It was rumored that ever since its birth, no one had ever seen the true form of the celestial sword, the Ninth Heaven Thunder. One could only hear its sound, but not see its form.
Behind the birth of every celestial artifact, there were countless people who worked in silence. The Ninth Heaven Thunder was not at the Mysterious Grade from the beginning. It was passed down through the generations of the Court Of Sword and slowly refined.
At some point, the Ninth Heaven Thunder had become the symbol of power for the Court Of Sword. The holder of it would be the next Sect Leader. However, to control such a huge and complicated system like the Court Of Sword, one had to be in the Divine Domain. This had always been the rule.
The fact that Feng Jiu had been recognized by the Ninth Heaven Thunder as its master meant that the celestial sword had also recognized a new master. There would be no more accidents. Once he broke through the seventh realm, he could ascend to the position of Sect Leader.
Even the high and mighty immortals in the eyes of mortals could not escape the shackles of replacing the old with the new.
However, the passing of the torch had always been like this.
The person who came was the current Sect Leader of the Court Of Sword, Guan Shanhai. After handing over the celestial artifact, he was silent for a moment. He pressed on Feng Jiu's shoulder and said, "Treat it well."
"I understand," Feng Jiu said.
"You may leave," Guan Shanhai said.
Feng Jiu stood up, bowed respectfully, and left. Before he took over as Sect Leader, he was still the first disciple of the Heavenly Sword Peak.
Guan Shanhai returned to his seat and said with a smile, "I'll have to take up some of your time. Let me invite the heroes of the Cangjian Peak to come up. Right, I haven't seen the disciple who broke through the fourth realm. Come up and let me have a look. "
Hearing the summons, the people of the Cangjian Peak immediately suppressed their excitement. One by one, they obediently went up the stage. With Cao Zijun in the lead, they bowed to Guan Shanhai and said,
"Greetings to Sect Leader (Senior)."
"Good, good, good. No need to bow. Hmm? Where's Feng Xin? I was wondering why it would be so quiet with her here. Why isn't she here? "
Cao Zijun replied calmly, "Reporting to Headmaster Senior Brother, Junior Sister Lu was injured in the fight with the Fengtian Sect, so she went back to recuperate."
"Is that so? Of course." Guan Shanhai nodded. His eyes swept across the crowd and finally stopped on Yan Li. "You're Yan Li?"
"Disciple Yan Li greets the Sect Leader." Yan Li bowed and cupped his fists.
"Raise your head and let me have a look," said Guan Shanhai with a smile.
Yan Li straightened up.
This was Yan Li's first time seeing Guan Shanhai. He was wearing a dark purple robe that was embroidered with moon-white runes. The runes interweaved with a mysterious aura; it was clearly a first-rate treasure. A black cloak was draped over his shoulders and laid flat on the chair. His hair was neatly combed and tied into a cross-shaped crown. His white hair fluttered silently. The wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were very deep. His face was fair without any facial hair, but it made his wrinkles even more obvious.
All the details told others that he was no longer young. Only his eyes were still full of vitality, as if he were a student about to go on an outing, full of sunshine and vitality.
"Good, very handsome. But I'm still a little better. When I was young, I charmed the hearts of thousands of girls, "said Guan Shanhai with a smile.
Everyone laughed. Of course, the Sect Leader was not so easy-going that he could make a fuss at will, so he just laughed.
"Of course I can't be compared with the Sect Leader," said Yan Li.
"Not now." Guan Shanhai sighed and stroked the white hair at his temples. "I went to the Sword-enshrining Tower yesterday, but the female disciple guarding the Sword Garret didn't even look at me. Alas, time and tide wait for no man."
"Oh?" Ye Qinglan immediately covered her mouth and laughed. "Which beauty is it that doesn't even care about the Sect Leader? Good job."
"Junior Sister Lan, it's fine if you don't speak for me, but why do you make fun of me?" Guan Shanhai said helplessly.
Ye Qinglan said, "Senior Brother, don't be like that mortal. The older you get, the more verbose you become. You've seen them, and you should hurry up with the reward. You're not tired of sitting, but you have to think about your disciples. "
She was the only one in the entire Court Of Sword who dared to talk to Guan Shanhai like this.
Guan Shanhai was not annoyed. He said with a smile, "You're right."
He turned to Yan Li and said, "Yan Li, you've seen these Peak Lords when you entered the sect, so I won't introduce them to you. You'll have the chance to get to know them in the future. You've been in the sect for a few days, so I'm sure you've seen and heard a lot. Do you have anything to say? "
"I do have some," said Yan Li.
"Oh?" said Guan Shanhai.
"The seven branches of the Court Of Sword are the masters of Sword Taoism in the world, and they account for more than eight." Yan Li said, "The subtleties of the sword are all in the Record of Sword, which contains 1,135 sword techniques. When mastered, the sword can sweep through all directions and is invincible. There are about five hundred disciples, and each of them has unique skills. Don't underestimate them. "
Lu Wuzhang, the Peak Lord of the Sword Peak, listened with delight, "Listen, listen, this child is so good at talking. I told you long ago that sword techniques are the core of Sword Taoism. "
No one paid attention to him.
Yan Li said, "The Ruler Has Its Strengths and Weaknesses. The Sword Control Technique is unparalleled in the world. There are nine hundred and six disciples in the Sword Control Peak. When they use their swords together, the whistling of the swords is like a tide, and no one dares to stop them. "
A man with a long beard looked proud and stroked his long beard, "You're right."
Yan Li said, "Listening to Sound can be used to watch the tide, and the power of the sword is unparalleled. There are six hundred disciples in the Heart Sword Peak, and they transmit their swords in the Echo Valley, forming a world of their own. "
"Yes." Another man nodded slightly, "Very detailed investigation."
Yan Li said, "The Three Thousand Great Worlds is very detailed, and it puts the spiritual spirit into the realm of the sword, turning the soul into a sword. When mastered, there is nothing that can't be a sword. There are more than three hundred disciples in the Soul Sword Peak, and Chief Ye is famous in the Jambu World for preaching. The three hundred disciples can all be independent. Even if they are abandoned disciples, they have the strength of experts on the Heavenly Star Ranking. "
Ye Qinglan said proudly, "Of course. Under my guidance, even a pig can become a top swordsman."
Yan Li said, "The Killing Bodhi has two swords, Flowing Flame and Killing Blaze. The killing path becomes saintly, and the Bodhi in the sword is proven. There are three thousand disciples in the Bright Sword Peak, and their reputation is second only to the strongest Sky Sword Peak. "
The Peak Lord of the Bright Sword Peak, Duan Changtian, smiled and said nothing.
Yan Li looked at Guan Shanhai, "The Heavenly Sword Seal is about returning to the origin, and the unity of heaven and man is the key. Once the sword seal is formed, the wind and clouds can be shaken. There are a hundred thousand disciples of the Heavenly Sword Peak, and when they breathe, it's as if heavenly thunder is rolling, and heavenly thunder and scarlet rain are everywhere. It can be said that the Heavenly Sword Peak is the main reason why the Sword Court has its current status. "
Guan Shanhai said with a noncommittal smile, "Little Yan Li, what are you trying to say with so much foreshadowing?"
Yan Li cupped his fists and said, "The Hidden Sword Log is mainly about hiding. Once it makes a move, it will take the enemy's life. However, there are less than ten disciples in the Cangjian Peak, and its reputation is the weakest, and its status is the lowest. It can be said that the words of the lowly carry little weight … "
