There was no cycle of time in the mountains, and no one knew the year after the winter.
Lu Qingshan had been in seclusion in the Hidden Sword Scabbard for more than two months. In the end, he had comprehended the third Secret Sword Technique.
In the outside world, news about him had long since spread.
Although there had been a lot of big news recently, it still caused quite a stir.
Lu Qingshan had become the Sword Sect's Junior Sect Master!
This news was like a sudden clap of thunder, shocking countless people.
The news spread at a terrifying speed. In a short period of time, it had spread throughout the Seven Realms of the Human Race.
Many experts of the Human Race had heard the news, and they were all discussing it.
This was especially true for the higher-ups of the Dao Sect. Compared to others, this news was more important. They were evaluating the matter.
"Sword Immortal Qingyun decided on the Junior Sect Master so quickly?"
"The Sword Sect actually chose a Soul Formation cultivator as its Junior Sect Master. How could Sword Immortal Qingyun be so childish? Is this news true or false? "
Not to mention the Junior Sect Master of the Dao Sect, even the position of Junior Sect Master of a top-tier sect had never been taken by a Soul Formation cultivator.
"The news is definitely true. There's no doubt about it."
"But isn't this too crazy?"
"Sword Immortal Qingyun must be certain that Lu Qingshan has the potential to become a Sword Immortal. That's why he did this, right?" Someone tried to speculate.
"Potential to become a Sword Immortal? Lu Qingshan isn't the only one in this generation of the Sword Sect who has the potential to become a Sword Immortal. Why did it have to be him, who has the lowest cultivation? "
"Let's not talk about anything else first. Isn't his master, Fairy Luoshen Xia Daoyun, also publicly acknowledged as a potential Sword Immortal? She's also a Realm Eight cultivator. Why didn't he choose Xia Daoyun as the Junior Sect Master?" Some people who didn't understand the situation were even more confused.
But no matter what, countless sects in the vast Human Realm had at least heard this news in the past two months. They had a different understanding of Lu Qingshan.
Sword Immortal Qingyun's judgment was definitely better than theirs.
Since Sword Immortal Qingyun had chosen Lu Qingshan to be the Sword Sect's Young Master, it meant that there were many things about Lu Qingshan that they couldn't see.
"I suddenly thought of something. Could it be that Lu Qingshan's advancement in his cultivation is ridiculously swift because the Sword Sect has already decided on him as the future Junior Sect Master, so they gave him all sorts of resources and fostered him without any regard for losses. Moreover, they created momentum for him and gave him the reputation of being the strongest at the fourth realm and fifth realm?"
"What a joke, what a joke. Is the reputation of being the strongest Level Four and Level Five something that can be created?"
"As for nurturing Lu Qingshan regardless of the cost, do you really think that you can rely on resources to build up his combat strength? A frog at the bottom of a well, extremely ignorant! "
"Without a doubt, Lu Qingshan is a super genius."
"How talented is he?"
"He's a peerless genius that might not appear in the human race for a thousand years. Perhaps even in the entire First Heaven Era, he's the most heaven-defying and terrifying genius that no one will be able to surpass in the future."
"That's hard to say. The First Heaven Era has just begun …" Some people were unconvinced and retorted. However, they did not have much confidence.
A 33-year-old perfected Soul Formation cultivator and a 23-year-old Taoist Sect's Young Master. In any case, this was the first time they had seen such a person in Chang 'an in the past 20,000 years.
.....
In a secluded area.
Black shadows swirled around.
This was where the Hades of the various regions gathered to discuss matters.
"Three times. Three attempts to kill him. Not only did we suffer heavy losses, but we also failed at the last step.
We've watched him grow from the champion of the Seven Regions Dao Symposium to the Sword Sect's Young Master today. You guys really think he's a piece of trash, an absolute piece of trash! "Zhang Heng of the North Region had a blurry appearance and a loud voice.
The West Region's Mansion Master Yulei, the East Region's Zhenren Wang, the East Region's Mansion Master Wen He, and the South Region's Mansion Master Zi Ren all had ugly expressions on their faces.
The North Region's other Mansion Master of the Hades, Yang Yun, sensed that the atmosphere was not right. He gave Mansion Master Zhang Heng a look.
If there was only one person, it would be fine if Yang Yun insulted him. After all, he was in the right.
However, there were three Hades of the Regions who had tried to kill Lu Qingshan and failed. If Yang Yun mocked him now, the scope of his attack would be too wide.
Mansion Master Zhang Heng snorted and quieted down.
"Let's not talk about Lu Qingshan for now. We're like clay Bodhisattvas crossing a river. We can't even protect ourselves now. How can we have the time to care about him?" Mansion Master Ji Kang of the Middle Martial Region laughed.
Ever since the Water Moon Observatory's Mansion Master took over the position of Zhishou Tower's Mansion Master, the fire had spread throughout the Seven Regions of the Human Race.
Once the collusion between the cultivators of King Qing's faction, the Demons, and the Hades was exposed, Mansion Master Luohe was captured and imprisoned for interrogation. Everything was exposed.
After nearly ten thousand years of cooperation, no matter how careful they were, there was still too much information that was exposed to the cultivators of King Qing's faction and Mansion Master Luohe.
Because the Hades of the Middle Heaven Region had opened up too wide and almost all of them were wiped out, Zhishou Tower used the Middle Heaven Region's Hades as a breakthrough point and pointed their sword at the other six regions.
For a time, the Hades were in the greatest crisis in history. Everyone was in danger.
It was difficult to protect themselves. How could they have the mind to plan to kill Lu Qingshan in the bud?
Moreover, who dared to say that Lu Qingshan was in the bud?
He was the strongest of the Five Realms and had reached the peak of the Divine Transformation Realm. Coupled with his identity as the Sword Sect's Young Master, Lu Qingshan was now unfathomable in everyone's eyes.
"Mansion Master Zhou Qi was caught by Shuiyue a month ago. Who knows if he can keep his mouth shut? Our situation is very bad now," Zhenren Wang said in a low voice.
"What did the higher-ups say?" Mansion Master Wen He suddenly looked at the calm black figure sitting in the center.
It was the Mansion Master of Fengdu of the Middle Spirit Region.
The Hades of the Middle Spirit Region was the headquarters of the Hades and their leader.
The situation was very critical now. The Hades of the Middle Heaven Region was almost completely wiped out. The Hades of the other six regions were also in imminent danger.
After all, in terms of strength, they did not have much room to resist in front of Zhishou Tower. Previously, they had only lurked in the dark and caused trouble.
Now that the situation was gradually becoming clearer, they did not have much room to resist.
They could only hope that the headquarters had a good plan.
"Abandon the rook to save the king," the Mansion Master of Fengdu said calmly.
"Immediately send all the cultivators of the Hades to various places to cause trouble in the Human Realm and attract the attention of the Human Clan. Quietly cut off all connections, erase all traces, and save your own lives," he said.
Mansion Master Yulei exclaimed in disbelief, "We're abandoning the Hades that we spent tens of thousands of years building?"
The Mansion Master of Fengdu nodded indifferently. "Yes, we're abandoning it."
"Just bring out its final value." He laughed sinisterly and meaningfully.
The reason they built the Hades was to stir up trouble in the Human Realm, attract the attention of the Human Clan cultivators, create internal strife, and consume the strength of the Human Clan at the same time.
But now, "Spirit Seize" was about to be activated. If it succeeded, the Hades would be useless. If it failed, the Hades would be even more useless.
Therefore, at this juncture, if something happened to the Hades, they would not feel any heartache at all.
Since the Human Clan was actively targeting the Hades, then let them be. They could also make use of the Hades to attract the attention of the Human Clan cultivators.
The Mansion Master of Fengdu was confident. He looked up at the sky again.
The clouds rolled and moved, treacherous and changeable.
Just like the situation of the Human Clan.
.....
Sword Sect, outside the Hidden Sword Scabbard.
Thirty-seven swords formed a group of swords that fell from the sky and wreaked havoc.
At this moment, clouds rolled in from all directions, forming a scene of wind and clouds in the sky above the Hidden Sword Scabbard.
A moment later, thirty-six swords melted like autumn frost and disappeared into nothingness.
Only then did the world become clear.
Whoosh!
Just as Lu Qingshan put away his sword, a sword light flew over from afar.
He turned his head to look. The sword light dissipated, and an old sword cultivator appeared.
It was Hope Elephant, the peak master of Hua Ying Peak.
"Master's Uncle," Lu Qingshan greeted with a smile.
Seeing Lu Qingshan greet him, Hope Elephant could not help but sigh as he looked at Lu Qingshan's handsome face.
Who would have thought that the junior he thought highly of a few years ago would achieve such great achievements in such a short time?
Lu Qingshan was now the famous Sword Sect's Young Master in the Seven Regions. In terms of status, he was much higher than Hope Elephant.
"Young Master Lu, what's this?" Hope Elephant pointed to the surroundings. He was attracted by the commotion here and rushed over.
Lu Qingshan chuckled and explained, "I just had an epiphany in the Hidden Sword Scabbard. In a moment of excitement, I didn't pay attention to where I was and practiced a sword technique."
"Epiphany?" Hope Elephant was slightly puzzled. He looked at the remnants of the Qi around him and asked, "Did you learn some high-level sword technique? Is this the Big Sword Stars? "
"It doesn't look like it. The Big Sword Stars has remnants of stars. Is it the Sword Aura Sprout? No, there doesn't seem to be any Sword Aura left. "He frowned as he could not tell what sword technique Lu Qingshan was using.
The remnants of the Qi were spectacular. The first thing he thought of was the Big Sword Stars and the Sword Aura Sprout.
These two sword techniques were famous for their enormous Qi.
However, after a closer look, he realized that some of the characteristics did not match.
He could not help but look at Lu Qingshan. "What sword technique is this?"
"Autumn Frost Ning," Lu Qingshan answered.
"Autumn Frost Ning?" Hearing this, Hope Elephant could not help but frown. He racked his brains but could not recall anything. "What era is this external sword technique from? Why haven't I heard of it before?"
Lu Qingshan shook his head and explained embarrassedly, "This is a secret sword technique I created myself."
Hope Elephant was stunned.
Then, his pupils shrank as waves of emotions surged in his heart.
"You're saying …" Xi Xiang looked around at the scattered clouds in disbelief. "You've created a … secret art?!"
Lu Qingshan nodded. "I just had an epiphany."
Then, he saluted Hope Elephant with a fist salute. "Master's Junior, I'll take my leave now."
"Mm …" Hope Elephant nodded woodenly.
Lu Qingshan immediately turned into a stream of light and left.
After a while, Hope Elephant, who was rooted to the spot, looked at Lu Qingshan's retreating figure and muttered, "This is interesting. Our new Young Master is not simple."
The news of Lu Qingshan becoming the Young Master of the Sword Sect had spread throughout the Seven Domains of the Human Race. Naturally, the cultivators of the Sword Sect also knew about it.
Compared to the cultivators of other sects, the sword cultivators of the Sword Sect were more carefree.
Sword cultivators were obsessed with the sword. They were less obsessed with power and status.
However, it was impossible to say that there were no opinions and voices about Lu Qingshan becoming the Young Master of the Sword Sect.
However, if it were in other sects, most of the voices would be different because of dissatisfaction and dissatisfaction.
However, in the Sword Sect, these voices were mostly due to worry.
The sword cultivators of the Sword Sect had an extremely high sense of recognition and honor for the Sword Sect.
Now that Qingyun Sword Immortal had entrusted such a heavy responsibility to a Soul Formation cultivator, the youngest sword cultivator among all the official disciples of the Sword Sect, they could not help but worry.
Could Lu Qingshan really bear such a heavy responsibility? Could he really steer the ship of the Sword Sect in the future?
Lu Qingshan was a genius. No one could deny that.
However, potential wasn't enough for the Sword Sect's Junior Sect Master. What mattered was one's ability.
All of this needed time to prove.
Although everyone had different opinions, they all respected and acknowledged the sect master, Qingyun Sword Immortal, from the bottom of their hearts.
Naturally, they were willing to believe in his decision.
Therefore, although the sword cultivators of the Sword Sect had different opinions, on the surface, they either remained silent or expressed their support for Lu Qingshan's identity as the Young Master of the Sword Sect. No one objected.
This was the Sword Sect. Protecting the glory of the sect was voluntary and conscious.
They would never let outsiders laugh at their own affairs.
The sword cultivators of the Sword Sect were willing to give Lu Qingshan time to prove his ability. They wanted him to prove that he was indeed qualified to be the Young Master of the Sword Sect.
.....
"Lu Qingshan, you've become the Young Master of the Sword Sect?"
After returning to Green Peak, Lu Qingshan first checked on his two disciples, Lin Chuyi and Lin Shiwu, to see how much their swordsmanship had improved in the past two months. Then, he was asked by the Western Rat King.
The two disciples, who were practicing swordsmanship for Lu Qingshan, heard the little rat demon's question and subconsciously pricked up their ears.
"Yes." Lu Qingshan glanced at his two little disciples, and then nodded his head in an extremely calm manner.
Being glanced at by their master, the two disciples were shocked. They quickly put down their ears and returned to practicing swordsmanship.
"This is the Sword Sect!" The Western Rat King's eyes widened. He was extremely excited and jumped up and down.
"Wow, you're the Young Master of the Sword Sect. Doesn't that mean my status has risen as well?" The Western Rat King suddenly reacted.
The Sword Sect was one of the seven great sects of the human race. There were many capable people in the sect.
As a little rat demon, it was undoubtedly the lowest existence in the Sword Sect. It acted lowly and small everywhere. At most, it could only pretend to be great in front of Lu Qingshan's two disciples.
But now … it was different.
As the saying went, when a man achieves the Dao, even his chickens and dogs will follow.
Although it was still a rat, it was now the Young Master of the Sword Sect's Young Master's rat.
How could it be the same?
"Yesterday is history. Today is the beginning. From tomorrow onwards, no one will be able to do anything." The Western Rat King could not help but hum happily.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the proud Western Rat King and did not say anything.
Naturally, he knew what the Western Rat King was thinking.
However … in the place where he was going next, the identity of "Rat of the Sword Sect's Young Master" would not be useful. Instead, it would have negative effects.
Therefore, he would let the Western Rat King be proud for now. After all, his good days would not last long.
On the other side.
The outcome of the battle between the two disciples was finally decided.
Unsurprisingly, it was his sister who won the final victory.
The two of them blinked their big black eyes. They looked at Lu Qingshan nervously and expectantly.
Lu Qingshan looked over. There was an almost inaudible Sword Qi outside the pavilion.
The Sword Qi was not generated by their own Spiritual Power. Instead, it was generated by the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth brought about by the sword style.
"It's two Sword Embryos." Lu Qingshan nodded in satisfaction and said with a smile.
The two little girls were a little shy after receiving praise from their master, whom they regarded as a celestial being in their hearts.
"It's time to go," Lu Qingshan muttered to himself.
"Where to?" The sharp-eared Western Rat King heard Lu Qingshan's mutterings.
"Jade Gate Pass," he said.
Once the disciples of the Sword Sect succeeded in their cultivation, they would have to go to the extraterritorial battlefield. They would have to use real swords and spears to hone their abilities. This was the responsibility of the disciples of the Sword Sect. It was also the custom of the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect's Young Master had even more requirements.
This was because the proud sword cultivators of the Sword Sect would not be like the other sects. They would not target or mock the young Young Master verbally.
This was not the character of a sword cultivator.
However, it was extremely difficult to convince them wholeheartedly.
"The spring breeze does not cross the Jade Gate Pass," Lu Qingshan said softly. "Not to mention the Demons. The reason why the Jade Gate Pass is so unbreakable is because the sword cultivators of the Sword Sect have sacrificed a lot."
The Sword Sect had guarded the Jade Gate Pass for twenty thousand years. Over the years, countless sword cultivators of the Sword Sect had died in the extraterritorial battlefield. Only then did they conquer this area and build a hundred or so city passes.
Since he had accepted the responsibility of the Sword Sect's Young Master, there were some things he had to do.
Lu Qingshan planned to travel outside the Jade Gate Pass and all the areas controlled by the human race in the extraterritorial battlefield.
This included every city pass, every pass, every mountain range, every river, and even every inch of land.
This was the territory that the Sword Sect had fought for with their swords and blood.
