Chapter 60 The Wind Rises From Yishui Terrace
(Still released first and then repaired)
In the first battle of Jianzong's great victory in the Western Expedition, a total of forty sword repairmen were sacrificed.
As a result, forty-seven long swords were added to the red sandalwood sword box carried by the disciples of the Sword Sect on this day—although the single-sword style is the mainstream, the multi-sword style always exists.
Jian Zongjian repairs the world.
This is by no means empty words.
In the case that the number of people is not dominant, the battle loss ratio of more than ten times can reflect the reputation of this praise.
You must know that the opponent they are facing is not the stinky fish and rotten shrimp of the ordinary sect, but the Huanling monk who is also the Taoist sect.
And they, the old and the young, are strictly speaking the weakest group of sword cultivators in the sword sect.
But even so, they still played almost crushing performance.
Among them are the reasons why Huanling cultivator's morale broke down and ran away, and he had no intention of resisting, and it was also because Jianzong Jianxiu was good at killing.
In addition, a large part of the reason is due to Lu Qingshan's amazing killing efficiency.
This time, the sword sect killed 700 enemies in the seven realms, and nearly half of them were done by Lu Qingshan alone.
Such an outstanding record made everyone look at Lu Qingshan with a little more admiration.
The people that sword cultivators admire the most are those who can kill more than they can. If you beat yourself in the field you are best at, you can't help but feel a little bit of admiration.
…
The first battle of Yishuitai ended.
The sword cultivators began to tidy up the mess, while waiting for the real main force of Jianzong to enter the spirit.
Here, in a pavilion of Yishui Terrace.
"Peak Lord Haoran." Lu Qingshan greeted Sword Master Taibai with an extremely polite attitude.
He knew clearly in his heart what Peak Master Haoran had paid for defending Yishui Terrace.
Although according to what Sword Immortal Qingyun said, this does not mean that Peak Master Haoran has lost his way of sword immortality, but it will undoubtedly bring many difficulties to his journey of sword immortality.
The more aware of these things, the more lofty the respect for Peak Master Haoran will be.
For many monks, risking their own life may not be a big deal, but for them, it is often worse than taking their lives.
"Young Master Lu is being polite." Peak Lord Haoran was also very polite and returned a salute.
In terms of cultivation, he is far better than Lu Qingshan.
But in terms of status, the Young Sect and the Peak Master should be on the same level in a sense.
"Sovereign, have you reached Zhongling?" Lu Qingshan cautiously asked for confirmation.
He already knew about the fall of Yishui, the ruler of Xuanwu.
The leader of Haoran Peak, Li Shiyi, was silent for a moment, without hiding anything, nodded and said: "Yes, it was the suzerain who made a secret move to help me kill Xuanwu master."
"Can the sword fairy really leave no trace?" Lu Qingshan couldn't help asking.
Not to mention the Sword Immortal, even if he makes a move now, the momentum will resound throughout the world.
The stronger the strength, the greater the momentum aroused by the shot. This is a theorem and it is inevitable.
"Other sword immortals are not allowed, only the old suzerain can," Li Shiyi smiled, and revealed some secrets that belonged exclusively to the sword sect to his young young sect, "Because, the suzerain's sword is called... ..”
"Fuyao!"
"Fuyao, you can't see it when you look at it, you don't know it when you move it, and what you touch is endless, and you don't feel it when you touch it."
"When it touches things, it passes unruly, and it follows the passing and reconciliation. It feels sick but not bloody."
"Visible or intangible, it all depends on the old suzerain's thought." Li Shiyi explained.
The secret of Fuyao, even in Jianzong, few people know the inside story.
After all, Xie Qingyun seldom made a move, let alone deliberately revealing the secret of Fuyao.
The reason why Li Shiyi knew so clearly was because he was the oldest sword cultivator in the Sword Sect if the third life was counted.
The longer you live, the more you see nature.
"Fuyao..." Lu Qingshan muttered, "I see."
Taoist artifacts in the world each have their own uniqueness.
One of Fuyao's miracles is "invisible".
After learning the news, Lu Qingshan's first reaction was sudden joy.
Because, this "invisible" miraculousness perfectly fits the current situation.
The news of Sword Immortal Qingyun's visit to Zhongling in person must not be revealed until the final decisive moment.
Once exposed, it will trigger a chain reaction in the Eastern Region.
However, the difference in strength between the human race and the demon race in the middle spirit realm is so great that it requires the power of a sword fairy.
The two clashed, resulting in a contradiction that was difficult to resolve.
However, Fuyao's Xuanyi can take both into consideration very well.
It guaranteed that Xie Qingyun could hide in the dark and make a timely move.
Just like what was done in Yishuitai, cooperate with Li Shiyi to complete the sniper killing of Xuanwu Lord.
Of course, this kind of shot can only be limited to the situation where the strength is greatly suppressed.
Assuming Xie Qingyun wanted to attack Shangzhongling's "Zhenyu monk" Qinglong master without him even realizing it, that would be a fantasy.
But even if there are restrictions, this is definitely good news.
"The suzerain told me that the main force of the sword sect will be able to reach Zhongling in one day." Haoran peak master said.
Lu Qingshan nodded.
Although he is a young sect, he is still far from growing up.
The protagonists of this battle between the spirits are the two peak masters who will arrive one day after Jianzong: Ning Fengchen, Gu Qiu, and the Haoran peak master Li Shiyi who is standing in front of him at this moment, and...
Hiding in the dark, truly in control of the overall situation, and ready to go, Qingyun Sword Immortal, Xie Qingyun!
…
a day later.
In the cross-domain teleportation circle that the Haoran Peak Lord bought in exchange for a smooth road, a flash of inspiration flashed.
Sword cultivators with strong breaths showed their figures in the aura.
Everyone carries a red sandalwood sword box, and everyone's eyes are full of fighting spirit.
The number of cases is only two thousand, but no one dares to treat them as a mere two thousand people.
As far as Jianzong is concerned, even if it is only a hundred sword cultivators, it is a torrent of steel.
Under this torrent of steel, no one can fight head-on.
Not to mention thousands of sword cultivators.
The area of Zhongling has never received such a group of powerful sword cultivators since ancient times.
Because of this kind of sword repair, once thousands of people set foot on other regions, it will be regarded as an invasion and start a war.
It's like driving a nuclear submarine into the territory of another country. Even if you repeatedly say that you have no malicious intentions, other countries will definitely not let you enter the territory.
Yishui Terrace, a gathering of heroes from the Sword Sect.
This is the most neat gathering of Jianzong in ten thousand years.
In addition to Li Shiyi, Ning Fengchen, and Gu Qiu, the three peak masters, there are also Wuju, Zhibei, Jianhuang, Shangyuan, Junbujian and other well-known sword cultivators of the eight realms among the sword sects, all of whom boast their combat power.
These people are the leaders of Jianzong's single-standing human clan sect for thousands of years, and the confidence to look down on the Eastern Region. Let alone ordinary sects, even most monks in other Taoist sects cannot compare with them.
A war like a meat grinder is about to usher in, but there is no panic on the faces of the disciples of Jianzong.
It is the tradition of sword cultivators to be happy when they hear the battle, and it is something that goes deep into their bones, like eating and drinking.
Do you get nervous when I let you eat?
That's the reason.
"Lu Qingshan, Li Shiyi, come!" A voice suddenly sounded from two different pavilions in Yishui Terrace.
Those two pavilions are naturally where Lu Qingshan and Haoran Peak Lord are located.
In one of the pavilions, Lu Qingshan sat cross-legged.
He is racing against time to penetrate the secret sword.
This war is too huge, and his six-level cultivation base is no longer enough.
It is necessary to break through the fit.
But his problem now is not experience.
Lu Qingshan's current experience value savings have exceeded one billion, which is enough for him to squander for a long time.
The problem is that if he doesn't break through the fit, he has nowhere to spend his experience.
If you want to break through the fusion, you must condense the seeds of the legal domain.
Lu Qingshan has comprehended the four secret swords at present, and combined with his four original true meanings, it is just a matter of thought to condense the seeds of the legal domain.
But he also understands that if he doesn't comprehend the last two secret swords, then the seed of the legal domain he condensed will not be able to reach the extremely powerful level, and will have flaws.
Lu Qingshan didn't dare to neglect.
He has already suffered this loss once.
——He had already self-destructed the Dao Foundation once because of the problems with the exercises during the Qi refining period.
In addition, Li Qiubai also broke the way of the sword because of the lack of the way of the sword.
There is such a precedent, no matter how anxious he is, he is unwilling to let it go and can only continue to settle.
"Have you started?" After the voice sounded, Lu Qingshan opened his eyes and muttered softly.
Whoosh!
His figure changed, and he quickly left the small building.
Inside the main building of Yishui Terrace.
Several figures appeared.
Ning Fengchen, Gu Qiu, Li Suyi and Lu Qingshan.
After the four people arrived, they were all silent.
Because the real protagonist has not yet appeared.
In a moment, a shadow appeared in front of them like a teleportation.
The four looked up one after another.
The long sword hears its majesty but does not see its shape, the dragon sees the head but does not see the tail, the master of the sword sect, Xie Qingyun.
"I don't need to say much about the meaning of this Western Expedition, the four of you should all understand it.
The spirit of the Zhongling is surging, and the people are dying. It is the moment when our swordsmen drink blood with long swords. "
"When it is broken, it is broken. If the spirit is not guarded, there will be endless troubles. My Jianzong has no bad habit of leaving hidden dangers to future generations."
"The candidates for the Western Expedition were personally selected by Ning Fengchen and Gu Qiu, all of whom are good at fighting." Xie Qingyun looked at Ning Fengchen and Gu Qiu.
The two nodded in response.
Xie Qingyun paused, and with a wave of his hand, thick clouds were formed, and a topographical map of Zhongling was drawn in the air.
"Longcheng Pass has fallen, and the demons are now taking Longcheng Pass as their base, crossing Xiantian Ridge, and are occupying the western part of Zhongling."
"The fall of Longchengguan was too sudden and without warning. The demons caught it off guard. The western part of Zhongling couldn't organize an effective resistance in a short period of time." Xie Qingyun tapped her fingertips, representing the western region A large area of the cloud turned clear to black.
"At present, both Mangzhou and Lizhou in the west have fallen. Zhongling has organized a "death squad" to gather in the three cities of Hutou, Niujiao, and Horseshoe in Youzhou to delay the advance of the demons.. ...." In the cloud map, there are three cities lined up neatly from north to south, suddenly lit up.
Xie Qingyun continued: "The human cities behind these three cities are organizing a comprehensive evacuation and retreat. According to Zhongling's idea, they want to retreat to the Changye Mountains and release all the western areas of Zhongling to the demons. family to buy precious time."
"The reason why the territory is exchanged for time is because Zhongling intends to build a heart-reaching city on the Changye Mountain Range as a new Dragon City Pass to resist the heart demons.
This will be the most important node of Zhongling's battle, and it will also be the place where we will have the largest battle with the demons. "
The eyes of Lu Qingshan and the others fell on the cloud map, thinking deeply.
It has to be said that the head monks at Zhongling's side at this time are indeed experienced and decisive. Even though the invasion of the demons came so suddenly, they still calmed down in a short time, and according to Zhongling's terrain and specific conditions, A corresponding strategic response has been formulated.
Compared with the power suppression of the demons, the human race has the convenience of the terrain, the familiarity of the environment, the sword fairy hidden in the dark, and the determination to defend the frontier and fight to the death. This is the advantage of the human monks.
In the end, we can see which side can turn the advantage into a victory.
"At present, there are two most important things for us," Xie Qingyun stretched out a finger, and said in a deep voice: "One, to delay the time for the demons to capture the three cities of Tiger Head, Ox Horn, and Horseshoe, for the sake of the Chinese people in the Western Regions." Evacuate to buy time."
"Second, the establishment of Zhixin City also takes time."
"Buying time is what we have to do."
"Feng Chen, Gu Qiu, Su Yi, the three of you will divide the sword cultivation expedition of this sect into three, each lead a team, and settle in the three cities to buy seven days for Zhongling."
"...Qing Shan, I have received news that Candle Dragon of the Western Regions has also sent forces to support Zhong Ling, and is willing to take our Sword Sect as the leader to coordinate and cooperate with our actions.
Among the leaders of Zhulong this time, there is a monk named Mo Yan, and he sent news that he is very familiar with you..."
"In this case, I will assign you a task, and you will coordinate with them."
"In addition, the group of sword repairmen you brought from Jianzong this time are also led by you."
"The three peak masters are the main force, as for you, you are mobile, moving in the rear and on the flanks."
Lu Qingshan was startled, and could only nod his head in agreement.
To say it is mobile is a nice way of saying it.
In fact, it should be described as "logistics".
Xie Qingyun glanced at Lu Qingshan, who was somewhat dispirited, "Why, do you have a different opinion?"
Lu Qingshan shook his head with a wry smile, "Don't dare, Qingshan naturally obeys the command."
"That's good." Xie Qingyun looked away with a half-smile.
Sword cultivators are straight, but that doesn't mean they are pedantic and don't know how to adapt
People who don't know how to adapt will not live long in the world of comprehension.
Xie Qingyun is deliberately suppressing Lu Qingshan!
He can naturally see that Lu Qingshan is extremely outstanding.
But it is precisely because it is so good that it must be pressed when it is time to press.
In this battle between the two domains, even the three peak masters of Jianzong are not confident that they can return to the eastern domain alive, let alone a small cultivator of Huashen?
No matter how good he is, in front of Boundless Moxiu, any accident may happen.
Lu Qingshan is young, and he is only over twenty-three years old since he practiced Taoism. It is like a reincarnation of a fairy to enter the realm of cultivation, and killing people across borders is even more common.
It can be foreseen that the eight realms will not be the end for such a sword cultivator, but only another starting point for him.
For Jianzong, such a person is the guarantee of standing proudly in the human race for ten thousand years in the future.
Xie Qingyun is very old, over 20,000 years old.
Of course, for a cultivator of his level, more than 20,000 years old is nothing. If he is willing, he can at least live another 20,000 years in peace.
The point is that he doesn't want to.
If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening.
A sword cultivator would not be willing to sit around and wait to die.
Xie Qingyun's desire to seek in the way of the sword has never stopped.
Searching for the way of the sword is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat.
Because of Jianzong, because of the Eastern Territory, he has guarded Yumen Pass for thousands of years, and it is difficult to improve his swordsmanship.
Once the second Dao Demon War is over, if Jianzong is still there and he is still there, Xie Qingyun will definitely choose to leave the sect to seek Taoism.
And before he left, he had to cultivate a sword cultivator who could lead the sword sect.
This is his responsibility as the suzerain of Jianzong.
At present, the other six peak masters of the Sword Sect except him, although they all have the opportunity to become Sword Immortals, but they each have their own problems, and in his eyes, they are not as hopeful as Lu Qingshan.
The only Xia Daoyun who can compare with Lu Qingshan is the blood of the Great Xia royal family, so he cannot lead the sword sect.
What's more, according to his observation, Lu Qingshan's personality is indeed suitable for the position of the master of Jianzong.
Although this kid has the uninhibitedness of a sword cultivator, he has a bit more unique careful thoughts and dark belly than ordinary sword cultivators.
This character is not necessary for a sword cultivator, but it is indispensable for a sect.
In Xie Qingyun's eyes, Lu Qingshan is the most suitable person to lead the Sword Sect in the next ten thousand years.
Therefore, he must not let him run around in such a battlefield where the seven realms are inferior to dogs and the eight realms run all over the ground, otherwise, if there is a mistake, even if they defeat the demons, they will also lose the ten thousand years in the future. The foundation of the sect is by no means a profit.
Sword and blood are the beliefs of sword cultivators, sword cultivator's sword heart, Xie Qingyun can't hinder Lu Qingshan's sword heart, so he didn't object to Lu Qingshan's plan to support Zhongling.
The method he chose was to minimize the risks that Lu Qingshan might face in terms of actions.
However, Xie Qingyun didn't know that some people are born to make trouble.
Even if he doesn't look for trouble, often things will come to him on his own initiative.
How effective his curve-saving strategy will be is still unknown.
