What era is it? Still practicing traditional martial arts?
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell silent, unable to come up with a response.
Seeing the silence among the crowd, Xue Changhe spoke coldly:
"Life is short, even for those who are experts in mastering special skills. How many people can live to be a hundred years old?"
"Even if you start practicing from the moment you are born, how much skill can you develop in a lifetime?"
"You work hard to practice, training in the scorching summers and freezing winters, while others are lazy?"
"For those top martial artists in the world, just working hard and practicing on your own is not enough!"
The world’s top martial artists, if they want to stand out in the martial arts world, must have extraordinary qualities.
Xue Changhe inherited his internal strength from his ancestors, Demon Spear Qing Li has the bloodline of the ancient Jingwei Divine Bird, Martial Saint enhances himself with the devouring sky skill, Founding Emperor Yan is one of the only two immortals on earth and after three hundred years of accumulation, he has the Medicine Spirit Body; Earth Sword Immortal is exceptionally talented and had reached the superb rank in his prime, dominating the peak of martial arts.
In the eyes of ordinary people, top strong individuals are exceptional, possessing unique advantages far beyond the ordinary.
So Xue Changhe didn’t really care about what these ordinary people thought of him.
What he cared about were the Qiao family member and Martial Saint, who were both top martial artists.
The Xue family’s strength was passed down through generations by a secret technique called the Blood River Pouring method, which was difficult to replicate, making the Xue family unique in the martial world.
However, in recent decades, a new figure named Martial Saint emerged.
The Xue family members inherited their ancestors’ strength.
Martial Saint, on the other hand, forcefully absorbed others’ internal energy and even reached an unparalleled level of Spiritual Refining.
Even though their paths were different, there were similarities between them, causing the Xue family members to feel inadequate.
The Qiao family member was even more exceptional.
Just now, the current head of the Xue family was mistaken for a Qiao family member.
"The Xue family has been studying how to break the curse of the Long Life Gate to protect themselves, but they are not deeply involved in the outside world."
"Without the Tide Listening Building, perhaps nobody would know the name of my Xue family."
One day, we will definitely compete against members of the Qiao family and Martial Saint.
With this thought in his mind, Xue Changhe swiftly leaped up using his light-foot technique and chased after the sword ahead.
Bursting with powerful energy, his figure left a fleeting trace of blood in the air.
"The Blood Shadow technique, is it the leader of the Xue family, Xue Changhe?"
"Once the top of the Strength List, is he also here to vie for the divine sword that appears in the Sword Tomb?"
All the martial artists in the martial world felt fear.
Whether the leader of the Xue family is strong or not is not directly related to his age.
Each leader of the Xue family, who inherited the internal strength from their ancestors, was an amazing martial artist with superb skills. They were even once ranked as the top martial artist on the Strength List.
Therefore, when Xue Changhe revealed his identity and leaped up, almost no one could stop him, and no one dared to try.
Wherever he soared to, people in the martial arts world scattered like birds and beasts, afraid to face his sharp edge.
With the body of the "Flying Blood Sword" still warm, Xue Changhe had already proven his strength. Who would dare to challenge him?
However, the sword they were chasing was not a magical sword, but a living person trapped on the sword.
The reaction of the crowd naturally caught the attention of the Earth Sword Immortal.
"The leader of the Xue family is truly impressive…" he just sneered.
"I wonder if your feathers have grown long enough, dare to come challenge me?"
Earth Sword Immortal was the top martial artist forty years ago, in an era where superb martial artists were scarce. The community was small, and he naturally knew about the Xue family’s stronghold on the top spot of the Strength List.
The inexperienced martial artists in the martial world thought Xue Changhe was very skilled due to his family background, but Earth Sword Immortal didn’t agree.
The young head of the Xue family in this generation is only twenty years old, which is quite terrifying in itself.
After all, even if one has great skills, there are still requirements.
The Xue family is not crazy and wouldn’t let an ordinary twenty-year-old take on the family’s legacy.
The human body’s dantian is like a water tank, while the internal strength passed down through generations of the Xue family is like a vast river.
Could any water tank contain the massive internal strength accumulated by the ancestors of the Xue family over the years?
Xue Changhe becoming the head of the Xue family at just twenty years old is indeed extraordinary.
"This young lad is quite agile…" The stone sword transformed by Earth Sword Immortal kept flashing in the air, getting closer to Xue Changhe.
While Earth Sword Immortal was still alive, internal strength was not his strong suit, and deteriorated even more after being in hiding for thirty years…
Now he doesn’t even have a physical body. After flying for a while, he started to feel exhausted and shouted loudly:
"Wait a minute!"
"As the saying goes: A good bird chooses a tree to nest, a wise minister chooses a master to serve."
"Since I am a divine sword, naturally I should choose my own master. What do you think?"
"Only those rare swordsmanship geniuses in the world are worthy of becoming my master."
This speech made many martial artists in the rivers and lakes stunned for a moment.
Most people did not link this stone sword with Earth Sword Immortal who died in the Zhong Province desert, including Xue Changhe.
They originally thought it was a mystical divine sword, but now hearing that it can choose a master like a living person, indeed surprised them.
"Makes sense," Xue Changhe replied slowly.
He saw this special sword for the first time.
The sword just said that "A good bird chooses the tree it roosts on, and a loyal minister chooses the lord to serve"… So in Baichuan City, there is no other martial artist stronger than him.
Not even in Baichuan City.
In the whole Southeast Province, and even in the Jiu Province, there are only a few superb martial artists who can rival the head of the Xue family.
So if this special sword is truly conscious, it would naturally choose him as its owner, which would make for a great story…
Unexpectedly, as soon as the stone sword finished speaking, it suddenly accelerated and rushed towards the crowd, landing on the hand of an old man in gray clothes.
"Hmm? Is it playing tricks on me?" Xue Changhe frowned.
The old man in gray clothes is over sixty years old, clearly not a young talented person, and most importantly… this old man was carrying a long knife on his back, clearly a swordsman.
The old man in gray clothes looked surprised, being of advanced age, it was the first time he encountered something strange like a treasure leaping into his hand on its own.
Just holding this stone sword in his hand, he started to have some wild thoughts, unable to control the growing desire within him.
"A sword that can speak, I have never heard of such a thing in my whole life, it’s like magic from the heavens…"
"With such a great opportunity in my hands, why not take a chance?"
Although Xue Changhe was strong, the old man in gray dared not compete with him.
But now that he had this magical sword in his hands, with a great opportunity right in front of him, should he still give it up?
And maybe…
The old man in gray drew the long knife from his back and held it up:
"Perhaps I have made a mistake, perhaps this is truly a master of swordsmanship, the fact that this magical sword chose me from among all others clearly shows it wasn’t a random choice."
The old man in gray gripped the long knife, feeling a strong sense of battle rising within him.
This time, he is going to fight!
The old man in gray raised his sword, as he reached old age, his blood boiled, and he felt alive again. This time, he is going to fight!
"Fight! Fight! Fight! When brave men meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins!"
The sword flashed through the air as he swung at Xue Changhe charging towards him, his eyes full of anger, putting all his strength into the long sword.
But in the next moment.
The stone sword in his hand floated lightly once again and flew through the crowd.
"You… this?" The old man in gray was sent flying by Xue Changhe’s immense power, crashing into a wall over ten meters away.
He didn’t even touch the wall, just stared in shock at the stone sword, feeling a surge of blood clogging his heart…
"It seems your skills are not enough…" Earth Sword Immortal left with these light words, continuing to move through the crowd.
Where there are many people, the martial artist with higher skills would fly towards that direction.
"If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight." A deep voice came from the stone sword:
"To wield the divine sword, one must first have the corresponding qualities."
"Young man, do you want to be a sword bearer and learn unparalleled swordsmanship?"
"Block one and a half moves from Xue Changhe, then I will acknowledge your exceptional qualities."
The stone sword moved swiftly through the crowd, its voice echoing all around.
Among the many martial artists, some could see the Earth Sword Immortal’s intentions.
Some people retreated like avoiding snakes and scorpions, while others, with inflated ambitions, tried to reach out for the sword.
Amidst the chaos, they managed to stall Xue Changhe, the head of the Xue family, who possessed a strength as vast as the sea.
"This stone sword is really good," Xue Changhe was almost amused.
He not only aimed to get the divine Sword Tomb sword with this move, but also to make a name for himself.
While he could easily ignore these blocking martial artists and push through with his strong energy, he didn’t intend to earn such a fierce reputation.
Suddenly.
The stone sword weaving through the crowd made him speed up suddenly, flying towards a red-clothed woman at the back of the crowd.
This beautiful red-clothed woman stood out among the martial artists, attracting everyone’s attention in the bustling crowd.
"Young lady, I can tell, you have a great spirit," a serious voice came from the stone sword:
"Come, hold my handle tightly, let me become your sword."
"Huh?" The red-clothed woman looked puzzled, as if she hadn’t fully understood yet:
"Didn’t you just say that you need to hold my hand first to see if you are worthy of holding the divine sword?"
"No need to try," the Stone Sword’s voice became deep and serious.
"Only those with insufficient qualities need to try, not you."
"Every man in this world is a sword, but even the sharpest sword needs a scabbard, like the wind needs the sand," Earth Sword Immortal spoke romantically.
"So, would you like to be my scabbard?"
"If you do, then grasp my handle tightly."
The woman in red, who was hesitant and shy at first, suddenly smiled when Earth Sword Immortal finished speaking.
She reached out her hand and held the floating stone sword in front of her.
Earth Sword Immortal was about to make a witty remark, but at that moment, his tone became urgent.
"No, be gentle, you’re going to break it… What are you doing?"
Before the words had even finished, the faint light on the stone sword had gradually faded, making it look like an ordinary rock.

The woman in red lowered her head and glanced at the stone sword in her hand, saying quietly:
"You’re right."
"Although it may seem slick, it is indeed a legendary divine sword."
"In today’s world, no one is worthy of such a divine sword, it’s better off buried in the Sword Tomb."
"Even if the extraordinary divine sword gathers dust, it’s better than being held by the incompetent."
The woman in red held the stone sword, but moved swiftly among the crowd like a ghostly figure, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.
Xue Changhe leaped onto the rooftop of a nearby tavern and looked into the distance from up high, but the red-clothed woman’s figure was nowhere to be seen.
"It seems that this martial world is even more exciting than what the elders have talked about."
Xue Changhe frowned slightly.
With his immense internal strength listed at the top, Xue Changhe thought that by stepping out this time, he could sweep through undefeated, break the Xue family’s generational curse, and create his own martial arts legend.
Unexpectedly, right after he stepped out, he first encountered an unconventional stone sword, followed by a mysterious red-clothed woman.
"Is she the guardian of the Sword Tomb… the Sword Tomb’s guardian?" Xue Changhe pondered this thought.
Although Xue Changhe lacked deep experience in the martial world, he had elder family members to rely on.
The Xue family was a unique martial arts family, with few members and short lifespans. They were considered on par with the Great Yan Imperial Court royals, the only two families to have escaped the clutches of Martial Saint and not been wiped out by him.
Despite their small numbers, each generation of Xue family leaders were superb martial artists with exceptional internal strength, holding a high position in the martial world and naturally knowing some martial arts secrets.
For example, the guardian of the Sword Tomb.
The so-called Sword Tomb is a tomb for famous swords.
For hundreds of years, most of the famous swords sent out by the Sword Casting Village would be stored back into the Sword Tomb.
If the first owner of the Sword Casting Village was a world-renowned top swordsmith.
Then the first guardian of the Sword Tomb was the Sword Demon who killed the village owner…
As for the personal background of the Sword Demon and the grudges between the Sword Demon and the owner of the sword casting village, they were events from hundreds of years ago that have faded into history.
Although members of the Xue family did not live long, they valued their lives greatly, and their internal strength and knowledge were passed down continuously, so Xue Changhe knew a bit more about the past than the martial artists of his time…
Xue Changhe did not explain further, he leaped up and used his lightness skill to be the first to leave.
Although Sword Tomb is a tomb for famous swords, it also inherited the legacy of the former Sword Casting Village. Over the past hundreds of years, there were still people who could obtain divine swords from the Sword Tomb and leave.
Now, he was about to become a Sword Seeker.
Of course! Please provide me with the sentence you’d like me to translate.
Half an hour later.
A black sailboat sailed into Baichuan City along the river.
At the front of the boat, the young man with long white hair and rosy lips gently rowed the oars, and the black boat swiftly moved forward under his feet.
A jade woman sat behind him on the boat, holding a big round-faced fat cat in her arms and playing with a small Jingwei bird next to her with her fingers.
Qiao Mu looked at the chaotic aftermath of the battle in the city, thinking that he might have arrived a little late after crossing mountains and rivers from Nan Province.
