Chapter 5 The Sunset of the Year
The stele stood upright, unwavering, but in front of it was dirt and soft—at least for a sword. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 However, now that the stele is silent, the earth is silent, but the sword body trembles slightly, and there is a clear sound.
The swordsman hid his face and left, while the remaining half of the people looked at the trembling sword body and fell silent again.
Some people are wondering if the master of the Tianji Palace, who is in charge of promulgating the "Qingyun List" this year, has accepted bribes from others, so that he has lost a lot of water? Otherwise, why was the first swordsman who was not on the list able to take Ye Jian and hide three swords, the first sword even had a slight upper hand, while the second swordsman only needed one sword and was defeated?
Some people also thought that it might be that the second swordsman who didn't have time to report his name underestimated the enemy, probably because he was afraid that the sword would hurt the eldest young master without an eye, so his subordinates showed mercy, and as a result, he abandoned the sword and left.
Only a very few people think, perhaps, whether it is one sword or three swords, it all depends on the mood of the eldest young master?
After all, the second challenger was too arrogant, and he spoke with his nostrils turned to the sky. It's only the ninety-eighth on the Qingyun list, but it's like two hundred and five, what qualifications do you have to come to Qinglongju to show off? If you are in the top ten, won't you even take Lord Qinglong seriously?
There are many ideas, and so are actions.
There are people who come to challenge every day, some people who have been waiting for a long time and are ready to move, there are also people who come from far and wide, there are celebrities on the Qingyun list, and there are also unfamous people who are not on the list but want to be on the list.
Ye Jian did not refuse to come, faced it, and then defeated it.
or one sword, or two swords, or three swords, or more...... But at most, there are no more than ten moves.
Facts have proved that it is the truth guessed by a very small number of people: how many swords are produced really depends on the mood of the eldest young master.
The best proof is that yesterday, a low-level cultivator who purely admired Ye Jianzang's name and came to ask for advice stepped forward to challenge, his realm was really low, only in the early fourth order - this level, in the Queen Valley, at most, was a soldier in a certain big family, or the lowest level.
He said that he was a fan of Ye Jianzang and admired Ye Jianzang very much, and he said that he wanted to see Ye Jianzang's sword.
He was sincere, and he was genuine.
Ye Jian believed it, because the man had brought two swords, and he had inserted one of them first, and then pulled out the other.
So Ye Jianzang lowered his realm, lowered it to the level of the beginning of the fourth order, and then competed with that person very seriously - the record of the ten swords came from this.
The result, of course, was the defeat of that "leaf powder".
After the competition, he also begged Ye Jianzang to sign his sword before leaving. Ye Jianzang smiled and said that he was welcome to come again next time.
Everyone was happy.
As for the other swordsman who came the day before yesterday, he was treated more miserably.
This swordsman's surname is Yang, and his name is Banjiang.
He was very proud, more proud than the second swordsman before, because he was more proud of the capital than the second swordsman - because he was the tenth on the Qingyun List!
Tianji Palace is an institution established by the order of Queen Yu Wu Tang personally, dedicated to observing the new generation of masters of the human race, in order to urge the seniors to cultivate diligently and inspire the younger generations to forge ahead. Therefore, the Qingyun List promulgated by Tianji Palace can be said to be the most authoritative list among the human race, and it is a proof of strength.
This swordsman named Yang Banjiang can be ranked tenth on the list, which means that among the sixth order, there are no more than ten fingers stronger than him.
So, of course, he has the right to be proud.
Therefore, as soon as he came to the Qinglong Residence and saw Ye Jianzang, he threatened to go straight to the palace book, saying that Nangong was just a person who sold his reputation and reputation, sat on the green dragon and despised the world, the fox was fake and the dragon was mighty, and there was no one in his eyes......
As a result, before he finished speaking, Ye Jianzang only took out one sword, to be precise, half a sword - because his autumn water was still in the sword, then Yang Banjiang had already fallen.
The sword was broken on the spot, and he himself suffered a great loss of meridians, so that his realm plummeted. If there is no accident, it should not wait for the next Qingyun list to be announced, and it will be removed from the list.
In this way, there was a broken sword in front of the stele.
......
This incident caused a great sensation in Qinglong City, and it became a hot topic for a while.
Initially, it was Ye Jian who hid it, and some people said that he was too ruthless and too faceless. Let's not talk about him using a sword to stop people, let's just say that he is the tenth master of the Qingyun List, but he only has half a sword, this practice is a contempt for the Qingyun List, to put it mildly, that is disrespectful to the queen Yu Wu Tang.
After all, you Ye Jianzang is also a sixth-order, and the Qingyun List is specially designed for the sixth-order, but there is no your name on the list, and as soon as you make another move, you defeated the tenth on the Qingyun List with only half a move, what does this mean?
Isn't this a change of way to scold the Tianji Palace for its ineffective handling and scold them for being blind?
Or rather...... Is it accusing Tianji Palace of accepting bribes in disguise?
The Tianji Palace was established by the order of the Queen Yu Wu Tang herself, and if you do this, aren't you slapping the Queen in the face? Even if you are the brother of the young dean of Nangong, it is too much, right?
There are even more conspiracy theories that vaguely point out that maybe Ye Jianzang did this, but it was the young dean of Nangong who signaled it. Qinglong Academy has a great family, not only is there a large number of sages, there are many masters, but also protégés all over the world, and it has a very high reputation in the entire Hundred Clans Alliance......
So just like that, the fire began to burn on Nangong's body. To be precise, it was burned to Qinglong Academy.
At the same time, however, there are those who oppose it.
The so-called opponents are, of course, the supporters of the Blue Dragon Academy.
They supported Ye Jianzang's approach, saying that Young Dean Nangong was the heir personally designated by Lord Fu Qinglong, and he was the next generation of Nangong Qinglong, and every move represented the will of Qinglong Academy. Such a character, how can ordinary cats and dogs see what they want?
If any cat or dog can say that they can see each other, then wouldn't the young dean be very busy? so busy that he didn't even have to eat? Young Master Ye blocked this part of the people for him, it was a brotherhood, and it was reasonable.
As for Yang Banjiang you are talking about?
That's even more ridiculous!
Qinglong has never interfered in the disputes of the world, so Qinglong never needs to be blamed by outsiders for his actions. If you have to accuse, then be prepared to be slapped in the face, like that Yang Banjiang......
The so-called first flirtatious is cheap, and there is no resentment when he is killed. Young Master Ye just broke your sword, but did not break your person, he had already given face to the Tianji Palace.
Moreover, the eldest young master's swordsmanship is so exquisite, but he is not on the list, so Tianji Palace should introspect on its lack of ability to do things, instead of blaming the eldest young master for being too strong. Otherwise, what was the original intention of the establishment of the Qingyun List? If this is the case, wouldn't it make the hearts of cultivators all over the world chill?
As for those conspiracy theories......
As everyone knows, Queen Yu Wutang and Qinglong are close friends, Qinglong Academy is a monument of the human race in the alliance of hundred races, and it is the glory of the human race.
......
......
For a time, the opposition and the supporters held their own opinions, and the voices of controversy were loud for a while.
But the strange thing is that neither the Blue Dragon Academy nor the mountain behind the academy have made any statements about this. Young Dean Nangong is still closed, the closed door is still boiling, and the swords in front of the stele are still increasing.
Half a month later, the front of the stele was already full of all kinds of swords, and if you look at it from the back of the stele, it looks more like a mound.
Sword Shrine.
Half a month and half a month...... It wasn't until three months later that the sword mound slowly disappeared.
Instead, there is an extra scenery in front of the Qinglong residence.
It was a sword pool.
People call it the Boundary Sword Pool.
The boundary is the boundary that Ye Jianzang drew at the beginning.
The sword pond is a pool dug with swords - because there are too many people who have fallen, there are too many swords that have fallen. Yes, because the ground there is too soft, so you insert it and I insert it, and the weight of the sword itself is added, as a result, the terrain there slowly sinks, so gradually, a pool is formed.
There is another saying for the sword pool: the sword pool.
This means that if you want to pass by, you must first untie your sword.
It's very graphic and vivid.
But when he thought about it at a deeper level, he couldn't help but think about it and be extremely frightened - because in the past three months, Ye Jianzang had never been defeated.
This is shocking and unacceptable.
There is no shortage of geniuses in the Valley of the Queens, let alone kendo masters, and the challenges of leapfrogging, which are extremely rare in other places, have always been commonplace in the Valley of the Queens. But now, this bowl of rice seems to be a little unbearable.
Because just yesterday, the fifth "Twilight Cloud Sword" on the Qingyun List, Yun Zhong Twilight, was also defeated.
Defeated by Ye Jianzang's sword.
Three tricks.
Yun Zhongdui was not an ordinary cultivator, he was an out-and-out seventh-order. Just last year, on a late cloud harvest and the day when the blue sun fell, he looked at the clouds and felt it, condensed his twilight cloud realm, and since then he has stepped into the seventh order and become a strong man on the famous side.
In fact, if it weren't for the fact that the day had not yet come to change the list, today's Yunzhong Twilight would be in a higher level of "Biluo List", not the Qingyun List.
In fact, when Yun Zhongdui was still in the middle of the sixth order, the seventh order that was defeated in his hands was no less than five fingers.
In fact, although people couldn't believe it, such a cloud twilight was indeed defeated by Ye Jianzang's sword. And his Twilight Cloud Sword is now inserted in the very center of the Boundary Sword Pool, which is also the highest place.
The sunlight reflected on the sword, shining a hazy luster like a cloud, looming, as dark as obscure. The sword has a spirit, and between light and darkness, it seems to be issuing an unwilling cry, and it seems to be summoning more companions.
He looked at his sword, and then accepted the reality very calmly, and bowed to Ye Jianzang: "The sword of living in the mountains and rivers really lives up to its reputation! When Uncle Ling walked in the world, I was born a few years later and failed to catch up, so it was a lifelong regret." But now that I have met Brother Ye, I think about it, but I should feel lucky. ”
Why are you glad?
I am glad to be born late, and I am glad to see you.
I'm glad I was born a few years late, and I'm glad I didn't meet the heavenly sword of the year, and I didn't meet the sunset of the year...... All of this is because I met you now.
You are his nephew, he is your uncle, your sword, his mountains and his waters.
You are all from the same source.
Now I am not as good as you, so in the past, I was even worse than him.
So I'm glad that otherwise, I'm afraid I would have lost the courage to enter kendo.
Ye Jianzang understood the meaning of Yun Zhongdu's words, but he was very dissatisfied with this statement. So he patted Yun Zhongdu's shoulder and said solemnly, "Actually, you should be glad that you met me today, not five years later." ”
Yunzhong Twilight was stunned for a moment when she heard this, and then she sweated profusely.
Ye Xizhao, who was born out of nowhere, was already twenty and five years old when he swept the world with a sword, but Ye Jianzang in front of him was only twenty years old.
is only twenty years old, and his kendo cultivation is no longer inferior to Ye Xizhao, who was twenty-five years old, so in another five years, when he is twenty-five years old, what will his sword go to?
If I met him at that time, how many swords, three swords, and two swords could I take him?
Still is...... He didn't need to draw his sword at all, and he had already lost?
In the face of such an opponent, do you still have the strength to hold the sword? It's like facing the endless sea, how dare ants dare to cross it?
Twilight in the clouds bowed deeply, no longer glancing at the twilight sword in the Boundary Sword Pool, and then turned to leave.
It was only then that the shocked people remembered the fear of being dominated by that sword.
It was a disaster for kendo.
More than 20 years ago, a young man from the Lost Continent suddenly appeared, and with two swords, one light and one heavy, turned into a violent wind, sweeping through the entire Drifting Island Group.
It was an era of blooming flowers and bright stars, and countless young and strong men emerged on the drifting islands, and hundreds of schools of thought contended, and the scenery was unparalleled for a while. But when the young man appeared, all the flowers withered, and all the stars were dimmed.
Because he had two swords in one person, he swept across the entire island.
Queen Gu Qingyun is the first on the list, defeated with one sword, and Biluo is the first on the list, and is also defeated with one sword.
At that time, it was recognized that the sword genius who was most likely to slay demons with a sword and step into the realm of the eighth-order "half-saint", after meeting this young man, suddenly abandoned his sword and cultivated his rod overnight.
Because this young man is named Ye Xizhao, and because of the genius of the half-step "half-saint", his sword happens to be called the Shanshui Sword.
He said that his sword had committed his taboo!
He said that his name is not worthy of the name "Shanshui"!
So he sharpened his sword into a club...... It's short, it's thin, and it looks like a teaching stick.
He said, "Don't practice swords in the future, practice sticks," and then taught him a set of stick techniques......
Since then, there has been one less landscape sword and one more teaching stick on the drifting islands. This stick teaches people what is the real sword, what is the real mountain and water.
Some people were not convinced, so they attacked it in groups.
So the young man fought the world with a sword, and all who came were killed.
The sunset and clouds brought not the colorful glow, but the sky will fall into the night haze, and since then, ten thousand swords have lost their color.
People don't know why this young man named Ye Xizhao is so sensitive to the word "landscape", but they all know that they can't afford to provoke this evil star, and they really can't afford to provoke it. They are all afraid that one day they will be approached by this evil star, and then they will say: "Your name has violated my taboo, suffer death!"
So all the names on the islands with mountains and rivers, and even with swords by the mountains and waters, have changed their names or abandoned them. All the swordsmen with sunset and sunset, even the day, have gone incognito or changed their names.
The so-called rigidity is easy to break, prosperity is easy to decline, people are thinking, this young swordsman is so arrogant, there will be someone to accept it one day!
However, the performance of the young swordsman disappointed everyone.
No one took him, and no one could take him.
Maybe the only one who can take him in is himself.
After sweeping through the Terrans, he seemed to have had enough, and seemed to be tired of playing, and felt that these so-called "swordsmen" were no different, so he automatically ran to the territory of other races.
The world is so big, of course, it is not only the human race that practices swords, but also well-known kendo masters of other races.
No matter how authoritative the Qingyun List and Biluo List are, it is limited to the human race. The most authoritative list in the world is published by the Alliance of Hundred Nationalities - the first list in the world.
There are three thousand Taos, and first, of course, there are three thousand.
There are the first way of the sword, the first way of the technique, the first way of the instrument, the first way of the Dan, the first way of the law, the first way of the runes, etc., and of course, there will also be the first way of the sword.
However, a year later, the person who had remained unchanged for the 100th year of the sword path, the sword saint Wuji of the Gaoshan clan, suddenly announced a retreat.
It's a dead end.
The so-called dead pass is a pass that may be closed until death and will not come out.
No one knows the process, and no one knows why.
But the interesting thing is that when the young swordsman returned to the Terrans, and then left the Drifting Islands in a grand manner under the gaze of the whole world, the Sword Master Wuji suddenly came out of the level.
Since then, the sun has finally set, and the stars have shone brightly. (To be continued.) )
