We are not masters of Xu Kaishan and Feng Wanli, if Xu Ruonan is not injured, we may have the strength to fight against Zhao Yu and them, but in the current situation, if we really fight hard, I am afraid that we will only fall into a heavy encirclement.

The two rode out for more than ten miles, came to a riverbank, and then dismounted.

It was April, and the water and grass were abundant by the river, so I let go of the horse's reins and let the horses graze at will.

Xu Ruonan said thirsty, I picked a lotus leaf, walked upstream, and gave her water.

We looked at each other and laughed.

Xu Ruonan said, Xiao Catch fast, I have to say, your martial arts are too weak.

I blushed and was a little embarrassed. When I was stealing the Holy Gate, I felt that although my martial arts were a little worse than a few senior brothers, I was also full of confidence when I walked the rivers and lakes.

Thinking of this, I made up my mind that even if it wasn't for myself, in order to protect Xu Ruonan, I had to step up my practice, and I couldn't let her look down on me.

I looked at her after the disguise, although she was a little old, but no matter her body or walking posture, she looked like an old woman.

Xu Ruonan saw that I didn't speak, thinking that what I said just now had stimulated me, and said, are you angry? I shook my head, not angry, I felt that I was not angry.

Xu Ruonan smiled faintly and said, In fact, you are not so bad, according to my observation, you have several powerful true qi in your body, but now you don't know how to use it, if you really want to find the right teacher, your future achievements may not be under me.

These words made me feel even more embarrassed, and said that Su is still there, Su is still there, he was lazy and slippery in the mountain gate, and now he can't even protect his beloved woman, what kind of man is it.

I asked, Ruonan, what level is your martial arts in the rivers and lakes?

Xu Ruonan pondered, pondered for a moment, and said slowly, the world's martial arts are broad and profound, whether it is the Righteous Law in the Nine Grades in the past, or the three realms of Tong, Knowledge, and Wen, the world's martial artists are divided into three levels.

Among them, the Sword God Feng Wanli, the Heavenly Sword Xu Kaishan, the Jiuhua Mountain Master Can, the Ronin Wang Heng, plus my master, can be regarded as a level, these are all masters of the Tongxiang Realm. The rest of the people, such as Wang Chong, Li Mingxiu, Xie Shiyin, Zhao Qiansun, Nangong Qianjue, and more than ten others, are all masters of the upper realm of Zhixuan, and the heads of the other ten major sects are another echelon in the rivers and lakes. These are the rankings of Xiaosheng's rivers and lakes and people's lists.

Of course, these rankings are not very reliable. Generally speaking, the higher the realm, the stronger the martial arts, but it is not absolute, for example, the number one killer in the world, Hongdou, is just a seven or eight-year-old girl, and her martial arts are only the best in the realm, but she can kill the master of the upper realm of Zhixuan. In addition, the Xiliang Sword Pavilion, Langya Pavilion, Longhu Mountain, Dakong Temple, and Western Regions Tantra are also said to be masters, especially the Xiliang Sword Pavilion, which is said to have twenty-one swords, all of which are masters of the upper realm. It's just that these people are either far away in Fanbang, or they are extremely mysterious and few people walk in the rivers and lakes, but their reputation is not very prominent.

I secretly thought in my heart, it is true, the rivers and lakes are so big, there are always some masters who do not want to compete for fame and fortune, and there are masters who do not want to hide in the world, Xiaosheng Jianghu also said that thirty years ago, the rivers and lakes were like carp crossing the river, and it was precisely because of the changes in the mountains and lakes that the luck of the rivers and lakes gradually thinned, which led to the decline of the rivers and lakes and the decline of martial arts.

Xu Ruonan said again, the realm is indeed a way to measure martial arts, but above the rivers and lakes, there is a person whose realm is not high, but it makes the five masters above the general image have a headache.

Who is it?

Xu Ruonan smiled and said, your master, Ximen blows the lamp.

I don't think so, the guy who blows the lamp at Ximen is okay to brag and talk nonsense, if you really fight, sometimes you can't even beat the first senior brother.

Xu Ruonan said, the world is light, if the West Gate blows the lamp and says the second, no one dares to call it the first. When your master was young, he once helped a master, and the master didn't want to owe favors, so he taught your master a set of light skills, my master said, the ability to fight, Ximen blowing the lamp is really not good, but the ability to pretend to be dead and escape is unparalleled in the world.

I believe this, over the years, we have only blown out the lantern for Simon to hold funerals five or six times, and one year when the enemy came to the door, he resorted to the Dafa of pretending to be dead and helped us steal the holy gate and successfully escaped. However, I don't dare to agree when he says that he is the first in light skills.

I asked again, what about Shaolin Wudang, and what is their status in Jianghu Mountain?

Xu Ruonan smiled, Shaolin and Wudang are the world's major factions, and they have no quarrel with the world, so they naturally do not participate in this kind of secular ranking. At that time, Feng Wanli's reputation was flourishing, claiming to be the first sword in the world, and he went to Wudang to worship the mountain, but he was beaten by the honorary teaching of an outer court of the Wudang faction, and since then, Feng Wanli no longer dares to claim to be the first sword in the world.

I wondered, isn't Feng Wanli known as a sword that shook Kyushu and won 800 battles, and there is such a down-and-out time?

Xu Ruonan said that this kind of thing, the Wudang faction will not talk nonsense because of its identity, and Feng Wanli will lose face if he loses, and he will not publicize it everywhere. I knew about this because my master was there at the time.

I said no wonder.

But......

Xu Ruonan paused slightly, and said solemnly, Tongxiang is not the highest realm of martial arts, among the rivers and lakes, outside the three realms, there are also realms such as the realm of heaven and man, the realm of sword immortals, the realm of Buddhism King Kong, and the realm of Daomen Changsheng, these people are all over the world, almost soaring, opening the gate of heaven with a sword, walking with a sword, creating the law of all things, and even being able to shatter the void and step into the underworld and the heavenly realm. It's just that these people have almost never appeared in the rivers and lakes for decades, and there is no way to verify whether they are true or not. This is why Xiaosheng Jianghu is out of the heavenly list, and the heavenly list is empty.

My blood boiled when I heard this, the sword opened the gate of heaven and the sword walked, what kind of realm is this? Not to mention cultivating so far, just thinking about it is also enjoyable.

I asked, who are on top of the Stygian Mountain now?

Xu Ruonan smiled, I don't know if it's true or not, so I have to ask Xu Kaishan. In the past thirty years, he is the only person who has seen a master outside the Three Realms, and his set of heavenly swords is rumored to be passed down by a master, which is why everyone in the rivers and lakes wants to get Xu Kaishan.

On that day in Tongshan Temple, Xu Kaishan vaguely revealed some stories of the Underworld, all the way south, although Xu Kaishan was secretive, but he never denied that he had seen the people of the Underworld, so it was confirmed by Xu Ruonan's words, but it was not false.

Thinking of this, I said to Xu Ruonan, Ruonan, I was too lazy in the past, from now on, I will definitely practice diligently, and one day in the future, I will step into the Sword Immortal Realm and take you to the four seas. Xu Ruonan smiled slightly, I hope so.

Suddenly there is humanity and travel the world, this is a good idea, why don't you take me with you.

I went along the way, but I saw the sword god Feng Wanli sitting not far away, with long hair and a shawl, and the long sword across his knees, looking at me with a playful face.

I chuckled in my heart, when did this guy come, could it be that he has been following us all the time? One Zhao Yu is enough for us to drink a pot, I can't imagine that I just escaped from their pursuit and was stopped on the road by Feng Wanli.

I snorted and said, senior, it's rude for you to eavesdrop on our conversation.

Feng Wanli was stunned when he heard this, and said with a dumb smile, little doll, do you know that it is also rude to chew the root of your tongue behind your back?

I suddenly remembered that Xu Ruonan said that Feng Wanli was humiliated in the Wudang Sect, and he must have heard it in his ears. I said, that's different.

What's the difference?

I said that this is a normal academic exchange, just stating the facts, not mixed with personal opinions, but then again, I still have a lot of respect for you.

I saw that Feng Wanli was not angry, and his heart settled, and then said, And this is your old thing, now your martial arts must be more sophisticated, and when you encounter the Wudang faction, it is estimated that that guy must be scared.

When Feng Wanli heard this, he sighed, I'm afraid it's still me who is scared.

I said in my heart that when this old guy doesn't fight, it's still quite cute, so I said, senior, you are too modest, how can we grow the ambition of others and destroy our own prestige.

Feng Wanli pointed at me, that's why I came to you.

Looking for me?

Feng Wanli nodded, if he finds you, he will have the opportunity to get the Immortal Mountain Peerless Learning, and only then can he be proud of the world.

I smiled, there must be a misunderstanding in this, although I have been with Xu Kaishan for a while, but where do I know what the Stygian Mountain is a master.

You don't know?

I raised my hand and swore that if I knew, I would let me strike five thunderbolts in the sky, and I would not die well.

Feng Wanli Dao, where does the true qi in your body come from, and in the Six Doors Prison, how do you use that trick Ten Thousand Swords, Rivers and Mountains?

I said in my heart that this guy is very well-informed, but that trick was unconsciously used by Xu Kaishan after I saw Xu Kaishan use it once, you ask me who I will ask.

However, it is said that this guy is also good and evil, when he is good, he builds bridges and paves roads, helps the old lady cross the road, kills people like mustard, and shows no mercy, I don't dare to provoke him, I said carefully, if I say it's a coincidence, do you believe it?

Feng Wanli didn't answer, and asked rhetorically, do you believe it?

I don't believe it. By the way, seniors, juniors suddenly remembered that there was still something to do, so we were in a hurry, so we left first.

I led the horse, helped Xu Ruonan onto the horse, and prepared to pass the test in the dark.

Only took a few steps, sealed the road, slowly.

I drooped my face and smiled wryly, you are a senior, and it will be boring for me to be embarrassed.

Feng Wanli got up slowly, and between heaven and earth, the true yuan fluctuated violently, and the clothes on his body and his head exuded no wind. I said in my heart that before these masters make a move, they always like to puff up their robes, which is really showy, but they are very pretending.

Feng Wanli raised his hand, the long sword was held in his hand, and a low roar sounded.

I suddenly felt the pressure, Xu Ruonan's expression was solemn, and he held the green silk in his sleeve in his hand, ready to shoot at any time.

I said it was fine just now, how can I say that I will turn my face.

Feng Wanli handed out a sword, enveloping me in true qi, and suddenly I felt like I was in the center of the storm.

Feng Wanli didn't seem to want to kill him, and the sword was handed over very slowly.

Slow does not mean weak.

The sword of the Sword God Sealing Ten Thousand Miles, no matter how slow it is, is not something that a small low hand like me can catch.

I hurriedly pulled out the kitchen knife and used the three styles of the golden snake, and changed five or six moves in a row, and the sword only changed a few angles slightly, and then sealed the various paradigms and back moves I had created.

As Lao Sun Tou said, the Tao, the law, the potential, the technique, the instrument, the Tao is respected, and all the moves are based on the first move to gain momentum through the difference in technique when facing the enemy with a similar realm. And all the potentials, techniques, and instruments, no matter how powerful, have become like chicken ribs when they are crushed by the realm. Therefore, when martial arts reach a certain level, they are mainly in the realm of cultivation.

I felt like I couldn't do anything.

The silent True Yuan in the Sea of Stars gave birth to a sense of induction, and was ready to move, and I said in my heart that it was strange, no matter how much I used my skills on weekdays, I couldn't mobilize the True Yuan, but every time I encountered a strong enemy, they made a move.

The sword move of Xu Kaishan that day flashed in his mind.

I used a sword as a sword and performed that move. On the same day, Xu Kaishan used this trick to scare Feng Wanli away.

Feng Wanli's sword arrived in front of him.

Boom.

It was as if my body had hit a wall of air, and I bounced out.

Feng Wanli frowned and said, you really won't?
