In the territory of Lingzhou, there is a big river quite famous, called "Yellow River", the Yellow River originates from the tip of the pot hat at the northwest foot of Baishanzu, stretches from northwest to southeast for more than 800 miles, and then flows into the sea.

Among them, the Yellow River passes through a number of relatively large villages and towns in Lingzhou, from northwest to southeast, such as: the closest to Zhongzhou and bordering the 'Yumen Town', then the largest county town in Lingzhou 'Wangchuan City', and then along the way down is 'Jingning Town', and at the foot of the Lotus Peak 'Songyang Town' and so on.

These are some of the main towns that pass through the city, but there are far more places it passes through than that, so I won't go into them here, but it should be emphasized that the Yellow River is not famous because of its length.

So, what is it that makes it famous?

It all goes back to a summer 100 years ago.

At that time, it was the rainy season in Lingzhou, on the Yellow River, after several days of heavy rain, the river water undoubtedly rose very fast, and because the people at that time, the river drainage system was not perfect, so that the river flooded into a disaster, not only washed down the embankment of the fertile land, but also swept away some farmhouses and pigsties near the river, and hundreds of people were displaced during that time, miserable. At that time, a small village called Shinomura (now Wangchuan Castle) was facing a bleak situation where almost the entire village would be washed away due to the low terrain where the village was located.

But just as the people were standing on the hillside on the outskirts of the village, desperately waiting for the river to continue to rise and mercilessly sweep away the entire village, a figure suddenly descended from the sky and saved the entire village by an incredible means.

The situation at that time subverted the imagination of all the villagers present, and they saw this outsider walking in the air, just like an immortal descending to earth, and swung a sword at the already flooded Yellow River.

This sword, the sword aura is vast, with a momentum like opening the world, directly on the basis of the original Yellow River, opened up a huge ravine, so that the original only two zhang wide river surface instantly became more than four zhang.

After the river widened, it undoubtedly increased the amount of water inflow, and also eased the water level to continue to rise.

Feeling that their village had been saved, the villagers knelt down to thank the fairy-like man in heaven, but the man did not care about it. He did not stay too long, but continued south along the Yellow River, because he knew that there were still many villages besieged by the river, such as 'Shinomura', waiting for him to come and rescue them.

In the river, the sound of the waves does not stop.

But in the sky, there are immortals who are crossing to the south.

In the end, this man followed the 800-mile Yellow River, used countless swords, and single-handedly rescued all the people affected by this river, becoming an immortal legend in Lingzhou, and at the same time, he also made this Yellow River famous on the continent of Wuzhou. Even in the current Wangchuan Castle, in the place where the immortal-like man used his sword, there is still a stone tablet that records his great deeds at that time.

It is inscribed:

In the tenth year of the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there were floods in Lingzhou, endangering hundreds of people.

Later, an immortal opened the river with a sword and saved everyone from the dire situation.

Engraver: Zhou Jue.

In Wangchuan City, almost everyone knows who this person named Zhou Jue is, but few people know that Zhou Jue is one of the people who witnessed the whole process, and no one knows that he was only nine years old at that time, and he resolutely embarked on the path of cultivation after seeing the sword like an immortal open the river.

......

Inside the Lotus Sect.

On the martial arts training square, Zhou Xian looked at Xu Yan who was finally met by him in front of him, and the light in his eyes instantly became hot.

For this Xu Yan, who snatched away the benefits that originally belonged to him, such as Fuyao, such as becoming Zhao Bailian's personal disciple, such as being able to practice on the main peak', Zhou Xian can be said to hate it to the bone, if it weren't for this person, his strength might be much higher than now.

Zhou Xian looked at Xu Yan in front of him coldly, and did not hurry to make a move, but said sarcastically: "The surname Xu, I didn't expect that you really went to the last round, it seems that you are destined to fall into my hands." ”

Xu Yan is extremely disgusted with people like Zhou Xian, such as the other party's character, which is the kind of gloomy character, and the means of acting are extremely ruthless, as long as the person who is targeted by him, he will not go away and want to find an opportunity to be ruthless, of course, these are not the most disgusting places for him, Xu Yan is most disgusted is that the other party always likes to ridicule a few words in front of him when he has nothing to do, as if he doesn't say two cruel words, the other party will be uncomfortable.

Xu Yan said indifferently: "There is so much time to talk nonsense, it is better to show some real skills, do you rely on your mouth to compare?"

Zhou Xian is undoubtedly the kind of person who is used to being praised by people on weekdays, so when facing someone like Xu Yan who dares to confront him head-on, his temper will become irritable uncontrollably. Sure enough, after Xu Yan's irony, Zhou Xian was furious and said: "Okay, very good, since you are so anxious to step down, I will fulfill you." ”

After saying that, Zhou Xian controlled the red candle in the air and threw it at Xu Yan suddenly.

As soon as the sword came out, there was a faint sound of galloping wind.

Xu Yan faced this sword, his face was unwavering, and he immediately controlled Fuyao and collided with the opponent's sword.

Bang of the bell!

After the two flying swords collided in the air, they exploded back in the air one after another, and each flew back to the side of its master.

Under the temptation of a sword, Zhou Xian found that the other party's swordsmanship was on par with his own, and his face suddenly sank.

Xu Yan cultivated many years later than him, which shows how domineering the physique of the heavenly spiritual root on the other party's body is, this is simply a natural sword blank, compared to his earth spiritual root, it is even better. As soon as he thought of this, the killing intent in Zhou Xian's heart became even worse, if he continued like this, he would grow up for Xu Yan for a few years, and when the latter stepped into the middle three realms, he would probably not be an opponent, and at that time, he would have no chance to compete with him for the benefits of the Lotus Sect.

And once he loses this opportunity, it will undoubtedly affect his status in the family, the ancestor is closed, but the only one in the family, and by His Majesty to the latter of the personal sword weapon passed to him, if he can't come up with some signs of inheriting the family business, Nuo Da is a Zhou family, just his own brother, but there are two.

Zhou Xian's eyes were full of murderous energy, but he quickly disappeared, after all, this was just a competition for the top spot in front of him, and he couldn't kill people here at all, but even so, he wouldn't let Xu Yan have a good time, because he was bound to get the sword trick that could only be obtained in the first place. This is almost the most useful thing he has ever received since he joined the sect for three years.

A powerful sword aura erupted from above the red candle.

Facing the spring breeze, the red candle drew a huge arc in the air, and then slashed towards Xu Yan.

It was a dazzling battle of swordsmanship, which was something that all the disciples present had never expected, but it was indeed wonderful, and this method was the reason why they were eager to enter the middle three realms, because as long as they could open up two qi mansions, then they would all be able to start practicing swordsmanship, so as to truly step into the immortal world of sword flying.

The huge sword qi was several zhang long, and it broke through the air with a red candle.

Xu Yan was expressionless when he saw this sword, obviously the other party was still despising him, otherwise it would be impossible for him to use the word to kill himself when he knew that he had learned the four-character sword technique.

Xu Yan pinched his fingers without the slightest pause, and also controlled Fuyao to burst out a powerful sword qi, colliding with the opponent head-on in the air.

Word to word!

After a while, the two sword qi suddenly erupted with an astonishing momentum, slowly spreading out in all directions, like firecrackers exploding in the air.

When Zhou Xian saw this scene, his face turned pale, and he shouted coldly: "You despicable person who can only steal other people's sword moves, I want to see if you still have the ability to steal my sword moves." ”

After Zhou Xian finished speaking, the red candle swept back again, levitating in front of him.

The next moment, Xu Yan opened his eyes and saw that the other party was obviously changing into a new technique in the gesture of pinching the trick.

Successfully forced the other party to use different sword tricks, Xu Yan didn't dare to say that he had succeeded most of the time, after all, the two swords that the other party used at random before could only be said to be tentative moves, and the other party's real ability was far from being used.

Different from the four-character sword technique created by Song Yu himself, when Zhou Xian controlled the red candle to fly out again, the sword qi wrapped in it was no longer as simple as sword qi, it was more like a river that turned into a volley flowing in an instant.

The water in the river is surging, as if Zhou Xian is hanging a Milky Way in the sky above Lianwu Square.

Immediately, the sword body of the red candle was instantly magnified several times, like a lonely boat sailing into the Milky Way and moving forward quickly, and finally frantically surged towards Xu Yan on the opposite side.

When Xu Yan saw this scene, his face was quite solemn, he didn't dare to be careless, his hand kept shaking, and the Seven Star Sword Technique instantly worked in his body.

A silver thread swept from Xu Yan's hand towards the river in the sky, but when the silver thread touched this river, it sank into the sea like a stone, and there was no more news.

When Xu Yan saw this treacherous scene, his heart sank, this is not easy to do.

Zhou Xian, who was on the other side, was trying his best to control the red candle to move forward in the river at this moment, and naturally saw Xu Yan's sword this time, and immediately sneered, and said sarcastically: "I don't think I can do anything." ”

Xu Yan ignored the other party's ridicule, because at this time, the other party's red candle had already floated above his head.

The river floats in the air, and the red candle is like a boat.

Then, a huge wave smashed down with the sword boat towards Xu Yan's head.

Xu Yan only felt that it was dark in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, he was already in a strange space.

This is a world that Xu Yan has never seen before, he looked around, took a closer look, and then found that under his feet, it was the previous big river flowing, in which the river water was still the same, but the difference was that the river in front of him was yellow, as if it had just been rained, and countless loess had merged into it.

......

In the subjective battle area, Song Yu's face became a little solemn after seeing his personal disciple make a big river out of thin air, because similar to this kind of profound sword technique, even he himself would not know, let alone whether he could teach it to Zhou Xian.

However, when he thought about it a little deeper, he understood the origin and reason for it.

When Zhao Bailian saw this scene, she didn't say much, her face was still very calm, and apart from him, among the five people present, only Feng Yuanshan's face did not show too much surprise. After Wang Chu saw this scene, he couldn't help but joke to Song Yu: "Elder Song, the sword technique that your disciple is using now is really a bit profound, but I don't know if it was passed down by Elder Song himself, or by other elders of your Chunzi Sect, tsk, no wonder you looked down on my alchemy before." ”

Song Yu himself is an old man, so he naturally knows the other party's intention when he said this, so he replied in a cold voice: "Why does Elder Wang repeatedly have trouble with the old man?"

When Wang Chu heard this, his face was shocked and said: "What is Elder Song talking about, I just asked if there is a question about Zhou Xian's nephew's exercises, why not? If it is inconvenient for Elder Song to say it, then if you don't say it, how can you say that Wang can't get along with you?"

Song Yu ignored Wang Chu, but directly turned to Zhao Bailian and said, "Sect Master, Elder Wang is so nonsense, you really don't care?" If the Sect Master feels that it makes you feel embarrassed in this matter, then it will be easy to do, the old man will find a place to breathe by himself." ”

When Zhao Bailian heard this, her face suddenly turned black, and she secretly thought in her heart, "This old fox can also break it, and he actually threw the mess on me again, let me clean it up." ”

However, after Zhao Bailian saw Song Yu showing a distressed look, he knew that he could no longer pretend to turn a blind eye to this after all, and then he had to wave his hand to Wang Chu, signaling him to settle the matter.

......

After Xu Yan carefully examined the world in front of him, he couldn't help but recall that when Cardinal was helping him feed the sword, he asked him if he wanted to try a sword move created by her, and after he agreed, he was inexplicably brought into a new world by the other party.

That world full of downpours was not much different from the world he saw in front of him, so Xu Yan could basically confirm by now that he was most likely caught in the sword of the red candle by Zhou Xian. However, while he was still thinking, the river under his feet suddenly burst into flames, and then a huge column of water broke away from the river and into the air.

The water column turned into a sword in an instant.

Without the slightest pause, it flew straight towards Xu Yan's chest.

Xu Yan saw the water sword shooting towards him, and instantly swept back from the river, but at the same time, he did not forget to swing the fuyao in his hand violently out a few brilliant sword flowers, bringing a stream of silver light to emerge. Xu Yan flew out for nearly a hundred zhang in ten breaths, and when he condensed the sword intent in his hand to perfection, he suddenly stopped, aimed the sword qi in his hand at the chasing sword qi, and swung down.

The brilliant silver light collided with the sword qi condensed by the river water.

I saw that the silver light sword qi was still moving forward, but the water sword had been completely shattered, turning into water droplets in the sky and falling into the surging river.

Zhou Xian's face was extremely gloomy when he saw this scene, he used the power of this red candle's sword spirit as a cultivator who had just entered the four-story building, and the time he could maintain was quite limited, so he didn't dare to have the slightest stagnation, and directly controlled the two rivers to continue to transform into two huge and incomparable sword qi, and slashed towards Xu Yan frantically.

These two sword qi, compared to the previous sword, have doubled in momentum, and they have skyrocketed to nearly fifty zhang in size, as if they were formed by half of the river.

Xu Yan felt the powerful sword intent carried by the two new sword qi of the other party, and he could already detect a trace of the dangerous aura that made him jealous, and it was obvious that the opponent's attack at this level was no better than the last sword of Chen Qinghe when he fought against him yesterday.

These are the two super swords that far surpass what the sword cultivators of the lower three realms can withstand.

Two sword qi crossed the river.

It was like two huge sea beasts rushing towards Xu Yan.

Seeing this, Xu Yan was also ruthless in his heart, and once again used the Seven Star Sword Technique, but this time, he directly skipped the previous six styles and used the strongest sword he could control so far.

Neither of them has the slightest bit of clumsiness.

The seven-star sword light penetrated this heaven and earth like an aurora, directly shattering the opponent's first sword qi.

The rivers in the sky exploded violently, and they all fell rapidly from the sky, as if there was a torrential rain in this small world, but at the same moment, the seven-star sword light condensed by Xu Yan also dimmed most of it in an instant.

Immediately after, the seven-star sword light collided with Zhou Xian's second sword qi again.

There was a loud bang in the sky!

However, the seven-star sword light took the lead in not being able to withstand the other party's sword intent, and dissipated above the river, leaving no trace.

When Zhou Xian saw this scene, his cold face finally showed a hint of satisfaction, and he continued to open his eyes and watch his sword qi surging towards Xu Yan, as if he had seen what happened when the other party was defeated.

There was no accident, the sword qi directly hit Xu Yan's body, which gave Xu Yan the feeling that he was once again going to withstand the infinite impact from the rapid torrent, but compared to yesterday, he was more like facing the impact of an entire river at the moment, and confronting it.

A carp covered in gold with two horns on its head swam out from the center of Xu Yan's eyebrows, and in an instant, it turned into an armor wrapped around Xu Yan's body.

Zhou Xian finally forced out Xu Yan's last hole card, and the true qi at the peak of the four grades of martial arts was released.

The sword qi in the sky all washed over, revealing Xu Yan's soaked and embarrassed figure, and after Zhou Xian saw this, his face directly brought an almost unbelievable look.

He exclaimed, "No...... This is impossible, how can you resist my sword qi with the strength of your physical body alone, this is absolutely impossible!"

Xu Yan had already collected his true qi at the last moment when the opponent's sword qi was about to dissipate, and naturally he was not noticed by the other party that he was a martial cultivator, but replied coldly: "There is nothing impossible in this world, if you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist, that can only prove that you are lonely and unheard." ”

Zhou Xian was already a little overwhelmed when he saw that the other party was safe and sound, and now after hearing the other party's words, he was even more angry and speechless, but what made him feel bad was that he was aware that the world he had created finally showed a hint of collapse, which would mean that the energy in the two qi mansions in his body would be exhausted.

Zhou Xian looked at Xu Yan, and after a period of pain, his face finally showed a trace of hideousness, he gritted his teeth and said, "You forced me!"

Xu Yan didn't understand the meaning of his words, so he saw Zhou Xian roaring angrily at this piece of heaven and earth, "Zhou Xian has the courage to borrow a sword from the ancestor!"

After a word.

The entire river under Xu Yan's feet turned into a shocking giant sword, slashing at his body from afar.

When Song Yu in the subjective war zone saw this scene, he immediately shouted angrily, "Presumptuous!" and wanted to stop Zhou Xian, but unexpectedly, he was the first to be stopped by Zhao Bailian reaching out.

A sword aura flew out from Xu Yan's eyebrows.

It looked like it was only the size of a tea leaf, but when it flew out a foot, it transformed into a three-foot sword.

Then this three-foot long sword was aimed at Zhou Xian's shocking sword that he 'borrowed' by some means.

The sword qi in the sky dissipated.

Silence was restored between heaven and earth.

Xu Yan's eyes flashed, and he returned to the Lotus Sect's martial arts practice square again.

It was as if nothing had happened, but Xu Yan remembered very clearly how shocking the sword qi he used at the end was, but it was a pity that the four leaves that were originally suspended in his qi mansion were missing one in vain.

The sword qi is like a real sword, and the sword is three feet long.

Break the river with a sword!

Zhou Xian, who had also regained his clarity, suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood after being stunned for a moment.

Then, his body slowly fell backwards, and he passed out completely.
