessed Lands is a place of filth and corruption!

After descending the mountain, one is immediately hit by foul Qi, Evil Qi, and Yin Qi!

Therefore, generally speaking, Qi Refining Cultivators from the mountains are very averse to descending the mountains.

Only when they reach the Realm of an Earth Immortal can they completely ignore it.

Of course, cultivation at the foot of the mountain is also indispensable, and it is not impossible to occasionally eat something to satisfy one's cravings.

For example, the Green-Clad Girl and the young girl Wang Zhu, their eyes lit up when they looked at the food in the pot.

Yang Simu was also eating with great satisfaction.

Only Great Sword Immortal Wei from the Wind and Snow Temple, seeing such a spectacle for the first time, found it hard to decide what to eat.

Just as Yang Simu used his chopsticks to pick up a piece of beef from the pot, a travel-worn man wearing a bamboo hat suddenly appeared outside the window of the private room!

A Liang adjusted the bamboo hat on his head and grinned.
