The first ray of dawn light shone through the treetops, sprinkling onto the faces of Yun Xiyue and Mo Zetian, illuminating their hidden path deep in the forest. After a night's rest, Yun Xiyue had fully recovered, her eyes sparkling with curiosity. Mo Zetian followed quietly behind her, his gaze deep and his steps steady.
After passing through a dense thicket, Yun Xiyue was drawn to a secluded cave. Her curiosity ignited, she entered without hesitation. Mo Zetian furrowed his brow but followed inside.
The cave was unusually spacious, with luminescent moss growing on the walls, illuminating the surroundings. Yun Xiyue scanned the cave with her eyes, and suddenly, in a secluded corner, she found an old book left on a stone stool. The book looked worn on the outside, but exuded an indescribable charm.
She walked over and carefully picked up the book, flipping open the cover. The pages were yellowed, with ancient writing that detailed the secrets of an ancient sect - the Orchid Sect. A hint of excitement flashed in Yun Xiyue's eyes as she quickly began to read.
Mo Zetian approached her, his gaze falling on those pages, observing calmly. There was not much surprise in his eyes, but a hint of interest was revealed.
"What have you discovered in this book?" Mo Zetian asked, his tone calm yet carrying a subtle, almost imperceptible curiosity.
Yun Xiyue looked up at him, the surprise in her eyes gradually turning into contemplation. "This book records some ancient secrets of the Orchid Sect, and even contains some content related to your Heavenly Sword Sect. What an unexpected discovery!"
Mo Zetian's eyebrows raised slightly, evidently somewhat surprised by this news. He leaned in closer, his gaze focused on the yellowed pages. "Did the Heavenly Sword Sect and Orchid Sect have any interaction in the distant past?"
"It seems so," Yun Xiyue replied, while gently flipping through the pages of the book. "Here it mentions an ancient legend, it seems that our ancestors had some kind of agreement."
Mo Zetian listened quietly, with a thoughtful gleam in their eyes. Suddenly, they gently raised their hand and touched the page with their fingertips. "Do you think these records are reliable? After all, these words are ancient, and their authenticity is difficult to determine."
Yun Xiyue turned around and faced Mo Zetian with a determined look in their eyes, "Even if there's a slight possibility, I must pursue it. This is not only about our sect, but perhaps it can also unveil the mysterious veil of your origin."
Mo Zetian nodded slightly, a faint smile grazing their lips, "Then, I will accompany you in exploring this history together."
"Inside here are recorded the secret techniques and history of the Orchid Sect, and there are even some clues about your origins," Yun Xiyue said excitedly, her tone filled with curiosity and a passion for exploration.
Mo Zetian nodded slightly, his tone still calm: "It seems we need to carefully study this book."
Two people sat together in the cave, engrossed in reading ancient texts. Yun Xiyue's eyes were filled with concentration and passion as her fingertips gently glided over each page, as if communicating with every word in the ancient texts. Mo Zetian, on the other hand, appeared more composed, his gaze focused, occasionally pausing on the pages, contemplating their meanings.
As time passed, Yun Xiyue discovered a record about Mo Zetian's background. It turned out that he was a descendant of a legendary figure from the Orchid Sect. This legendary figure had single-handedly changed the entire landscape of the cultivation world.
Yun Xiyue looked at Mo Zetian in amazement: "Do you know this? You are actually the descendant of that legendary figure!"
A hint of complexity appeared in Mo Zetian's eyes as he gently shook his head: "I was adopted by my master since I was young, and my origin has never been mentioned by my master."
Yun Xiyue showed a hint of excitement on her face, as if she had discovered a new continent: "This means you may have unknown powers and secrets!"
Mo Zetian, on the other hand, seemed indifferent to the matter, his eyes remaining calm: "The past is shrouded in mist, I only care about the path ahead."
Yun Xiyue I want to say something more, but seeing Mo Zetian's calm and determined gaze, she chose to remain silent. Mo Zetian's character determines that he will not be complacent because of past glory; he values his own strength and the path to the future more.
Mo Zetian suddenly stood up, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "We should continue forward. This ancient book may be helpful for our journey."
Yun Xiyue nodded, she put away the ancient books and stood up.
The two of them left the cave and continued their training. As they walked through the forest, they discussed the ancient secrets and strategies in the books while moving forward. Yun Xiyue was straightforward and often proposed bold ideas, while Mo Zetian was calmer, carefully analyzing each strategy.
As they shuttle through the forest, they encounter obstacles from time to time and discover novelties at other times.
In the dense shade of the woods, Yun Xiyue and Mo Zetian continue on their adventurous journey. The shadows of the dense forest cast mottled light and shadow on them, constantly changing with their steps. Yun Xiyue's eyes are full of curiosity and the passion of exploration, while Mo Zetian maintains his usual calm and steadiness, his eyes deep and seemingly able to penetrate all secrets.
Wandering deep in the forest, they stumbled upon a hidden path. Yun Xiyue hurried towards the path with an impatient look. However, Mo Zetian gently held her back and solemnly warned, "Be careful, there might be traps here."
Yun Xiyue turned back with a frown, showing some impatience, "I know what I'm doing, I don't need your reminder." Her tone carried a hint of irritability, but Mo Zetian remained unfazed, his expression still calm, and his tone flat, "The environment here is complex, it's always good to be a little more cautious."
The words of Mo Zetian are direct, without any embellishment, but they appear to be extremely practical. His eyes scan the surrounding environment, as if searching for any potential dangers.
They proceed cautiously along the path, when suddenly, a gust of wind blows and the leaves rustle. Yun Xiyue's ears twitch, and she swiftly turns, drawing her sword and pointing it towards the nearby bushes. There, a pair of shining eyes belonging to a wild beast can be seen, lurking and observing them.
Mo Zetian Swiftly grasping the sword, standing by Yun Xiyue, with a cold and piercing gaze fixed on the beast. His movements were swift and precise, displaying his habitual violent tendencies.
Yun Xiyue squinted, showing a hint of excitement for the battle: "Looks like we're in for a good show."
A beast suddenly pounced and charged at them. Yun Xiyue did not hesitate to confront it, her swordsmanship was swift and wild, each strike carrying the force of wind and thunder. Mo Zetian remained calm, each of his moves precise and aimed at vital points.
After the battle, Yun Xiyue looked at the fallen beast, panting, with an indomitable smile on her face, "This is what a battle should be like!"
Mo Zetian lightly wiped the blood off his sword, his expression indifferent, seemingly unexcited by the recent battle.
Mo Zetian glanced around, checking for any lurking dangers. His expression remained as calm as ever, as if the intense battle just now was nothing more than a routine sword practice for him. His gaze fell on Yun Xiyue, with a hint of praise in his eyes, but his words remained direct, "Your swordsmanship is becoming more powerful, but you still need to control your emotions."
Yun Xiyue She pursed her lips, wiped the sweat from her forehead, and although she was somewhat dissatisfied with Mo Zetian's calmness, she still listened to him. Her character was straightforward and sincere, never shying away from genuine advice. "I know, but in battle, I just can't control myself."
Mo Zetian nodded slightly, and although it was not easy to detect in his expression, there was a hint of gentleness, evidently appreciating Yun Xiyue's frankness. He turned and continued walking, his steps firm, as if he had already put the battle behind him.
They passed through a dense thicket, and Mo Zetian suddenly stopped, looking into the distance with a serious expression. Yun Xiyue followed his gaze, but she saw nothing except the dense forest and mist.
"What's the matter?" Yun Xiyue asked, furrowing her brow.
Mo Zetian lightly replied, "There's something unusual ahead, we need to be cautious." His tone remained calm, but a hint of vigilance shone in his eyes.
A smile tugged at the corner of his mouth, and a glint of challenge flashed in his eyes, "What could make Mo Zetian feel cautious? I'm curious to find out."
Mo Zetian said nothing, just nodded slightly to signal her to follow. His movements were agile, his eyes sharp, as if he was ready to face any potential danger at any moment.
They moved forward slowly, when suddenly, a faint sound came from the left. Mo Zetian swiftly moved and was already blocking Yun Xiyue's path. His quick and accurate response showed his innate alertness and protective nature.
Yun Xiyue was not shaken by his actions, but rather became more excited. She tightened the sword in her hand, ready to face the upcoming battle.
However, what appeared in front of them was not an enemy, but a strange sight - a maze made of rocks and moss. Mo Zetian frowned slightly, seemingly surprised by such a scene.
Yun Xiyue Curiosity flashed in her eyes, and she couldn't help but walk up to touch those stones, saying softly, "This maze seems ancient and mysterious. Should we explore it?"
Mo Zetian Gazing at the entrance of the maze, after a moment of contemplation, she said, "Perhaps the answers we seek are hidden here, but we must proceed with caution. The maze may be filled with unknown dangers."
Yun Xiyue She nodded, her expression turning serious, but her eyes still filled with the passion of adventure. She took a deep breath and then headed towards the entrance of the maze.
Mo Zetian Following closely behind, his gaze remained vigilant, as if ready to respond to any sudden situation at any time.
maze The mist is thick, limiting visibility, but it doesn't stop their footsteps. Yun Xiyue Leading the way, her steps are light, seemingly excited for this unknown adventure. Mo Zetian is more cautious, his gaze constantly scanning the surroundings, maintaining a high level of alertness to the environment.
As they venture deeper into the maze, the mist gradually dissipates, revealing an ancient altar before them. The altar is inscribed with unidentifiable runes, exuding a mysterious and ancient aura.
Yun Xiyue approached the altar and gently touched the runes, her eyes filled with curiosity and astonishment. "These runes seem very ancient. I have never seen them in the ancient texts of the Orchid Sect."
Mo Zetian stood by the altar, his gaze solemn, and spoke calmly, "These runes may be related to some ancient secret technique. We need to study them carefully."
Yun Xiyue She nodded, her gaze falling on a stone slab in the center of the altar, which seemed to be engraved with some kind of pattern. She carefully flipped over the stone slab, revealing the hidden item underneath.
It was an ancient jade pendant, intricately carved with a faint glow. Yun Xiyue lifted the jade pendant, her eyes filled with surprise, "This jade pendant seems very unusual, perhaps it is a treasure left behind by a powerful being in the past."
Mo Zetian Gazing at the jade pendant, his eyes were deep, as if pondering the secret behind it. After a moment of silence, he said, "This jade pendant may be related to a secret technique, but we need more clues to unlock its mystery."
