Chapter 289

Li Shiyin went towards the Mountain and River Sword, she felt a force guiding her, she did not resist and got closer and closer to the Mountain and River Sword. Suddenly her vision blurred and she arrived at a place with picturesque mountains and clear waters.

In front of her was a big, clear river, behind her was a majestic, tall mountain. On the other side of the river was also a mountain range, one mountain connecting to another, extending endlessly into the distance.

She looked up at the sky, it was murky gray chaos.

It was evident that Lu Junxing's Sword Qi World was very incomplete. Although the river flowed, it had no beginning or end, unclear where it came from or where it went. The mountain had flowers, grass and trees, but they did not seem alive, appearing no different from the mud on the ground and rocks on the mountain.

This was a world without logic or life.

But...

This was still just the Sword Qi World of a Foundation Building cultivator!

This was undoubtedly a world, at least a space with substance.

Li Shiyin crouched down and reached out to touch the mud, closing her eyes to sense it carefully... Sword Qi!

Everything seen and felt in this world was Sword Qi.

"Li Shimei!" Li Shiyin heard someone calling her from behind, she turned around and it was Liu Baixuan.

At that time Liu Baixuan was at a slightly higher position on the mountain. Seeing Li Shiyin look over, he said, "The mountain and river are two different types of Sword Qi - the Great Mountain Sword Qi and the Great River Sword Qi. Walking up the mountain, every step increases understanding of Lu Junxing's Great Mountain Sword Qi; walking into the river, every foot deeper increases understanding of his Great River Sword Qi."

"Teacher Lu actually has two types of Sword Qi?!" Li Shiyin said in surprise. She had fought with Lu Junxing many times but did not discover this.

Liu Baixuan shook his head and said, "This should be a new variation he comprehended during this seclusion. His Sword Qi is just the Mountain and River Sword Qi, the Great Mountain and Great River are just variations of the Mountain and River Sword Qi."

"I see..." Li Shiyin nodded thoughtfully.

Based on this, wouldn't her Star Sword Qi also have variations... like Starlight Sword Qi and Night Sky Sword Qi?

"Does Martial Sister plan to climb the mountain or enter the river?" Liu Baixuan asked.

"Since Martial Brother is climbing the mountain, I will too! So we can support each other." Li Shiyin grinned.

"Martial Sister has a pure heart, no wonder you have progressed so quickly in the sword path." Liu Baixuan praised.

If he chose the mountain and Li Shiyin chose the river, it would be a competitive relationship. Similarly, if he chose the mountain then she said climbing to see who could climb higher, it would also be a subtle competition.

When Liu Baixuan emerged from Sword River, he discovered that Li Shiyin was nearing the peak.

He suddenly realized something then, stunned where he stood.

He thought, is there going to be another person above my head?

Just as he was thinking this, he saw Li Shiyin continue forward with only one step from the summit. But she suddenly stopped, not taking that last step, instead turning around and descending Sword Mountain.

"Why didn't you go up? You could have obtained Teacher Lu's complete Sword Qi comprehension!" Liu Baixuan asked, puzzled.

Li Shiyin looked at him, seeming she wanted to explain but ultimately did not. She just smiled and said, "I exhausted my strength."

Liu Baixuan did not believe her but tactfully refrained from questioning further.

Li Shiyin did not enter Sword River either. She turned and exited Mountain and River Sword. She had not seen her teacher for a very long time.

She entered Mountain and River Sword in late June. Now upon exiting, she saw a huge full moon in the sky.

Li Shiyin flew back eagerly to Dan Peak, only to discover the peak was very lively with banquets in front of the little wooden houses, no different due to her absence, causing her to feel somewhat sour.

But when she turned her head, she saw someone waiting under the chinese scholar tree, constantly looking towards her flying direction.

It was her teacher.

She sped towards him, directly landing in front of her teacher. Her teacher said to her, "Happy Mid-Autumn Festival!"

"Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, Teacher!" Disregarding everything, she pounced over and hung onto her teacher.

Her teacher hugged her.

Qin Ran brought Li Shiyin back to the little wooden houses. Li Shiyin saw many people there - Long Qiqi, Chasing the Wind, Tushan Youyou, Liu Xiaoji of course, and also Tian Wenjin, Lu Junxing, Dong Zhongyuan, and another man she did not recognize. It was indeed extremely lively.

"What a heart-to-heart connection between master and disciple!" Dong Zhongyuan ate mooncakes while teasing, "Before Little Martial Sister even arrived, Martial Uncle already said that my Shiyin is here, then went to wait there. Not long after, you arrived right on time."

"Hehe!" Li Shiyin giggled foolishly.

Lu Junxing walked over while drinking osmanthus wine, smiling as he asked Li Shiyin, "Why didn't you take that last step to the top?"

Li Shiyin hugged her teacher Qin Ran's arm with her little head leaning against his shoulder. She smiled at Lu Junxing, "That was your Sword Qi, not my Sword Qi."
