Chapter 246
Although he was a martial arts legend, his seniority was too high and Emperor Yonghe could not control him.
Zhongzhou, Anxi Town.
This small town was originally not large in size. On weekdays, in addition to passing business travelers, people would come to burn incense and pay homage to the heroes who died in the alien war forty years ago during the Qingming Festival.
It was only after three hundred old soldiers walked out of the hundred-mile desert and Hai Wuya, the Minister of Rites of the imperial court, to worship the heroes on behalf of the emperor that the town became famous and became a famous scenic spot in Zhongzhou.
An'an Town is not far from the Great Qin Mansion. After the imperial court established the new Great Qin Mansion, this town was also classified as the Great Qin Mansion area, so it was also considered a fiefdom under the command of the King of Qin.
Therefore, after the King of Qin died in battle with many Dao Dao Sect monks, many of the people fleeing from Qin Fucheng also passed through here.
Among these people who fled, there were also a few people who had experienced it in the Daqinfu vegetable market.
As they fled, what happened in Daqin Mansion City was quickly spread across Zhongzhou.
The former Xi'an Town Inn is now overcrowded.
The owner of the inn at that time made a sign, saying that the Qiao family had stayed in this inn, and even helped him go deep into the desert for hundreds of miles, and sent him a letter from home that passed through the underworld, attracting many customers.
In the lobby of the inn, the storyteller Jiang Chen, who was wearing a long gown, was stunned and told the story of the Qiao family:
"Today, let's talk about the deeds of the Qiao family in the Great Qin City, where the King of Qin conquered Liuhe and all the immortals were crowned!"
Jiang Chen became more and more familiar with the storytelling craft, and the audience almost filled the inn lobby.
Lobby corner.
A white-haired man with a cat in his arms was playing with the cat as if no one else was watching.
The white-haired man had an ordinary life, but the variegated tabby cat in his arms was round and round, with a small round face and a fluffy face. Every hair seemed to exude a faint luster, which was quite eye-catching.
"You fat pig, when are you going to repay your favor?" Qiao Mu stretched out his hand and jerked Wu Chang wildly, but halfway through, he lost interest:
"Forget it, you're so fat. If you really want to transform into a wild boar, you might as well become a spirit. It's better to be a cat."
The cat's eyes widened like bells when he heard it. His little short legs struggled in the air a few times, as if he wanted to run away, but where could he escape?
After publishing half of "Human Dao Jing" and reaching the martial arts super level, this cat can no longer escape from Qiao Mu's grasp.
Especially after practicing the Eight Steps of the Heavenly Dragon, Qiao Mu now can catch this round but flexible little piggy without the disintegration of the Heavenly Demon.
Qiao Mu picked up the clear tea on the table and drank it down in one gulp, teasing the cat casually, and felt quite comfortable listening to the storyteller bragging about his prowess and talking about his glorious deeds.
He is now 375 years old. He is not as old as any dynasty from ancient times to the present.
But after waking up from the dream, he still stubbornly maintained the little hobby of his youth:
Playing with cats, listening to people brag about how awesome you are, and being a saint in front of others.
The more lonely I feel in my dream, the more I feel that this simple life has its own leisurely pleasure.
"This is life. What's the point of being in jail all the time? You no longer have a life of your own."
At this moment, a person walked in from outside the inn and sat at Qiao Mu's table. It was Wayne after the same simple disguise.
"Brother Qiao."
"Tingchao Tower has released a new list of the top four gods of strength and skill. Your name is also on it. Do you want to take a look?" Wayne said.
"I never value false fame. What's so good about it?"
"And Martial Saint, didn't he not appear on the list back then? What's so interesting about the list of Martial Saints?" Qiao Mu was very reserved.
Wayne only said two sentences to stir up Qiao Mu's thoughts:
"The sword that banished immortals in the past was actually number one in Tingchao Tower's skill list. Do you want to see the other three lists?"
"It's just that there is no hero list now, only the top four list of powerful and powerful skills. Otherwise, the Sword Banished Immortal may also be expected to be the best in the world, but his life and death are in doubt... Mujian Sanren Lu Yanbei insists that he is not dead. , so it’s still on the list.”
Chapter 260 The strongest people in the world (4k
"Since there is Sword Exiled Immortal, Tingchao Tower's list is still somewhat valuable." Qiao Mu nodded.
He took the Tingchaolou Martial Arts Ranking from Wayne's hand and glanced at it briefly.
It’s not just Wayne either.
There are many martial arts warriors gathered in An'an Town. Many of them have obtained the latest martial arts rankings in their hands and are discussing it lively.
"Number one on the power list, 'Demon Spear' Qing Li."
"Eighth on the power list, 'Vajra of the Flesh' Vajra."
"Nineth on the strength list, Qiao family's Immortal Fighter, Qiao Shuangtuo."
"Qiao Shuangtuo and Qiao Miao are said to be brothers of the Qiao family, with similar strength. The latter uses King Qin's golden body as a sword and attacks immortals with force. The former can also kill immortal golden elixir monks, and then returns to Da Qin Fucheng to deal with them. Brother Qiao Miao's corpse, and announced in a high profile that he had avenged his brother Qiao Miao."
No, why did Tingchaolou even record how I brag about my awesomeness?
Qiao Mu couldn't hold himself any longer.
But then he also had some doubts.
"I'm ninth on the power list? If there are really so many strong men in this world, then where will it be my turn to defeat the immortals with force?" Qiao Mu was a little confused.
"Brother Qiao doesn't know something." Wayne explained:
"This power list starts with the number one 'demon spear' Qing Li, and the first to seventh ones are all half-demon, not pure-blooded humans."
"In terms of physical strength alone, it is naturally difficult for a pure-blooded human race to catch up with monster beasts or some half-demon with the blood of a great demon."
"It's just that although these half-demon bodies are strong and infinitely powerful, far superior to mortals, their bodies are somewhat different from those of our human race. It is difficult for them to practice internal strength and martial arts. It remains to be seen who will win in the actual fight. ”
Mortal hunters can hunt lions, tigers and grizzly bears, not because the hunters are stronger and have sharper nails than wild beasts, but because they have brains and hands and know how to use weapons.
"Can a half-demon be on Tingchao Tower's martial arts rankings?" Qiao Mu was still puzzled.
"This is indeed quite controversial, but Tingchaolou insists on it." Wayne explained:
"I heard from Chaolou that these powerful half-demon regard themselves as human beings. They also have human blood and practice human martial arts. Why can't they be listed on the list?"
"For example, the 'Demon Spear' Qing Li, who is number one in the power list, is the child raised by the previous generation of super martial arts master 'The Spear Saint'."
"If these half-demon are excluded, Brother Qiao is already the second most powerful pure-blood human race, second only to Wu Jingang from Wu Jihui."
Wu Vajra, the eighth on the strength list, the thirteenth among the seventy-two sages of Wu Jihui, is born with divine power and has infinite power. He is known as the physical Vajra.
This is one of the three thousand martial arts geniuses that Martial Saint spent forty years to find on the land of Kyushu. He is the disciple of Martial Saint with the highest achievement in the path of strength.
Wayne explained:
"The top ten on the list of the top four martial arts gods are no longer a field that ordinary martial artists can reach through hard work alone. They are either gifted with extraordinary talent, have a series of adventures, or have peerless qualifications."
"A descendant of a great demon, a physical Vajra born with divine power, a son of luck who ate a strange fruit after falling off a cliff and gained a hundred years of power... and so on."
Qiao Mu summed it up in his mind, it was all nonsense. Either rely on luck, talent, or understanding.
Unlike me, Qiao Mu, who can practice martial arts to a super-level level of strength and strength, it all depends on my own efforts.
What, am I a dick too?
That's okay.
If you look at it this way, Tingchaolou's list of cheating protagonists seems to be quite valuable.
"Okay, just say yes." Qiao Mu continued reading:
"Number one on the powerful list, the contemporary head of the Blood Family, with a long river of blood."
Qiao Mu had heard the so-called Blood Family mentioned by the storyteller Clairvoyance of Chaolou before.
It is said that this family has a special constitution, but it was cursed by the bloodline of the immortal cultivators and could not live to be fifty years old.
In order to avenge and perpetuate future generations, each generation of family heads will spend their entire lives inculcating the skills of their descendants before the age of fifty. Therefore, the skills passed down from generation to generation are far beyond the reach of ordinary martial artists.
However, the Blood Family's method of play relies on the special family initiation secret method and the Blood Family's special bloodline. Other warriors cannot imitate it.
"Second on the powerful list, Qiao family's Immortal Fighter, Qiao Shuangqiao."
"Number one on the skill list, 'Sword Banished Immortal' Lu Yannan."
"Forty years ago, Sword Banished Immortal dominated the world with his peerless swordsmanship. At the age of thirty, he reached the top of the martial arts world. Forty years ago, he became the number one in the world and the leader of martial arts.
"His favorite swordsmanship, the 'Sword Cutting Technique', is unparalleled in the world."
"Although he is a martial artist, in the era when immortal cultivators appeared, he was known as the 'Sword Banished Immortal' by everyone in the martial arts world."
"Suspected to have died in the hundreds of miles of desert, life or death is in doubt, temporarily ranked first."
""
"Thirteenth on the skill list, Qiao Shuangtuo."
"Thirty on the skill list, 'Wooden Sword Sanren' Lu Yanbei."
"Number one on the divine list, 'Little Martial Saint' Wu Qiankun."
"Wu Qiankun is the current leader of Wujihui, and he has the appearance of a martial saint."
"After the death of Wu Shengren, many people whose relatives died at the hands of Wu Shengren tried to take revenge, including many famous martial arts celebrities, but they all disappeared in the end, only Wu Qiankun is still there."
....
Tingchaolou's top four martial arts lists are not lists of martial arts levels...the hero list, which ranked martial artists in the world according to their strength, was canceled decades ago.
"Qing Li is the "demon spear" at the top of the power list, the Blood Family is on the strong list, the sword is banished to immortals on the skill list, and Wu Qiankun is the "Little Martial Saint" on the god list." Someone discussed loudly:
"This is a martial artist in the contemporary martial arts world. He is the strongest person who has reached the ultimate level in the four paths of strength, strength, skill and god."
Some people shook their heads secretly and commented on the four top leaders one by one:
"These four people are strong."
"It's just that characters like Blood River and Demon Spear are powerful, but it's difficult for those who come after them to imitate them."
"The "Sword-killing and Drawing the Sword Technique" used to banish the immortal cannot be called a kind of martial arts, it can only be called a brilliant "skill"."
"Only Xiaowu Sheng Wu Qiankun, who studied under Wu Shengren, or the Wu Jihui he controls, has a super-grade martial art in his hands."
"The Martial Saint is called a sage by his martial arts. He has three thousand disciples and seventy-two sages."
"The number of strong men he has trained with his own hands has long surpassed that of the great sects such as Wudang Shaolin in the past..."
"Huh? In what age, there are still people who boast about the martial arts saint? The martial saint's filial son and grandson are here?" Someone immediately stared:
"The strength of Wujihui is also built on the corpses of many great families."
"Without the martial arts saints who swept through the martial arts sects and plundered martial arts secrets to build arsenals, Wu Jihui would never have become as powerful as it is today. The co-author who died was not a member of your family, so why not let this bragging go?"
There are many murders committed by Saint Wu and his subordinates Wu Jihui. Many of the martial arts warriors in these teahouses have lost their relatives and friends as a result. Naturally, they will easily get angry when they hear the praise of Saint Wu.
"It's boring. Ting Chao Lou's martial arts ranking is nothing more than that. Why are we martial artists fighting for these false names?" Qiao Mu shook his head.
As soon as he stepped out of the door of the teahouse, he heard a voice coming from behind:
"Qiao Shuangmao...why is there another Qiao family? Did these Qiao family members pop out from the cracks in the rocks and suddenly jump to the second place in the ranking?"
"Ninth on the strength list, second on the strength list, thirteenth on the skill list, and ranked on three lists at the same time? As for the god list...it is difficult to define the strength of the god-refining cultivation, so Tingchao Tower only lists If there are ten people, I doubt that Qiao Shuangqiu will be ranked among the top four!"
The foot that Qiao Mu had just extended out of the inn was silently taken back:
"It's nothing to do anyway, so it doesn't matter if you listen to other people's gossip."
More and more people noticed the sudden appearance of Qiao Shuangtuo on the martial arts list, which naturally aroused a lot of discussion:
"It's not just Qiao Shuangtuo who jumped out of the cracks in the rocks, don't forget there is also Qiao Miao. These two people were not well-known before, and they both seemed to pop out of the cracks in the rocks."
"If Qiao Miao had not died in battle, I would have been another martial arts master who ranked at the top of the third list!"
"I'm afraid this is no longer the same family. What is the origin of this Qiao family?"
"Double one grade? The layout is too small, they are a double super grade!"
"The Qiao family is more than just magical. In my opinion, their strongest strength is not their inner energy or blood, but their Qinggong!" Someone commented:
"In my opinion, the Qiao family's Qinggong is the best in the world, and no Black Winged Bat King is worthy of carrying his shoes."
Next to Qiao Mu, the corners of Wayne's eyes twitched slightly.
"No. 1 in Qinggong? How do you know that?" someone asked.
"Haven't you heard that the first Qiao family member died in battle, and the next Qiao family member can quickly kill them no matter where they are in the world? Isn't this a good thing about Qing Gong?"
"Don't you understand? This is not Qinggong at all, but teleportation! In an instant, it can span thousands of miles! I once fought side by side with the Qiao family, and I have seen it with my own eyes." A voice suddenly came from the crowd.
