<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Naturally, Su Jingzhen was unaware that his identity had already been exposed to the Sword Master. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He also didn't know that the higher-ups of the various factions had already set a grand plan in motion to target him.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he followed Lin Ying into the Sword Qi Corridor, he was immediately enveloped by an extremely sharp sword qi. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Looking around, the place resembled a sunless underworld. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The sky was gray and shrouded in a layer of fog. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Just as he had initially imagined, it was a vast space, but the overall atmosphere was desolate and lifeless.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">They stood on the ground, with endless ruins and withered old trees in the distance. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The space was filled with a mix of decaying yet dense spiritual energy and various sharp sword intents. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If an ordinary cultivator were here, merely comprehending the sword intents permeating the void would likely allow them to grasp many powerful sword techniques.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen's divine consciousness spread out, but within a radius of several dozen miles, he didn't detect the presence of any other teams.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"In the Sword Qi Corridor, this area is probably a very remote region. We should head towards the center. The opportunity I seek is also in the central area," 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying said, her excitement growing once again after entering the Sword Qi Corridor.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Without waiting for Su Jingzhen and the others to ask, she continued, "The so-called Sword Qi Corridor is actually the resting place of the past sages of Sword Land. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Their legacies remain here, and through the unique techniques of Sword Land, some special physiques can also be inherited. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This time, my target is one such special physique!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As she spoke, Lin Ying's tone grew increasingly excited.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen and the others were slightly shocked. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">They had thought that Lin Ying was after some kind of treasure or powerful legacy. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">They hadn't expected her ambition to extend to a special physique. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But upon reflection, no legacy could compare to the power of an innate special physique. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">For example, Qiu Yaoyao's Heavenly Dragon Tribulation Body and Yan Xia's Water Spirit Saint Body-these special physiques allowed their cultivation to progress at an astonishing rate.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, they were curious as to what special body Lin Ying was aiming for. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen knew that Zhang Xiu could activate the Jian Ling physique, and Saintess Qing Yue seemed to be able to do the same. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Therefore, Lin Ying couldn't possibly have the audacity to compete with Saintess Qing Yue.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As if sensing their curiosity, Lin Ying added, "My target is a special physique called the 'Shadow Immortal Spirit Body'. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Ever since I started cultivating after my spiritual awakening, I've known that I have the potential for a special physique. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, it has never been fully awakened. I changed my name to Lin Ying to remind myself that I have the potential to awaken this physique."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As she spoke, a hint of resentment flashed in her tone and her aura suddenly became elusive and eerie.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen and the others were stunned for a moment. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This was most likely her true demeanor. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">On the surface, she was the radiant and righteous Flying Snow Sword Immortal, but in reality, she was an innate shadow assassin. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Clearly, Lin Ying had been hiding her true strength all along.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen couldn't help but sigh. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Among the countless disciples of a major power and the rank of the Ten Great Saintesses, it was not easy for anyone to rise to prominence. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even the lowest-ranked Saintess possessed such cunning and strength. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was hard to imagine how powerful Saintess Qing Yue must be.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the same time, Su Jingzhen felt a slight sense of relief. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He had always subconsciously felt that his rapid advancement and various displays of power were too outrageous, making him a potential target for old monsters who might want to dissect him. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But now, it seemed that there were plenty of outrageous individuals, and he was merely one of the more conspicuous ones.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen then asked curiously, "So, is Hong Yu also targeting this physique?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying shook her head. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Not necessarily. These special physiques aren't something that just anyone can get. It depends on fate. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The reason I've set my sights on the Shadow Immortal Spirit Body is that long ago, I could sense a faint connection with it in the Sword Qi Corridor. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It subtly resonated with me. However, most people don't know about it."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After a pause, she added, "As for Junior Sister Hong Yu, her ultimate target is me. Whatever I want, she will do her best to sabotage it. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If given the chance, she wouldn't hesitate to kill me. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The position of Sword Land's Saintess is always limited to ten. If I die, she will secure her place among the Ten Great Saintesses".

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen nodded silently. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He roughly understood the situation. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying wanted to obtain the Shadow Immortal Spirit Body, while he was focused on finding Zhang Xiu. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Since these special bodies were generally located in the central area of the Sword Qi Corridor, their goals didn't conflict.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As they discussed, the group rushed towards the central area of the Sword Qi Corridor. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The peripheral area was vast, and they didn't encounter any other teams on the way. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, as they approached the central area, the sword qi permeating the void became denser and more powerful.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The other four members of the group weren't sword cultivators, and their defenses weren't strong. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Their skin began to sting, and they had to form protective barriers just to survive the environment. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In contrast, Su Jingzhen and the others moved with ease.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The four of them felt increasingly bitter. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At this point, winning Lin Ying's favor was the least of their worries. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If they could reach their destination without becoming a burden or being abandoned by Lin Ying, it would be a blessing for them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As Mystic Immortal Realm cultivators, they were considered experts in the Emperor Realm and could dominate smaller regions. But now, for the first time, they felt completely weak.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Saintess, the sword intent ahead is getting sharper. The four of us were injured yesterday and haven't fully recovered yet. If a battle breaks out ahead, we might become a burden. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Perhaps we should stay here and search for opportunities on our own?" one of them suggested nervously.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Cultivators, especially those who had reached a certain level of cultivation, often had accurate premonitions. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The four of them looked at the desolate, misty landscape ahead of them and seemed to see their bleak future. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">They were truly afraid. No matter how great the rewards or opportunities were, they weren't worth risking their lives for.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Hearing this, Lin Ying suddenly stopped. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She narrowed her eyes and smiled at the four of them. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Her smile was breathtakingly beautiful, but it felt unsettling to the four of them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"What are you saying? Since we are a team, we will enter together, leave together, and act together. As for the sharp sword intent in the void, that's my fault," Lin Ying said.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As she spoke, she formed a hand seal and seven illusory small swords appeared in the void. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">These swords flew towards Su Jingzhen and the others and merged with their bodies. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Immediately, Su Jingzhen and the others could no longer feel the sharp sword intent in the void. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">It was as if Lin Ying had single-handedly shielded them from it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen was once again astonished. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The techniques of Sword Land were indeed impressive. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At least within the Sword Qi Corridor, the Sword Land disciples had a significant advantage.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At the same time, he inwardly sneered. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After entering the Sword Qi Corridor, Lin Ying - or rather, all the core disciples of Sword Land - gradually showed their true colors. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">These four had come this far, but now they wanted to play it safe. How ridiculous. Cannon fodder should have the consciousness of cannon fodder.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Like him, Qiu Yaoyao, and Shengana, they wouldn't say much. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">But if Lin Ying truly dared to treat the three of them as cannon fodder, she would surely regret it.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Lin Ying then smiled and said, "Now, the four of you should have no worries."
