Chapter 78: Bustling North Peak
The sunset is changing colors on the western mountain, and the boundless red clouds have dyed the western mountain red.
Clouds change shape constantly.
The sunset gave the flowers, trees and grass in Changchun House a layer of light yellow dusk color. Lu Yuan was standing in the middle of the courtyard at this time, while Li Yuanbai with white beard and hair was also walking in the courtyard of Changchun House with his hands behind his back: "The sunset is infinitely good, only near dusk." How much meaning in one sentence of poetry.
Lu Yuan didn't make a sound, and now he doesn't need to make one either.
Li Yuanbai's hand moved at this moment, and the twilight spirit sword in the room was captured by him from the void. Just this move alone was far beyond what he could match, Lu Yuan thought to himself.
Li Yuanbai looked at Lu Yuan: "Today, let's try our hands and see the results of your two months of cultivation. What sword intent have you grasped?" Lu Yuan's swordsmanship had always been relatively independent, cultivating on his own without Li Yuanbai asking about it, allowing him to develop according to his own personality. This teaching method suited Lu Yuan well, as if he were forced to follow a rigid path, he would be ruined. It could be said that if Lu Yuan were under the tutelage of Junzi Sword Sect's Confucius, he would have been ruined.
Of course, although it was developed by Lu Yuan himself, he also had to inspect and verify the results of his cultivation.
If you can be a master for one day, then just be a master for one day.
Li Yuanbai sighed in his heart, this life, he only had one wife and one apprentice, his wife had long since passed away, leaving only the apprentice.
"You attack, if you can force me to move a single step, then I'll consider myself defeated." Li Yuanbai said calmly, although the sun was setting in the west, he was after all one of the Six Sword Sages of North Peak, and his true strength was unfathomable.
"Good." Lu Yuan nodded, his sword already half out of its scabbard. The bright blade shot straight at Li Yuanbai in a move called "Crazy Wind Crossing the Border".
A fierce storm swept through, extremely violent.
This move is a famous and ferocious technique among the 108 Wind Cloud Swords, its strike is like a raging storm sweeping across the land. Not only is it ferocious but also swift, the raging storm sweeps directly towards Li Yuanbai.
Li Yuanbai's hand moved slightly, and the Vertical Dusk Spirit Sword in his hand had already been raised to block the attack. It seemed that Lu Yuan's sword move was no different from before.
"Clouds come and winds disturb"
"The wind blows over the rivers and mountains, leaving no marks" One move after another, Li Yuanbai's sword moves were unfolding, and he felt more and more strange. His disciple's sword moves were almost the same as before, seemingly without any changes. What aspect of his two months of cultivation was worth studying?
At this moment, Lu Yuan made another move. The sword style was "Wind Unattainable". This move was the fastest in the 108 Wind Cloud Swords. Li Yuanbai didn't slow down or speed up, he was also familiar with the 108 Wind Cloud Swords and knew at least five ways to break this sword technique.
Just used a trick to break Luoyuan's move, and it was impossible to catch up with the wind.
At this moment, Li Bai changed color.
At this moment, Lu Yuan's sword speed doubled, so fast that it was almost impossible to catch up with the wind, and Li Yuanbai was about to react.
It's true, this is the moment Lu Yuan and others have been waiting for.
Start with other sword moves and use the previous speed to numb Master Li Yuanbai.
Then, suddenly use his current fastest sword speed, and cast the fastest move Wind Untraceable. This is Lu Yuan's plan to attack at the fastest speed.
Fencing is also about brains.
Just at this moment, Li Yuanbai's hand moved, his Vertical Spirit Sword moved at the fastest speed, and in an instant, Lu Yuan felt that his sword speed had been suddenly slowed down. Because of the slowdown in sword speed, his own extremely fast sword had already lost its power due to the sudden decrease in speed.
"The will of the setting sun sword, like the setting sun itself, can slow down the opponent's movements." Li Yuanbai said: "However, being able to force me to use the will of the setting sun sword, you are indeed quite good." Li Yuanbai sighed, this time testing his disciple's swordsmanship, but he didn't expect himself to be forced out of the will of the setting sun sword.
"It seems that your two months of cultivation have allowed your sword speed to increase by leaps and bounds, doubling its original speed. Very good." The Vertical Dusk Sword had already been sheathed, and since he had already tested his disciple's cultivation, there was no need to continue fighting.
Lu Yuan is also deep in thought now.
Master Li Yuanbai's previous move, the will of the setting sun sword was unfolded, and the action slowed down, and a dark feeling could be clearly felt. If the true will of the setting sun sword is fully unfolded, only an extremely dark surroundings can be felt, and the action is extremely slow. In comparison, once Sima Changbai's sword intent unfolds, it might be a brilliant light, scorching hot.
Simachangbai would turn against his own master, and it's not without reason.
If Shifu and Sima Longbai are both in their prime state, the confrontation between these two people will be very interesting.
"Right, Yuan's 500th birthday is in three days. I heard that Zhao Cang, the Cyan Sword of Xifeng Lianhua Peak from the Qi Sect, has also arrived. With him here, I'm afraid he'll be looking for trouble with me again. You should be careful too."
"Yes." Lu Yuan nodded, also knowing some of the grievances between Master and his disciples.
For example, Master Li had a half-enemy back then, namely the Cyan Sword Zhao Qing of the Western Peak of the Qi Sect. It is said that it was also a conflict brought about by Master's wife back then. It is said that Master's wife was extremely beautiful back then, just like a celestial fairy descending into the world. Many people pursued Master's wife, including Master Li Yuanbai and Zhao Qing, the Cyan Sword of Western Peak.
In the end, Shifu chose Shifu, and married into the Li family, causing Zhao Cang to hate Shifu very much afterwards. He could only be considered a half-enemy because they were still fellow disciples.
——————
Speak of the devil and he appears.
Just after mentioning the Western Peak of the Qi Sect, Zhao Qingyun came to Changchun Residence for a visit. He was a man in his fifties who looked quite old, with an ordinary appearance and no distinctive features. He wore a grey Taoist robe, and as he walked, the aura around him surged, indicating that his magical powers were not ordinary. As the ninth generation of Qi Sect's famous swordsmen, his sword skills might be somewhat inferior, but his magical powers were quite extraordinary.
"Unexpectedly, Li Shixiong's days are numbered, what a pity." After chatting casually for a few sentences, Zhao Cang spoke about his disciple Zhao Nan, according to him, this disciple of his, Zhao Nan, was the third true heir of the Western Peak Qi Sect, with extraordinary martial arts skills.
"I heard that Li Shixiong's disciples are always lazy and sloppy, what a pity. My disciple Zhao Nan is quite good, recently he has even reached the peak of Qi Gong seventh level." The true disciple of the Qi Sect is indeed extraordinary, when the third true disciple of Beifeng, Ling Yuzhu, was only at the initial stage of Qi Gong sixth level, the third true disciple of Xifeng had already reached the peak of Qi Gong seventh level.
"My disciple is truly lazy; otherwise, he could have reached the eighth level of Qi training."
Anyway, the main meaning of this conversation between Xifeng Cangqi Jianxian Zhao Cang is roughly like this: his current strength is quite good, much better than Li Yuanbai who is waiting for death.
His younger brother Zhao Nan's strength is quite good, and he is a rising star in the Western Peak of the Qi Sect, much better than Lu Yuan, who is known for his laziness.
In short, he is now much stronger than Li Yuanba.
Obviously, this Zhao Cang is here to show off.
Actually, now knowing that Lu Yuan's swordsmanship is exceptional are the two peaks of Nan and Bei. Shi Chaoyang, the first true disciple of Dong Feng, also knows, but hasn't gone to say anything. The northern peak naturally wouldn't talk about their own sect's affairs outside, while the southern peak, being the Sword Sect, wouldn't leak information to the western peak, which is the Qi Sect.
So, until now, Zhao Cang still thought that Lu Yuan was just an extremely lazy guy with no real ability.
But in Zhao Cang's heart, he was better than Li Yuanbai. At least he was living well now and had infinite possibilities in the future. Li Yuanbai might have only two or three years of life left, maybe not even that long.
His own disciple Zhao Nan was a genius of Western Peak, having reached the pinnacle of Seventh-Order Cultivation at such a young age, far surpassing Lu Yuan who was notorious for his laziness.
So he came with an air of triumph to show off.
Don't blame Zhao Cang for being shallow, it's just that showing off in front of past love rivals feels too good.
