"Building a foundation within thirteen days, and carrying a heavenly plate?"
Kunwu, by the Jiutou River.
It is still the rushing river, it is still the long river, he is still wearing Taoist robes and has a head full of white hair.
Zhenren Hengxu walked slowly along the river bank, but he was going back to Kunwu.
The disciple following him was his third disciple in his early years, named Wu Duan, who is now also a cultivator in the late Nascent Soul stage.
Wu Duan heard the doubts of Master Hengxu and nodded, "It's the new female disciple from Yashan who was rumored to have been accepted some time ago, named Jianchou. Some people say that she may not have established her foundation yet, and she has a natural Doupan of ten feet, but no one knows how much it is now, but someone has seen it with their own eyes, and it is a Tianpan."
"Heavenly Plate..."
Anyone else saw it with their own eyes
Zhenren Hengxu smiled and said, "Someone, who are you referring to?"
Wu Duan was startled: "Master, what you mean is..."
"It's meaningless, just a group of demons dancing wildly."
He was really curious about what the Candle-cutting Sect had gotten that made them suddenly so rampant.
Not only did he go to Yashan and fight with Yashan disciples, but now he dares to spread such rumors. What is his purpose
Kunwu had just recently produced a genius disciple who built his foundation in ten days and was nominated for the second level of the Nine-Layered Heaven Monument on the thirteenth day. Then, someone spread the rumor that Yashan had produced a female disciple who built her foundation in the thirteenth day and was in possession of a Heavenly Plate...
His heart is despicable.
but…
None of it has much to do with him.
Zhenren Hengxu smiled slightly and continued to go up the mountain path, heading back to Kunwu.
At the same place, Wu Duan pondered over this riddle for a long time.
He did not follow Zhenren Hengxu's footsteps, but just looked towards the wide river.
The setting sun spreads across the water, a blood-red color.
Xie Buchen was dressed in a green robe, sitting cross-legged in the turbulent river. There was no light or luster around him, just like an ordinary person.
Wu Duan didn't know whether the female cultivator at Yashan had built her foundation on the thirteenth day, but he was very clear that the person in front of him had built her foundation on the tenth day, which was definitely true.
How long have you been getting started
It was so brilliant that it even overshadowed the rest of the Kunwu cultivators.
In the past, Kunwu Zhao Zhuo was known; in the past, Kunwu Yuehe was known; in the past, Kunwu Wuduan was known…
But now, no one cares about these people anymore. In everyone's eyes and mouth, there is only Kunwu Xie Buchen!
genius
At that moment, an indescribable feeling of uneasiness made Wu Duan's heart surge.
He took a few steps forward, stepping on the surging river water, and moved forward step by step.
Xie Buchen slowly raised his eyelids.
The first thing that caught his eye was the rushing Jiutou River. The river was wide, and he was in the middle of the river. What he saw was even more majestic and magnificent than when he was at the riverside.
After looking for a while, he turned his head to look at Wu Duan who had already walked to the center of the river.
Without standing up, he just opened his mouth and said to Xie Buchen, "Brother Wu."
His expression was too indifferent, his eyes were ruthless, and he seemed heartless.
As for Xie Buchen's origin, the master never told others, so all of them knew nothing about this new disciple. They didn't know where he came from, what his past experiences were, and what his identity was...
Too mysterious.
It's too dazzling.
A person who is not envied is a mediocre person, but Xie Buchen is a genius among geniuses. Even in Kunwu, which is full of talented people, he can stand out from the crowd.
"Junior brother, you have been cultivating in the center of the river for a long time. It seems that you haven't been back to Kunwu for a long time." Wu Duan casually started a conversation and looked at him with a smile. "The Central Region has been very lively recently. Several major events have occurred. I wonder if Junior brother has heard about them?"
If you don’t go back to Kunwu for a long time, you naturally won’t know anything.
Xie Buchen was not interested in the so-called news.
He said calmly, "No."
Wu Duan sneered in his heart and said, "I heard that there is a new female cultivator in Yashan who built her foundation within thirteen days, and all the Kun lines are lit up, which is a rare Tianpan in the world! Speaking of which, Junior Brother, you built your foundation in ten days, although it is known by thousands of people in the Central Region, I, as your fellow senior brother, have never seen your Doupan with my own eyes. I wonder... Junior Brother, such a genius, is also a Tianpan?"
A genius...
That’s true.
As for whether it is a heavenly plate...
Xie Buchen lowered his head, turned his gaze towards the rushing river, and asked, "Brother, do you want to see it?"
Such a gentle tone, yet it carried a kind of coldness mixed with ice chips, which made people extremely uncomfortable.
Wu Duan felt insulted for no reason.
He knew that what the master cared about most now was this talented disciple. It was a pity... apart from the master, few people in Kunwu liked him!
Now that he has spoken today, Wu Duan is not afraid of him.
"Not only do I want to see Junior Brother's fighting skills, I also want to see Junior Brother's abilities."
That means you're ready to fight.
Xie Buchen's hands were originally resting lightly on his knees, slightly curled up, and now he suddenly moved slightly, and the soft folds suddenly became powerful. He supported his knees with his five fingers and finally stood up from the middle of the river.
He didn't even look at Wu Duan, who was tense and looked fearful.
Xie Buchen leaned over and put his hand into the river water. What was originally just a dark torrent suddenly became noisy.
Wu Duan didn't know what he was doing, but he just pointed his hand and a long bone sword floated high behind him.
The flowing river water brushed past the five fingers of Xie Buchen's left hand.
The slender jade-like fingers and transparent and round nails are always decent and graceful.
He slowly stood up and pulled back his hand...
The water in the river seemed to be still at this moment. Wu Duan suddenly felt a sense of alarm and his hair stood on end!
The entire river surface was still for a moment, and then suddenly waves rose!
Xie Buchen withdrew his hand from the river, and the rolling river water from the center of the river also rose up with it, as if a waterfall had been pulled up in the center of the river!
Flow!
Xie Buchen put his five fingers together, as if grasping the river current, raising it higher and higher!
The sound of water splashing suddenly rang in my ears.
He finally pulled that stream of river out from the center of the river. The water on both sides of the river suddenly converged towards the empty space in the middle the moment that stream of river left!
Bang!
Water splashed and wet the corner of Xie Buchen's clothes.
He put his right hand behind his back and shook his left hand lightly. The water in his hand actually shook off the rain like a sword, splashing water everywhere. Under the setting sun, the water looked crystal clear like blood.
When the splashes of water dissipated, what Xie Buchen was holding in his hand was a sword made of river water, with faint ripples on it, and it seemed to be flowing!
Use the river flow as a sword!
Wu Duan only felt the coldness under his feet, even colder than the day he saw Xie Buchen flying in the air!
Xie Buchen stood holding a sword, with the river flowing under his feet, and said calmly: "I heard that Senior Brother is now in the late Nascent Soul stage, and his cultivation is very high. I am still at a low level, so I would like to ask Senior Brother for guidance."
***
"Master, what you mean is that someone is deliberately trying to trick us at Yashan?"
The sun has set in the west.
It was completely dark.
Jianchou and the others had already said goodbye and left. Fudao Shanren pulled his feet out of Guihe Well, stood on the edge and looked back at the entire Yashan, saying, "Your Senior Sister Jianchou's foundation-building on the 13th has already been explained, and no one is allowed to tell anyone. Yashan's group of idiots usually laugh and joke around, and seem unreliable, but when it comes to this, I still trust you."
After all, it is Yashan.
only…
What is a fool
Chen Jiu, who came to report the news, supported his knees and followed Fu Daoshanren: "So the news couldn't have been spread from Yashan?"
“The possibility is extremely low.”
Fudao Shanren placed his hands on the thin bamboo pole.
"On the day when Jianchou came out of retreat after building his foundation, people from the Jianzhu Sect happened to come. Those bad-hearted people might have some plans. Think about it, Kunwu just had Xie Buchen, and then we had Senior Sister Jianchou. If I were old monster Hengxu, I would have to think about it right now. Do you have any intentions in Yashan?"
As he spoke, he pretended to wipe his chin as if he had a very long beard.
Chen Jiu was speechless. His analysis made sense, but how much did you hate Master Hengxu to imitate this action so ugly!
"Master, how about we go and give the Candle-cutter Sect a try?"
"Knocking?" Fudao Shanren showed a look of contempt. "If they dare to do it, they must have some basis, but we just don't know it. Just wait and see, I'll go find that little bastard Zheng Yao to investigate."
Having said that, he left Guihe Well directly, lit the broken bamboo pole, and disappeared in a short while.
Zheng Yao was in the Lanyue Palace with a pile of bamboo slips spread out in front of him, and his head was aching.
"No, no, no, there are so many things to deal with. I might as well pack up and run away one day... Why is being a sect leader so troublesome?"
There are many martial arts fanatics in Yashan. He would rather stay in seclusion all day than stay here to deal with things. It is too difficult, too difficult!
well…
A long sigh.
When Fu Dao Shanren came in and heard this voice, he wanted to slap him.
"Sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh for nothing! I, the mountain man, don't even sigh, why are you sighing?"
Zheng Yao was suddenly scolded like this, and he was still a little dazed when he looked up. He simply pushed the pile of things in front of him and walked over directly: "I sigh for mine, and you sigh for yours, uncle, we have nothing to do with each other. Hey, that's not right, you didn't sigh at all?"
He suddenly opened his eyes wide and looked at Fudaoshanren.
"Is the senior sister awake?"
"She's awake." Fudao Shanren rolled his eyes and laughed, "She's so heartless. I was worried about her for so long, but as soon as she woke up, she ran away with that evil guy from Lao Er! When she heard that she could go to the armory to choose magic weapons, she smiled so hard that her teeth couldn't see her eyes. You didn't see it."
"… "
Isn't this normal
Zheng Yao thought, didn’t I also jump three feet high when I went to the armory for the first time
Just smile
Alas, Senior Sister Jianchou is too reserved!
Zheng Yao asked: "But... Is it appropriate for Senior Sister Jianchou to go to the armory at this time?"
"What's wrong?"
Fudaoshanren raised his eyes.
Zheng Yao had a strange expression on his face: "Senior Sister Jianchou's soul is missing. In the Yashan arsenal, all the famous weapons are extraordinary, especially the swords... I'm afraid... there won't be many swords that will choose her."
"Eh..."
After hearing this, Fudao Shanren suddenly slapped his forehead with a dull expression: "Yes! It seems that girl still wants a sword! It's over..."
This time it's over.
Which sword in the armory would be so blind as to fall for the shining and bright Senior Sister Yashan
This is a very serious issue!
Zheng Yao could only wipe his cold sweat. He came close to Fu Dao Shan Ren and asked, "As for the armory, at worst, the eldest sister will return empty-handed, but what should we do about the lack of soul?"
"I've already thought about it, mountain man."
Fudaoshanren withdrew his thoughts from the armory and felt much more relaxed when he spoke.
"Jianchou has experienced life and death before, and she is not as fragile as we thought. I asked her what she would do if she saw her ex-husband. Guess what she said? She was just an ordinary person at that time, and she said, just kill him. Hehe, the disciple I accepted is not such a weak-minded person. So, I will tell her about this matter when she comes back."
It seems to make some sense.
Zheng Yao actually thought so too. If he continued to practice without thinking, if a calamity came one day, he would not even know how he died.
If Jianchou knew my current situation, he would be able to choose my future path.
Should I continue to practice? What level should I reach? Should I control my speed
It's not up to them to decide.
Zheng Yao nodded, expressing his agreement with Fu Dao Shan Ren, but...
An idea suddenly flashed in his mind: "Uncle Master, what did you just say? Ex-husband?"
"Didn't I tell you that?" As if he hadn't said that, Fu Dao Shan Ren slapped his forehead and said, "Her husband was a ruthless man. He killed her in order to seek immortality. That's why Jian Chou was saved by me, a Shan Ren."
"Killing his wife to prove his truth?" Zheng Yao was horrified. "Then her husband... oh no, ex-husband, if he came here to seek the truth, he should be in the Nineteenth Continent. I'm curious, who is her ex-husband? Does he have a name?"
"… "
Fudaoshanren was stunned by the question, blinked, and then shook his head.
"If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten about it... I never asked..."
"… "
Zheng Yao immediately looked down upon him.
Fu Dao Shanren waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "When that girl comes back with the magic weapon, we'll talk and ask her all at once. If it's appropriate, we'll help her catch that damn ex-husband and kill him for her to see!"
Do you know at this time that a master has to support his apprentice
Zheng Yao shook his head and said nothing. What were you doing so early in the morning
Forget it, let’s just wait.
Judging from the time, it’s almost time to open the armory.
I wonder what kind of magic weapon Senior Sister Jianchou, who ran away at the slightest disagreement, will bring back
Outside Yashan, tributaries of the Jiutou River flow in the gradually darkening night.
Jianchou followed Qu Zhengfeng and the others out of Yashan, and went down along the river, flying forward in a flying vehicle. It took them about an hour.
The light of magical instruments is all around, illuminating the darkness.
Jianchou looked up and saw only vast mountains with dark outlines in the night. After crossing a high mountain, he finally saw a huge basin in front of him.
Qu Zhengfeng was standing not far from Jianchou, holding the Haiguang Sword. When he saw that they had reached the place, he said, "This is where the armory is. Please land and wait for a moment."
There is a platform on the hillside of this high mountain, which seems to be specially designed for people to rest.
After hearing this, Jianchou controlled the inner and outer mirrors that had been stained with blood to fall downwards.
Standing on this platform, you can overlook the entire plain below.
She couldn't help but wonder: Armory, Armory, where is the Armory? Is it like the wonderful Sutra Library on Yashan Mountain
Qu Zhengfeng is a disciple with a longer seniority in Yashan. His cultivation has reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage. He is not far behind anyone in the entire Nineteen Continents. This time, he brought the newly-established disciples and some Jindan-stage disciples who had lost their magic weapons to the armory to select magic weapons.
Seeing everyone falling, Qu Zhengfeng did not fall, but stepped on the Hai Guang Sword and hovered in the air.
Many people turned to look at him.
Qu Zhengfeng just stared at the void in the pitch-black night. In the huge basin, the forest was dense and the birds had returned to their nests long ago. It was completely quiet with only the occasional sound of small animals passing through the trees.
He stretched out his hand and the Sea Light Sword flew into his palm.
Flying into the air, Qu Zhengfeng stood outside the high mountain platform, holding a sword, at the edge of the basin.
From behind, Jianchou could only see his tall back. The edges of his dark grey robe were embroidered with delicate patterns that seemed to flash with faint light.
The sword was raised.
Qu Zhengfeng stared intently at the basin below. The three-meter-high bowl under his feet suddenly spun open. A ray of light lit up from between his eyebrows, followed by a strong sound of wind. Countless spiritual energy wandering between heaven and earth seemed to sense the attraction of something at that moment and rushed towards Qu Zhengfeng frantically!
Jianchou opened his eyes wide and felt that this scene was vaguely familiar.
The spiritual energy summoned.
All of them were concentrated on that dark blue sea sword!
Every time a bit of spiritual energy came, the light on the Sea Light Sword would grow brighter.
The originally dark blue color finally became clear after the accumulation of countless spiritual energy, like the clear blue sky after the rain!
What comes with it is the tremendous pressure generated by the accumulation of spiritual energy!
However, Qu Zhengfeng did not let this pressure last long.
He stood in the air, holding only his sword—
One cut!
The azure sword light finally burst out, rushing towards the huge basin in front like a bay of moonlight!
The silent night is illuminated by this brilliant sword light!
There was a dense forest in the basin, the shadows of the surrounding mountains, and even the stream on the edge of the basin... Everything seemed to be exposed under the blazing sword light!
Jianchou tried his best to open his eyes wide, but he was unable to see the figure of Qu Zhengfeng hidden behind the sword light!
"boom!"
The sword light fell!
The basin surrounded by mountains was split in the middle by the sword light and retreated to both sides, causing an earth-shaking movement!
The Yashan disciples standing on the high mountain platform were all looking at the scene in front of them in shock.
The ground opened up and retreated to both sides. The sword light had not yet dissipated, but huge stone pillars slowly rose from the cracks in the ground!
The two closest ones are just on both sides of the platform, as high as the mountains!
Qu Zhengfeng had seen this scene many times.
He looked back, holding the Sea Light Sword in his hand. The faces, some familiar and some unfamiliar, all had expressions of shock that were difficult to conceal. Even the Jindan stage disciples who were not here for the first time still had eyes full of admiration.
Jianchou, who was standing at the front, stared at the gradually fading sword light with a bright gaze.
A pair of black and clear eyes, but there seemed to be a small fire light in the bottom of the eyes.
I wonder if it was the reflection of the sword in her eyes
Qu Zhengfeng seemed to have seen that kind of expression in other people's eyes, and it was somewhat similar to Chen Ju's.
That is a look of yearning, tenacity, bellicosity, and competitiveness...
It was just hidden so deeply that perhaps even she didn't notice it.
His figure slowly fell down, and Qu Zhengfeng landed right next to Jianchou, also looking at the basin that was undergoing tremendous changes.
Countless rocks were pushed away, and a platform slowly rose from the ground. Countless stone pillars stood tall around it, shoulder to shoulder with the mountains, surrounding the platform.
"Any cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage has the power to open the arsenal. With one strike of the sword, all things open up."
Jianchou listened and suddenly came back to his senses from the shocking scene before his eyes. He turned his head to look at Qu Zhengfeng: "Junior Brother Qu?"
What does this mean
Qu Zhengfeng also slowly turned around to look at her, but found that the faint light in her eyes had disappeared. At this moment, Jianchou was standing in front of him with a calm face, a little bit of doubt and curiosity, and then it softened suddenly.
He curled his lips and said, "What I mean is, if Senior Sister Jianchou reaches the Nascent Soul stage one day, she can also come to the armory with a sword to satisfy her craving."
Want to have some fun at the armory with a sword
After hearing this, Jianchou was slightly stunned, but then he couldn't help laughing.
She looked back at the basin which was beginning to calm down, thinking back to the shocking scene just now, and knew that she still had a long way to go.
only…
If there comes a day like that, standing here, splitting the armory with one sword for the newly-founded disciples of Yashan, wouldn't it be magnificent
