Chapter 617 Strolling in the Garden

At the same time, on the top floor of Jiantong Pavilion, a white-haired old man was sitting on the ground, observing Gu Yeming on the bottom floor with great interest through his spiritual sense.

He is the Grand Elder of Tianjian Sect, the most powerful person in the universe - Sword God Wen Jianxin.

"Is he that Gu Yeming?"

"I didn't sense any fluctuations in sword energy... I was completely relying on defense to resist Jianhen's attack."

"Also, did he really comprehend the sword techniques stored in the sword box? How could he pick it up and put it down after just two seconds?"

"How strange, how strange."

He muttered to himself while constantly observing Gu Yeming's actions.

In less than five minutes, Gu Yeming had learned all the basic sword techniques.

Next is the second floor.

Gu Yeming looked up at the center, where there was a rather simple-looking wooden staircase.

Obviously, it was the wooden stairs leading to the second floor.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Gu Yeming did not waste any time. He once again withstood the attacks from a large number of sword marks and walked to the wooden stairs at a very fast pace.

Just as he was about to lift his leg and walk upwards, the entire Jiantong Pavilion suddenly shook violently.

The suspended sword-shaped ball of light began to flicker wildly, and the sword marks on the ground oozed a dark red light.

[Special Area: Jiantong Pavilion has triggered the second level qualification level]

Gu Yeming raised his eyebrows and looked at the system prompt box in front of him, and he understood that in addition to the pass token, he also had to pass the qualification level.

Of course, there was still no ripple in his heart.

[Warning! The Ten Thousand Swords Return Formation has been released]

[Clearance conditions: Use sword intent and any insights related to kendo]

[Hidden Condition: Just rush in and it's done!]

Swish swish!

Countless sword energies gathered from all directions, but Gu Yeming did not dodge or evade, allowing the sword energy to attack him.

Psionic energy surged around Gu Yeming, and ripples appeared on the psionic shield under the impact of the sword energy. The seemingly sharp sword energy chopped on the shield, leaving only small spider-web-like cracks at most.

As soon as each crack appeared, it was instantly repaired by the surging psionic energy, disappearing like ripples on the water.

Wen Jianxin, who had been observing from the top floor, frowned slightly and tapped the ground unconsciously with the wooden stick in his hand.

He had lived for tens of thousands of years and had seen countless sword cultivators resolve sword mark tests with exquisite sword intent, but he had never seen such a "brutal" way of breaking through.

Although he knew that Gu Yeming's sword path was not the way to cultivate immortality, this way of breaking through the levels still made him feel astonished.

Good unpretentious way.

"interesting."

Wen Jianxin stroked his beard and chuckled, the interest in his eyes becoming more intense.

He noticed that there was not a trace of sword intent flowing from Gu Yeming's body, but he was able to withstand the test in such a domineering manner. This kind of confidence was definitely not possessed by ordinary people.

Considering the opponent's strength, I'm afraid the second level can be easily handled.

I'm really looking forward to it. I wonder what the scene will be like when the other party reaches the top floor.

Gu Yeming walked steadily, and every step he took caused the ground to tremble slightly.

When the sword energy came at him like a rainstorm, he was too lazy to even raise his hand to block it, allowing the sword energy to explode on the surface of the shield, splashing out tiny sparks.

Then, he increased the defensive strength of the psionic shield. Those sword blades that should have been deadly were now like children's toys. They could only leave shallow white marks on the psionic shield and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The attack, which was rated at S-level at most, was no different from a child's toy to him now.

The first level of attack was not even as good as a tickle, so for the second level, he wanted to see what other means could stop him.

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming came to the second floor.

The layout of the second floor was no different from that of the first floor, but he could clearly sense that the sword marks on the second floor seemed to be very different from those on the first floor.

He just stood there and observed for five seconds before walking towards a sword box.

hum-

The moment he stepped into a sword mark, Gu Yeming felt a powerful sword intent surging from under his feet, like an invisible chain, trying to restrain his movements.

He frowned slightly, and black and red air currents surged around him, trying to break free from the restraint of the sword intent.

Wen Jianxin was watching Gu Yeming's every move on the top floor, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

The sword intent contained in the sword marks of the second layer is far more powerful than that of the first layer. In addition to attack, there are also various kinds of binding sword intent.

If Gu Yeming wants to move forward, he has to find a solution.

At this time, Gu Yeming seemed to have noticed something strange. He could feel that the sword intent contained in these sword marks was not a simple attack, but a test of his understanding of the way of the sword. If he could not pass the test, these sword marks would continue to put pressure on him and drag him to the spot.

Ah.

Gu Yeming had a blank expression on his face as he gradually exerted his strength. He ignored the heavy pressure of the sword intent on himself and continued to walk towards a sword box at the speed of an ordinary person.

Seeing this, Wen Jianxin on the top floor couldn't help but smile helplessly.

He knew it.

Swish! ! !

Extremely sharp sword energy suddenly attacked from all directions, accompanied by piercing screams.

[Ice Armor]

Gu Yeming raised his eyebrows. To be on the safe side, he did not choose to rely solely on the psionic shield this time, but added an extra layer of ice armor.

An ice-white shield mixed with a lot of cold wind instantly wrapped around the body and mixed with the psionic shield.

boom!

A large amount of sword energy slammed into the shield, causing a series of crisp sounds. Ice chips flew from the surface of the frozen armor and it began to vibrate, but there was still no sign of damage.

Oh?

Looking at the scene in front of him, Gu Yeming raised his brows and immediately became interested.

The sword energy of the second level is far superior to that of the first level, and its intensity has increased significantly.

If the power of the sword energy of the first layer is at most S-level, then the sword energy of the second layer is at the level of a full-strength attack from a disaster-level powerhouse.

Gu Yeming didn't feel strange about this.

He could also guess the purpose of setting up Jiantong Pavilion. It was just to allow the disciples in the sect to pass the levels through their understanding of the way of the sword. If they wanted to pass the levels by force, they had to bear the corresponding price.

Each sword energy is as powerful as a full-strength attack from a Calamity-level warrior. It is obvious that the purpose is to make the test takers give up and pass the test honestly by legitimate means.

But...

Thinking of this, Gu Yeming chuckled and continued to perform the same scene as on the first floor.

He endured these sword energies that were enough to kill ordinary disaster-level strongest people, opened the sword boxes one by one like strolling in the garden, and learned all the sword techniques contained in them.

Within ten minutes, he had completely learned the second level of swordsmanship.

Gu Yeming looked at the wooden stairs leading to the third floor, which was the top floor, and his eyes became a little more serious.

Since the second layer is so strong...

Then it is obvious that the third level of the sword mark test has reached the dividing line level.
