Four days later.

Qin Tianji's figure appeared again outside the courtyard of Xingyu Sword Emperor.

This time, his arrival did not attract Yan Tianqi's attention anymore. Yan Tianqi had returned to the quiet room of the courtyard, isolating all contact with the outside world. With the help of the unique cultivation environment here, he focused on reaching a higher level, and there was a tendency to not give up until the true fire was ignited.

With the experience of the last time, Qin Tianji waited for less than half an hour and had already broken through the guardian light curtain outside the courtyard and entered the courtyard.

"Now, there are two months left before the closing of Shenxu Holy Mountain...it's time to ignite the true fire."

Although practicing swordsmanship and body skills are also very important for his strength improvement, the outside world is currently a hundred times more vital energy. It is a waste of resources to use such a good environment to improve his cultivation without controlling his ability.

"First replenish your own qi and blood."

After coming to the cultivation quiet room, Qin Tianji took out a ferocious beast inner pill and swallowed it down.

In four days, he killed a total of seven lord-level ferocious beasts. The inner alchemy of these lord-level ferocious beasts replenished the qi and blood in their bodies, which was enough to ignite the true fire.

At the speed of digesting an inner alchemy of a ferocious beast in two days, half a month later, the qi and blood in Qin Tianji's body had reached a peak, not only surpassing the ordinary first-level sword master, but also reaching a level that is no less than any second-level sword master. I am afraid that even those old strong men who have been immersed in the sword master realm for decades may not be above him.

After all, the true essence has a limit on the quenching effect of the physical body. After reaching that limit, the quenching effect will become weaker and even disappear. Except for those body refiners who specialize in spending a lot of energy to temper the true essence, most sword masters, physical strength and qi and blood concentration, are at the same level.

"Qi and blood... have completely met the standard, and next... ignite the real fire!"

Qin Tianji felt the boiling power of qi and blood in his body, and a glimmer flashed in his eyes.

The next moment, the true energy vortex in the body rotated rapidly, and the boiling blood was constantly excited and poured into the center of the vortex. In the center of the vortex, a hot energy was constantly brewing.

"Real fire, ignite!"

When the energy in the center of the vortex brewed to the extreme, with a bang, it burned up and turned into a pure true fire, burning in the center of the vortex.

He had experience in lighting the true fire twenty days ago, but because of insufficient qi and blood, he failed to advance to the third-level swordsman. However, this time, all three spirits, energy and spirit met the standards, and igniting the true fire was completely natural.

"This is true fire."

Qin Tianji felt the flame in his body that was burning completely from essence, blood, true energy, and mind as nutrients, and a burst of heat in his heart.

Real fire!

Third-level sword master!

Song Yunjin, Zhao Hanqing, and Wanxia County Marquis, who were so arrogant and invincible in front of him, were all unable to reach this level.

Perhaps his immersion in the third-level sword master was deeper than that of Qin Tianji, but he could not deny the fact that the two were indeed in the same realm.

"True fire requires the cultivation of the essence, blood, true energy, mind, a third-level sword master. The true fire lasts for a long time, which cannot last for more than one minute, otherwise it will cause the essence, blood, true energy, and mind. Only when the cyclone in the body can independently produce the true fire flame, the energy of the true fire dissipates will dissipate in the true energy vortex, and then the true energy vortex recondenses, so that the two can form a cycle, which can last for three minutes, five minutes, or even eight minutes... But generally speaking, ten minutes is also the limit of the third-level sword master... This is also why it often takes more than ten years or even decades to temper a sword spirit weapon. Unless you reach the realm of the great sword master, the true energy, qi, blood, and mind are integrated, and do not distinguish between each other, true fire can burst out from the true energy, and then the true energy can be inexhaustible and the true fire will not be extinguished."

Qin Tianji recalled all kinds of true fire in his mind, and the true fire in his body gradually dissipated, as if he wanted to penetrate into the true energy vortex.

This is the exaggeration from an ordinary third-level sword master to a third-level sword master.

You must independently concentrate your essence, blood, true energy, and mind, and spend a lot of effort to stimulate the true fire. Although it can also be called a third-level sword master, it is sometimes called a late-stage sword master. However, if you can stimulate the true fire from the true energy vortex just through the true energy vortex with a thought, it is the peak of the sword master.

When you reach the peak of the sword master, as long as you understand the secret of the fusion of essence, blood and true essence, you can temper your own essence, blood and true essence, so that the two can be fused and refined for blood.

Blood refining is equivalent to the liquefaction of the true qi in the great swordsman's body.

The true energy in the great swordsman's body began to liquefy and was called a quasi-sword master. When the true energy and essence and blood in the body began to be refined, it was called stepping into the great swordsman's realm with half a foot.

Among the people Qin Tianji had met in Wanxia County, except for the Suluo River, which was unknown in the depth, only Jiang Daowu, the lord of Rihui City, was in this state.

"Scatter the true fire in the vortex... so that the true fire and the true essence vortex form a cycle, reducing internal friction to the lowest..."

With his powerful spirit, Qin Tianji constantly controlled the true fire to dissipate and condense.

This process not only consumes extremely severe true energy, but also causes loss of qi and blood.

However, the problem of qi and blood loss has been properly solved after Qin Tianji moved two lord-level corpses from the space ring.

And the true energy consumes...

Qin Tianji may lack other things now, but there is absolutely no shortage of medicines to supplement true energy.

The most common ones in Sima Wuhen’s space bag are various elixirs that restore true energy.

Three days, five days, eight days, ten days, half a month...

With repeated attempts and failures, through continuous analysis of No. 2, the connection between the true fire in Qin Tianji's body and the true energy vortex in his body has become deeper and deeper.

After the 25th day, the true fire in his body suddenly dissipated and burned again under Qin Tianji's thought.

Although it is mainly because Qin Tianji's spirit is too strong and has huge thoughts, being able to reignite the true fire that has been dispersed in the true essence is a decisive progress in itself.

Based on this decisive progress, Qin Tianji consolidated for another five days, and finally allowed the true fire in his body to completely reach the state of being burned and extinguished by his heart and moving as he wished.

"Bang!"

After a slight snap of his fingers, a bright red flame as red as blood had already burned out from Qin Tianji's fingertips.

This flame is completely tempered by Qin Tianji's essence, blood, true essence, and mind. It is equivalent to the extension of his body. Just by turning your mind, you can turn this flame into any shape.

"Bang!"

With Qin Tianji's finger on his hand, this true fire had fallen on a top-quality sword he took out from the storage ring.

Under the burning of the true fire, Qin Tianji could clearly feel the impurities in this supreme sword, which were gradually tempered. If it could continue and tempered for three or five days, the impurities in this supreme sword would be completely removed. If he spent another month or two to refine some materials for spiritual refining, he could easily temper the supreme sword into a quasi-spirit sword.

"The strength of the quasi-spirited sword depends on the spiritual material added... Some quasi-spirited swords are so fragile that they can collide with them head-on without damage, while some quasi-spirited swords are so strong that even true spiritual swords are difficult to cut off..."

Although the sword master who ignits the true fire can temper spiritual weapons, if you want to temper spiritual weapons, don’t you need to work hard and pour countless essence, blood, true energy, and mind?

For a swordsman, refining a spirit sword not only takes a long time, but also greatly affects the cultivation of cultivators because of the real fire that is constantly activated and the energy consumed. Therefore, more swordsmans will choose to refine a quasi-spirited sword, which is also the reason why the number of quasi-spirited swords and quasi-spirited weapons on the market is much higher than that of real quasi-spirited swords and spiritual weapons.

Only those strong masters of great swordsmen, whose energy and spirit are combined, can burst out true fire in their true essence, and the difficulty of refining spiritual weapons is greatly reduced, will they abandon the quasi-spirited weapons and turn to refine real spiritual weapons.

After taking back the true fire, Qin Tianji temporarily ended his cultivation and wandered around the courtyard of Xingyu Sword Emperor.

Most of the things from Xingyu Sword Emperor have been taken away, but there are still many unusable books left here.

Those books tell the customs and cultures, teach the refining formations, describe the wonders of the world, and have some casual life insights and daily experiences.

These books are not worth mentioning to the Xingyu Sword Emperor who was promoted to the imperial level at that time, but they are quite precious to Qin Tianji, who is only a third-level sword master.

Whether it is customs, weapon refining formations, world landscapes, etc., it will be of great help to Qin Tianji broaden his horizons and understand the world more clearly.

With these books, Qin Tianji understood for the first time that there was such a vast world outside the Kingdom of the Great Xia Kingdom and the six southeastern countries.

"The six southeastern countries share a Shenxu Academy. All the geniuses in the six countries will gather in the academy to compete for the few assessment quotas to go to the Shenxu Sect in order to join the Shenxu Sect... But under the Shenxu Sect, there are 108 branches of this level. According to the number of disciples admitted to the Shenxu Sect in each branch every year, the quotas have varying. Some academies allocated hundreds of assessment quotas every year... And those students, almost every class, will send one or two peerless geniuses who have practiced to the great sword master level in the academy... It is said that some students in the academy will alarm the true disciples and elders of the Shenxu Sect during their academy, so that those elders will travel thousands of miles to come to that branch, take them away, and take them away as disciples..."

Thinking back at the relevant descriptions of these materials in my mind, Qin Tianji couldn't help but sigh: "These are the real geniuses. The Shenxu Academy in the six Southeast countries has only been established for more than 300 years. The foundation and teaching power are far from comparable to those branches that have been established for thousands of years or even tens of thousands of years."

The college that has been established for tens of thousands of years has trained many genius students for the Shenxu Sect. These students have become disciples of the Shenxu Sect. After thousands of years of practice, there are always some people who can grow into true disciples, elders, holy sons, great elders, and supreme elders. These disciples are moved by the grace of their alma mater to train them. When many college resources are allocated, they will naturally have some inclination, allowing those academies to obtain more resources.
