Chapter 360 Someone Exited
Three years have passed, and everything in the world is as usual.
Qingshan is the same as in previous years, shrouded in mist, occasionally seeing sword lights. Jing Jiu, who had been away for six years, was mentioned less and less often, just like when he was in Xueyuan. Instead, the West Sea Rebellion three years ago was often discussed. The Qingshan disciples were very curious about who the elder was and whether he saved Guodong.
There is no change in Shenmo Peak, except that there is an extra horse. The horse doesn't have much work to do. It just grazes and walks in the mountains all day long. The only annoying thing is that it is often harassed by the monkeys in the mountains.
One morning the horse walked to the bank of the Golden Whip Stream to drink water, and a naughty little monkey rode on its back, waving branches and making a cry that only Gu Qing could understand.
Yuan Qu came out of the woods, holding a few pieces of broken black gold stones in his hand, looked at the picture in front of him, after a moment of stupefaction, a joyful expression appeared on his face.
When the sword light fell, Gu Qing appeared, looking at the broken black stone in his junior brother's hand, recalling the scene three years ago, he said with lingering fear, "Master... are you practicing sword again?"
Yuan Qu said happily: "Yes, Master's realm is even stronger now."
Lu Qing thought to herself that this is indeed something worth celebrating, but why is she so happy?
Yuan Qu pointed to the horse by the stream and said, "Brother, you didn't see what this is?"
Gu Qing was stunned before he understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "The matter of Fenghou is a pleasure for ordinary people, and it has nothing to do with you and me."
Yuan Qu said helplessly: "Omen! I think this omen is very good."
Gu Qing knew what he was talking about.
Zhao Layue was going to go out to attend the Zhongzhou faction meeting, and said she wanted to go and see it.
It would be fine if she just looked at it, although she didn't know whether she wanted to look at Bai Zao or who, but everyone knew that her goal must be the Immortal Book of Longevity.
The Zhongzhou faction held a 30,000-year meeting, inviting the world's sects to participate, and presented the immortal talisman as a reward for asking. But not all ascetics have the opportunity. The rules of the Zhongzhou Sect are very clear, requiring practitioners who participate in the Dao Dao Conference not to practice for more than sixty years, and at the same time, the realm cannot be lower than Jindan Consummation.
The golden elixir of the Zhongzhou School can be regarded as the first state of wandering in the Qingshan School.
This questioning conference can be regarded as an advanced version of the Meihui. The final winners of last year's Meihui also received special permission to participate.
Lu Qing couldn't remember who was the number one in the Taoist battle at the Meihui last year, but he remembered very clearly that the winner of the chess game was Jing Zong's sparrow girl.
He Zhan no longer plays chess, Tong Yan and Jing Jiu don't show up, Jing Zongque Niang is the undisputed number one chess player in the world.
Guo Dashi in Chaoge City even thinks that she has already reached the level of Tong Yan when she was in Meihui that year.
According to the rules of the Zhongzhou faction, each sect can select a qualified young ascetic to participate in the Dao Dao Conference. Of course, the Zhongzhou faction itself is not restricted.
With such strict selection criteria, many small sects can't even select a single person, and even big factions like Kunlun and Daze can only select one or two people.
There are quite a few qualified disciples of the Green Mountain Sect.
It can be seen from this that the Qingshan Sect is worthy of being the leader of the orthodox practice world, and its profound heritage is beyond comparison with other sects.
There are many disciples who are qualified to participate in the Asking Conference, but there is only one place, so the competition is naturally fierce.
At the very beginning, many eyes fell on Liangwang Peak.
Disciples such as Guo Nanshan, You Siluo, and Gu Han have all stepped into the wild world.
Later, Shenmo Peak passed the sword book to Zhufeng, saying that Zhao Layue was going to participate, and all eyes fell on her.
As the master of Shenmo Peak, Zhao Layue wanted to compete with the disciples of the younger generation, which naturally aroused some criticism.
Elder Zhufeng thought to himself, who doesn't want the fairy talisman, if you can go, why can't we go?
In the end, when they looked at their own house, there was no one who met the requirements...
Until this time, many people remembered that Zhao Layue was much younger than Guo Nanshan and the others.
...
...
Zhao Layue came out of the cave, took the broken black stone handed over by Yuan Qu, looked at it carefully for a long time, frowned slightly, and seemed a little dissatisfied.
Gu Qing stepped forward to salute, and took out two paintings.
Zhao Layue threw the broken black stone in her hand to the bottom of the cliff, and took a look at the painting.
"This is the ancient painting that was stolen from the Li family." Gu Qing introduced: "This painting has been recorded in many books and is very famous. It has been hidden by the Li family. His friend was staring at this painting from the beginning, so he didn't do anything when he sold it."
The content of that painting is the starry night and the old mountain, there is mist beside the cliff, and there is a girl holding an umbrella in the mist.
The girl's eyebrows and eyes are like lines, she looks gentle, but her eyes are extremely indifferent. The combination of two emotions is very impressive.
The technique used by the painter is very complicated, the color blocks of the night and the old mountains are extremely bold, but the lines of the stars and the girl are extraordinarily delicate.
It is easy for viewers to feel that the painter's mood at that time was as complicated as his technique.
"The man was extremely cautious. He didn't make a move. He just waited in the south. It really took some effort to find out." Lu Qing continued.
Zhao Layue looked at the painting quietly without speaking.
This painting is naturally excellent, otherwise it would not have such a great reputation.
She was born in a noble family, so she can see it naturally.
But she felt something was wrong - the woman in the painting seemed to have seen it somewhere. The problem is that although the painting is well preserved, the edges are still yellow and brittle, and it is extremely old. The woman in the painting must have been hundreds or even thousands of years ago. Where could she have seen it?
She thought for a while and said, "Send it back."
This is something Jing Jiu confessed, so Gu Qing will naturally handle it properly.
She went on to look at the second picture, which was a sketched portrait, which should have been painted not long ago.
After several years, the shutter man finally completed the portrait of the Xuanyin Sect, no, it should be the new leader of the Xuanyin Sect.
The leader claimed to be King Ming, about thirty years old, suddenly appeared in Lengshan about ten years ago, his magic power was astonishing, and he improved extremely fast.
Most importantly, it is said that he has been fully recognized by Lieyang Banner.
Being able to fully display the power of Lieyang Banner is almost equal to the combat power of a Heaven-reaching Realm.
Yuan Qu was listening to Lu Qing's words, feeling a strong sense of frustration, and couldn't help feeling a little dazed.
Both he and Gu Qing have good cultivation talents, and they have to meet a master, and their realm has improved quite quickly. Gu Qing is about to break through to the wandering realm, and he is not too far behind.
"Most of the power of the evil way is faked by foreign objects, just like if I don't suppress Furth Sword now, I can also fight against Po Hai, but what's the point of that?"
Zhao Layue said: "With a person's age and cultivation base, he must pay a huge price to completely subdue Lieyang Banner. No matter how difficult it is to step into the real way, it is not up to you and me."
Yuan Qu was thoughtful, suddenly thought of a possibility, and said: "This man is called King Ming, does it have anything to do with the worship of Ming in the imperial city?"
Lu Qing shook his head and said: "The Ming family conducted a special self-examination a few days ago, and there is no such person in the family."
Looking at the face of the young devil in the portrait, Zhao Layue thought to herself, why did this look like she had seen it somewhere.
This time she finally remembered.
When she was in Chaoge City, she specially asked her family to paint a portrait in Qingtian treasury.
"Oh it's you."
Looking at the fierce eyes of that young devil, she thought to herself where is King Ming, and the other way around.
Thinking of what happened back then, she raised her head and glanced at Gu Qing, feeling a little displeased.
Lu Qing's heart skipped a beat, thinking what did Master do wrong?
He has always acted cautiously and prudently, making few mistakes.
He has already realized that when Shigu looked at him with this look, she was actually looking at Master.
Zhao Layue didn't explain, thinking that I said back then that we should cut the weeds and root them out, but you didn't listen...
suddenly.
A clear sword cry came from Tianguang Peak and spread throughout the Nine Peaks.
Disciples who want to participate in the Zhongzhou School Wendao Conference should go to Tianguang Peak to participate in the sword test at this time.
Zhao Layue stepped on the Forsi sword and left through the air.
Lu Qing and Yuan Qu followed closely behind.
The summit is quiet.
After a while, the white cat walked out of the cave, and the bell around its neck made a crisp sound.
Han Chan lay on top of its head, rolling its eyes, staring at the bell, very curious.
The white cat walked to the edge of the cliff and looked at Bihu Peak in the distance, with serious eyes.
The sword trial was about to begin, the atmosphere of the Green Mountain Formation changed, and the thunderstorm on the top of Bihu Peak disappeared.
The piece of Thunder Soul Wood that was left on Bihu Peak was about to become familiar, and it felt that it should go back and stare at it.
The problem is that those sections of Thunder Soul Wood are still on the Defeng Peak, what should I do?
Jing Jiu, why haven't you come back yet?
...
...
This time, the Qingshan Sword Trial was still held in the Sword Forest under Tianguang Peak, but because of the requirement of realm, there were far fewer disciples participating.
I don't know why, but the cloud and fog are very heavy today, and the elders of Shiyue Peak tried several times but couldn't clear it away.
Nan Wang was a little impatient, saying what was the matter, and kept urging the late banquet.
Today, Qingrong Peak held a red leaf banquet, and she was in a hurry to go back to drink.
Chi Yan glanced at the cloud and mist, felt that something would happen today, frowned slightly, and raised his hand to signal the beginning of the sword fight.
The flying sword broke through the clouds and brought out countless beautiful lines. Numerous cracks were cut on the stone pillars, and stone chips fell down.
Those who participated in the sword test were all disciples of Liangwang Peak.
The sword fight was still fierce and exciting, but it wasn't anything dangerous, especially compared to the sword-testing meeting that Jing Jiu participated in back then, it was more peaceful.
A sword light as blue as the sea converged in the fog.
The fog gradually dispersed, Guo Nanshan and You Siluo walked out, looked at each other and smiled.
Guo Nanshan is the first disciple of the head real person, and also the chief of Liangwang Peak. His realm is extremely strong, and he won the final victory as a matter of course.
Then, all eyes turned to the end of the cliff.
There is the location of Shenmo Peak.
Zhao Layue arrived with a sword.
...
...
Thick fog enveloped the stone forest, blocking sight.
Zhao Layue and Guo Nanshan stood on two stone pillars more than ten miles apart.
This is already the limit of Youye Chujing.
No one would think that Zhao Layue bullied the young with the big ones, no matter her age or the time she practiced, she was not as good as Nanshan.
It's just that she continued the inheritance of Shenmo Peak back then and became the disciple of Master Jingyang, so she became the teacher.
But Guo Nanshan didn't dare to underestimate this little aunt, and he didn't want to lose.
This time all the geniuses in the world will go to the Zhongzhou faction's Dao Dao Conference. Immortal talisman can increase lifespan is naturally a very important reason, but the more important reason is that after obtaining celestial talisman, one can get in touch with the aura left by the immortal, and can perceive higher truths, which is of great significance to practice.
The dense fog blocked the line of sight, so he could only use his sword sense to determine the opponent's position. In the eyes of many people, this would be beneficial for crossing Nanshan.
No matter how strong Zhao Layue's talent is, the time to practice is not as good as passing through Nanshan Mountain, and the scope that sword sense can cover must be limited.
The mountain wind blew the mist, her eyes were closed, and her hair became more messy.
Suddenly, she opened her eyes and looked somewhere deep in the fog.
A red sword light suddenly appeared, turning the dense fog into morning glow.
Firth sword broke through the air and left.
"Alas?"
Nan Wang suddenly raised his head and looked into the fog.
For her, a battle in the wandering realm was not worth paying attention to, but when Zhao Layue drew his sword, she found some problems.
The color of Firth's sword is a bit wrong.
...
...
Fog breaks.
Firsi sword quietly stopped in front of Guo Nanshan.
Guo Nanshan's eyes are very complicated.
Before he found Zhao Layue's location, her sword arrived.
The Firth Sword being able to stop in front of his eyes meant that he could do more things.
Taking in is harder than letting go.
Guo Nanshan didn't understand how she was able to pass through layers of thick fog and determine her position.
If it is another sect, such as the Zhongzhou faction or the masters of Daze, at this time, it may be possible to protect the body with magic weapons, block the flying swords, and then strive for a turnaround.
Qingshan doesn't care about these, what he pays attention to is that there will be no return.
This sword fight was naturally won by Zhao Layue.
There was a long silence all around, and then the exclamation sounded.
Brother Nanshan actually lost.
This is really unimaginable.
The key point is that Zhao Layue who did this is still very young and has not practiced for a long time.
The most touching thing is that thinking that the person who won Nanshan is Zhao Layue, people have a feeling of taking it for granted.
In Qingshan School, the name Zhao Layue means genius.
The youngest peak master, the youngest You Yejing... Countless unimaginable practice records were all created by her.
After Master Jing Jing's uncle, there is no one who can compare with her.
When Jing Jiu returned from the snowy plain, his prestige was even greater, but as his realm stagnated and disappeared for several years, that situation has long since disappeared.
Looking at Zhao Layue walking out of the fog, many people were in awe and admiration. This is the real genius of the Qingshan Sect.
I don't know how many people are reluctant to think of the genius disciple who retreated on the peak behind him.
Only he can overwhelm Zhao Layue.
This is the view of many people.
...
...
The clouds and mist suddenly dispersed, and the sun shone down, illuminating Tianguang Peak.
Suddenly a rainbow appeared on the peak.
There is a man under the rainbow.
How is this going?
Nan Wang raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that today was interesting.
Chi Yan frowned slightly, realizing that something really happened today.
Bai Rujing, Mochi and other Tianguang Peak elders stood up abruptly, their expressions a little excited.
News spreads faster than clouds.
Everyone in Qingshan was shocked and speechless, and looked towards the peak.
Bai Rujing looked at the top of the peak and said with emotion: "It was like this when I entered it back then, but it hasn't changed in any way. The firmness of Dao heart is really unparalleled in the world."
The person at the top of the peak is Zhuo Rusui.
He is the closed disciple of Daoist Master Qingshan, who claims to be the most talented in a hundred years.
From Beihexuan, he entered the bank of Xijianxi, and worshiped the real master as his teacher, and then he began to retreat.
This closure lasted for more than twenty years.
He finally came out today.
