Real game world: I am gifted and I suppress all monsters

Before he could finish his words, the black ball smashed to the ground, and the explosion belched out thick smoke of various colors, which disturbed his vision and immediately emitted a highly toxic substance.

Xuanyuan Changqing and Zhang Lingjun both had strong internal strength. They immediately sent out four palms at the same time. Strong winds blew out from their palms, and the poisonous fog was blown away while everyone held their breath.

Seeing Ximen Yaoren disappear, Cui Fengting sighed, turned around and bowed to the Tianci people, saying: "Thank you all for coming to help."

Xuanyuan Changqing also bowed and said, "Second Master, you are too kind. As a fellow disciple of the righteous path, this is what we should do. I wonder what the situation is with the demon mentioned in your letter?"

Cui Fengting did not answer, but glanced in the direction of Beiting Mountain. "The dragon head is waiting at the fish viewing pavilion. Let's go back and talk about it!"

Under the guidance of the Cui family, Tianci and his group entered the Xuanshui city gate and walked towards the Si Lake on the other side of Beiting Mountain.

The Cui family was the most powerful clan in the area around Lake Si for thousands of years, so they naturally became the masters of Lake Si and lived in the Fish Viewing Pavilion, one of the four famous pavilions in Zhongzhou, for generations.

This Fish-Watching Pavilion is built on the top of Beiting Mountain. Legend has it that it has a history of nearly a thousand years. Standing on the Zhenlong Terrace in the pavilion, one can overlook the entire lake and the beautiful scenery of mountains and rivers.

When they reached a staircase that seemed to have no top, Chen Qingzhou asked, "Senior Brother Xuanyuan, how high is this fish-watching pavilion?"

Cui Fengting explained: "Don't worry, little brother. After walking up the 9,999 stone steps, you will reach the Fish Viewing Pavilion."

"Walk up?" Chen Qingzhou was shocked. "Can't you fly?"

"Qingzhou, don't be rude."

Xuanyuan Changqing rebuked: "This is the rule of the Cui family. Guests should follow the host's wishes and not act rashly."

Cui Fengting smiled and said, "Yes, there are indeed some rules for visiting the Fish Viewing Pavilion. Guests who come for the first time must climb the stairs themselves. Firstly, this is to show respect, and secondly, it is also to hope that the distinguished guests will slow down and appreciate the beautiful scenery."

These thousands of stone steps are built against the mountain, each step is half a meter high and one meter wide. There are many exotic flowers and plants on the mountain roads, and occasionally some small animals peek out and carefully look at the guests from afar.

Qianyu was a girl by nature. Seeing the kittens, puppies and rabbits, she was extremely happy. She chased them left and right, and immediately made the stairs crowded.

Cui Xuechu saw that she liked small animals very much, and smiled and said: "Sister Qianyu is really a kindred spirit. I like cats the most. I also have one at home. The two eyes are different colors. I will show it to you later!"

When Qianyu heard that there was such a cat in the world, she became very curious. She dropped the little animal in her hand and urged everyone to climb the mountain quickly to see Cui Xuechu's cat.

They were all martial artists, and soon they climbed more than 6,000 stone steps and reached the halfway point of the mountain.

Chen Qingzhou slowed down his pace and looked down the mountain. He found a blue courtyard on the west foot of the mountain. There were many of them. He couldn't help but ask, "Second Master, what are those?"

Cui Fengting took a look and said, "That is the resting place for tens of thousands of Cui family's elite soldiers."

Chen Qingzhou was shocked. Although Tianci was also one of the five major sects, it only had a thousand disciples at most. He couldn't understand why the Xuanshui Sect was so powerful.

Chen Qingzhou wanted to know more, "Second Master, I have nothing else to do. Please introduce this Fish Viewing Pavilion to everyone!"

Cui Fengting looked around at the Tianci people. Most of them were visiting Lake Si for the first time. Curiosity was evident in their eyes, so he nodded to his nephew.

Cui Xiaokun understood immediately, "The Fish Viewing Pavilion is one of the four famous pavilions in Zhongzhou. The fish in the Si Lake are viewed here. The Si Lake is one of the best lakes in Zhongzhou, nourishing millions of people around it. There is a dragon god guarding the lake. We are walking up to show respect to the dragon god."

Chen Qingzhou guessed that the dragon god he was talking about should be the largest Taimen salmon, but this is someone else's territory, so if he said it was a dragon, then it is a dragon!

Cui Xiaokun continued, "This Fish Viewing Pavilion was built more than 700 years ago. It took a full sixty years just to select the site, dig, transport materials and build it. Thousands of our ancestors braved hardships and devoted their efforts to create this wonder today."

As they were talking, they had already climbed more than 9,000 stone steps. They could vaguely see some thin clouds and mist all around, which, against the backdrop of the flowers and plants on the mountain, made them feel as if they were in a fairyland.

After walking for a while, the view gradually widened. Chen Qingzhou raised his head and looked forward. A red stone and wood building came into view. It was the famous Fish-Watching Pavilion.

Walking to the Fish-Watching Pavilion, there is a stone tablet on the left side of the first-floor gate with a few lines of words vaguely engraved on it.

Cui Fengting introduced: "This is a four-line poem written by a contemporary swordsman who visited this place and was inspired to praise the beauty of this lake."

"Oh?" Everyone became curious when they heard this. They wondered who the person who left the poem was. You know, without extremely high literary talent and status, it would be impossible for the Cui family to leave the poem here.

Chen Qingzhou looked up and saw a seven-character quatrain.

Between the sparkling clouds and water,

The strange and mysterious scene is very touching.

I wish to stay in the human world for three hundred years.

Change it to a goose on Lake Si.

After reading it, everyone thought of the beautiful scenery they had just passed and nodded in approval. This poem has a great artistic conception. It starts with praise and then goes on to praise the beauty of the lake with the aspiration of transforming oneself into a wild goose, which makes people feel the same way.

Chen Qingzhou looked down the stone tablet and found three words at the end: Xia Jiangnan.

"Who is Xia Jiangnan?"

His background is set as just an ordinary boy from Chenjia Village, who knows little about the affairs of the world.

Cui Fengting introduced: "Xia Jiangnan is nicknamed the Judge of Seven Tribulations. He is an upright person who likes to fight for justice. He is the young master of Ju Mang Xuan, one of the five major Xuan sects. He is also known as the Seven Xuan Sword Masters together with Elder Xuanyuan!"

Chen Qingzhou had already seen the “Seven Profound Sword Masters” in the system’s introduction to Xuanyuan Changqing, and later realized that they referred to seven sword masters of the human race, who were superb in swordsmanship and revered by the people.

Xuanyuan Changqing nodded slightly and said nothing. In fact, he and Xia Jiangnan were only spiritual friends and had never met each other.

Cui Fengting said: "This Judge Xia is young, but his martial arts attainments are extremely profound. You see, this poem was carved by him using a willow branch. The Xia family has produced such a talented person. It is really a blessing from our ancestors!"

Everyone was terrified. When it came to carving words on the stone tablet with a sharp weapon, everyone present could do it. Even using fingers would not be a problem for masters like Xuanyuan Changqing and Zhang Lingjun. But to use the willow in one's hand and to overcome hardness with softness, that really required some real skills with the fingers.

The Fish-Watching Pavilion is a conical nine-story tower, about seventy meters high, with the top floor measuring five meters square. It is made entirely of mahogany and has stood the test of thousands of years. It has all the buildings, houses, and furniture inside, and looks antique and elegant. The Cui family’s hundreds of people eat, wear, and use their daily necessities here, and they often receive visitors from all sides. It is truly one of the four famous pavilions in Zhongzhou.

Cui Fengting saw everyone looking up at him with amazement on their faces, and he couldn't help but feel proud. "Everyone, follow me to see the dragon head, please!"

After saying that, Cui Xiaokun spread out his palms to give instructions, and everyone followed closely.
