"We finally found the waterfall."

This simple sentence was enough to express the excitement in Yun Tian's heart.

In the short span of ten hours, he had suffered a lot in order to find this waterfall!

Yun Tian felt an unknown force suddenly fill his body. With the large saber in one hand, Yun Tian quickly rushed toward where the sound of flowing water came from.

"Haha, hahaha."

After travelling at full speed for nearly a hundred breaths, a huge waterfall that was nearly ten zhang in height and several meters in width appeared before Yun Tian. He looked at it and laughed foolishly for several tens of breaths.

"Plop!"

After looking at the waterfall in a daze for a while, Yun Tian suddenly jumped into a large pond under the waterfall. "Haha, it feels great!"

After gulping down a few mouthfuls of the spring water, Yun Tian felt a sweet sensation from his throat all the way to his heart and he couldn't help but let out a few cries.

After soaking in the pool for close to an hour, Yun Tian finally reached the shore. After eating some food, he found an empty space and sat down cross-legged to recover his spirit energy.

Waves of spiritual energy could be felt gathering within Yun Tian's body. Yun Tian only felt that the elemental energy within his dantian was rapidly increasing. Feeling the filling of his dantian, Yun Tian's face was once again filled with smiles.

"Let's rest for a while first. We'll go to the cave behind the waterfall later and we'll be able to cultivate the 'Stone Demon Body' tomorrow!"

After changing into a clean set of clothes, the sky had already darkened. Yun Tian sat on an empty patch of land, gnawing on a piece of dried meat as he muttered.

After resting on the empty ground for an hour, Yun Tian felt that his current condition had reached its peak. After treating the wounds on his body, he stood up and looked at the waterfall that could vaguely be seen under the moonlight.

After swimming for about an incense's time, Yun Tian finally felt a stream of water start to hit his head, which meant that it was close to the cliff behind the waterfall. This made him extremely excited, and after swimming for a few dozen more breaths of time, Yun Tian suddenly felt the impact of the water become enormous, his head felt dizzy, but fortunately, he had already touched the stone wall behind the waterfall.

Yun Tian climbed up the stone wall step by step. After being hit by the water current for so many years, the stone wall had long since lost its sharpness from many years ago and had become smooth and round. It was because of this that Yun Tian could feel the difficulty.

"Plop!"

He landed heavily in the pool again, causing all his efforts to go down the drain. Thankfully, he did not sustain any injuries. Yun Tian was completely motionless in the pool, the biting cold of the spring water deeply stimulated every single pore on his body.

He was now thinking of climbing the mountain face to find a way to climb the water curtain behind the cave.

Another hour passed, and Yun Tian finally moved in the water. He held two cold daggers in his hands. These were the two black iron daggers his mother had given him before he left, which were infinitely close to the Great Firmament Spirit Treasure.

"This dagger is like mud. It shouldn't have any problems inserting itself into the mountain wall!"

Yun Tian obviously wanted to use these two black iron daggers as a support point to help him climb up the smooth stone wall.

"Clang clang!"

The moment the dagger touched the stone wall, it produced a metallic clanging sound. The xuan iron dagger was unexpectedly cut in half, shocking Yun Tian, "Fuck, could this stone wall be mixed with high quality refining materials!? My Darksteel Dagger only managed to pierce half of it under my full strength attack! Fortunately, this can still barely keep me from climbing up! "

Just like this, Yun Tian stabbed the mountain wall for over an hour before continuing.

"Haha, I found it. It seems like the place to stay tonight is safe!"

Just like before, Yun Tian grabbed the dagger below him and stabbed upwards, but he stumbled and almost fell again. It had to be known that he was now at the top of the waterfall, if he fell like this, even if there was water below, he would still be crippled!

However, he was extremely happy. If he missed an opportunity, that would mean that what followed would be empty. That would mean there was only one explanation. It was a water curtain cave!

After exploring the dark night for a while, Yun Tian knew that the cave entrance was extremely small. Even with his petite body, he was barely able to enter.

With great effort, Yun Tian finally entered.

Once he entered, Yun Tian discovered over a dozen extremely weak beams of light quietly hiding within the cave. He knew that these rays of light were all moonlight, but he was extremely surprised at how these weak rays of moonlight could enter the cave. "Could it be that someone has forcefully broken through the rock wall and connected the cave to the outside!"

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shiver. His current location was at least ten zhang away from the top of the mountain. If he wanted to create such a small and exquisite hole, what kind of strength would that be?

If this was any senior expert's hidden cave... He did not dare to think any further!

"Senior, junior only wishes to find a place to rest in this barren mountain. I have no intention of offending senior's cultivation. If there is anything that would bother you, senior, please forgive me."

Yun Tian was very nervous right now. He had heard from his family's elders that many people who cultivated in seclusion had strange temperaments. Who knew if they would beat him into mincemeat in anger.

"It's been three hundred years, and someone has finally come to this place!"

After a moment of silence, the cave suddenly lit up. At the same time, an old voice entered Yun Tian's ears. Yun Tian was shocked by the voice. An old man was smiling at him with an indescribable benevolence.

What kind of old man was he? He was covered in a simple grey cloth, and his hair was much whiter than black. His face was thin and kind, but Yun Tian could not see his feet, and only one of his hands was left, the other arm was cut off, leaving only his empty sleeves.

Junior Yun Tian greets senior, junior is training in the back mountain, but his strength is too low, and I have nowhere to go at night. I can only find a cave behind this waterfall to hide from some powerful demon beasts, and unknowingly barge into senior's cave dwelling.

Although Yun Tian was extremely surprised when he saw the old man's appearance, he did not reveal it. Instead, he cupped his hands together and bowed to the old man.

Seeing how Yun Tian had calmed down so quickly or perhaps even suppressed his shock, the old man nodded his head in satisfaction, "Don't worry little kid, this old man has no ill intentions. This old man has finally met someone I can chat with after three hundred years here!"

"Senior, why have you been here for so long?"

At this moment, Yun Tian could not help but ask.

"Hehe, you are a descendant of the Yun Family. I wonder if you've heard of the name Yun Jin?"

The elder didn't reply to Yun Tian's question, but instead asked him a question with a smile.

He is the Grand Elder of our Yun Family. Three hundred years ago, he and another senior both lost their lives in order to eliminate a powerful demon beast in the Snake Mountain Range, and that demon beast did not appear again. It is likely that they perished together! However, this is something that some of the elders in my clan have said, and I do not know if it is true or not. "

Although Yun Tian didn't know why the old man asked this, he still told him everything he knew.

In the past, we both underestimated the intelligence of that beast. In the beginning, I was ambushed by that beast, and the beast's strength was still above ours, so Brother Yun Jin risked his life to keep that beast from implicating me, and let me escape, but at that time, both my legs and one of my hands were bitten by that beast. I was poisoned to the extreme, so after escaping to this cave, I had no choice but to cut off my own legs and hand.

After the old man had been quiet for a long time, he slowly said with an extremely sad tone. His words seemed to contain a deep sense of guilt!

"Could it be that this senior is the close friend of our senior, the one nicknamed 'Ancient Sword Cultivator', Zheng Fengxuan?"

Although Yun Tian knew the answer the moment he heard the elder's words, he still did not give up.

"Indeed, I am Zheng Fengxuan!"

Slowly raising his head, the old man spoke word by word in an extremely aged voice.

Although Yun Tian had already mentally prepared himself, when he heard the old man admit it himself, his heart was still in turmoil.

Three hundred years ago, "Evil Blade Ancient Sword Laughing Forest Continent"

Everyone in Lin Prefecture knew what this meant. Among them, there was this "ancient sword".

He was referring to the fact that the ancient sword cultivated Zheng Fengxuan!

Back then, his reputation was not weak even in the entire Grand Xuan Empire. At this moment, Yun Tian could not help but sigh in his heart when he saw the famous person from back then ending up like this!

"Sigh, there's no need to mention the past anymore. It's fate that we meet each other. Tell me about the current situation in your Yun Family!"

A soft sigh brought Yun Tian back to reality!

"Senior, the Yun Family has declined a little over a hundred years ago. Now, I heard my father say that it was suppressed by the Blood Eagle Sect at every turn, and that it could only be considered as the second largest power in the entire Lin Province! The current Patriarch is called Yun Feijia, I have only seen him once, so I do not understand him too well! "

Speaking up to this point, Yun Tian's expression turned a little sad. He was also a member of the Yun Family. Now that the Yun Family had fallen, of course he wouldn't feel good!

"Yun Fei Armor? I remember this person is Brother Yun Jin's youngest grandson, right? In the past, I met him a few times. His talent in cultivation is good, and he doesn't panic when it comes to dealing with things. He can be considered a good person, but now, he has actually become the Yun Family Patriarch! "
