Chapter 1353: Chapter 664: Heretic Ming Sect, Crisis in the Small Town?

miles outside Buried Sword Valley.

There lies a small town in this place.

The name of the town is Bai Mu Town.

This is an ordinary and tranquil town, seemingly secluded from the world and undisturbed by external turmoil.

The residents here live a life where they rise at sunrise and rest at sunset, maintaining harmonious and close relationships, like one big family.

As Luo Yao stepped into this town, an inexplicable sense of familiarity surged in his heart.

He strolled along the streets of the town; the houses on both sides were simple and elegant, and the verdant trees lined the streets, exuding a sense of tranquility and harmony.

He arrived at an inn, intending to rest there.

The innkeeper was a middle-aged man with a kind face and a warm demeanor.

Seeing Luo Yao, he immediately approached and warmly greeted, "Sir, would you like a room? We have top-notch lodgings that will guarantee your satisfaction."

Luo Yao nodded and said, "Please arrange a room for me."

The innkeeper hastily obliged, personally leading Luo Yao to a clean and tidy guest room.

Luo Yao set down his luggage, sat by the bed, and began contemplating his next course of action.

He knew that although he had acquired considerable Sword Dao inheritance, to truly master this power, long-term cultivation and comprehension were required. During this process, he needed a quiet and safe place to train, free from external disturbances.

Bai Mu Town was precisely the right place.

It was far from the clamor, with a beautiful environment, and the residents were plain and unpretentious, causing no trouble for him.

Thus, Luo Yao decided to settle here and begin his cultivation journey.

In the days to follow, Luo Yao would come to a forested area outside the town to train every morning.

He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and focused his mind, condensing his Sword Intent at the tip of his sword, emitting a sharp and profound Sword Intent around him.

As time went on, his Sword Intent grew stronger, and the surrounding trees seemed drawn to it, leaning towards him.

Every time this happened, Luo Yao felt a powerful force surge towards him from all directions, infusing into his body.

His Sword Intent also became increasingly powerful under the nourishment of this force.

He knew this was a manifestation of gradually mastering the lost Sword Dao inheritance during his training.

Besides training, Luo Yao would also stroll around the town and engage with the residents.

He found that although the residents lived simple lives, they possessed pure and kind qualities.

They were helpful and caring towards others, making Luo Yao feel a long-lost warmth and tranquility.

In this town, Luo Yao spent a peaceful and fulfilling period.

His Sword Dao cultivation steadily improved during this peaceful time.

However, good times didn’t last long.

One night, while Luo Yao was training in the inn, he suddenly heard frantic footsteps and shouts outside.

He immediately left his room to check the situation, only to find a group of masked individuals in black clothing causing havoc and looting in town.

Luo Yao was startled and knew these black-clad people were not of good nature.

He immediately drew his Longsword and charged toward the masked individuals.

Seeing Luo Yao approaching, the masked individuals launched an attack against him.

But Luo Yao’s Swordsmanship had reached a masterful level, and he easily dodged the attacks from the masked individuals and retaliated.

Instantly, Sword Qi filled the open space in front of the inn, with flashes of blades and swords.

Relying on his powerful Sword Intent and Swordsmanship, Luo Yao defeated the black-clad individuals one by one.

But the black-clad individuals seemed endless, pouring into the town in ever-increasing numbers.

Luo Yao knew this wasn’t good; he understood he must quickly uncover the origin and purpose of these masked individuals to protect the town’s safety.

In the following days, Luo Yao ran around investigating the situation with the masked individuals.

He discovered that these masked individuals seemed to be searching for something, and their target was Bai Mu Town.

Luo Yao’s heart sank; he knew he must quickly ascertain their purpose and stop them.

After thorough investigation, Luo Yao finally found the hideout of the black-clad individuals, a mysterious cave hidden deep in the forest.

He immediately went to explore the cave, discovering that it indeed concealed a great secret, an ancient Formation lost for ages!

This ancient Formation emitted a dark, ancient aura, with a bead suspended at its center, glowing faintly, seemingly containing endless power and secrets, which was precisely the object the masked individuals coveted.

Luo Yao immediately understood that the Formation and the bead were likely the root cause of the town’s crisis.

"Alas, the Cultivation World is truly chaotic; even in an ordinary town, one can encounter such issues..."

Originally, Luo Yao came here.

His purpose was simply to find a place to rest well.

But now it seems...

It’s not possible.

Luo Yao sighed softly, feeling helpless yet knowing he couldn’t stand idle.

If the ancient Formation and the bead fell into the hands of evil, the consequences would be unimaginable, not only would Bai Mu Town face destruction, but the entire surrounding region could also fall into turmoil.

He tightened his grip on the Longsword, his gaze firm, deciding to delve deeper into the cave, uncover the truth, and thwart the masked individuals’ plot.

Inside the cave was complex and filled with traps and mechanisms; a slight misstep could trigger dangers.

Luo Yao, relying on his keen perception and exceptional swordsmanship, overcame these crises one by one, going step by step deeper.
