The fairy is fierce

Chapter 20: The Long Road Ahead

Walking with the sword, he soon arrived at Wuminggang on the bank of Qingdu River.

Two and a half-step Youhuang monks couldn't take four people away with their swords. They still had to walk back on their feet along the 700-mile mountainous road, which would take at least a day, so they stopped at Wuminggang halfway.

In the nameless town at the end of the iron chain bridge, Ye Xiu, who had just returned to block the road, was killed again. This time it was really the 'eighth level ancestor'. I am afraid that no one will come here to block the road in the future.

In the inn in the center of the town, Tang Jingxuan took the elixir and rested in the room on the second floor.

In the hall, four tables were put together, with a row of long swords placed on them, as well as sword cases, clothes, pants and other sundries.

Zuo Lingquan landed in front of the inn, raised his eyes and saw Cheng Jiujiang holding a pair of pants, looking at them carefully in front of the lights, and nodding thoughtfully:

"This seems to be a product from Yuzhilou. It is said to have the effect of protecting Yang and nourishing Yin..."

Zhao Wuxie sat across from him, carefully wiping oil on each sword with a look of disgust on his face:

"If you look at the pants worn by men, aren't you afraid of getting sick?"

Zuo Lingquan came in with his sword in his arms, put the two swords on the table, and said with a smile:

"Yeah, throw it away quickly."

Zhao Wuxie saw two new swords and quickly took them over to look at them.

When Cheng Jiujiang saw Zuo Lingquan coming back, he raised his hand and threw his pants aside, and said:

"I counted, plus the two I just got, there are three swords with high-grade spiritual weapons on the table. Among them, the red lady was taken by Brother Lingquan himself; one sword with medium-grade spiritual weapons was taken by Brother Zhao. There are swords, ten low-grade spiritual weapons, eight swords, a belt, a sword box, and a flying sword. The rest are all magic weapons, mostly high-grade, with no talismans and a few ordinary elixirs. , I’m afraid it’s worth tens of thousands of white jade baht, so fat.”

Zuo Lingquan glanced at it and saw that most of the things on the table were Zhang Yinfeng's. The red-haired old immortal's belongings were probably all placed in Linglong Pavilion. He took out Linglong Pavilion, poured his energy into it, and wanted to open it, but found that it couldn't be opened at all.

Seeing this, Zhao Wuxie shook his head: "There are restrictions in Linglong Pavilion. You need to find an expert to break them before you can use them. You can just keep the things and there is no need to divide them. I came here just for revenge. It is enough to take the sword home and pass it on." ”

Zuo Lingquan definitely didn't mean to be exclusive:

"Revenge is revenge, sharing the spoils is splitting the spoils, we are all fighting for our lives, how can we not want anything.

Cheng Jiujiang simply threw the black 'Mo Yuan' to Zuo Lingquan, and the 'Jin Zhou' with white cloud patterns to Zhao Wuxie:

"Dividing the spoils is based on who can use it. There are four of us. Miss Tang has the first prize, and Linglong Pavilion is given to Miss Tang; 'Mo Yuan' is a water sword. We can't sell it after we take it, so naturally it will be given to Brother Lingquan; Brother Zhao The five elements are close to gold, so this 'Golden Sun' is suitable; I use fists, so I can't use any of them. The remaining low-grade spiritual weapons and magic weapons are all mine. Isn't that considered greedy?"

This classification is very reasonable. Zhao Wuxie is a swordsman. He is satisfied with being able to hold a suitable sword, so he naturally has no objection.

However, all the remaining spiritual weapons and magic weapons combined, none of the high-grade spiritual weapons are valuable.

Zuo Lingquan thought for a while and threw his 'Moon-covering Double Swords' to Cheng Jiujiang:

"Now it's fair."

Cheng Jiujiang was not polite. He took the two swords, put them together with the messy objects, and began to observe them carefully.

Zuo Lingquan was also a sword lover. He took out the sword 'Mo Yuan' and looked at it carefully by the light.

The Mo Yuan Sword is pure black, and the hilt is made of black jade. Its function is that there will be no loss when infusing the true energy, and the speed is faster than the wooden handle of the iron sword, which in disguise speeds up the speed and power of martial arts.

The blade is forged from black gold and is bright black in color. Water essence from the Qingdu River is added when the sword is forged.

'Water Essence' is the foundation of the Five Elements and the source of rivers. The Youhuang monks refine the attributes of the Five Elements into their own destiny. The most common choice is the Essence of the Five Elements, and Water Essence is one of them.

The Qingdu River is a large river that flows into the sea. Although the water essence it breeds is not as good as the essence from the four seas, it is still extraordinary. Just one or two ounces placed in the lake can turn the lake into a small blessed place rich in water transportation, with endless flow. Never rest for eternity.

The Mo Yuan Sword is a spiritual weapon, and it certainly does not contain as much water essence as one or two taels, but it does exist after all; as long as it is in the scabbard, the sword will accumulate 'sword energy' under the action of the water essence, which is equivalent to accumulating Power; the longer it is stored, the more powerful the sword will be for the first time. If the time is long enough, it is not impossible to achieve 20% of the effect with 10% of the power.

Of course, in order to exert this effect, only monks with five elements who are close to water can hold the sword. If other five elements are used, the sword may be bifurcated and its power will be greatly reduced; and this effect is not suitable for frequent drawing of the sword. swordsman.

But what people seek in practice is immortality, and fighting with others only lasts for a few times. Generally speaking, it is still a rare and good sword.

Zuo Lingquan admired it from top to bottom for a long time, nodded slightly, put away his sword, and turned to look at Zhao Wuxie:

"Brother Zhao has finished his work, what are you going to do?"

Zhao Wuxie carefully polished the snow-white sword, as if admiring a peerless beauty, and responded:

"I have thought about it before. If I am not dead in revenge, I will go back and travel with my master, strive to become a sword cultivator, and then go to the Sword Emperor City in Central Continent and carve my name on the city wall."

When Zuo Lingquan heard this, he was moved in his heart. Zhao Wuxie was only thirty years old and had already reached the fourth level of the Spiritual Valley. In today's battle, his swordsmanship was not as good as him, but it was far superior to ordinary monks. His ability The person who teaches this kind of disciple is not an ordinary person.

Zuo Lingquan hesitated for a moment and asked curiously:

"The master is a swordsman?"

Zhao Wuxie shook his head: "No. My master is just a casual swordsman. His cultivation level is not very high. He likes to travel all over the country in his life. I have inquired about this information."

Zuo Lingquan didn't believe it, but he didn't get to the bottom of it. He just asked instead:

"What kind of practice is sword cultivation?"

Zhao Wuxie was a little surprised:

"You are so domineering in swordsmanship, but you still don't know what swordsmanship is?"

Cheng Jiujiang also understood Zuo Lingquan's background, shook his head and smiled:

"Brother Lingquan has been practicing swordsmanship in a small place for more than ten years. Apart from being handsome, rich, and good at swordsmanship, he doesn't know as much as me in other aspects."

Zuo Lingquan really didn't know much, so he naturally didn't refute this.

Zhao Wuxie also saw this after contacting him twice. He recalled it for a moment before explaining:

"The so-called sword cultivation is a variant of martial arts, but it is more extreme than martial arts. Martial arts cultivates both internal and external, and the purpose is to seek immortality; sword cultivation seeks to be 'invincible in the world', with combat power as the main focus and longevity as a supplement, which is equivalent to Replacement of priorities. As for how to become a swordsman, Master said that the key lies in two points, one is the 'sword heart' and the other is the 'natal sword'."

When Zhao Wuxie said this, he looked at Zuo Lingquan:

"Brother Zuo, does he know what Kenshin is?"

Zuo Lingquan thought for a while and said with a smile:

"In my opinion, it is estimated that Lao Tzu's sword is invincible in the world, but 'the action must be righteous, the pursuit must be righteous, and the action must be righteous.'"

Zhao Wuxie was slightly surprised and said with a smile:

"Everyone's sword heart is different. When I asked what the sword heart was, my master told me that it was 'to forge a sword for the way of heaven and kill all the demons in the world'. What I was thinking in my heart was 'I want to be a swordsman'; Zuo Brother’s style is much better than mine.”

Zuo Lingquan shook his head and sighed: "Everyone can say nice things, but keeping your heart and putting it into practice is the hardest part."

"That's right. If you can't keep your heart, the road will naturally be cut off. Master said that most sword cultivators in the world fail because of mental calamity, so cultivating the mind is more important than practicing swordsmanship."

"Oh... what about the second point?"

"The second key point of sword cultivation is to refine the sword into the 'Original Sword' after entering the Youhuang Realm. When monks in the Youhuang Realm refine the attributes of the Five Elements, they usually choose the source of the Five Elements such as 'Water Essence, Fire Marrow' and so on. Although there are high and low levels of things, these things will grow with the monks, and theoretically there is no upper limit...

...Refining the sword into a life object can increase the combat power to the extreme, but the disadvantage is that the grade of the sword determines the upper limit of future achievements, which is equivalent to exchanging the opportunity of immortality for the current combat power. "

When Zuo Lingquan heard this, he frowned:

"So extreme?"

Zhao Wuxie nodded: "Yes, strictly speaking, they are all a group of martial arts lunatics. Ninety-nine percent of the sword cultivators in the world are stuck in the Netherworld Realm because they cannot find a good sword. Sword cultivators want to seek immortality. Swords must be swords with self-generated sword spirits, because these swords can grow; but most of the swords with self-generated sword spirits are immortal weapons. There are only a few immortal swords in Yuyaozhou in total, and most of them are forged the day after tomorrow. You You can imagine how difficult it is.”

Zuo Lingquan nodded slightly and understood a little: "What will happen if we really can't find a good sword?"

"If the natal sword cannot keep up with the other five elements of natal swords, the five elements will be out of balance and the realm will be directly blocked. The only way is to spread the power and cultivate again."

Zuo Lingquan suddenly thought about it and said:

"It sounds like swordsmanship isn't particularly good."

Zhao Wuxie waved his hand:

"How much investment there is, there will be great rewards. Although sword cultivation is too extreme, among all the cultivation paths, sword cultivation is unique in its combat power. With the natal sword in Youhuang Realm, a small realm is used to calculate combat power. . Moreover, sword cultivators don't seek immortality, so they don't care about their lives. Ordinary cultivators would hide away when they encounter him. If he could understand the 'Sword One' again, he would be invincible and kill whoever he saw without any reason. "

This was the first time Zuo Lingquan had heard of ‘Jian Yi’, and he said curiously:

"What is Jianyi?"

"One sword can break all kinds of magic, so it is called 'Sword One'. Most of the people who know it are heavenly immortals who are above the Jade level. With one sword, the mountains and rivers will change color. We are far apart, so don't think about it..."

The three of them sat in the inn lobby and chatted for a long time without realizing it.

When Zhao Wuxie finished speaking, he knew that Zuo Lingquan had to rush back to Shuanlong Port, so he didn't talk any more and turned to look at the Qingdu River outside:

"No more chatting. I sneaked out without telling Master this time. The big revenge has been avenged. I have no worries anymore and I have to go back."

Zuo Lingquan was still thinking about sword cultivation when he heard this and said unexpectedly:

"Are you leaving in such a hurry?"

Zhao Wuxie smiled: "That's how cultivation is, you are always on the road, and you have to leave sooner or later."

Cheng Jiujiang stood up and said:

"At least we got to know each other, how can we contact you in the future?"

"When you hear the name 'Southern Wilderness Zhao Wuxie' one day outside, you will naturally be able to find me; if you can't make a name for yourself, there is no point in looking for me."

Zhao Wuxie walked out of the inn, glanced at the north, walked towards the Iron Chain Bridge, waved his hand and said:

"See you again if we are destined."

"Goodbye."

Zuo Lingquan stood at the door of the inn, watching Zhao Wuxie go away, and sighed softly.

As the first friend he had met since leaving the mountain, Zuo Lingquan definitely wanted to keep him.

But what Zhao Wuxie said is right. The road to spiritual practice is too long, and you have to walk it. If you stay for a short time, there will be no joy like seeing each other and smiling at each other again in the future...
