Chapter 22 Prelude

The heaven and earth are positioned, the mountains and lakes are ventilated, the ones who go forward are in line, the ones who know the future are reversed, the Sumeru transforms mustard seeds, the exquisite starry sky, and the attack of the tripod.

Mu Kantian was carefully explaining the principles of "Tianyuan Linglong Taoism" to Ye Chen. He never accepted a disciple and his daughter was rarely by his side. It was the first time that he had taught martial arts so carefully.

Ye Chen held his breath and concentrated his mind, capturing the central path of the complex force, the cosmic element point, stretched out his finger and hit the distant tree with a blow. The branches broke and the leaves flew.

Yes, your finger has almost reached the state of enlightenment and transformation. It has turned the complex into the simplification of the great principles. The truth is clear and you can apply any martial arts in the future.

Ye Chen was slightly stunned and asked: What is the realm of enlightenment and transformation?What is that?

Haven't Lu Fenghui taught you this?

Ye Chen shook his head and said tactfully: I have heard of some easy muscles and bones, and enlightenment, but Zhiqing Palace does not pay much attention to martial arts practice.

Mu Kan Tiandao: Those are the nine martial arts realms circulating in the secret book of the Martial Saint "The Nine Heavens of Daluo". Although the specific practice methods have long been lost, they can also be used as reference for martial arts practitioners...

The first level of heaven is called physical training and strength. The foundation of learning martial arts is that after cultivation, it can compete with several enemies.

The second level of heaven is called Yijin forging bones, commonly known as steel bars and iron bones, and is also the peak of outer kung fu. It can kill wild boars and yaks, and it will fight to kill more than a dozen people.

The third level of heaven is called the inner breath true qi, also known as internal cultivation. If the muscles, flesh and bones are perfect, they must go from the outside to the inside. If the rules of the world are practiced, they can be considered as a martial arts master who can enter the house. They can compete with forty or fifty people. Generally speaking, the martial arts masters of ordinary sects will stop here even if they are great.

The fourth level of heaven is called Jingyuan Marrow Cleansing, which emptys the turbid air, impurities, and toxins in the body. It is similar to the transformation in religious stories. Although the combat power has not been improved, the root and bone realm has been improved, and all magical skills and martial arts can be practiced without stagnation. Only the holy land of the martial arts or the nine major sects have mastered this secret to cutting hair and marrow cleansing.

The fifth level of heaven is called Gangjin Guiyuan. The internal force embraces Yuanguiyi. The Qi condenses the true energy and can be released outward. The boxing has a thousand pounds of force, and the palm wind is several feet away. Most of the true elite disciples of various major sects are at this level. If they are besieged by ordinary enemies, they can be a hundred enemies or even more.

The sixth level of heaven is called "Transparenting the Gods and Enlightenment". It no longer adheres to the moves and moves, begins to understand the artistic conception of martial arts, and controls the cultivation of the qi to the peak of the qi condensation entity. It is the average level of the so-called genius disciples, the Holy Land Hall Master, the Hall Master, and the Pavilion Master, that is, the cultivation level of Lu Yinxuan, Wang Xingchan, and Murong Jiaye. At this point, practice thoroughly and enter the realm of transformation, and you can establish a sect and become a master-level figure in the martial arts world.

Ye Chen felt a little disappointed in his complacentness. He had broken through the sixth level for several months. The mystery of the adventure was rare in the ages. However, no matter whether it was the Chaos Yin and Yang Dao or the internal strength obtained by Qin huà Jin, he was not cultivated by himself diligently. I was afraid that the foundation would be unsolicited and would eventually become a mirror and a moon. The senior master is here, who else can he ask if he doesn’t ask him?

Hearing this, Mu Kantian said indifferently: The money he earns is money, the money he picked up on the road is also money, the money he stole is still money, one tael is one tael, and one hundred tael is one hundred tael.The value is exactly the same. Just see through this level. I have dozens of martial arts secret books in my cave. No matter how hard I practice hard, I will never be able to practice to the point of enlightenment. In addition to accumulating experience in actual combat, luck adventures are equally important. Just like Nie Qianque is less than 30 years old. If he had not had the magic medicine of the Divine Martial Palace, how could he practice to this point?

Ye Chen was in a clear state of mind and asked again: Is there a more powerful third level of heaven?

Mu looked at the sky and smiled, raised his hand and bounced his fingers. The sound of thunder was heard. A small pond not far away exploded with water columns. A big red carp fell on the big rock by the pond. He slowly stepped up and slashed down at the fish body, and the big rock shattered instantly.

The carp did not see any abnormality, and was still struggling in the pile of gravels.

Mu Kantian waved it casually, and the carp entered the water and swam quickly... Ye Chen was stunned. It was nothing unusual to crack a big stone with his palm, but the control technique of exerting force through the fish was really shocking, and it was several times more difficult than the so-called control power in "Tianyuan Linglong Taoism".

The seventh level of heaven is called the blink of an eye. It does not mean that lightning is popping up to hit people, but a metaphor for a random blow that can trigger the power of heaven and earth, blasting out boundless power that cannot be blocked, and can release or withdraw. It controls its skills to the extreme. After Nie Qianque was seriously injured, he may barely touch the threshold of this heavy realm. Four or five demon kings, including Ning Wuji, including the sect leader, the chief of the clan, the clan leader, and the Lan Shuoyun, all their cultivation can blink thunder. Such figures can already look down on the imperial power, and they can come and go freely even when facing the siege of thousands of people holding weapons. Theoretically speaking, the physical mortal martial arts practice has reached its peak. If there is no great opportunity, it is really difficult to make progress.

Ye Chen's vision was even wider, and he vaguely felt that his father-in-law was not just like this. He was excited and said: However, there are two levels of heaven behind him.

The eighth level of heaven is called a thought of all things. It is logical that the great way is invisible, and it is tangible when it falls into human hands. However, this peerless master at the highest level has completely broken free from the constraints. He can form his own moves and laws, his own martial arts system, and his own worldly path. I have already reached this level, but I cannot completely do whatever I want. It is estimated that it will take another year and a half to go with the martial arts giants such as Huangfu Zhengdao, Jiangshan Qijie, and Yàn Cangsheng who have already thought of all things.Mu Kantian thought about it and added: Zeng Hen Shui Senior Brother Tian Zong genius, ten years ago, was the peak of thunder in the blink of an eye. He sat in the death gate for so long, accumulated strength and made a big splash, and a thought of everything was basically a foregone conclusion, and there was no suspense.

Ye Chen said: Needless to say, the ninth level of heaven is the Martial Saint who smashes the void.

Mu Kan Tiandao: Well, you should have a concept in Feihun Rift. Except for Huangquan Tianzun and Brahma Love, no one can tell what the secret of the Martial Saint has.

Ye Chen suddenly thought and asked: "The Chaos Yin and Yang Path" is responsible for the circulation of Yin and Yang, "The Sun Sword Book" is responsible for the righteous way of heaven. Judging from the name of "Taiyi Xuanhuang Sutra" is responsible for the mystery of heaven and earth, "The Yuanshi Life and Death Art" is responsible for the mystery of life, and "The Nine Heavens of Daluo" is responsible for the body itself. If the five classics are united...will there be a higher realm?

Mu Kantian saw that his cultivation was much higher than that of the Ghost Face Man. He speculated: The five secrets cannot all fall into one person's hands. If you take one person's hands, you will never think of all the things being made without a few hundred years of life. In addition, you must be clear that no matter how magical the secrets are, it is also a secret. It is a martial art. If all the martial arts are refined, it means the highest martial arts skills. It will not be anything else. There is nothing to chat after dinner, and it is useless to be too persistent.

Ye Chen didn't know that his father-in-law was implicitly pointing to Mo Xue and returned from his master Lu Feng, and said with a smile: When he heard what his master said, he suddenly realized. Instead of thinking about all things and shattering the void, it is better to consolidate his skills.

Mu Kan Tian said with a serious look: This so-called ninth level of heaven can only be used as a reference for speculation against the enemy, and it cannot be absolutely accurate. In addition, there are also people using swords, some using swords, some using hidden weapons, some using rich experience in facing the enemy, and some relying on their wisdom and courage to defeat the enemy. It's good that you know it.

Ye Chen's internal energy cultivation at this time had reached the level of enlightenment, but his moves were really lacking. Mu Guantian followed the flow and taught him a lot of fancy military fighting skills to remove the fancy military fighting skills, and tried his best to match his own sword technique, which was simple, fast, practical and ruthless.

After staying in the Marquis' Mansion for a few days, Ye Chen focused on learning martial arts and did not have any intimate behavior with Mu Lanting. Before leaving, he kowtowed and sincerely thanked Mu to see the kindness of the martial arts in heaven. He went to the inner courtyard to pay homage to the old lady and her mother, Mrs. Mu.

Mr. Ye, please don’t be polite, please use tea.Mrs. Mu is not old, wearing a brocade robe, with a round face and a phoenix eye. She speaks politely, but her eyes are disdainful.

Ye Chen lowered his head and drank tea, but knew nothing about the tea ceremony, so he had to hide his weakness and remained silent.

Mrs. Mu smiled and said: I have been neglecting recently. What about this Donghuai Goddess Tea?Mr. Ye also gave a taste.

The old lady was covered in silver hair and a kind-looking face. After hearing this, she frowned slightly. Mu Lanting was waiting by her side, but instead smiled and said nothing, wanting to see how Ye Chen dealt with it.

Ye Chen said with a tough bullet: It's very hot.

Young Master Ye is really good at telling jokes.Mrs. Mu sneered in her heart, but seeing the boy's unique appearance was a little incomprehensible. She thought that this person saved Lanting's life and rewarded her heavily. The Marquis actually revealed that she wanted to marry her daughter to a civilian. Alas, Lanting was almost raised by Concubine Ling, and she also learned from her aunt's willful habit. She was afraid that she would not be persuaded back, so she could only find a way to make the boy retreat.

Mu Lanting was embarrassed. He said nothing to gossip with his grandmother, and thought to himself: I am usually slick, but I have become dull recently.

Mrs. Mu refused to give in and continued: This bowl of refreshment is called steamed sugar-steamed cherry crispy. Only the goat milk from Xichu and the white sugar from Beijing can be used to make this color. The upper three-color flowers are roses, moon dew and yellow chrysanthemums from the three provinces of Jiangbei, and are seasoned with local potato strips and preserved fruits in Yanzhou. Lanting liked to eat them most when he was a child.

Ye Chenqi said: I eat less snacks, I really don’t know that the ingredients for this bowl of cheese are so particular.

You can say something humanly, Mrs. Mu smiled and said: Not only Ah, Western Chu is thousands of miles away, and sheep milk is inconvenient to preserve. In order to avoid the taste, it is necessary to use ice and ginger salt to calm down. It is really hard to say the hardships along the way. A can of milk is worth a hundred taels, which seems ordinary, but the emperor may not be able to eat such authentic Qiongshu.

Uh, it's really fragrant and sweet.

Mrs. Mu rolled her eyes in her heart. She originally implied that the two of them had a far different status. Mu Lanting is a precious and rare Qiongshu. At best, you, Ye Chen, are lardshu... It seems that you are a piece of lardshu for a while... It seems that you are a pleasing to the bull.

Ye Chen suddenly said again: I don’t agree with the wife.

When he came, Mrs. Mu felt nervous. The old lady smiled and said: Our Marquis’s mansion doesn’t have that bad rules. You kid will say whatever you want.

Ye Chen smiled and said politely: When I was a child, I lived in the countryside near the grassland. People often stored some milk at home but couldn't bear to drink it. They had no place to find ice cubes. In order to store it, they could only boil it by boiling it and steaming it into powder. When they wanted to drink it, they could only boil it in hot water. However, they could only taste some milk. It was already gone. Although the ice can travel for a long distance, the ice melt will eventually lose its fresh milk. The process is complicated. If you think about it carefully, it seems that you have lost your true nature. The younger generation has vulgar knowledge. Don't be surprised by the old lady and aunt.

Well, this kind of thing is indeed a bit flashy and extravagant, so it is better to find something fresh and delicious.The old lady smiled and didn't care at all.

Mrs. Mu was silent. It was not necessarily true that expensive. She thought to herself that this kid didn't look like a nouveau riche who knew nothing.

Mu Lanting suddenly said: Old Lady, Mother, Ye Chen and I are on the way.

Mrs. Mu sighed: Have you left again in just a few days?

The old lady scolded: The children of the Mu family pay attention to heroic style, why are you a mother-in-law and mother?

Mu Lanting said: Lanting and Ye Chen have been through life and death for many days, so it’s okay to walk with each other.

Mrs. Mu got up and tidyed her daughter's temples, opened her mouth, hesitated for a long time, and finally said nothing.

********************

The sky was gloomy and lightning was hidden in the rolling clouds. On the road to Hongwu Gate, horses and countless martial arts people gathered from all directions. This championship meeting was unprecedented. In addition to the young talents of the six holy places and four major families, there were also nine sects with a reputation and status of the second most level to them, and they all sent elite disciples to the meeting.

Every young man is dressed in a furious horse, with a magical weapon, and is majestic. Every girl is either heroic, dignified, generous, or gorgeous. In short, all young people are eager to take this opportunity to become famous and become the center of everyone.

Of course, there were also a few young people along the way who were covered in old clothes, such as wooden swords and rust swords and knives. They didn't care about other people's gazes and walked to Hongwu Gate.

Uncle Master, are those rustic country bumpkins also coming to the championship meeting?Shh, the more independent adolescent ado, the more amazing the arts. Maybe anyone will have the adventure of falling off the cliff and picking up martial arts secrets. Don’t rely on our famous sects to look down on others.

Look, those monks are monks from Jiletian Zen Temple. The one in front is Daoyu, right?

Dozens of martial arts people on the road were in agitation, including some seniors over 60 years old. More than a dozen monks wearing moon-white robes came slowly in the distance. One of them was twenty-seven or eight years old, with a simple face and calm temperament. Occasionally, if someone who was familiar with him greeted him, he would smile kindly and gracefully, stop and return the favor, but his expression and tone were consistent, without any emotional fluctuations, almost like a Buddha.

This is the sword monk Tao Yu, the strongest master below the four heavenly kings of Jiletian Zen Temple.

No wonder the six holy places are the first innate and the second in Pure Land. This style is really a matter of people’s hearts. If the people who lack concentration are not strong, they may even have the urge to kneel down and bow down.

The Zen sect has never recognized his parents and relatives. They are best at this kind of confusing thing, so let's keep some gods.

Haha, look at what Brother Ding Wu said, our three gangs and five villages have been making money in the border for many years, and are a thousand miles apart from the six holy places in the Central Plains. Are you still afraid that Daoyu will cause trouble for us?

Why did a group of scholars come...Ah, no, is that from Chunqiu Academy? I wonder if Shangguan Langxuan has come.

The leader is Li Fuchen, the head of the Four Seasons Pavilion in the Chunqiu Academy. The one behind must be Shangguan Langxuan. People in the world say that this woman has outstanding martial arts skills and unparalleled thinking. She is an extremely powerful character.

Although she walked behind the uncle, Shangguan Langxuan was noble and elegant, elegant, elegant, and beautiful, and even more eye-catching. She wore a stand-up collar and wide-sleeved skirt, a brocade hanging belt with a leather belt on her waist, and a three-foot black-shewn ancient sword hanging on the side, which not only highlighted her delicate figure, but also showed solemn and squareness, and her aura was no less than that of the sword monk Taoist jade.

In the world, only the six holy places can cultivate people like Daoyu and Shangguan Langxuan. Our Qingyun Sect is also a sect that has been passed down for a hundred years, but there is no such genius.

Although these two people are amazing, don’t forget the leader of the Mascot. When it comes to the young handsome man in the world, he has to recommend Ning Wuji first, but he doesn’t know if he has come.

The great master of the Martial Saint is naturally a different matter. It is said that Nie Qianque, a Tianyuan Sect, has been a thousand miles a day, and this time the champion will fight Ning Wuji.

Who did you hear?This is amazing news, but Ning Wuji practiced the "Taiyi Xuanhuang Sutra", which understood the mystery of the underworld. Why should Nie Qianque hit someone in the blink of an eye?His master once hated that water had come in person, maybe it was almost the same.

I didn't know, it wasn't me who beat me anyway, so we'll just watch the fun.

There was the carriage of the Ji family. I don’t know if it was the eldest young master Ji Liuyin or the seventh young master Ji Liuchen. The style of the leader of the four major families is indeed extraordinary.

The head of the Ji family has a strong family, with fifteen sons and nine daughters, but the only sons born to the eldest wife of the main wife are the eldest, the fourth and the seventh sons. The fourth son Ji Liuguang is a transcendent and ranks one of the seven masters. He has already had a friendship with the peers of the head of the Holy Land, and is unlikely to attend such a scene.

Langya Sword Tower has been competing with the Innate Tai Chi Sect for more than ten years, and there is even a good show. I think the girl in white is Hua Yin, the daughter of Hua Taixian. Could it be that the sword she wears is... Feng Tianwu?

The five-mouthed magic swords in this world are Chengxian, Xuehuang, Taigan, Jiuyou Crescent, and one of them is Hua Yin's sword at this time Fengtianwu.

The calamity of Taixian caused a sensation in the martial arts world in the past. Hua Taixian, who was in his early twenties, relied on Feng Tianwu's invincible divine edge and defeated the representative poster of Langya Sword Tower, the seven sword heads and countless guardian elders, and sat on the position of the head of the Holy Land. Even the innate Taiji Sect could not do anything. The limelight was so terrifying that it was not under Ji Liuguang at all.

The scabbard is fiery red, the sword spears are like ink, and the sharpness is like a phoenix dancing in the sky.

The owner of Langya brought Feng Tianwu to his daughter Hua Yin. Could it be that she would also have a big battle with Ning Wuji today?Even if there is a gap in cultivation, relying on this magical sword to support it, there is a chance of winning.

The heroes and heroes in the martial arts world gathered more and more. Even if they had never met each other, they had heard of each other's reputation. They talked about, greeted, chatted, and got close to each other, all of whom were afraid of being neglected. They were just a waste of time. Before they arrived at Hongwu Gate, they were already crowded and could not walk, and it was extremely lively.

Not far away, Ye Chen and Mu Lanting covered their cloaks, hiding in everyone, watching the crowds of people find it interesting and fun.

Hongwu Sect has such a great deal of face, so many people have to appreciate their faces to attend the meeting.

Mu Lanting said: Mr. Bai Guchan, the head of the Hongwu Sect, is 70 years old. He has long reached the level of thunder in his fingers. No one will refuse to receive a post from him, let alone the gathering in the martial arts holy land, and the benefits of stuttering a little will be endless.

Ye Chen looked around for a while and said: Didn’t you see the people from our Tianyuan Sect?

Mu Lanting's face turned slightly red: They might be walking in front. I thought, why don't I go and meet them first.

Why?Ye Chen was stunned, and then he thought that if the two of them met Nie Qianque, Wen Xue and others together, they would inevitably be extremely embarrassed. If they acted separately, it seemed that they could save a lot of nonsense and trouble, that would be fine, anyway.

Mu Lanting nodded. In addition, the purpose of this trip is to meet people. It is not convenient for us to be together every day...

Ye Chen felt a stern and whispered: I don’t know how that guy will look for me.

You have to remember that this champion will never provoke Ning Wuji. We have learned the secret script of the Martial Saint. We don’t know what we learned clearly. We can only explore it ourselves. He can have the guidance of the Martial Saint, let alone this person’s high level of power and the head of the Holy Land…

Ye Chen hurriedly said: I don’t want to be the number one genius in the martial arts world, why bother to provoke him?

That's good. Nie Qianque didn't know whether he wanted to challenge Daoyu or Wang Xingchan, so it would be better to fight with others first.You carefully observe his flaws...and...

Many times, the two of them were inseparable from each other. At this time, they were about to separate. Mu Lanting became abnormal and started talking too much. This statement lasted for a long time.

Until Ye Chen couldn't help but smile and said: Are Xiaolanting so reluctant to let go?Let's go on the road together.

Mu Lanting stomped his feet and said: Who can’t bear to bear it? You go!Leave now, don't bother me!

When Ye Chen saw her being angry with a young lady, he immediately lowered his head and smiled a lot of good words.After a while, Mu Lanting said: I have been upset recently and always feel that there will be danger, but you dislike me for being long-winded.There is no such intention, but there are many forces in the championship meeting, competing for fame and face. I am not a remnant of the devil, and it is not my turn to be the target of public criticism. What danger can there be?

Mu Lanting hesitated for a moment and said: I hope so.I thought to myself: If there is really danger, even if I try my best to use the Sun Sword Qi to make a big comeback.

Around the heroes, a bald giant man like a meaty mountain stood on the hill, with his hands behind his back, with a solemn and domineering demeanor, making people dare not look directly at it, as if he was like a demon beast from the ancient times. Murong Kashyapa behind this man bowed deeply and said respectfully: I never expected that the nameless boy of Tianyuan Sect would alarm you, Mr. Jingzang.

This giant man is one of the seven heroes of the country, and is also the great protector of the innate Tai Chi Sect. He is known as the Hong Jingzang of the Rain Dragon.

Hong Jingzang didn't look back and said sarcastically: In the past, Ning Wuji lost the "Chaos Yin and Yang Path", which can be said to be a thought of all things. You have a great martial arts skills. You are carrying the innate urinary method and actually let a little girl steal the "Sun Sword Note". If I don't come, would you let the supreme leader do it yourself?

Murong Kaye knelt on the ground in a hurry, and was so scared that he burst into tears, but he said in his heart: The seven heroes of the country are here, Ye Chen and the others will definitely be unable to escape, but how could the Supreme Master of the Sect be so anxious?

He actually sent Hong Jingzang to come...
