Chapter 595 The Shadow of the Name Tree (two chapters in one, thank you all)

The big world of Xiandu.

"The white jade capital in the sky, the fifth floor and the twelve cities. The closest scene to this poem that I don't know where it came from is the Baocheng Paidongtian." A heavenly king with an illusory and ethereal aura looked at the nine layers of Gangqi. I sighed at the majestic and majestic city that seems to be there but not there.

It seems that the whole body is made of Geng gold, Taiyi real gold, Western gold essence and other materials, shining with sharp cold light, but surrounded by pale white clouds, it adds a lot of fairyland, plus the towering buildings and pavilions inside. , hall, palace, etc., it does feel a bit like the twelve cities on the fifth floor.

The disciple of the Heavenly Lord's Second Tribulation Yang God was equally fascinated: "And this is only the exposed part. In fact, only after entering the city gate can you see the cave sky that forms its own world, with a radius of millions of miles. Master, I heard The Baocheng Sect’s welcoming ceremony is unique, it is both solemn and respectful, and it also demonstrates their own strength.”

"Haha, I heard it from Ye Zhenjun, and I will see it with my own eyes later." Daoming Zhenjun said with a slight smile. He came to visit his friend Ye Piaoling, the Lord of the Calamity Heaven of Baocheng Sect.

As they spoke, the two of them arrived at the huge city gate. The sharp sword energy stirred in the air, but miraculously did not hurt the physical body or the soul.

Several Venerable Yinshen and Grandmasters of the Golden Pill stood in the tall and large doorway. Behind them were two rows of disciples, extending into the blue sky and white clouds outside the doorway that was hundreds of feet long. They were all wearing plain white Taoist robes. Their backs were straight, and each held a ritual flying sword made of Geng gold in their hands.

A tall Lord Yin Shen came up to him and asked respectfully: "Liang Liuyu from the Baocheng faction has met the True Lord. I wonder what the True Lord is doing?"

"I am a poor Taoist, Daoming. I was invited by Ye Zhenjun, the noble sect, to come here as a guest." Zhenjun Daoming replied gently.

Liang Liuyu was silent for a moment. After confirming that it was correct, he smiled and said, "Master Daoming, please follow me into the city."

True Lord Daoming took several of his disciples and walked into the doorway under the guidance of Liang Liuyu. At this time, Liang Liuyu said loudly: "Welcome True Lord Daoming!"

Hundreds of disciples on both sides raised the Gengjin Ritual Flying Sword with one hand and shouted: "Welcome to the True Lord Daoming!"

Obviously, except for the better materials, they were just ordinary ritual flying swords, but at this moment, these hundreds of flying swords simultaneously released dazzling sword light, and the sword energy in the air seemed to be stimulated, clanking, and the sword intent suddenly surged. It is connected with the true meaning of the sharp avenue in the cave of the Three Tribulations Heavenly Lord!

In front of True Lord Daoming, there seemed to be a scene of thousands of swords on both sides, emitting a severe cold light. This was the most solemn ceremony handed down from ancient times for the sword cultivator sect to welcome guests, the "Welcoming Ceremony of Ten Thousand Swords". The respect was unusual, but it was different from the ordinary " "Ten thousand swords greeting each other" is different, because it inspires the sharpness of the cave sky, and it makes Daoming Zhenjun feel as if sword energy is raging in his heart. Although it is not sad, it is extremely shocking, making people intuitively feel the Baocheng sect. of great strength.

Faced with the unmalicious pressure of the Three Tribulations Heavenly Lord's true meaning of the Dongtian Dao, Daoming Zhenjun could not directly phantom the illusory Dao, so he could only use his soul to calm his mind, quietly protect a few disciples who were a little shaken, and calmly Follow Liang Liuyu and quickly pass through the Changcheng Gate and enter the Baocheng Sect.

When they were far away, hundreds of disciples from the two factions put down their ritual flying swords and started laughing and talking.

"Did you see that even a person of Tianjun level would change his expression when faced with the 'Ten Thousand Swords Welcome Gift' from our Baocheng sect?" Fu Yuanxiao smiled at his junior brother who was participating in the gatekeeping task for the first time. Zhou Yong, Junior Sister Luo Yun said, there was a trace of pride, arrogance, confidence and sharpness in his expression that could not be concealed. This was due to his status as a disciple of a super sect and an illusory strength in strength.

Luo Yun nodded excitedly: "The faces of those Yangshen Masters just now turned pale." Seeing people who are usually aloof and enjoying immortality, they behave like this under the strength of their own sect, a little bit of super sect The disciple's arrogance and self-confidence grew stronger in his heart.

Although Zhou Yong didn't speak, looking at his expression, what he was thinking in his heart was probably the same as Luo Yun's.

…………

After a while, another group of disciples came to replace them.

"Senior Brother Fu, where are you waiting?" The charming Luo Yun wanted to make friends with the powerful senior brother in front of him, so he deliberately asked, while Zhou Yong nodded in agreement.

Fu Yuanxiao looked at them with some surprise: "You don't know? Today is the sermon of Patriarch Xuan that happens once in a hundred years. Brother, I finally found time to spare. If I hadn't achieved the golden elixir, I might only have heard one or two sermons in my life. Come back!"

"Really?! We just came out of seclusion, but we didn't know about this!" Zhou Yong and Luo Yun were shocked.

Fu Yuanxiao said in a funny voice: "Can such a big thing be deceived? Didn't you see that the faces of the fellow disciples who came to replace us just now looked like their dead parents? Okay, let's go with my brother. "

The three of them teamed up and soon arrived at the Chongxiao Tower where the preaching hall is located. It was already crowded with people, and I couldn't count how many disciples there were. Fortunately, the Chongxiao Tower was several hundred feet in diameter and was very wide, so it wasn't crowded at all. Let the three of them find a place to sit and wait.

Not long after, the sound of swords sounded, and all the disciples stood up: "Welcome to Patriarch Xuan for his sermon."

A blue-robed monk came out. He looked like he was only in his twenties, but his eyes were clear and deep. He looked like an innocent child and a wise old man. It was Xuan Jingfeng, the First Tribulation Heavenly Lord of the Baocheng Sect. His jaw After the leader signaled the disciples to sit down, he sat cross-legged on the Taoist platform. Without any lengthy preface, he directly started talking about Taoist techniques, swordsmanship, etc.

Fu Yuanxiao and others listened in a daze, unaware that time was passing. Suddenly, they heard Xuan Jingfeng say calmly: "This is the end of today's sermon." They were immediately disappointed.

However, Xuan Jingfeng added: "Although our Baocheng Sect's swordsmanship is powerful, there are countless magical and mysterious skills in the heavens and all the worlds and trillions of worlds. There are also many supreme swordsmanships. We must not be arrogant. As everyone knows, it is very possible that a monk whose level is lower than yours and whose background is not as good as yours can defeat you with his sword skills."

Fu Yuanxiao, Luo Yun and other disciples looked at each other, and they all saw in each other's eyes the meaning of "how is it possible", "completely unbelievable", etc. Their background and level were not as good as theirs, so it would be nothing to say that they could win with treasures. , but based on swordsmanship alone, what kind of joke is the founder kidding? !

Seeing the disciples whispering to each other, there was a little commotion and disbelief, Xuan Jingfeng said with a smile but not a smile: "Many of the disciples here must have heard of it before. When you were in Yu Yutian hundreds of years ago, you, Patriarch Shen, was taught by a The Heavenly Lord, who is not as good as her and whose realm is not as good as hers, defeated her with his sword skills.”

"Shi Xuan." Voices sounded one after another, containing a bit of fear. Over the past hundreds of years, the sect has kept telling this matter over and over again. Those with a little more seniority all started from the master, the ancestor, and even many who are now The deceased seniors had heard about it and still remembered this incident, which can be said to be passed down from generation to generation.

In the sect, Patriarch Shen, whose strength is second only to Patriarch Ren, who is famous for his challenges across ranks, and whose swordsmanship is unparalleled, was actually defeated by an ordinary heavenly king with swordsmanship who was not as good as her in terms of realm and background. How terrifying his strength must be, and how powerful his swordsmanship must be. If he survives one or two tribulations, wouldn't he be able to come directly to the door and destroy the Baocheng Sect?

At the beginning, most of the disciples were just amazed at Shi Xuan's strength. However, as the sect continued to remind them for hundreds of years, and as generations of disciples exaggerated and exaggerated, they gradually developed a feeling for Shi Xuan. The fear in my heart, every time I hear this name, the pride and arrogance in my heart will weaken a bit.

Xuan Jingfeng slowly stood up and said with a smile: "So, we sword cultivators must not be afraid, but must have the will and energy to cut through all difficulties, and we must not be arrogant, complacent, or full of arrogance. In other words, people You can’t be arrogant, but you can’t be arrogant. I hope you will remember what I said today.”

"Disciple, I obey." All the disciples stood up and greeted Xuan Jingfeng respectfully.

…………

In the main hall not far away, Ye Piaoling and Daoming Zhenjun, who were dressed in white, slender and casual, were chatting and listening to Xuan Jingfeng's sermon.

"Fellow Daoist Ye, I'm a little confused. Why do you keep mentioning Shi Xuan's defeat of Shen Zhenjun? Did he really defeat Shen Zhenjun?" Dao Mingzhenjun asked with some confusion and surprise.

Ye Piaoling smiled and said: "It has just been a hundred thousand years since our sect was established, and it has flourished more than ten thousand years after Patriarch Ren survived the second decline of heaven and man. Therefore, compared with those sects whose inheritance can last for millions of years, although They are both super sects, but their disciple training is very different. In addition, their own characteristics of sword cultivation make them all feel arrogant and think that the Baocheng sect is invincible in the world and that their own sect is superior to others. The cohesion of the sect is strong, but this kind of mentality is really unacceptable and is a big obstacle to my own practice. "

After listening to Ye Piaoling's words, True Lord Daoming nodded slightly, remembering the emotional changes of the Baocheng Sect disciples when they passed through the door just now.

"Eight hundred years ago, Yimo was indeed defeated by Shi Xuan in Yu Yutian, but there were many factors, such as being injured before, his strength being suppressed, Shi Xuan carrying a calamity of spiritual treasures and flying swords, etc., but in general Generally speaking, this son's swordsmanship is very powerful, which makes Yi Mo admire him a lot," Ye Piaoling continued.

After confirming this news, Daoming Zhenjun and the disciples behind him were extremely horrified. Shen Yimo's reputation in the world of Xiandu was only lower than that of Ren Yunzong, the founder of the Three Tribulations of Baocheng Sect. Especially in the past five or six thousand years, She was unparalleled in the limelight and a symbol of invincibility, but she was defeated by a heavenly king whose strength was lower than hers, relying on swordsmanship. Even if there were many other reasons, it was really hard to believe.

Ye Piaoling himself was a little unconvinced at the time, so he could understand Daoming Zhenjun's mood, and said directly: "This matter is too typical. After thinking about it, we felt that it met our needs, so we consulted Yimo for his opinion. It has been widely publicized in the sect, hoping to make the disciples sober and dispel their unreasonable arrogance. It seems that the effect is quite good. "

"The noble sect is really very considerate in cultivating disciples, which I admire very much." Zhenjun Daoming praised sincerely, "However, it seems that there are also some bad effects, such as Shi Xuan's unconscious, The fear hidden in my heart usually does not hinder my practice, but once I encounter Shi Xuan, it becomes the source of inner demons."

Ye Piaoling shook his head and smiled bitterly: "An overcorrection must be too much. We let it go, and word of mouth passed down for generations, which made this matter a lot of exaggeration, making the disciples fearful. However, the mental barriers in this area are still broken. It's easy, as long as Shi Xuan survives the first decline of heavenly beings and stabilizes his cultivation, Yi Mo will come to challenge him and defeat him with the same level of cultivation. At that time, the fear will naturally disappear. "

After a pause, he continued: "If Yimo survives the second decline of heavenly beings during this period, then Pindao will have to experience the "Zhou Tianxing Sword Fighting Technique". Haha, in fact, if the realm is not higher than him now , If you can't win with force, I'll have come to you for a fight." There was strong self-confidence in the laughter. Although he and Xuan Jingfeng were slightly inferior to Shen Yimo who had a breakthrough in swordsmanship, they wanted to defeat Shi. Xuan is quite confident. Of course, they will not be stupid enough to wait for Shi Xuan to reach the peak of his cultivation before challenging him.

"If such a day comes, I would like to observe and learn from you." Zhenjun Dao Ming is looking forward to this.

…………

"Senior Brother Fu, is Shi Xuan really that scary?" Luo Yun asked curiously, but she couldn't help but say the word Shi Xuan softly. Many of her ancestors were from the Baocheng sect, and they had been listening to it since she was a child. The Baocheng Sect has grown up with various legends, but the things about Shi Xuan are too exaggerated and unbelievable. They can be used to scare children to stop them from crying at night, so I want to hear what the real thing is.

Fu Yuanxiao didn't seem to care too much and said: "What the sect said openly was that he defeated Patriarch Shen with the strength of an ordinary heavenly king by relying on swordsmanship and the Flying Sword of a Tribulation Spirit. The process only took a few words." But there was also an imperceptible hint of fear in his tone.

"How powerful Patriarch Shen is, to be defeated by a heavenly king whose realm is lower than hers." Zhou Yong recalled that at the sect's 100,000th anniversary celebration that Wan Pai came to congratulate not long ago, Patriarch Shen used a flying sword to fight with thirty-three Eight sword masters of the same level and seventeen Taoist immortals with peerless swordsmanship sat and discussed swords. They defeated them one by one without a cup of tea.

With Zhou Yong's low strength, he only felt that he had a huge advantage. This made Patriarch Shen the object of admiration in the hearts of many disciples. They all felt about her power and asked, "How can Shi Xuan be able to defeat her?" Character?" Unknowingly, Zhou Yong said the last words in his mind, and his arrogance dissipated a lot.

Luo Yun chuckled softly and said: "Some say he has a green face and fangs, some say he has three heads and six arms, each holding a flying sword, and can cut down the sky and cover the ground. Some say he likes to eat human brains and has developed a filthy sword energy... "These are the stories she heard when she was scared by her elders in her childhood.

"Actually, I heard my master say that Shi Xuan practices the "Zhou Tian Xing Dou Sword Technique", a peerless sword technique that ranks among the top ten in all the worlds. It is better than our "Taiyi Light and Dark Cave True Sword Technique" Even better." Fu Yuanxiao showed off his knowledge, envious of Shi Xuan in his heart. If he could also obtain this level of swordsmanship, wouldn't he be able to use the Lingbao Flying Sword to cross levels? !

Phew, Luo Yun and Zhou Yong took a breath, so it was like that, but after understanding why Shi Xuan was powerful, they became even more afraid. The fear of the top ten in the world, even Fu Yuanxiao himself heard it at that time. , the same feeling.

"Okay, we have to guard the city gate in a few days. You should go back and rest early." Fu Yuanxiao said happily when he saw his junior brother and junior sister were shocked.

Luo Yun and Zhou Yong thought that they would have the opportunity to see the fear of those high-ranking people, so they hurriedly agreed, hoping to meet some real Yangshen people to come to their door, preferably with Tianjun!

…………

A few days later, Baocheng sent the huge city gate.

Hundreds of disciples were waiting quietly with ritual flying swords in their hands, but those who came to visit from time to time were all monks below the Yuan Shen level. They did not need to perform grand ceremonies, and even some low-level monks did not even need to perform rituals.

"Today is so boring." Luo Yun whispered to Yuan Xiao in a low voice as the sun passed noon.

Fu Yuanxiao shook his head and chuckled: "Junior sister Luo, how can you meet so many true kings and true men? They are all miraculous figures who never see their end. Unless you don't practice or travel, you will always If you stay here, you can see me once a year and a half."

"If I had known this, I would have applied to go out." Zhou Yong said with some disappointment.

"Hey, Junior Sister Luo and Junior Brother Zhou, seeing how disappointed you are, I think you miss that feeling very much, that's why it's so difficult to apply for the task of guarding the city gate." Fu Yuanxiao said proudly.

Before Luo Yun and Zhou Yong could reply, Liang Liuyu in front of the door said directly with his spiritual consciousness: "Everyone, be quiet, a True Lord is coming to the door." The True Lord did not hide it, so he was within the range covered by the power of the cave. , Liang Liuyu discovered its illusory and ethereal aura immediately.

Hearing this, Fu Yuanxiao, Zhou Yong, Luo Yun, and even most of the disciples perked up, straightened their backs again, and their anticipation was palpable.

…………

Shi Xuan was dazzled when he looked at the majestic and magnificent city among the white clouds. If it weren't for its simple shape, just because of its metallic texture, it would have made him feel as if he had seen the future city in previous science fiction movies.

Shi Xuan was not slow in escaping the light, and quickly flew to the gate of the huge city. He saw hundreds of disciples waiting in front of the gate, as well as several Yinshen Lords and Golden Pill Grandmasters. He couldn't help but admire the number of super sect disciples. .

Seeing a young Tianjun in plain white robes pressing the light escape button, Fu Yuanxiao and others suppressed their excitement and waited quietly. They wanted to wave the ritual flying sword in their hands immediately, while Liang Liuyu stepped forward and faced Zhu Shixuan bowed respectfully and said: "Liang Liuyu from Baocheng sent you to see the real king. I wonder what the real king is and why he is here?"

Shi Xuan said frankly: "Penglai Shi Xuan, I would like to see the noble sect Shen Yimo Shen Zhenjun. Please pass on the message."

The sharp sword energy surging in the city gate cave interferes with the distance. Unless they speak loudly, the hundreds of disciples behind cannot hear the conversation in front. Although they are looking forward to it, they also want to know who this true king is coming to visit. Grandmaster, Naihe could only hear the echo of sword energy and had to continue waiting.

"Penglai Shixuan? Yu Yutian Penglai Sect Shixuan Shi Zhenjun?!" After hearing this name, Liang Liuyu felt a burst of fear in his heart, and almost sent the signal of the enemy attack to the real person sitting at the center of the cave. Fortunately, he will Very strong, and tempered by a determined path, he suppressed his fear and spoke to confirm.

Shi Xuan felt Liang Liuyu's fear, and felt very strange in his heart. In the past few hundred years, he had only sent the Three Tribulation Heavenly Lords to Yun Zong from Baocheng, the First Tribulation Heavenly Lords Shen Yimo, Xuan Jingfeng, Ye Piaoling, and ordinary Heavenly Lords. Zhao Hengcheng inquired a lot about the news, and some outstanding real people also got the general idea, but he didn't know much about the monks below Yuanshen. He could only roughly deduce that it was because he injured Shen Yimo.

"The Baocheng sect is so vengeful? It has been hundreds of years, and even the Yinshen Lord has behaved like this?" Shi Xuan became wary. Of course, he answered Liang Liuyu's question directly: "It is Yu Yutian's Penglai sect. Shi Xuan, please send a message to Mr. Shen Zhen."

He almost gasped, with many thoughts in his mind, including fear, speculation, and doubt. He didn't know why Shi Xuan came to the door. But it was not Liang Liuyu's turn to make the decision in this matter. He quickly activated the contact Fu Zhuan, but he was in a panic and did not ask Shen Yimo for instructions. , but directly asked Ren Yunzong, the Three Tribulations Heavenly Lord of Baocheng Sect.

Ren Yunzong didn't expect Shi Xuan to come to the door at this time, and Tianji seemed to be deceived. He pondered for a moment and sighed softly: "Let him come in, tell him that Yi Mo is in retreat for a short time, and then take him to try the sword."

Try the sword? Liang Liuyu was shocked. It was a road specially prepared by the Baocheng Sect for opponents who had some grievances but did not want to fight to the death. It did not involve life or death. Once the person who blocked the way was successfully defeated, he would be a distinguished guest of the Baocheng Sect and the most popular one. Dear guests. Is the sect going to turn their feud into friendship with Shi Xuan?

However, he did not dare to question Ren Yunzong's order and said respectfully to Shi Xuan: "Shi Zhenjun, please come in with this junior. Grandmaster Shen is in retreat for a short time. Please go to the Sword Trial Pavilion and wait."

Shi Xuan knew what happened at the Sword Trial Pavilion and expected it, so he nodded slightly and said, "Please."

Liang Liuyu turned around to lead the way, and at the same time shouted loudly: "Welcome to the Penglai Sect Shi Xuan Shi Zhenjun!"

Shi Xuan followed, followed the two neat rows of disciples, and through the door, saw many disciples coming and going in the cave, and felt the true meaning of Fengrui.

Hundreds of people, including Fu Yuanxiao, Zhou Yong, and Luo Yun, who had been waiting for help for a long time, waved and raised the ritual swords in their hands, stimulating the connection contained in them, which not only highlighted the solemn and respectful meaning, but also gave this person a special feeling. The visiting Tianjun shows off the strength of the Baocheng Sect and appreciates his performance.

The sword light surged, the sharp energy sounded and manifested, and a state of ten thousand swords was about to appear. At the same time, they shouted loudly in unison: "Welcome to the Penglai Sect Shi Xuanshi..."

The sounds stopped together, jingling, and hundreds of ritual swords all fell to the ground. The crisp sounds continued one after another. Almost at the same time, the disciples who were flying swords in the cave near the door were also stunned, and turned their heads in horror. Come here, it's like a still picture.

Shi Xuan did not expect to encounter such a welcoming scene. He saw that only a few of the two rows of disciples could remain truly frightened, while the rest of their faces either tried to keep calm but were emotionally unstable, or were directly frightened. With a sense of fear, he looked at the nearby cave sky that seemed to be frozen, and suddenly felt like he was a super villain.
