Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Flying close to the ground with a sword?!
"I'll give it to you, and I won't take it back." After a while, Huo Xuexiang said calmly, "Who did you fight with?"
Still seeking the answer: "I."
Huo Xuexiang: “……?”
Qiusuo continued to describe the details, even gesturing at the collar and saying, "Young Master, ripping open your clothes like this..."
"Ahhhh no!" Bai Lu pulled Qiusuo's clothes back, "No! I met a weapon spirit at Kaiyang Peak, the one that Liang Mangu and I kicked three times during the entry trial. He secretly teleported to our Qiusuo and taunted me, so I beat him up."
That doesn't sound so bad anymore.
But Huo Xuexiang was a little skeptical about the beating Bai Lu mentioned, "Can you beat him?"
Bai Lu had already made up a story and said calmly, "Master, you know, I found that sometimes when I asked Qiusuo some questions, he would get stuck."
Huo Xuexiang: “Yeah.” He knew this, having encountered it several times.
"He was using Qiusuo's body, so I took advantage of this characteristic and took the opportunity to beat him. But later I learned that his life experience was also very pitiful, so I forgave him!" Bai Lu raised her chin to show that she was very generous.
"This weapon spirit went against nature halfway through its refining process, and has been trying to find a master. You'd better be careful." Huo Xuexiang thought about it and said, "You are quick-witted." He was able to think of a way to deal with it and did not suffer any loss.
Bai Lu nodded: "Yeah, the sect leader also said that it's rare to see someone as extraordinary as me."
Huo Xuexiang was speechless for a moment, then slowly nodded.
In that case, he had nothing to worry about, and he was just overthinking it.
Huo Xuexiang turned and left, leaving only one sentence: "...If you can't beat me in the future, call me your master."
"Okay, Master!"
…
Meng Caiqing went back and worked hard. Within a month, he successfully established his foundation and became the second new disciple to establish his foundation after Liang Mangu.
After that, people made breakthroughs one after another.
Since the reunion, on every break, classmates who have nothing to do would get together and chat, either in the cafeteria or the library. Ning Yanhu said that they seemed to have a particularly close relationship (there were also a lot of weirdos).
"Brother Bai, you haven't established your foundation yet, so aren't you in a hurry at all?" Liang Mangu said.
Even if Bai Lu breaks through now, she won't be able to rank in the top. Liang Mangu persuaded her, "My golden seal has the effect of calming the mind and concentrating the energy. Why don't you try to practice with it? Or, why don't you come to our peak and listen to a few classes directly..."
It can't be that there has been no progress.
The news has spread throughout the sect now that Sword Master is a genius. He learned the skills on his own and taught according to his own ideas, which was actually a bit biased.
For example, Bai Lu, who was taught, is a very good fighter and can even beat a puppet at the Foundation Establishment stage, but he can't always stop improving his realm, as he hasn't established the Foundation yet.
"It's almost there, more haste makes waste." Bai Lu thought to herself, she actually used a classic quote, so cool.
Recently, he has been able to read through the basic mental methods and has also mastered the Frost Wheel Nine Body Technique, and he can mobilize more and more spiritual power.
What's more, in his spare time, Bai Lu is still learning how spiritual energy works and communicating with local elements, which should further unleash his magical prowess.
As for going to other places to attend classes? Bai Lu completely ignored it.
Is there any teacher in the world who is more patient than his mentor!
"I don't care about you anymore. Don't be jealous. I'm busy practicing sword flying." Liang Mangu was a little proud. After successfully building the foundation, he could also learn some small tricks and pass on the skills of his own sect.
Liang Mangu also made his own sword. Although it had some flaws and there were a few gaps on the sword, it didn't matter. He was using it himself and was used to it.
Among all the magical instruments refined by weapon cultivators, swords are probably the most numerous. After all, swords are the king of all weapons and they sell well. Every weapon cultivator has refined hundreds of swords.
All the students who successfully built their foundation could hardly wait to start practicing immortal arts.
You can seek advice from your teachers in the school, and some people choose to borrow books from the library, hoping to learn something different.
Some students chose spells like scattering beans to create soldiers and gathering beasts, which are all relatively practical. For example, Junior Brother Wang who chose "Gathering Beasts" is from Yaoguang Peak. He said proudly, "After learning how to gather beasts, I no longer have to chase beasts all over the mountain. I can comb their fur whenever I want and clean their poop whenever I want."
"..." Bai Lu didn't think it was something to be proud of. Her junior brother's mental state was worrying.
"What did Junior Sister Cai Qing learn?"
"Well... I haven't learned it very well yet. I went to the library to find the magic formulas myself." Meng Caiqing said.
"Library? I heard that something strange happened in the library. Have you seen it?" someone asked.
Bai Lu thought, is it the library again? He also met the spirit there last time. Your library is such a weird place. Fortunately, my level of classical Chinese is low and I rarely go there.
"Yes, but it's okay. Xuanshan Immortal Sect has been around for so long, and there must be some legends on every peak. It won't affect my study." Meng Caiqing said, and simply demonstrated it to them. She pinched her fingers and closed her eyes, and said in a thunderous voice, "Escape! Void! Transform! Mountain!"
I saw black smoke billowing out from under Meng Caiqing's feet, just like exhaust gas, which choked Bai Lu and made her cough a few times.
The figure disappeared in the black smoke. A moment later, Meng Caiqing came in from the door. His voice appeared earlier than the figure, "This is what I learned, the Earth Movement Technique."
Practicing earth escape, there are thousands of earth networks. This earth movement follows the earth networks and folds them up to reach a distance of thousands of miles in an instant.
"Whose earth-walking technique is this black smoke billowing... Why does it look so much like the resentment you feel at work?"
"Senior Sister, don't use it at dinner parties next time, ahem..."
"Don't close the door, let some fresh air in." Liang Mangu covered his lips and said, "Why don't you learn the art of flying swords like me? Otherwise, you can ride on clouds like Senior Sister. It would be so lonely in the earth. Besides, Xuanshan Immortal Sect has thousands of mountains and valleys. You can walk around down there. Won't you get lost?"
This really puzzled Bai Lu. Is this some kind of Eastern philosophy that requires one to be low-key and moderate?
Meng Caiqing smiled dryly: "Don't mention it. One time when I popped my head out, I found it was the alchemy room, and my eyebrows were all pulled off." She reached out to wipe them, and it turned out that her eyebrows were all drawn.
“…”
"I'm lucky that I only lost my eyebrows. What is that place..."
"But I just want to be a little more autistic." Meng Caiqing said resentfully, "Don't you know that at least one-third of the work was done by people who caught me while I was doing other work?"
It can be said to be endless.
Well... that was quite miserable. Everyone looked at her with sympathy. The higher Meng Caiqing's cultivation level, the deeper her resentment.
"That's a pity. Look at Senior Sister's cloud-riding technique. It's very much like the immortal I imagined when I was a child." Liang Mangu pinched the sword formula, "Of course, I also look like an immortal, a sword immortal!"
Hehe, he also became a sword immortal before Bai Lu, the sword cultivator.
He stepped on the flying sword, and it really flew up as he pinched the incantation, and flew out of the door. If you want to refine a good sword, you have to know how to control the sword. Most weapon cultivators know a little bit of this, and they can use it.
"Senior Brother Liang is so awesome!" The classmates came out to cheer him up. With the cheers, Liang Mangu flew higher and higher, with the wind whistling in his ears. The Xuanshan Immortal Sect had a great feng shui, so how could the young man not be excited? He felt that the world was in his hands.
Liang Mangu circled the top of the mountain twice in front of them, and after coming down, he put away his sword in the face of envious eyes: "Isn't it amazing?"
"Hey, let me try, let me try." Bai Lu looked at the strange and felt itchy. He was the only one here who had not practiced magic. He didn't envy others when he saw others demonstrating it just now, and it didn't feel strange either.
But as for sword-flying, he thought that if he could learn it, he could give his master a surprise.
"Although I haven't built the foundation yet, this only requires spiritual power to activate it, right?" Bai Lu said. He still had some spiritual power, and the more he absorbed, the more he had.
"That's right, but I've never heard of anyone successfully flying a sword before building a foundation." Meng Caiqing hesitated, "But I heard that when the Sword Master first started practicing, he could fly a sword to hurt people. I think it's the same principle."
"My master can do it, so I should be able to do it too. This is called heredity." Bai Lu reasoned and showed the gift she received, "See? This is the sword tassel my master gave me."
Ding Douhua was surprised and asked, "The sword tassel can resist the wind?"
"That's not possible," Bai Lu said, "My master used it before, it's quite auspicious."
Ding Douhua: “…”
Liang Mangu was facing a great enemy. Last time he made a big splash in the small competition, Bai Lu soon beat the wooden puppet, achieving the reputation of the first battle of Jian Zun's disciple who crossed the border and beat the enemy.
"Then you, try it." Liang Mangu stared at him and said, "If you have any secrets, you must teach them to me, don't keep them to yourself!"
Bai Lu said awkwardly: "I really can't give you the broom."
"???" What are you talking about? Liang Mangu said angrily, "If you don't want to teach me, then don't be so competitive as a sword cultivator. I am a weapon cultivator..."
"Stop talking, stop talking. We want to see the Sword Master's first disciple flying a sword!" The others all shouted, "Brother Bai, you can penetrate the sword with spiritual energy."
Bai Lu took off the Snow Feather Sword that Huo Xue had given him when he entered the sect. It had been hanging on his body like a decoration, and now he put it on the ground.
He imitated Liang Mangu's hand gestures, trying to mobilize the abundant spiritual energy in his body, and the sword seemed to move.
"See? It's moving, it's moving." Bai Lu said happily.
Everyone stared, but no one could see...
Bai Lu stepped onto the flying sword, closed her eyes and tried her best to squeeze out spiritual energy, "Rise! I fly!"
The sword energy soars into the sky, breaking through the wind!
Today, Bai Lu was wearing a dark green shirt, which was rare. The silver ornaments in her hair and around her waist reflected cold light. When she closed her eyes and had a cold face, she looked like a sword immortal descended to the world.
With a whoosh, Bai Lu's flying sword really moved——
"Oh my God, I saw it, it really moved!" The students were excited.
Could it be that the Sword Master lineage was born to break the rules? They can actually control the flying sword at the level of Qi Refining. They are geniuses who are born with the unity of man and sword.
They stared at Bai Lu, holding their breath.
Bai Lu did not disappoint. After the flying sword moved obviously on the spot, he concentrated his mind to control it, and the flying sword flew a big circle on the top of the mountain according to his wishes!
However, the flying sword was very close to the ground, only about a finger's height away.
If you don't look carefully, you might think it's sliding...
Bai Lu: “Huh?”
His green eyes opened wide, and his demeanor as a cold-faced swordsman was broken.
Liang Mangu was stunned.
All the students were also dumbfounded.
"...Flying close to the ground with the sword?!"
Haha. Bai Lu came down from the flying sword and said nonchalantly, "Does anyone want some coffee? I'll make some for everyone."
"Thank you, Senior Brother. A cappuccino with sugar."
…
Bai Lu held coffee in his left hand and a mung bean cake brought by other students in his right hand. He stood in the mountains and looked out. The view here was very good. Ever since Huo Xuexiang took Bai Lu to see the mountains, he liked to observe them when he had nothing to do. If someone asked him, he would imitate Huo Xuexiang and put one hand behind his back, and then say look at the world first and then the sky. He didn't know what it meant, but the other person would often show admiration...
From here, you can see the senior brothers from the Dan Ding Department running naked in the distance; from close up, you can see a ghost-like figure floating by, oh, it's Meng Caiqing; on the right, the apricot blossoms on Tianji Peak are blooming, tree by tree...
Is there any poem about apricot blossoms? Bai Lu thought for a moment, but couldn't think of anything. She just praised, "Yeah, it's beautiful! Speaking of which, the plum blossoms at Dianmei Peak have never bloomed."
Standing on Dianmei Peak, you can't feel other mountains, but they are obvious when looking from other mountains.
Xuanshan Immortal Sect is a Feng Shui treasure land, with exotic flowers and plants on each peak competing for beauty. Compared with other peaks, the top of Dianmei Peak is really lacking in color, with only the dark sword intent.
"It is said that the sword plums have not bloomed for a long time." Speaking of this, Liang Mangu said stealthily, "Some people say that the Sword Master did not voluntarily not ascend, but was unable to ascend. You also know that Juntian Sword Master's eyesight was damaged when he killed evil spirits, and his fate as an immortal was also damaged. I feel that he is in a depressed mood, so the sword plums have not bloomed."
"Nonsense." Bai Lu retorted immediately.
"I also heard that. That's what people say. It doesn't affect the Sword Master's power. Besides, no matter what the reason is, you joined Dianmei Peak because you didn't care..." Liang Mangu said in a rambling manner.
Although Huo Xuexiang never said it, Bai Lu felt that she could still tell whether a person she lived with day and night was depressed.
Even though he is like this, Master has never felt depressed because of him. His emotions are so stable!
Not only am I not melancholy, but I am also not as cold as others say.
“But you are right. Since my master is building a house on Dianmei Peak, he should like plum blossoms. Even if he is in a bad mood, it is because the plum blossoms are not in bloom.” Bai Lu turned it upside down and arranged the factors herself.
Liang Mangu spread his hands, he didn't know either.
Bai Lu thought for a moment and said, "I really need to find out. Let's go to the library to look for information!"
"Uh, Brother Bai, are you really not going to continue trying to build your foundation?" He was flying close to the ground just now, so normally he should have been greatly stimulated. What if he was stimulated to build his foundation?
"This is not a conflict. Can't I explore the truth and build my foundation at the same time?" Bai Lu was not bothered by the difficulty of flying the sword. When he flew into the sky, Liang Mangu didn't even know how to roll the dice... He just clasped his hands together and begged, "I'm going to Kaiyang Peak now. Can you come with me? I'm afraid something strange will happen in the library again!"
Everyone looks at me, I look at you, so just follow along. You can only dote on your own senior brother.
Meng Caiqing scratched his head and whispered, "I don't think you are timid."
Bai Lu remained calm: "Okay, actually I'm afraid of words I don't recognize..."
…
Bai Lu rushed to Kaiyang Peak, followed the procedures, swiped the campus card, and entered the library.
A figure passed by in the hall. At first glance, I thought it was Meng Caiqing, but upon closer inspection, it was Ning Yanhu. He greeted her, "Senior Sister."
As soon as Ning Yanhu saw him, he asked, "I heard you can glide on a sword?"
Bai Lu: "...Good afternoon to you too."
Ning Yanhu exclaimed in amazement: "Show me a performance. I've seen many flying swords, but this is the first time I've seen one flying close to the ground. Let me see how smooth it is."
Bai Lu was so angry that she looked at her senior sister with hostility for five seconds: "I didn't glide! I just flew lower! And how did you know, senior sister?"
"You are the disciple of the Sword Master. You are flying a sword in public. Do you think no one else noticed?" Ning Yanhu said. Uncle Huo is a master of swordsmanship. Of course, people would talk about his disciple using a sword. It would only take an instant for her to hear it.
You're gossiping about me again! The good thing about you immortal cultivators is that you can spread gossip faster than ordinary people, right?
I wanted to give Master a surprise, but now Master is going to be frightened! This is the end!
Alas, I had just pieced together that shattered reputation, but now it is shattered again. It can't stand the test of time.
It seems that I must do something to please my master...
Bai Lu cried in her heart for a while, then after thinking it over, she raised her head and said, "Big Sister, did you come here because you have nothing to do today and want to read a book to relax?"
Ning Yanhu: "..."
"Haha, Kaiyang Peak reported a strange incident before, but it was not urgent and I was not dealt with. Now they asked me to take a look." Ning Yanhu seemed to be grinding his teeth as he spoke. "I have read it. It is so strange. How can I deal with it? I suspect that some senior made a mistake and caused it."
I am so annoyed, so annoyed, so annoyed. Which senior is practicing martial arts and casting spells randomly again?
"Oh, we have also heard that there are strange things here, but I haven't been to Kaiyang Peak since the last time..." Liang Mangu said as he looked around, a little afraid that the spirit of the weapon would jump out. He didn't know why Brother Bai didn't seem worried at all. Was it really true that they couldn't get to know the spirit of the weapon without fighting?
Bai Lu looked around but didn't seem to see anything wrong. He had been wanting to say, "This place hasn't changed much since the last time we came here."
"No, it was reported before, not long after you joined the school, and it has not been resolved yet, but it does not prevent you from borrowing it. It's really strange, and it didn't happen outside, but--" Ning Yanhu thought it would be better to show it directly, so he picked up a large book and opened it.
I saw that above each line of text, there was a line of strange runes, and this was true for every page without exception.
Open another book and the same thing happens.
It's really confusing...
"Every book is like this! Everyone says that it is the runes studied by some senior brother, but they cannot be deciphered. It is extremely mysterious!" Meng Caiqing said. This thing does not affect reading. It is just like the naked senior brother of the Danding Sect who took the wrong medicine and ran away. It adds another legend to the Xuanshan Immortal Sect.
"What on earth is this?"
Bai Lu looked at those "runes" for a few seconds, then suddenly smiled with curved eyebrows, the rich emerald color in her eyes containing light: It's pinyin!
