Somewhere along the edge of the Yunlan Mountains, there is a valley covered by thick clouds and mist all day long.

The valley is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and there was no entrance at first, but there was a sword cultivator with great powers who split the mountain on one side of the valley in half with one sword, forming a narrow entrance.

Later, the master lived in seclusion here and studied swordsmanship here. Many swordsmans came from all over the world, either to exchange or seek teachers to practice swords, making the valley famous.

The peak cut by the sword is like two sharp swords that are straight up into the sky and penetrate into the sky, so this valley is also called the Tianjian Valley. Over time, the master who practiced in the valley is also called the Tianjian Old Man.

One day after they parted with Feng Ming and the shopkeeper, Li Muran came outside the Tianjian Valley.

With his cultivation and supernatural powers, he could naturally easily fly over the mountains around the valley and land directly in the valley. However, this practice is a very disrespectful act in the world of immortal cultivation. In order to show respect for the master of the valley, even a cultivator with a high level of cultivation would rather enter the valley from the narrow entrance.

"I didn't expect that there were many thatched stone houses outside the Tianjian Valley. Could it be that many monks practiced here?" Before Li Muran entered the valley, he saw many relatively simple temporary caves outside the valley.

As soon as Li Muran landed here, he was about to walk into the valley when suddenly two cultivators from the Yuanshen stage flashed out at the entrance, blocking Li Muran's way.

"What do you mean by two seniors?" Li Muran asked frowned. He did not use the Phantom magic power, and the cultivation level he showed was still the peak of the late stage of the true body, and he had not yet truly advanced to the Yuanshen stage. And the two people who blocked the way were both early stage of the Yuanshen and mid-stage cultivation level, so he naturally wanted to match his previous generations.

"Why are you so unaware of the rules? Are you the one who wants to enter Tianjian Valley? "One of the middle-aged men said unhappily.

"What rules?" Li Muran was stunned. "There is no restrictions at the entrance of Tianjian Valley. It is obvious that monks from all sides are welcome to come, and there is no restrictions."

The middle-aged man said, "There is no limit on Tianjian Valley, but we have it! There are countless sword cultivators who come to Tianjian Valley every year to learn swords and become disciples. If everyone breaks directly into Tianjian Valley, Tianjian Valley will sooner or later be overcrowded. Even if Senior Tianjian is good to us, he will not be able to give guidance. If this disturbs the tranquility of Senior Tianjian and let Senior Tianjian avoid us, it will be even more sinful!"

"So, those who want to learn swords have already set unwritten rules. Only one monk can enter the valley to become a disciple every month. At the end of the month, we will hold a selection competition and select one person to enter."

Li Muran frowned: "There are such rules. I don't know. Please forgive me for your seniors. I wonder how the only place is selected every month?"

"We are all here to learn swords, and the selection method is of course to compare swords!" said the middle-aged man: "We do not compare our cultivation strength, but only compete with our swordsmanship. Of course, the higher our cultivation, the easier it is to comprehend the skill of skill, and the deeper our attainments, and we will always take a lot of advantage."

"Sword comparison!" Li Muran's heart sank. He was not a sword cultivator, and he had no deep understanding of swordsmanship, not to mention that there were many cultivators in the Yuanshen stage here. If he wanted to win the selection, he would probably not be able to enter the Tianjian Valley.

Li Muran had to withdraw from Tianjian Valley for the time being, but he did not give up.

Since it is difficult to enter the valley from the main entrance, I have to quietly climb over the mountains and fly directly into the valley.

After nightfall, Li Muran took out a night talisman and stuck it on his body, then slowly approached Tianjian Valley.

Outside the Tianjian Valley, he found several monks wandering around and inspecting from afar.

"These sword cultivators are really meticulous. They even guard the surroundings of Tianjian Valley, so that they will not allow idle people to approach Tianjian Valley." Li Muran said in his heart.

From this point of view, the old man Tianjian has a very high status in the minds of these sword cultivators, so they consciously organized themselves to guard the valley for the old man Tianjian, so as not to let too many monks enter the valley, so as not to disturb the old man Tianjian’s cultivation.

After careful investigation, Li Muran found that the sword cultivator guarding the west was a cultivator in the true form and had a relatively low level of cultivation.

"Just break through here!" Li Muran's heart moved, and then slowly flew to the west.

His night hidden talisman is quite clever, and after each use, as long as the Yuanqi Talisman is used in time to replenish the Yuanqi Talisman, it can be used repeatedly many times. A night hidden talisman can be used repeatedly at least dozens of times, which is very convenient. The disadvantage of this talisman is that it can only be used at night, and the hidden effect during the day is very poor and almost useless.

Under the cover of Ye Yin Talisman, Li Muran slowly flew by hundreds of feet away from the true sword cultivator, but the latter did not notice it at all.

Not long after, Li Muran flew over the mountain and entered the Tianjian Valley.

The heaven and earth in the valley are full of vitality and full of spiritual energy. They gather in the valley without dispersing. It is obviously an excellent spiritual vein. I believe that the old man Tianjian also liked this and chose to practice here.

As soon as Li Muran landed in the Sky Sword Valley, a sword light immediately flew towards him.

The sword light narrowed and turned into a young sword-wielding man in green clothes, with a rather elegant posture.

"Another unruly guy!" The young man looked at Li Muran and smiled slightly: "Look at your low cultivation level, you can actually avoid the guards of the monks outside the valley, which is quite capable."

Seeing that the other party had no intention of blame, Li Muran felt a little relieved and bowed respectfully: "Senior is a disciple of Senior Tianjian?"

The young man shook his head: "This swordsman was only allowed to practice swords in the Tianjian Valley, but he was not blessed to be accepted as a disciple by the Tianjian Senior."

"So that's it." Li Muran nodded slightly and asked again: "How long has it been since Senior entered Tianjian Valley?"

The young man was stunned when he heard this. He raised his head, as if he was recalling the past. A moment later he said leisurely: "It has been more than seventy years. Well, when this swordsman entered the Tianjian Valley, he vowed to achieve great success in his sword skills. Who knew that after entering the Tianjian Valley, he realized that the sword skills were profound and profound, and he probably would not be able to reach the so-called realm of great success in his life."

"Have you ever seen Senior Tianjian? Is it difficult to see him?" Li Muran asked.

"Of course it's difficult!" said the young man: "The sword cultivators who can enter Tianjian Valley every year, but there are only dozens of people. Some of them come in from the front of the valley entrance through selection, but more of them are unruly guys like you."

"If it is the former, there is a certain chance to meet the senior of Tianjian; but the latter will often be blocked at the level of the "Sword Test Stone". If you cannot pass the test of the "Sword Test Stone", you will be immediately invited out of Tianjian Valley."

"Even if you really pass the test and get summoned by Senior Tianjian, it will be difficult to get into his eyes. Among the 100 sword cultivators who entered the valley, twenty or thirty people were lucky enough to see Senior Tianjian. More than 90% of them had only this fate. After receiving a few words of guidance from Senior Tianjian, they would leave the Tianjian Valley. There are only a few cultivators who can be appreciated by Senior Tianjian and allowed to stay in the valley to practice. As for those who were accepted by Senior Tianjian, it is extremely rare. Senior Tianjian has only accepted twelve disciples. Although some of these twelve senior brothers have not had too high cultivation, they are all sword-refining geniuses who are shocked by the ancient and modern times, and their understanding and mind are excellent."

Li Muran was shocked when he heard this: "It turns out that it is so difficult to stay in Tianjian Valley! If you can stay here to practice swords, you must have a very deep attainment in swordsmanship!"

The young man shook his head and sighed: "Senior Tianjian once gave a message to him. The most important thing in practicing sword techniques is understanding, and the second is diligence. This swordsman is more diligent, but his understanding is not enough, so he is afraid that it will be difficult to make a breakthrough in swordsmanship. This swordsman can only stay in Tianjian Valley for a hundred years. If he still cannot have an enlightenment, he may leave here."

"The so-called man is determined to defeat nature. If you continue to persist, you will definitely make a breakthrough." Li Muran comforted him. This young man should have the cultivation level of the middle stage of the Yuanshen, but he has no airs and is easy to talk. Li Muran has a good impression of him.

"I hope I can accept your good words!" The young man smiled, and he suddenly changed the topic: "Are you ready? This swordsman will take you to meet someone."

"Who do you see?" Li Muran asked curiously.

"Sword Idiot." said the young man: "He is the third disciple of Senior Tianjian, and he has been obsessed with swordsmanship all his life. As long as a cultivator enters Tianjian Valley, he will practice sword skills with him."

"I am not the opponent of the disciples of Senior Tianjian, and there is no need to compete. I just admit defeat!" Li Muran said hurriedly.

"Nonsense! So far, no one has ever entered the valley to win the sword magic!" said the young man: "Several years ago, a young man of similar cultivation to your age broke into the Tianjian Valley. He just insisted on resisting three moves under the sword magic. Afterwards, he was regarded as a genius by senior Tianjian and accepted as the twelfth disciple."

"Since you will definitely lose, why do you have to meet Jian Chi?" Li Muran asked curiously.

The young man smiled slightly: "It is unlikely that I can see Senior Tianjian taking action personally. Even if I witness the opportunity of those disciples using the sword technique with my own eyes, it is quite valuable. It is rare that Jianqi has a strange temper. As long as he is a new face who has just entered the Tianjian Valley, he is willing to compete with him. Therefore, this swordsman wants to seize this opportunity and see the sword technique used by Jianqi, which may be helpful to the sword enlightenment in the Xiaxia."

"So that's it!" Li Muran smiled bitterly. No wonder this young man gave him so enthusiastic advice. It turned out that he just wanted to use him to let Jian Chi reveal his sword skills.

The young man reminded: "You can do your best later. The sword cynical sword technique can be used as you please, and you will stop when you click, and you will never hurt your life. The stronger the magical power you show, the stronger the sword technique he will use. Otherwise, he will slash out with a sword light and send you away."

As soon as he finished speaking, a white shadow suddenly flashed over the heads of the two of them, turning into a smiling white-haired boy.
