Chapter 382 High Dimension
Chapter 382 High Dimension
Xu Qing slowly woke up.
The surrounding area is no longer dry and rainy, but filled with cool mountain breezes.
"Master, you finally woke up." Yue Nu's voice was heard, filled with joy.
"Where is Meng Chixing now?" Xu Qing was actually a little disappointed when he woke up.
The spiritual confrontation with Meng Chixing that day, the collision of the two spirits brought about a thunder that shook the world, as if a door had been opened invisibly.
In an instant, Xu Qing's body was finally exhausted of energy and blood, and he fainted.
In fact, he is not obsessed with life and death in this world.
If I die, maybe I can return to my original world.
This was also the reason why he felt a little disappointed when he woke up.
"Meng Chixing returned to the Potala Palace."
"Did the Mongolian army retreat at that time?"
"good."
"Where is this?"
"The mountain villa of the Yuan family in Guanzhong."
"Master Kumei." Yue Nu bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and continued: "Master Kumei said that the master's blood and qi are seriously depleted, and he needs natural treasures to prolong his life. The Yuan family in Guanzhong is a big family with great wealth and can afford these medicinal materials. But..."
"how?"
"Master Kumei seems to be intending to send the master to the Yuan family."
"Well, how is the matter of Jingjue Ancient City going?"
"After the Mongolian army retreated, the surviving people went to participate in the auction of the 24 solar terms, and many of them got what they wanted. In addition, Master Ku Mei got the Dugu Nine Swords, and the Heavenly Sin Sword was bought by a mysterious person."
"Mystery man?"
"I only got this much information in such a hurry. It will take some time to get more details."
"Well, where is Han Tang?"
"After he followed us to the villa..." Yue Nu paused and continued, "He disappeared."
Xu Qing seemed to be thinking about something, and then said, "It's hard for you to be so loyal."
"I am willing to follow my master for the rest of my life, and I will go through fire and water for him." Yue Nu suddenly knelt down.
Xu Qing smiled: "What's the point of following me?"
"I think my master is a god. Following him, I have the chance to stay young and immortal." Yue Nu expressed her thoughts.
Xu Qing smiled and said, "You are quite good. You didn't betray me when I was unconscious. Now you are my real confidant. The name Yue Nu is not good. I plan to give you a new name to use when you are out in the world."
"Thank you, Master, for the name you gave me."
"Well, from now on, when you go out into the world, you will be called Su Lianqing."
"only."
After Xu Qing said this, his expression changed.
After this coma, he seemed to have found himself again.
Su Lianqing was his most loyal subordinate in the other world. Now that he gave Yue Nu this name, it meant that Xu Qing planned to start a new career in this world.
...
...
Tianxing Villa, living room.
This is the name of Yuan's Villa, which is taken from the Book of Changes: "Heaven moves with vigor, and the gentleman strives to improve himself unceasingly."
"Master Xu, you finally woke up." The owner of the villa, Yuan Wangsun, was a refined and easy-going middle-aged man. In fact, he was not young, but he had a method to maintain his youthful appearance, so he looked much younger than he actually was.
"Thank you, Master Yuan, for saving me."
"Master Xu, you are too polite. I have been friends with the Quanzhen Sect for many years, and we were originally going to become in-laws."
Xu Qing cupped his hands and said, "It's all my fault that I didn't take Miss Sun away..."
When he said this, he couldn't help but sigh.
Yuan Wangsun waved his hand and said, "Everyone has their own destiny. This incident shows that Miss Sun and I are not destined to be together. I can't blame anyone. By the way, since the Taoist priest is staying here for a while, if you have nothing else to do, you can go to the library in the manor and read at will."
Xu Qing was about to express his thanks.
Yuan Wangsun said: "Master Sun has already written to me about this matter, and you defeated the Mongol army in front of the Mongol army, which greatly increased the prestige of our Han people. Now, who in the world does not praise you?"
It turned out that the battle between Xu Qing and Meng Chixing had caused a sensation in the martial arts world and alarmed the government, with even the Mongol Emperor Kublai Khan personally interrogating it.
When they learned that Xu Qing was from the Quanzhen Sect, the shaky momentum of the Quanzhen Sect was suddenly revived.
Although it is not as powerful as the world's largest religion in the past, its influence has recovered after all.
Moreover, after Kublai Khan heard about this, he was just very impressed that Changchun Zhenren had a successor, and he did not intend to blame Xu Qing.
After all, the Mongols admired bravery the most.
...
...
"I will be reading in Yuan's library for the next period of time. Please go and find out about the Ming Cult for me."
"Mingjiao?"
"Well, I plan to subjugate the Ming Cult."
Yue Nu was extremely shocked.
Although she knew that her master was a man from heaven, it would be like a snake swallowing an elephant to subdue the Ming Cult with their current limited manpower. However, she had a very high emotional intelligence and knew that as long as she unconditionally carried out the requests made by her master, her life would definitely be easy in the future.
Yue Nu followed Xu Qing's orders and quietly went down the mountain to inquire about the Ming Cult.
Xu Qing stayed in Tianxing Villa to look at the villa's collection of books.
During this period, he did not see the son of the Yuan family.
It is said that the young master of the Yuan family has been missing for some time.
Xu Qing had seen Master Ku Mei before, and there was no sign of the young master of the Yuan family, but Yue Nu said that he saw the two of them behaving very intimately.
But Xu Qing felt something was wrong.
He had a hunch that the young master of the Yuan family was definitely not the one Yue Nu had seen.
Putting aside these distracting thoughts, Xu Qing read quietly in the library.
The most valuable books in Yuan’s collection are not martial arts, but the annotations on the Book of Changes by many famous scholars.
The Book of Changes is also known as the King of Classics.
Since ancient times, countless great scholars have devoted their entire lives to studying the classics and annotating them.
Xu Qing had also read many annotations on the Book of Changes during the Great Yu Dynasty, but the annotations in the Yuan family's collection of books in this world could still give Xu Qing a lot of inspiration.
Maybe it’s because the world is different and the rules are different.
Xu Qing’s current gains have given him a sense of sudden enlightenment that has directly reached the essence of everything.
What's more, he had already obtained the innate Taiyi Dao Seed in another world. Now in this low-level martial arts world, he actually had a feeling of absorbing and digesting the innate Taiyi Dao Seed.
Although he could not use this innate Taiyi Dao seed at all now.
"What's so weird about this world? It's easier to attain enlightenment than in the previous world." Xu Qing now has many doubts and confusions.
The more he studied, the more he realized an indescribable mystery.
"In a sense, the dimension of this world is actually higher than that of the Dayu Dynasty." Xu Qing finally came to a shocking conclusion.
Although the performance of this world seems to be of low level, its dimension is actually higher than the Taixu Universe where the Dayu Dynasty is located.
"No wonder." An indescribable enlightenment arose in Xu Qing's heart.
"The Taixu Universe came from the Taixu Mirror, so where did this world come from?" The more Xu Qing understood, the more doubts he had in his mind.
He recalled the mental confrontation between himself and Meng Chixing, which triggered the thunder. In a trance, it seemed as if a faint door had opened, and a strange bell sounded. Could it be that behind that door, the truth of this world was hidden?
Xu Qing had read Huang Yi's novels and knew that the appearance of martial arts characters such as Meng Chixing and Ba Siba represented the ultimate proposition of Huang Yi's martial arts world - "breaking the void", and that portal should be the so-called "Immortal Gate".
But Xu Qing believes that it is not that simple.
This world is about rivers and lakes, martial arts, but it also has unspeakable wonderful things.
Some people and some things even appear suddenly.
Before they appear, others don't even have any impression of them, but they take their appearance for granted.
When you think about it carefully, it's actually quite terrifying.
But except Xu Qing himself, no one else would notice or even care about this.
It's like in Zhuangzi's fable, in a country of madmen, only the king is sane.
The more this is the case, the more he needs to understand the world deeply and master every aspect.
A strong organization is a must.
Compared to the so-called world's largest gang, the Beggars' Sect, the Ming Cult actually meets Xu Qing's standards better. It is well-organized and has centripetal force, which is incompatible with the Central Plains martial arts world...
...
...
Huashan, Sun and Moon Cliff.
"Master Kumei, the Taoist priest ordered me to take over the position of the head of Huashan."
Master Ku Mei looked at the girl in front of him in disbelief.
The girl's surname is Hua and her given name is Zhenzhen.
He is the descendant of Master Ku Mei.
Hua Zhenzhen did not originally belong to the Huashan Sect. Because she became an orphan at a young age, Master Ku Mei sent people to take her back to the Queen Mother Palace, which is now the Xuanyu Temple.
Master Ku Mei deliberately did not teach Hua Zhenzhen martial arts because he wanted to train Gao Yanan to be the successor to the head of the sect.
But Gao Yanan gets along well with Hua Zhenzhen.
It's just a martial arts sect, and teaching martial arts privately is a taboo.
Gao Yanan did not dare to teach Hua Zhenzhen martial arts privately.
Master Ku Mei never expected that Hua Zhenzhen, who grew up under her nose, would come to her and ask her to give up her position as the head of Huashan after she obtained the Dugu Nine Swords and made some progress.
Master Kumei: "You are qualified to be the headmaster, but the position of headmaster should be filled by the most capable. Hua Zhenzhen, do you really have this ability?"
Hua Zhenzhen said "hmm".
Master Kumei sighed: "I don't care who the Taoist priest you are talking about is. Anyway, you lost to me today, so don't mention this matter again."
As she spoke, she drew out the Jade Maiden Sword that she carried with her.
Hua Zhenzhen drew out the iron sword she carried with her.
This is the standard sword used by Huashan disciples, there is nothing surprising about it.
But Master Kumei was shocked when Hua Zhenzhen drew his sword.
Because a hint of purple appeared on Hua Zhenzhen's brow.
Master Ku Mei knew what this meant, and she almost blurted out: "Purple Qi Yuan Zong."
"Well, Master, be careful, I have already practiced the Purple Qi Yuan Zong to the ninth level."
The Huashan School's "Purple Qi Yuan Zong" is a breath of innate purple qi, which is one of the most difficult internal skills in the martial arts world. People with great talent and pure heart can make rapid progress in this internal skill, and often have the skills of fifty or sixty years old in their twenties or thirties, which is incredible.
However, once one is not suitable for this internal skill, I am afraid that fifty or sixty years will not have the effect of twenty or thirty years of ordinary internal skills.
Throughout the Huashan Sect's history, only a few have been able to master this martial art.
There are twelve levels of this skill. The one who has ever mastered it is Hua Zhenzhen's ancestor Hua Qiongfeng, who practiced it to the eleventh level. But by then, Hua Qiongfeng was already in his twilight years.
It is extremely rare for someone like Hua Zhenzhen to be able to practice this martial art to the ninth level before the age of twenty. When Hua Qiongfeng practiced to the ninth level of Ziqi Yuanzong at the age of twenty-eight, she was already a rare genius in the martial arts world. She became the undisputed successor to the sect leader and took over as the sect leader two years later.
...
...
"Master Xu, help!"
Xu Qing was in the stone chamber where books were stored at Tianxing Villa when he heard cries for help from outside.
The person who spoke was Gao Yanan.
"What's wrong?" Xu Qing walked out of the library and his eyes fell on Master Ku Mei.
He could see that Master Ku Mei had suffered serious internal injuries.
Gao Yanan: "Master Xu, please save my master."
Xu Qing nodded and pointed at Master Kumei through the air.
Acupuncture from a distance!
Master Ku Mei was shocked.
Because she clearly felt that the internal energy from Xu Qing's acupoint pressing seemed to come from the same source as the Purple Qi Yuanzong that she was hit by.
"This is the Xiantian Finger of Chongyang Palace. By the way, Master, who hurt you? This person is not simple. He can cultivate the innate purple energy just like my Xiantian Finger." Xu Qing asked curiously.
Master Ku Mei spat out a mouthful of blood and felt much better instantly.
She then told the reason for her injury.
"Hua Zhenzhen, Ziqi Yuanzong, there is also a so-called Taoist priest?" Xu Qing heard the whole story, pondered for a while, and then said: "The master has obtained the Dugu Nine Swords and the Qingfeng Thirteen Styles, but he is still not her opponent?"
Master Kumei smiled bitterly: "Hua Zhenzhen also knows the Thirteen Qingfeng Styles, and she actually knows the Nine Swords of Dugu. She said that it was passed down to her by that Taoist priest."
"Master, isn't you doing a good job as the head of the sect? Why does she have to come and take the position of the head of the sect?"
Xu Qing knew very well that the other party was not a ruthless person, otherwise, Master Ku Mei would have no chance of surviving.
It was incredible that a girl under 20 years old could surpass the martial arts of Iron Fairy and Master Kumei. Moreover, Xu Qing had a lot of experience with Xiantian Purple Qi, so he knew that it would be impossible for a person with a pure mind to master this Taoist skill.
Master Ku Mei: "This is also what I don't understand. Maybe she just wants to obey the Taoist priest's orders. But I never knew that this Taoist priest existed."
Speaking of the Taoist priest, Master Ku Mei subconsciously glanced at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing: "Master, you won't doubt me, will you?"
Master Kumei: "I'm just curious about where Taoist Master Xu's martial arts skills came from."
Xu Qing: “It’s natural.”
Master Ku Mei's mouth twitched.
Xu Qing smiled and continued, "Master, do you still want to regain the position of the head of Huashan?"
Master Kumei: "Hua Zhenzhen has good character, but she cannot be the head of the sect. I must take this position back."
"It's not easy to defeat her, but I have a way."
"really?"
"The answer lies in the Dugu Nine Swords that the master has obtained."
"Qi-breaking style?" Master Ku Mei blurted out.
Xu Qing nodded slowly.
Master Kumei laughed bitterly: "This Qi-breaking Style is too difficult to comprehend."
At the same time, she began to wonder how Xu Qing knew the contents of the Dugu Nine Swords.
Xu Qing: "I read the I Ching annotations at Yuan's and gained a little. The Dugu Nine Swords is actually not beyond the I Ching. If you want to comprehend the Qi-breaking Style, you naturally have to start with the I Ching."
The Qi-breaking Style is the true essence of the Dugu Nine Swords.
Xu Qing suddenly had an idea to use Master Ku Mei's Dugu Nine Swords Breaking Qi Style to verify his own understanding of the Book of Changes.
This matter seemed to be very important to him.
