"Senior brother, admit it!" Lu Chengfeng stepped forward to help the man up after giving a salute, the other party obviously knew that he didn't want to give it all his strength, but he was also grateful at the moment, and he didn't speak again after smiling.

"Who else is not convinced?"

Elder Xuanqing was not much surprised by this unsuspenseful competition, thinking that Lu Chengfeng, who could defeat the Xuan-rank disciples that day, would definitely make great progress in his cultivation after a year of hard cultivation. It was obvious that none of the Yellow Rank disciples present were his opponents, but for the sake of fairness, he still shouted around.

Everyone attaches great importance to the quota of this competition, even if there is the slightest opportunity. At that moment, another person came out, but he was defeated in less than a round, and then two or three people appeared in a row, but they were all defeated by Lu Chengfeng without exception. As the so-called "gun shoots the first bird", watching the several senior brothers in front of him being defeated one after another, he already knew very well in his heart that their cultivation would never be Lu Chengfeng's opponent. Although they refused to admit it, they were already convinced in their hearts, and they were even thinking that there might be another master in Shushan in the future.

But seeing that no one dared to step forward among the disciples around him, Elder Xuanqing coughed lightly twice, and said with a straight face, "Since no one dares to fight again, then I now announce that Lu Chengfeng has successfully passed the preliminary examination and is ready to participate in tomorrow's re-examination!"

Passing the preliminary examination so easily, not to mention the Yellow Rank disciples, even the registered disciples who were watching around also felt the glory. This is a great opportunity that many people can only dream of. There are many disciples in Shushan, but only the top 30 are selected to participate in the re-examination, which can really be said to be one in a hundred. Looking at Lu Chengfeng in the field, the expressions on everyone's faces were nothing but envy or envy. However, after hearing Elder Xuanqing's words, all the registered disciples cheered in unison, and their faces were irrepressibly excited, among which the thin monkey and the fat cow were the most happy. But Song Qingshan's face showed an extremely strange expression at this moment, and he didn't know whether it was because Lu Chengfeng deliberately concealed his cultivation, or because he was jealous because he failed to become a disciple of the inner determination.

In fact, it is understandable that there are many people like him who have been practicing penance for many years and are making slow progress. The most indignant thing in my heart is that I have been cultivating for many years and is not as good as a newcomer, I am afraid that no matter who it is, it will not feel good in my heart. But this is the case in this world where the strong are respected, and only those who have strength can be valued by others.

While the other disciples were busy with the initial examination, Lu Chengfeng quietly left from the crowd. Previously, he had learned that the retreat of the head of Cijian was located in the Qingyang Cave Mansion of the main gate, and because he was worried about the disappearance of Miss Haitang in Xiaoyao Cave, he sneaked out of the back mountain. Fortunately, at this time, the disciples of all levels were busy with the initial examination, and it lasted for a long time, so he also had time to investigate. Around Shu Mountain, the mountains are undulating, and large and small waterfalls can be seen everywhere between the canyons. The Qingyang Cave Mansion is located in a waterfall under the Siguo Cliff, and if you want to enter it, you must first pass through a huge waterfall.

The waterfall hung beyond a straight cliff at the bottom of the cliff, and there was no place to rely on it all around, but to walk with Edgeworth. When Lu Chengfeng searched along the road according to the information he had inquired before, he soon found the location of the waterfall.

From a distance, the waterfall was like an incomparably huge silver chain, rushing straight down. Its majestic momentum is like a thunderbolt rushing for thousands of miles, and it is already difficult to look at it directly. Before they could get closer, they could hear a deafening sound of water echoing through the canyon. When you come here, the mist rising from the sky is like a dream. At this moment, I am afraid that it is difficult to find other adjectives except for the magic description.

When Lu Chengfeng saw the big characters on the cliff, he was happy in his heart, and this was where the Qingyang Cave Mansion was located. He only came here to find out the truth, and he didn't want to offend the head of Cijian easily, so he slowly walked away with his sword, and put his whole body on the stone wall, ready to sneak in.

Unexpectedly, he was just about to leave, but an old and deep voice came from inside the cave, "If you have the heart to visit, why bother sneaky......"

Through the deafening sound of water, the sound that came out was extremely clear, as if with a strong internal force, which shocked the listener. Lu Chengfeng couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, this thrifty head is really powerful. It's just that his whereabouts have been exposed, but at the moment he is in a dilemma. If you go in directly, you have to ask about Miss Begonia's corpse, and the head will definitely know that he has been to the forbidden land of Shushan, and then he will be investigated to the end with the character of this old man. If you don't go in, if the other party has the intention to investigate, I'm afraid you will be speechless.

Just as he was hesitating, the waterfall in front of the cave was cut off by an invisible force, and a white-flowered water gate appeared in the middle. As the water gate was pushed open, the rushing water diverted to both sides as if frightened. The power of this huge waterfall was as powerful as a thousand pounds, and the old man could easily separate them, and he didn't know how far he had already cultivated. But the situation in front of him is clearly that the thrifty head has the heart to greet him, since he has already come, it is better to simply ask clearly, Lu Chengfeng picked the bridge of his nose and thought about it for a while, then he went away and disappeared into the white water gate.

After entering the cave, in the midst of the smoke, Lu Chengfeng faintly saw that the head of Cijian was standing behind his back, and unexpectedly, he saw a female corpse lying on a cold ice bed at a glance. When he saw the dress of the female corpse, he could already determine that it was the body of Miss Begonia, and it seemed that the head of the thrifty family had obviously known his intentions.

Before he could speak, the voice of the head of Cijian came slowly, "I already know your origin and identity, and I won't blame you for trespassing on the forbidden land of Shu Mountain." If you want to ask me about it, after Shushan discusses the sword, someone will tell you the answer. ”

The old man's short words seemed to contain endless deep meanings, and he seemed to know everything about himself. What's even more strange is that he, as the dignified head of Shushan, did not shy away from his private affairs, and told a little-known disciple truthfully and unabashedly. Lu Chengfeng carefully pondered the words of the head of Cijian, and judged that the negative person in Feng Sanniang's mouth was the head of Cijian, and before he met Sanniang, he had not had any contact with the head of Cijian. The most incredible thing is that when Feng Sanniang judged his identity because of the sentence "Heaven and earth do not distinguish between good and evil, and the Tao is in the heart", but this was said by Xiao Xiaoyao and himself, and it has nothing to do with the head of Cijian. At that time, Feng Sanniang was very sure, could it be that Xiao Xiaoyao had anything to do with the thrifty head in front of him? But after thinking about it, it was not right, because the words and deeds of the two were too far apart, and he really couldn't connect the two together, but what was going on?

Moreover, this ci and frugal head refused to meet Miss Haitang before she died, but why did he bring her body back here at this moment? But thinking of the location of her body, Lu Chengfeng was also a lot more relieved, at least when Sanniang asked about it, he would have an explanation.

At this moment, Lu Chengfeng wanted to ask all the doubts in his stomach, but the words of the head of Cijian blocked his mouth. He was stunned for a long time, then turned and left.

Passing by the Hidden Scripture Pavilion halfway through, he suddenly remembered that the true qi consumption of this Nine Yang Burning Immortal Recipe was too great, and he would never be able to use it easily unless he had to. Moreover, this supreme true method was secretly learned by oneself, and if the time comes, if it is asked by the elders, he will not be able to explain it. Fortunately, at this moment, the Hidden Scripture Pavilion was clean and empty, so he slipped in alone, ready to find some exercises that could be used in ordinary times without hurting his true qi.

"Shadowless Sword Technique", the original swordsmanship of this sect, was created by the third generation of the head of the Shushan faction. General outline of sword tricks: no shadow and no sword, flickering left and right, anticipating the enemy's opportunity, and changing without a trace. Although its sword technique is not as wide as that of the superior exercises, it is better than the ingenious and illusory. The essence of the attack is to be as fast as lightning, and change the move halfway before the opponent is ready to take precautions, in order to achieve a surprise effect. The sword shadow was sitting, and the sword blade turned sharply to the right, and if it stabbed the chest, it would break through first. All in all, when confusing the enemy, he suddenly changes his moves at a very fast speed, so that the opponent is caught off guard.

There are only three sword styles in total, the broken sword style, the phantom sword style, and the stabbing sword style. The first two moves are to confuse the other party, and the last move is the real move. It's easy to learn, but it takes some practice to truly grasp the meaning. This sword trick actually does not belong to the Taoist immortal method at all, it is just an ordinary sword move, but among the three moves, it is all-inclusive, and each move can be turned into a thousand moves. People who have always entered the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion are looking for some majestic and powerful immortal methods, but looking at the dust on this exercise, no one has touched it for some years.

True cultivators claim to be disciples of the immortal family, and most of them are not interested in these ordinary sword moves, and deliberately pursue some seemingly dazzling immortal methods, which are actually extremely depleting of true qi. When Lu Chengfeng turned to the last page, there was a paragraph on it, saying: Since ancient times, everything has changed and has not deviated from its origin. All the ways in this world are people-oriented, the moves are illusory and invisible, only there is a sword in the heart, and the things in the hand are dispensable. I hope that future generations will have this sword trick to carry it forward, and I will be at peace in my heart!

To say that this short sentence of the third generation head of Shushan encapsulates the truth of the world, in fact, the moves of any exercise are based on their own true qi, no matter how powerful the Dao method in the world is, it is useless for those who are shallow in cultivation. On the contrary, if one's own cultivation is profound, it doesn't matter if there is a sword in his hand or not, if he really wants to make a move, in fact, all plants and trees can be swords, and even more, as long as his mind moves, the true qi emitted by himself can also kill people invisibly.

It's a pity that most people in this world can't understand the truth, and they can't even practice the basic exercises, so why covet those advanced exercises?
