Chapter 174 Baizhang Cliff
The towering ancient peaks pierce the sky, surrounded by clouds and mist, and filled with fairy air. The peaks are faintly visible.
Since that day, Qin Xuan has been practicing on Taixuan Peak. Even when Wang Han and other family members asked to see him, he did not leave.
They came to Yunxiao Sect just to compete for the throne, but Qin Xuan had only one way, which was to explore the peak of martial arts. Moreover, he did not like to be bound and was always free, so he naturally refused.
There are three major fairy peaks in Tianyu Country, namely Taixuan Peak, Lingjiu Peak, and Tianjian Peak.
Lingjiu Peak, Qin Xuan is very familiar with it. Three years ago, in order to break through his own confinement, he went to Lingjiu Peak alone to absorb the power of ice.
There is snow all year round, and it is extremely cold, like a world of ice and snow. It is also there that Qin Xuan met Fen Lao. If so, Lingjiu Peak has a very deep connection with him.
Taixuan Peak, according to legend, was the first mountain opened up by the first generation of the sect master Yun Xiaozi. At that time, he was a legend in the eyes of countless people in Tianyu Country. He rose among the people and was later praised as the best in the world.
As for Tianjian Peak, it is even more legendary and psychedelic.
Tianjian Peak, named after the sword, has a mountain shape like a sword, sharp and sharp. The vast space is filled with strong sword energy, rushing straight to the nine-day cloud, which can be called the best of Tianyu.
Qingtian Sword Sect was established based on Tianjian Peak. Many outstanding disciples are proud to climb Tianjian Peak. It is a paradise of swords and is extremely beneficial to the comprehension of the sword. However, even if they climbed Tianjian Peak, few people can truly comprehend the sword.
On this day, Qin Xuan left Taixuan Peak and came to the foot of Tianjian Peak.
Qingtian Sword Sect is the only one among the four major sects that specializes in swordsmanship. Its swordsmanship is the strongest in Tianyu. A large part of the reason is because of Tianjian Peak, a unique holy place for swordsmanship practice. Countless swordsmen come here to climb Tianjian Peak.
All the disciples of Qingtian Sword Sect are swordsmen. Their personalities are like swords, sharp and arrogant. Few people can make them admire them. Even people from the same sect often fight.
Yunxiao Sect has a road to heaven, which means to ascend to heaven in one step. It is a major symbol of Yunxiao Sect. Similar to Yunxiao Sect, Qingtian Sword Sect has Baizhang Cliff, which is also famous in Tianyu.
Baizhang Cliff is a famous place in Qingtian Sword Sect. There are countless steps on the cliff. If you want to go to Qingtian Sword Sect, you need to step on the sword to the top of the mountain. If you are not strong enough, you will fall into the cliff and never recover.
According to the time of climbing the cliff, one can roughly detect the individual's talent, and the grades from low to high are: no-grade, ordinary grade, spiritual grade, king grade and emperor grade.
Generally speaking, no-grade and ordinary grade talents are relatively ordinary, and it is difficult to achieve great achievements in martial arts. Throughout their lives, they are only in the Yuanfu realm.
Compared with no-grade and ordinary grade, spiritual grade is extremely extraordinary. Disciples with spiritual grade talents are destined to step onto the top of the Yuanfu realm and become elders of the Qingtian Sword Sect.
Many Tianjiao who came to Baizhang Cliff put their hopes on spiritual grade talents. As long as they reach spiritual grade talents, they are considered to be extremely outstanding, admired by countless people, and destined to be extraordinary in the future.
As for Wang grade and Huang grade, they seem to exist only in legends. They are symbols of talents that go against the sky, and they may not meet one person in thousands of years.
Many young Tianjiao with extremely outstanding talents, after stepping into the Yuanfu realm, will come to Baizhang Cliff and climb the cliff with swords to test their own talents. Similarly, they also want to shine and attract countless people's attention.
Many powerful men who were originally unknown shone in front of the Baizhang Cliff and climbed the Baizhang Cliff in a very short time. From then on, they entered the sight of the world and became famous for a while.
Among them, some chose to enter the four major sects and eventually became elders to teach disciples to practice. Some chose to retreat from the world to practice, accumulating knowledge and then making a breakthrough. If they did not come out, they would be earth-shaking and achieve a great reputation.
For example, Xing Tian, Tianshou Old Man, Yunshan Old Man and other powerful men who were extremely famous in Tianyu had all been to the Baizhang Cliff and showed their peerless style.
Because of the special meaning of the Baizhang Cliff itself, many disciples paid great attention to this place. Whenever someone wanted to climb the cliff, many disciples would stop to watch, especially those who had long been famous. Once they appeared in front of the Baizhang Cliff, it would cause a great sensation.
Qin Xuan came to the bottom of the cliff, raised his head, and looked at the hundred-foot cliff in front of him. It was unreachable. There seemed to be a sword sound in the empty valley, which bounced back from the cliff and lasted for a long time.
Today, Qin Xuan is still dressed in white, spotless, floating like a fairy, standing there with his hands behind his back, revealing a trace of transcendent spirit, as if he was independent of the world and ascended to heaven.
"What a great Tianjian Peak, the sword energy shuttles through the valley, and the sword chants linger for a long time." A touch of amazement flashed in Qin Xuan's star-like eyes.
After dozens of days of practice at Taixuan Peak, Qin Xuan's cultivation became more unfathomable, but he could not take a step forward. It was as if there was an invisible confinement that tightly sealed his cultivation and prevented him from breaking through the Yuanfu.
But he was not too discouraged. He was natural. There would be a way when the car reached the mountain. Everything could be left to nature.
With a relaxed mood, Qin Xuan took a step forward. Not far away, many Qingtian Sword Sect disciples gathered together, exclaiming continuously, as if they were witnessing something.
On the 100-foot cliff, a young man in black was seen standing on a giant sword, his clothes fluttering. Countless sword qi surrounded the giant sword, like many stars surrounding the moon. The whole valley echoed with the terrifying sword whistling sound, and everyone's heart seemed to beat in unison, which was extremely mysterious.
"Brother Jianmo is so powerful. He climbed up with the sword energy in the valley, and the sword whistled continuously. How cool! I wonder if he can break the record!" A disciple exclaimed in surprise. Such talent is extremely rare.
"The shortest time is ten breaths, but that happened hundreds of years ago." An older-looking disciple slowly spoke. He has been in Qingtian Sword Sect for more than 20 years and is considered a very experienced disciple. However, he has never experienced the scene at that time, but only remembered the shocking number.
As soon as these words came out, many disciples' eyes flashed with confusion. Can it really be climbed up in ten breaths? Such a person should be called a god, right?
In fact, in the minds of many disciples, ten breaths is simply impossible. They think that the rumor is wrong and unreliable, because in the Qingtian Sword Sect's library, there is no history book that clearly writes the origin of this record.
"The shortest time in the past hundred years is twenty-five breaths. If Jian Mo can ascend within twenty breaths, he will at least have a high-level talent, and may even be a king-level talent. It will definitely shock the entire Qingtian Sword Sect." Someone else spoke up, with a rather uneasy tone. Will they witness the birth of a miracle?
"Jian Mo." Qin Xuan's eyes flashed, and some things instantly came to his mind.
Once on the round platform of the feast, he had a final battle with Jian Mo. At that time, he said that Jian Mo's sword heart was unstable and he only relied on the power of the sword. Now seeing Jian Mo again, he is very different from the past. He is full of sword energy and is sharp.
Everyone stared at the rising black-clothed young man with nervous eyes. The sword light on the giant sword was shining, extremely bright, and it was rapidly approaching the top of the cliff, as if in the next second.
"Are you going up?" Everyone held their breath, only the sound of their hearts beating, but their eyes never moved a bit, for fear of missing that historic scene.
Finally, a loud sword chanting sound rushed into the sky, and the giant sword swooped up like a long rainbow and climbed to the top of the hundred-foot cliff.
It took nineteen breaths to break the old record.
At this moment, the void was silent.
All the disciples froze there, staring blankly at the black-clothed young man who rushed into the sky. Even though they were prepared in their hearts, they still couldn't believe it when the miracle really happened in front of them.
A few seconds later, thunderous cheers rang out in the valley, echoing in the valley, like a surging tide, one after another.
They witnessed this historic scene with their own eyes, and they were extremely excited, as if the person who broke the record was themselves.
Nineteen breaths, although the record was not broken, so what, the rumor was unclear, but Jian Mo did it, which was something that they thought was impossible to accomplish.
At the top of the hundred-foot cliff, Jian Mo had a cold and handsome face, and a sharp color flashed in his eyes. Nineteen breaths, he did it!
In his mind, the ten-breath record was also unrealistic, so nineteen breaths was already a new record for him.
"Now, I should be catching up with him, right?" Jian Mo whispered in his heart. Since that battle, that peerless figure has been lingering in his mind, like a god of war, and that person is indeed like that, crushing the pride of Xuantian Palace, unparalleled, and shining.
"Jian Mo, congratulations, you have a king-level talent!" A voice came from a distance, and a white-robed old man flashed constantly, and soon came to Jian Mo's side, smiling at him, with admiration in his eyes.
Jian Mo turned around and saw the white-robed old man coming. A smile suddenly appeared on his cold and handsome face, and he clasped his fists and said, "Grand Elder."
The old man in the robe is the grand elder of the Qingtian Sword Sect, Jian Ze, who has a very high prestige in the Qingtian Sword Sect.
Jianze looked at Jianmo with an undisguised satisfaction in his eyes, and said: "I thought the last banquet competition would affect your character, but now it seems that I was overthinking."
Jianmo's eyes fixed, and he asked Jianze: "Grand Elder, is the record of ten breaths true?"
Hearing this, Jianze's expression froze, as if he had not expected Jianmo to ask this question. He took a deep breath and slowly said: "Yes, it really happened."
Jianmo's heart trembled when he heard this, and he felt that his heart was hit hard. This was said by the great elder himself, so it was naturally true. The legendary record actually happened.
"What kind of talent does it take to reach that level?" Jianmo murmured, a little absent-minded.
"Look! Who is that person? Is he going to climb a hundred-foot cliff too?" Suddenly, someone shouted loudly, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.
