The second night!
— — —
The sun shone on the earth. The Crescent Moon Lake was still covered in ice and snow.
A chilly air pervaded the air.
"Ha! Ha!" Yang Dong, who was wearing a leather jacket, leaped and pounced. He seemed to have become a wild beast. He was practicing the 《Twelve Forms of Xing Yi》 that Teng Qingshan taught him. The 《Twelve Forms of Xing Yi》 was the foundation of the Xing Yi Internal Martial Arts, so he naturally had to practice hard.
His Senior Martial Brother Teng Shou, who grew up among wild beasts, mastered the 《Twelve Forms of Xing Yi》 in just a few days.
"Clop! Clop! Clop! "
The sound of hooves rang out. Yang Dong stopped practicing and looked up. He saw over ten Blazing Silver Hous stop, and over ten horsemen leaped down.
"These War Hous …" Yang Dong's pupils shrank, and he was secretly shocked.
"Young Brother," The leader of the horsemen took off his helmet and cupped his hands as he said with a smile, "May I ask where Mister Teng is?" Normally, the superior Tantai Huayan would not be so polite to an ordinary youth. However, this was the Crescent Moon Lake of the Godly Axe Mountain. It was not a place for them to act presumptuously.
"You are looking for Teacher?" Yang Dong asked in surprise.
"So you are Mister Teng's disciple." Tantai Huayan smiled and said, "You are indeed a heroic youth. We rushed over from the Eastern Flower Region to pay our respects to Mister Teng. Please pass the message."
The tall woman beside Tantai Huayan also took off her helmet, revealing a beautiful face that could captivate people. Her long hair was spread out, and her skin was so tender that it seemed as if water could come out of it. In particular, her soul-stirring eyes were like pools of limpid autumn water.
Yang Dong, who had suffered hardships since he was young and experienced the coldness and chaos of the world, believed that he would not be tempted by beauty. However, at this moment, he could not help but hold his breath.
"So beautiful …" Yang Dong felt his head buzzing.
Seeing this, Tantai Qing smiled and said softly, "Young Brother, we are here to see Mister Teng. Please pass the message." This soft voice seemed to melt into one's heart, and Yang Dong felt as if he was floating. At this moment, a young girl walked out of the house and asked, "You are here to see Mister?"
"Little Ping." Yang Dong immediately sobered up. He couldn't help but curse himself for being bewitched by a woman.
When Little Ping was nine years old, she had followed Teng Qingshan for more than a year. Because she had eaten well, the originally malnourished and thin girl had now become a pretty and lively young girl. She was only a head shorter than Li Jun. Girls had always developed earlier than boys. At this time, Little Ping's body was growing.
"Everyone." Little Ping smiled as she looked at the members of the Tantai Clan and said, "My Lord is currently in closed-door cultivation. He has already instructed that no one is allowed to disturb him during his cultivation. Gentlemen, please go back. "
"Little Miss, please pass on the message." Tantai Huayan smiled as he handed over a golden melon seed.
Little Ping didn't take it. Instead, she smiled faintly and said, "Everyone … I've already said it very clearly. No one is allowed to disturb Master's cultivation, so we can't go and see Master. If you really want to see him, you can wait here. When the Lord was cultivating, he would occasionally come out. As for the others … we can't do anything about it. "With this, she turned and walked towards the stone house.
"What she said is true. If you want to see him, you can wait here." With this, Yang Dong walked back into the house.
Teng Qingshan had indeed instructed — —
If it was someone he knew, such as the Great Elder of the Rising Sun Trading Company, they could interrupt his cultivation. As for outsiders … … they could ignore them. For the current Teng Qingshan, the most important thing was to focus on cultivation and reach the Emptiness Realm as soon as possible. As for the matters of Duanmu Continent, what did it have to do with him?
After all, he still had to return to the Land of the Nine Prefectures in the future.
"Third Uncle." Tantai Qing looked at Tantai Huayan, who was beside her.
Tantai Huayan looked anxious as he said, "This is troublesome. The great clans of the Eastern Flower Region will probably send people to the Godly Axe Mountain in Nanshan City as soon as possible. Our Tantai Clan has the geographical advantage and can be the first to arrive. However … … the various clans must be using superior One-horned War Hous, which can cover a few thousand Li in a day. They will at most be one to four hours slower than us. "
They were all in the Eastern Flower Region and were not too far away from each other.
"Teng Qingshan is actually cultivating in seclusion." Tantai Qing frowned. She was like a delicate flower that needed people's pity. She indeed had a charm that made people's hearts tremble.
However … …
Teng Qingshan was cultivating in seclusion and couldn't see her at all.
*****
Inside the stone house, Li Jun was wearing a thick fur coat and sitting on a chair draped with animal skins. She was knitting clothes with a peaceful smile on her face. This was the clothes she was knitting for Teng Qingshan.
"Little Ping, are those people still outside?" Li Jun stopped and stretched, revealing the graceful curves of her body under the fur coat.
Little Ping looked outside through the window and nodded, "Sister Jun, those people are still outside. Eh … … "
"What's wrong?" Li Jun asked in surprise.
"The Thunder Blade Martial Saint, Mister Fu, is here." Little Ping looked outside through the window and said in surprise.
"Mister Fu Dao?" Li Jun put down the clothes she was knitting and said, "Let's go and take a look."
No matter what, Fu Dao and Teng Qingshan were old acquaintances and friends.
… …
By the Crescent Moon Lake, the group of people from the Tantai Clan had just waited for a while when Fu Dao appeared alone on his War Hou.
"Haha, Tantai Huayan, you are really fast," Fu Dao said with a laugh.
"Mister Fu Dao, you are not late either." Tantai Huayan glanced at him and responded with a fake smile.
At this moment, Li Jun walked out together with Little Ping. Although Tantai Qing was breathtakingly beautiful, Li Jun, who had a special temperament, and Little Ping, who had just grown up and was already showing a hint of elegance, were equally eye-catching when they walked together.
"Mister Fu," Li Jun greeted with a smile.
"Miss Li," Fu Dao said with a smile.
The expressions of Tantai Huayan and Tantai Qing from the Tantai Clan changed slightly. They knew … … that the person closest to Teng Qingshan was a girl named Li Jun.
"Greetings, Miss Li." Tantai Huayan and Tantai Qing spoke at the same time. As a beautiful woman, Tantai Qing naturally compared herself to Li Jun. With this comparison, Tantai Qing became even more confident. She obviously concluded that the woman closest to Teng Qingshan could not compare to herself.
"Mister Fu is also here to see Big Brother Teng?" Li Jun asked with a smile.
"Yes, there is an important matter." Fu Dao nodded solemnly. "It is very important."
"Oh?" Seeing Fu Dao being so serious, Li Jun nodded and said, "Mister Fu, please wait here for a moment. I will go and invite Big Brother Teng." With this, Li Jun walked towards the southern forest. This scene made the people of the Tantai Clan understand … … that Teng Qingshan was not living in the stone house, but was cultivating in seclusion somewhere else.
In just a moment —
A young man wearing an azure leather coat, with his long hair hanging loosely over his shoulders and a face with some stubble, walked side by side with Li Jun. The appearance of this young man attracted the attention of the people of the Tantai Clan and Fu Dao from afar. The breathing of many people of the Tantai Clan quickened, and Tantai Qing's eyes brightened.
The legendary Most Powerful Martial Saint … …
An extremely mysterious expert … …
His name was … … Teng Qingshan!
"Haha, Fu Dao, long time no see." From afar, Teng Qingshan's hearty laughter could be heard.
"It has indeed been a long time, but I am ashamed to say that I am here to ask for Mister's help." Fu Dao appeared very humble and polite.
Seeing this scene, Tantai Huayan, who was at the side, sighed inwardly. The rumors were indeed not groundless. Just from the fact that the Golden Dan Innate Martial Saint Fu Dao was so respectful and courteous, one could guess how powerful Teng Qingshan was.
"These are?" Teng Qingshan glanced at Tantai Qing and said with a smile, "This must be Lady Tantai Qing. I saw you last time at the auction of the Blunt Vanadium Stone Tablets."
"Last time, I wanted to chat with Mister, but Mister was busy fetching gold to buy the Blunt Vanadium Stone Tablets, so I didn't have the chance to chat with Mister." Tantai Qing smiled, and it seemed as if the surrounding scenery had brightened because of her. "This time, I can finally chat with Mister. I am also very proud to be able to chat with the legendary Most Powerful Martial Saint. "
Teng Qingshan smiled faintly.
It was undeniable that chatting with a beautiful girl was indeed relaxing and joyful. Moreover, this beautiful girl was very tactful.
"Fu Dao, are you and the Tantai Clan here for the same matter?" Teng Qingshan guessed and asked.
"Mister is amazing." Fu Dao nodded. "I wonder if Mister has heard that a Fiery Gilt Steel Ore Vein has been discovered in the Eastern Flower Region."
"Fiery Gilt Steel Ore Vein?" Teng Qingshan was somewhat puzzled. He had never heard of such a material. At least, in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, there was no such thing as a Fiery Gilt Steel Ore Vein.
"Yes, let's talk inside." Teng Qingshan was not the slightest bit impatient. At the same time, he glanced at the Tantai Clan and said, "The two of you, come in as well."
Tantai Huayan and Fu Dao looked at each other, smiled, and followed Teng Qingshan into the house.
… …
In this spacious house that was specially used to entertain guests, there were many carvings on the walls. A few stone pillars even had reliefs of spiraling divine dragons. A large and smooth table was placed in the hall. Teng Qingshan, Fu Dao, Tantai Huayan, and Tantai Qing sat down.
"Fu Dao, what is this Fiery Gilt Steel Ore that you speak of? I really don't know anything about it, "Teng Qingshan said.
Tantai Qing couldn't help but glance at Teng Qingshan when she heard this. She said, "As expected of the most powerful Innate Martial Saint at such a young age. He is also the expert with the highest chance of becoming a Martial Immortal. He is indeed very hardworking. I reckon that he usually concentrates on cultivation and can't be bothered with these trifling matters. "
Tantai Qing secretly praised Teng Qingshan's ignorance.
Humans were like this.
If a small figure spoke the truth, others would laugh at him.
However, if he was a big shot, others would turn black into white even if he was wrong.
"The Fiery Gilt Steel Ore is an extremely precious material used to forge armors and weapons." Fu Dao explained, "In terms of hardness, it is much stronger than Darksteel. Even a Hollow Dan Innate Martial Saint would find it hard to pierce through a thin layer of Fiery Gilt Steel Armor. Moreover, it is extremely light. It is much lighter than Darksteel. A set of Fiery Gilt Steel Armor only weighs thirty to forty Jin. "
When Teng Qingshan heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked.
"An armor that weighs thirty to forty Jin? Even Hollow Dan Innate Experts can't break it? " Teng Qingshan's heart was in turmoil. "If my Gui Yuan Sect used the Elixir of the North Sea to create over ten thousand warriors at the peak of the Postliminary Realm … Then, we could make over ten thousand warriors at the peak of the Postliminary Realm wear armor that even Hollow Dan Innate Experts can't break. Then … who can stop this army of ten thousand? "
"It wouldn't be difficult to flatten Qing Hu Island."
Teng Qingshan immediately saw the special significance of the Fiery Gilt Steel Armor. It would play a terrifying role in the struggle for supremacy.
