Chapter 19: The Great Elder
Tianxing saw that the white fox was surrounded by several teenagers, and he wanted to run but had nowhere to run, he looked very scared, his face changed and he was obviously a little annoyed, and stepped forward with a wooden stick, and the wooden stick pointed forward, "Let go of her, if anyone wants to hurt her again, don't blame me for ignoring the feelings of the same family." ”
The young men of about fifteen years old looked very angry when they saw a person standing behind them, and when they saw it clearly, it turned out to be Tianxing.
"Hehe, it's the senior brother, why do you also like this fox, wait for the brothers to catch it, and then play for you for two days, why be in such a hurry." ”
", she's not a pet, she's my sister. ”
At this time, the white fox saw the gap and immediately rushed behind Tianxing, and several teenagers saw that the white fox seemed to be real, and they were familiar with Tianxing, so they turned their heads and looked at the young man in Tsing Yi behind him.
The young man's appearance was quite delicate, but there was a hint of evil in his eyes, and he was looking at Tianxing with slanted eyes at this time.
"I'll give you face before I call you a senior brother, you have been playing with this fox for many days, a fellow brother, what's wrong with lending us to play for a few days?"
"You don't have to give me face. ”
After Tianxing finished speaking, he waved a wooden stick and stepped forward, and poked a stick at the young man's chest, the young man was also good, and turned around in time to avoid Tianxing's wooden stick, and the seven teenagers saw that Tianxing said to fight, and they really didn't give any face, so they also stepped forward to surround Tianxing, and Tianxing danced with the wooden stick in his hand so impenetrable that it was difficult for them to come forward, and they could only continue to dodge Tianxing's stick.
Because there are many people, Tianxing must be careful to defend everyone's movements, so he can't do the momentum of letting go of the attack, so he can only stalemate, the white fox saw that Tianxing was surrounded at this time, and immediately turned around and ran to the hall, and found Leng Ye and Feng Ling, Leng Ye and Feng Lin happened to come out, and after seeing the white fox, they knew that something was wrong.
Feng Ling picked up the white fox, ran out with Leng Ye, and saw the celestial stars who were fighting with the eight people, five of the eight people were spirit warriors, and three were spirit people. Tianxing is the first layer of the spirit at this time, and he only took advantage of it because of his domineering and majestic stick method, so he only fought eight of them, and if it was for a long time, he was afraid that he would not be able to last long.
Leng Ye wanted to draw his sword to help Tianxing, but was pulled by Feng Ling: "The one in green clothes is the grandson of the Great Elder, Wang Jiming, don't hurt him, the Great Elder has always been domineering and protective of his shortcomings, and I will go to find my father if he is entangled." After saying that, Feng Ling ran away, and Leng Ye immediately drew his sword, rushed into the encirclement of the group of people, and stabbed at Wang Jiming, because suddenly one person rushed out, and the formation of the eight people immediately dispersed, and Tianxing saw the time and made a move to 'sweep away a thousand troops' with the wood element.
Layers of green light emitted and hit two of them, the two of them couldn't dodge and were knocked away by Tianxing's stick, Tianxing quickly turned around, and another stick poked at the person behind him, and the wooden stick poked the man's chest fiercely, because it was the same door, Tianxing only wanted to teach them a lesson, so he didn't use all his strength.
The cold night swordsmanship was fierce, dragging Wang Jiming to death, making it impossible to command the attack of those people, Tianxing hit one person on the shoulder with a stick, knocking that person to the ground, and the other three people saw Tianxing's fierce moves, and did not dare to step forward and entangle.
Tianxing retracted his momentum, turned his head with a stick to look at the cold night and fought with Tsing Yi, and then held the stick tightly: "Second brother, let me go." Before Leng Ye could reply, he saw Tianxing's stick appear from behind him, and poked Wang Jiming fiercely, that Wang Jiming saw Tianxing's offensive coming, and he didn't dare to underestimate it, and the sword in his hand immediately danced out a few sword flowers to block Tianxing's wooden stick.
Leng Ye stood aside, watching the battle between Tianxing and Wang Jiming, while being careful of the sneak attack of the remaining three, because no one came to help, Wang Jiming gradually fell into the disadvantage, Tianxing jumped up the stick in his hand and smashed it at Wang Jiming, Wang Jiming didn't dare to take Tianxing's stick hard, so he had to step backwards to dodge.
Tianxing was in the wooden stick, about to land in a moment, suddenly changed his move, the head of the stick forward, "standing up to the sky" poked Wang Jiming's lower abdomen, the stick was fierce and merciless, because Tianxing changed his move too quickly, Wang Jiming couldn't react, and watched the wooden stick, about to poke at himself.
A black shadow suddenly appeared between the two of them, holding Tianxing's wooden stick in one hand, "pop" and "snap" twice, Tianxing's wooden stick broke, and a red five-finger print appeared on his face.
Tianxing held the broken wooden stick, stood upright and looked at the old man in front of him, dressed in black, his hair and beard were also gray, his hands were behind his back, and he had a fierce aura, which was somewhat similar to the cold night.
"Boy, dare to hurt my grandson, you are not small, do you really think that if you become a disciple of Fenglan, you can be lawless?"
"I will hurt anyone who wants to insult my relatives, and I am not afraid of you. ”
"Hehe, such an arrogant yellow-haired child, let the old man teach you a lesson on behalf of Fenglan. Stretching out his hand, he grabbed the celestial star, so fast that the celestial star only saw an afterimage.
His hand stopped in front of Tianxing's chest, and his other hand grabbed it tightly: "Great Elder Wang Ling, don't come to harm's way, why did you come to my inner courtyard?"
Wang Ling looked at it, grabbed his hand tightly, and the person who prevented him from teaching Tianxing was Feng Lan, and his face immediately changed, "Hehe, it turned out to be the sect master, I haven't seen you for a long time, I just wanted to go and see you!" So I came to this inner courtyard, and happened to meet my grandson to learn from your apprentice, I saw that the first senior brother of this maple wood sect had excellent qualifications, so I wanted to teach him martial arts, and there was no other meaning." ”
"That's good, if you have nothing to do, please ask the Great Elder to go back, the outer courtyard is still relatively busy."
"Hehe, what the sect master said is true. The Great Elder turned and wanted to leave.
"Grandpa, I want that fox. Wang Jiming saw that Wang Ling wanted to leave, and immediately shouted to stop.
"Oh, then take it away. Wang Jiming walked towards the white fox in Feng Ling's arms, and Tianxing stepped forward to block Wang Jiming's way when he saw it.
"Grandpa" Wang Jiming turned his head to look at Wang Ling.
"Boy, I know this is your pet, lend it to my grandson and return it to you in a few days. ”
Tianxing frowned, "She is my relative." ”
"Great Elder, let's take a closer look at this white fox, she is a spirit fox, not an ordinary fox. Feng Lan took a step forward and stood in front of the Celestial Star, worried that the moody and extremely protective Great Elder would hurt the Celestial Star again.
"Oh?!So my grandson's vision is good, he fell in love with this spiritual creature at a glance, hehe, can you let your spirit fox stay with my grandson for a few days?" Wang Ling looked at Tianxing proudly, looking like what can you do to me, this fox I want to decide.
"Snap" a palm print, deeply imprinted on Wang Jiming's face, Tianxing, Feng Lan, and Wang Ling were all stunned, the three of them were careful of each other, but they forgot that there was another person here, and the coldness of this person would often make people forget his existence.
"I see that my grandson is very qualified, so I can't help but want to learn from him. The Great Elder probably wouldn't suggest it, right?"
Wang Ling looked at Leng Ye without speaking, and then looked at his grandson, the red five finger prints on Wang Jiming's face showed that the force of Leng Ye's slap was really not small.
"Let's go. "It was very surprising that the Great Elder did not make a move to the cold night, but turned around like this and left with Wang Jiming.
Wang Jiming rubbed his face, glanced at the cold night, and for some reason, his grandfather, who had always helped him, just let go of the kid in front of him, so he had no choice but to turn around and follow Wang Ling away.
Feng Lan, who had been worried about Wang Ling's move, looked at the back of the distance, took a light breath, and turned to look at Leng Ye: "You knew him before?"
Cold Night shook his head. "Never seen it. ”
"This is not his usual style, and he just let it go away in such a hurry? You must be careful in the future, let me go back first." ”
Tianxing took the white fox in Feng Ling's arms, examined it carefully, and saw that the white fox did not do any harm, so he put his heart down and left behind Feng Lan with Leng Ye and Feng Ling.
"Grandpa, why don't you help me, that kid beats me very hard, Fenglan, you are not afraid, you are afraid of him?"
"Shut up, don't provoke them again, if you provoke them again, I won't be able to help you. ”
"Why?
"Hey, you'll find out later. The two figures slowly disappeared down the path.
In the main hall of the inner courtyard of the Maple Wood Sect, "You two must be very strange, as the Maple Wood Sect Master, that Wang Ling actually doesn't respect me at all, doesn't he?"
Tianxing and Leng Ye, standing at the foot of the steps, heard Feng Lande's question, looked at each other and did not answer, but nodded slightly.
"Ling'er, you say, I'll go and see if Qinglin is out of the customs, this is his chance to break through to the spirit person, it's a pity to miss it. If you have something to do, you can go back to the retreat room to find me. Feng Lan turned and left.
Feng Ling saw her father leaving, turned her head to look at Tianxing and Leng Ye and said: "Actually, this is also a piece of my father's heart, decades ago, when my father was just born, my grandmother was in urgent need of a herb because of her weak health, so my grandfather went out to find that spiritual grass, but I actually met someone from the Spirit Palace, someone paid for my grandfather's life, my grandfather was at the level of the Spirit King at the time, and a few of the dozen people in the Spirit Hall were Spirit Kings, and my grandfather fought hard to the end, but because the other party was outnumbered and seriously injured.
At this time, Wang Ling came to the rescue after this place, and killed the rest of the people in the Soul Palace, and helped Grandpa treat his injuries, and also helped Grandpa find the herbs that Grandma needed.
In the future, when my grandfather served as the suzerain, he was promoted to an elder, and now my father has become the suzerain, he has relied on his advanced age, made meritorious contributions to the sect several times, and once had a life-saving grace for my grandfather, so he did not put his father in his eyes at all, he did not listen to his father's orders at all, and sometimes refuted his father's instructions in public, and his father had no choice but to transfer him out of the inner court, only responsible for the management of the outer court, and forbade him to participate in the affairs of the inner court.
The Seventh Elder, the Fifth Elder, and the Sixth Elder of the Outer Courtyard are not fighting people, and they don't want to compete with the Great Elder for power, so Daddy asked the Second Elder Feng to gradually manage the affairs of the Outer Courtyard, slowly encroaching on Wang Ling's power, and when the time is ripe, he plans to let him unload his armor and return to the field, and enjoy his old age in peace, which is worthy of the Great Elder. ”
"Why don't you let the old sect master intermediate?"
"My grandfather was very sad because of his grandmother's death, so he left the Maple Wood Sect and disappeared. Even if my grandfather is here, there will be no turning point, because at the beginning, when my grandfather was in charge of the Maple Wood Sect, that Wang Ling was also a bully, and he listened to half obeyed and half obeyed his grandfather's orders. Grandpa remembered his life-saving grace, and he also tolerated him a little. It's just today's matter, it's really strange that the cold night actually made him retreat, could it be that a few years of life in the outer courtyard have made his temperament stable?"
"I don't think so, when he appeared before, that fierce momentum was not an old man who wanted to enjoy his old age in peace, what he could exude should be the appearance of the cold night, which reminded him of someone. ”
"Hey, it's useless for us to think too much, we can only hope that he has changed his temperament. I don't know how Qinglin is doing now. ”
Behind the main hall of the Maple Wood Sect, there is a place where plants and trees flourish, in this wood, there is a huge wooden house, although it is a wooden house, but it is extremely strong, ordinary sharp swords, it is difficult to leave scratches on it, just because this wooden house is made of thousands of years of spiritual wood, and after nearly a hundred years, the wood element is moisturized, and it is even stronger.
Inside, it is the inner elder of the Maple Wood Sect, the place where he retreats and cultivates with the hall master, there are more than a dozen rooms inside, and now, in these rooms, there is a handsome young man, sitting cross-legged, concentrating on absorbing it, the surrounding wood elements, from time to time around him, there are layers of light blue water element ripples, gently swinging, this person is Qinglin.
Qinglin had a feeling of breakthrough as early as two months ago, but in the middle, because Tianxing's mood was very unstable, as Qinglin, who was originally a friend and is now a brother, he was never able to calm down and break through to the spirit.
He has been in this room for five days, and because of the long-term suppression, the aura in his body has become very strong, so Qinglin tried to gather the water element again, and when the feeling of breakthrough came, he entered the spirit realm in an instant.
Outside the wooden house, Feng Lan sensed Qinglin's situation at this time and put his mind at ease. Breaking through the retreat is most afraid of being disturbed, so Feng Lan personally guards the pass, Qinglin is the second elder, and the only seedling of the Feng Hall Master, his mother is also related to Ice Crystal Island, and the most important thing is that Qinglin is the most obedient and thoughtful person among his three apprentices, and he can't have a half-point difference.
Qinglin looked inwardly at the dantian at this time, and within the wood element spirit bead, the nine spirit points of the beads were entwined with each other, and he continued to absorb and gather the surrounding spiritual power, and the nine spirit points began to slowly gather together.
"I must continue to improve my ability so that I will not drag down the Celestial Star, as long as I enter the spirit person, my water, wood, and techniques can be fused. ”
Qinglin, I don't want the battle of the five elements to happen again, I was the first to fall at that time, if it wasn't for Tianxing's timely rescue, I am afraid that I would have been stabbed to death by that person with a sword.
Qing Lin didn't dare to think about it anymore, and began to look at the wood element spirit bead in his body, the nine spirit points had already gathered together, slowly merging, "Yes, it's now." "When Qinglin took advantage of the fusion of the nine spirit points, he sucked the water element that was close to his body into the dantian at once, tightly surrounded the wood element spirit bead, and the water element began to slowly infiltrate into the wood element.
Qinglin's forehead began to sweat, and while he controlled the speed at which the nine spirit points fused, he controlled the water element, constantly infiltrating it, and wanted to make the two elements merge, so that after he entered the spirit person, he could skillfully use the two elemental moves of water and wood.
Finally, the water element entered the spirit bead, and the spirit points in the spirit bead were a little flustered, and the aura in Qinglin's body was also a little confused, "No, you must not fail, just a little bit." ”
Qinglin controlled the aura in the spirit bead to stabilize it, and slowly moved the water element towards it, and the nine wood element spirit points that were quickly gathered into one slowly moved closer to the past, and finally the water element gently fused the wood element spirit points together, and began to continuously merge with the wood element.
The color of the spirit bead of the green forest has slowly changed, no longer the dark green, but it has become a blue-green spirit bead, and if you look carefully, it also exudes a layer of light blue fluorescence.
Qinglin took a deep breath, wiped the sweat off his forehead, picked up the bamboo flute beside him and got up, walked out of the retreat room, saw the Fenglan sect master at the door, and smiled slightly: "Hehe, thank you master for guarding me personally." ”
Feng Lan touched Qinglin's head, "Can you succeed?"
Qinglin smiled, put the flute in his hand to his lips, a crisp and pleasant, tactful and melodious flute sounded, from under Qinglin, immediately grew a green vine, the green vine swayed left and right, Feng Lan listened to the pleasant flute and looked at the swaying green vine, felt very comfortable, suddenly shocked in his heart, and took three steps back.
The sound of the flute suddenly stopped, "The disciples have offended a lot, please calm the anger." ”
"Haha, how can I be angry, your flute is a water element, and there is even a spiritual attack, and the green vine is a wood element. Now that you are at will, you can fuse the two elements and attack freely, I am too late to be happy, but are you going to withdraw the green vine on the teacher's leg first? If someone of the same level as you is afraid that you have already been entangled by you. ”
Qinglin smiled embarrassedly, "Actually, I just found my own moves." ”
Qinglin broke through to the spirit, Tianxing is also a spirit, Leng Ye is still the ninth layer of the spirit warrior, and Feng Ling is also the ninth layer, but Leng Ye is not inferior, and it is also a matter of time to reach the spirit with Leng Ye's qualifications.
At night, the four of them sat together and laughed happily, and when everyone was finished, Tianxing smiled:
"Then I will say a word, tomorrow I will take Xiaoyu into the mountain to practice, and say hello to you, if there is no accident, I may wait until almost two years before I come out, my stick method is powerful and domineering, only by entering the mountain and constantly fighting with the spirit beast, can I improve, this time I want to go by myself." The three of you are going to stay in the Maple Wood Sect."
After Tianxing finished speaking, Qinglin and Leng Ye, Feng Ling's smile in the sky froze. "When was it decided?"
"Even today, after meeting the Great Elder, I feel that I am still too weak, even if I don't have the strength in the Maple Wood Sect, I will be bullied, not to mention that Xiao Yu is not used to living in the Maple Wood Sect. ”
"Let's stay with you. ”
"No need, the life in the deep mountains and old forests, Feng Ling can't stand it, I'm different, I'm used to practicing hard in the mountains and forests since I was a child, you can accompany Feng Ling in the cold night, and when I come back, I can still fight with you." ”
"Then what about me, I'm already a spirit, why don't you let me accompany you?"
"My uncle and aunt have just returned to the sect, you have to get together, and besides, you have just broken through and are not stable, and you are not suitable for fighting, okay, don't say more, I decided to apply for a trial from the master tomorrow, so let's rest early." Skystar got up and went into the house.
Leng Ye got up: "I'll send the wind chimes back." ”
Qinglin was speechless, took out the flute on his waist and put it to his lips, and a tactful and melodious song sounded.
