() "The competition is over. In this three-year martial arts competition, the two candidates who have the opportunity to enter the Sutra Pavilion to read the Sword Code are Tianxian from the Tianzi generation and Li Ling from the Taoist generation."
Immediately the audience cheered.
After Li Ling and Tianxian came on stage to thank the other audience, they were led by a cold old Taoist towards a mysterious back mountain that they had never been to before.
Along the way, the mountain road is rugged and there is a lot of fog, so you will lose your way if you are not careful.
"Senior, do you want to take us to see the sword canon?" Li Ling asked.
"Yes. In the triennial martial arts competition, the winners can go to the Sutra Pavilion in the back mountain to read the self-created sword moves left by the ancestors of the past generations." The old Taoist said.
"Uncle Li Ling, that sword of yours is really powerful. What kind of sword is it?" Tianxian asked curiously as he walked.
Even the cold-blooded old man showed a hint of interest.
"This sword is called Long Yuan. It is a famous sword in history." Li Ling had a good influence on Tianxian, so he did not hide it from him. The old Taoist was even more cold-hearted. He was the guardian of the Sutra Pavilion, and even
There's no need to hide it.
"Long Yuan, Long Yuan really exists?" Tianxian didn't believe it.
The old Taoist was also shocked.
"There's nothing you can do if you don't believe it, because Long Yuan is really in my hands." Li Ling said with a smile.
"Long Yuan." The old Taoist narrowed his eyes, thinking thoughtfully.
"Old senior, do you know the origin of this Long Yuan?" Li Ling looked at the trace of intrigue on the old Taoist's face and asked.
The old Taoist shook his head and said: "I'm not sure, but I once remembered that there was a book about history in the Sutra Pavilion. During the Warring States Period, our Taixu Temple produced a peerless master who once used Long Yuan.
, However, because this peerless master later entered the devil's path, he was expelled from the master's school and his whereabouts are still unknown."
Li Ling nodded slowly, but in his mind he thought of the Sword Demon True Master in the coffin. He couldn't be the senior Sword Demon abandoned by Taixu Temple back then.
"Our Taixu Guan has such a long history." Li Ling exclaimed in surprise.
"The history of our Taixu Temple can be traced back to a thousand years before the Yan and Huang emperors." The old Taoist said.
"You're kidding." Li Ling said in surprise.
"It's up to you whether you believe it or not," the old Taoist said angrily.
Li Ling smiled awkwardly and followed the old Tao without saying anything. Soon, he arrived at a secluded place, halfway up a mountain. He built an attic with three floors in total. After entering the yard, Li Ling was
Bewitched by the fragrance of flowers in the attic.
In winter, there were actually flowers blooming. Li Ling looked at the flower curiously and found that it was a plum blossom.
In the courtyard, there was a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old, wearing gauze clothes worn by ancient people, and she was actually cleaning the courtyard.
Li Ling couldn't help but marvel, this is the 21st century, why are there still people wearing such clothes? Is this really a paradise?
"Grandpa Lu, please come back and find out who will be the candidates for this year's martial arts competition?" The girl's voice was crisp and sweet, just like an oriole's.
Tianxian was stunned anyway, thinking that the girl was very delicate and beautiful, and her three souls were lost.
Li Ling thought it was nothing. After all, when they were in Yanjing, the two eldest ladies of the Xiao family were no worse in appearance than the girl in front of him. However, the only thing that amazed Li Ling was the saint Qingyi.
"Grandpa, are they the winners of this year's martial arts competition?" the girl loved to laugh.
"Yes, Xiaoqin." The old Taoist couldn't help but smile when he saw this girl.
"Hello, my name is Xie Qin, you can just call me Xiaoqin." Xie Qin said with a bright smile.
Tianxian blushed and said sheepishly: "Hello, Miss Xiaoqin. My name is Tianxian."
"Hello, Xiaoqin. My name is Li Ling."
Then, Li Ling turned around to observe the Scripture-Depository Pavilion.
"Li Ling, why isn't the name based on the Taoist heaven and Taoist hierarchy?"
"Oh, I am a lay disciple." How did Li Ling know why his master didn't give him a Taoist title?
"A lay disciple?" Xie Qin felt funny, but out of politeness, she still didn't laugh.
"This is the Sutra Pavilion. You have seven days to read the Sword Code here. After seven days, you must leave here. Do you understand?" The old Taoist said with a serious face again.
"OK."
"no problem."
The two of them entered the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion under the leadership of Xie Qin.
As soon as she entered the Sutra Pavilion, Xie Qin couldn't stop talking, as if no one had chatted with her for a long time.
"This is the first floor. There are a total of 1,500 books on the first floor. Each book records the chronicles of characters and the history of Taoism. It is considered a database. So, on the first floor, you are interested in learning about the history and characters of our Taixu Temple.
If so, you can read it and take a look." Xie Qin introduced cheerfully.
"Miss Xiaoqin, who wrote the biographies here?" Tianxian seemed to have a special liking for Xie Qin and always liked to ask questions and talk to her.
"Usually it's written by people from the Sutra Pavilion." Xie Qin smiled slightly.
"Are all the people in the Sutra Pavilion descended from the same lineage?"
"Yes, our Xie family has always guarded the Scripture Pavilion. Grandpa is the guardian of the Scripture Pavilion. If the next generation comes, that will be me."
"That's weird, why isn't he your father?"
"My father ran away from home when I was very young and never came back." Xie Qin was originally cheerful, but at this moment, she became a little sad.
"I'm sorry for reminding you of sad things." Tianxian apologized hurriedly.
"It's okay, it's all old things." Xie Qin quickly recovered her smile.
"Go up this staircase to the second floor." Xie Qin led Li Ling and Tianxian to continue walking upward.
The staircase is a wooden ladder, and the wooden ladder is very clean, obviously because Xie Qin cleans it frequently.
"The collection on the second floor is all internal skills and mental methods. They are self-created internal skills and mental methods by past guild masters. They are all of great reference value. You can also take a look." Xie Qin smiled.
"It seems that this is really the most precious place in our Taixu Temple." Tianxian said with a smile.
"Well, the hard work of past temple masters is all here."
Li Ling took a look at the internal skills and mental methods on these bookshelves. Some of them were indeed exquisite, but they were also average. After all, what Li Ling practiced was the origin of the world-creating art of Yuxu Guiqi.
Learning, I don’t know how many times better than these Guanzhu.
"The most important thing is the third floor." Xie Qin led the two of them through the bookshelves on the second floor and headed towards the third floor.
"On the third floor are all the swordsmanship secret books, including the Sword Code. However, the Sword Code is the most profound swordsmanship in our Taixu Temple. Therefore, generally only those who are good at martial arts are qualified to read it. Moreover, it can only be read within seven days.
How much time can be comprehended depends entirely on the understanding of the reader."
Xie Qin led the two of them to a wooden table in the center. There was a black box on the table. Xie Qin came to the box and opened the black box. In the box, there was a gold book.
