C1196 Endless Sword Mound
Ye Lan followed Yun Langqing all the way to the Ancient Sword Sect and entered the largest sword peak.
The other disciples of the Ancient Sword Sect were handed over to the other disciples of the sect to take care of them.
Within the ancient sword peak, in a forest of purple bamboos, Yun Langqing brought Ye Lan here.
"This purple bamboo forest was personally planted by Elder Gu Tian. Every single one of them is extremely tough, and they are all carved into bamboo swords. They are no weaker than ordinary divine weapons. In fact, this purple bamboo can even be used to forge an immortal sword with an extraordinary grade."
Walking in the purple bamboo forest, Yun Langqing said with a smile on his face.
Ye Lan nodded his head. He could feel that every single one of the purple bamboo trees was emitting a strong immortal energy. It wasn't any weaker than the Immortal Spirit Stone that Ye Lan had obtained. If he could cultivate here, he would be able to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Soon, Ye Lan followed Yun Langqing into the depths of the purple bamboo forest. There was a small pavilion inside. In the pavilion, there was an old man with white hair and beard. He was sitting cross-legged on a hassock with his eyes closed.
Ye Lan fixed his eyes and saw the white mist surrounding the old man. It was as sharp as a sword, and every strand of the white fog gave people a terrifying feeling. It seemed that if anyone touched it, they would be killed by the white fog in body and spirit.
"Disciple Yun Langqing greets Elder Gu Tian."
Yun Langqing stood outside the pavilion and bowed deeply to the white-haired old man.
"Is something the matter?"
The old man slowly opened his eyes and looked at Yun Langqing. His gaze also swept across Ye Lan.
The white fog that lingered around his body was swiftly sucked into his nose. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared completely.
"This brother is from Land of Myriad Rivers. He was entrusted by an old friend to come and pay a visit to you, Elder!"
Yun Langqing reported truthfully.
"You may leave now!"
Gu Tian waved his hand.
Yun Langqing bowed and left, leaving Ye Lan alone. He looked at Elder Gu Tian in silence.
"You have the smell of Sword God Conception on your body. It seems like it was given to you by Fei Yang, right?"
After a long time, Gu Tian broke the silence. He stared at Ye Lan with a gentle expression on his face.
Lu Feiyang was the last disciple he had ever been proud of in his life. He had been paying attention to Lu Feiyang's every move until recently. When he found out that Lu Feiyang had fallen in the Candle Dragon Mountain Range of Land of Myriad Rivers, Gu Tian fell into a state of grief. He had locked himself in the Purple Bamboo Forest all day long, trying to comprehend the Sword Arts.
"Junior Ye Lan greets senior Gu Tian."
Ye Lan bowed deeply. The old man in front of him was Lu Feiyang's master, so Ye Lan naturally trusted him. It wouldn't be a problem for him to tell him his name.
"There's no need for formalities. Let's go. Follow me to a place."
Gu Tian smiled faintly and flew into the sky.
Ye Lan did not hesitate and quickly followed.
The two of them flew together, all the way to the hillside of the Ancient Sword Peak.
On the hillside of the Ancient Sword Peak, there was a huge natural stalactite cave. The cave was very wide and took up a few miles of land.
The entrance of the cave was also very big, and it was dozens of feet tall. It was more than a thousand feet wide. Standing at the entrance of the cave, a cold wind blew in front of them. Apart from that, Ye Lan could also feel the cave. A sharp and powerful Sword Force could be felt coming from within the cave.
"What did you feel?"
Gu Tian asked with a smile.
"Very strong Sword Force. There are many Sword Intent, and each of them is different. They are as vast as the stars!"
Ye Lan replied truthfully.
Gu Tian smiled and stepped into the cave. Ye Lan followed closely behind.
As soon as he entered the cave, he saw many swords stabbed into the cave. There were countless of them.
Each sword contained a powerful Sword Intent, as if there were countless Sword Arts warriors guarding the cave.
"This is the restricted area of Ancient Sword Sect - the Endless Sword Mound! Countless divine swords were buried in it. They were all relics of the past generations of the Ancient Sword Sect. Each divine sword contained a trace of the Sword Dao when they were alive. The sword cultivators were meditating and comprehending here. It can significantly improve the Sword Arts Concept of a sword cultivator. "
Gu Tian looked at the countless divine swords in front of him and whispered to Ye Lan, who was standing beside him. He told Ye Lan about the origin of the Endless Sword Mound and the history of those divine swords.
"Senior, why did you bring me here?"
"It's not easy to comprehend the Sword God Conception. You need to make this ability stronger. In the past, Fei Yang had comprehended it here. The Boundless Sword Intent here will be helpful to you. Don't waste it."
Gu Tian smiled. His body slowly disappeared, leaving Ye Lan standing alone in the cave.
As he walked through the ancient Longsword, Ye Lan could clearly feel the Sword Intent contained in each of the swords. Each sword had a different Sword Intent, just like a thousand people with a thousand faces.
Everyone had different personalities, so naturally, there would be different Sword Arts, and the Sword Intent they comprehended would be very different.
Ye Lan could clearly feel the Sword Intent contained within these swords. Some were like a drizzle, some were like a long river, some were brutal and cruel, and some were cold and gloomy...
Every time he felt those Sword Intent, he would have an inexplicable image of what his master had experienced when he was still alive. He could feel the changes in his master's state of mind and his understanding of the Sword Arts.
Without any hesitation, Ye Lan found a huge stone platform and sat on it with his legs crossed. He closed his eyes and circulated the Sword God Conception.
As soon as his Sword God Conception was unleashed, countless divine swords containing the Sword Intent in the Endless Sword Mound started buzzing and vibrating. The Sword Intent contained in those divine swords actually turned into countless golden, red, orange, and purple mist. It kept pouring into Ye Lan's body. After that, it merged into Ye Lan's Sword God Conception. It helped Ye Lan's Sword God Conception grow stronger and stronger.
At the same time, as the Sword God Conception became stronger and stronger, Ye Lan's cultivation base and strength also broke through rapidly.
In the outside world, on the Ancient Sword Peak.
Gu Tian quietly sat on a mountain rock and looked into the distance, looking at the rolling clouds.
Beside him, a youth appeared beside Gu Tian. "Senior brother, how could you bring an outsider into our sect's important grounds?"
As the young man spoke, he sat beside Gu Tian and also looked into the distant sky. He looked at the rolling clouds and enjoyed the mountain wind that blew towards him.
"He's not an outsider."
Gu Tian said calmly.
"Just because he knows the Sword God Conception, you think he is another Lu Feiyang?"
"I have never let Feiyang down, so I can only use this opportunity to make it up to him.
For his sake, Feiyang was willing to sacrifice his life. It was enough to show that he had already regarded him as his successor.
Since he is the successor of Feiyang, he is a member of Ancient Sword Sect! "
Gu Tian explained.
"What nonsense is this? Senior brother, have you forgotten that Lu Feiyang is no longer a member of Ancient Sword Sect? "
The youth smiled bitterly.2
Since the day Lu Feiyang joined the Dark Alliance, the relationship between him and the Ancient Sword Sect had been completely severed.
"Did you really kick him out of the sect?"
Gu Tian looked at the young man beside him and said with a fake smile.
The young man smiled awkwardly.
"Quiet, don't let anyone hear you."
The youth made a shushing gesture.
"No matter what, I am still Feiyang's Martial Uncle, and he has the innate talent of the Sword Arts. He was the first one to comprehend the Sword God Conception. How could I bear to kick him out of the sect?"
The young man continued. His expression was blank, as if he was recalling the past.
Dark Alliance was the only major power in the Domain Of The Gods who dared to challenge the three inner families.
Whoever joined the Dark Alliance was going against the three inner families.
Back then, Lu Feiyang's resolute decision to join the Dark Alliance had caused a huge commotion. He was killed by the experts of the three inner families.
Gu Tian and this young man had no choice but to kick Lu Feiyang out of the sect in order to prevent their Ancient Sword Sect from being destroyed by the three inner families, which would lead to the end of their inheritance.
Of course, although Lu Feiyang was kicked out of the sect, Gu Ao, the current Sect Master of the Ancient Sword Sect, had secretly hidden Lu Feiyang's family name. He didn't kick Lu Feiyang out of the sect.
As long as his family name was still there, Lu Feiyang would always be a member of the Ancient Sword Sect.
"At that time, perhaps we really made a wrong decision. We should ally with the Dark Alliance!"
After a long time, the young Gu Ao let out a long sigh. When he thought about what had happened to his sect, he regretted making that decision even more.
"It has been so many years. What's the point of saying all this?"
Gu Tian said with a calm expression.
"Now, the only thing we can do is to make up for that Ye Lan.
Firstly, he is a disciple of Feiyang, and secondly, he is the Chosen One, the future leader of Dark Alliance.
It's not scary for a man to do something wrong, as long as he knows how to turn over a new leaf! "
