Text Chapter 6: Xuanqing Jade

Legend has it that when the heavens and the earth first opened, the way of heaven was not completed, and the avenue was first born, and a piece of nameless jade was conceived in it. No one knows its origin, only that there is a scripture on the jade bi, which is called "Wuji Sutra" and is also known as the Great Dao Sutra.

It is said that it is a scripture, but it cannot be said that it is a text, more precisely, the scripture is composed of runes, a total of 9,999 runes. Although it is only a few thousand words, each word contains infinite mysteries, and being able to understand one of them can be used endlessly for a lifetime.

There are even rumors that all the supreme ways and truths in heaven and earth are contained in this Great Dao Sutra, and all things in heaven and earth are all-encompassing and all-inclusive. So much so that later, all ethnic groups comprehended the Great Dao and obtained the Dharma, all of which benefited from this mysterious Great Dao Sutra.

And many great powers appeared in ancient times, and it was also under great opportunity that I was able to witness this scripture with my own eyes. And whether it is the demon race, the demon race, the witch race, or the human race, the magic tricks and cultivation methods passed down from ancient times, most of them are understood by their respective ancestors from this Great Dao Sutra.

Those powerful, subtle secret methods. Merit may originate from a certain word or part of a certain scripture. It's just that this scripture is strange in that although it is the same word, different people may see it and perceive it with different meanings, or even diametrically opposite.

The book vanished without a trace after the primeval tribulation, as if it had never appeared, and it was unknown where it began or ended.

And this piece of Xuanqing jade, according to legend, originated from the last appearance of the mysterious scriptures 7,000 years ago. At that time, the ancient power that crisscrossed the universe and changed the color of heaven and earth with a raise of his hand had long since disappeared, and the entire cultivation realm was in a relatively stable era, with all ethnic groups living together under the same sky.

It is said that when the scriptures were in existence, a few people had seen the scriptures on the jade bi with their own eyes, so many unparalleled and peerless geniuses emerged in that era, and many unfathomable Dharma decisions were born.

And the Xuanqing jade left by the Heavenly Dao Sect is not the original mysterious jade, but the Dao rhyme left by a person named Xuanqingzi. When Tianshu first appeared, Xuan Qingzi was one of the few people who saw it with his own eyes, and because of this, he gained a trace of enlightenment and stood out from many geniuses.

This piece of Xuanqing jade is also a piece of heaven and earth treasure that he inadvertently obtained in ten thousand years, and he knows very well that the Book of Heaven is mysterious and unpredictable, and there is no traceability. But he didn't want the Dao meaning he felt in the Book of Heaven to be lost, so he condensed his life's work into a Dao rhyme and engraved it on the jade bi before he ascended.

Therefore, in a way, although this piece of Xuanqing jade is not as good as the scriptures recorded in the real Book of Heaven, it is also born from the Book of Heaven, so countless cultivators all dream of coming to watch it.

It's just that the scriptures on this Xuanqing jade are difficult to understand, and if you don't follow the law, it will be harmful to yourself. Therefore, even the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect are qualified to see the Xuanqing Jade Bi, and there are very few of them.

The disciples of the various peaks, who were already excited, were even more excited when they heard the news, and almost all of them were ready to go all out.

This time, the number of participants is almost three times higher than seven years ago, because there is also an age limit, and you must be at least 14 years old. Therefore, the disciples of the Heavenly Dao Sect who were not qualified to compete seven years ago have reached the standard of age seven years later.

Due to the large number of players, this time the event was changed and was divided into three rounds. The first round is a competition within each peak, and this round of competition selects the seven best disciples of each peak.

The seven disciples selected were directly compared with the disciples of the rest of the peaks in front of Zixiao Palace, and then seven outstanding disciples were determined, and the third round was more special, it was a challenge competition.

Considering that none of the seven disciples who might be selected in the first two rounds of the competition had competed, it was impossible to determine the ranking, so this challenge was set to determine the ranking fairly. Of course, if you feel that you have lost more wrongly before, you can also challenge the winner in this round.

As soon as Xuan Ming said the format of the competition, many people invariably looked at Luo Tuofeng's seat. Not to mention that they only had three disciples in the first place, even if all three of them participated, there were less than seven people, not to mention that Yi Yun had not yet participated.

This also means that Hao Dayong and Zhu Hou don't need to compete at all, and directly enter the second round. Therefore, many people looked at both of them with a hint of contempt and disdain.

Hao Dayong was a little uncomfortable under the strange gaze, but Zhu Hou was very excited, and he didn't mind the eyes around him at all, but was proud.

However, in this way, Gu Jianfeng also felt very faceless on his face, since he became the master of Shangluo Tuofeng Peak, he has been mostly outside all these years, and he has not taken good care of Luo Tuofeng at all, and he has no leisure time to accept apprentices, so that Luo Tuofeng can't raise his head in other peaks.

Coupled with the incident decades ago, the entire Luo Tuo Peak can be said to be notorious, and many disciples who came to seek the Tao were unwilling to join Luo Tuofeng, which was also the biggest reason why Luo Tuo Feng was so withered.

Although he was depressed in his heart, he didn't speak, just snorted, picked up the wine jug, took a big sip, and closed his eyes silently.

The scene on the field Xuan Ming naturally saw it clearly, and said, "Luo Tuofeng is directly entering the next round of competition because there are only two people participating, and now if there is no meaning, they can hold their own competitions."

Originally, it was only an opening ceremony of the martial arts in the morning, which could be regarded as letting the disciples of each peak get acquainted with each other. After all, although they all belong to the Heavenly Dao Sect, the peaks rarely interact with each other in private, and it is rare to see each other a few times a year.

After the head of the sect and the Great Elder left, Yi Yun glanced at the disciples around him, and felt that it was not interesting, so he turned around and walked into the steps and walked towards the bottom of Zixiao Peak.

Many of the disciples of the rest of the peaks are flying against the sword, and those who can't be cultivated are also flying against the wind. He was the only one who slowly walked down the mountain, first, he didn't want to show off in front of people, and he also wanted to take this opportunity to visit the scenery of Zixiao Peak.

The disciples within each peak often learn from each other on weekdays, so they are also very clear about their respective cultivations. Therefore, it was not difficult to select seven disciples internally, and the list of the winning disciples of each peak was submitted in just one afternoon.

Yi Yun walked to the nameless valley alone, this was probably his favorite place to stay all these years. Because of his personality, although he is young, he has a feeling of wanting to stay away from the world, so he may be pure enough here.

Early the next morning, the disciples of each peak came to the front of Zixiao Palace early, and today was the day when the martial arts officially began. The outstanding disciples selected by all the peaks were already eager to try.

Xuan Ming walked to the front of the stage and said, "There are a total of forty-nine people participating in the competition today, and for the sake of fairness, your opponent will be decided by drawing lots."

Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but have some doubts in their hearts, there were only four people in each of the six peaks, plus the two people in Luo Tuofeng, how could there be five more people.

However, everyone's doubts didn't last long before they heard Xuan Ming continue, "Because there are only two people participating in Luo Tuofeng this time, in order to deal with the number of seven or seven, the number of the remaining six peaks is supplemented, which are nine people from the first line of Changmen, eight people from Chixiao Peak, Bixiao Peak, and Zang Jianfeng."

After speaking, he glanced at the people in the audience, raised his hand and pointed to the small balls hanging on the jade pillar in front of him, and said, "There are a total of forty-nine wax pills here, each of which has a number in it, from one to forty-nine, the numbers drawn are the first and forty-ninth competitions, the second and forty-eighth competitions, and so on, the twenty-fifth directly advances to the next round of the competition."

Hearing this, Zhu Hou was a little excited, and said with gusting hands, "Senior Brother Yun, if I can draw the twenty-fifth, I can directly advance to the next round."

"Senior Brother Zhu, I think you better stop daydreaming," Yi Yun said with a smile.

Hao Dayong also said, "That's it, don't think so much, just do your best."

"If there are no objections, you can come up and draw lots now"

On the square, everyone's eyes fell on the wax pills hanging on the jade pillar at this moment. First of all, the disciples under the Xuanqing Sect walked out of the nine people, walked to the jade pillar, and each picked up a wax pill.

It is followed by Chixiao Peak and Bixiao Peak......

Chixiao Peak Du Heng walked in front of Yi Yun and the others, and said arrogantly, "Hmph, you'd better pray not to face me, otherwise I will definitely beat you all over the ground looking for teeth."

"Hmph, what should be careful is that you and I will definitely beat you to your knees and beg for mercy" Zhu Hou was not to be outdone.

After he accidentally injured Yi Yun last time, although there was nothing wrong at the time. But when Gu Jianfeng found out, he directly rushed to Chixiao Peak and taught a lesson to the group led by Du Heng.

Don't look at Gu Jianfeng's roughness on weekdays, and he doesn't have any prestige, but after all, he is the master of the peak of the Heavenly Dao Sect, the junior disciple in charge. Therefore, even if he was a person who beat Chixiao Peak in public, Xuan Ming, as the peak master of Chixiao Peak, was helpless, not to mention that the fault was originally on his side.

Therefore, Du Heng was not only taught a lesson by Gu Jianfeng in public that day, but also severely punished by Xuan Ming. He didn't dare to do anything to Gu Jianfeng and his master, but he remembered all his resentment on Yi Yun and the others.

When the wax pill was taken out, many disciples checked the numbers in the wax pill. It would be great if you drew that "twenty-five", and many people began to read it when they drew the number.

"Mine is No. 1"

"Mine is the Forty-One"

......

"I'm twenty-four, oh my God, it's a little bit close" Zhu Hou looked depressed, twenty-four and twenty-five were a number apart.

All the numbers came out, but I didn't hear anyone say that they were the twenty-fifth, and others may not have noticed it, but Yi Yun did. The disciples of that wax pill all reported the number in their hands, and there was only one person - Yan Lingshuang!

As if sensing that someone was watching him, Yan Lingshuang's gaze followed Yi Yun, cold as ice, with a faint contempt. And Yi Yun couldn't help but be slightly shocked, his eyes were restrained, like substance, which showed that Yan Lingshuang's cultivation had made great progress in three years.

No one spoke, Xuan Ming frowned and said, "Who drew the twenty-fifth?"

Yan Lingshuang retracted her gaze and said lightly, "It's me."

Xuan Ming didn't expect that it was Yan Lingshuang who drew a bye, but he didn't say anything, nodded slightly and continued, "Okay, Yan Lingshuang will directly advance to the next round, and now start the game according to their respective order."

Since there are only seven in the ring, only seven sets can be played at a time. Zhu Hou is No. 24, which means that it will not be his turn to play until the fourth round, Hao Dayong drew No. 47, and his opponent is No. 3 Li Jian.

Li Jian is an outstanding disciple of Zang Jianfeng, and his cultivation has reached the peak of the late stage of the Guiyuan Realm.

In today's cultivation realm, the cultivation realm is divided into ten realms: Qi refining, foundation building, condensation, returning to the yuan, Jindan, Yuanying, out-of-body, returning to the void, Mahayana, and feathering. At present, there are only a handful of supreme masters in the cultivation realm who can reach the Mahayana realm, not to mention those powerhouses of the Feather Transformation Realm who have shed mortal wombs.

With an order, the seven groups of disciples on the stage instantly launched a wonderful battle.
