Chapter 270 Sword Maniac, New List
Fang Wen, the true preacher of the Tao of Immortality, is number one on the list of people, and is known as the Sword Crazy.
This is Zhou Heng's impression of Fang Wen.
Fang Wen's description on the list of people is that he once saw the performance of ancient immortals and gods, and he understood the three moves of the immortal sword, which was extremely mysterious and unbeatable.
Its artistic conception is lofty, pointing directly to the realm of third-grade heaven and man.
In terms of performance, he did not show much success.
Apart from being better than the previous number one person on the list who will enter the Secret Sixth Stage, and the second person on everyone's list in the past six years, there is nothing else that stands out.
Even the so-called Three Moves Immortal Sword was only a literal description, and no one had ever actually seen him use it.
After learning the Zhuzi Sword Technique, Zhou Heng did not think that he would be weaker than him.
But now listening to the meaning of Yan Shou's words, this "sword crazy" Fang Wen seems to be extraordinary.
"He is indeed very special and extraordinary." Yan Shouyi said with a smile: "Fang Wen has the bones of a divine sword in his life, and his sword heart is made in heaven. He only practices swordsmanship and does not practice other methods.
"Speaking of which, I'm at two extremes from you, junior brother. You know a lot of martial arts and have a wide range of skills, but he only knows swordsmanship and has never even practiced Qing Gong or Internal Kung Fu."
"What?" Zhou Heng was stunned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "How did he reach the peak of the seventh rank without practicing internal skills?"
"Has anyone ever said that he is at the top of the seventh rank?" Yan Shouyi looked at Zhou Heng with a half-smile, and said, "Junior brother, if you think about it, even the description on the list of people never mentioned Fang Wen's name. Cultivation realm.”
"Could it be that...he found a different path and formed his own path?" Zhou Heng was really shocked and said with some uncertainty: "Isn't he going to the ninth level of immortality?"
If this is the case, then Fang Wen can no longer be described as a genius.
This is simply a peerless genius that is rare and has never been seen in ancient times. He is the founder of a dharma and can teach it for eternity!
"It's not as exaggerated as opening a new one." Yan Shou smiled, shook his head slightly, and said: "However, he is indeed not following the path of the ninth level of immortality.
"If we look at the judging rules of the ninth rank of Immortal God, he can only be considered the peak of the ninth rank now. However, although he has not practiced internal skills, he has developed a sword spirit through sword practice. He has not built an inner scene, but he has developed a sword soul. .
"Next, he only needs to use his sword soul to build a bridge to the outside world and interweave the sword energy with the legal principles, and then he can step onto the level of the secret sixth level. At that time, he will probably directly cross the stage of the true energy realm and directly enter the true power.
"It's just that after all, sword energy is different from internal energy, and sword soul is also different from internal scenery. The normal breakthrough method can be a reference for him, but he cannot copy it. How to do it specifically can only be studied and found by himself. "
"In this case, it should be regarded as a relatively special basic path?" Zhou Heng pondered. Although the shock in his heart was a little less, he still couldn't help but admire: "Such an amazing talent, I am somewhat looking forward to playing against him. ”
Although it is shocking to form a sect to reach the sixth level of secret, compared to forming a sect and opening up another path of cultivation, this seems to be less shocking.
At the same time, Zhou Heng also understood why Fang Wen, a man who dominated the rankings among his contemporaries, had not yet reached the Secret Sixth Level in the past five or six years.
Because he is looking for a way to break through on his own path.
"Do you want to fight him at the Chaoyang Cocktail Party?" Yan Shouyi chuckled and said, "Actually, there may not be a chance. After all, the Chaoyang Cocktail Party is a struggle between countries. More often than not, you should join forces.
"However, I can't say for sure. In the past, warriors from the same country would compete at the Chaoyang Reception. The specific situation still depends on the situation at the reception."
"So this Chaoyang Cocktail Party, there are people from the Luyang Zhou family and Taixuguan in the Southern Jin Dynasty. Who else will come?" Zhou Heng asked. This is his main opponent at the Chaoyang Cocktail Party. Naturally, he will come. Let’s ask about the situation first.
"This time, the Southern Jin Dynasty was a bit aggressive, and only three people came." Yan Shou looked to the south and said, "The Luyang Zhou family, Taixuguan, and the Southern Jin royal family each sent one person."
"There are ten of us here." Zhou Heng raised his brows slightly and chuckled: "How confident is this?"
"The Southern Jin Dynasty seems to be extremely confident, thinking that these three people are already unique in the world under the Secret Sixth Grade." Yan Shouyi smiled and said: "They don't take the younger generation of Daqi seriously at all. ”
"Either the people in the Southern Jin Dynasty have lost their minds, or the strength of these three people is really unbelievable." Zhou Heng pondered for a moment and nodded: "Compared to this, I think the latter is more likely. Bigger.”
"Well, when I was in the Western Wilderness, I also heard a few heavenly beings from the Southern Jin Dynasty mention it." Yan Shouyi nodded lightly and said, "These three people are indeed unique among the younger generation of the Southern Jin Dynasty. .
"Except for these three people, the strongest among the others couldn't withstand a single move in front of them. There is no comparison at all. This is probably why Nan Jin only brought these three people here."
"This really interests me." Zhou Heng laughed and said, "I would like to see what skills and strengths these three people have."
"Junior brother, you have to hurry up and get there as soon as possible." Yan Shouyi smiled and said, "Those two girls, Jiang Jian and Zhen Zhen, have already passed away long ago."
"Ah?" Zhou Heng was stunned when he heard this and asked doubtfully: "Senior brother, aren't you going?"
"What did I do? I just sent out invitations." Yan Shouyi shook his head and then smiled: "The younger generation is competing for things, so what did I do?
"It's not that I'm bragging. If I had gone over, this Chaoyang Wine Party wouldn't have to be held at all."
As for the reason, Zhou Heng knew it even though he didn't say it.
If Yan Shouyi, the world's most respected and invincible Tianren, was there, no matter what advantages the younger generation of Southern Jin had achieved, they would pale in comparison with Yan Shouyi.
There was no need to continue the Chaoyang cocktail party.
——Although the Da Qi Tianbang only counted the great Tianren in Da Qi, it did not mean that Yan Shouyi, the world's number one, was limited to Da Qi.
Three hundred years ago, before Yan Shouyi succeeded to the position of the head of Chunyang Palace, he traveled alone around the world, tested his sword in all directions, and only wanted to be defeated.
From the desert in the north to the Desolate God Mountain in the south, the Northern Zhou and Da Qi in between, no matter the righteous or evil, whether it was human, demon, devil, or the so-called descendants of gods and demons, none of them could match him.
This was truly invincible.
…
Zhou Heng did not pass through Ziwei Palace again when he went to Zhongzhou.
After all, since he had already reached the Golden Summit of Yuxu Peak, of course he had to take Yan Shouyi's "ride" again.
The celestial being waved his sleeves, and Zhou Heng immediately felt the light and shadow around him changing rapidly. This was a fast movement.
Finally, as his legs sank and he felt grounded, he finally saw clearly what was going on around him.
In front of him stood a huge stone tablet with the words "Zhongzhou Boundary" written on it.
This was the stone tablet that divided the boundary between Zhongzhou and the other states.
As long as he crossed here, he would enter the territory of Zhongzhou and continue to go to the Imperial City.
It was so fast.
The celestial being was really incredibly powerful. Even sending people was as fast as ever. In just a moment, he crossed more than one million miles and sent himself to Zhongzhou.
"Although I haven't really reached the Imperial City yet, it's not far away. I remember that there is an entrance to the Ziwei Palace near the border of Zhongzhou, which just came in handy."
Zhou Heng thought to himself, and then summoned the red horse, equipped it with the red lotus harness, rode on it, and rushed to the nearest entrance to the Ziwei Palace.
...
February 1st.
Heavy snow in the imperial city.
This is the third day since Cheng Jiangjian and Zhu Zhenzhen came to the imperial city of Zhongzhou.
Since they all came with royal invitations and are all the true disciples of Chunyang Palace, both accommodation and food are the best arrangements in the imperial city.
Even when they travel, there are maids accompanying them, holding brocade robes and mink furs for them to use.
However, Cheng Jiangjian and Zhu Zhenzhen have never used these.
They came out early today.
Both of them wore Taoist robes from Chunyang Palace and red cloaks brought from Taihua Mountain. They walked on the spacious Shenwu Street and frequently attracted the attention of pedestrians around them.
They are all so beautiful.
Zhu Zhenzhen is fine. She is only fourteen years old this year and is still a little girl. Although her appearance is very outstanding and her facial features are quite delicate, she is still young after all, and usually only makes people feel cute and beautiful.
Cheng Jiangjian is different. She is 19 years old and has been in the demon world for more than two years. She is almost 21 years old. Her already beautiful appearance has become even more attractive.
In addition, she was once revered as the empress in the demon world, commanding the world and being invincible. There is a bit of heroism between her eyebrows, which is even more charming.
Such a beauty is rare in the world. Not to mention ordinary people in the imperial city, even princes and nobles will be stunned when they see her.
Of course, some people with status also know her identity and will not rashly do anything out of line.
Cheng Jiangjian, the third on this year's list, is known as the "Yuxiao Tianshangxian", the true disciple of the Taihua Mountain Chunyang Palace, and the direct disciple of Qi Rui, the fourth-grade top grandmaster of the Yuqiong Peak.
With such an identity, even ordinary princes and nobles can't afford to offend.
Therefore, Cheng Jiangjian and Zhu Zhenzhen have lived a quiet life these days, and no one has disturbed them.
They went out early today just to go to the gate of Shenwu Division to see the new Human Ranking.
"Senior Sister Cheng, do you think there will be any changes in the top ten of the Human Ranking this time?" Zhu Zhenzhen still had the mentality of a child, holding a candied haws in her hand and licking it while talking.
"There shouldn't be any big changes." Cheng Jiangjian also had a string of candied haws in her hand, but she didn't speak until she finished eating one. "Recently, I don't seem to have heard of any battles in the top ten of the Human Ranking. Although Feng Shao'e challenged Junior Master, she was already eleventh at the time and lost again, so it shouldn't affect the ranking."
"But when I was buying wine outside yesterday, I heard someone say something." Zhu Zhenzhen licked the sugar on the candied haws and lowered her voice: "The Zhou Yin from Nanjin has defeated Cui Guanlan. I wonder if he will be on the list."
"Zhou Yin challenged Cui Guanlan himself?" Cheng Jiangjian frowned slightly when he heard this. Cui Guanlan was also one of the ten people from Daqi who attended the Chaoyang Cocktail Party this time.
Now the Chaoyang cocktail party has failed before it even started. If what Zhu Zhenzhen said is true, it really undermines the morale.
However... Cheng Jiangjian suddenly glared, and her white hand fell, pinching one of Zhu Zhenzhen's ears, and asked in a deep voice: "Zhenzhen, what did you just say, you went out to buy wine yesterday? You are only fourteen years old, do you understand?"
"Ah?" Zhu Zhenzhen realized that she had just been exposed, and hurriedly begged for mercy, "I, I, I, I, I just bought a little bit, just a little bit, Senior Sister, don't be angry, and don't tell Master."
Before going out this time, You Ziheng repeatedly told Cheng Jiangjian to keep an eye on Zhu Zhenzhen and not to catch this little girl and drink secretly.
Before, Cheng Jiangjian had been keeping a close eye on Zhu Zhenzhen, leaving her no chance.
But yesterday, Cheng Jiangjian suddenly had some insights into a sword technique, and temporarily closed the door to meditate for two hours. Unexpectedly, Zhu Zhenzhen took this opportunity to secretly go out to buy wine.
"No, I must tell Master You." Cheng Jiangjian was upright and would not give in no matter how Zhu Zhenzhen begged for mercy or acted cute. "You are only a little older, but you are still drinking like this. What if you become like Master You in the future?"
"I, I am not young anymore!" Zhu Zhenzhen puffed out her small chest, then her big eyes turned and she said with a smile: "Senior sister, I will treat you to sweet-scented osmanthus cake later, how about it?"
"Okay." Cheng Jiangjian nodded with satisfaction, let go of Zhu Zhenzhen, and said with a smile: "And white jade soft candy."
"Deal!" Zhu Zhenzhen nodded, thinking that she had bribed Cheng Jiangjian, and was immediately full of joy. She pointed to the front and said: "Senior sister, look, there are so many people in front, surrounding a notice board, it should be the place where the three lists of heaven, earth and man are posted."
"Well, go and take a look." Cheng Jiangjian nodded gently.
The two walked over, and before they had time to see the changes in the list, they heard people talking about it.
"There are some big changes in the top ten of the human list. Zhou Yin is so powerful."
"This Zhou Yin is actually from the southern Jin Dynasty. He is so powerful that he defeated the 'Sword of the Sea' as soon as he showed up."
"He became famous in one battle and directly ranked fifth on the human list. This is a record, and he is only nineteen years old."
"You don't know, this Zhou Yin is not an ordinary person. The Southern Jin Dynasty does not have a human list, but it has a similar Dragon and Tiger list. He is the second on the Dragon and Tiger list."
"Zhou Yin was born in the Luyang Zhou family, and his foundation is deeper than the Fengzhou Cui family where the 'Sword of the Sea' Cui Guanlan is."
"Alas, our people in the Great Qi Dynasty were defeated by the people in the Southern Jin Dynasty. It's a shame."
Hearing these discussions, Cheng Jiangjian and Zhu Zhenzhen looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes. The rumor they talked about before was actually true.
Cui Guanlan had really been defeated by Zhou Yin. The two of them had already arrived in the imperial city and had fought in secret.
This Zhou Yin is said to be the reincarnation of a god. He is indeed extraordinary and his strength should not be underestimated.
However, what is the specific situation?
The two tried to move forward to see the specific description on the human list.
At this time, the topic of discussion in front of the people changed again.
"However, the one who has changed the most this time is still another Zhou."
"Yes, Zhou Heng, too powerful, I have some doubts that this record is fake."
"It's really outrageous, directly ranked second on the human list."
"The most outrageous thing is the record. Look, if it wasn't written on the human list and issued by the Divine Martial Department, I wouldn't dare to believe it."
Cheng Jiangjian and Zhu Zhenzhen were stunned when they heard the words, and they couldn't help but wonder.
Why is there a junior uncle?
Especially Cheng Jiangjian.
It wasn't long since she and Zhou Heng parted.
What did Zhou Heng do again?
He actually ranked second on the human list!
