Chapter 1: The Boy Who Dances the Sword

"Come like thunder to collect anger, like the river and the sea condense the clear light"

The sonorous chanting accompanied by the sound of dancing swords pierced out of a green bamboo forest. Following the sound of the sword, a young man in a green shirt around seventeen or eighteen years old danced with a bamboo sword. On the side, a beautiful girl in a snow-white dress stood quietly aside.

The turquoise bamboo leaves were blown off by the young man's sword qi, paving a turquoise bamboo leaf path.

"Brother!"

A sound as crisp as a silver bell came from not far away. A snow-white figure flashed past the young man in green shirt and entered the bamboo forest on the side.

The young man in the green shirt slowly put away his sword and walked towards the bamboo pavilion next to him with a smile.

"Rustling ......", a girl in a goose yellow dress walked lightly on the bamboo leaf path and walked towards the bamboo pavilion.

Maybe it's too far, or it's too hot in the bamboo forest, the girl's delicate face is dripping with beads of sweat, and her pink cheeks are dotted with clear pearls, like a hibiscus out of the water.

"Yao'er, why are you here?" asked the young man as he placed his sword on the stone table in the bamboo pavilion and turned to the girl who was walking.

"Why, who said I couldn't come here? Are you still afraid that I will peek at you, a genius of sword cultivation, practicing swords?" the girl pouted, feigning anger and said to the young man.

"Good, good...... If I'm wrong, you can sit down and make this your home, so it's okay!" the boy said to the girl.

"That's pretty much it!" said the girl as she sat down on the stone bench in the pavilion and picked up the bamboo sword that had been placed on the stone table for a thousand years. "Brother Yuxiao, didn't my father say that you have entered the late stage of refinement, why don't you practice the exercises of condensing Yuan Force?"

Those who cultivate immortals have their own realms. Ordinary people practicing martial arts can be regarded as the realm of refining the body at most, and they cannot condense the power of the true element. Breaking through the realm of refining the body, you will reach the realm of refinement. When the realm of refinement begins to condense the weak power of the true element, you can practice the exercises of condensing the power of the element. After condensing the true element, the power of the true element began to have attributes. The golden force is the gold system, the blue yuan force is the water system, the green yuan force is the mother system, the yellow yuan force is the earth system, and the red yuan force is the fire system.

The power of the true element is an innate attribute and cannot be changed the day after tomorrow.

Ordinary people can only have one attribute, but some extremely talented immortal cultivators will have two or more attributes. For example, Ling Yuezhen, the head of the world's No. 1 sword sect in the world, Kunlun Mountain, Tianyun City, has two attributes: water and gold. The difference between the strength of the realm of refinement and the realm of refining the body can be described as cloudy mud. Even those who faced seven or eight refinement realms in the early stage of refinement could have the upper hand, because the difference in strength between each realm was very obvious, let alone the difference in crossing a large realm. Of course, there are a few exceptions, such as people in the lower realm who have practiced very powerful cultivation techniques and sword techniques, or who have very strong combat power for other reasons.

Speaking of cultivation exercises, after the accumulation of tens of millions of years of immortal cultivators and the evolution of the ancient true immortal exercises, there are many kinds of cultivation exercises on the land of Central Continent. But in general, it can be divided into three levels: heaven, earth, and man, and each layer has three grades, with a total of nine grades. Cultivation exercises are also known as martial arts, and some of the advanced martial arts techniques include martial arts and body techniques in addition to cultivation exercises. The sword technique is similar to the martial technique, and it is also divided into three layers and nine grades.

Those who cultivate immortals have broken through the realm of refinement, which is the realm of Peiyuan. When he arrived at the realm of Peiyuan, the power of the true yuan gradually condensed into an entity, and as the cultivation progressed, if he was lucky enough to break through the realm of Peiyuan, then the power of the true yuan would begin to turn into reality and reach the realm of returning to the void. Returning to the realm of emptiness, breaking and then standing, can increase the life span of immortal cultivators by a hundred years. When the realm of returning to the void reaches the later stage, you can become a master, even if it is the first master of Jiyun City, where Luo Yuxiao lives, it is only in the early stage of returning to the void.

Once the breakthrough is restored, the power of the true element begins to transform into the power of the true spirit—then it reaches a realm that cannot be imagined by human beings.

"Swordsmanship is the foundation of a sword cultivator, if you can't even lay the foundation well, even if you can do it for the mountain, you will eventually fall short!" Qianqian looked at the Xiuzhu swaying in the wind in the distance, and said in a firm tone, "What's more, our Luo family's 'Fuliu Sword Technique' is a high-level sword technique of the highest grade of the human rank, how can it be cultivated overnight! Since my swordsmanship is not well cultivated, then I ...... it."

"Stop, stop, stop nagging! It's exactly the same as my father's tone, and I don't get too tired of talking every day!" said the girl, a little impatiently.

"That's the way it is! if you ......."

"Young master, young master, something is wrong!" a hurried call interrupted the argument between the two siblings.

"Luo Hui, what's wrong, it's so urgent!" the young man said calmly.

"Young master, I don't know the specifics, I only know that an hour ago, after the third master and his party came back, they hurriedly entered the master's room, and after a while, the eldest master also went, but it didn't take long to hear the sound of smashing things. Luo Hui couldn't care about the sweat on his head and continued, "Later, I heard that the eldest master came out to ask the little one to come to the bamboo forest to find you, and that's all the little one knows......

"This ......" The young man frowned and said in a low voice: "Luo Hui, you go back first, I'll go over!"

"Yes. After saying that, Luo Hui turned around and left.

"Yao'er, it shouldn't be a big deal, you don't have to rush back. Let's play here for a while......" The boy turned to the girl beside him.

"Okay, brother, be careful on the road. The girl said obediently.

The young man turned around and picked up the bamboo sword on the table, and left the bamboo forest with a move "Feiyan Three Stacks".

"Hmph! If you don't let me go back, you won't go back! What was that white shadow just now......" The girl muttered after the boy left......

The young man's name is Luo Yuxiao, and he is the largest sword cultivation family in Jiyun City, Qiyu Province, the Luo family, and the youngest generation has the highest talent for cultivating immortals. And the girl in yellow is his biological sister, Luo Yuyao. The Luo family, the leading sword cultivation family in Jiyun City, and the three families of Zhang Yechen stand tall in Jiyun City. Although Jiyun City is not very big, it can be regarded as a medium-sized city in the Qiyu Province to which it belongs. However, the older generation of the Luo family in Jiyun City had rescued the daughter of Han Su Zhenren, the former head of Tianyun City, and the wife of the current head Ling Yue Zhenren, and the elder of Tianyun City, Fu Fei Fairy, and had a very close relationship with Tianyun City, the first sword sect in the world. In addition, the current patriarch Luo Songyuan is a sword cultivation master in the early stage of returning to the void, which makes the various families in the surrounding cities very polite to the Luo family. Moreover, the Luo family has always believed in etiquette and righteousness, so it has a very good reputation in Jiyun City and the surrounding Taizhou City and Yunze City.

......

Luo's house, outside the council chamber.

"Father, I'm back. Luo Yuxiao, who had just returned home, said inside the door.

"Xiao'er is here, come in!" a slightly hoarse middle-aged man's voice came from inside the door.

Luo Yuxiao walked into the room, and there were four people in the room. Sitting in the middle in an ink-colored robe was the head of the Luo family, Luo Yuxiao's father, Luo Songyuan, a sword cultivation master in the early stage of returning to the void. On the left-hand side, also wearing a black robe, is the eldest elder of the family, Luo Songgang, a master in the late Peiyuan period. The blue-gray robe on the right hand side is Luo Yuxiao's eldest Boluo Songping, in the middle of Peiyuan. Da Bo Luo Songping next to the green shirt and bast shoes, dressed as a scholar is Luo Yuxiao's third uncle Luo Songan, a master in the middle of Peiyuan.

Speaking of Luo Songan, he was also a handsome son when he was young. Intoxicated by the wind and snow, coming and going in the fireworks alley, known as the merry boy in Jiyun City. At that time, although he also practiced, he was not hardworking. So in my twenties, I was still in the early stages of tempering. Just ten years ago, Luo Yuxiao's grandfather Luo Chengde died, and Luo Song'an, who had seen through the ruthlessness of the Qinglou woman, suddenly woke up. So he practiced diligently, and finally reached the middle stage of Peiyuan in less than fifteen years.

"Xiao'er has seen her father, the eldest elder, the eldest uncle, and the third uncle. Luo Yu hugged his fists.

Seeing the humble and polite Luo Yuxiao, everyone's original frowning brows also relaxed a little.

"Xiao'er, you sit down first. Song'an tell Xiao'er about it. "Luo Songyuan Road.

Waiting for Luo Yuxiao to sit down, Luo Songan spoke: "The matter starts with the batch of pearls that our Luo family bought from the fishermen in the East China Sea near Qingzhou City last month......

Pearls are abundant along the coast of the East China Sea in the land of Central Continent, and pearls can be used for healing in addition to being used as decorations for women in the boudoir. As for the Luo family, there are many sword cultivation disciples, and some disciples will be injured whether they are out hunting beasts or daily cultivation. As a result, healing medicine became precious. Buying healing medicine from the Chamber of Commerce, although the effect is good, the price is too high, even if the Luo family has a solid background, it cannot be consumed for a long time. Therefore, the Luo family hired some pharmacists to specialize in preparing various healing medicines. As the main recipe for healing medicine, the demand for pearls began to increase significantly. Buying pearls from the Chamber of Commerce was obviously not cheap, so the Luo family began to buy pearls in large quantities from fishermen along the East China Sea. And the Cao family near the East China Sea has always monopolized the aquatic energy near the East China Sea. Therefore, the Luo family's purchase of pearls by the East China Sea naturally blocked the Cao family's financial path. Therefore, after several transactions, the Cao family secretly sent someone to rob the Luo family caravan led by Luo Songan.

The Cao family can be described as a hegemon in the area of Qingzhou City! Cao De, the head of the Cao family, is a master in the late stage of the first return, and can be regarded as the number one master in Qingzhou and even in several surrounding cities. Cao De has two sons, the eldest Cao Pi and the second Cao Xiu are both masters in the early stage of returning to the void. Therefore, the Cao family is powerful and has been evil for a long time, so it is also notorious in the thirty-six cities of Qiyu.

After Luo Songan explained the cause and effect of the matter clearly, Luo Songyuan said: "Xiao'er, you are eighteen years old this year, and the elders in the family have always been very optimistic about you. So, this time, I also called you to talk about your opinion. ”

"Yes, Xiao'er, you have grown up, and the family will slowly be handed over to your younger generation to take care of. This time, you're going to tell me what you think. "Great Elder Luo Songgang said.

Luo Yuxiao arched his hand and said, "Since my father, uncle, and elders are so fond of each other, Xiao'er will take the axe and say what she thinks." I hope that the elders will bear more for the shortcomings. ”

Everyone looked at the gentle and humble Luo Yuxiao and couldn't help but smile slightly.

This Luo Yuxiao is well-known for his humility and courtesy in Jiyun City, whether it is the elders of the Luo family or the Ye family who are good friends with the Luo family, they all praise Luo Yuxiao. Even in the several cities around Jiyun City, many Huaichun girls secretly promised: Choose a husband like Luo Yuxiao!
