"Childe, are you planning to gather the power of the rivers and lakes for your own use? If this is the case, Xiaoxiao sent an order to Huang Ling and asked them to sort out the information in advance...... "I heard that Mu Qiuhuang is really going to challenge the top ten masters, Su Xiaoxiao also hurriedly said her conjecture, in her previous cognition, Mu Qiuhuang's every move is meaningful, and as an excellent strategist, in addition to anticipating the enemy's opportunities, she must also understand the master's intentions.

When Mu Qiuhuang heard this, he glanced at Su Xiaoxiao with interest, and said with a smile: "No need, I just want to hone my own cultivation, it's not as complicated as you think." ”

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Mu Qiuhuang smiled more and more happily: "What? Unbelief? ”

After Mu Qiuhuang picked up the water bladder beside him and drank a few sips, he said: "The power of the rivers and lakes is not as worthy of value as you think. ”

Without waiting for Su Xiaoxiao to answer, Mu Qiuhuang continued to say to himself: "What are the rivers and lakes? In the mouth of the storyteller, the rivers and lakes are a wonderful world. But in reality? The rivers and lakes are nothing, and if you compare them with temples, they are like shallow mud ponds comparing themselves to the vast deep sea. And those so-called people in the rivers and lakes are just fish, shrimp, crabs and turtles, and the so-called top ten masters are just those who grow a little fatter! After all, there is no such thing as a dragon and a giant whale in a shallow mud pond. Even if there are some dragon giant whales once in a while, they will definitely leave this 'shallow mud pond' and plunge into the 'vast deep sea', such as the group of guardians in my family, such as my master's sword Nine Emperors, such as the four great sword immortals who have long been otherworldly...... Now that these dragon whales have left separately, the rest of the remaining rivers and lakes are just busy. Even if this group of people is really gathered together, it is just a rabble, and it will never be able to compete with a well-trained army, if they are allowed to fight one-on-one with the soldiers, they may win, but if a thousand charlatans and a thousand sergeants are put together, the first to be killed must be the thousand charlatans. Do you remember the killer who came to assassinate me when I was in the imperial capital? If they hadn't taken refuge in the other princes, they would never have come to assassinate me, because I have no grievances with me, but as you know, before these two people could show their prestige in the rivers and lakes, they were solved by a rain of arrows from Xiahou Xuanba's men...... Let's not talk about these "miscellaneous fish and shrimp", Longhu Mountain, Wudang Mountain, Buddhism, these are relatively powerful in the rivers and lakes, but why did the people who 'hold the rivers and lakes Niu Er' in the past be Longhu Mountain? Actually, it's not because it's enshrined as a state religion. That's why Wudang Mountain and Futu Temple are vying to be friends with me now......"

When Mu Qiuhuang talked about the rivers and lakes, his face was full of disdain, and there were many mockery in his words.

Although Su Xiaoxiao had the heart to defend the rivers and lakes in her heart, she found that what Mu Qiuhuang said was the truth, and the words that finally came out of her mouth became: "What the son said is extremely true." ”

——————————————————————————————

With a "bell", the sword in Ji Ruoxue's hand touched the iron ring again.

"That's all for today!" A leisurely stream followed.

With the voice, I saw Li Taibai lying on the bamboo chair under the eaves, crossing Erlang's legs, not to mention, the foot on it was still shaking, and the wine jug in his hand was still ...... It's really laid-back.

"Alas......" Ji Ruoxue sighed, withdrew the long sword into the scabbard, walked up to the old man, and said with regret on her face: "It's a pity, it's only these last two iron rings missing." ”

When Li Taibai heard this, he smiled and said, "Your progress has been very fast, and it has exceeded my budget." ”

"But... Master, I've been like this for more than ten days in a row? No matter how hard I try, every time I get to the last two rings, it's as if they are deliberately trying to touch my sword......" Ji Ruoxue huffed.

Li Taibai smiled when he heard this: "It's already very good, don't be greedy, besides, if this is really so easy to be stabbed by you, won't this Wudang Mountain's world's first sword formation become a joke?" ”

"Ahh What did you just say, Master? Ji Ruoxue said with a look of surprise: "Before, Xue'er thought that there was a reason why you inserted these seventy-two bamboos, but I didn't expect this to be the 'Nine Palace Bagua Sword Array' of Wudang Mountain?" ”

"Hmmm! How do you also know the prestige of the 'Nine Palaces Bagua Sword Array'? Li Taibai asked.

"That's natural, Xue'er not only knows the prestige of this 'Nine Palace Bagua Sword Array', but also knows that Master, your old man once broke through the world's number one sword formation! I've heard that you broke through the formation for a whole hour, and the result was that you couldn't break the formation, and they couldn't help you, and it ended in a draw, right? Ji Ruoxue explained excitedly.

"How do you know this? Although I went to Zhang Fuling to discuss it, it wasn't sneaky, but it didn't make everyone know! Li Taibai said strangely.

"So it's all true! Then Master, you have to tell me about your deeds in Wudang Mountain......" Ji Ruoxue said with a curious expression, and moved a small bench and sat in front of Li Taibai.

"Tell me how you know this?" Li Taibai couldn't help but feel very strange.

"Master, these are all what Xue'er listened to Xue'er's master." Ji Ruoxue replied.

Although this sentence is a bit tongue-twisting, Li Taibai still understands it, the first master in Ji Ruoxue's mouth refers to him, and the second refers to Ji Ruoxue's other master ~ Dao Sword Immortal.

"Master, tell Xue'er what happened in the first place, why did you break into Wudang Mountain? Also, Master, what is the meaning of you asking me to pierce these seventy-two iron rings? Ji Ruoxue said curiously.

Li Taibai glanced at Ji Ruoxue dotingly, picked up the wine jug and took a sip of wine, and said slowly: "I have to correct you a problem, I am not going to Wudang Mountain, I am going to Wudang Mountain to visit." ”

"Alright! So why did you visit Wudang Mountain? Ji Ruoxue said curiously.

Li Taibai thought about it seriously and said: "At that time, I sensed that someone had broken through the Heavenly Realm, and the source was from Wudang Mountain, so I wanted to see who had broken through the Heavenly Realm, but when I went to Wudang Mountain, Zhang Fuling had not yet left the customs, so his disciples and grandchildren misunderstood that I was going to destroy their ancestor's qi, so they took the lead in starting with me...... What happened next is what your master told you. ”

"Master, is that sword formation really that powerful? Not even you can break it. Ji Ruoxue was puzzled.

Li Taibai thought about it seriously for a while, and said: "That sword formation is called "the first in the world", which is worthy of its name, as for breaking the formation? If I force it, I can break it, but I have to use a stupid way, and that is to compare endurance with them...... However, when the formation is broken, I will presumably run out of true yuan, because when I broke through the formation, I found that the seventy-two true elements of their formation were actually interconnected. ”

"And what about later? Master, have you ever competed with Zhang Xianren? Ji Ruoxue asked.

"Not really, I'm just curious about who broke through the Heavenly Realm? Just make sure it's Zhang Fuling, what do you do to bully others? Li Taibai said leisurely.

"Giggle...... Master, you're so amazing! Ji Ruoxue touted.

"That's nature, or do you think I'm the number one in the world to brag about?"

"What is the Heavenly Realm? Master. Ji Ruoxue was puzzled.

Li Taibai opened his mouth to explain to him: "In the martial arts of the world, the nine grades are respected, and the nine grades and above are called the heavenly realm. And once the cultivation reaches the heavenly realm, it can sense the qi in the Dao heaven and earth, can predict some things in advance, and has the ability to seek good fortune and avoid evil...... And after arriving at the heavenly realm, there is another characteristic, that is, it can produce a "qi machine", of course, this qi machine can only be felt by people who are also in the heavenly realm, before Zhang Fuling arrived at the heavenly realm, it was only our four sword immortals who arrived in the heavenly realm, so the qi in the sky is four strands, and after Zhang Fuling broke through, the "qi machine" in the sky changed from four to five......

After listening to Li Taibai's speech, Ji Ruoxue couldn't help but be curious: "Master, how many Heavenly Realm masters are there in the world now?"

Li Taibai sighed when he heard this, and stretched out four fingers.

"Four? Why is there less and less? Ji Ruoxue wondered.

"It means that one is dead!" Li Taibai said lightly.

"But it's not right, how can they all be masters of the Heavenly Realm? Who has the power to kill him? Ji Ruoxue raised her own questions.

Li Taibai said calmly: "The masters of the Heavenly Realm are also people, they are just called 'immortals', they are not real immortals after all, it is not difficult to kill the masters of the Heavenly Realm, as long as they are outnumbered......"

"Oh! Then Master, ...... these bamboo poles and iron rings you inserted? Ji Ruoxue asked.

"Yes, as you might expect." Li Taibai smiled and said: "It's just that I've just learned a superficial thing, and it's just a bamboo pole inserted according to the direction of the Nine Palaces Bagua, which is dead after all, and can only be used to hone your patience and reaction ability...... You must know that the real "Nine Palace Bagua Sword Array" is a condensed body in the middle, a hidden leap on the outside, and a variety of murderous aura condensation......"

"Alas......" Ji Ruoxue suddenly sighed and said leisurely: "But just such a little fur, Xue'er can't finish it." ”

Li Taibai glanced at her and smiled: "It seems that you are tired of practicing too?" But that's right, if you practice like this every day, it will wear out people's minds in the end, and you have reached a bottleneck now, and if you continue to practice like this day after day, it will not do much good...... It's time to get out and practice. ”

"Master, what do you mean......" Ji Ruoxue said excitedly.

Li Taibai smiled slightly and said, "As you wish, let you go to the rivers and lakes to practice." ”

"Really! You are so good, Master. Ji Ruoxue said excitedly at the elk: "Xiaohua, we can finally go to the rivers and lakes." ”

The elk flower, who was resting beside the courtyard wall, also let out a cheerful hiss in response to this.
