Chapter 110: The Battle of the Three Swords
Seeing that the eldest brother was engrossed, Xiang Qing couldn't help but ask with some curiosity: "Brother Emperor, who are these two people?"
Xiang An explained in a low voice: "Fifth sister, you don't practice martial arts, so it's not strange that you don't know these two. ”
"This one with a long beard is Liu Junyi in the Wulin Diancang Sword Sect, since he entered the rivers and lakes, the martial arts he has used are only one Four Seasons Sword Technique, and his attainments in this sword technique have been unfathomable for so many years, and his martial arts are not much different from the Yue Sect of the Diancang Sword Sect. ”
And the one who is about to fight with him is also famous, his surname is Jiang Minglan, who used to live on the streets when he was a child and begged for food for a living. Later, because of his good qualifications, he was discovered by the Lingyuan Sanren and accepted as a closed disciple, this person loved swords and became obsessed, and soon after he came into contact with martial arts, he was determined not to marry for the rest of his life, and he wanted to spend his whole life pursuing the avenue of martial arts. After that, only fourteen years later, just like his master, he broke through the entrance, and the sympathy between heaven and man made many martial arts elders amazed. ”
Xiang Qing nodded as if he didn't understand: "It turns out that they are so powerful, but why are they fighting here?"
Xiang An continued: "Fifth sister, you should have heard the story of my brother as the prime minister, Senior He Fang, who had an epiphany twenty-seven years ago in the Vermilion Bird Long Street, right?"
Xiang Qing nodded: "Well, I've heard the fourth brother mention it, and I've also seen Senior He, but I don't feel how powerful he is." ”
Xiang An smiled: "The existence of the great grandmaster, the true qi is integrated, and you can stay in the realm of the unity of heaven and man anytime and anywhere without deliberately, you naturally won't feel anything strange about him, but this kind of ordinariness is the realm that can only be experienced by standing at the top of the martial arts." ”
"Since Senior He became a great grandmaster, this Vermilion Bird Street has become another holy place in the eyes of martial arts people. In the past 20 years, I don't know how many people want to emulate the legend, sublimate themselves in the fiercest battles, and break the shackles. Liu Junyi and Jiang Lan are the same, but these two are more persistent, and they will agree to fight here every year, and it is already the twentieth year so far this year. ”
Although Xiang Qing does not practice martial arts, from the description of the eldest brother, he can also feel the persistence of the martial artist who has not regretted his death in order to seek the Great Dao, and he can't help but feel respect.
Because Cheng Kun was sitting at the table next to the two of them, although he didn't deliberately listen, he still took the words of the eldest prince into his ears, and he also admired these two seniors very much.
At the same time, he was also very envious of these two people, because they had such a good friend, who could not only live and die together, but also continue to forge ahead on the road of martial arts.
He believes that without such encouragement, they would probably not be where they are today.
After explaining so much, Jiang and Liu finally stopped continuing the silent confrontation of qi and machine, and really exchanged hands.
Jiang Lan has been practicing swords for many years, and he has unconsciously integrated a trace of sword intent into his character.
The essence in his eyes flashed, and he took the lead in making a move, and the innate true qi hidden in his body as vast as the abyssal sea turned into an invincible sword gang, blooming into a rain of stars in the sky, and scattered towards Liu Junyi.
His master, Lingyuan Sanren, is also a strange person in the martial arts, and he only cultivated to the realm of a grandmaster with only a fragmented volume of the "Lingyuan True Scripture", and then spent a lifetime to supplement and improve the shortcomings of this exercise.
Jiang Lan's martial arts are all taught by his teacher, and his true qi is also as powerful as that of Lingyuan Sanren, so his swordsmanship is also extraordinarily grand.
As soon as Liu Jun faced this incomparably brilliant sword, a childlike innocence appeared in his eyes, and his sword intent was more like a spring drizzle, full of vitality.
Cheng Kun was just watching the battle upstairs, and he could feel the artistic conception of everything sprouting from this sword.
Four Seasons Sword Spring Rain Sword Style.
The vast star shower is fascinating, but only life is the greatest miracle in this vast universe.
Liu Junyi's sword seems to be weak, but as soon as this sword comes out, it is like having its own life, constantly evolving and sublimating, the sword intent is endless, and the changes in the sword style are also endless, dissolving the opponent's sword gang one by one.
Jiang Lan's eyes were brighter, he hadn't seen him for a year, and his friend's sword intent was even more magical, but fortunately, he didn't stay where he was.
Xingyu failed to make a contribution with a sword, he turned to change his move, and the surging true qi was compressed and condensed layer by layer, converging on the sword body, making the long sword shake like a dragon's groan, and then slashed in the air.
This sword is far less dazzling than the previous move, but it has a kind of vicissitudes of the sea, the eternal vicissitudes of life.
Liu Junyi's expression also became very solemn, and he crossed the "Xia Yan" and "Autumn Frost" sword tricks, and directly used the Winter Snow Sword.
The sword intent is completely different from before, Xiao Se kills, which is just the opposite of the Spring Rain Sword. If the Spring Rain Sword represents "life", then the Winter Snow Sword represents "death".
In addition, it is the midwinter season at this time, and this sword swing is in line with the general trend of heaven and earth in the dark.
At this moment, it seems that the sky has opened its eyes, looked down on everything, and swung this sword move with the help of Liu Junyi. The invisible Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi was also disturbed by this sword, adding three points of power.
Jiang Lan's mind was silent, everything outside his body no longer lingered in his heart, only the sword in his hand advanced inch by inch, and with each inch of advancement, the true qi gathered on the sword body was one more point.
He had no doubt that even if he was standing in front of him an ancient divine mountain, he would be able to cut it into two pieces with one sword!
Liu Junyi and Jiang Lan also used the sword to give birth to the law, from the law to the Tao, but they embarked on two distinct sword paths.
The former glimpsed the truth of the impermanence of heaven and the impermanence of all laws in the rotation of the four seasons of nature, and then evolved the way of heaven with sword intent, which seems to be affectionate, but in fact it is ruthless.
And each move in the latter's swordsmanship contains the most magnificent atmosphere between heaven and earth, covering **, air pressure and eight wildernesses, on the surface it is the way to take the natural way, but the core heart is the spirit of man to conquer the sky.
In short, this is the battle between heaven and humanity.
Of course, the way of heaven and humanity here are not tangible and tangible existences, but just two opposing and complementary worldviews derived from the ancients when thinking about the ultimate question of philosophy.
Cheng Kun held his breath, there were only two long swords in his eyes that were about to fight, and he quietly felt the thoughts and perceptions of the Great Dao that the two of them expressed through the sword moves.
For someone like him who has the opportunity to watch the game, that's the most precious reward.
Although in the eyes of Cheng Kun, who was highly concentrated, the speed of the movement of the two swords did not seem to be fast, this was just an illusion caused by the high excitement of the brain.
In the eyes of ordinary people, after the two of them initially exchanged swords, they only paused for an imperceptible moment, and when their qi veins were restored, they immediately slashed out an amazing second sword.
In the next moment, the two swords finally collided.
Liu Jun's body trembled, and the sword qi condensed to the extreme on Jiang Lan's long sword exploded, like a landslide and a volcano erupted, causing him to burn inside, and he was severely injured by the violent sword qi, and blood flowed from his mouth.
Jiang Lan stood in place, his face much paler than just now.
Liu Jun's restrained sword intent blended into a trace of sword qi, and when the two swords were handed over, it attacked his body, as if he had a soul, and went straight to his heart.
In terms of injuries, he was even more seriously injured than his old friend opposite.
It's just that these two people didn't care about the details of these ** at all, but the sword intent was even stronger, which made the eyes of everyone on the sidelines tingle, and they could hardly look directly.
The two people on the long street did not speak, and they reached a tacit understanding with only eye contact: the last sword, to determine the victory!
Liu Jun's eyes became extremely empty, his divine sense was faint, and he was connected with the sky, and under the oppression of his opponent, his mind entered an unprecedented wonderful realm, and a nameless sword was naturally unleashed.
His sword intent was sublimated again, and the fundamental sword intent of the years was extracted from the four seasons sword intent, which was the highest realm of the Four Seasons sword technique that was rampant in the world.
No matter whether you are a prince or a countryman, in the face of time, everyone is equal, and no one can transcend it.
Jiang Lan was sincere, his spirit was reduced to an imperceptible point, and he swung the simplest sword with the most pious heart.
There is no change in this sword, even if you find a random child, you can judge the trajectory of the sword body movement with the naked eye. But this is the most powerful sword in Jiang Lan's life.
This sword is called "Chopping Dao", which entrusts Jiang Lan to seek the avenue unrepentantly to death. If the mountain blocks my way, it splits the mountain, and if the sea blocks my way, it will cut off the sea, even if it is a fairy god who lives above the nine heavens, it can't change my mind!
The two qi machines are entangled with each other, even if the two of them have long controlled the true qi, but this last sword has really exceeded the limit of the two, and it is inevitable that a trace of sword qi will overflow, carving chaotic sword marks on the mottled bluestone slabs of Suzaku Long Street.
Cheng Kun tried his best to widen his eyes, but the last sword of the two of them was indeed beyond his comprehension, and he couldn't see the details clearly.
Speaking of which, this was the first time he had seen a battle between the top martial artists under the Great Grandmaster.
In desperation, he could only close his eyes, relying on his spiritual sense, trying to get a glimpse of the reality from the fiercely changing qi of the two.
Cheng Kun's situation is not an exception, there are very few people who can watch the battle in their entirety to see this last sword in their entirety, if they don't cultivate enough and force them to watch, it is very likely that they will be hurt by the sword intent of the two, and the legacy will be endless.
Three breaths passed, Cheng Kun opened his eyes and found that Liu Junyi and Jiang Lan had already put their swords back into their sheaths, and he heard a sigh of annoyance from many people in his ears at the same time.
However, when he looked at the eldest prince Xiang An, he saw that Xiang An's eyes narrowed slightly, and some small red spots appeared under his eyes, but the expression on his face was very satisfied.
He kept to see it to the end!
Cheng Kun was shocked, and then realized that Xiang An's cultivation might be much more advanced than he expected.
However, it is not surprising that Xiang An is ten years older than him, and he is a supreme classic such as the "Emperor Extreme Overlord Shilu" who has been cultivating, and when he is an adult, he has fought with the Yue people in the military, and it is impossible to lack experience in fighting masters, even if his qualifications are extremely poor, the martial arts realm cannot be low.
What's more, although Xiang An's qualifications are not as good as his fourth brother, they will not be much worse.
On the Suzaku Long Street, Jiang and Liu turned their backs to each other, and their footwork staggered a little towards the direction they came. There was a trace of regret in the eyes of both of them, of course, more joy and fear.
The last sword, they all kept their hands.
If you don't keep your hand, there may be a 1 in 10,000 chance that you will break through, but it is more likely that both of them were stabbed to death by the other party with the most powerful sword in their lives, and such a consequence is something they can't bear.
However, there are still gains in this battle, and only they will know how much they have gained.
On both sides of the long street, many martial arts people with long swords on their backs poured out, and these people were all swordsmen who came from all over the world to watch this sword duel. Everyone unanimously bowed to Jiang and Liu and thanked them for their preaching.
Liu Junyi and Jiang Lan waved their hands to everyone without looking back, and left in style.
After this battle, I don't know how many outstanding swordsmen will emerge from these people.
On the second floor, Xia Rui, who was sitting at the same table with Cheng Kun, also performed a half-master salute, and he was fortunate to watch this battle, which made him gain greatly.
He was also full of gratitude to the eldest prince in his heart, if it wasn't for Xiang An coming to Fan Lou, he wouldn't have had this opportunity to watch the battle.
Among the crowd, only Princess Xiang Qing of Pingyang looked a little bored.
Because she didn't practice martial arts, she couldn't see the subtlety of this battle. In her eyes, Jiang and Liu on the long street just changed three different postures and then swung three swords, and everything was over, it was not fun at all, and it was not as majestic as her fourth brother who usually practiced boxing.
After watching the battle, Xiang An stopped caring about the cup of tea on the table, which was already cold, and got up to go home.
After leaving Fan Lou, Xiang An parted ways with the fifth sister, and insisted that she return to the palace immediately, regardless of Xiang Qing's pouting lips. After watching his sister walk away in the direction of the palace, he returned to the Yue Wangfu with the guards around him.
On the way back, Xiang An was silent, looking thoughtful, and Chang Xiong didn't dare to disturb His Highness thinking about the problem, so he quietly fell behind him, and his steps were much lighter.
After returning home, Xiang An sat down and asked a few people: "You watched this battle on the long street with me just now, I don't know how you feel?"
Wang Tiezhen was the first to answer: "Back to Your Highness, I only have four words to say: breathtaking." My old Wang's martial arts are not weak, but if he is opposite to these two people, I am afraid that he will be killed by the sword if he doesn't use three or two swords. ”
After admiring, he changed his words again: "But if I really go up against such a master, I won't go up alone stupidly, pull up the three of them, and the one who dies may be the person opposite." ”
Hu Ziliang and Xia Rui also nodded and agreed.
The three of them all thought that the eldest prince asked this question because he had doubts about his own safety after seeing Liu Junyi and Jiang Lan's amazing swordsmanship, so they also confidently said in their answers that as long as they went together, no matter how high the martial arts master was, he didn't have to be afraid.
Xiang An smiled and nodded, as if he was very satisfied with the answers of the three of them.
But Cheng Kun noticed from the details of the expression on Xiang An's face that the answer he actually wanted was not this.
Cheng Kun was thoughtful, a person's thoughts must have a great relationship with his position, since Xiang An is in the royal family, his ass himself is sitting on the side of the royal family, there is no doubt about this.
So, think about it from another perspective, if you are a prince and see two martial arts people emptying the long street as if no one was around, crackling and fighting, and then patting your ass and leaving, what would you think?
I'm afraid I'll scold my mother in my heart! Cheng Kun didn't hesitate at all, and immediately came up with an answer.
Since ancient times, chivalry has violated the prohibition with martial arts, and Confucianism has violated the law with literature.
If it weren't for the fact that the Xiang family itself holds the most powerful power in the world, has the most profound and extensive martial arts inheritance, and has cultivated a large number of masters to firmly suppress all factions in the martial arts, I am afraid that the world would have been turned upside down by those bold heroes from all walks of life and the chivalrous warriors who saw the injustice and pulled out a sword shovel.
In this way, it is easy to guess what Xiang An is thinking in his heart.
