Li Muchan returned to Gu Hengdi's small courtyard. Gu Hengdi was sitting on a low couch in the hall. Her graceful body was spread out, leaning on the couch reading a book. She was dressed in white, her body was spotless, her expression was lazy and peaceful, the air in the hall was...
Everything seems peaceful.
"Master." Li Muchan stepped forward.
Gu Hengdi lazily put down his book: "Well, have you set up the formation?"
Li Muchan nodded, took out a jade talisman from his arms and handed it over: "It's already set up." Gu Hengdi smiled: "I heard that it takes a long time to set up a formation, but I didn't expect you to be so fast."
Li Muchan scratched his head and said sheepishly: "Master, I just learned a little bit, it's nothing." Gu Hengdi said: "If you want to learn the formation, you can go to the mountain, there are several formation masters there.
"On the mountain?" Li Muchan asked, didn't Gu Cheng and the others say that there are no formation practitioners in the Yunxiao Sect? Why did the formation master come again?
And he remembered that the floating mountain gate of Yunxiao Sect was driven by exquisite formations. How could it not be presided over by a formation master?
It seemed that Gu Cheng and the others didn't know, or had some hidden agenda.
Gu Hengdi said: "The cultivation of formations is a separate system in our Yunxiao Sect. It has nothing to do with the practice of swordsmanship and is not in the Eighteen Islands." Li Muchan said: "Listen to Gu Shifu, Xiaoyao Island has been provoking troubles, why don't you invite us?
Did they arrange the formation?" "The Eighteen Islands are not very good at dealing with them." Gu Hengdi shook his head and sighed: "There are some grievances in this, which I can't explain for the moment." Li Muchan frowned and said, "No matter how much grievances there are, they won't be able to deal with them."
Is that so?" If the formation is blessed, how can Xiaoyao Island be so arrogant anymore? Even if there are grievances, they should be consistent in dealing with the outside world. How can they stand idly by?
Gu Hengdi sighed: "Don't get involved, the water in this is very deep."
Li Muchan said: "Then I can learn the formation?" "There are very few people in the world who can practice the formation. It takes a lot of luck to meet one. If you want to learn, they are eager to learn it." Gu Hengdi said.
Li Muchan said: "But the grudges in this...?" "In the face of inheritance, grudges can be put aside." Gu Hengdi said.
Li Muchan shook his head and sighed: "Forget it, I'll finish practicing the Sword Control Technique first." "This is quite serious.
Gu Hengdi nodded in agreement: "You are sober and very well. The top priority now is to get the Sword Scripture. Once you have mastered this, you will be able to do it all over the world. It will not be too late to practice the formation again."
Li Muchan said: "Master, have you ever heard of the Book of Star Retrieval?"
"The Scripture of Controlling the Stars" Gu Hengdi pondered for a moment and said, "It's the secret method of a small aristocratic family, right?" Li Muchan nodded: "It's the method of the Fang family, it's superb."
Gu Hengdi said: "I think I've heard of it, but compared to getting the Sword Sutra, the way to control the Star Sutra is completely different. It's just that the names are similar."
Li Muchan said: "Master, if Xiaoyao Island provokes them again, can't you give them a head-on blow?" "Xiaoyao Island?" Gu Hengdi frowned his slender eyebrows and shook his head: "This is indeed a trouble, and it is not appropriate to go to war."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows and wanted to say something. Gu Hengdi waved his jade hand and said, "Cheng'er told me about your stay in the Gale Gorge. It's very murderous."
Li Muchan said: "Isn't Xiaoyao Island too much?,...
"It was just a robbery to save our face, but no killing was done. Both sides were restrained," Gu Hengdi said.
Li Muchan smiled: "Because we both have great masters, right?"
"Not bad!" Gu Hengdi nodded and said calmly: "So you have to work hard to practice and strive to enter the realm of the Grand Master as soon as possible." Li Muchan smiled bitterly and said: "The Grand Master? It's just out of reach!"
"Who said it's out of reach?" Gu Hengdi shook his head and sighed: "You have practiced to return jade.
Sutra, one foot has stepped into the realm of the great master."
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows and his eyes lit up.
His temperament is completely different now. He is more serious and serious. Every time he frowns or raises his eyes, he has an imposing manner. Although it is just a small movement of his eyebrows, Gu Hengdi can clearly feel it. He smiled and said: "You don't know, in fact, it's still a jade scripture."
The most amazing thing is to have a relationship with the great master."
Li Muchan pondered deeply, recalling the situation when he practiced the Jade Sutra. His spirit was transformed into spiritual consciousness, he had a deeper understanding of heaven and earth, and he truly became one with heaven and earth. This was a qualitative change.
Li Muchan pondered: "Could this be my true nature?" He had talked about the Grand Master with his master Luo Heng. Master Luo Heng once talked about the fundamental change of the Grand Master, which was to break the ego and recognize the big self. He thought
It is the Buddhist concept of clear mind seeing, but it was denied by the master. Now that I think about it, it may be this divine consciousness.
Gu Hengdi said: "The ninth generation disciples in the sect may not know it, but the eighth generation and above disciples all know that as long as they practice the Jade Return Sutra, they will become a great master sooner or later."
Li Muchan knew that his guess was correct and smiled. He could become a great master, and he could come and go freely in the world, move freely, and be able to return to his original world and reunite with his parents and girlfriends.
I couldn't help but feel happy when I thought of this, and said with a smile: "That's it!"
Gu Hengdi said: "Transforming the mind into consciousness is the last move of the Jade Sutra. Have you mastered it?" Li Muchan nodded: "Yes." "That's quick. This is the most important step to become a great master.
, In the future, as long as you practice step by step, when the time comes, you will naturally become a great master. , , Gu Hengdi pursed his lips and smiled.
Seeing Li Muchan's joy, she was also infected.
"Thank you, Master!" Li Muchan bowed deeply.
Gu Hengdi waved his hand: "It doesn't have to be like this, this is your destiny."
Li Muchan shook his head and said no more. Without her teaching, support, and patient guidance, he thought it would take longer to reach this point.
As time goes by, he misses his girls even more. Time is like a soft knife, cutting his heart with knife after knife. The Heart Sutra of Infinite Light not only fails to relieve his lovesickness, but actually makes him miss her.
Li Muchan said: "Master, can Senior Sister Feng enter the Grand Master?"
"Not yet." Gu Hengdi shook his head and muttered: "Mingxue is a very talented person, rare in the world. She started training at the age of eighteen. She was originally a weak and slender ordinary woman. She had never practiced martial arts. It took her three years to do it.
She is the fastest in the history of the Yunxiao Sect to master the Return of the Jade Sutra. She has been practicing the Sword Sutra for two years. Your swordsmanship is not bad. Although you have not mastered the Sword Sutra, you can still fight with Mingxue."
Li Muchan has a solid foundation in swordsmanship and has practiced sword moves to the extreme. He has combined the essence of hundreds of schools of thought, and with the core of his strong spirit and memory, he has mastered almost all sword moves in the world, turning all the sword moves into non-sword moves.
Although the Sword-Taking Sutra is wonderful, it talks about the harmony between the sword and the person. The sword is imbued with spirit to achieve the union between the sword and the mind. When the mind reaches the place where the sword reaches, it is still the person wielding the sword.
If the wielder of the sword cannot see through the opponent's moves, the sword will be useless no matter how handy it is.
However, there are a few moves in the Professional Swordsmanship that are extremely powerful, but they are real sword-control skills. After mastering them, you can kill people with flying swords, which is shocking to the world.
Li Muchan smiled and said, "I don't dare to fight against Senior Sister Feng."
"You two will have to fight sooner or later." Gu Hengdi said with a smile: "You are equally talented. Yunxiao Sect will belong to you two in the future, how can you not fight?" Li Muchan said: "I am not as good as Senior Sister Feng."
He has self-awareness and was able to successfully practice the Huanyu Sutra. It was due to various opportunities and not his own genius. If he had not practiced meditation since childhood, he had not seen through the mysteries of life and death, he had not practiced the Observation of Heaven, Humans and Gods, and he had not practiced Vajra later on.
The magical power is not bad, and without the Infinite Light Sutra, he will never be able to practice the Jade Sutra.
Feng Mingxue had never practiced martial arts and was weak and delicate, but he was able to practice the Jade Scripture in one breath. He was ashamed of his talent.
"A manly man, are you timid before you fight?" Gu Hengdi smiled and shook his head.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "But, although I am not as talented as Sister Feng Hua, my diligence can make up for my shortcomings, and I will never give up!"
"That's right!" Gu Hengdi nodded with a smile and said: "The disciples of Yunxiao Sect don't have any conflicts of interest, so everyone is in harmony, but it's not that there are no disputes. In the annual competition, everyone fights desperately to get ahead.
.”
"Why is this?" Li Muchan asked.
Gu Hengdi said: "There is a Spring Returning Pill among the top ten...
"Returning Spring Pill?" Li Muchan raised his eyebrows. This was the first time he heard it. He originally thought that the ranking was just a ranking, but he did not expect that there would be a conflict of interests.
Gu Hengdi said: "The Spring Returning Pill is a magical elixir that maintains appearance. It is a unique elixir of our Yunxiao Sect." Li Muchan smiled and said: "Can you stay young forever?"
Hengdi nodded softly: "Take a pill of rejuvenation, and you can maintain your appearance for a hundred years." Li Muchan's eyes suddenly lit up. This is a big killer, especially for women. No woman doesn't want to stay young forever, even men.
Gu Hengdi looked at his appearance and smiled slightly: "Wuji, do you have a sweetheart?" Li Muchan scratched his head and smiled sheepishly: "Master, have you taken the Spring Return Pill?"
"Um.
Gu Hengdi nodded softly: "The Spring Returning Pill not only maintains the appearance of youth, but also increases internal strength and longevity, which is infinitely wonderful." Li Muchan chuckled and said, "Master won it by himself?" Gu Hengdi rolled his eyes at him and said angrily.
Said: "You brat, where did you think you were going? Of course I won by myself. No man can be trusted!", Li Muchan rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly.
Gu Hengdi said: "Who is your sweetheart? Gu Caiying from Kuangfeng Gorge, He Lizhu, which one do you like?" Li Muchan shook his head: "Master made a mistake."
"Well, it's not them, is it the young lady from the Song family?" Gu Hengdi pursed his lips and smiled.
Li Muchan admitted generously, and Gu Hengdi smiled and said: "Okay, then this competition is an opportunity. The sooner you take it, the better. The competition will be in nine months. You have to practice hard." Mu Chan nodded.
Gu Hengdi smiled and said: "You have a very good foundation in swordsmanship. As long as you master the Sword Drawing Manual, you can almost get the Spring Returning Pill."
Li Muchan nodded: while the two disciples were talking, Yang Biluo came over in a hurry, with an angry look on her face: "Master!" Her little face was red, with a hint of anger and anger, and she was very charming and charming.
"What's wrong, little Biluo?" Gu Hengdi asked warmly.
Yang Biluo said bitterly: "Senior Brother Sha from Bailing Island is here to challenge Junior Brother Li!"
"So fast?" Gu Hengdi raised his eyebrows and looked at Li Muchan: "It seems that Wuji's reputation spread quickly."
"Bailing Island is so shameless!" Yang Biluo said angrily: "Junior Brother Li has only been here for a long time, and they can't wait to challenge him!"
"Isn't it you?" Gu Hengdi shook his head: "I will brag when I get the chance!" "Don't blame me!" Yang Biluo said hurriedly: "It's Junior Brother Hu!"
"Well, since it's a challenge, we can't avoid it." Gu Hengdi said: "Wuji, go ahead and fight. Remember, don't make a deadly move. We will only compete with each other until we reach the point."
Li Muchan nodded. He was also a little excited. He wanted to see the strength of the other disciples of the Yunxiao Sect and see what level he was at.
Gu Hengdi said: "Let them go to the martial arts training ground in front." "Okay!" Yang Biluo agreed three times, turned around and left.
There were more than thirty people in the martial arts training ground in front of the hall. Li Muchan saw about a dozen unfamiliar faces, who must be disciples from Bai Ling Island.
Li Muchan followed Gu Hengdi as he walked slowly this way. Listening to Gu Hengdi's explanation along the way, he knew that Bailing Island was opposite Hengbo Island, and it only took half a day to sail a water boat.
The disciples on Bailing Island and the disciples on Hengbo Island are always somewhat hostile because the two people on the island, Gu Hengdi and Xu Hua from Bailing Island, have a wonderful relationship.
It is said that when Xu Hua pursued Gu Hengdi, Gu Hengdi ignored him and fell in love with another person. Unfortunately, that person died young and became possessed.
Xu Hua both loved and hated Gu Hengdi, and always targeted him. His disciples also regarded their master as a follower, so naturally they would not be too harmonious.
The disciples of Yunxiao Sect rotate once a year. Gu Cheng and Yang Biluo will be disciples of Hengbo Island this year and Bailing Island next year.
But whichever island you go to, you must safeguard the interests of the island. This is an invisible rule. Even though Gu Cheng is Gu Hengdi's nephew, he will still go against Hengbo Island, and Gu Hengdi can't blame him.
After eighteen years of rotation, the disciples decide where to stay and where to stay. Most of them will return to the first island and return to their mentor Qi Meng.
Some disciples also choose other islands because the master on this island is particularly good to them or is particularly likable, and they need to fight for it with their respective masters.
Therefore, when the masters on each island teach apprentices, not only will they not hide their secrets, but they will give guidance as much as possible. Otherwise, it would be shameless to be compared to other islands.
Seeing Li Muchan and Gu Hengdi approaching, everyone made way for them. When they entered, they saw a handsome young man standing proudly with a sword in his hand, his eyes shining like cold stars. It was obvious that he had entered the palace through cultivation.
Behind him were four young men, three men and one woman, all with solemn expressions, all with good looks and extraordinary temperament.
Seeing Gu Hengdi, they all saluted: "I've met Master Gu."
Gu Hengdi waved his hand: "No need, I'll be the arbiter, let's compete. Yunsheng, are you the one who wants to challenge Wuji?"
"Yes, Master Gu." The handsome young man in charge said politely.
"Well, then it depends on your abilities." Gu Hengdi nodded, turned around and said, "Wuji, this is Sha Yunsheng."
"I've met Senior Brother Sha." Li Muchan clasped his fists.
Sha Yunsheng clasped his fists in return and said in a deep voice: "Junior Brother Li is a famous name, so you don't have to be polite." Li Muchan smiled and said, "Senior Brother Sha wants to teach me swordsmanship, right?"
"That's right." Sha Yunsheng nodded solemnly and hummed: "I heard that Junior Brother Li has mastered the art of returning jade.
"It's really gratifying, I'm here to see it." "Brother Sha, please give me some advice!" Li Muchan slowly pulled out the sword from its sheath. There was nothing unusual about the blood-drinking sword. It was pure and bright, no different from ordinary swords.
It's easy to be ignored.
Sha Yunsheng said in a deep voice: "Please!" There was a flash of sword light at his waist, and the tip of the sword was already in front of Li Muchan's chest. Li Muchan remained motionless, and the sword light flashed. There was a crisp "ding" sound, and the sword tips of the two people met.
A cold star splashed out.
"Huh?" Everyone was surprised and looked at each other.
The tip of Li Muchan's sword had already been placed on Sha Yunsheng's throat. They did not see clearly how Li Muchan did it. It seemed that with just one stretch of his hand, the sword was already placed on Sha Yunsheng's throat.
Sha Yunsheng's movements suddenly stopped, and he was frozen in place, unable to move, with a cold feeling coming from his throat.
Li Muchan smiled and sheathed his sword: "Senior Brother Sha, I accept the concession." "You?" Sha Yun felt a sigh in his throat. He looked at Li Muchan again and felt that he was unwilling to accept it. He had lost so inexplicably.
Li Muchan saw what he was thinking and said with a smile: "Senior brother Sha, you can do it again." Sha Yunsheng turned to look at Gu Hengdi, who smiled and said: "What you did just now doesn't count, so let's do it again."
Sha Yunsheng's face felt hot and must have turned red, but he was really unwilling to accept it. He couldn't see clearly how he was defeated. It was a bit inexplicable. He couldn't sleep well until he figured it out. Besides, he hadn't exerted his full strength.
Woolen cloth.
"Okay, I'll be shameless for once and watch the sword!" As soon as he finished speaking, the sword had already been thrust out, as fast as lightning, and the whole body's cultivation was concentrated on the sword.
"Huh?" Everyone exclaimed again.
The tip of Li Muchan's sword came first and reached Sha Yunsheng's throat. Sha Yunsheng's sword also reached Li Muchan's chest, but missed by half a foot.
But in the eyes of outsiders, Li Muchan's sword was slow and extremely relaxed, while Sha Yunsheng's sword was as fast as lightning. It was really baffling that he lost to Li Muchan.
"Senior Brother Sha, I accept the offer." Li Bichan smiled and sheathed his sword.
Sha Yunsheng stood stunned for a long time, savoring the feeling at that moment and wanting to find the secret of Li Muchan's swordsmanship.
Li Muchan sheathed his sword, took two steps back, and turned to Gu Hengdi.
Gu Hengdi shook his head: "Is there still a challenge?...
"I'll come!" A young man behind Sha Yunsheng stepped out and said in a deep voice: "Junior brother Li is good at swordsmanship. I'll teach you Yang Qingyuan!" Li Muchan clasped his fists: "I've seen senior brother Yang, please~!" Yang Qingyuan nodded and drew his sword.
The man was two feet away, so he unsheathed his sword and merged his sword into one, turning into a stream of light and shooting towards Li Muchan.
This sword is full of energy and vitality, and it is obviously very powerful as it uses a unique technique extracted from the sword scripture.
Li Muchan gently drew his sword and thrust forward. The light suddenly stopped, revealing Yang Qingyuan's stiff and stunned figure, with the tip of the sword pressed against his throat.
Li Muchan slowly sheathed his sword and stepped back with a smile: "Senior Brother Yang, I give in." "Good swordsmanship!" Yang Qingyuan clasped his fists, sheathed the sword and returned behind Sha Yunsheng, still immersed in the sword strike just now.
Li Muchan turned around to look at the others, and another person stood out, but she was the only girl. She had a beautiful appearance. Although she was not an extremely beautiful woman, her temperament was fresh and pleasing to the eye.
