[001] The undercurrent is surging
Time flies, time flies.
It has been a full year since the battle of Kunwu Mountain, and it has been a full year and eight months since Ye Qingxuan and the others went to the "Martial Arts Holy Land".
The Shenwu Continent has experienced spring, summer, autumn and winter as always, and every year it is as usual when flowers fall and bloom, and plants and trees wither.
Ye Qingxuan and his entourage, who were originally expected to return in a year and a half, had no news.
All the martial arts people who set their eyes on the "military envoy" this time were pessimistic, and they couldn't imagine that the recognized generation of geniuses, including the young owner of the "One Sword Villa", would also end up with no return.
Except for a few sighs, no one took this trip to the "Martial Arts Holy Land" as a thing anymore.
After all, the purpose of this group of young people is not to return successfully, but to go along with the ......
What should be expected from a few young people?
What's more, in the current Shenwu Continent, in the entire Chinese martial arts, a more eye-catching thing is going on, and in the eyes of everyone, this is a really big deal......
As a result, except for the families of those "military envoys", no one will remember this group of young masters who were also elites in the martial arts back then.
There are inevitably many rights and wrongs.
There are also many stories happening on the rivers and lakes of the Shenwu Continent.
However, this year, the biggest thing that has happened on the rivers and lakes is nothing more than the martial arts event "Zhaowu Kyushu" martial arts conference held around the imperial court.
Tens of thousands of black and white sects, no matter how big or small, almost all participated in this martial arts event.
The martial arts competitions scattered all over the country have entered the final stage. The top sects in each region are beginning to face the battle for a place in the final finals of Lodo.
The "Zhaowu Kyushu" martial arts conference attracted the attention of people all over the world. It has become the only topic of conversation after people's tea and dinner. In the face of such a big event, almost all the undercurrents on the rivers and lakes have been covered.
Under the rivers and lakes, undercurrents are surging.
The rise of Motianling has not been strongly stopped, but it seems that in order not to anger the imperial court, in the past two years, Motianling has focused all his attention on the conquest of the land of Lingnan Baiyue. In a short period of time, not only did the land of Baiyue belong to it, but even the southerner part of Nanyue was also occupied by it. Captured the king of Anyang, the lord of the Ouluo country, and was named the Duke of Anle by the king of Dawei Tiande, and officially established the country as "Yue", and the capital of the country was Jiaozhi, and it was officially called the lonely widow. As the base of King Dawei Tiande, Motianling has also become the forefront of the defense and invasion of the Huangfu Dynasty.
In the martial arts, not only did Motianling take the opportunity to develop and grow, and the three major cults consolidated their power, but at the same time, many underworld sects also took advantage of the imperial court's inability to encircle and suppress, and Baidao paid attention to the competition. And at this time, the original sphere of influence was greatly expanded.
The white clouds cover the sky for a long time,
The river was surging and angry.
The river under the cliff. Like an angry dragon with teeth and claws, undulating and tumbling, it brought up turbulent waves and rushed towards the east endlessly.
This section of the river is tightly sandwiched by the cliffs that suddenly narrow on both sides, and the many reefs at the bottom of the river are blocked, and the torrents that are unwilling to give in rise and struggle, forming a rapid whirlpool that chooses people to eat, and is dangerous.
Here are the three unique mountains, located in Zhongzhou, Jingzhou, Yangzhou, the junction of the three states, stretching 800 miles from east to west, 600 miles wide from north to south, peaks and peaks, green and blue.
On the high cliff, one in front of two behind, three men who described the majestic shore stood proudly on the cliff.
At present, a man in fancy clothes, with a majestic figure, a majestic face, a white beard, a black robe fluttering in the wind, and the sound of hunting and hunting, it is clear that he is a leader at a glance, while the other two are also extraordinary, but judging from their respectful attitude, they are undoubtedly the subordinates of the current old man.
One of them is strong and tall, with a strange-shaped two-handed axe behind his back, and the pair of eyes under the thick eyebrows are like leopards, and his standing posture is very ordinary, but there is an indescribable majesty, and anyone who knows at a glance that even if thousands of troops and horses are surging to kill, they will not want to push him back half a step.
The other was a tall and thin man, with a sword tip like a hook, not a hook or a sword, and a hook-like sword at his waist.
The appearance is very gentle, the appearance is delicate, but the temples are bulging, the eyes are particularly bright, and there is a murderous aura that makes people tremble and palpitate.
As long as ordinary people meet the eyes of the tall and thin middle-aged man, they will involuntarily pound their hearts, and their palms will also break out in a lot of cold sweat.
The old Chinese man, who was the leader, looked only thirty years old if it weren't for his snow-white beard, and his figure was extremely majestic, and his unkempt hair exploded like a lion's mane, hanging down on his shoulders, which were much wider than ordinary people.
The appearance is rough, the bridge of the nose is high and upright, the eyes are shining, like a lightning flash, it seems to hide the ruthlessness that may erupt at any time, and it will be unforgettable at a glance.
A huge unsheathed knife, exuding the same domineering aura, stuck in the rock at the old man's feet. The frightening blade was wider than a human face, just above the ground, and it reached the chest and abdomen of a person, and the blade was pitch black, the back of the knife was straight, and only the blade was as white as silver......
This knife is as domineering as its owner, and the name is the same as "overlord knife"!
"Badao" Shentu Zhenyue.
And the two peerless masters with extraordinary bearing beside him are the two major followers of the Badao, "Heavenly Hook" Zuo Shaobai and "Earth Axe" Lei Shixiong, both of whom are masters in the early stage of the Returning to the Void Realm.
The sound of angry waves crashing on the shore came, but it couldn't hide the underworld tyrant's faint inquiry: "How are things going?" The tone was deep, exuding incredible domineering and confidence.
The tall and thin "Heavenly Hook" Zuo Shaobai replied respectfully: "Qiyu City Lord, the underworld faction 'One City, Two Castles and Three Absolute Valleys' and the Quartet Green Forest Cottage under it, below my Zhenyue Mountain City, there are five major mountain gates of Liyang Mountain, Tianmu Village, Yan Luoling, Nushui Gang, and Lumingpo who have sworn to return to our Zhenyue Mountain City, and there are twenty-four small and medium-sized sects under it that are willing to join the city lord......"
Shentu Zhenyue nodded silently.
On the side, the "earth axe" Lei Shixiong then said: "It's a pity that the underworld faction in the 'One City, Two Castles and Three Absolute Valleys' does not buy the face of our Zhenyue Mountain City at all, although the 'Eagle King' Zhanxiongfei has never regarded himself as an underworld sect, and the 'Wushuang Castle' Fort Lord Che Huanyue is also located in a remote area, and does not listen to the orders of the city lord, and the 'Black Dragon Valley' and ' 'The Valley of All Evils' is an ambiguous attitude, neither offending our envoy, nor giving a definite reply, and entertaining our envoy with good food and drink, but delaying again and again on key issues, not knowing its true meaning, the most hateful of which is the 'Cave Immortal Valley' in the Three Absolute Valleys, Lu Yifeng actually directly reprimanded my envoy for wishful thinking, which is really rebellious...... My subordinates implore the city lord to give an order, let his subordinates destroy the Cave Immortal Valley, and show my determination and courage in Zhenyue Mountain City, as long as the 'Cave Immortal Valley' is exterminated, I don't dare to make any more false promises to the 'Black Dragon Valley' and the 'Infinite Valley of All Evils'!"
Shentu Zhenyue snorted coldly, but still didn't reply.
Zuo Shaobai then said: "City Lord Mingjian. Lu Yifeng is just a clown who jumps off the beam, Dongxian Valley has amassed a huge amount of wealth by relying on large transactions with Guanwai, so that he can be among the ranks of the underworld factions, otherwise there are many strong people in the world, which round to get him Lu Yifeng's strength in the late stage of the innate period is so strong and arrogant? However, the 'Cave Immortal Valley' is easy to destroy, but the 'Black Dragon Valley' and the 'Cave Immortal Valley' have a great relationship, and its valley lord Suo Yang is said to have entered the void half a year ago, and the two sides have formed an alliance, but I am afraid that it is not the best policy to compete with it. ”
"Sky Hook" Zuo Shaobai finished speaking, but the "Earth Axe" Lei Shixiong next to him glared at him viciously.
Zuo Shaobai smiled secretly, he has a close relationship with Lei Shixiong, but the two sides have always had different opinions on politics. Lei Shixiong, the "earth axe", is like his big axe, going straight and opening up the world, while Zuo Shaobai does things like his Wu hook sword, straight with curves, straight in the curve, straight in the curve......
However, although the two have occasional differences of opinion, they are not hindered from being as close as brothers, and their personalities complement each other in a certain way, and they are actually the right-hand men of Shentu Zhenyue.
It's just that after the two of them finished talking about their opinions at this time, Shentu Zhenyue would immediately express their opinions in the past, but this time after a long time, Shentu Zhenyue was always silent.
Zuo Shaobai and Lei Shixiong glanced at each other, their eyes were uncertain, and they were about to ask, but they heard Shentu Zhenyue's deep voice sound again: "There will be great changes in heaven and earth......
The two of them were shocked, waiting for Shentu Zhenyue's discussion, but in an instant, the tone that was originally a little emotional suddenly changed, and they regained their previous majesty and majesty again, and said: "Lu Yifeng, Suo Yang, don't be afraid, even if they join forces, the old man can easily cut them under the knife...... Wushuang Castle' Che Huanyue, hum, if the old man expected, their brothers are just remnants of Zoroastrianism, now Zoroastrianism is raging in the Tianshan Mountains, Che Huanyue's brothers' attention is here, their weapons want to support the Zoroastrian rebellion, they must pass through the jurisdiction of the 'Twelve Flying Eagle Castle', judging from Zhanxiongfei's stinky temper, they will definitely obstruct it, and the war between the two sides is about to break out, so don't pay attention to it......; Hey, Old Ghost Zhong secretly took refuge in the Demon Gate, thinking that all the heroes in the world are ignorant? It's really funny......"
"What?'Infinite Valley of All Evils' has taken refuge in the Demon Gate?" Zuo Shaobai and Lei Shixiong exclaimed at the same time, they couldn't imagine that this underworld giant had become a lackey of the Demon Gate, this news was really shocking.
And Shentu Zhenyue was able to bypass the two of them to know this martial arts secret, which is enough to show that this "world's first sword" martial arts supreme has a more secret power, Zuo and Lei, as Shentu Zhenyue's henchmen, have no idea about this, and they can't help but feel more cold in their hearts, and they are more afraid of Shentu Zhenyue, and they are afraid that they will become more cautious in private, and they dare not make any small moves. (To be continued......)
