The inner courtyard of Luoyang Academy, Zhongxing Pavilion.

As with the usual thriving atmosphere, it seems that the place has not been affected by the events of this month.

In the main hall of the pavilion, in front of the statue of the sons, Yang Biao stood with his hands in his hands, and there were two other figures standing behind him, the old man in front of him was wearing the old robe of the Hongnong Yang clan, holding an iron crutch in his hand, and his expression was slightly solemn.

The latter man was a burly man, in his early twenties, with a chic and unstoppable look, his eyes like bright stars in the sky, and the light was as clear as substance.

Even if you look closely, the golden sun shines in his left eye, and the silver moon shines in his right eye, which is the first dragon and tiger today, and the sun and moon are the same day.

At this moment, the three of the Yang family gathered and were discussing the next policy of action in the court, and now that the Yuan family is powerful, they also have to make some adjustments.

"Master."

Then, a voice sounded, and someone came.

The three of them turned around and saw a tall young man approaching him, dressed in purple and green shirts, with a high crown and tied hair, carrying a black wooden box, standing proudly, calmly scanning everyone present.

Inexplicably, the three of them felt that he had an extraordinary look, his eyes were as deep as the sea before a rainstorm, and there was a glass gold lamp shining and burning inside, with a golden swastika, which made people dare not give birth to contempt.

"Shanhe, it's good to come back, I've heard about the underground palace, if you dare to make a move on you, you will have to pay the price, at least destroy his stronghold in one state." Yang Biao's expression remained unchanged, he bowed slightly, his gaze swept over Xiang Ji's body, and he felt a powerful power that surpassed the previous one.

Thinking of today's boiling rumors, this student has obtained the Buddha soldier and a divine palm, which is already an amazing creation, and he has defeated the masters one after another, and has become famous by overpowering the Thunder Gong, achieving the top 50 level of the Dragon and Tiger.

Buddha Lantern Day Leader·· Yang Gaizhi and the clan elder glanced at each other, and already understood in their hearts the identity of the person who came, it was the person who had become famous recently, with Buddhist soldiers and divine palms, and it was difficult not to notice it.

What's more, that day, Liu Kang even used the long-lost fourth blow of the purple thunder, and the winter thunderbolt was defeated by the Buddha King Qiankun, and ended in defeat, fulfilling the name of Xiang Ji.

Xiang Ji saluted, and then looked at the two people on the side, "Master, who are these two?" ”

"Under Yang Blame." "Hongnong Yang Wang."

There is no need for Yang Biao to introduce, the two directly reported to their homes, which surprised Xiang Ji, it was actually Yang Gaizhi in person?

Although he has lost to Yuan Ji now, his strength is shocking, and he is under one person and above ten thousand.

"Shanhe, you did a good job in this battle of divine palms, very good... The next capital will be the center of the wind and rain, after the Yuan family and the Yang family are in the fight, those eunuchs will seize the opportunity to make waves, if you want to enter the temple, it will not be a good choice at the moment, but there is another way to stay away from the strife in the imperial city. ”

Yang Biao slightly approved, as if he had something on his mind, and mentioned the next ups and downs in the imperial city.

When Chaotianzi's attitude was very vague, but sometimes, the actions of the Ten Standing Servants were his will, and he didn't want to see the family monolithic, and the more divided the more hostile the better.

"It's a pity that this opportunity came late, if there was a practice like the Divine Palm in the past, it would not be a loss in the Supreme Gong if you changed it." Yang Wang sighed lightly, still haunted by the previous battle.

In fact, in their opinion, the two sides were indeed evenly matched, and they even fought for several hours without winning or losing, until Yuan Ji used the killing move of the God and Demon-level Martial Arts, the Supreme Skill of Heaven and Earth, and the Earth Shaking Mountains and Mountains to Shake the Five Mountains.

Although the Yang family's peerless art is powerful, it has only evolved from some chapters of god and demon martial arts, and it will naturally suffer compared with the real god and demon killing moves.

Hearing this, Yang Biao frowned slightly, and Yang Gaizhi shook his head, "Clan Elder, that's someone else's chance, not my Yang blame, besides, it's just a failure, I haven't been discouraged, do you want to give up in turn?" He Yuan Ji can have the opportunity of gods and demons martial arts, and my luck is no less than him, and he will have it.

Mountains and rivers, come, we young people stay here and are bored, you come with me to practice martial arts, and pass on some of your moves. ”

After speaking, he patted Xiang Ji's shoulder as if he was aware of it, and motioned for him to follow him.

"Brother Yang?" Xiang Ji was stunned and looked at his teacher, but saw Yang Biao nodding and motioning for Xiang Ji to go with him, and also acquiesced in Yang Gaizhi's attitude towards his transmission.

This is the teaching of Hongnong Yang, not the teaching of Jing Zhaoyin, and the meaning is not the same.

"You should have some understanding of the thoughts in the clan, as always, two sets of methods have been prepared, if he is willing to teach the divine palm, he can marry the daughter of the clan and him, and absorb him as the main line of the Yang family in one step; If he is unwilling to teach the Divine Palm, he maintains the status quo, occasionally shows goodwill, matches the marriage between the next woman and him, and can ask him to borrow Buddhist soldiers when needed, but the status is fixed on the branch; Now that you're his teacher, we old fellows want to know your attitude. ”

After they left, the clan elder Yang Wangfang spoke out quietly and explained the purpose of this visit.

It would be unrealistic to say that Yang had no idea about the Buddha Soldier Divine Palm.

It's just that something was delayed before, and now I suddenly find that the person who gets it is my own family, how can I not have a heart? It's all human nature, even if those in power don't have distractions, what about the rest of the clan and other groups?

The disputes of interests within an ethnic group are as complex and involve as many as a small temple.

Yang Biao's expression was calm, and from the day he got the news, he had a plan in his heart, so he shook his head and said, "Clan Elder, you know, I don't like to make choices when I urinate, my father is old, and I am already the master of the dust, so I want them all."

As my student, whether he wants to teach the Divine Palm or not, his talents and roots are worthy of being cultivated, and those individuals in the clan who have thoughts about the Buddha Soldiers and the Divine Palm can be stopped. ”

Obviously, he didn't intend to give in, and he didn't want Xiang Ji to suffer, the academy and the clan were both hand-holding, and he already had the idea of inheriting his father's position.

The first step in doing so is to establish one's own authority.

"Yes, you have now reached your father's level, and you should have your own team, no matter how you choose, we will support, even so, the clan will begin to absorb Kunpengzi, and he will also be included in the Yang family's lineage to give support, but his grassroots identity is somewhat influential, it is best to start from the army, although we are powerful in the civil officials of the Shi clan, but there should also be a person of sufficient weight in the army, such as the Yuan family, their hands have been stretched out to the Tiger Ben Forbidden Army."

Facing Yang Biao, who clearly expressed his will, Yang Wang was not surprised, but smiled with relief and said no more.

On the other side, inside the martial arts hall.

Xiang Ji and Yang Gaizhi stood opposite each other, and they wanted to make a move.

"I'm going to ask for advice." Xiang Ji raised his hand and shook it, his spirit condensed the soldiers, and turned into a mouthful of silver-white thunder halberd, and he was already waving the halberd in front of his steps, and the dark luck Sanyang knife method was split, and a red glow suddenly swung out from the halberd blade, like the sun shining in the sky in all directions, and the power of thunder and fire surged into a wave and slapped over.

Yang Gaizhi's momentum was condensed, his negative hands stood in place, his breathing became heavy in an instant, and every time he exhaled out, it was like a flat thunderbolt, turning into a wave of air shock, causing Xiang Ji's fire wave and thunder to appear disordered and constantly disintegrate, and every time he inhaled, he formed a cyclone like a whirlpool to pull Xiang Ji's body, trying to disrupt his steps.

This is the Yang Clan's peerless learning, the six Ten Thousand Elements of the Wind and Cloud and the immeasurable evolution of the Four Directions Tiangang Qi, which melts into the breath, and every move has its own heaven and earth wind and clouds, and the endless natural qi is combined.

"Qigong? It's so deep and true. Xiang Ji's heart moved, this should be a qigong martial arts, the best at suppressing people with power, Yang Gaizhi's true qi is even deeper than the Northern Netherworld Elder he has ever seen!

One blow did not make meritorious service, he immediately changed the move, away from the fire Xuanbing Gong and carried away Zhou Tian, a huge hexagram phantom appeared around, the vibration hexagram thunder, the departure hexagram rushed to the fire, the Kun hexagram thick earth, the Kan hexagram water, the four forces turned into a hexagram and directly surrounded Yang Gaizhi.

"Good ideas, good moves, integrate different internal forces into the Yi Shu to dominate, you really didn't disappoint Uncle Wen Xian." Yang Gaizhi smiled, and his eyes shot out the true qi of the sun and the moon in gold and silver.

What? Xiang Ji was surprised, the eyes were one of the weakest parts of the human body, and they could shoot true qi from them? What kind of means is this?

This is not over, the next moment, Yang Gaizhi stomped on the ground in one step, his nostrils, ears, mouth, and countless large and small points around his body all had true qi spraying thin, or hot as the sun or cold as the moon, or rigid or soft, overwhelmingly slashing towards the hexagrams around the Quartet.

His whole person became illusory, as if he had turned into a phaseless Zen realm, carrying the sun and the moon in the same heaven and earth, constantly drawing the power of nature to join, causing the true qi to shoot out endlessly.

For a while, Xiang Ji only felt that the true qi of the sun and the moon covered the void, and it was really vast, with no heaven above and no earth below, everything was wrapped in the 'phaseless' Zen realm.

There is no self and there is no phase, and there is no external object, so all external things can be for me, and heaven and earth are also used by me, which is one of Yang's Yang mastery, no self and no phase.

However, this kind of power is not strangling Xiang Ji, but it is pulling his strength, driving him to play a style of knife moves, pointing at the weak points in it, and helping him improve his combat methods.

The scenery seen in different realms is naturally different, for masters of the same level, Xiang Ji's moves are naturally impeccable, but for the strong beyond this realm, there are weaknesses in other aspects.

Under such guidance and traction, Xiang Ji dispersed the halberd to condense the thunder knife, swaying freely, the Sanyang knife technique and the self-created two-style knife moves emerged one by one, and each part of the long knife such as the handle, the back of the knife, the blade, and the tip of the knife seemed to come to life, changing freely, and reaching a happy situation.

One knife was faster than another, and at the end, the Fourth Style: Winter Thunder Thunderbolt came into being, and all his thoughts and imitations over the past few days were integrated into it, turning into a series of sword shadows falling from the sky and slashing in all directions, condensing a silver-white sword qi that was ten zhang away.

"Purple Thunder Seven Strikes? You learned this knife technique from Liu Kang? Yang Gaizhi was slightly stunned, and then reacted very quickly to the thought in his heart, winked at Xiang Ji, and determined that this knife technique was learned.

With a sigh of relief in his heart, Xiang Ji naturally went to the road and followed his head, "What Brother Yang said is exact, Liu Kang used this trick that day, and I have been thinking about it, and I have seen Liu Chou's knife technique before, so I copied one or two." ”

"It doesn't matter what your identity was, if you really want to check, it's actually hard to hide, but it doesn't matter what the past is, it's true to live well in this life." Yang Gaizhi laughed, open-minded by nature, and was very open to all kinds of worldly things.

Although he lost to Yuan Ji that day, he also succeeded in letting him throw away a lot of burdens and unload his shackles, and now he is also willing to instruct Xiang Ji, so he taught him the Wuxiang True Body operation route he used before.

"There is no real body, through the mystery of this trick, the heavenly thunder in my body can also be triggered without scruples."

Xiang Ji gave birth to enlightenment, Yang Gaizhi passed on him today is one of the styles, selfless and formless, this is a method of using internal strength and edge, you can break out of the body, hit the enemy by surprise, whether it is the edge of the sword or others, it can be so, it is a universal means.

Gradually, two hours passed, the sun was setting, with the roots of the pride of the sky, Xiang Ji had already mastered the use of the true body of the faceless, and with a light snort, seven silver thunderbolts shot out from the seven orifices of the eyes, ears, mouth, nose, and nose, which were fierce.

If this is used in a face-to-face encounter, it is a surprising killer move, just like no one will be wary of you sneezing and spitting in a fight, as long as you have not seen it, it is a kind of 'blind spot' of thinking.

"Your talent is even more terrifying than we thought, far from being something that Puyu Tiancheng can describe, such a qualification should be the legendary pride of the sky, how could the family ignore such an important matter."

Yang Gai's heart was shocked, and he looked at Xiang Ji carefully, the root bone qualification can't be faked, and that kind of spiritual feeling can be seen at a glance, and the dragon and phoenix in the human world can't be hidden.

At the same time, he was also a little dissatisfied with the family's decision, such qualified characters should be vigorously cultivated and wooed, and let the clan marry as soon as possible, is it not important to wait for others to dig the wall?

As soon as he thought of this, he couldn't help but get a little closer to Xiang Ji.

Even faintly, Yang Gaizhi felt that maybe in the future, this young man could replace himself and fight with Yuan Ji again.

In the martial arts arena, the two young people exchanged martial arts, talked about the thirteen states in the world, and the distance was a little closer, like two friends, talking about everything, until the red glow sunset, the earth fire was bright, and a bright moon rose high in the sky, and the whole sky was dark, revealing a starry sky overnight, which was magnificent.

Fighting, bulls, women, void, danger, room and other stars across the sky, the pavilion under the moonlit night, adding gentleness.

The two of them lay on their backs on the grass in disregard of etiquette, looking up at the starry sky, intoxicated by the magnificent scenery.

Xiang Ji concentrated on his mind, feeling that he had become the center of Kuisu, the essence of the sky ran down from the top, and the essence of the earth went straight up from the Du vein, intersecting in the Zhou Tian operation of the two veins of Ren Du.

All of a sudden, every bit of life in the surrounding miles, flowers and trees, also had a sense of self.

How precious life is in these moments.

Xiang Ji suddenly had a realization that when everything became a part of daily life, there would be no such touching moments.

Like a burning candle that will eventually be extinguished, just as winter will be replaced by spring, is this the truth of heaven and earth?

There is no eternity.

"Eternity? Whether such a thing really exists in the world, I want to know. ”

Xiang Ji looked up at the sky, the martial arts he had been looking for were exhausted, so that his body and mind were unfettered and accessible, and what he was pursuing was this unfathomable eternal realm?

Perhaps, he did not know; Or maybe tonight, he knows better.

Becoming stronger is not a reason, let alone a goal; It was the necessary way to realize his ideals, and what he wanted to know was whether there would be true eternity in the world, and even to bring himself to that level.

The goal of a finite life is unlimited.

"Three years of life, enough

Is it? ”

Xiang Ji sighed lightly, inexplicably thinking of Sima Zheng, the senior brother of the Northern Underworld, he had little longevity left, if he was in a bleak situation like him, would he not use the Heavenly Demon Skill to increase his lifespan?

Nothing was said all night.

When I opened my eyes again, the sun rose in the east and the earth was golden.

"It's time to go and see how they're doing."

Xiang Ji got up, Yang Gaizhi had already left, the sky was orange and red, and the mountains and rivers were magnificent.

He got up and was about to leave, just as he saw a letter left by Yang Biao, informing him of the next arrangement, to make a military merit, and a year later, he would march to the land of Liangzhou, and the court would operate in the court, and there should be a dispatch appointment for him.

I didn't expect to be in the army so soon... Xiang Ji felt quite subtle in his heart, and there seemed to be some fierce people in Liangzhou at the moment, and a certain strongman who could shoot left and right was also preparing ambitiously.

Walking out of Zhongxing Pavilion, Xiang Ji went all the way to Chengfeng Ju, and met a caravan on the way, which was actually from the Western Regions outside the Saiwai, and the dress was quite eye-catching.

His gaze swept over and saw a young girl in the team looking back, her complexion was white and red, her nose was high and her eyes were deep, full of exotic style, and she smiled slightly, revealing a row of snow-white teeth.

A woman from a caravan from outside Cyprus? Xiang Ji didn't care, he just felt that the weather was changing very strangely.

The sky was still clear, but now it suddenly turned into a long sky of black clouds and rushed away, and the ground was dark and dark.

The wind that precedes the storm kicks up the long street with dust.

In front of the wind, there were two figures standing, which attracted Xiang Ji's attention.

The first person looked majestic, dressed luxuriously, and had a momentum of giving orders, and a person behind him was fully armed and had a calm bearing, so that people knew that he was a master at a glance.

"I've seen mountains and rivers catching heads, I've been waiting for a long time since I came from Yuan's mansion."

Seeing Xiang Ji coming, the two of them suddenly smiled, bowed and leaned over.

Yuan Shao's manpower? As soon as he heard Xiang Ji, he knew where they came from, but what did Yuan Shao come to him to do at this time?

It is obviously impossible to do it just for the previous Buddha Palace.

"This time I came, there are two things, one is that the purple ribbon of the brother Tai has arrived, and a certain also belongs to the Dragon Guardian Villa, so it was brought by the brother; The second is that the original son was invited before, and I hope that at the beginning of September, I would like you to meet again with a group of junjie, and it is still Tori Villa, ending the previous sunflower matter. ”

As he spoke, the envoy of the Yuan Mansion sent a purple and shining seal, only the size of a fist, but it was thick and extraordinary, and only two big characters were engraved on the bottom: Protecting Han.

"Purple Ribbon Headcatcher?"

Xiang Ji was surprised that his current strength had not yet reached the level of the fifth level, but he had already obtained the official seal of the purple ribbon in advance, which also meant that he could read the other complete twenty-eight sequences, and he had no less power than the county order.

But then, the meaning revealed by the words of the envoy of the Yuan Mansion made his expression change subtly.

Knowing about the previous sunflower incident, isn't that the assassination of the disaster elimination building by the eunuch, Yuan Shao is preparing to take revenge on the eunuch?

But such an opportunity may not be easy, unless the other party himself reveals his flaws, what plan does Yuan Shao have?
