Chapter 100: The Rooster Crows and the World Becomes Bright ( words long chapter, thank you for your monthly ticket support)

"First place in the second round, Cheng Xinzhan."

His name once again echoed throughout the city, and everyone cheered for him. It had been a long time since they had seen such a person practicing dual swords.

"The third game."

The voice of Huanzhu Tower Master sounded again. He paused, and countless flying sword practitioners in the city and towers were eager to try.

"Flying Sword Arena, those who practice flying sword techniques may enter. Those who wish to enter must draw their swords first."

Everyone was puzzled when they heard this. Instead of going on stage or appearing in the camera, he just drew his sword directly?
"All swordsmen must drop to the ground and strike their swords upwards. The ones with the highest number of thirty-six can enter the arena."

Everyone was stunned, and then they suddenly realized.

Yes, even the magic sword competition has thousands of people entering, so there will undoubtedly be even more flying swords. If the winner is really determined by fighting, it will take years.

Flying swords are meant to take the head of a person from a thousand miles away. Flying high and flying far are the simplest and most intuitive ways to choose the best. However, flying high is more difficult than flying far. Flying far can send a person a hundred miles away, but flying high is difficult to send a person a mile away. Now that there are spectators all over the city, flying high will determine the outcome faster.

The swordsmen on the top of the pavilion jumped down one after another, even those sitting on the walls or on the steps, they all jumped to the ground at this moment, as this moment didn't matter, otherwise when people in heaven were discussing who was higher, they would say that they had taken advantage of those on the ground.

It was like rain on the Huanzhu Tower, with thousands of people jumping down from all directions of the tall building, it was a spectacular sight.

Cheng Xinzhan, who was standing at the highest point, also jumped down and landed directly at the door of Haishi Restaurant.

Now everyone in the city knew Cheng Xinzhan. All the people around the Haishi Restaurant gathered around him, and the master and maid upstairs naturally noticed him as well.

Qingyu thought to herself, this Taoist Cheng is a really nice guy. The first place in the second round left the Sword Immortal and landed at the door of the restaurant. It can earn a lot of reputation for the restaurant. The wine tonight was not spent in vain.

Xiao Shiyi Niang couldn't think of all this. She quickly got up and went downstairs, then stood at the door and looked at what was happening.

Qingyu was a smart and perceptive person. When she saw Cheng Xinzhan just standing at the door but not coming in, she guessed something immediately. She hurriedly took out a chair from the cave stone and put it behind Cheng Xinzhan. He thanked her and sat on it. It was unknown what material this wooden chair was made of, but it gave off a faint fragrance that refreshed the mind and eyes.

The maid returned to her master's side, took out an identical chair, and helped her master sit down. At this moment, Xiao Shiyi Niang couldn't be more satisfied with Qingyu.

Cheng Xinzhan took the gourd from behind his waist, opened the gourd mouth, and a red sword light shot out.

"Taodu" hung beside him.

Everyone cheered loudly, and Xiao Shiyi Niang clapped her hands like everyone else. As expected, he wanted to compete in the third round!

"Raise your sword!"

The voice of Huanzhu Louzhu sounded.

Suddenly, a bright light flashed, and tens of thousands of flying swords flew up from the city, like meteors landing, like waterfalls flowing back, and like startled birds leaving the forest.

Tens of thousands of flying swords flew high up in the third heaven, with their tails trailing hundreds of feet in length, looking like a forest of spears under the moonlight.

Some flying swords are dazzling, with colorful tails, flying through the clouds and chasing the moon, like rainbows and neon lights.

Everyone was staring at the scene in a daze. The whole city was silent except for the sound of fireworks exploding. However, the fireworks could only add to the joy of the scene but could not attract even a glance.

There are few people in the world today who do not practice flying swords. Even those who are not focused on swordsmanship all carry one or two. At this moment, flying swords contributes to this beautiful scene, but it is just to add color. A thousand feet is a big hurdle, and more than half of the people cannot fly over a thousand feet.

After a thousand feet, the spectators could only vaguely see the tail from afar.

At this moment, the picture in the Moon-Reflecting Mirror changed again, revealing the first group of flying swords.

The mirror scene of Huanzhu Louzhu has the bright moon as its background, reflecting forty or fifty flying swords clearly.

On a roof, the bearded immortal Li Yuanhua was lying on tiles drinking wine. Five people were standing under the eaves. They were the five top disciples of Shushan.

Their flying swords were naturally all in the mirror, but at the same time, they also found a familiar flying sword appeared in the mirror.

The other four looked at Li Yingqiong. Yes, the sword was made during the Qin and Han dynasties. The blade was red and its arc was like a willow leaf. Under the moonlight, even the ancient seal characters on the sword could be seen clearly. They were the two words "Taodu".

The sword flew very high, at the top few, parallel to them.

Li Yingqiong's face showed no expression, but her eyes were filled with murderous intent. As soon as she thought about it, it appeared in the mirror that a silver-white flying sword that was also flying at the highest point suddenly changed its trajectory and turned to slash towards "Taodu".

Everyone was shocked. The flying sword was slender, with a blade but no handle. It seemed to have no shape or substance, and seemed to be a ball of condensed silver light.

Everyone knew that this was Ying Qiong's sword. It was the flying sword that Ying Qiong's master's wife had bestowed upon him after he lost "Tao Du" and returned to the mountains. It was made of a single piece of Taibai Gengjin. In terms of sharpness, it was even sharper than "Tao Du" and was called,

"Taibai holds a sharp point."

"Tao Du" was only concerned with flying high at the moment, and indeed did not expect that the sword beside him would suddenly attack. The speed of "Taibai Zhirui" was extremely fast, and it struck "Tao Du" horizontally. The latter suddenly spun and flew out dozens of feet, and the flying sword behind it instantly overtook it.

However, after "Taibai Zhirui" knocked "Taodu" away, he did not take the opportunity to go up, but instead attacked Taodu again.

Everyone saw this sudden scene and was a little confused for a moment. This was a fight for admission, not a sword fight!
But soon, some smart people reacted. These people's flying swords were extremely sharp and were rare weapons, but the sword masters' own mental power was not enough. They could only say that Gao Fei might not be able to defeat ordinary flying swords.

But now someone has given advice and taken action.

Wouldn't it be enough if we just knock down the other flying swords before we run out of strength?

As long as there are only thirty-six flying swords left in the sky, or even less, they can enter no matter how low they fly!

Li Yingqiong didn't mean that, but others thought so.

Then other flying swords began to attack left and right. Some flying swords were knocked away and collided with other flying swords.

For a moment, the flying swords suddenly became a mess, with a clanging sound, and countless flying swords fell down.

At this time, it formed a sharp contrast with the initial scene of thousands of swords flying, falling like rain, falling like stars, and dying like birds.

The flying swords fell into the city, causing bursts of exclamations. At this time, the owner of Huanzhu Tower took action. All the flying swords that could not stop their falling momentum were lifted up by a gentle force, slowly placed in the city, and then taken back by their respective sword masters.

Huanzhu Louzhu's face was not looking good, but he did not do anything to stop it. After all, before he drew his sword, he did not say that people could not compete for rankings by fighting with swords.

Li Yingqiong did not expect that her actions would cause such a big commotion, but she did not think much about it. Her only thought at the moment was to defeat "Taodu" and vent her anger.

Cheng Xinzhan, who was sitting on the chair, straightened up. He was also confused. Who was this?

Am I like a soft persimmon?
He controlled his flying sword and immediately rushed forward.

Seeing that "Tao Du" did not dodge the counterattack, Li Yingqiong became more determined to fight, and "Taibai Zhirui" turned into a white light that was almost impossible to look directly at.

"Tao Du" naturally refused to be outdone, and the golden sun fire ignited on the sword, rushing straight forward.

The two swords approached each other and changed accordingly. "Taibai Zhirui" suddenly dispersed into a ball of gas. This is the special feature of Taibai Gengjin. It has two states, gold and gas, and can change at will, making it hard to defend against.

"Tao Du" missed, and "Tai Bai Zhi Rui" took shape behind "Tao Du", turned over and cut "Tao Du" again.

After suffering losses continuously, Taodu's ferocity was aroused. The golden flame expanded and spread with a "boom", turning the area within a hundred feet centered on the sword into a sea of ​​fire, naturally including Taibai Zhirui.

On the ground, Cheng Xinzhan's sword moves changed, and "Taodu" suddenly turned into a ball of fire and melted into the sea of ​​fire.

"Ding!"

"Taibai Zhirui" was knocked over fiercely, sparks flying everywhere.

"Taibai Zhirui" wanted to escape, but she could not see the true body of "Taodu" in the sea of ​​fire. Under the Sun Bing Fire, and fire overcomes metal, "Taibai Zhirui" could not play its role.

However, "Taodu" would not let it get away easily and followed closely behind.

At this moment, "Taibai Zhirui" flew higher again. Li Yingqiong didn't believe that Dongfang Wandao, who practiced the inner alchemy, could compare with himself who practiced the Yuanshen Dao in terms of telekinesis. When the time came, he would be at high altitude and could be controlled by him.

After suffering a loss last time, she felt that she had made a lot of progress.

A beam of white light and a beam of fire were chasing each other in the sky. The other flying swords were unable to avoid them, nor would they cause trouble. The two flying swords quickly returned to the front and appeared in the Moon-Reflecting Mirror.

At this time, the height reached two thousand feet. Several other flying swords flew over to protect "Taibai Zhirui" in the middle, and the blazing "Taodu" also attracted another flying sword.

A flying sword with a deep blue body and a snow-white hilt was flying around "Tao Du". When "Tao Du" sensed it, the flames on his body subsided.

Cheng Xinzhan's eyes fixed.

"Moon Soul"?
He looked at the other flying swords that protected the sneak attack flying sword. The aura seemed to be related to "Taodu" and "Yueping", and it seemed to be a set of flying swords.

He suddenly understood, and he also knew the identity of the owner of the white sword.

On the other side, everyone turned their eyes to Zhou Qingyun. Why didn't "Yuepao" protect "Taibai Zhirui" but instead got closer to "Taodu"?

Zhou Qingyun was a little incoherent, "No, it wasn't me, it was Yuepo who went there on his own."

She quickly changed her sword moves and controlled the Moon Soul to return. "Maybe Senior Sister Zhou is protecting me!"

Li Yingqiong said coldly, and while "Taodu" was retracting the flames and responding to "Yuepao", he suddenly rushed over with his sword and stabbed "Taodu".

"Taodu" was hit three times, and "Taibai Zhirui" was not an ordinary flying sword. This time, the spiritual light of "Taodu" was dimmed a lot, and a thin crack appeared on the sword.

The sword master's thoughts attached to the sword were also damaged.

"Buzz!"

With a sharp and high-pitched sword sound, "Tao Du" was completely enraged, and Cheng Xinzhan was also furious!
The sword techniques in his hands kept changing, leaving afterimages. The sword techniques he used were exactly the secret methods recorded in the immortal scripture "The Jiji Sword Sutra of Li Tieguai" given by Master Canxia.

"Taodu" turned into flames and disappeared instantly.

After rising about a thousand feet, Li Yingqiong wanted to fight with swords again. She took the opportunity to hit "Tao Du" and wanted to make a concerted effort to attack again, but she suddenly lost the trace of "Tao Du".

Her thoughts were focused on the flying sword and she didn't find where "Taodu" was. She looked at the Moon-Reflecting Mirror but didn't see it either.

"clang!"

Li Yingqiong felt her thoughts attached to the flying sword tremble, and knew that the flying sword was hit. However, no matter how she turned the flying sword or how she used her thoughts to explore, she could not find any trace of "Taodu".

Once, twice, three times.

Everyone saw in the Moon-Reflecting Mirror that the "Taibai Zhirui" was being chopped and hacked in the air, making clanging sounds and sparks flying, but they could not see what was attacking.

"Did you see it?!"

Li Yingqiong shouted.

The other three tried their best to search with their minds, but found nothing. There was a faint flickering light in the sky, but it was not clear where it was lit, and they could not see where "Taodu" was.

It is the "Lihuo Sword Sutra".

Zhou Qingyun knew, but she didn't say it.

Everyone looked at Taibai Zhirui, who was like a fish caught in an undercurrent and unable to move. They couldn't help but become anxious.

At this time, Zhuge Jingrui changed his sword techniques, and the flying sword "Chi Su" suddenly emitted a dazzling red light. The sword body turned and turned into a huge red-headed centipede.

The red-headed centipede screamed, and hundreds of eyes suddenly appeared on its head!

The hazy red light illuminated all around. Taodu, who was flying back and forth like a shuttle and stabbing with Taibai Zhirui, was illuminated by the red light and his movements suddenly slowed down, as if he was stuck in a quagmire. His tracks were also discovered by these people.

Li Yingqiong was hit repeatedly by "Taibai Zhirui", and the thoughts attached to the sword were constantly frustrated, which was reflected in her physical body. Her pretty face had already turned pale.

Yu Yingnan had been watching with concern, and when he saw the culprit finally revealed himself, he immediately changed his sword moves and used "Qingkou" to attack.

"Qingkou" turned into a snake shadow. Yu Yingnan was eager to save his friend, so he pushed it with all his strength. "Taodu" was restrained by "Chisu" and could not avoid it in a split second. The snake shadow bit "Taodu" directly.

"Ding!"

With a cracking sound, the tip of the "Taodu" sword broke!
"Taodu" was refined by Cheng Xinzhan's spirit. His sword body was damaged at the moment, and he was not feeling well either. He had a bamboo body, and the damage to his thoughts did not feed back to his physical body. He did not vomit blood, and his complexion remained the same, but the headache and dizziness could not be faked.

He was already extremely angry, but at this moment his face showed no expression.
"Since you all want to come and play, let's give it a try!"

"Oh-oh-oh--"

The sound of roosters crowing was heard in the third heaven, and everyone was surprised. How come, Peacock City still raises chickens?
Then they realized that the screams were coming from higher up.

"Taodu" turned into a rooster with white feathers and a red crown.

The cock crowed three times, and the centipede and snake shadows began to tremble.

Zhuge Jingrui and Yu Yingnan found it gradually difficult to maintain the spirit and form of the flying sword.

When the cock crows three times, light appears in the east.

Everyone then realized that after going through the physical sword climbing stairs and the magic sword contest, this wonderful night was already over!

Its daybreak!
The golden light of the sun in the east shines on "Taodu", as if soothing the scars on the sword.

"Oh-oh-oh--"

The cock crowed three more times, and from the mouth of the rooster spirit came out the blazing sun fire. The golden flame turned into clouds, shining with the golden sunlight.

Under such power, "Chi Su" and "Qing Kou" could no longer maintain their insect form, and wailed as they transformed back into sword form.

"Taodu" also took the initiative to change back into the form of a sword, with fire burning on the sword body, and it was impossible to look directly at it under the bright sunlight.

Cheng Xinzhan once again performed the "Swift Sword Sutra". Under the illumination of the morning glow, Taodu's speed became even faster. In just a blink of an eye, Taodu flew to the side of "Chisu". Without the tip of the sword, Taodu crashed into him fiercely.

Cheng Xinzhan did not hold back in this attack, and "Taodu" also released his anger to the fullest.

"Ding!"

One side of the "Chi Su" sword was suddenly covered with cracks.

Zhuge Jingrui spat out a mouthful of blood, and "Chi Su" fell from the air.

"Taodu" did not stop or chase, but turned around to chase "Qingkou".

"Qingkou" fled in a hurry, but how could it be faster than "Taodu"? "Taodu" rose to the top of "Qingkou" and, under Cheng Xinzhan's full efforts, chopped down at "Qingkou"'s sword from top to bottom.

"clang!"

The mussel broke into two pieces and fell.

Yu Yingnan also spat out a mouthful of blood.

At this moment, “Tao Du” turned to “Tai Bai Zhi Rui” again.

After witnessing the fall of "Chi Su" and "Qing Kou", "Xuan Sha", who had not moved, finally moved and protected "Tai Bai Zhi Rui".

On the ground, Li Yuanhua looked at Zhou Qingyun. He had no intention of finding out whether Zhou Qingyun knew Cheng Xinzhan from Sanqing Mountain, but now that the Four Emei Masters were facing that young man, Zhou Qingyun had to express his position.

He would never allow Zhou Qingyun to have any hesitation at this moment, and he would never allow any Emei disciple to have any second thoughts.

Zhou Qingyun noticed Li Yuanhua's gaze and felt bitter.

Since the first day she met Cheng Xinzhan, she knew that one day she would stand on the opposite side of him because of the hatred for the sword, but she never thought that day would come so soon and so suddenly.

From the moment Li Yingqiong drew his sword, she had been thinking about it. Now, she had figured it out. She loved him. When they first met in the misty Huangshan Mountain and heard him reciting poems and describing the scenery, she had already developed admiration for him. After spending a few days together, she appreciated his conversation and behavior even more.

Later, she and her master, Zhenren Canxia, ​​saw the Qilin ascend to heaven, saw the mountain where the Qilin was looking at the moon gradually regain its vitality, and saw the lake where the Qilin lowered his head gradually become full.

She knew that he could do it. A meticulous person like him would definitely be able to do it.

She had looked forward to meeting him again.

She saw that Cheng Xinzhan was extremely happy on the sword field, and he even forgot to hide it in front of Ying Qiong.

She saw Cheng Xinzhan happy for him on the sword field, but she also felt a little uneasy.

She was very scared until she saw "Taodu" among the flying swords all over the city.

Then, unexpectedly, Yingqiong took action.

But she has figured it out now. She is just a passer-by to him, and he is a man who suddenly breaks into her heart. The throbbing is only temporary. Perhaps over time, her heart will gradually harden and the throbbing will naturally disappear.

But Huangshan is my home, Emei is my master's school, the kindness is as deep as the sea, and the slight excitement in my heart is really insignificant compared to it.

She had an idea.

"Yuepo" protected "Taibai Zhirui" and was on par with "Xuansha".

Either don’t do it, or if you do it, do it to the best of your ability.

The tip of the "Yuepao" sword pointed at the oncoming "Taodu" and rushed forward.

Zhou Qingyun's sword gestures changed, exactly,
"Li Tieguai's Talk about the Kanshui Mianrou Sword Sutra".
