Everything happened too fast.
The flying swords on the top of Tianguang Peak didn't react at all.
That was why the disciples of Aoyama were so shocked.
Once the flying swords were out, life and death would be decided immediately. The reason why they were shocked was not because of the blood on the cliff, the pair of broken arms, or the screaming Elder Bai.
The reason why they were shocked was not because of the result. Zhao Layue was the most talented genius in Aoyama Sect, and she had reached the upper state of Free Travel at such a young age. Even though she hadn't reached the state of Broken Sea, she took the opportunity when Bai Rujing's flying sword was swallowed by the Lord White Ghost.
The key was that none of the disciples of Aoyama expected that Zhao Layue would take the opportunity to take the sword out.
The timing she chose to take the sword out was too cruel and merciless, giving people a feeling that she would do anything.
The disciples of Aoyama could only see such a feeling from the evil sects; they didn't expect to see such a feeling from her.
Zhao Layue had natural Taoist quality, and she was the most admired by the young disciples of Aoyama before Jing Jiu. She was like a fairy in the eyes of others.
Later, she became the master of Shenmo Peak, holding a high position and power. She was far away from the ordinary disciples, and she was even more unreachable.
Who could have expected to see such a scene today?
It wasn't until now that many disciples of the Green Mountain remembered that Zhao Layue had killed many Cultivation practitioners and demons back when she left the mountain to travel for the first time. Her Cultivation state wasn't very high, but she had killed many Cultivation practitioners and demons, shocking the whole human world. They couldn't help but feel bewildered, thinking that she was actually such a brutal person.
Squatting on Jing Jiu's shoulder, Ada took a look at Zhao Layue and then at Nan Wang, who was standing at the edge of the cliff and looking into the distance, wondering why they were all like this.
"You, a sword devil, dared to attack the Elder of my sect."
Fang Jingtian stared at Jing Jiu and said coldly, "After doing so many evil things, do you still want to leave Aoyama alive?"
Everyone saw with their own eyes that it was Zhao Layue who made the move, but it did not affect him from blaming Jing Jiu for this.
"You've been extremely boring ever since you entered the sect, and today is especially so. You spoke too much, wanting to display your intelligence too much, yet you appeared very stupid, because intelligence is useless in the first place."
Jing Jiu looked at him and said, "Your master is the smartest person in the world, but why has he still achieved nothing and can only wander around like a dog?"
Hearing this insult to his Master, Fang Jingtian's eyes became even more gloomy and his killing intent became even stronger.
Jing Jiu said, "It's because he's too smart and too competitive. He always wants to predict what I'm thinking, but he doesn't know that I have nothing else in my heart. I don't have any thoughts at all. I've never thought about how to convince you that I'm Jingyang, and I've never thought about being the Sect Leader. Then how can he defeat me? "
Fang Jingtian sneered and wanted to ask why you accepted Senior Brother Liu Ci's posthumous edict if you don't have any thoughts. Why do you have to do so many things?
Before he could speak, Jing Jiu continued, "You can't keep me here. Later, you'll ask why I didn't leave the Inherited Heaven Sword and the Seal of the King Of The Underworld behind since I'm leaving. "
Many Elders and disciples still couldn't decide which side to take.
They thought that it was true and that it was fine to leave, but since you don't want to be the Sect Leader of Aoyama, you should leave the two treasures behind.
Both the Inherited Heaven Sword and the Seal of the King Of The Underworld could only be controlled by the Sect Leader of Aoyama.
"I won't take out the Inherited Heaven Sword, and I won't take out the Seal of the King Of The Underworld."
Jing Jiu said calmly, "Because I won't hand over the Sect Leader of Aoyama."
Hearing this, everyone was shocked. You're going to leave Aoyama with the people of Shenmo Peak. Isn't that the same as abdicating?
"I'm Jingyang. Then I'm still the same as I was before."
After saying this, Jing Jiu led Zhao Layue and the others to the cliff.
The top of Tianguang Peak was silent.
No one knew what to say.
What was the Enlightened Jingyang like?
The young disciples of Aoyama didn't know, but the Nine Peak Leaders like Fang Jingtian and Fu Wang and the experienced Elders wouldn't forget.
Uncle Jingyang didn't care about worldly affairs. He only knew how to cultivate in seclusion.
Occasionally, when something big happened and he was disturbed by Liu Ci and Yuan Qijing, he would only say one sentence.
That sentence was not the catchphrase of the Aoyama Sect — "Do you want to die?"
It was — "Really … annoying."
So you didn't leave Aoyama because you were annoyed, but because you were annoyed?
Seeing Jing Jiu walking to the edge of the cliff, many Cultivation practitioners had a feeling that it was absurd.
"Only the dead won't be annoyed."
Fang Jingtian said expressionlessly.
An extremely cold Sword Will appeared in the sky.
The sea of clouds sensed it and extended countless fine threads, which looked like branches and leaves.
At the end of those branches and leaves, there was a tangible sharpness condensed by the Sword Will.
The Sword Will, which could bend and straighten, covered the entire sky like the branches of a plum tree that had been twisted by man.
No matter how unpredictable and fast Jing Jiu's movements were, he couldn't pass through it.
Was this the power of a Heavenly Arrival State figure?
How did Fang Jingtian do it?
He had just reached the Heavenly Arrival State, but it was difficult for even a Cultivator at the peak of the Heavenly Arrival State to cover the sky and earth in an instant.
Today, Bai Zhenren was the one with the highest state, and she was the only one who had seen the truth.
Fang Jingtian had been talking since he pushed the wheelchair to Tianguang Peak.
Later, the Immortal Tai Lu was punched to death by Jing Jiu, and Bai Rujing's arms were chopped off by Zhao Layue, but he didn't do anything.
He only spoke sullenly, angrily, with a sneer, of the evidence, and of the things that, by reason of reason, he ought to have said.
As Jing Jiu had said, it was really boring.
Who would have thought that from the very beginning, he had been pouring the Sword Will in his body into Tianguang Peak through his feet?
The Sword Will turned into the weakest strands, penetrated the mountain peak, and reached the sea of clouds. Then it gradually accumulated until it finally formed the power of the sea.
With a thought, he could cover the sky and earth and trap Jing Jiu in Aoyama.
Yes, the fourth disciple of Taiping Zhenren, the one who had kept a low profile in Aoyama for many years, broke through the Hermit Peaks in just seven years, and became a flower in the Heavenly Arrival State, Fang Jingtian.
He could be boring, but how could he be incompetent?
…
…
The Sword Will that covered the sky and earth fell like a storm.
A flying sword slashed at Jing Jiu.
It came in a hurry.
Like a year old.
The elders and disciples of Xilai Peak, and more disciples of Aoyama, who thought Jing Jiu was the sword demon, also rushed over on their flying swords!
The beautiful spring sun dimmed in an instant. Countless bright sword gleams illuminated the top of Tianguang Peak, piercing through the air. The flying swords that wanted to protect Jing Jiu were instantly destroyed!
The sky was filled with flying swords with unimaginable power. Even if Jing Jiu was carrying Ah Da, it was impossible for him to block it, and he was about to be cut into pieces!
Jing Jiu did not seem to know that the hundreds of flying swords were about to fall, and still carried the cat to the edge of the cliff.
Suddenly, a light mirror appeared in the sky.
This light mirror was so large that it enshrouded the entire Tianguang Peak.
Although it was called a light mirror, it was not transparent, and it gave people a deep feeling.
The surface of the light mirror was flowing with countless golden characters of scriptures.
No, it should be said that it was flowing, like a body.
A tranquil and profound Zen Will appeared among the peaks.
A loud bang resounded!
The light mirror blocked Fang Jingtian's Like a Year sword. The wind howled in the sky, the clouds scattered, and even the great formation of Aoyama was forced to show itself.
The hundreds of flying swords that came from the elders and disciples of Aoyama also fell on the light mirror like a storm, giving off a thunderous sound.
The golden characters of scriptures on the light mirror glowed brightly, and the hundreds of flying swords were knocked away. Grunts could be heard all over the peaks.
Fang Jingtian's body swayed slightly, and his face paled.
Even a Connecting Heaven State like him was at a disadvantage, what kind of treasure of Zen Sect was that light mirror?
He looked at a certain place in the sky, and shouted sternly, "Does Zen Master want to protect this sword demon!"
At some point, Zen Master had already left the cloud platform, and came to his own lotus throne.
He sat beside the lotus, his bare feet stretched out in the clouds, and his eyes were clear and innocent, like a playful child.
However, the Small Mirror of Light in his hand gave off an extremely terrifying feeling.
"You don't believe that he is the Spiritual Master of Jingyang."
Zen Master looked at Fang Jingtian and said, "But I believe him."
The peaks of Aoyama fell silent once more.
The flying swords that had been preparing to attack Jing Jiu also gradually stopped.
It was common knowledge that the Spiritual Master of Jingyang did not have many friends, the only exception being the Zen Master of Guocheng Temple. The two had once discussed the Dao for a hundred days at Shenmo Peak, and their relationship was like that of a teacher and a friend.
If one were to ask who was most familiar with the Spiritual Master of Jingyang, besides Yuan Qijing and Fang Jingtian, it would be him.
His opinion was of course very important, and would affect the judgment of many people.
Fang Jingtian extended his hand to call back the Time Sword, and expressionlessly said, "This demon has seized Martial Uncle Jing's soul and memories, so it is naturally very similar to Martial Uncle. Zen Master, do not be deceived by it."
Zen Master laughed as if he had heard the most interesting thing in the world, and said, "You think I would be deceived?"
Guocheng Temple was most skilled in the Two Minds Connection.
This was something that everyone knew.
Fang Jingtian's expression was rather unsightly, and he said, "This is, after all, the internal affairs of our Aoyama Sect. I ask that Zen Master not interfere."
Zen Master's smile faded, and he sternly said, "You are wrong. Anything related to the Spiritual Master of Jingyang is a matter of the world, and anyone can interfere."
… …
… …
"Enough."
Yuan Qijing's cold and stern voice echoed among the peaks.
Looking at Jing Jiu, who had already walked to the edge of the cliff, he said after a moment of silence, "Please … please rest outside the mountain for a while, but don't go too far."
Fang Jingtian's eyes turned cold, and he asked, "What are you going to do, Brother?"
"I am the Sword Justice of Aoyama," Yuan Qijing said expressionlessly. "I don't need your permission to do anything."
This was the rule of Aoyama. Even though Fang Jingtian was already a figure in the Heavenly Arrival State, he had no reason and no right to overturn Yuan Qijing's decision.
Fang Jingtian stared into his eyes and said, "Zen Master also said that anything related to Martial Uncle is a matter of the world. I'm afraid that you alone can't decide this matter."
If what the Young Zen Master said was sensible, what Jing Jiu said was also sensible.
The choice of the sect master was indeed an internal affair of the Aoyama Sect, and other sects had no right to interfere.
But if the new sect master of Aoyama was a demon who colluded with the Underworld, it would be a threat to the human race; how could other sects ignore it?
Fang Jingtian's intention was clear. Now that Yuan Qijing chose not to discuss this matter, he had no choice but to make it known to the whole Cultivation circle.
Countless gazes were fixed on the cloud platforms in all directions.
… …
… …
The first to express his opinion was the leader of Ōzawa, who didn't have much of a presence.
The benevolent-looking tall man with long hair draped over his shoulders shook his head and said, "We have no objection."
This was a neutral position.
The Sect Master of the Mirror Sect gave the same opinion after taking a look at Que Niang.
He was inclined to believe that Jing Jiu was the All in One Sword, but who could be sure? And the relationship between the Mirror Sect and the Immortal Jing Jiu had been quite good lately.
The sects in the south that had the best relationship with the Aoyama Sect were the Ōzawa, the Mirror Sect, the Platanus Sect, and the No-Mercy Sect.
The No-Mercy Sect was sealing off their mountains, so the Platanus Sect was the next to express their opinion.
Sitting in the wheelchair, Chen Xueqiao looked at the man in white clothing on the top of Tianguang Peak and said with a sweet smile, "We of course trust the Sect Master Jing."
Sensei felt helpless, and turned her head around to avoid looking at her mother.
The Duke Of He stood up and looked at Yuan Qijing, Fang Jingtian, and the others. He said respectfully and frankly, "Whether the Immortal Sect Master is the reincarnation of the Immortal Jingyang or the All in One Sword is a demon, I can't tell with my mortal eyes; but … to tell the truth, I'm not worried at all. It's because the Emperor's decree states clearly that the Sect Master of Aoyama is the Immortal Jing Jiu."
Hearing this, the crowd came back to their senses after a moment of bewilderment, and understood what he meant.
It was true. It didn't matter whether the Immortal Jingyang took the sword or the sword demon took the spirit, as long as Jing Jiu was still the same Jing Jiu, it was enough.
It was because the person the Emperor recognized was Jing Jiu.
