"My Heavenly Corpse Sect has always wanted to live forever in the Corpse Dao, and there is nothing else to ask for," the man in the tomb said, "Your Sect's offerings, we have also helped you kill a lot of people several times in return, and the two do not owe each other." ”

The person in the tomb is like the suzerain of today's corpse sect, the "Immortal Corpse King", who is unharmed. The Heavenly Corpse Sect is rarely exposed in the eyes of the world because of its shocking cultivation methods, and often chooses to cultivate in the barren tombs and wilderness mountains full of yin energy, and does not like to interact with people.

"Ten pieces of yin jade, plus a pair of blood jade, to reward the corpse king for his kindness." Jiang Baiqing said indifferently.

"These things don't do much for me!" Yin Wuxian said, "If you want to do it with Wang Xu, it is very risky, and it is very likely that you will not even be able to make up for the injury." ”

"Indeed, for a master like you and me, a few foreign objects are no longer helpful. On the contrary, the disciples of the Corpse King can use it," Jiang Baiqing said, "I can borrow the Corpse King to practice for half a year, I don't know what to do?" ”

Jiang Baiqing also knew that blood jade, yin jade and the like were not significant for a grandmaster who had reached the eighth rank like Yin Wuxian, and he really had to fight to the death with Wang Xu, in case he was injured, it would be much more troublesome, far from being made up for by these things.

So, Jiang Baiqing paused and put forward a suggestion that Yin Wuxian couldn't refuse.

"Why is the Shangqing Pearl in your hands?" Yin Wushu was finally surprised, and there was no more calm in his voice.

Shangqing pearl is not a simple commodity, it is a treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation in the Shangqing faction of the Maoshan sect taught by the Taoist Heavenly Master. Since Tao Hongjing of the Southern Qi Dynasty returned to Maoshan Mountain, collected the classics of his predecessors, and established the Shangqing faction, he befriended Xiao Yan, who had not yet become the emperor at that time, and obtained the jewel of this function to destroy the demon and clear the spirit, and ordered it to be the Shangqing pearl, as a symbol of the inheritance of the Shangqing faction.

Shangqing Zhu and He's Bi are listed as the world's two great martial arts treasures, He's Bi can help people refine qi, and Shangqing Zhu can assist people to refine their spirits. Of course, the Heshi Bi has always been stored in the palace, and few people use it to cultivate. At the end of the Sui Dynasty, there was chaos in the south, and the Shangqing Pearl was accidentally lost, but I didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Tianwu Sect.

The "Heavenly Corpse Sutra" cultivated by Yin Wuxian originated from the corpse of one of the hundred schools of thought during the Warring States Period, and it has become a rare miracle skill in the world by integrating the ancient body refining technique, which is infinitely powerful, and is not under many martial arts in the world, but people who practice the "Heavenly Corpse Sutra" will inevitably be in the cold corpse for a long time, and the spirit will be harmed by the demons more than other martial arts.

After negotiating the deal, Jiang Baiqing didn't want to stay longer, so he turned around and left the mass grave.

A crystal clear, pigeon-egg-sized pearl falls in front of the grave, under the illumination of the moonlight, there are strange images generated in the beads from time to time, such as the fairy and the jade girl, the clouds and cranes descend to the festival, it is very wonderful.

A hole suddenly appeared on the tomb, from which a yin wind emerged, wrapped in pearls, and flew into the tomb.

The next morning, Di Renjie's official ship pulled anchor and set sail, and the flotilla behind them went in turn, startling the civilian boats coming and going on the canal to avoid one after another.

The sword light is flying, the knife qi is breaking through the air, Li Rong's speed of the knife is not fast, and the knife techniques are all basic knife techniques, chopping, wiping, splitting, picking, and practicing meticulously.

"Thousands of high-rise buildings rise from the ground, and young people nowadays rarely attach so much importance to the foundation." Liu Xuan walked to the deck and watched Li Rong practice his knife and said loudly.

"No matter how clever the martial arts knife technique is, it is composed of basic moves such as splitting, chopping, wiping, and picking, and only after practicing these can you understand the principle of the knife technique and comprehend the charm." Li Rong put away his knife and stood up, and said with a light breath.

"Everyone understands the truth, how many can be done?" Liu Xuan said, "Everyone wants to practice that powerful and gorgeous move. ”

"From simple to complex, from complex to simple, there is no difference between high and low, it just depends on whether everyone is suitable." Li Rong said.

"It's better for us to have a fight," Liu Xuan said with a smile, "Let me see the sword technique that slashed Xiang Yunfei." ”

"My sword method is self-created, and my life is the reincarnation knife method, taking the opinion of the Buddhist family to live in the bad emptiness, including autumn wind, flowing water, dragon snake, eagle ape, angry thunder, lightning speed, silence, and void eight styles, limited to talent There are only the first six styles," Li Rong said solemnly with a knife.

"Your ambition is really not small," Liu Xuan said with a wry smile, "One sword technique actually wants to encompass so many kinds of sword intent." ”

Liu Xuan created his own "Water Moon Knife Technique", thinking that he had studied very deeply in the knife path, and he did not dare to include several completely different knife intents.

"I learned too much, and I didn't want to give up that one, but I always felt that I couldn't integrate it, and there was a slight stagnation between the transitions." Li Rong said.

"Well," Liu Xuan said in a deep groan, "In my experience, everything is connected, and grasping the connection can turn the tide." Water Moon Water Moon, Reflecting the Moon in the Water, Moonlight Like Water, This is the essence of my Water Moon Knife Technique, Yuan Ming can try my trick, three rings reflect the moon. ”

Liu Xuan took out the Water Moon Knife and drew one air ring after another like lightning, and the Water Moon Knife ran through the blade of the knife one by one, stabbing forward with force, like a stone thrown onto the moon shadow reflected in the water, causing layers of ripples.

The aura of air slashed through the air, making a sonic boom-like sound, and the power was unusual.

"Imitate the shape of the moon with true qi, and turn flowing water into the shape of the moon," Liu Xuan continued, "Yuan Ming will try my trick again." ”

Several qi rings were born one after another, and they were set on the body of the Water Moon Knife, like a divine dragon spitting a bead and crashing into Li Rong.

"Flowing water, vacuum vortex," Li Rong waved the Dragon Yin Knife, drawing the same flawless aura of qi, which instantly swelled and swallowed the aura that struck over.

"Burst," Liu Xuan said.

The Reflecting Moon Qi Ring that was caught in the vortex of Li Rong's True Qi suddenly burst open, shooting out countless lines of solid sword qi as fine as flowing water, straight towards Li Rong.

Li Rong seemed to be prepared, his feet slipped, and he dodged out, avoiding the invasion of the sword qi.

Scattered knife gas shot onto the deck, leaving several gaps of varying sizes, causing sawdust to fly.

Liu Xuan didn't continue the pursuit, the two were just fighting.

"Whether it is wind, rain, thunder, lightning, or the moon, they are all natural celestial phenomena that people imitate with their true qi, and they are essentially true qi, and there is no difference. Moreover, although the celestial phenomena are different, there are no more than yin and yang, and the five elements change, so it is good to grasp the changes in them and slowly become proficient. Liu Xuan said.

Li Rong nodded knowingly, some things can only be understood but not spoken, involving their respective comprehension of martial arts, outsiders have no way to suggest, can only roughly point out the direction of progress, the specific road has to be walked by individuals, Li Rong also asked his father Li Hui for advice, and the conclusions obtained are similar.

Then Li Rong used the "Thunder and Lightning Light Knife" style again, showing his knife technique to kill Xiang Yunfei, which made Liu Xuan's interest greatly increased, and bluntly said that Li Rong had touched the mystery of the knife method conversion, and happily talked to Li Rong about the knife techniques.

"Speaking of knife skills, there are not many people in Jiangzuo who are good at using knives," Liu Xuan said, "But there is a young master of knife skills, and the realm of cultivation is not below you, but one of my Jiangzuo Shuangbi." ”

"Jiang Zuo Shuangbi?" Li Rong asked.

"Heavenly Wolf Jiang Cheng of the Heavenly Witch Sect, Lu Ying, the demon sword in the Crane Song!" Liu Xuan said.

"Demon Knife?" Li Rong said.

"Lu Ying is the daughter of Qianhe Lu Yuze, who is famous for a pair of crane wings and double swords, and is invincible in the younger generation." Liu Xuan said, "Her youth is comparable to yours, and she is unanimously considered by Jiangnan Wulin to be a candidate for grandmaster in the future." ”

"Lu Yuze's daughter, crane wings and double blades." Li Rong said softly.

Among the masters that Li Rong has encountered, the Turkic Asli is a good opponent, although he is extremely bad, but his knife skills are clever, and then there is Li Yuanfang, but the two are not opponents, ordinary exchanges can not stimulate the fighting spirit, as for Adani's cultivation is average, he can't give Li Rong much threat, and there are very few other people who make knives. If you can meet another good knife player, it is estimated that you can also have a good income after a fierce battle.

After listening to Liu Xuan's words, Li Rong could feel that Liu Xuan's admiration for Lu Ying had an irrepressible interest.

"She's a rare beauty!" Liu Xuan smiled meaningfully.

"Oh," Li Rong replied.

He didn't care about Lu Ying's appearance, it just depended on whether her knife skills could make him feel excited, anyway, Li Rong felt that he liked Adani more.

"How is Heavenly Wolf Jiang Cheng?" Li Rong asked instead, "I hope he won't disappoint me like Xiang Yunfei." ”

"I've met this person once, and he does have extraordinary talents, especially full of wildness and a strong sense of battle, not comparable to the decrepit Xiang Yunfei." Liu Xuan said.

All the way to the Yuanxingchong, Liu Xuan and the others stayed on the boat without incident, and they got together to discuss martial arts, and they all gained something, and even Wei Chi Xiu also benefited a lot.

Liu Xuan was even more happy to watch the shipload of assets and property into the north, thinking about the property in the hands of the Black and White Society, naturally he was happy.

Liu Xuan's excitement was the opposite of Zhang Zichen's anger.

With the assistance of the Black and White Society, the slow and lazy government quickly took action, demolished temples and houses, searched for money and land, and happily sat on the ground to share the spoils.

Without the support of the Black and White Society, those officials of the government would not dare to provoke and offend the Heavenly Witch Sect. On the one hand, the Tianwu Sect contracted the battle line, and on the other hand, Zhang Zichen and Zhu Huizhen led the fierce battle with the Black and White Society. Fan Li personally took the master to fight with Zhang Zichen and Zhu Huizhen, of course, the power of Tianwu Sect in Jiangbei was still not as good as that of a local snake like the Black and White Society, and it fell behind for a while, and the loss was not small.

Zhang Zichen asked for instructions from the general altar on the one hand, and on the other hand, he gave an order for a comprehensive retreat, preparing to go to Yangzhou to join Jiang Baiqing.

No matter how long the road is, there is an end, and the official ship carried Di Renjie and his party south along the canal, and arrived at Yangzhou, the administrative office of Huainan Province, after several days of travel.

Yangzhou Governor Shi Gong Peng Zu took Chen Cheng with a farewell, recorded the military Zhang Han, the heads of the houses in the house, and the gentry officials in Yangzhou stood at the north dock of the city waiting for Di Renjie's arrival.

Although Gong Pengzu was dissatisfied with Di Renjie in his heart, as a self-righteous official, he still had to have etiquette on the surface, not to mention that Di Renjie had been famous for a long time, and his prestige in terms of qualifications was far above that of Gong Pengfu.

While pondering, the official ship slowly docked, and Gong Pengzu hurriedly led people to meet him.

Di Renjie got down from the hanging ladder, stepped on the board, and walked slowly to the dock. Yuan Xingchong and Li Rong followed closely behind.

Liu Xuan naturally would not follow Di Renjie to make a public appearance, and had already left the ship and entered the city in advance.

On the dock, a group of officials talked to Di Renjie one after another, Di Renjie read out the holy decree about this trip, and spoke for a while according to the rules and regulations of officialdom, before Gong Pengzu led the way into Yangzhou City.
