When the light had completely subsided, it was already half an hour later. Su Qinian felt a burst of clarity in front of his eyes, his eyes penetrated, and his mental power gathered. He could even easily penetrate the dilapidated walls and see various scenes outside Qingyang Hall.

At this point, his mental strength has nearly tripled, and he can see everything in a radius of more than thirty feet, and nothing can escape his eyes.

Standing up, Su Qinian thought, and densely packed long knives appeared on the ground in front of him. The long knives were like a forest, and they actually exuded a faint edge.

The soul-destroying technique has reached this stage, and in Su Qinian's view, it is not far from turning from virtual reality to interfering with the real world.

Su Qinian estimated that perhaps when his "Ecstasy Technique" reaches a higher level, he will be able to initially demonstrate the true majesty of this spiritual martial art.

After a stick of incense, outside the Qingyang Hall.

Buzz!

There was a faint sound of knives coming from the hall. In front of the bonfire, Qingyu and the other three were stagnant. Then, Jinggu and Qingyu discovered that the knives and swords behind them were trembling at the same time.

The three of them stood up and looked at each other, feeling shocked.

……

Laba Festival has passed, and the first lunar month is not far away. Ordinary people start to be busy in the new year, such as dusting, settling rent, marinating various meats, and asking scholars in villages and towns who are well-read in poetry and books to write a few auspicious spring couplets.

, after a year of panic, this twelfth lunar month is the most stable and peaceful.

This generation of emperors of the Han Dynasty still attaches great importance to people's livelihood. At the end of the twelfth lunar month, the number of troops stationed in various prefectures, counties and towns has doubled. In the past, monsters that may have penetrated into the crowd are almost impossible to escape in this twelfth lunar month.

.

As a major leader of the country, Wudang’s annual festival is also quite grand every year. There is a ceremony to commemorate Tianzhenwu. Each peak and each branch has its own arrangement. There are many newly purchased clothes, quilts, sesame oil, snacks and candies, and there is an endless supply of them.

The ground was transported up the mountain.

Standing at the top of Qingyang Peak, Su Qinian looked at the people in Wudang Mountain as if they were tiny ants. After Laba Festival, the flavor of the New Year became a bit stronger.

The most important thing is that after Laba, one day later, it’s the New Year Festival Competition.

The three-year competition was last year, so this year is just a small competition in the outer courtyard. The next round of the three-year competition will have to wait two years.

On the day after Laba, Su Qinian and the other three did not practice kungfu, but relaxed and soothed their minds. The fat man took Jinggu to dig out his private collection of wine, while Qingyu liked to play the erhu. He came from a commoner family and his ancestors had

He is the main erhu player in the troupe, and his erhu skills have been passed down to his generation. Although he has not inherited his old profession, he has not lost his skills.

Qingyu's erhu sound was a little desolate, with a strong market flavor, and maybe not too elegant in sound, but he never tired of it.

Su Qinian walked in Qingyang Peak. He looked at and touched every stone, every spring, every clear stream, and every ancient tree. Some were still evergreen in the cold winter, while others had withered branches and leaves.

But what remains the same is the simple and vicissitudes of time.

Observing the growth of all things and the withering of grass and trees, Su Qinian seems to have realized something. It is said in the Tao Te Ching: "Man follows the earth, the earth follows the sky, the sky follows the Tao, and the Tao follows nature."

……

That night, the winter moon on Qingyang Peak was particularly bright. On the top of the mountain, Su Qinian looked at the bright moon like a disk. On a tall rock, he used a knife as a pen, and with his energy and blood flowing through the edge, he carved a sentence.

People have joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes.

Bathed in the moonlight, he lay on the top of the mountain and fell asleep unconsciously.

At Chenshi, the sun rises one minute earlier than usual.

The orange-red sunlight climbed onto his face. Su Qinian opened his eyes, stood up, took a deep breath, and yawned. It had been nearly two months since he had fallen asleep like this. Even though his sleep was still uneasy, it still made his whole body feel numb.

It seems a bit lighter.

The next moment, his eyes were fixed, all laziness was expelled, his breath was restrained, and he became calm.

……

Wudang Outer Courtyard has six branches in total, located at Huangya Peak, Leishi Peak, Baiyun Peak, Tianzhu Peak, Huixian Peak, and Qianzhang Peak. The annual annual festival of the Outer Courtyard is held in the Tianzhu Peak Outer Courtyard.

, the outer courtyard of Tianzhu Peak is also the largest among the six branches.

As the morning sun rose, many outer courtyard disciples opened their eyes and walked out of their respective branches. They caught the solemn smell in the air. Although it was just a annual festival competition in the mountains, for many outer courtyard disciples, it was no less than

An experience, fighting against many young and strong men of the same generation, measuring oneself, checking for mistakes and filling in the gaps. Every year, many disciples from the outer academy understand the principles of boxing in the competition, break through the realm, and reach a higher level in the attack.

Floor.

"It is rumored that Senior Brother Gu Yuehe from Huangya Peak has been accepted by Jinguang Zhenren from Jinsuo Peak. During this trip to the Moyun Mountains, he received the Three-Point Dragon-Subduing Palm."

"I heard that a few days ago, Jinguang Zhenren ordered him to enter the peak, personally healed his injuries, and gave him guidance to help him improve his Taoism. He only waited for the competition in the outer courtyard before he formally saluted and joined the Jinsuo Peak lineage."

"If you can understand the Three-Point Dragon Subduing Palm, I heard the deacon say that maybe you can use it to create a first-class palm technique in the future."

Some familiar disciples from the outer courtyard walked together on the mountain road, talking to each other in low voices. There are more than a thousand disciples in the six branches. It is difficult to tell how many masters are hidden among them. Not to mention that they have not fought for a year. It is possible that no one among them will have an adventure, or that

Once I had an epiphany, my foundation-building skills improved by leaps and bounds.

However, in comparison, it is still inseparable from a small group of people with outstanding skills that can be talked about by many outer courtyard disciples.

"Senior Brother Lingqingyang from Leishi Peak, Senior Brother Qinglu from Baiyun Peak, Senior Sister Yue Qingyun from Huixian Peak, Senior Brother Ling Qingping from Qianzhang Peak, and Senior Brother Tu Qingfeng from Tianzhu Peak. I heard that they participated in the competition two months ago.

Enlightenment has reached the ninth level of the "Turtle and Snake Technique", but it is just because it is undecided as to which peak and which branch to worship, so it has not yet left the outer courtyard."

When talking about these top figures in the outer court, many disciples have all kinds of envy and admiration in their eyes. For ordinary outer court disciples like them, the skills above the seventh, eighth and ninth levels of "Turtle and Snake Kung Fu" are really unimaginable.

The power of a bloody horse is enough for them to look down on more than 90% of the martial arts practitioners in the martial arts world who have not yet established a foundation. However, how powerful a Pegasus horse is, some outer courtyard disciples who have experienced it for several years can only sigh in their hearts.<

/p>

For them, when the seventh level of "Turtle and Snake Technique" is completed, it is time to build the foundation. But for a small group of people in the outer courtyard, the seventh level of "Turtle and Snake Technique" will never be satisfied. They want to rush to reach it.

At a higher level, with eight or even nine levels of "Turtle and Snake Technique" as the foundation, as soon as the world was created, he was no longer an ordinary third-rate person. Even if he only penetrated one of the Twelve Meridians, he was enough to defeat ordinary people who had penetrated three or four of the Twelve Meridians.

A third-rate master.

Such a profound foundation will allow them to go further on the road to martial arts in the future, and will have a greater chance of reaching the second-rate, first-rate, and even the realm of the Supreme Soul, which is the pinnacle of enlightenment.

Tianzhu Peak, also known as Shenling Peak, is the first of the seventy-two peaks. It should be three days high, followed by Yi Zhen. In the morning and evening, you can see the rise and fall of the sun and the moon, and watch the colorful clouds cover the mountain. The golden top is seventy feet long from east to west and wide from north to south.

Nineteen feet long, the four dimensions are all stone, and the spine is like a basalt backbone.

Tianzhu Peak Outer Courtyard.

It is not so much one of the six branches of the outer courtyard, but rather a magnificent ancient Taoist palace, covering an area of ​​about forty acres. The black and yellow palace walls outside the palace are shaped like eight trigrams, with eight side entrances for the disciples of the Wufeng Branch in all directions.

Once inside, there will be no congestion or disputes.

The annual ceremony lasted for three full days. On the morning of the first day, disciples, deacons from all branches, as well as possible protectors, elders and other senior experts from various branches gathered together.

This morning was also the busiest time in the service room. Various reception arrangements, as well as the preparation of many utensils, tea, food, and even the preparation of some healing herbs and bandages, were an extremely complicated task.

.

Nearly two thousand people entered the palace, and the martial arts arena, which was originally quite spacious in the eyes of many Tianzhu Peak outer courtyard disciples, seemed a bit cramped.

The martial arts arena is divided into seven blocks, six of which belong to the Six Branches, with simple furnishings and supplies. The seventh block is where the stationed deacons and masters of the Six Branches, as well as people from all peaks and clans, and various incense are located.

The tea, melons and fruits have all been placed early, and there are also handymen and Taoists accompanying them to serve them at any time.

Although there are huge differences, no one from the outer courtyard disciples said anything. This is the difference in force and status.

In addition, there are also divisions in the martial arts arena. Black stone platforms mixed with molten iron have been erected. More than a thousand disciples from the outer courtyard compete in martial arts. If they are held one by one, they may not be able to compete even in a month or two.

After finishing, it’s different now. There are a total of thirty-six black iron stone platforms, and thirty-six competitions are held at the same time, so that the competition can be concluded within three days.

The annual festival ceremony officially begins, after lunch, in another half an hour.

It was approaching noon, and nearly 90% of the disciples from the Six Branches had entered the palace in twos and threes. At the Zhenlei Gate, one of the eight gates, two Taoist priests stationed at the door beat their shoulders. They had already ushered in nearly 300 people.

, the road we walked back and forth would probably be dozens of miles long.

"Another fight between dragons and tigers."

The two then looked at each other, sighing in their hearts, but more than anything, they were regretful. They were already thirty years old, but they had not been able to build the foundation. They could only leave the outer courtyard and work as a handyman with complicated affairs and the lowest status in the mountain.

room.

"You two, please lead the way."

Just when the two of them were distracted and reminiscing, a calm voice sounded in their ears.

After coming back to their senses, the two Taoist priests saw four figures in front of them. Except for the two who were wearing gray Taoist robes from the outer courtyard, a boy of fifteen or sixteen years old was wearing a dark green robe. As for the other, smaller one,

It is actually a blue silk Taoist robe, customized by Wudang. Only people of Jing generation can wear it. Otherwise, if you exceed the customization, you will be held accountable by the Zhenwu Hall.
