The four borders of east, west, north and south, each covering tens of millions of miles.

In this world, the four realms are dominated by various cultivation sects and occupy the upper position. Due to the need for cultivation, each of these sects relied on their strength to assign the cities of ordinary civilians who mainly lived without cultivation to their rule. For example, the Guanyun Temple of the Immortal Cultivation Sect, Luofeng Mountain, the Heavenly Sword Villa of the Martial Arts Sect, the Baoyue Gate, and so on, all rule over many large and small cities. For example, Fubi City, where the Su family is located, is under the jurisdiction of Baoyuemen.

Most of the sects have set up a foreign affairs court, which is responsible for resolving large and small conflicts and disputes between the cities, and the city lord in the city is also appointed by the foreign affairs court, and most of them are disciples with limited cultivation prospects in the sect, and there are also civilians with great prestige in the city. The Foreign Affairs Yuan is also responsible for urging the people in the city and the scattered monks to hand over the cultivation materials, gold and stone minerals, money, clothing, and vegetables every year for worship.

As long as they are recorded in the documents of the residents of these regulated cities, the rules of these sects must be observed.

But if you really have the strength to reach the sky, just like a monk like Yuan Jiuxiang, the awakening dragon master, who does not set up a mountain gate, if you want to live in this city, then naturally no one will knock on your door and ask you to collect offerings.

Further down is the unbelonging city without any cultivation power. These cities are not bound by regulations, and the floating population is mostly a lone monk or a gang. Even if there are some ordinary people who were born and raised and have no cultivation, they are all rampant bandits who lick blood from the knife edge. These people, no matter how rampant they are, as long as they don't disturb the territory of those major sects, no one wants to take care of this kind of place where there are three religions and nine streams, and dragons and snakes are mixed and intertwined.

In this way, over time, the division of power in this world was constructed.

The Yanqing River, which originates from the Yingyu Snow Mountain in the north, stretches for tens of thousands of miles, dividing the boundary between the east and the west, and then flows into the south for a long time.

The Yanqing River is the largest river in the world, and its tributaries are numerous, pouring into various territories along the way. After the awakening dragon sent a message to the Flying Pigeon of the Mercy Sword Mound, he left Fubi City with the two little dolls, and took a tributary of the Yanqing River, from which he entered the main river and went down the river to the south.

Along the way, Su Xinglong told them all kinds of customs and anecdotes, and the two little ones who listened to it were relaxed and happy, and also reduced the boredom and fatigue of the journey by half.

Even if the boat was bumpy, Bai Nianyi did not forget to practice the branch handle style taught to him by the old immortal at the bow of the boat every day. Su Xinglong watched Bai Nianyi practice on the boat with a pipe, and he asked Bai Nianyi if he would like to take Su Qiao'er to practice this set of moves together.

Bai Nianyi has a similar practice, which is Lian Chunqiu's self-created Spring and Autumn Sword Technique.

In that year, he even watched the spring and autumn for more than ten years, and finally lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests to watch the changes of the four seasons. After coming out of the mountain, he climbed to the top of the world with the Spring and Autumn Sword Technique.

It's just a set of branches, Bai Nianyi doesn't care what Spring and Autumn Sword, Winter and Summer Sword, and now he is alone, this Su family is really good to himself, and bluntly said that if Su Qiaoer is willing to learn, he will teach her everything. It's just that the boat is upside down, and the little girl can't stabilize her body, so she staggers to the side after two blind strokes, and the awakening dragon shook his head and smiled, Let's go ashore and talk about it.

The boat swayed and sailed south. Bai Nianyi sat on the side of the boat, with a gourd and a pipe tied to his waist, and the small flute was wrapped in strips of cloth and carried behind his back. Su Qiao'er grabbed Bai Nianyi's clothes with her left hand, and reached into the river with her right hand and happily slapped the river.

The young man ripped off the girl's claws and looked at Su Xinglong: "Uncle Long, how powerful are the people on the Tongtian List?" as he spoke, he pinched Su Qiao'er's little paw that was back on his clothes and didn't let her move.

"The eight masters of this heavenly list are all insightful of the laws of heaven and earth, transparent of all ways, and the power of their hearts, naturally all of them are extremely powerful. After Su Xinglong finished speaking, he saw Bai Nian looking at him blankly, so he had to explain carefully: "Since you are going to the Compassion Sword Shrine to practice now, I will tell you about this cultivation." Five hundred years ago, there was a great great figure in the martial arts, and that was Qin Fangguo, the Ten Realms Immortal. He not only pacified the cruel suppression of our martial arts cultivators by the immortal cultivators back then, but also established a clear and distinct realm division for the immortal and martial cultivators in the world. The five levels of martial arts are to wash the marrow, gather strength, shine on the body, contemplate the spirit, and clear the mind; the five levels of the immortal path are to purify the soul, distinguish the house, build qi, attract the spirit, and the three infants. And above the two fifth-order immortals, they are all unified as the Ten Realm Immortals. On the rivers and lakes, there is a point flower hall formed by the two scattered cultivators of Xianwu. This organization has a large number of people and is spread all over the four borders, and they sell all kinds of information, big and small, and also receive orders for assassination guards. The Tongtian list is this thing, it is this point that Huatang uses their numerical advantage and huge intelligence ability to screen out the people who can be on the list in the powerful scattered cultivation of various sects and factions in the four realms and the secluded mountains, and then synthesize the personal strength of these people, and finally launch this Tongtian list, and the people who can be on the list are either masters of martial arts and clear hearts, or the three babies of the immortal path. Its impartiality is unquestionable. Now that Li Changting is dead, it is estimated that the number one position in the world will be temporarily vacant. ”

Speaking of Li Changting, Su Xinglong couldn't help but glance at Bai Nian. But I saw that the young man was unmoved, and his face was expressionless.

And Su Qiao'er on the side stopped playing in the water, sat down, and listened attentively to her father telling these stories about the cultivation world.

"Daddy, there are only eight people on this list, and there are very few people who have reached Mingxin and Sanying?"

"I don't know much about the matter of immortal cultivation. However, in the martial arts, this stage of enlightenment is also known as the little land immortal. After contemplating the spirit, the sea of qi is full of vigor, and its momentum is as powerful as a city in the body. Entering the realm of clear heart, there are big cities and small cities, although these two are clear hearts, but there were once bright hearts of the big city masters who used all their strength to thwart the clear heart monks of the five small city mansions. Therefore, its strength cannot be discussed on the same stage. And the Mingxin masters on the Tongtian list are all the pinnacles of Ayutthaya. There will not be too few masters in the world, but those who really enter the realm of Ayutthaya are really hermit masters who are not born in the world, but whoever knows on the surface is on this list. ”

Bai Nianyi was a little frustrated, this was too far away, and he only felt small and powerless when he heard it, so he said, "Uncle Long, you should tell us about what is in front of you." ”

Su Xinglong laughed, opened the water bladder and moistened his throat: "Martial arts practice, when your swordsmanship begins to take shape, you can induce the body's qi to wash the muscles and marrow, pry through the body tricks to open the sea of qi, and enter the stage of washing the marrow." After that, the trick was opened, and the qi machine around the body began to circulate, and the sea of qi began to condense the power of true qi, which was cohesion. In the future, you have a long way to practice the way of the sword, and if you don't understand anything when you go to the Compassion Sword Shrine, ask the teaching master, and you will know. ”

Bai Nianyi asked: "Then when can I wash the marrow?" What kind of spring, summer, autumn and winter sword I have been practicing since I was a child, and I have never broken it, why don't I feel anything now." ”

Su Xinglong smiled: "Do you think that just by playing two swordsmanship moves, you can enter the country and enter the realm of martial arts cultivation? Martial arts, the so-called atmosphere of this weapon, fists and feet, in fact, also determines whether you can practice in the future. As soon as the weather is said, its subtlety is a bit like the immortal cultivation drawing talisman to pull the wind and thunder, poking the meaning of scattering beans into soldiers. Specifically, when you stab out with a sword, you can draw your mind into it, and feel that you and the edge in your hand have reached a state of one, which can be regarded as a successful cleansing of the marrow and stepping through the door of cultivation. ”

The young man seemed to understand whether he understood or not, and looked at the river, stunned.

At this time, a huge building ship cut through the waves from the upstream and sailed violently.

On the boat, there are four gorgeously dressed young men and young girls talking and laughing, and two beautiful musicians are sitting next to them, one playing the pipa and the other playing Tao Xun. Shengge Yanyu, so lively.

At this time, it has entered a tributary in the southern territory, and after driving dozens of miles, it is Yushui City under the jurisdiction of the Mercy Sword Shrine. And the Compassion Sword Shrine is in the inner city of this Yushui City.

Although the river is not wide, it is also tens of zhang away. However, the boat was impartial behind the small boat on which the three of them were riding, and rushed towards them right in front of them, without the slightest intention of steering away from the direction.

Seeing that the boat was about to be overturned under the belly of the boat, the boatman who rowed the oars had already panicked, and tried his best to play the oars but to no avail, and looked at the boat with a pale face and had no idea. Su Qiao'er screamed, and was so frightened that she closed her eyes and hugged Bai Nianyi next to her. Because of the excessive force, Bai Nianyi, who was caught off guard, hugged Su Qiao'er and the two rolled down on the board together.

The awakening dragon snorted coldly, slapped his palm on the side of the boat, and the boat suddenly moved a few feet sideways, and then dodged the menacing building boat.

Out of danger, the boatman, who was about to jump ship to save his life, sat down panting.

The small boat that suddenly moved sideways finally attracted the attention of everyone on the boat. A boy in a brocade robe and a peach fan looked at the adults and children on the boat, and looked playful: "Who did this method of moving the boat?" He glanced at the four of them, and then set his eyes on the awakening dragon. Su Xinglong squinted at him, and was about to speak, but Bai Nianyi, who was helping Su Qiao'er to stand up, scolded angrily.

"Such a wide river, if you didn't crash into us, wouldn't you have long eyes when you sailed the boat?" After the frightened Su Qiao'er was helped up by Bai Nianyi, she hurriedly ran into the arms of the awakening dragon, her small body trembled, and it seemed that she was really frightened.

Brother Gongzi, who was hit by Bai Nianyi, folded his fan, knocked on the side of the boat, and stared at Bai Nian: "Where are you a little brute, I talk to your family, do you have the right to speak?"

A man and two women behind him also surrounded him. The man next to Brother Gongzi snorted, pointed to the boat and said, "Little beast, do you know who you are scolding?" This is Yang Buzhi, the son of Elder Yang Siyang of the Compassion Sword Shrine, these two young ladies, one is Yang Gongzi's younger sister, Yang Buregret, and the other is Yang Gongzi's fiancée, Lin Yuande, the daughter of the master of the Heavenly Sword Villa, and I am Zhang Dechou, the only son of the city lord of Yushui City. The little brute who is open-mouthed, if you don't kill you, it will be your fate, and you dare to insult us. ”

What kind of courtyard master daughter of Heavenly Sword Mountain Villa made Bai Nian take a look at it more. Then he withdrew his gaze and glared at the two sons.

These two people are a little beast, and the angry Bai Nian's lungs are about to explode. If it weren't for Uncle Long on the boat, the boat would have been hit by them and there would be no bones, but I didn't expect them to apologize at all, and they were so arrogant and domineering, but they also raised a long list of names to show their identities.

Su Xinglong stopped Bai Nianyi, who was about to scold back, pulled his daughter in his arms to Bai Nianyi's side, and then luckily picked up and flew onto the boat.

"The Compassion Sword Shrine has a prominent reputation, and it is also a famous family with a head and a face in the rivers and lakes. How can there be a disciple like you who has no character and no virtue and cares for people's lives and still has a dirty mouth?" If this trip wasn't for sending his daughter and Nianyi to the Sword Shrine to practice, he didn't want to get too stiff with the disciples of the Sword Shrine, otherwise he would have already started teaching these boys who didn't know the height of the sky.

Yang Buzhi and the two women looked at the Awakening Dragon that flew in front of them, and they all smiled contemptuously, only the son of the city lord of Yushui City quietly took two steps back.

"How my Sword Shrine disciple acts, it's not your turn to be an outsider to tell you what to do. Originally, I saw that you had a good way of moving the boat, so I had the heart to accept you as my entourage. Otherwise, if you trespass into my boat, I will immediately break your legs and throw you into this river to feed the fish. Yang Buzhi sat down on a recliner, crossed his legs, played a fan, and showed his arrogance. "It is also a bit of a skill to be able to move this small boat out of thin air, are you willing to follow me? From now on, it is okay to eat and drink spicy food, and I can also arrange for the two dolls on your small boat to go into the sword mound to do chores, if you are lucky, you will be favored by one of my elder uncles, and you will be able to climb to the sky one step from here." ”

How are you going to talk about it this day?

The awakening dragon who originally wanted to be reasonable also dispersed that thought. stepped in front of Yang Buyi, left and right hands came out, one in each hand, and threw Yang Buzhi and Zhang Dechou into the river.

When Lin Mei and Yang Buregret saw the awakening dragon rushing towards Yang Buvio, they both raised their swords at the same time to block it, but they were only blocked by a phantom. Didn't touch the awakening dragon in the slightest.

"Want to do it with me?" said the awakening dragon looked at the two of them.

The four people in this line, except for Zhang Dechou, who is an ordinary person who has no power to restrain chickens, are all martial arts monks in the Gathering Strength Realm. At present, Yang Buzhi was thrown into the river without even fighting back, and Lin Mei and Yang Buregret couldn't even catch the corners of each other's clothes.

Yang Buregret looked at Su Xinglong and snorted coldly, jumped off the stairs, and pulled Zhang Dechou, who couldn't swim, up. came up together, and Yang Buzhi, who has become a soup chicken.
