Looking at Yan Feiling, who had fainted on the ground, no one had any sympathy for her.
Not a single person in the crowd showed any sympathy. Instead, they all had carefree and gloating expressions on their faces.
Over the past few days, this young girl had always had her nose up in the air.
Relying on her cultivation at the Life-and-Death Gate and the Sect Master's Token, she was arrogant and despotic.
Now that they had seen Ye Gu Chen teach him a lesson, all of the Inner Yard disciples felt happy, as if they had vented their anger.
"As expected of Senior Brother Ye. He crushed the Minor Gate like it was an ant."
While the inner yard disciples were happy, they were also amazed by Ye Guchen's strength. They couldn't help but admire him even more.
At this moment, the Divine Condor and Blacky ran out from the courtyard.
"Haha, Brat Ye, you did well. This silly girl needs to be taught a lesson!" The Divine Condor laughed.
Ye Guchen went up and found that the Divine Condor and Blacky had been sealed.
Ye Guchen raised his hand, and his True Qi surged out and broke the seal.
"This place is rich in Spiritual Qi. Bring Su Jianshi and the others back," Ye Guchen said casually.
"Brother Ye, then she …" Chu Qingchi glanced at the unconscious Yan Feiling.
"Throw her anywhere." Ye Guchen didn't even look at her.
Chu Qingchi nodded. With Ye Guchen's lesson, Yan Feiling would probably restrain herself.
At least for now, she didn't dare to provoke Ye Guchen.
Afterward, Ye Guchen brought Su Jianshi and Xue 'er back to the courtyard.
After taking many Quasi-Sage Pills and healing pills, Su Jianshi finally woke up.
Seeing Ye Guchen in front of her, she naturally missed him.
Xue 'er also woke up, but she was in a daze. She seemed to have forgotten that she had turned into the Heaven Weeping Witch and killed the white-robed old man.
"Big Brother, where is this? Where are Sister Qiqiao and the others?" Xue 'er asked in a daze.
"This is the Sword Sect's Pagoda Forest. Qiqiao went to a very safe place," Ye Guchen said.
"Is that so?" Xue 'er nodded.
She had no memory of her transformation into a witch at all.
Ye Guchen thought to himself. Xue 'er's identity was too mysterious.
As for her identity as the Heaven Weeping Witch, it was obvious that she absolutely could not reveal it.
Ye Guchen thought to himself that he would definitely not let Xue Er transform into the Heaven's Weeping Witch form in the future.
"Big Brother, Xue 'er … is hungry …" Xue' er pouted her pink lips, her little face slightly red, and her little hand clutched her little stomach.
She looked rather adorable.
"Okay …" Ye Guchen couldn't help but laugh.
After Su Jianshi and Xue 'er woke up, their injuries stabilized.
Ye Guchen finally relaxed.
He was prepared to challenge the Sword Sect Pagoda again.
This was because the complete version of the Sword Sect's ultimate technique, the Reincarnation Sword Lotus, was on the ninth level.
Even on the eighth level, there was only an incomplete 72-leaf Death Sword Lotus.
Ye Guchen had previously guessed that in order to enter the ninth level, apart from strength, one would also need the qualifications of the Sword Sect Echelon.
At that time, Ye Guchen had the qualifications to join the Echelon, but he did not have the strength.
But now, Ye Guchen's strength was comparable to a Great Profound Martial Realm expert, so he had the qualifications to explore the ninth level.
The news of Ye Guchen heading to the Sword Sect Pagoda also came from the inner court.
Many disciples came to watch.
They were very curious about whether Ye Guchen would be able to enter the ninth level.
Su Jianshi, Xue 'er, Yan Wushuang, Ji Ling, Chu Qingchi, Ye Xie, and almost all the disciples of the inner court had gathered in front of the Sword Sect Pagoda.
Wind Sweeping Pavilion had granted Ye Guchen the qualifications to enter the Sword Sect Pagoda as he wished.
Ye Guchen did not hesitate and directly entered the Sword Sect Pagoda.
Soon, the first level lit up.
Following that, the second and third levels lit up one after another.
It did not take long for him to reach the eighth level.
Seeing his speed, Ye Guchen's expression changed.
Yan Wushuang and the others were stunned.
Ye Gu Chen's speed was not as fast as this last time.
The most important thing was that the difficulty of Ye Gu Chen's challenge was not on the same level as theirs.
"Back then, I actually wanted to compete with him in the Sword Sect Pagoda."
Yan Wushuang recalled the time when she was not convinced by Ye Guchen and wanted to challenge him to a duel.
Now that she thought about it, she had overestimated herself.
"This guy is a monster …" Yan Wushuang couldn't help but mutter.
While everyone outside was shocked by Ye Guchen's speed in the Sword Sect Pagoda.
Ye Guchen also arrived at the eighth level. It was a world of swords filled with tens of thousands of swords.
This was also the place where Wind Sweeping Pavilion went into seclusion all year round to comprehend the unity of man and sword.
The last time he came, Ye Guchen did not have the slightest comprehension of the unity of man and sword.
But now, Ye Guchen's comprehension of the unity of man and sword had gradually deepened.
After refining the Enlightenment Ancient Tree, Ye Guchen came to this world of swords and gained a deeper understanding.
"Using the body as the sword, controlling the sword with the heart, and the sword will follow the heart …"
Ye Guchen already had the demonic talent of the Sword Demon, and he had the support of the Tree of Enlightenment.
With the help of the Enlightenment Ancient Tree, his comprehension could be called monstrous.
Ye Guchen was not in a hurry to challenge the ninth level. Instead, he used this world of swords to comprehend the unity of man and sword.
Feng Sweeping Pavilion's figure appeared in the distance with a faint smile on his face.
"His comprehension has improved by a large margin and his comprehension of the unity of man and sword has deepened."
"This is good news. If Gu Zun has comprehended the Supreme Blade to perfection, I'm afraid that only the unity of man and sword can contend against him," Feng Sweeping Pavilion muttered to himself.
One had to know that Yu Bufan, who fought against him back then, had only comprehended thirty percent of the Supreme Blade.
With Gu Zun's dedication to the Supreme Blade, if he really comprehended it to perfection …
It would be difficult for him to find a match in the younger generation.
While Ye Guchen was comprehending the unity of man and sword on the eighth level of the Sword Sect Pagoda …
Yan Feiling, who had fainted, had finally woken up.
When she opened her eyes and saw the dilapidated houses around her, she almost vomited blood.
"Damn it, he actually left this princess in this place!" Yan Feiling was injured.
The house was extremely dilapidated and there were even some bugs crawling on the bed.
There were even some that crawled onto Yan Feiling's body, causing her to let out an inhuman shriek.
"Ye Guchen, you will regret treating me like this!"
Yan Feiling took out some recovery medicine from her origin ring and swallowed it. After recovering some of her strength, she hurriedly walked out of the house.
At the same time, she took out a jade slip to send a message. A brief moment later, joy appeared on her face.
"They're coming! That's great! With Big Brother Shaotang's strength at the Grand Threshold, even Ye Guchen won't be a match for him!" Yan Feiling's eyes were filled with admiration.
It was hard to imagine that someone as unruly as her would reveal such an expression.
From this, one could see how charming her Big Brother Shaotang was.
Ye Guchen stayed on the eighth level of the Sword Sect Pagoda for more than ten days.
In these ten days, Ye Guchen's comprehension of the unity of man and sword had soared.
If it was said that he only had some insights before, then he had now reached the brink of enlightenment.
The seed of the sword heart in his heart also showed signs of sprouting.
The seed of the sword heart was formed from the Myriad Sword Codex. The first volume cultivated the sword vein, while the second volume condensed the sword heart.
The seed of the sword heart had taken root, which meant that Ye Guchen had comprehended the Enlightened Sword Heart.
The seed of the sword heart had sprouted, which meant that he had comprehended the unity of man and sword.
Ye Guchen was only a short distance away from the unity of man and sword.
After more than ten days of sitting cross-legged, Ye Gu Chen opened his eyes.
There was sword qi flickering in his eyes.
Although he hadn't fully comprehended the unity of man and sword, he wasn't far from it.
Ye Guchen was looking forward to how strong he would be after comprehending the unity of man and sword.
After all, Feng Manlou had relied on the unity of man and sword to possess strength comparable to the sixth layer of the Divine Dwelling Realm.
It was simply heaven-defying.
