Chapter Twenty-Three: The Blue Lotus Swordsman, the Blue Lotus Sword
In the darkness, I vaguely saw several figures sitting cross-legged, and an old voice sounded leisurely.
"Xing Sen, I don't know how the temptation went?"
"It's indeed him, this son has an upright temperament! But I need you to help him as soon as possible, so that he can protect our human race and calm the troubled times when the catastrophe comes!"
Hearing this, Xing Sen responded softly.
......
In the place of the trial tower, after Situ saw that the thunderclouds dissipated, he pinched the seal with his hand and took back the eight array flags in his hand.
"Hoo ......"
Zhou Qing got up and breathed a long sigh of relief, turning into a streamer and coming to the old man surnamed Li.
"Elder Li... I'm sorry, because I just broke through the bottleneck, so I crossed the catastrophe here in the trial tower. I hope Elder Li will forgive me!" Zhou Qing looked at the old man surnamed Li with an apologetic face.
"Forget it, it's your chance, besides, the defense of the trial tower is not something that a three-nine small heavenly tribulation can destroy!" The old man surnamed Li waved his hand, looked at Zhou Qing solemnly and said.
"I hope you will remember the firm will of "my heart will not die, and the heart of seeking the Tao will not be extinguished"!
Zhou Qing nodded in agreement, and after saluting several college tutors, he turned into a streamer and went away.
After Zhou Qing left, the old man surnamed Li walked into the air and walked into the air, so that many new students gathered together.
"Today's trip to the trial tower, although there are twists and turns, but it is also roughly okay!"
In the void, the voice of an old man surnamed Li came.
The new students began to gather in the nearby square, and the old man surnamed Li walked to the high platform of the square in a vacant manner.
Next, the old man surnamed Li distributed the rewards for breaking into the tower today.
Those who have no cultivators, and those who break into the tower with the help of others, are each rewarded with a cultivation method and body method.
"Brother Jiang, Jiang Yu, you see, I finally have exercises to cultivate!"
Nie Zifeng held the rubbings of "Fu Ling Gong Method" and "Shadowless Body Method" in his hand, and said excitedly to Jiang Huan and the others.
Jiang Huan and Jiang Yu also nodded happily, and said words of encouragement to Nie Zifeng.
"Jiang Huan, you are extremely powerful, and you care more about others! Say, what reward do you want?"
The old man surnamed Li suddenly looked at Jiang Huan and asked.
"Jiang Huan, he actually has such treatment!"
Some people who had been taught by Jiang Huan in Yuandu looked at Jiang Huan jealously.
When Jiang Huan heard this, he remembered the arrogant figure in the thunder tribulation, and thought of the heroic aura of his body, and he couldn't help but be ambitious in his heart, and said after a little thought.
"Back to the seniors, the student wants a sword of righteousness!"
"Haha, Jiang Huan! You have to know that "there is no difference between good and evil in the sword, and there is a difference between good and evil!" After hearing this, a smile flashed in the eyes of the old man surnamed Li, and a three-foot long sword appeared out of thin air in his hand.
"Okay, I have a Qinglian sword here! This sword is not a spiritual object for cultivating truth, its previous owner is Li Bai, the third-generation dean of the Yuangong Academy of Literature, I don't know if you want to take it?"
Some students heard that it was a literati with a sword, and looked at Jiang Huan with mocking eyes.
"Qinglian Sword ......" Lin Shiyao heard this, and a hint of discoloration flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Li Bai... Qinglian Swordsman Qinglian Sword... Is it actually his sword?" Jiang Huan's side, Xiao Jialin, who had always been unwavering, had a trace of hope in the depths of his eyes when he heard the names of Li Bai and Qinglian Sword, but he quickly hid it.
"Dean of the Academy?"
Jiang Huan said to himself, although he had never heard of Li Bai's name, but because of the righteousness of Confucianism in the world, he had been in awe of Confucianism since he was a child.
The Yuangong Academy of Literature is a temple in the minds of Confucian scholars all over the world, and there are countless Confucians of the human race who have come out of it.
Since Li Bai was once able to hold the bull's ear of the Academy of Literature, his literary attainments are naturally extraordinary, and the Qinglian Sword was once his sword, so he will naturally be nourished by his Confucianism and righteousness.
After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Huan made up his mind to speak: "I am willing!
"Hahaha, good, good! good! It's really teachable, the Qinglian Sword has been silent for thousands of years, and finally waits for its destination!"
The old man surnamed Li immediately laughed heartily, looked at Jiang Huan with relief, and at the same time, his right hand shook slightly, and he sent the Qinglian Sword to Jiang Huan.
When Jiang Huan reached out to catch the Qinglian Sword, the true qi in the dantian suddenly began to feel restless, and Jiang Huan immediately guarded the dantian and suppressed the restless feeling.
"Big brother, if you want me to say, you might as well ask for some exercises and spiritual objects, what's the use of asking for this mortal sword!"
Jiang Yu looked at this ordinary Qinglian Sword and said to Jiang Huan.
"What I said is bad, I think that this sword is a little thick in its simplicity, and it looks very compatible with Brother Jiang!" Nie Zifeng waved his hand disapprovingly and said.
Jiang Huan didn't pull out the sword in a hurry, his right hand stroked the scabbard of the Qinglian sword, and nodded in agreement.
"Haha, how can I not see anything extraordinary about this sword, you really comfort yourself!"
Seeing this, Jiang Yunhao, who was not far away, also pulled Jiang Yunyan forward and joked.
"What do you know, this boy thinks this sword must be a peerless thing......! It's in the eyes of those Confucian students!hahaha......" Ye Zhenghua laughed loudly.
Jiang Huan didn't pay attention to their jokes, and looked at the sword in his hand alone.
"Shut up, Jiang Huan, I hope you will use this Qinglian Sword in the future!"
Xiao Jialin drank lightly, and Ye Zhenghua was so frightened that he didn't dare to say much, and said a strange thing to Jiang Huan.
Then, the old man surnamed Li finished distributing the rewards, and he returned to the trial tower.
Just as everyone was about to go back to rest, a sound of breaking the air came from the distance, and in two breaths, a middle-aged man came here.
After the middle-aged man landed on the high platform, he opened a scroll of silk books in his hand and opened his mouth to read.
"The trip to the Freshman Trial Tower has been completed, and today the list of three talents will be re-arranged! Fifteen freshmen have entered the list. ”
"He Yongqing, cultivated to the ninefold realm of the Tongmai, in the early stage of strength building, ranked sixth on the list. ”
"Jiang Huan, cultivated to the sixfold realm of the Tongmai, built a foundation in half a step with strength, and temporarily ranked eighth on the list. ”
"Jiang Yu, cultivation is a one-fold realm, a five-fold strength through the pulse, and there are three hundred and sixty people on the list. ”
"Jiang Yunyan, cultivation is a double realm of Tongmai, and his strength is double of Tongmai, and he is ranked five hundred on the list. ”
In addition, five new students entered the list. ”
"Xiao Jialin, in the later stage of foundation building, ranked first on the land list;
Lin Shiyao, in the middle stage of foundation building, eighth on the land list;
Liu Ruyu, in the early stage of foundation building, the 185th place list;
Ye Zhenghua, in the early stage of foundation building, the second hundred and twenty-seventh on the list;
Jiang Yunhao, in the early stage of foundation building, the land list was two hundred and thirty-nine
”
After the middle-aged man finished reading, he turned into a streamer and went away.
"It seems that I am still far away, Tongmai Sixfold! No, I have to improve my cultivation as soon as possible, and when the time comes, the power of the three major martial arts will be even stronger!"
When Jiang Huan heard that he had entered the list, he didn't have much joy, and secretly told himself to practice well.
"I really didn't expect Jiang Huan's strength to be so strong, it seems that I should give up!"
Outside the square, when Jiang Yunye was about to come to Jiang Huan to seek revenge, he happened to hear the news that Jiang Huan had entered the list of three talents, so he had to sigh and leave.
......
After returning from the trial tower, Jiang Yu said that he had the feeling of breaking through, so he went back to the room first, and Jiang Huan carefully told Nie Zifeng about some common sense of cultivation, and it was not until late at night that Nie Zifeng thanked Jiang Huan and left.
After Nie Zifeng left, Jiang Huan walked to the desk with the Qinglian Sword and looked at it carefully.
With a choking sound, Jiang Huan's Qinglian sword was quickly pulled out.
The moment the Qinglian Sword was drawn, the true qi in Jiang Huan's dantian erupted, and the sword scabbard suddenly hovered in the air, releasing a blue-green light curtain at the same time, enveloping Jiang Huan in it.
"Huh, there's a situation!"
Suddenly, several figures appeared in the void on the roof.
After these people appeared, one of them instantly printed his right hand downward, and an invisible one wrapped the room to prevent the green in the room from overflowing.
The other person waved his sleeves, and countless blue points of light dispersed in all directions, and each blue point of light entered silently, and in each student's room, it unconsciously submerged into everyone's eyebrows, and these students slowly fainted, and were carried to the bed by an invisible force.
At this time, a person patted his chest and said anxiously: "It's dangerous, it's dangerous!"
"It seems that it is really him, and its legend is true!" a soft, gentle voice sounded, with surprise in his words.
Then, several people submerged themselves into the void and waited quietly.
Jiang Huan looked at the strange light curtain around him, and the true qi in his body gushed out, constantly pouring into the Qinglian Sword in his hand.
"It's... What's going on?"
At this time, Jiang Huan couldn't move, looking at the strange changes in front of him, his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.
In the end, Jiang Huan's dantian and meridians became empty, and there was not the slightest trace of true qi.
On the other hand, the Qinglian Sword, which was dim before, was flashing with a faint blue light at this time, and there were wisps of silver-white qi on the sword body, which were constantly swimming.
After a while, those silver-white qi stopped swimming, escaped from the body of the Qinglian Sword, and then disappeared into Jiang Huan's dantian.
After all the silver and white qi escaped, on the body of the Qinglian sword, a pattern of the appearance of a green lotus appeared, and wisps of cyan aura flowed out of the sheath of the green lotus, flowing to the green lotus lines on the body of the Qinglian sword.
Suddenly, the Qinglian Sword broke away from Jiang Huan's hands and stood upright in the suspended void, releasing an incomparably dazzling blue-green light to the surroundings, and Jiang Huan was also stimulated by this light and couldn't open his eyes.
Although Jiang Huan couldn't open his eyes to see, his powerful perception still sensed something unusual, and when those rays of light spread around the room, they were blocked by an invisible film, covering up the dazzling color.
At this time, the Qinglian Sword suddenly turned into a green light, and instantly rushed into the Jianghuan Dantian.
At the same time, Jiang Huan felt a hot breath in the dantian rush into his mind, and he fell down in a daze.
After Jiang Huan fainted, the Qinglian scabbard stopped rotating, and it also submerged into Jiang Huan's dantian.
......
In a drowsy state, Jiang Huan only felt that his consciousness was confused at this time, and he was constantly walking forward, walking towards the bright light in front of him.
Gradually, Jiang Huan's eyes suddenly lit up, he looked around, and found that he was standing on a city wall.
At this time, Jiang Huan was attracted by the scene in the distance.
Jiang Huan looked around, and saw that not far outside the city, a scribe with long hair and a blue robe was standing, carrying a sword, and there were about hundreds of thousands of troops lined up in front of him.
The cyan robe looked extremely monotonous in front of hundreds of thousands of people, and his hair and robe were gently blown by the breeze, giving people an indescribable feeling.
When Jiang Huan looked at those armies, his eyes suddenly froze, because he found that among the hundreds of thousands of troops, at least half of them were bald like Xuantong, and the rest of them were all bubbling with a trace of black gas.
Jiang Huan even found that these hundreds of thousands of people were all cultivators, but he couldn't see through their cultivation, but when Jiang Huan looked at them, there was an invisible pressure that made him breathless.
"Those bald heads are people from the Buddha Kingdom, and the black qi on the other bodies makes people so disgusted, could it be that they are demons?"
Jiang Huan looked at the scene in front of him and whispered to himself: "But didn't the second uncle say that the Buddha and the demon are not mutually exclusive? Why did they gather an army together, and who would the blue-robed man be? In the face of such an army of cultivators, he could still be so light-hearted!"
Suddenly, a leisurely voice came.
"Hahaha, chivalrous travel the world, travel the world"
The green-robed man suddenly spoke, and at the same time drew the sword behind his back.
"What! Qinglian Sword! Could it be that he is... Li Bai!" Jiang Huan said dumbly when he saw the sword.
At the same time as the green-robed man spoke, hundreds of thousands of troops suddenly turned into streamers and rushed towards the green-robed man.
Those people were holding spiritual treasures in their hands, and they were all in different styles.
In an instant, the outside of the city lit up with lights of different colors.
"Ah, be careful!" Jiang Huan exclaimed worriedly.
At this time, when some attacks were about to fall on Li Bai, Li Bai's figure dissipated instantly, and his voice kept echoing in the void.
"How could this be! Didn't Elder Li say that Li Bai was the dean of the Academy of Literature? Could it be that he was also a cultivator!" When Li Bai's voice sounded in the void, Jiang Huan's eyes widened and he whispered in disbelief.
"Zhao Keman Hu Ying, Wu Hook Shuang Xueming!"
After the voice fell, Li Bai's figure appeared in the sky, and at the same time, the Qinglian Sword in his hand slashed downward, and a silver-white sword light flew down at a high speed.
After a sword swing, Li Bai stood calmly in the void, looking down below.
Bang bang bang......
When the sword light fell, hundreds of thousands of troops dissipated in an instant, and the people around them were also injured by the aftermath.
The surviving people looked at Li Bai in the sky with fear, and the hand holding the spirit treasure trembled non-stop, and they no longer had the courage to step forward.
"A sword... With just one sword, hundreds of thousands of Xiuzhen troops were wiped out... Who is Li Bai?" Jiang Huan witnessed the fall of the sword light and the disappearance of those people, such a shocking scene made Jiang Huan unable to calm down for a long time, and looked at the figure in the void in a daze.
At this time, Li Bai looked into the distance and said calmly: "Come out, don't let these people come to death!"
As soon as Li Bai's words fell, seven figures appeared in front of Li Bai in an instant, and one of them said with a bald head.
"It's good, it's not impossible to stop fighting, but I hope that Master Li Shi can return to the Buddha country with the poor monk and repent to the five holy places!"
"Hehe, what a confession!"
When Li Bai heard this, he sneered and looked at the other party with mocking eyes.
"Gurgle... You old bald asses are really fake! Li Bai, I'll just say it directly! You hand over your things, and my eldest brother and I will protect you!" a woman with a thick black body followed and said.
"Hahaha... Your Buddha Kingdom and the Demon Sect are too underestimating Li! Since you have come out, then Li will send you on your way!"
Li Bailang laughed loudly, and at the same time, the Qinglian Sword waved quickly and slowly, and suddenly shouted.
"Qinglian Swordsman Qinglian Sword, Qinglian Sword Domain, I am the sky!"
When the seven of them heard this, their faces changed drastically, as if they had seen something extremely terrifying.
At the same time as Li Bai opened his mouth, he saw that above the body of the Qinglian sword, countless lotus flowers suddenly escaped, and instantly surrounded the seven people and the remaining army below.
At this moment, Jiang Huan, who was outside, only saw a sea of lotus flowers in front of him, and everyone outside the city was wrapped in it.
In the sea of flowers, I saw Li Baiqinglian's sword gently stirring, and said regretfully: "I'm sorry! For the sake of the human race! I can only do this!"
"Li Bai, good intentions! It turns out that you have reached this point! I am not wronged to die, hahaha......" In the sea of flowers, a majestic laughter came out.
"Good, good, we've done our best!" said the five bald heads calmly with their hands folded.
When Li Bai said "Qinglian Sword Domain", the seven knew that there was no chance, and in this seemingly beautiful and unparalleled lotus ocean, they had no strength to fight back, because Li Bai had already come to that point.
"Qinglian Sword Rain!" Li Bai drank softly, and the Qinglian Sword Void slashed.
I saw endless lotus flowers spinning and flying, and countless silver-white lightning bolts swimming in the sea of flowers.
Bang bang bang......
Suddenly, the sea of lotus flowers in front of Jiang Huan's eyes bloomed with dazzling brilliance, and Jiang Huan only felt a blank white patch in his eyes.
"Hey, wake up, wake up!" a childish voice sounded.
Jiang Huan's consciousness was shocked, and when he opened his eyes, there was a cyan transparent baby suspended in front of him, and he was still staring at himself with big eyes.
"Hmm... What kind of place is this? ...... just now" Jiang Huan looked at the white expanse around him, remembered the scene just now, and said suspiciously.
"Of course this is in the Qinglian Sword! You here are just a wisp of consciousness!Hahaha, you are so stupid..."The cyan baby suddenly spoke.
"Huh... What are you? What do you mean? What do you mean by what you say?" Jiang Huan had heard about demons and demons since he was a child, so he was not afraid when he saw this cyan baby, but looked at this little thing with great curiosity.
"Of course I can speak!Because I'm the sword spirit of the Qinglian Sword!, but I didn't expect my new master to be so weak!Oh my God!!!" said the cyan baby with big eyes and a feeling of disappointment.
"Sword Spirit, what is Sword Spirit? Besides, doesn't Qinglian Sword say that it is a mortal sword? How can this be!" Jiang Huan asked again.
The sword spirit continued Jiang Huan to explain: "Spirit, it is a thing with spiritual intelligence! Therefore, if you use the Heavenly Tribulation to forge a sword, you will have a chance to appear a sword spirit!"
According to the sword spirit...
Thousands of years ago, the Qinglian Sword was indeed an ordinary sword, but Li Bai used Haoran Qi as a medium to train the Qinglian Sword into an extraordinary, non-spiritual sword when he crossed the tribulation.
Because of the Heavenly Tribulation and Haoran Qi, the forged Qinglian Sword, when it was in Li Bai's hands, was better than all spiritual treasures, but when it was in the hands of others, it was like scrap iron.
After Li Bai's continuous exploration, he knew that only people with Haoran Qi could exert the power of the Qinglian Sword, so for thousands of years, except for Li Bai, no one could use the Qinglian Sword, and it was said to be a mortal sword.
When Li Bai ascended, he left the Qinglian Sword and sealed it with a trace of Haoran Qi, only when he met a person with Haoran Qi and pulled out the Qinglian Sword, the Qinglian Sword and the scabbard would work together to break the seal, which was exactly what Jiang Huan had seen before.
"Then according to what you say, Li Bai is also a person with a heroic aura?" Jiang Huan asked excitedly.
"Of course! At the beginning, the master took me to suppress the world, and after that battle, those places were swept away!" said the sword spirit excitedly.
"That battle, could it be that I just saw that battle?" Jiang Huan asked.
"That's right, it's that battle!" said the Sword Spirit with a nod.
Then, the sword spirit became a little depressed, and said sadly: "But when the master left, he was worried that those people would come back, so he left me ......"
Seeing this, Jiang Huan hurriedly comforted: "Don't be sad... Let me take you to Li Bai in the future, how about it?"
Hearing this, the sword spirit nodded excitedly, and kept swimming around Jiang Huan.
"By the way, you just said that this is in the Qinglian Sword Body, what's going on?" Jiang Huan asked with his hand holding the sword spirit.
"The current Qinglian Sword is already in your dantian! Your consciousness was also pulled in by me!" The sword spirit swam to Jiang Huan's shoulder, and said with Erlang's legs crossed.
"In the dantian, is that because of the Haoran Qi in my body?" Jiang Huan thought for a moment and said.
The sword spirit fluttered in front of Jiang Huan's eyes again, and nodded in acknowledgement.
"By the way, you are now my new master for the time being! This "Chivalrous Journey" sword trick was left to you by the master. There is one more thing, the old master said that he will wait for you to tell you in Ning Yuan Realm!"
With a little right hand of the sword spirit, the content of "Chivalrous Journey" turned into a blue light and flowed into Jiang Huan's mind.
