The Kunlun Mountains are located to the west of Shenzhou, reaching Xining County in Yongzhou in the east, and connecting to the Gobi desert in the far west to the west, spanning nearly four thousand miles.
If people from China want to go to Kunlun to become a disciple, they have to start from Guanzhong and cross Longyou to Xining County.
Then take the Qiangzhong Road to enter Shazhou, pass through Ruoqiang along the northern foot of the Kunlun Mountains, Qiemo, Yutiansan Town, and finally arrive at Shule Town to rest for a few days.
Then go south into the Kunlun Mountains and reach the Kunlun Tianzhu.
However, Kunlun disciples don't need to go to such trouble when going out.
All you need to do is take off the sword from Tianzhu, follow the trend of the Kunlun Mountains to the east, pass through the three areas of Beicheng, Xuanpu, and Fantong in sequence, and reach Xining County not far after leaving the Kunlun Mountains.
Then turn southeast and cross Longyou to reach Chang'an.
The whole journey is about 6,000 miles and can be completed in just one and a half hours.
Qiu Changtian and Xu Yinglian rose up with their swords, crossed the entire mountain range from west to east, and reached Yuxu Peak on the eastern edge of Fantong.
Yuxu Peak is the location of the Kunlun Taiqing Sect's external deacon hall. Whether it is the management of external industries or training tasks, they are all uniformly distributed on Yuxu Peak.
Located at the foot of the mountain to the northeast of Yuxu Peak is "Chitai", the largest city outside Kunlun. There is also "Kunlun Spring" in it. It is said that bathing in it can beautify the skin. It is a holy place where female disciples of Kunlun Taiqing Sect linger.
.
Xu Yinglian stayed in the Yuxufeng Deacon Hall for a while, and then he wanted to take a bath in Kunlun Spring.
However, seeing that Qiu Changtian was still patiently browsing the mission jade plaques on the wall, he had no choice but to suppress his impulse and accompany him to continue selecting.
"Cooperate to explore the newly discovered ruins of the Qishan Mountains?" Looking at one of the tasks, Xu Yinglian suddenly said, eager to try, "This looks good and challenging."
"No answer." Qiu Changtian's answer was also very concise.
"What about this one?" Xu Yinglian asked again, "Searching for the severely injured Demon Cult monks who fled here from Beimang Mountain?"
"I won't answer either."
"Why?" Xu Yinglian asked in confusion.
"Because it's too troublesome." Qiu Changtian said, looking at the jade plaque next to "Remove the raging monsters".
Hunting monsters, this kind of mission has clear goals and a short process. You can quickly get the spiritual stone reward, and quickly give it to Ling Yunpo to solve his urgent need!
"Trouble?" Xu Yinglian asked in confusion, "We are here for training, why are we afraid of trouble?"
Qiu Changtian laughed and said:
"Exploring the ruins? Who knows how big the ruins are and how long it will take to explore?"
"As for the search for the seriously injured Demon Cult monk, who knows where that guy went? If the task continues for ten days and a half and there is no result, I'm afraid I won't even have a chance to soak in Kunlun Spring!"
Xu Yinglian's face turned red, thinking that he had seen through her thoughts, and her voice lowered unconsciously:
"If necessary, I don't have to take a dip in Kunlun Spring this time. There will always be opportunities in the future..."
"Who told you?" Qiu Changtian glanced at her, "I mean I want to soak in Kunlun Spring myself."
Then Junior Sister Hei Changzhi's face quickly turned cold again, and her eyes began to look scary.
"What do you think of this mission?" Qiu Changtian pointed to the jade plaque next to him and said, "Hunting monster beasts, are you interested?"
"Let's forget it." Xu Yinglian sneered again and again, "I'm chasing monsters in the deep mountains and forests, and my vision is dim. I'm afraid that I might accidentally miss my flying sword and stab my senior brother."
"Could it be that my junior sister has bad eyesight?" Qiu Changtian asked in surprise, "This is the first time I've heard that a four-legged monster can be confused with a monk."
"Although there are differences in appearance, their temperaments are both smelly and annoying." Xu Yinglian looked away, "I really can't tell the difference with my eyes closed."
"So why is junior sister using sword control with her eyes closed? Is she planning to murder senior brother and seize the position of chief?"
"If senior brother can be assassinated by junior sister so easily, doesn't it mean that senior brother is not worthy of sitting in this chief position?"
"Uh, you just said 'assassination', right?"
"Senior brother heard it wrong, junior sister said 'manslaughter'."
"There is a difference between manslaughter and assassination. How could I hear it wrong?"
"It seems that my senior brother's ears are not very good either. Why don't I recite the 'Ear-clearing and Breathing Mantra' to my senior brother? Otherwise, if I can't even hear the master's sermon clearly, my brothers and sisters will suffer when he comes back to explain it."
"Junior sister, don't change the subject!"
“If you don’t listen with your ears, listen with your heart; if you don’t listen with your heart, listen with your breath…”
"So don't read it!"
Seeing Qiu Changtian speechless by her words, Xu Yinglian couldn't help but smile coldly.
She finally found a way to not fall behind in front of her senior brother, which was to use aggressive and cold words to fight back tit for tat.
Although this is completely inconsistent with the tutoring of the Xu family in Tiannan, if the clan elder heard her speaking so harshly, he would most likely faint from anger.
But she didn't want to be thrown off guard by Qiu Changtian, which would be another unbearable failure.
Qiu Changtian caught a glimpse of her smile from the corner of his eye, and sighed secretly in his heart.
"Just accept this mission of hunting monsters." He pointed at the sign and said.
"Since senior brother didn't listen to the advice, don't blame me if something happens." Xu Yinglian deliberately scared him.
"Junior sister, don't worry." Qiu Changtian smiled and pointed to the Taiyi Light Sword carried behind him.
————————
When talking about the Taiyi Light Sword, we have to mention that before and after the collapse of the ancient Chanjie sect, the flying sword system was different.
First of all, for the two ancient Chanjie sects, there is no such thing as several levels of flying swords. All flying swords are at the level of fairy swords.
However, after the collapse of the two religions, the weapon masters lost the method of forging perfect immortal swords, so they could only forge lower-grade flying swords for use by practitioners below immortals.
So there was a division system of levels one to ten, namely the "Tiangan Sword Forging Technique". Restoring the casting method of the tenth level fairy sword has become the dream of all weapon refiners.
Secondly, in order to make up for the low-level flying sword's combat power, the research on the Taoist seal on the flying sword had to be strengthened.
For example, a ninth-level flying sword requires nine Taoist techniques of different strengths to be sealed on it. When the user's realm increases by one level, the flying sword's Taoist techniques will be unsealed by one level, thus perfectly matching the user's level of strength.
For example, Qiu Changtian's Jade Smoke Sword, because he is currently at the Qi Refining level, can only unlock the first level of Taoism on it, which is called "Dragon Qi Panning the Sea of Clouds".
Just pinch the sword formula with your hand and recite quickly or silently "Brilliant clouds fall as rain, jade rainbow creates smoke", you can activate the sword technique and deploy a large number of lightsabers to attack and contain the enemy.
However, since the Taiyi Splitting Light Sword is a super powerful fairy sword that has existed since ancient times, it naturally does not comply with the tenth level of Heavenly Stem Sword Forging Technique.
There are only three forbidden methods on it (the so-called forbidden methods are very powerful ancient Taoist methods), two of which were sealed by the headmaster Ziwei, and only one is left, which is called "Connecting the Mountains to the Sea".
After it is activated, it can pull out endless mountains and seas, trap the enemy in them and suppress them. It can be said to be a nearly omnipotent means of saving life and killing.
After Qiu Changtian finished explaining, Xu Yinglian stopped provoking any more.
Although she wants to win and is very strong, she is not so arrogant that she looks down on the forbidden magic of immortal swords.
Since the senior brother is protected by the Taiyi Light Sword, no matter who the monster to be hunted is, it cannot threaten their safety.
Thinking about it this way, she was a little eager to give it a try. She wished she could quickly find the whereabouts of the monster and kill it before her senior brother.
"When should we set off?" Xu Yinglian asked urgently.
"Don't worry, if we want to find the whereabouts of the monster, we must first contact the other disciples who have accepted this mission." Qiu Changtian said in a leisurely tone.
"Before that, how about you take a dip in Kunlun Spring?"
