Chapter 70 Wulaotan, the origin of the Seven Peaks Competition
However, he actually has nothing to refute for this reason. The Seven Peaks Competition is held every six years, and it is normal for new disciples to want to take a look.
"Today's bento is for you to have a holiday."
As Layman Sansan said this, he raised his hand towards the rusty sword on the cliff.
With a "clang" sound, the rusty sword was pulled out from the cliff, and then flew back to Layman Sansan's hand with a "swish" sound.
"But the next practice will be more difficult day by day. If you want to become a true sword cultivator, the first thing you need to do is to control this sword more freely than your arm."
As he said this, he held up the rusty sword with his hand, and then swung his arm violently.
Following the sound of a sword blast, the flying sword in Master Sansan's hand immediately turned into a stream of light and flew straight towards the cliff.
The moment it was about to pierce the cliff, Layman Sansan raised his arm and swiped his sword finger in front of him.
In an instant, the rusty sword turned into countless rays of sword light, and these sword lights gathered into a colorful gust of wind, blowing suddenly from the cliff.
"boom!"
Amidst the loud noise, the originally bare cliff was suddenly filled with densely packed words.
"A sword is worth three thousand. When your sword control skills reach this level, you can learn my sword skills from Jian Jiu."
Layman Sansan crossed his arms across his chest and looked at the cliff in front of him proudly.
…
The main peak of Qingxuan Sect.
In front of the Fifth Ancestor Pond.
This is the place where Qingxuanzong worships the five ancestors who founded Qingxuanzong. There are huge statues of the fifth ancestors in the green pool. These five huge statues form a circle, and at the center of the circle is an extremely wide
Try Jianping.
Looking down from a high place, it looks like five ancestors are sitting around a huge stone table.
The layout of this Jianping Ping is similar to that of Zhenjian Ping on the first peak. There is a huge open space in the center, surrounded by cloud towers that can be used as stands.
Although today's event is the least important event in the competition, the seats in the Yun Tower are already filled with disciples from Qifeng.
"The Seven Peaks Competition, which is held every six years, is actually a competition held by the Fifth Ancestor to resolve disputes within the sect. It was originally said to be held once every six years, but later the peak masters thought it took too long, so they changed it to six years.
once."
"However, although the time has changed, the number of competitions and the rules have not changed either."
"For example, according to the rules set by the Fifth Ancestor, there are seven games in the Seven Peaks Competition. The entire competition will last for almost a month. The fourth game you are going to participate in today is called Dripping Water Penetrating Stone. As expected, it should be half way through.
Months later.”
Zhao Linglong, who had taken her seat early, very carefully told Xu Taiping the origin of the Seven Peaks Competition and some of the rules.
"I heard Senior Brother Qingxiao say about the general rules of these seven competitions. It seems that except for the last sword-asking Qingxuan, the rest are not head-to-head competitions between disciples."
Xu Taiping asked Zhao Linglong a doubt in his mind.
"That's right."
Zhao Linglong nodded and then explained to Xu Taiping:
"The Fifth Patriarch
In order to avoid casualties among the disciples within the sect, we did not arrange too many head-on fighting competitions. Even if it is Wenjian Qingxuan, after one side admits defeat, no more assassins are allowed."
"This approach seems completely different from the Qifeng selection."
Xu Taiping said thoughtfully.
"The Fifth Patriarch is benevolent, but he is not as stubborn as some people, and does not care about the lives of his disciples at all."
Zhao Linglong snorted coldly and pointedly.
Xu Taiping naturally knew who the "certain people" Zhao Linglong was referring to.
"Is the Qingxuan of the past different from what he is now?"
Xu Taiping was a little curious about what Qingxuan looked like in the past.
"I heard from some senior brothers that during the time of the Fifth Patriarch, the Qingxuan Sect's mountain gate was not at Yunlu Mountain, but a secret realm that was dozens of times larger than Yunlu Mountain and had dozens of times more spiritual energy. Later, I don't know why.
He was forced to move into Yunlu."
"It was also from that time that Qingxuan Sect became worse and worse day by day, and even some of the sect's martial arts books were taken away by other sects."
"But in my father's generation, Senior Brother Su Chan came out of nowhere. With one man and one sword, he aspired to be the swordsman of the Nine Palaces. This originally gave Qingxuan hope of ZTE, but he never thought that Senior Brother Su Chan would give up in the end.
He fell into the devil's path. If my uncle Bingjie hadn't returned and turned the tide, I'm afraid Qingxuan would have ceased to exist."
Zhao Linglong whispered with some emotion.
"What are you two whispering about?"
At this moment, a beautiful face suddenly approached Zhao Linglong.
"Sister Zi Yan, why are you scaring me?"
Zhao Linglong was startled and gently punched the woman on the shoulder.
The person who came was none other than Six Peaks disciple Xu Ziyan.
Behind Xu Ziyan was Lin Buyu, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
"Senior Sister Zi Yan, Junior Sister Buyu, please sit here."
Xu Taiping made way for Xu Ziyan and Lin Buyu to sit down.
However, Lin Buyu did not sit in the seat between Zhao Linglong and Xu Ziyan. Instead, he walked straight to Xu Taiping's left hand side and found an empty seat to sit down.
The little girl always went her own way, so everyone didn't think there was anything wrong with it, so they just let her go.
"Taiping, you seem to have grown taller again."
Xu Ziyan, who sat down on Xu Taiping's right hand side, stretched out her hand and gestured in surprise.
"Well, I have indeed grown taller recently."
Xu Taiping nodded and answered very seriously.
I don't know if it's because of practicing Yan Emperor's Furnace Body Forging Technique, but in just one or two months, his height has grown at a speed visible to the naked eye, and he is now on par with Senior Brother Qingxiao.
Xu Ziyan was amused by Xu Taiping's serious answer.
"Sister Buyu seems to have grown a lot lately, and she's almost as tall as me."
Zhao Linglong's eyes fell on Lin Buyu, who was on Xu Taiping's left.
"Yeah?"
Lin Buyu raised his head after hearing this.
However, she did not look at Zhao Linglong, but cast an inquiring look at Xu Taiping. However, he actually had nothing to refute for this reason. The Seven Peaks Competition was held every six years, and new disciples wanted to take a look.
Very normal.
"Today's bento is for you to have a holiday."
As Layman Sansan said this, he raised his hand towards the rusty sword on the cliff.
With a "clang" sound, the rusty sword was pulled out from the cliff, and then flew back to Layman Sansan's hand with a "swish" sound.
