Chapter 101: Countercurrent
Chapter 101: Countercurrent (First update, please give me a monthly ticket! Go! Go!)
"Yueping" drew his sword.
Cheng Xinzhan's mood did not change much.
Just hearing the mournful cry from "Tao Du", he felt a little uncomfortable. The sword was not wrong, and there was no dispute between the swords. It was just that people had their own positions.
"Yueping" emitted an icy chill, and the tail of the flying sword was a string of tiny ice crystals, slowly coming over.
"Taodu" carries the blazing fire of Bing, and behind the sword is the brilliant morning glow. The flying sword is hard to catch in the morning glow, it is so swift and agile.
Suddenly, there was a sound of water in the sky, like waves surging in the sea.
But vaguely, Cheng Xinzhan seemed to really see a wave.
"Taodu" flashed, jumped, and stabbed forward, but the wave suddenly appeared on the way forward for "Taodu", and the momentum of its advancement slowed down a little.
It was just in such a brief gap that "Yue Po" came up immediately.
The azure blue sword body was pressed against "Tao Du", and the tip of "Yuepu" sword seemed to be rotating slowly but actually quickly, with a soft force of its own, which caused sparks to fly on the "Tao Du" sword body. At the same time, "Yuepu" was sweeping backwards, but its speed dropped very quickly.
In just a few breaths, "Taodu" was forced to stop.
Cheng Xinzhan was very surprised.
He controlled "Taodu" to escape and regain his strength.
But this time the result was the same, and "Taodu" was almost taken away.
She knew the trend of "Taodu" very clearly. No, or rather, she knew the key points of sword-wielding in "Li Tieguai Li's Fire-Lifting Jiji Sword Sutra" very clearly.
Is this a sword technique specifically designed for "Li Tieguai Li's Fire-Lifting Jiji Sword Sutra"?
Cheng Xinzhan thought a lot at once. Zhou Qingyun must have a close relationship with Emei, and such a set of flying swords would definitely not be easily passed on to others. But her master is Master Canxia from Huangshan. So, does Emei want to conquer Huangshan?
Furthermore, will Emei's influence spread from the southwest to the east? In recent years, the dispute between the Eastern and Western Taoist sects has intensified. Is Emei taking a different approach and trying to win over the independent practitioners in Qingzhou first?
Master Canxia is the initiator of Huangshan governance and holds a very high position in the hearts of Huangshan and Qingzhou cultivators. If Master Canxia supports Emei, it will not be good news for the Eastern Taoist sect.
But was it that Master Canxia gave the scriptures just so that her disciple could show her courtesy to Emei at some point - like now?
Isn’t this a bit too big?
Although this sutra has a method of restraint, it still cannot be denied that it is an immortal sutra!
He thought a lot at once.
However, at this moment, while Cheng Xinzhan was distracted, "Taibai Zhirui" who was hiding behind "Xuansha" suddenly came to life and jumped out again. When "Taodu" was entangled by "Yueping", "Taibai Zhirui" suddenly approached and added a sword.
Li Yingqiong is very smart. When they were at Rotten Peach Mountain, Cheng Xinzhan used his body sword to break the flying sword. The method he used was to strike the body sword horizontally at a certain point in the center of the flying sword every time. Cheng Xinzhan has always been good at learning from others' strengths in battle.
This time, his strengths were also learned by others.
From dusk to dawn, "Taibai Zhirui" tapped the center of "Taodu"'s sword four times, each time on the same side and at the same point.
From the beginning, her goals were clear.
She wants to destroy Taodu.
She did it.
When they intersected for the fourth time, "Taodu" broke into two sections and fell from the air. The thoughts that Cheng Xinzhan had attached to the sword were shattered by the energy of Taibai Gengjin.
"Senior Sister Zhou, it turns out you really were covering for me. Yingqiong misunderstood you."
Under the eaves, Li Yingqiong said to Zhou Qingyun with a smile.
Zhou Qingyun did not say anything, but only heard the mournful cry of "Yueping" in the sky.
Man is not as good as sword, so she did not dare to cry.
In front of Haishi Restaurant, Cheng Xinzhan was slightly stunned. "Taodu" is broken?
Taodu is actually broken?
He saw two broken swords falling, the spiritual light on the swords dimmed, and the sword spirits turned into the shadow of a rooster, pulling the two broken swords to prevent them from separating. The rooster was still crowing, as if crying blood. "Taodu" still wanted to fly high, wanted to fly up and continue fighting, but he could not stop the downward trend.
Is this Taodu’s fault?
No, blame yourself.
Why did he let Li Yingqiong cut off "Taodu" in a way that he was familiar with?
Is it just because someone helped to contain it?
not necessarily.
The real reason was that he looked down on Li Yingqiong, thinking that she was an incompetent person, and that he was more vigilant towards her companions than she was.
In fact, she always had good timing when drawing her sword.
Cheng Xinzhan suddenly stood up.
Everyone around was watching nervously. They could recognize that the scarlet flying sword belonged to Taoist Cheng.
Cheng Xinzhan looked up at the falling "Taodu".
Since they are outnumbered, we certainly cannot let "Taodu" fight alone.
"Taodu" was originally one sword, but now it has two.
There was spiritual light surging on his body, and two human-shaped spiritual lights could be vaguely seen swaying.
"Xinzhan, don't be impulsive!"
Shouts from Feng Jihu and others were heard from upstairs.
But at this moment, the humanoid aura had completely left the body and flew high into the sky.
They jumped down from the building, and the six of them completely surrounded Cheng Xinzhan's motionless body. Sun Miaoshu looked nervous and shouted,
"Everyone stay five feet away!"
Fighting is forbidden in Peacock City, but they have already brought out all their weapons and magic treasures.
There are inexplicably people in the sky attacking the flying sword. Wouldn't there be people on the ground who would take advantage of the opportunity to attack?
They were powerless to stop the sword fight in the sky, but they would never allow anyone on earth to harm Xinzhan's body.
If there is anything wrong with the physical body, the soul will have no place to rest, and this will be the end of the body and the soul!
Six people took out jade bells at the same time and began to shake them violently.
"Ding-ling-ling—Ding-ling-ling—"
The clear sound of jade striking rang out, like the sound of rings and pendants, but such a clear sound was shaken to sound rapid and harsh. The ringing sound was not loud, but it spread far away.
In just a few breaths, a figure appeared in front of them.
After seeing this, several people breathed a sigh of relief.
"Meet Master Wu Shan."
The man had a middle-aged appearance, around 40 years old, but he was actually the deputy master of Danxia Mountain, the blessed land of lotus, and a high-level cultivator who had attained the third realm and six baptisms.
Master Wu Shan nodded, looking at the motionless body protected by several people behind him and the two souls flying away in the sky, he naturally understood at a glance why these young men were ringing the bell.
After only one or two breaths, everyone saw another person coming in a flash.
When Master Wu Shan saw this, he said, "So you are here too."
The younger ones were a little unfamiliar with this man and called him "Master".
"This is Elder Jiao from Toujian Mountain."
Master Wu Shan said, "He has been away for many years, so it's normal that you don't recognize him."
Elder Jiao looked younger than Master Wu. He said,
"I stayed in the East China Sea for a while, and happened to follow Huanzhu Tower here, and even became a guest official of Huanzhu Tower."
Elder Jiao said with a smile.
The six people saw that the two elders looked relaxed and knew that nothing should go wrong, so they felt a little relieved.
After just these two sentences, more people landed on the ground.
"The Wanfa Sect's Siming Mountain Xinming Temple, has the ancestral temple summoned you?"
An old man looked at the six young men holding bells.
"The Wanfa Sect's Dalongshan Guanshuiguan."
"Qinghua Temple of Wutong Mountain, Wanfa Sect."
"The Wanfa Sect's Jiugong Mountain Tianjing Temple."
"The Wanfa School..."
People kept landing at the entrance of Haishi Restaurant, and the onlookers kept retreating, leaving more than five meters of empty space.
Everyone was shocked. Is this the power of a big sect?
On behalf of Mount Sanqing, Master Wu thanked all the visitors one by one.
Elder Jiao asked those young people,
"Whose child is this? He has earned the title of the leader for our Sanqing Mountain today."
Sun Miaoshu stepped forward and said, "Elder, you are the disciple of Master Wen Shan of Meiji Mountain."
Elder Jiao nodded, "I guess so. Only Meijishan can leave his body and travel far away at the first level. However, I see that his thunder method is also very exquisite. Why is that?"
Sun Miaoshu replied, "My mind and body are ill, and it can only be cured by thunder magic, so I have been studying the Dharma at Shuji Mountain for the past year."
"That's right. Then I will discuss with Master Wen when I go back and come to Toujian Mountain to listen for a year. With such a good talent, he is practicing sword alone."
Elder Jiao sighed, "Fortunately, Master Li only allowed swordfighting to those below the second level, and their talents can still cover their swordsmanship, otherwise it would be a joke."
Sun Miaoshu smiled. Was this sword technique still a joke? He didn't understand.
At this moment, Elder Jiao suddenly raised his hand, and a ray of light flowed out from his fingertips and flew into the sky. It soon caught up with the two souls. He said to himself,
"But now you dare to control the sword with your soul, you are a sword master. I will teach you a method and let you learn and use it immediately to see how much you can understand."
Xiao Shiyi Niang had already stood up and said hurriedly to Qingyu in a low voice,
"Hurry up and show the seats to the Taoist priests!"
After saying that, she started to move seats out of the restaurant, suppressed the worries in her heart, and forced a smile.
----
High in the sky, the sunlight shone on the two souls. It was said in the Secret Instructions for the Manifestation of the Gods of Changsheng Taiyuan that when the soul travels, it must first travel at night and then during the day to avoid being burned by the yang fire. However, since the beginning of his practice, he had been visualizing the Pleiades and absorbing the yang fire, so his soul was close to the sun. In addition, his two souls often lived outside his body and had long been extraordinarily tough. At this moment, he felt very comfortable.
At this time, a ray of light merged into the soul. Cheng Xinzhan checked and found that it was a sword scripture called,
"Hunyuan Feiqi Sword Sutra".
He looked back and found that there were many people surrounding his body, all looking at him.
He thought that it might be someone from his master's sect, and the sword manual that was suddenly sent to him must be a gift from his master.
He quickly scanned it, and soon, the two souls going up met the falling "Taodu".
The sword spirit saw its master's two souls and began to cry excitedly again.
At this time, the two souls separated. The You spirit turned into the appearance of Yuandan Taoist and, together with the sword spirit, sank into the broken sword blade. The Shuang spirit turned into the appearance of Mao Ri Xingjun and sank into another broken sword, with the hilt attached to half of the sword body.
Immediately, dazzling flames came out of the two broken swords at the same time, the falling momentum stopped, and they paused for a moment, and then accompanied by the clanging of swords, the two broken swords flew high again!
The two broken swords rose in a spiral at an extremely fast speed, dragging two entangled trails of fire. If this had happened at night, it would have been the most dazzling sight.
At this moment in the morning glow, the huge trail of fire looked like a giant bird born from the morning glow, and the two red broken swords were the eyes of this giant bird.
At this time, there were not many flying swords competing for height in the sky. Looking carefully, there were exactly thirty-six swords, which had reached a height of three thousand feet. The rest were either knocked down or fell on their own.
At this moment, the owners of the flying swords that were still flying high all looked at the Moon-Reflecting Mirror, looking at their own rankings, while the owners of the fallen flying swords followed the falling swords downwards. Gradually, they saw the giant flaming bird. They were surprised. It had been so long, and these two flying swords were just now being unleashed?
But when they looked more closely, they found that these were not two flying swords, but two broken parts of one flying sword!
They soon remembered that this was the sword that had been attacked in the first place, the sword that had been besieged.
The two broken swords flew higher and higher, faster and faster, going upstream in the sky full of falling swords.
