Chapter 234: Ascending to the top of the cliff, but letting go.

Thousands of islands, one man and one dog, looking up.

On the Sword Immortal Cliff, it is extremely quiet. Around Xie Baoshu and them, there were still many sword immortals. On this cliff, there lives one of the most powerful sword immortals in Dongxing Shizhou, the nameless sword immortal, and he is also the person who can really be called "one immortal". His ranking is still in front of the "Three Guests" and "Five Demons".

Xie Baoshu stretched out his hand and touched the yellow dog in front of him, it was very well-behaved, different from Xiaoba. Hachi never obediently stays by his side, and only causes trouble for himself.

The yellow dog has a very thin body, and it looks very old, as if it has not eaten enough, and has often experienced the sun and rain. Xie Baoshu didn't understand how this yellow dog crossed the island and caught up with him? He touched the yellow dog's body and asked, "Do you want to follow me?"

The yellow dog nodded, very happy.

Xie Baoshu suddenly felt that with a dog, it didn't seem so difficult to accept. When he was in Taoyuan Village, he liked dogs very much, but unfortunately he didn't dare to approach them. In the evening, Xie Baoshu took out a little food and threw it to the yellow dog. It is really common for cultivators to sleep in the open air.

On this nearby island, there are still many people who want to fly to the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff and worship the nameless Sword Immortal as a teacher. Unlike the Five Demons, this nameless sword immortal personally said that if anyone could climb the cliff, he would be accepted as an apprentice. From the time this sentence was spoken, until now, there are a total of seven people who have climbed the cliff.

None of them became the apprentices of the Nameless Sword Immortal. These seven people, there is a prince from a noble background, a little beggar who has nothing, and a woman, a powerful demon clan, a son of Buddhism, a prince in Chang'an City, and a blind old man.

Of the seven people, only six remain, and one of them has died.

However, the existence of these seven people seemed to give these sword immortals countless hopes. They live on the islands around the Sword Immortal Cliff, just thinking that one day, they can let this nameless Sword Immortal take them as an apprentice. Xie Baoshu came here just to see the style.

He had never thought of climbing to the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff. One man and one dog, sleeping on the ground. This yellow dog seems to be accustomed to the life of eating and sleeping in the open, as long as there is something to eat, it is very satisfied. By Xie Baoshu's side, snuggle up to each other. The weather in early spring seems to be a little cold.

The next day, Xie Baoshu slept well and was woken up by the sound of ping-pong.

He sat up and looked up, and it turned out to be the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff. There were several sword cultivators who launched an offensive towards the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff. Before the sun rose, these sword cultivators had already risen. Their swords rose to the wind, as if they were about to leap onto the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff at once.

At first, it was very relaxed, but slowly, it collided with the sword qi around it. Suddenly, the sword qi protecting these sword immortals clashed with the sword qi emanating from the nameless sword immortals near the edge of the sword immortal cliff. The two sword qi collided, making a crackling sound.

It was these voices that woke Xie Baoshu up.

Those sword cultivators seemed to be the rising sun, very dazzling. But this cliff is too high. They have it, and they're flying

By the time of the average, the strength was insufficient and the low fell into the cliff. Some of them want to fight those sword qi hard and pass out directly.

But these sword cultivators, one after another, have no fear at all.

Xie Baoshu touched the old dog beside him and decided to appreciate it. These sword immortals are worthy of admiration. The Nameless Sword Immortal has been famous for a long time, and his qualifications are extremely old, and flying here is also a kind of training. Even if these sword immortals can't climb the cliff, they can still practice here.

Such a beautiful view is just pleasing to the eye.

Suddenly, on the cliffside, a figure appeared. The sword immortals below were suddenly shaken and cheered. But that figure, ignoring others at all, like a meteor falling, Edgeworth came to Xie Baoshu. I saw him smiling, dressed plainly, looking at Xie Baoshu, and asking, "Do you want to climb the cliff?"

Xie Baoshu looked confused and asked, "I'm a swordsman, what are you doing climbing the cliff?"

The middle-aged man was still smiling, he winked at Xie Baoshu and said, "There are no rules, swordsmen can't climb the cliff." “

Xie Baoshu always felt that there was something in the middle-aged man's words, but he really didn't understand. At this time, the big yellow dog on the side suddenly bit the hem of his clothes. Xie Baoshu turned his head and asked, "What, do you want me to climb the cliff too?"

Xie Baoshu was a little uneasy, looked at the middle-aged man, and asked, "If I go to climb the cliff, I won't be killed, right?"

The swordsman climbed the cliff for thousands of years, and there has never been one.

The middle-aged man smiled: "Don't worry." ”

Xie Baoshu felt that countless eyes fell on him. He didn't like it too much and said, "Then I'll try it." He patted the big yellow dog and motioned for it to wait for him here. Then he took a leap and walked against the wind to the edge of the Sword Immortal Cliff.

I heard that this sword immortal cliff is as high as the city of seeking defeat. But in Xie Baoshu's senses, this cliffside seems to be higher. Xie Baoshu knew that this was because he was on the verge of the sea, and he had a delusion. He looked at the cliff in front of him and began to ride the wind.

At first, it was pretty simple.

Xie Baoshu's face was relaxed, he felt that something was wrong, climbing the cliff could not be so simple. After he flew for a while, he slowly felt that something was wrong. The sword qi around him was constantly growing. And not little by little, but exponentially.

A little higher, Xie Baoshu finally knew why, for thousands of years, only seven people could climb the cliffside.

He felt that the cultivation of his Jindan realm, the sword qi around him, would not exceed too much, but it was to his limit. This is a very interesting feeling, because even Xie Baoshu doesn't know where his limits are. He thought it was interesting, and suddenly, the immortal seed in his body exploded, and then he went up against the wind.

Xie Baoshu heard that in this Sword Immortal Cliff, the most climbed are literati except for Sword Immortals.

In order to enjoy the beautiful scenery, they want to climb the high cliff, look up at the blue clouds and high sky, and look down at the thousands of mountains and rivers, and take in the beautiful scenery. Secondly, climbing the cliff can release emotions and express feelings, and literati often climb high places to write poems

The form of catharsis to lament their miserable life.

Xie Baoshu climbed the cliff with a determined expression.

In his original place, the middle-aged man looked at Xie Baoshu's figure and was a little puzzled in his heart. He is a disciple of the Nameless Sword Immortal, a prince of Chang'an City, and the brother of the current saint Li Wenjian, Li Fuyao. He has been on the edge of the Nameless Cliff for many years. This morning, I heard a message from the master asking him to invite this young man to climb the cliff.

Li Fuyao has been apprenticed to the master for more than 100 years, and he has never seen it, who can make the master nameless sword immortal use the word please. The young man in front of him, although powerful, has something peculiar. But for thousands of years, how many young people in this world who have had adventures have been here? Why is the master so special to this young man?

Li Fuyao didn't understand, just as he couldn't understand the battles in the palace, so he came to Xingshi Prefecture early.

At that time, he and Li Wenjian were both expected to sit on the throne. Although at that time, he was just a prince. The word "prince", when you hear the word "prince", you are not necessarily a royal noble, this title is not only limited to people in the royal family, but also some people who have made great contributions to the country can also be named princes.

Back then, Li Fuyao was not only a relative of the emperor, but also had great contributions. He took one person and one sword, and took Xuanwuwei with him to quell the turmoil in South Luoqi Prefecture at that time. You must know that before he apprenticed, he was only a Jindan realm monk. In Nanluoqi Prefecture, which is full of bigwigs, he can come and go freely, and he really has the ability.

The king originated in the Han Dynasty, when the prince and the emperor's brother would be crowned king. From the Wei and Jin dynasties, the division of kings was more precise, and the feudal kings were divided into princes and county kings. Only the emperor's brothers and princes can be called princes, even ordinary people who have made great contributions to the country will not be crowned princes, and the scope of the county king is relatively wide compared to the prince, up to the prince's son, down to the civil and military officials. With the change of times, although the standards for the title of kings in each dynasty are different, their general content is almost the same.

In the system of the Tang Dynasty, the prince is the first rank of the prince, and his status and rights are quite high, which can be said to be under one person and above ten thousand. The county king is a title one level lower than the prince, so his restrictions are naturally not as strict as the prince, in addition to the royal family, virtuous officials and people with outstanding contributions can also be named the county king. However, in the Ming Dynasty, the county king was a special title for some people, specifically referring to other sons who did not inherit the prince's title, and others could not be called county kings.

Historically, the prince either has no power and becomes a rich prince, or he has a lot of power, but in the end he will be managed by the emperor to get rid of it.

At that time, Li Fuyao didn't choose either, he took his sword and came to Dongxing Shizhou alone, and there was no trace. When Li Wenjian ascended the throne, the news came out that he had climbed the Sword Immortal Cliff and became the seventh disciple of the Nameless Sword Immortal. It is also the latest disciple of the Nameless Sword Immortal in the past hundred years.

Li Fuyao looked at the big yellow dog and said with a smile: "Do you want to go up?"

The big yellow dog nodded, wagging his tail with obvious interest.

Xie Baoshu, who was climbing the cliff, suddenly slowed down because he was sudden

I realized that I had to restrain myself when climbing the cliff, and I couldn't think about climbing to the sky in one step. You can't do it all at once, you must save enough energy. After walking for nearly a third of the way, I began to panting, and at this time my muscles began to swell, and when I looked up, I had no end, and I felt a sense of retreat, which was not only a physical test, but also a psychological torture.

Li Fuyao saw Xie Baoshu's slowing down movement, and smiled slightly, his understanding was still very good.

Climb the cliff and remember not to rush forward with enough strength, so you will definitely not be able to reach the top. Just like the Avenue of Eternal Life, the fastest and most powerful force may not be able to go to the end. Only by slowly drawing it can there be hope.

Climbing a cliff is like climbing a mountain.

At this time, there were sword immortals who climbed the cliff with Xie Baoshu, and when they saw the knife hanging from Xie Baoshu's waist, they were immediately a little unconvinced. One by one, like ants on a tree, surged up. At this moment, what they were thinking about was not climbing the cliff, but not losing to Xie Baoshu.

There is a sword immortal who is extremely fast, and he quickly surpassed Xie Baoshu.

Xie Baoshu smiled slightly, this is the right taste.

No matter which road, there must be more than one person walking, and in the way forward, it is inevitable that the troops in front will be left behind, or overtaken by the team behind, but there must be no need to panic or worry, the road is still very long. Always have your own pace, the last person to reach the finish line is the winner, and the ups and downs on the road don't have to be too entangled.

A sword immortal who was passing by Xie Baoshu's side suddenly raised a middle finger at him.

Xie Baoshu's heart did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh a little.

Climbing the cliff is very tiring, climbing the long-distance continuous cliff is even more tiring, everyone has their own limits, and there is no potential to be tapped, usually living a comfortable life, there is no need to think about these things at all, but I really encountered it, in fact, the limit of the monks is far less weak than imagined.

During the entire trailwalk, when they were about halfway up, some people felt that they really couldn't go on, because their thighs and calves were already cramping, which was the result of being crushed by the sword qi. Every one or three points up is very laborious, and you need to rest for a while after flying a few steps, and the cliff above you can't see the end at a glance, as if you have really reached your limit.

Xie Baoshu surpassed one by one, but there was still no fluctuation in his heart.

Until, he passed the sword fairy who gave him the middle finger just now. This sword immortal, to be honest, is already very good. Of all the people who climbed the cliff, he was in the top five. At this time, when Xie Baoshu caught up with him, he had no strength. But he is still trying to climb up, and he seems to be very unconvinced.

Until, when Xie Baoshu passed in front of him, he raised a middle finger with his backhand.

This sword immortal's face was pale, and under the pressure of the sword qi around him, he passed out and fell to the bottom of the sea. There were other sword cultivators around, and they hurriedly salvaged him. People here will help each other. Because you don't know if you will faint one day, when you climb the cliff.

So this is the Sword Immortal Cliff, an unwritten rule.

The sword immortal who fell into the water must be rescued.

Xie Baoshu ignored these things and continued to fly up.

The sword qi around him had already formed a very terrifying coercion. On the way up the cliff, he looked back and saw the past, the sounds and sights, the smoky rooftops, the soft evening bells, the flickering lights, and the sword aura that foreshadowed death was faintly flowing overhead.

Xie Baoshu gritted his teeth and continued to fly up.

After overtaking the next four, they were finally able to see the top of the cliff. Climbing the cliff is tiring, but every step you climb up, you see a different scenery. Although the high place is not cold, compared to the small vision of a cable of mountains, that chill is nothing. Xie Baoshu stopped for a moment and found that the people below were as small as ants.

At this moment, he somewhat understood why those major repairs liked to sit on a high place.

Because of this feeling, it's really good.

Finally, when he came to the top of the cliff, Xie Baoshu did not go up. He stopped here, feeling the terrifying aura coming from his side. At this moment, his skin was already oozing blood. Just one foot away, Xie Baoshu can go up. There were countless sword immortals below, all staring at Xie Baoshu.

Could it be that the eighth disciple of the Nameless Sword Immortal is about to be born today?

It was actually a swordsman, these sword immortals, who were both angry and helpless underneath.

Li Fuyao looked at Xie Baoshu about to climb to the top of the cliff, and thought in his heart, sure enough, Master's vision is stronger than himself. When he flew down just now, when he saw Xie Baoshu, he thought that this young man was good, but he was still a little short of climbing the cliff. Unexpectedly, I was slapped in the face in an instant.

The old yellow dog on the side wagged his tail and was very happy.

Xie Baoshu stopped and looked at the scenery. Each mountain stands as a devout belief in the mysteries of nature. Because of this, there is a special affection for the cliff, which is as deep and heavy as its body.

The surrounding islands offer a panoramic view. This Sword Immortal Cliff is the highest island in the vicinity, and it is also the most marginal island. Further east, there is the endless East China Sea, and there is no land in sight. Xie Baoshu stood on the edge of the cliff, watching the red sun spraying thin, watching the peaks towering, and looking at the vast sea. Return to nature, breathe in the fresh air, get rid of the stagnation of winter, and suddenly have the magnificence of "swinging the chest and growing stratus clouds".

Climbing the cliff is by no means a simple step, it gives the cliff climber eagle-like eyes, leopard-like body, mountain-like vision, sea-like mind, never give up perseverance and never give up the spirit.

No wonder, these sword immortals all like to come here to climb the cliff and hone their sword intent.

The pursuit of kendo is like traveling to the cliff again and again, some people give up before trying, some people are satisfied with the scenery on the way and give up halfway, and some people try to take shortcuts and give up their efforts. In fact, only with confidence, not afraid of difficulties, step by step, to reach the top of the cliff, can you enjoy the most beautiful scenery and enjoy the joy of success.

On the cliff, several figures appeared, as if they were the apprentices of the nameless sword immortal. Like Li Fuyao, they all came out to welcome Xie Baoshu with a smile. This young man seems to be about to become their little junior brother. However, the nameless sword immortal seems to have remained in the house and has not come out.

On the island, Li Fuyao stretched out his hand, grabbed the neck of the old yellow dog, jumped out with it, and flew to the top of the cliff. After becoming a disciple of the Nameless Sword Immortal, climbing the cliff was no longer a problem. Li Fuyao's speed is very fast, and he is simply soaring.

He took the old yellow dog and came to his senior brothers, and stood together, there were five people in total. The Nameless Sword Immortal had seven disciples, one of whom died and one who traveled outside in Kyushu. On this Sword Immortal Cliff, there are only five. They all smiled and looked at Xie Baoshu.

Li Fuyao said: "Come on, come up, one step further, it is the Avenue of Eternal Life." ”

Someone next to him said, "It doesn't matter if you practice the sword, it's the same if you practice the sword again." ”

The only female sword immortal said, "Little junior brother, she looks really handsome. ”

Xie Baoshu looked at them, but suddenly let go of his hand and let his body fall into the sea.
