Chapter 48 Pinjian failed
As soon as the elder finished speaking, he glanced at the one hundred and thirteen people who had signed up, and directly took out one hundred and thirteen wrists from the space ring, and said: "The rules of our Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, the pavilion only tests the cultivator's understanding of the sword, the comprehension of the sword, and the cultivation realm of one's own sword, after entering the pavilion, you must limit your own cultivation to the ninth layer of the air path, this forbidden yuan ring, please wear it!"
The forbidden yuan ring, as the name suggests, is to prohibit the user's true yuan!
Everyone came to participate in the assessment of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, and they naturally knew the rules of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion very well, and they wore this forbidden ring one by one, and Gu Qing was naturally no exception.
After wearing the Forbidden Yuan Ring, a powerful imprisoning force was immediately released in this spiritual treasure, quickly isolating the cultivator's induction power from his own True Yuan, leaving only a trace of "faint" True Qi equivalent to a ninefold master of the Qi Path, which was used to deal with the various dangers that might arise in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion in the future.
After seeing everyone wearing the forbidden yuan ring, the elder immediately took Gu Qing and some young junjie who signed up with him to enter the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion together.
As soon as the elders left with one hundred and fourteen people, the remaining elders immediately gathered together.
These elders have been in charge of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion for so many years, and they know everything about the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, and with the stroke of the elder who has practiced the Golden Pill, he immediately took out a mirror-shaped magic weapon from the space ring, and what appeared in that mirror was Gu Qing and the others who were heading to the first floor of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion.
...... "Alright guys!"
After taking Gu Qing and the others to the door of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, several elders glanced at them and said cautiously: "Everyone, you must already understand the danger level of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, please set the target at several layers according to your own strength, don't be too ambitious, do something beyond your power!"
One hundred and fourteen nodded slightly.
Many of them had already broken into this Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion more than once, and they were naturally very clear about all the rules of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion.
"Okay guys, do you have any questions to add, if not, please go in! After passing through each floor, there is an elder guarding the town, if you want to quit, you can let that elder take you out of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion!"
"This elder!"
"En!" The gaze of the named elder immediately fell on Gu Qing, and a slight smile appeared on his face: "Gu Qing, do you have anything to ask?"
"On the seventh floor of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, you can be summoned by the Supreme Elders of your sect, if you want to see the Supreme Sect Master, I don't know how many layers you need to break through!?"
"En, you want to see you worship under our Sect Leader Supreme!" The elder was slightly stunned, and then immediately laughed: "Don't worry, anyone, as long as you break through to the sixth layer, the top level of our One Sword Sect will pay attention to it, such as Wang Tianhua and Hong Chen, there are already a few Supreme Elders who have paid a little attention to them, if you can break through the seventh layer and show amazing kendo talent, presumably the Supreme Sect Master will immediately summon the Elder of the Guardian Pavilion and ask the Elder of the Guardian Pavilion to take you to meet him!"
Gu Qing nodded.
"Okay, since everyone is fine, then please! First-tier sword, I hope you won't disappoint me!" After the elder finished speaking, he especially glanced at Gu Qing, obviously, they were eager to know if this Gu Qing was like the Sword Saint Nian Wusheng said, and his sword path cultivation was even higher than him.
As the elders opened the door of the first floor of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, one hundred and fourteen people entered the first floor at the same time.
The area of this Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion is extremely huge, although the first floor is a hall, but its area is definitely more than 100,000 square meters! In this layer, there are countless spiritual pillars carved, and each spiritual pillar is enshrined with a famous sword, these famous swords are either from the famous masters, or unearthed in ancient times, or refined by the Shinto Supreme...... Sword cultivators must know swords!
The first layer of this Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion is to ask the interloders to distinguish the swords, and according to visual inspection, tell the quality and texture of at least three swords, and the origin.
After everyone entered the first floor of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, they separated!
When they signed up, the eyes of the elders and elders were almost all attracted by Gu Qing, ignoring their existence, and they were depressed in their hearts, wanting to vent it now and prove to these elders that they were the real kendo masters!
Seeing that these disciples left to look for the sword to identify it, several elders who followed Gu Qing couldn't help but smile and said, "Okay Gu Qing, choose three, I believe that with your sword dao attainments, this first layer will not be difficult for you at all." ”
“......”
Gu Qing silently came to a spiritual pillar, and under the expectant gaze of all the elders, he carefully looked at the famous sword placed in front of him!
A minute passed!
Ten minutes have passed!
Half an hour has passed!
An hour has passed!
Time just passed slowly.
I have to say that judging the quality of a sword just from its appearance, and even judging his materials after starting with the sword, this is really not an easy thing for Gu Qing...... Although he has an extremely high sword path cultivation, it is basically from the awakened memories of the ancient Qing Emperor!
As for the sword, as well as the birth, origin, and background of these swords, it is definitely far inferior to Nian Wusheng, and even inferior to the vast majority of people present, after staring at this sword for three full hours, and waving it for a while, he can only vaguely identify some of the advantages and disadvantages of this sword, as for its texture and origin...... Seeing Gu Qing stunned in front of a sword for several hours, the few elders who followed him were a little stunned.
Although they knew that as examiners, they should not disturb Gu Qing's thinking about this sword, but right now, at least sixty or seventy people had already entered the second layer, and Gu Qing, who they had high hopes for, hadn't even recognized a sword, which was really a bit unreasonable!
"Gu Qing, can't you see the merits and texture of this sword?"
Gu Qing pondered for a moment, he really couldn't tell the reason for this sword, Suo admitted and nodded.
At his head, several elders, including those outside the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, who were watching with the help of the Spirit Weapon Mirror were a little disappointed.
Of course, it's just disappointment, they won't be discouraged by Gu Qing because he didn't recognize this sword, no matter how powerful the master is, there will be times when the boat capsizes in the gutter!
"It's okay, this sword won't work, let's just change the sword. ”
After Gu Qing glanced at the few swords on the spirit pillar next to him, he shook his head: "No need, these swords were not created by me, so it is really difficult for me to express their quality." ”
"Huh?"
When an elder at the head heard him say this, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "We have a total of nineteen thousand six hundred and forty-one famous swords and swords on the first layer, and some of them were once even more prestigious, prosperous for a while, and were famous all over the country, and were recorded in many weapons genealogies...... Since you are a kendo master, you must be obsessed with kendo, and you have spent countless hours in your life studying kendo classics, and among so many swords, you can always break three of them......"
"Does kendo have anything to do with the origin of these swords?"
As soon as these words came out, a person who had no good impression of Gu Qing immediately laughed: "A person who can't even recognize a few famous swords in the world, and he is still called a master of swordsmanship, it is a little self-conscious." Pinjian is an attitude towards swords, and only cultivators who are really born for swords and have spent countless hours on the path of swords can understand the origin and history of a sword. If you don't know where the sword in your hand comes from, who forged it, and what texture it is forged from, how can you establish a relationship with the sword in your hand, and know every sword you swing!"
The other elders nodded slightly.
"What this Taoist friend said is reasonable, Gu Qing, a sword practitioner can't fail to know the sword! If he can't distinguish the sword in his hand, how can he see the sword in his heart clearly!"
Attitude towards the sword!
Gu Qing is definitely not a qualified swordsman in terms of his attitude towards swords, not only the earth but also the giant que, he has never studied swordsmanship books at all!
However, he had to pass the first level, and then continue to move forward step by step, until he alarmed the Supreme Master of the Guiyi Sword Sect, if he was brushed down in the first level...... Thinking of this, he muttered: "The understanding of the sword is not the understanding of the sword itself, but the understanding of the spirit of the sword, and seeing clearly the spirit of the sword in the heart is equivalent to seeing through the essence of the sword! The sword is a tool called the sword, the real sword, that contains all things in heaven and earth! As long as there is the spirit of the sword in the heart, the spirit goes, holding the sword and holding the gun, the willow tree breaking the branches, everything can be a sword!"
"This ......"
Several elders beside Gu Qing frowned: "Although your words are reasonable, however, the first level of our Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion is the first level of the sword, if you can't taste the first layer of the origin and texture of the sword......"
At this time, the person who didn't like Gu Qing very well laughed: "I can understand why Your Excellency Nian Wusheng of your sect admires him so much. Although this Gu Qing's understanding of swords and his own kendo cultivation are extremely weak, his ability to talk on paper is first-class, and the more powerful people listen to his nonsense, the more confused they will become...... Presumably, His Excellency Nian Wusheng was one of them, and from this, I am almost certain that His Excellency Nian Wusheng must have never really fought against him! Otherwise, he would have been beheaded by His Excellency Nian Wusheng's sword at that time. ”
If Xu Xiaolin, who had not yet fallen at the moment, was here, she would definitely agree with this person's concept! She had seen the scene of Gu Qing and Nian Wusheng arguing about the way of the sword with her own eyes, but in the end, there was only one sentence - the sword saint Nian Wusheng was so miserable that he was fooled by his own young master!
"This ......"
When several elders heard the words of the interloper, they couldn't help but look at each other a little, and they didn't know what to do for a while.
If according to the rules, Gu Qingpin can't get the details of the three swords, he will be regarded as a failure, and he doesn't even know much about the world's famous swords, how can he be a cultivator who is extremely obsessed with the way of the sword?
When these elders were in a dilemma, the many elders who were looking at everything in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion through the Heavenly Mirror were also discussing with each other: "Elders, look, Gu Qing is not considered a failure to break through......
"According to the rules, he did fail, but after all, Gu Qing is a person who is respected by Nian Wusheng, if he rashly eliminated him because he couldn't produce three swords, would he be reckless......
"yes, I think we should give him a chance to try it on the second floor!"
"Is it necessary to try, I think that the interlocutor Ning Yuzhong's words are good, this Gu Qing may just be a theorist! Nian Wusheng also said it, his regret is that he failed to fight with this Gu Qing and personally verify the level of each other's kendo cultivation, it can be seen that this Gu Qing is afraid of showing his feet, and deliberately avoids without fighting!"
"That being said...... If he avoids and doesn't fight, then why do we want to break through in the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion now?
"Elder Liu's and Elder Fang's words make sense......"
It was still the Jindan master who presided over the Sky Mirror who spoke: "Give him another chance, maybe he really has some ability! Hehe, the sword in his hand is just a sword shape, the real sword is the spirit of the sword, the will of the sword...... This truth is not something that everyone can say. ”
This Jindan master obviously had a lot of prestige among the many elders, and seeing him speak, the other elders stopped arguing, and each nodded, one of them had already summoned an elder beside Gu Qing to convey his order.
After receiving the summons, these elders were no longer embarrassed, and nodded directly: "Okay Gu Qing, the first layer is considered to have passed you, now, go to the second layer, I hope the second layer, you will not let us down again." ”
They didn't say anything in their words, but in their tones, there was obviously a trace of doubt about the origin of Gu Qing, a sword master.
Gu Qing had no choice but to nod.
He really didn't know about the history of these swords. Moreover, if there was no actual thing on the second floor of the Ten Thousand Swords Pavilion, he was afraid that he would really not be able to hold on and turn around and leave......
