Chapter 18 Visiting the Martial Arts
Walked hundreds of steps on the mountain road in the woods, suddenly saw a nine-story building, fixed eyes, the building sign clearly wrote "Tibetan Scripture Pavilion" three big characters. The Pavilion is built on the side of the mountain road, and the attic stands on top of the steps within a radius of dozens of steps. It was previously obscured by the woods, making it difficult to see.
The door of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion is wide open, and you can see someone inside from the outside to read and find the scriptures, and there are special guards inside the door.
Wu Youdao and Chouchou wanted to get closer and take a closer look, but they were blocked by a mysterious force at the edge of the steps. The caretaker outside the Scripture Pavilion glanced over, but didn't say anything more. But Wu Youdao and Chouchou were quite shocked, and they didn't dare to approach recklessly.
Yan Nantian's eyesight is amazing, he doesn't have to get close to see the situation inside and around the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, just now he found the strange situation that Wu Youdao and the ugly two could not climb the steps, and saw the two turn around.
He smiled and said, "But you can't climb the steps?"
Without waiting for the two of them to reply, Yan Nantian had already continued: "In addition to being guarded by a special person to control a heavy place like the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, there is generally a formation to support it. It is impossible to enter it without special identification. ”
Wu Youdao was also experiencing the existence of the formation for the first time, and couldn't help but say:
"This formation is really magical, and I will have to learn a few more if I have the opportunity in the future. ”
Ugly and ugly made a look of annoyance, and scolded: "Brother Yan is so bad, he deliberately tricked the two of us, knew that there was a formation, and deliberately made us ugly." ”
Yan Nantian smiled: "I didn't know it before, but I woke up after seeing you two blocked." ”
Then continue up the hill and pass through several pavilions before reaching the top of the mountain. But I saw a nine-story hexagonal black tower standing on the top of the hill platform, and the tower door was closed.
A hundred steps away in front of the tower, there is another tall statue.
The three of them came to the statue and looked up.
But seeing the statue looking down, with kindness and affection in the majesty of the gods, it seems that it has the power of transcendent life, and wants to break the boundary, but there is still a little reluctant look.
"Who is this statue, does Brother Yan know?"
Wu Youdao felt that the person sculpted by this statue should be a very powerful man, and asked:
"It can't be the mansion master of Yingshui Martial Mansion, right?"
"No, it should be Emperor Xuanyuan, the founding patriarch of the Tsinghua Sword Sect. ”
Yan Nantian really lived up to his reputation for being well-informed, at least in Wu Youdao's heart.
If you don't know, ask Brother Yan, yes.
"The Tsinghua Sword Sect was founded by Emperor Xuanyuan. It is said that before the establishment of the Tsinghua Sword Sect, the Demon Dao in Tsinghua was powerful, the strong did whatever they wanted, and the weak had no room to survive. Killings are everywhere and there is no morality to speak of. Thousands of miles of land, white bones everywhere. ”
"Emperor Xuanyuan felt it in his heart, rose from the micro end, became stronger and stronger the more he fought, and finally pacified the demons and established the Tsinghua Sword Sect in Qinghua. Legend has it that in the end, after 10,000 years of the great emperor's achievement of the heavenly rank, he had broken through the boundary and left in order to pursue a new path of martial arts. ”
Yan Nantian's face was serious, and the color of his reverence and worship was beyond words.
After listening to his introduction, Wu Youdao and the ugly two were also full of admiration.
At this moment, I have a little more sense of identity with the Tsinghua Sword Sect, and I imagine that I will worship it in the future, and I can be regarded as the disciple and grandson of Emperor Xuanyuan.
He looked at the statue again, and his heart couldn't help but feel reverence and admiration.
After visiting the statue of Emperor Xuanyuan, the three of them came to the bottom of the bell tower, but they did not see anything unusual around it. The tower door is highly locked, and it is not allowed to enter the door. Although Yan Nantian is a master of the Nine Turns, he can climb to the top of the tower with a single jump, but it is not good to act so recklessly.
I went around under the bell tower and found nothing new.
At this time, it was already in the middle of the day, and I should have looked for a place to eat, but there was no one everywhere, so I had to forcibly endure it. Fortunately, the three of them are all martial artists, and it is common to endure hunger, not to mention a meal, even if they don't eat for a few days, it is not unbearable, especially Yan Nantian.
True Qi Realm martial artists still have to eat three meals a day if they are allowed. When you reach the real level, you have already broken through the heavens and the earth, and you have a little ability to open the valley, if it is not necessary, it should be one meal a day. When you enter the ground level, your divine consciousness communicates with heaven and earth, and you have the ability to completely open the valley, and you don't need to eat or not depending on your interest. As for the Heavenly Steps, it is the existence of the Dao Leader and the Dao, and ordinary people are already unfathomable to it.
After looking at the bell tower, the three of them began to descend the mountain from the other side.
This time I walked much faster, and I came to the bottom of the mountain in half an hour. Passing through a forest, there is an open field at the exit.
In the middle of this open space is a nine-story tower.
Tower Name: Trial.
At the entrance under the tower, there are students entering and leaving from time to time.
Seeing this name, the three of them knew that it was the place where the martial arts students were tested.
This time, Wu Youdao and Chouchou didn't dare to rush inside rashly, and only looked curiously outside. After looking bored for a while, he looked elsewhere for other new places.
However, I saw a bulletin board in the distance ahead, and many students stopped to watch under it.
"Let's go and see. ”
Yan Nantian took the lead after speaking, and Wu Youdao and the ugly two accompanied him. When I looked closer, I realized that it was the Trials Leaderboard. There are people standing on both sides of the billboard, and their rankings change from time to time. Wu Youdao quickly guessed that this bulletin board had also been refined with a formation.
The billboard is on the side where the three people are, and there are two names on the left and right, namely the "Top 100 List" on the left and the "Thousand Heroes List" on the right. The name under the top 100 list is much bigger than the name of the Qianjie list, and it is also much brighter.
Wu Youdao looked at the first place in the top 100 list - Rao Zhen.
This is followed by an introduction.
Rao Zhen. Senior student of Wufu, age thirty-eight, nine turns of true qi, eight stars of water spirit root, good understanding, good will. The Tower of Trials reaches the seventh floor. Comment: He is a real genius, he can win by leapfrogging battles, and he can be recommended to become a disciple of the Sword Sect.
"Brother Yan, look at this first place, it looks very strong. ”
Wu Youdao said to Yan Nantian: "The comment in the back says that you can be recommended to become a disciple of the Sword Sect, it should refer to the Tsinghua Sword Sect." ”
Since learning that Yan Nantian had mastered the sword intent, Wu Youdao knew that he should be almost the strongest under the human rank, although this Rao Zhen is indeed powerful, but he is still very inferior to Yan Nantian. In Yan Nantian's own words, he has "peerless assets".
Thinking about it, with Yan Nantian's combat power, it is estimated that he should be able to reach the ninth layer of the Trial Tower.
Yan Nantian also took a look at it casually, after all, for him, the Martial Mansion was just a step, and he believed that he would soon leave here and enter the Qinghua Sword Sect.
Wu Youdao turned his head and explained the information on the list to Chouchou.
Chouchou is still illiterate, and when he signed up, Yang Jia also specifically mentioned that Chouchou should master the ability to read and write as soon as possible after entering the Wufu.
After reading the introduction of the first place, the three of them were no longer interested in continuing to watch. When I walked to the other side of the billboard, I found that it was still a ranking list, but the name was called: 10,000 people list. This 10,000-person list is ranked from the 101st to the 10,000th place, and like the 10000 list, there is only the rank and name of the person and the number of the student, and there is no corresponding introduction. The words on it were much smaller and no longer shiny.
The three of them walked away again, and when they looked around, they saw that except for this empty place, they were surrounded by dense building compounds. At the entrance of the courtyard of the building, there are people coming in and out, and the place where the clothes are hung is thought to be where the students live, and the building without clothes should be the place where the exercises and skills are practiced.
Seeing that there was nothing else to do with it, the three of them decided to leave Wufu, and after looking for someone to ask about the journey, they went back.
