Before long, almost all of Kunlun knew the great name of Wei Dongliu, the new leader of the Demonic Cult's Fansheng Dao.
Not only that, everyone was enthusiastically discussing and speculating about the strength level of this Wei Dongliu, such as whether he was in the Nascent Soul Realm or the Immortal Realm... or if he was an immortal, would he be a Golden Immortal or a Daluo Golden Immortal.
After all, when Wei Dongliu unified Mount Wutai, he was said to have displayed very advanced magic skills in the process of destroying countless unorthodox sects and large and small Buddhist temples.
There are monks who swore that when Wei Dongliu destroyed the Buddhist temple, there were gusts of cold wind and layers of evil clouds within a radius of ten thousand miles. Gods and ghosts were afraid and the sun and moon lost their light. He was simply an old demon and an extremely ferocious monster.
There were also cultivators who analyzed seriously that Wei Dongliu had been hiding his strength and no one had noticed his existence in the past. Now he suddenly appeared in the world with a fierce reputation, and there must be a huge conspiracy behind it.
There are even Kunlun monks who firmly claim that this is a big game played by Hell, with the world as the chessboard and all living beings as chess pieces. Wei Dongliu is the most critical general on the chessboard, pointing his sword at the Three Pure Ones of the Orthodox Church and turning the world into purgatory.
In response to these speculations, Qiu Changtian could only say that as long as everyone is happy.
He really wanted to log into Wei Dongliu's account to see what was going on.
However, there is a problem here:
When was the Wanxiangjuexian Sword obtained?
Obviously, according to the law of timeline, after reading Wei Dongliu's save file, he must have possessed the Wanxiangjuexian Sword at some point.
It would be fine if Wei Dongliu obtained this sword, but if only Ling Yunpo, Luo Yan or even Long Long could obtain it, then in order to ensure the closed loop of history, the Avenue of Time would suddenly do something serious when he was playing as Wei Dongliu, forcing him to switch to the corresponding character save file and obtain the Wanxiang Juexian Sword as recorded in history.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, of course you should switch to other characters first to see if you can get this sword.
If you can get it successfully, you can naturally read Wei Dongliu calmly - instead of being forced by the Avenue of Time.
"A Jing." Qiu Changtian ordered, "Load the Lingyun Po file."
"Okay." Kunlun Mirror began to cast the spell.
[Point 2: Shushan Shangqing Sect, Qingluo Peak. ]
[Character identity: Ling Yunpo. ]
[The Mirror Flower and Water Moon template is overwritten, and time travel is in progress. 】
Not long after arriving at Shushan, Ling Yunpo learned another piece of bad news.
As the Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, the Shushan executives plan to hold a Dragon Boat Festival competition to celebrate the festival.
What kind of brain circuit would come up with the idea of celebrating a festival by causing a river of blood to flow inside the sect? Ling Yunpo couldn't think of it anyway.
In short, since he was promoted to Jindan Zhenren, the number of times Lin Duanshan and others came to visit him has obviously decreased a lot.
Ling Yunpo certainly understood their mentality: they were obviously senior brothers and sisters, but the junior brother formed the elixir first and was promoted to a real person. I should call him junior brother, sorry, I should call him "Real Person Qingheng"... He was a generation younger for no reason, which made people feel even more awkward.
It would be better to stay in the peak and practice hard.
Without Lin Duanshan and others, most of Qingluo Peak’s sources of information were cut off.
Ling Yunpo didn't have any better solution. He could only take time out from his daily sparring time to go out and visit other Shushan disciples and find out some information through chatting.
On this day, he received an invitation from Sima Changyan to attend a sword meeting.
The so-called "sword meeting", corresponding to the "poetry meeting" of literati, is a form of private gathering of the sword immortals of Mount Shu.
Sword competitions are divided into literary competitions and martial competitions. Literary competitions are for discussing feelings about swordsmanship. For example, in the past, the ancestor of the Guan family would preach at the Guan family and then answer questions from the attendees. This was a typical literary competition.
Martial arts competitions are for everyone to spar with each other, which is relatively more violent, but overall they are restrained and not like a life-and-death duel with a sword master, where swords are broken at every turn, and the opponent's cultivation is stagnant and he vomits blood.
It is said that the sword competition held by Sima Changyan this time invited many senior brothers and sisters in the Jindan realm, so it was an out-and-out literary competition - after all, with his cultivation level in the foundation-building realm, he was not qualified to host a martial arts competition.
Ling Yunpo had just arrived at the venue when he heard several sword-carrying brothers drinking and sighing and chatting:
"Why is there another competition during the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"I finally formed the golden elixir, and I thought I could rest for a few decades, but I didn't expect that person to follow me again!"
"I heard that after Senior Brother Yu learned that the Grass-Chopping Sword Immortal had formed a golden elixir, he was busy going out for training. He only revealed the truth after being caught by Master. It turned out that he had an old grudge against the Grass-Chopping Sword Immortal. Now that the Grass-Chopping Sword Immortal has formed a golden elixir, and it is of the second grade, he is afraid that the other party will take advantage of this Dragon Boat Festival competition to beat him to death!"
"Hey, but I heard that this Dragon Boat Festival competition is not an ordinary one-on-one duel, but..."
Ling Yunpo just heard the word "but" when someone interrupted and said:
"Hush, Ling Poyun is here, don't mention it."
The sword-carrying brothers all sat upright and drank calmly. Ling Yunpo was so angry that he could only force himself to calm down.
You're talking halfway, and then you stop talking when you see me. What does that mean?
Even if you are afraid of me, you should at least respectfully address me by my Taoist name “Zhenren Qingheng”. What’s the point of calling me Ling Poyun?
It’s bad enough that you call me by my name, but you even pronounced my name backwards. I think you are tired of living!
He entered the venue with a blank expression and a gloomy face, and the chatter around him quieted down. Everyone stopped talking at the same time and just drank to cover up the embarrassment on their faces and the guilt inside.
Sima Changyan, who was presiding over the sword meeting, also had a headache.
Of course he knew that An Zhisu had formed a second-grade golden elixir, so that now almost every Golden Elixir Master in Mount Shu was in danger... Well, it was a bit of an exaggeration to say that everyone was in danger, mainly because the new Golden Elixir Masters at the God-Cunning Stage all had a strong sense of crisis.
As for the Root-Seeking Stage and the Mysterious Stage, due to the generation gap between them and An Zhisu, they had never fought against each other and did not know how terrifying the Grass-Mowing Sword Immortal was, so they did not take her seriously and only had some negative impressions of her.
However, Sima Changyan did not know those older senior brothers and sisters.
Almost all the Jindan Zhenren who were familiar with him had been promoted from the Foundation Establishment Stage in the past hundred years, and they had not yet developed the special superiority of elders over the Foundation Establishment Stage disciples.
Therefore, when they saw Ling Yunpo walking into the venue, everyone immediately thought of him as the junior brother of the Second-Rank Golden Core Sword Immortal, so that the atmosphere around them quickly became cold, as if they had suddenly jumped from the dog days of summer to December, making people completely unmotivated to chat.
Ling Yunpo looked around and nodded to Sima Changyan.
Sima Changyan was a man of great talent after all, so he quickly picked up his wine glass and said with a smile:
"Oh, Junior Brother Ling is finally here... No, I should call you 'Master Qingheng', and congratulate you on successfully forming your elixir, hahahaha!"
"You're welcome. It was just luck." Ling Yunpo also picked up the wine glass and accepted his toast.
Seeing that Ling Yunpo's attitude was pretty good and he was not arrogant because his senior sister was a second-grade golden elixir, nor was he furious because Sima Changyan called him "Junior Brother Ling", everyone breathed a sigh of relief and started chatting in low voices again.
"By the way." Ling Yunpo thought that Sima Changyan was also well-informed, so he asked tentatively, "Any news about the Dragon Boat Festival competition this time?"
"That's right." Sima Changyan also wanted to make friends with him, so he whispered, "I heard that in this competition, the Foundation Establishment Realm disciples will still compete with each other within the sect, while the Golden Core Realm disciples will organize themselves to go west to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to kill the foreign monks of the Shura Dao, and the competition will be counted according to the number of heads they kill."
"Oh?" Ling Yunpo nodded. "Why would they go to war with Shura Dao for no reason?"
"Who knows?" Sima Changyan sneered and said, "A few days ago, Shura Dao went crazy for some reason and sent people to kill my Shushan disciples everywhere near Sichuan and Shu. They also said that my Shushan disciples had stolen their sect's treasures."
"I think the higher-ups are also unhappy about this, so they plan to launch a counterattack against Shura Dao and severely destroy their fighting spirit."
It turned out that something was lost... Ling Yunpo suddenly realized.
Alas, I don't know who was careless and picked up Shura Dao's blood knife by mistake, which led to such a conflict between the two factions. He has done so many bad things!
