"The name is already so long, and it's still not over?" Ying Feiyang said in surprise.
"Yes, so he began to shorten the name." Taoist Qing Ku nodded. "The first was' Flying Shadow '. If he moved fast with his sword, he wouldn't even leave a shadow.' Flying Shadow 'could no longer match the speed of his sword. So he removed it, and his swordsmanship became 'Flawless Meridian Break Sword'. "
"Two years later, 'Meridian Break' also lost its meaning. Wherever the sword goes, there's nothing it can't break. How could it be limited to 'Meridian Break'? He also removed the two words. "
"Another year, 'Well-Tempered Steel' became 'Finger-Twisting Softness'. In his hands, 'Finger-Twisting Softness' could also become well-tempered steel. From hardness to softness, from softness to hardness. In the end, 'Finger-Twisting Softness' became too narrow."
"Three years later, Yu Wenfeng sailed on the vast sea. Thunder and rain mixed together. In the midst of the storm, he cut a huge tide with one sword. After that, 'Raging Tide' could no longer describe the power of his sword."
"In another two years, his swordsmanship broke away from the shackles of Heaven's Path. There was no longer any trace of it. The two words' Cloudy Sky ', which symbolized the changes in the sky, could no longer encompass his sword. Over and over again, the name of his swordsmanship returned to the original 'Flawless Sword'. But after this cycle, the swordsmanship with the same name could no longer be mentioned in the same breath! "
"The last stage took five years. Finally, after watching First Madame Gongsun's sword dance one day, Yu Wenfeng no longer clung to the two words' Flawless'. Instead, he reached the state of 'Heaven and Earth Leak'. From then on, the first twelve words of 'Flying Shadow Meridian Break Sword' were all gone. The swordsmanship was left with only one word, 'sword'. And his sword, from then on, was only a sword! That day, Yu Wenfeng entered the Dao with martial arts and leaped to the peak of the human world. "
After finishing in one breath, Priest Qing Ku said to Ying Feiyang, "Now, do you understand why I told you all this?"
Ying Feiyang thought in silence. A swordsman in the path of martial arts was innately inferior to cultivators in the path of heaven. With just a few third-rate and second-rate martial arts and sword techniques, and with an almost idiotic dedication to the path of the sword, he focused his mind and focused his thoughts on turning exaggerations into reality. Then, he turned reality into a legend that normal people could not hope to reach. This was the Sword God's path of the sword.
After that, he suddenly understood and said, "Thank you for your guidance, Master. I was too impatient for success. I felt that what I had learned was too diverse, so I wanted to integrate all the sword techniques I had learned. But now, I can't even be considered to have a thorough understanding of these sword techniques, so how can I integrate them?"
"You are worth teaching!" Priest Qing Ku stroked his beard and said proudly, "Even though your talent is so high that it is sixty to seventy percent of what I had back then, you can't be impatient for success in the path of the sword. Sometimes, because of your talent, it will affect the stability of your foundation. You must take this as a warning!"
"Yes, I will remember your teachings!" Ying Feiyang cupped his hands and bowed. From then on, he no longer had any doubts in his heart.
This year was destined to be an eventful one that was worthy of being written in ink and color.
At the beginning of the year, the general of the border, Zhang Shougui, defeated the Khitans and carved a tablet in Youzhou. His adopted son, An Lushan, rose to prominence. In the same year, Zhang Shougui won the battle in Luoyang and was conferred the title of General Who Helped the Nation.
At the height of spring, when the peonies were in full bloom, the Imperial Preceptor of the Tang Empire, Sima Chengzhen, passed away. The Shangqing school, which used to be in charge of the Taoist sects in the secular world, escaped from the whirlpool of power under the guidance of the new Hierarch, Li Hanguang. The focus of the Shangqing school was once again shifted back to the Maoshan Sect.
At the beginning of the summer solstice, the Taoist Temple of Mount Qingcheng and the Flying to the Temple argued in front of the Imperial Palace over the property of the temple. Later, because they refused to accept the verdict, the Buddhist and Taoist parties started a fight by the shore of the Luo River during the Middle Yuan Period, which incurred the wrath of the Emperor.
Not long after that, the twenty-fifth Taoist Master of Mount Longhu, Zhang Running, died. His son, Zhang Moli, succeeded the position of Taoist Master. Because he was not old enough, the Elders of the sect took over the position on his behalf. The Taoist Temple of Mount Qingcheng was also destroyed on the same day that Taoist Master Zhang Running died. The crack between Yin and Yang opened, and a group of ghosts flew to the sky.
。
The Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Master of the Six Paths, Di Lingtian, reappeared in the world. To the cultivators of the world, it was undoubtedly the most shocking thunder of the summer. But after the thunder, it returned to silence. Di Lingtian did not show up again, and the remaining Six Paths did not move either. Whether it was because of this that they went into hiding, or they were accumulating a stronger thunderstorm, the world did not know.
And Di Lingtian's old enemy, "One Elephant All Lives" Wei Wushuang, stepped out of the top of Kunlun's Wan Xiang Celestial Palace. He came to the Taoist Master Cave of Mount Qingcheng with the wind and snow of Kunlun. With his back facing the portrait of Taoist Master Dao Mausoleum, he sat at the place where Taoist Master Dao Mausoleum passed away. He did not get up again, and with his own strength, he blocked the Yin and Yang.
In the middle of the year, the daughter of the Tang Emperor, Princess Xianyi, married Yang Gui from the Yang Clan of Hongnong. Good things come in pairs. Princess Xianyi's younger brother, Prince Shou, Li Mao, fell in love at first sight with Yang Yuhuan, who was also from the Yang Clan of Hongnong, at his sister's wedding. In October of the same year, the Tang Emperor made Yang Yuhuan Princess Shou, and the beauty finally married into the Emperor's family …
…
The affairs of the world changed, and time flew by. This long year finally came to an end.
On New Year's Eve, to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, thousands of families celebrated this day, always exchanging new peaches for old talismans. Ling Xiao Sword School, which was far away from the mortal world, was also tainted with a trace of festive joy.
In the chilly wind, the faint peach wood fragrance of the Peach Talisman, the sweet smell of maltose, and the fragrance of Tu Su Wine mixed together to form a festive atmosphere.
And Ying Feiyang put on a new set of clothes, carrying two bottles of Tu Su Wine up the mountain from Qiyun Town, all the way to Danxia Peak to pay his Martial Aunt Shang Ying a New Year greeting.
It was chilly on the mountain, and the snow from a few days ago had not disappeared yet. Under the thin ice of the stream, the cold stream had already begun to jump cheerfully.
Following the stream upstream to the peak, a burst of crackling sounds could be heard. Ming Ye and Miao Miao were breaking off the green bamboo on the peak and using it as exploding poles. The hollow bamboo joints were stuffed with saltpeter and sulfur, which were ignited by Ming Ye's Fire Strength, emitting thick yellow smoke and loud exploding sounds. Miao Miao was jumping and clapping her hands, cheering like a child.
Ming Ye, whose tendons and veins were damaged, had lost his power again. The Nine Sun Burning Fire, which had amazed the world in the Sword Trial Competition, was now only a little bit exploding. But a smile appeared on his cold face, as he lit the fire and looked at the cheerful Miao Miao.
The thick smoke from the exploding poles did not drive away the snakes, insects, and diseases, but instead attracted the Eldest Senior Sister of Danxia Peak, Ji Mingxia. Ji Mingxia put on a dignified face and scolded Ming Ye and Miao Miao. Miao Miao was no longer afraid of her. She pulled Ming Ye's sleeve and made a face, laughing like a silver bell.
Ji Mingxia, on the other hand, looked at the two of them who were stuck together. In a trance, a faint smile appeared on her face as she gently stroked her hair. It turned out that since that day, another year had passed unknowingly.
After saying goodbye to Ji Mingxia, Ying Feiyang entered the house. Inside the house, Xie Lingyan, who had never done any chores, was pinching the balls (dumplings in the future) with great interest. But her skill was really not flattering. The balls were either crooked or exposed.
Seeing Ying Feiyang coming, Xie Lingyan sneered again, "Hey, other people don't come early or late to send gifts, but you come at mealtime. Do you want to get a meal from us?"
"Hey, I was so engrossed in practicing swordsmanship in the morning. When I came back to my senses, it was already late in the morning." Ying Feiyang said.
"You don't forget to practice swordsmanship during the Spring Festival." Xie Lingyan snorted, "Forget it, don't explain. You're acting like I can't afford to keep you for a meal. Come on, I'll show you my skill later." Xie Lingyan rubbed her nose with her hand covered with flour and said proudly.
Ying Feiyang looked at the crooked balls with contempt and said, "Maybe I did. Now, I'd better go back and heat up the leftovers from yesterday."
"Humph, forget it. My master is inside. Put it down and get out!" Xie Lingyan snorted.
At this time, Shang Ying happened to come out. Looking at the Tu Su wine in Ying Feiyang's hand, she scolded with a smile, "Like master, like disciple. Immortals are not like mortals, but it's rare to see a master only giving two jars of wine during the Spring Festival. Besides, no one on Danxia Mount likes it! "
Ying Feiyang said with a smile, "It's my master's idea. He said that if he gave you two jars of wine, you probably wouldn't want it. How can I take it and get it back? That way, he can save money. By the way, he also said that if you want to give me the Tu Su wine given by other disciples, I can't refuse. I'll take back as much as you give me."
"Ha, you betrayed him directly."
Ying Feiyang didn't hide it and said, "I don't like the trouble of carrying big jars and small jars up and down!"
"Where's your master? Is he still alone at the foot of the mountain? "
"Well, he should be catching up on his sleep. He won't get up before noon."
"He's still like this during the Spring Festival. He really finishes what he started." Shang Ying scolded Qing Ku Taoist and asked Ying Feiyang to have lunch. Ying Feiyang thought Qing Ku Taoist didn't get up, so he agreed, which made Xie Lingyan roll her eyes.
When the pills were poured into the water, the ones made by Xie Lingyan were all cracked. A good bowl of pills became sticky meat stew when they were fished out. Ying Feiyang was not picky. He ate them with big mouthfuls and felt that the taste was not enough. Then he opened a jar of Tu Su wine and poured half a jar into the bowl. The wine mixed with meat stew went down his stomach, which made people wonder what he and Qing Ku Taoist usually ate …
After eating and drinking, Shang Ying gave him two more bottles of Tu Su wine and asked him to take them down the mountain. Xie Lingyan also went with him. Xie Lingyan always stayed in Danxia Mount to hide from her father Xie Kangle. Now it was the Spring Festival, so she had to go back. When they were halfway, they saw a mountain not far away. The sound of a sword was heard, and the Sword Qi rushed into the sky.
Ying Feiyang's expression changed, and he praised, "What a strong Sword Qi! Which Elder is using the sword? "
Xie Lingyan curled her lips and said, "None of them. That direction is the Kirin Cave. Except for Ren Jiuxiao who has been grounded for two years, I guess there will be no one else!"
"Ren Jiuxiao has been grounded? Why? "It was the first time for Ying Feiyang to hear that.
"It's because of his nonsense at the Sword Washing Meeting in Fenghai. But it's more like a closed-door training than a grounding. Uncle Master taught him the Innumerable Sword Heaven Judgment Method, one of the six sword techniques of Ling Xiao Sword School, and grounded him. He probably enjoyed it. Well, he's almost the same as you. The Sword Qi rushed into the sky, and the sound of the sword was endless. It seems that he has mastered the Innumerable Sword Heaven Judgment Method! "
"Oh? He has also mastered the Innumerable Sword Heaven Judgment Method … "Ying Feiyang's eyes flickered, and he was eager to have a try.
It was said that the Innumerable Sword Heaven Judgment Method was created by the seventh Sect Master after he read the ultimate sword technique of Ling Xiao Sword School, the Innumerable Heavenly Sword Technique. In a sense, it was equivalent to the simplified version of the Innumerable Heavenly Sword Technique. In terms of power, it was definitely the strongest among the six sword techniques. Xie Lingyan didn't need to look to know what Ying Feiyang was thinking. She waved her hand and said, "Senior Sister, I'm going back to see my father. You can go wherever you want during the New Year. I can't control you …" Then she left without looking back.
As expected, Ying Feiyang turned around and went straight to the Qilin Cave where the sword sound came from. Although he was an outer disciple, it was the New Year, and not many disciples of the Sword Faction paid attention to him. Also, he was the champion of the Sword Trial Competition, and all the disciples of the Sword Faction knew him. Therefore, he wasn't stopped and swaggered up the mountain towards the Qilin Cave.
There should be no one in front of the Qilin Cave, but at this moment, there was a beautiful woman sitting on her knees outside the cave. She said to the cave, "Xiao 'er, it's the New Year now. The disciples on guard are not here, and the Sect Master has already turned a blind eye to it. Why do you insist? Come back with me to Su Mo Mountain to celebrate the New Year and eat some food. After the New Year, if you want to go back to this' prison ', I won't stop you."
Ying Feiyang dodged to the side and thought to himself, Ren Jiuxiao's mother? Is she Yue Tianqing, the sister of the Sword Emperor Yue Cangqiong? Then, he secretly looked at the beautiful woman and saw that her eyes and brows were indeed similar to Yue Cangqiong's, but she looked much younger.
Ren Jiuxiao's firm voice came from inside the cave, "Mother, since Master sentenced me to two years of confinement, I won't go out unless he pardoned me. You should know my temper."
Yue Tianqing said, "Xiao 'er, I know you love swords. The Sect Master punished you only so that you could cultivate the' Ten Thousand Swords of Heaven 'in peace. Now that you've succeeded in your cultivation, staying in the cave is just a waste of time. What's the point of sitting here?"
"The path of the sword is endless. Although I've cultivated the 'Ten Thousand Swords of Heaven', I still want to go one step further and integrate the sword art that uncle taught me into it. This Qilin Cave may look like it's bitter, but I'm willing to …"
Yue Tianqing tried her best to persuade him, but Ren Jiuxiao remained unmoved for a long time. In the end, he could only put down a lunchbox and sighed, "Sigh, stupid child, you're just like your father. You won't listen to me. Fine, I won't force you anymore. Those bastards only cared about playing during the New Year and forgot to bring you food. Luckily, I've prepared some for you. Here, it's all your favorite food. Eat it while it's hot, don't starve. "
Ren Jiuxiao responded, and Yue Tianqing stood up. She looked back three times with every step and reluctantly walked down the mountain.
Ying Feiyang waited until she was far away before he walked out from behind the tree and boldly flipped through Ren Jiuxiao's lunchbox. Suddenly, Ren Jiuxiao's voice became stern and he shouted, "Who's there?!"
Then, a sharp sword aura came straight at Ying Feiyang!
