"You?" The girl was a little surprised. "The sword tomb tonight is very dangerous."
"I am the chief disciple," Tang Xin pointed at himself and said, "It is my responsibility to maintain the peace of Xuanling Sect."
Su Ling looked at her deeply.
"Okay," she said in a low voice, "Follow me and be careful. If you are scared, hide back in the cabin. The master's power remains here, which should be enough to protect you."
"understand!"
……
Came outside the wooden house.
The strange howling sounds became clearly audible, and many areas within sight were stained with a layer of dark green, which looked extremely strange and terrifying.
"It's a bit scary," Tang Xin said, "I wouldn't want to walk on this kind of road at night."
She looked back at the shivering swordsman girl hiding behind her and sighed.
I just came out of the wooden house, and I’m afraid it’s like this. How can I walk all the way to the sword tomb?
"You, why aren't you afraid at all?"
Su Ling asked stutteringly.
Why should you be afraid? If a ghost comes, just beat it and it will be over.
[Generating options...]
[Option 1: The sky is the blanket, the ground is the bed, and on the bed, you should do what you should do, and in line with the terrifying atmosphere, push Su Ling down directly.]

[Option 3: Open your arms to Su Ling and say to her, "Merge with me."]
[100% success rate, reward: a cup of spring water from Jingxin Peak.]
"..."
Tang Xin opened his arms to Su Ling.
"what?"
The girl looked at her in confusion.
"To protect you," Tang Xin replied, "I heard that vengeful spirits like girls with flat figures. If you merge with me, maybe they won't come after you."
"Dirty!"
[Current shyness value: 2.5]
However, after being interrupted by Tang Xin, Su Ling became much more energetic. He regrouped and went with her to the sword tomb on the top of Jingxin Peak.
From a distance, this place looked ominous.
Visible green mist condensed on the tombstones and did not disperse, rolling around. Mixed and harsh sounds continued to come out from the sword tomb.
"I want to go out……"
"Find me a young girl..."
"No, no, I like girls with bigger bodies..."
The sword is a weapon of killing. After being used for a long time, it is more easily corroded by negative emotions than other spiritual weapons.
These negative emotions, accumulated over the years, will turn into unconscious spirits, commonly known as vengeful spirits.
Ordinary vengeful spirits can only scare people in cemeteries and have no other abilities.
But this is a sect of immortal cultivators with abundant spiritual energy. The swords in the sword tomb are no ordinary items, and some even have traces of the existence of spirit weapons.
Their power cannot be underestimated.
"My master said," Su Ling held the spirit sword in both hands and stared at the front vigilantly, "there are many broken swords here, all of them were defeated by her..."
In the sword tomb, some spiritual swords were missing their hilts, some had only half of the sword body left, and some seemed complete but gave people a lifeless feeling. It was almost impossible to find a complete one.
"The defeated general of the Nascent Soul cultivator is also very dangerous to us," Tang Xin urged Dantian, ready to fight at any time, "How do we suppress this sword tomb?"
"There is a sword-washing pool in the center of the sword tomb," Su Ling said, "If you remove the resentment of those spirit swords, the sword tomb will be peaceful... But the spirit swords in the pool have an extraordinary origin."
"Okay, let's be careful..."
At the same time, in the sword washing pool of the sword tomb, a broken sword with only half of the blade left and the word "氵" engraved on it emitted a strange light...
Chapter 36 What Sword Immortal?
Enter the Sword Tomb.
Sensing the breath of a "living person", the dark green mist in the sword tomb immediately changed.
They began to twist and change into various shapes, surrounding the two girls and refusing to leave.
However, it seemed that because both of them were cultivators with certain cultivation, these vengeful spirits that could not even maintain their specific appearance did not dare to move forward rashly.
"Be careful. The wandering evil spirits can't hurt us, but if they can attach themselves to specific objects..."
call out!
Before Su Ling could finish his words, a broken spiritual sword suddenly attacked Tang Xin at such a speed that it was almost impossible to follow with the naked eye.
The broken sword was wrapped in a layer of dark green mist, and it looked not only powerful but also capable of causing other types of damage.
The sword-training girl cried out in her heart, "Oh no!" and wanted to raise her sword to block it, but she was unable to react in time.
Snapped.
Tang Xin waved his hand and knocked the broken sword to the ground.
"It's OK," she commented. "Nothing too serious."
This sword tomb looks terrifying, but after the purification of the spiritual energy of Jingxin Peak and the treatment of Elder Linghua, the degree of danger has been reduced a lot. It does not pose much threat to a cultivator at Tang Xin's level.
That being said, she is the best among the disciples of Xuanling Sect. For ordinary disciples, these attacks are still a bit dangerous.
"Let's go, keep moving forward."
Tang Xin said.
Su Ling glanced at her and led the way silently.
Very strong.
Even though she didn't like this woman very much, she had to admit that Tang Xin's strength was far beyond what she could compare to now.
This is not just due to the difference in realm. Her combat experience and combat awareness are both excellent. In the fights between cultivators, these things other than cultivation can often determine the outcome of the battle.
How did she do it?
Everyone knows that as the chief disciple, Tang Xin is very busy.
She had to inspect the sect and discipline the disciples, and report to the elders and complete the tasks assigned by the sect. When encountering difficulties, such as the provocation from Liuyan Mountain, the first person the sect thought of to solve the problem was her.
How could she find the time to practice when she was so busy? How hardworking and diligent does she need to be to achieve this?
"Watch your left side."
Tang Xin's reminder interrupted the girl's thoughts.
shhhhhh!
Several broken swords flew over, with much greater power than before.
Without waiting for Su Ling to react, fireball and water arrow techniques appeared in front of the two of them almost the next moment, knocking these dangerous objects down from the air.
Clean and neat.
Su Ling couldn't help but ask.
“How did you manage to hold on?”
"What?"
Tang Xin didn't quite understand what she meant.
"You have to complete daily tasks and practice at the same time. Don't you feel tired? Most people can't hold on, right?"
She said.
"It's okay, I don't feel tired..."
I persecute my fellow junior brothers and sisters, wander around the sect more often, and use the rewards issued by the system to improve my cultivation. Apart from the main storyline that makes me a little tired, everything else feels okay.
However, when Su Ling heard these words, their meaning changed.
She doesn’t feel tired even after doing this, is she an iron man?
If you have this kind of perseverance and be a good person, won’t your future be limitless?
"I don't know what you've been through," she patted Tang Xin's shoulder and said earnestly, "but please don't lose hope in life, in other people, and in this world."
"?"
The weakened sword tomb did not cause any trouble to Tang Xin. The only thing left was the annoying sound of ghosts screaming in his ears.
The two of them continued forward, and before long, they saw a somewhat dilapidated pool.
The entire pool is made of a large piece of bluestone, with intermittent lines remaining on the edge, and a depression is dug out at regular intervals to insert the spirit sword.
The Sword Washing Pool can use spiritual energy and other forces to weaken the resentment on the spiritual sword and restore its purity.
The spiritual swords that need to be thrown into the sword washing pool are usually not ordinary items.
"let me out……"
The dark green mist above the sword pool condensed into the shape of half a human body, and the voice it made sounded like that of a woman.
"I died so miserably..."
This sound, coupled with the ferocious movements, immediately made Su Ling's scalp tingle.
"Some spirit swords were owned by evil or demonic cultivators who were killed by their masters, so the resentment on the swords is particularly heavy."
