Snow falls.
Blood also falls.
The snow is cold.
The blood is colder.
A boy stood in the snow.
In his hand, he held a sword.
There was a man upside down in front of him.
But there was no blood on his sword.
Blood is in the sky, in the snow, in the body of his opponent, but not in his sword.
That day, he knew that as long as your sword is fast enough and your sword technique is high enough, the sword will not be covered with blood when killing people.
Seeing the man in front of him slowly stop breathing, the young young sighed lightly.
That year, Lin Yuancheng was fourteen years old.
And the person who fell in front of him was his master.
If there is really a so-called martial arts genius in this world, then Lin Yuancheng... is undoubtedly such a person.
He practiced martial arts at the age of seven, held a sword for the first time at the age of eight, and after he was thirteen, he had no more defeat.
When he was fourteen years old, he defeated and killed his master, because in that year... his teacher, Fan Zhengting, who is quite famous in the world, wanted to harm him because he discovered his talents.
But Fan Zhengting miscalculated one thing, he thought that no matter how talented Lin Yuancheng was, as a swordsman who had been famous in the world for a long time and Lin Yuancheng's master, he would not lose to this child who had only been practicing sword for five or six years.
He was wrong.
A big mistake but a special mistake.
Things that can be measured or calculated by common sense are not considered "talent".
People who can be bound or restricted by common sense are not considered "geniuses".
Lin Yuancheng actually understood the "Seven-Star Sword Technique" that Fan Zhengting relied on to become famous in just one year. In the second year of learning swords, his understanding of this sword technique surpassed his master.
In the following years, Lin Yuancheng actually didn't learn anything from Fan Zhengting. He was just dealing with his master and pretending that he could still learn something to protect his master's self-esteem.
After all, Fan Zhengting picked him up and raised him. Even if he didn't talk about the friendship between master and apprentice, he would still be raising him.
Lin Yuancheng thought so...
But Fan Zhengting is not.
Fan Zhengting has always been a hypocrite. He speaks of benevolence, righteousness and morality on the surface, and stands up for justice everywhere; but he is rewarded by others behind his back, and then pretends to be "justice" and kills people to silence them.
His ability to say one thing and do another is much more skillful than his swordsmanship. He did many things without any leakage and had a clean aftermath, so he gained a false reputation.
Lin Yuancheng is just one of the many orphans adopted by Fan Zhengting.
Fan Zhengting would accept one or two such children almost as soon as he had the chance, and began to teach them kung fu when they were very young; in name, he had a master-apprentice relationship with these children, but in fact... these children were his tools.
Those who are obedient will be trained as subordinates, and those who are disobedient will be dealt with quietly. Anyway, these children are orphans and no one will come to investigate them.
Therefore, when Fan Zhengting realized that one of these children was a martial arts genius, and it was obvious that sooner or later he would surpass him in martial arts, his first reaction was to kill him.
Although Lin Yuancheng had no sign of disobeying him at that time, a villain like Fan Zhengting knew best that a person who was stronger than you would not be your pawn for the rest of his life.
On that snowy night, it was not heavy and the moon could still be seen in the sky.
Fan Zhengting called Lin Yuancheng to an open space in the wild forest and said that he would teach him the essence of swordsmanship.
After the two of them stood still, before Fan Zhengting's sword was unsheathed, Lin Yuancheng knew that the other party was not trying to teach him something, but to kill him.
Lin Yuancheng doesn't understand people, but he knows swords.
People can lie, swords can't.
The murderous sword is already murderous without being unsheathed.
"Does it have to be like this?" Lin Yuancheng asked.
Fan Zhengting smiled, he knew he had been seen through: "What do you think?"
"Not necessarily." Lin Yuancheng said.
"Then do you think there is another way?" Fan Zhengting said.
"I'll leave and never come back." Lin Yuancheng said, "Don't let me meet again, I won't kill you, and I will repay you as I repay you."
When Fan Zhengting heard this, he was furious: "Boy, you look down on your teacher too much, right?"
"Yes." Lin Yuancheng said coldly, "Of course I look down on you... I look down on you as a person, nor your martial arts." He paused, "But I am different from you, I am still a personal person, so I want to give you another chance."
"Your nonsense, let's talk about it when you become a ghost!" Fan Zhengting thought the other party was provoking him, so he shouted angrily and drew his sword.
The Seven-Star Sword Technique is originally a Taoist sword, which emphasizes the use of Qi to the seven acupoints. The Sword Technique can produce seven changes in each move, with a total of seventy-seven forty-nine sword moves. Moreover, this sword Technique itself comes with a set of internal skills, which complements the moves.
Objectively speaking, the Seven-Star Sword Technique should be considered a first-class sword technique, with orthodox mental techniques, both internal and external cultivation, exquisite sword techniques and numerous changes.
Fan Zhengting is also a quasi-first-class expert. Although his qualifications are not very high, there is no reason why he will be weak after practicing first-class swordsmanship for so many years.
His sword energy was calm and powerful, and his sword style was light and sharp.
But all of this, his decades of practice, seemed so clumsy in front of Lin Yuancheng... so sad...
Table Tennis
At that moment, a clanging sound began.
The sword light flashed against the backdrop of snow and moon.
The three colors of black, white and silver bloomed in this cold night, and finally, in a wild scarlet, sublimated into a beautiful painting.
hiss
The sound of blood spurting out of the wound is like the wind blowing wheat ears; when you close your eyes, this sound is like a pair of women's hands gently brushing across your skin.
"You..." Fan Zhengting held a sword in one hand and forced himself to support his body without falling down. The other hand covered the wound on his neck, trying to slow down the blood; he widened his eyes and looked at Lin Yuancheng with an incredible expression, "...Who is your sword technique...with..."
Lin Yuancheng knew what the other party was going to ask, so he interrupted directly: "The Seven-Star Sword Technique does not require forty-nine swords, only seven swords." He paused, "The dozens of additional swords were reserved for those disciples who were not very talented, because most people cannot solve the problem with the first seven swords after all... This is what I realized when I was ten years old."
When he said this, Fan Zhengting had already kneeled on one knee due to excessive blood loss and gradually lost his support.
However, Lin Yuancheng's words are not over yet: "As for what you just got, the 'eighth sword' I realized based on the real 'Seven-Star Sword'. As long as you reverse the Kaiyang Sword Style, you will have such power... Isn't it very interesting?"
It might be interesting to him.
For Fan Zhengting, these words only made him feel desperate and regretful.
Soon, Fan Zhengting fell down.
Lin Yuancheng also sighed lightly, put away his sword and left.
In fact, when he killed Fan Zhengting that night, he didn't use his strongest sword technique; but he felt that using the Seven-Star Sword Technique to kill the other party seemed to have a sense of ritual, so he chose this way.
The sword technique that Lin Yuancheng is really good at is a set of sword techniques he created from the age of ten to thirteen. He named this sword technique "Linglu Tan".
This whining-free name also reflects the young man's mentality of being lonely because of his invincibility...
…………
After that night, Lin Yuancheng left a foreign land.
Fan Zhengting is a very cunning person. In order to facilitate the disciples he trained to help him do disgraceful things in the dark and to silence him, he has always contacted his disciples in one line, which has also caused all his disciples to become kites with broken strings after his death.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Lin Yuancheng. He just needs to make sure that no one in the world knows his background.
A few months later, Lin Yuancheng came to Xingyi Gate in Cangzhou and became a disciple and seeking skills.
He said that he had been an orphan since he was a child, and later he studied martial arts with an unknown old Taoist for several years. Now the old Taoist is dead, so he wants to come to join the Xingyi Sect... After hearing this, the people from Xingyi Sect thought it was reasonable.
In this universe, in the martial arts world, it is quite common for young people who have practiced martial arts for a few years and have some internal strength. Besides, people from Xingyi Sect can also see that Lin Yuancheng's internal strength is indeed Taoist orthodox internal strength, so they believed him and accepted him.
But people like Lin Yuancheng cannot be low-key anywhere.
More than two years have passed, and he has learned the martial arts in Xingyi Sect... Of course, this is one of the reasons why he joined Xingyi Sect at the beginning: everyone in the world knows that Cangzhou is the hometown of martial arts, and Cangzhou Xingyi Sect has always been famous for its many martial arts secrets (just many, but not necessarily many excellent ones).
Later, Lin Yuancheng felt that staying with his fellow disciples would not improve any more, so he began to walk around the world and tried to improve through actual combat. Soon after, he became known as the "Cangzhou Little Hero".
Previously, the "Kang Haijiao" group that Sun Yixie and Huang Donglai met in the Dragon King Cave were once dealt with by Lin Yuancheng. However, Lin Xiaoxia felt that this group of people was too low. As the first group of people he had officially walked in the world, he was a little unqualified, so he gave them a chance.
To this day, Lin Yuancheng's name has been praised in the world.
He is also the "number one seed" in this Young Hero Club. At least in the eyes of most of the heads in charge, Lin Yuancheng's strength is not at the same level as other peers.
For example, in the second game of the first eight to four, Lin Yuancheng went up and gave Di Gui, the leader of the Cao Gang, a move, and gave him a second. This scene made Feng Shunfeng and Feng Shunshui look pale in the audience... Not only did they feel sorry for their elder brother's nephew, but they also vaguely felt that they might be missed if they went up.
To sum up, Lin Xiaoxia's strength is quite amazing.
Chunkong faced him, to be honest... there was no chance of winning; if it was replaced by Lei Buji and Lin Yuancheng would not use a sword to change his empty hand, he would probably be able to score 55 and present a very exciting competition.
But assumptions are just as assumptions after all.
Therefore, there was no earth-shaking battle in the first game of the semi-finals.
Under the premise that there was a certain gap in strength, Chunkong faced Lin Yuancheng, who was holding the sword with his bare hands, and quickly defeated him with five moves, and the sword was placed on Chunkong's neck.
Chunkong naturally surrendered to "Amitabha" very simply, and Lin Yuancheng also bowed politely to Chunkong and immediately stepped down.
Because they fought too quickly, Sun Yixie didn't rest much, so he cursed his mother and returned to the ring.
