Chapter 165 Trial

The deepest part of the palace.

Three people from the Sword Sect came this time, two young men and an old man.

The old man's expression was serious and there was no trace of energy fluctuation on his body.

At first glance, he looks like an ordinary old man, but he exudes an invisible aura of oppression that makes people feel intimidated.

"His Majesty!"

The old man walked slowly to Ji Che, bowed slightly with a hint of respect.

"Thank you for your hard work, Elder Yu."

Ji Che smiled and nodded.

Yu Kongzi nodded, looked at Lin Yuan, frowned slightly, and said: "Your Majesty, the person next to you does not seem to be from the Southern Region."

"Elder Yu has good eyesight. He is indeed not from the Southern Region."

Ji Che smiled and nodded, then looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Lin Yuan, this is Elder Yu Kongzi Yu, the great elder of the inner sect of the Sword Sect. Come over and meet him."

Lin Yuan stepped forward, bowed and said respectfully: "Lin Yuan greets Elder Yu."

Yu Kongzi's brows were still furrowed. He had understood Ji Che's idea and asked, "Your Majesty, do you want him to join our Sword Sect to practice?"

Ji Che nodded.

"Your Majesty, the rules of the Sword Sect were set by your ancestors. Now..." Yu Kongzi was a little puzzled. What kind of charm did this young man named Lin Yuan have that made Ji Che make an exception?

"Elder Yu, Lin Yuan saved my life, and I promised him that I would send him to the Sword Sect to practice."

Ji Che paused for a moment and then said, "If possible, please let him enter the ancient tomb."

Hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared on Yu Kongzi's face.

Inside the ancient tomb lies the inheritance of the Void Emperor. This is something that everyone knows, and Ji Che would not be unaware of it.

But why should we let this outsider enter the ancient tomb?

Yu Kongzi said solemnly with a serious face: "Your Majesty, letting this little friend Lin Yuan to practice in my Sword Sect is already a violation of the rules. Now you want him to enter the ancient tomb. This old man disagrees."

"Why?"

"Inside the ancient tomb is the supreme inheritance of your ancestors. If an outsider were to obtain it, I'm afraid the five major sects would not agree."

Yu Kongzi said solemnly.

"Whether they agree or not, what does it have to do with me?"

Ji Che glanced at Yu Kongzi indifferently and said, "The ancestor has left behind a legacy for ten thousand years, and has been looking for a successor until now. I believe that Lin Yuan can do it."

When Yu Kongzi heard this, he knew that Ji Che had made up his mind. He sighed in his heart and stopped trying to persuade him. He said, "Since your majesty has said so, I will not say anything more."

Then he looked at Lin Yuan and said, "Since you are recommended by His Majesty, I will let you join my Sword Sect."

"But I still need to test whether you are qualified to enter the ancient tomb."

"Chen Mo!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man on Yu Kongzi's left walked forward.

"Grand Elder."

Yu Kongzi glanced at Chen Mo and said, "This is my Sword Sect's inner disciple, who is at the Seventh Element Nirvana Realm. If you can defeat him, I will agree with His Majesty's opinion."

"I agree."

Lin Yuan knew that this was the biggest concession Yu Kongzi had ever made, so he agreed without thinking.

"Elder Yu, you seem to have underestimated Lin Yuan."

Ji Che smiled faintly and teased.

Yu Kongzi frowned when he heard this, but didn't say anything.

Lin Yuan and Chen Mo walked to the center of the hall. After nodding to each other, Chen Mo drew out the rapier in his hand and said kindly, "I will not show mercy in this battle. Be careful, sir."

Lin Yuan was not afraid. The Qiankun bag on his waist flashed slightly, and a ray of green light appeared.

The next moment, Lin Yuan had an ancient long sword in his hand.

"Huh?

Are you also a swordsman?"

When Chen Mo saw the ancient sword, he secretly said, "What a good sword!" and was amazed.

"I have been learning sword since I was young."

"To be honest, I have never lost in kendo."

Lin Yuan chuckled, confidence showing in his eyes.

"Is it?

How about we just not use our energy and just have a simple sword fight?"

Chen Mo disagreed with Lin Yuan's words.

In his opinion, although Lin Yuan had been learning swordsmanship since he was young, without the guidance of a famous teacher, how good could he be in kendo?

Today, he must teach this ignorant young man a lesson about the fact that there is always someone better than you!

"Okay, that's exactly what I meant."

Lin Yuan laughed loudly, then rushed forward with his sword in hand.

Neither of them used their energy and sword intent, but chose to fight with the most primitive sword techniques.

"Clang, clang, clang!"

When Lin Yuan uses the sword, he focuses on speed, accuracy, and ruthlessness.

Chen Mo, on the other hand, is flexible and changeable.

In a few breaths, the two men exchanged more than a hundred moves, but neither could do anything to the other.

On the side, Ji Che looked at the two people fighting and asked Yu Kongzi with a smile: "What do you think of Lin Yuan's swordsmanship, Elder Yu?"

Yu Kongzi nodded calmly: "Yes, Your Majesty has indeed found a person with extraordinary talent."

"He is a genius of the demonic level. Elder Yu will know once he sees it."

Ji Che said with a smile.

When Yu Kongzi heard Ji Che's words, he frowned and looked at Lin Yuan again.

"This young man is extraordinary..." Chen Mo put away the contempt in his heart, and a blue light flashed on the sword, that was the sword intent!

"Sword intention?"

Lin Yuan was not to be outdone, and a green light suddenly appeared on the ancient sword.

Then the two fought again.

The two sword intentions collided, sparks flew everywhere, and the violent sword intentions left countless marks on the surrounding walls.

"Bang!"

The two men collided again, and then each took a few steps back.

"I wonder what level you have reached?"

Chen Mo asked curiously.

Lin Yuan said nothing, a huge sword intent poured into the ancient sword, the dazzling green light turned into a green flame, burning fiercely on the ancient sword!

"The first level of the Heavenly Sword!"

This time, not only Chen Mo was shocked, but Yu Kongzi was also a little surprised.

"True Flame Breaks the Sky!"

The vast and boundless sword intent quickly condensed on the ancient sword. The blazing fire wrapped the ancient sword tightly, and terrifying power permeated the blade.

"Brother Chen, be careful!"

Lin Yuan grinned, and controlled the sword with his Qi. The ancient sword whooshed and flew towards Chen Mo with a whistling sound.

"Good boy, this is getting interesting."

Chen Mo's eyes lit up slightly, and he no longer hid his secrets. He madly injected the energy in his body into the sword.

"Thunder Breaks!"

Chen Mo swung his sword and hit the ancient sword hard.

"Boom!"

After a loud bang, horrifying waves spread in all directions, and the hall also shook violently, as if it was about to collapse at any time.

At this moment, Yu Kongzi took action.

He just waved his sleeves lightly, and the violent fluctuations suddenly disappeared into thin air!

"Okay, stop it."

After hearing Yu Kongzi's words, the two men quickly separated and put away their weapons.

"Your Majesty, we have accepted this young man, but whether he can enter the ancient tomb depends on his performance in the future."

Yu Kongzi bowed slightly towards Ji Che and said calmly.

"I believe Lin Yuan will not let you down."

Ji Che smiled faintly, his words full of confidence.

Yu Kongzi nodded without comment, then waved his sleeves, the space shook, and then a door appeared.

"Let's go."

Yu Kongzi glanced at Lin Yuan, then rushed into the gate and disappeared.

"Junior Brother Lin, welcome to my Sword Sect."

Chen Mo smiled and stretched out his right hand.

"Thanks."

Lin Yuan also extended his hand, and the two shook hands in a friendly manner and then separated.

"Let's go."

Chen Mo smiled brightly and disappeared through the gate with another companion.

Lin Yuan looked back at Ji Che and said solemnly: "Thank you. If you need anything in the future, you are welcome."

After saying that, without waiting for Ji Che to answer, he jumped up, entered the gate and disappeared.

Looking at Lin Yuan's disappearing figure, Ji Che sighed.

"It's time for me to take action..."
