Chapter 178 The world-famous, crazy person
The Hidden Dragon List of Tianji Tower has always been of great concern to all forces in the world.
After all, warriors who can make the list have a high probability of breaking through to the innate realm.
The strong ones in the Innate Realm are extremely powerful. Even in the top sects, they are the backbone and no force dares to underestimate them.
Countless warriors in the world are proud to be on the Hidden Dragon List.
Because that represents true fame and reputation.
Most warriors practice so hard just for fame and fortune.
Those who are on the Hidden Dragon List are famous all over the world. How many people can resist being tempted?
Therefore, the day when the Hidden Dragon List is announced every six months is the busiest time in Tianji Tower.
This time is no exception.
Early in the morning, many warriors were already waiting at the Tianji Tower branches in various provinces and counties across the country, all wanting to be the first to see the list.
Among them, there are many spies sent by major sects.
Then, when the list was posted, everyone was shocked.
Because there appeared a name that was extremely unfamiliar to them.
"Cangzhou Lu Qing, who is this person? Why have I never heard of him?"
"With only the initial stage of internal organs, he can be ranked 29th, ahead of all the martial arts masters?"
"A 17-year-old warrior at the Internal Organ Realm! Which sect in Cangzhou is this core disciple from?"
…
Almost everyone was attracted by the name Lu Qing on the list.
There is no way, because the information displayed on the list is really shocking.
The seventeen-year-old internal organ beginner warrior, who first appeared on the Hidden Dragon List, was ranked twenty-ninth, ahead of all the martial arts masters.
Any of these pieces of information would be shocking enough if it happened to other warriors.
Now all are concentrated on the same warrior, bringing real shock to people.
So much so that some people even suspected that Tianji Tower had made mistakes in the information.
Putting aside other things, how could a person at the initial stage of internal organs be ranked ahead of so many martial arts masters?
In response to the doubts, Tianji Tower quickly gave a response.
There is nothing wrong with the ranking, and the information above is completely correct, so there is no need to worry about making any mistakes.
The reputation of Tianji Tower is still very guaranteed.
Since they say it's not wrong, it must be true.
Therefore, after the response from Tianji Tower came out, warriors all over the world were really shocked.
There really is such a young genius in the world!
He was able to be included in the Hidden Dragon List at the age of seventeen.
Which sect could have cultivated such a peerless genius?
Many sectarian forces could not help but develop a strong interest.
As for getting information from Tianji Tower, forget it.
It has been more than a thousand years since Tianji Tower launched the Hidden Dragon List. Apart from some simple information, it has never revealed more information about those on the list.
If they want to know who this "Lu Qing" is, they have to investigate it themselves.
At one time, countless forces in the world began to send people to Cangzhou to find out the truth.
Of course, not all forces know nothing about Lu Qing.
Jeju, Qingyun Sword Pavilion.
In a small building, several old men were sitting opposite each other.
On the table in front of them, there was a list, which was the Hidden Dragon List.
"Lu Qing, Cangzhou..."
One of the old men with a white beard looked at the names on the list with a thoughtful look on his face.
Then he asked, "A few days ago, Ming Jian and his companions went out for training, and later reported back that they met a young genius in Cangzhou, who seemed to be also called Lu Qing?"
"That's right." Another short-haired old man nodded, "Moreover, they also said that the young genius has an amazing talent in martial arts. It is rumored that he once defeated a martial arts master with his perfect body in the tendon and bone realm. They even saw with their own eyes that he captured the top twelve celestial assassins of the Seven Killing Tower, 'Tian Gu', alive with just his two fists within a few dozen breaths."
"This is too unbelievable. When I first received the letter, I thought Ming Jian and the others were deceived and believed the rumors. I was very angry."
"But after carefully questioning the disciple who sent the letter back, I found that it was not a rumor, but a real thing."
"It just so happened that the day before yesterday, the Seven Killings Tower issued a Seven Killings Order, and the person being hunted down was also named Lu Qing."
"So it can be seen that what Mingjian and the others said is not false."
“If the Seven Killings Tower can issue the Seven Killings Order, then it must be correct. The Lu Qing mentioned by Ming Jian and the others should be the one on the Hidden Dragon List.” The white-bearded old man nodded.
They have the same name and surname, are both from Cangzhou, and are both young geniuses. Such a coincidence is impossible in the world.
The white-bearded old man immediately confirmed that Lu Qing, who was on the Hidden Dragon List, was the same person mentioned in the message from the sect disciples.
But this made him even more surprised.
“At the age of seventeen, he defeated the martial arts master with his perfect body of muscles and bones. I never thought that there would be such a peerless genius in this world.
No wonder Tianji Tower would include him in the Hidden Dragon List. If such a genius is not qualified to be on the Hidden Dragon List, then there are very few people in the world who are qualified.
I don't know which force could cultivate such a young genius!"
"According to what Mingjian said in the letter, the master of this Lu Qing is very mysterious. We only know that his master is a mysterious innate realm, but they did not have the chance to meet him at the Wei Mansion that day." said the short-haired old man.
"Who could this innate realm person of unknown identity be?" the white-bearded old man pondered secretly.
"It's a pity that Ming Jian and his companions haven't returned from their travels yet, otherwise we could ask them about the situation in detail."
There is a limit to what can be said in the letter, and many details cannot be described in detail.
This makes it impossible for them to know more information.
"Since this Lu Qing already has a master, there is no need to inquire too much, so as not to cause the other party to be disgusted."
The white-bearded old man thought for a while before speaking.
The other party has a master who is at the Innate Realm. It is obvious that the power behind him should be quite powerful.
If you probe too much and cause resentment and make enemies for nothing, the result will be more trouble than gain.
So after a brief discussion, the old man with white beard put the matter aside for the time being.
"I called you here today, in addition to the Hidden Dragon List, there is actually something more important to discuss, and that is about the 'Ten Thousand Years of Changes'."
As soon as these words were spoken, the faces of several old men suddenly became solemn.
"Master, is this ten thousand year change really coming?"
A thin old man couldn't help but say.
"Judging from the movements of various sects over the years, it should be correct." The white-bearded old man said seriously, "This matter concerns the future glory of our Sword Pavilion, and we must not be careless."
"But what exactly does this ten thousand year change refer to? We still haven't figured it out, so how should we deal with it?" said another old man.
“What exactly is the Ten Thousand Years of Change? Perhaps only the Four Great Secret Places, as well as ancient sects like the Tianji Tower and the Qisha Tower that have been passed down for ten thousand years know. Unfortunately, the foundation of our Jiange is still a little lacking.
But even if we don’t know the reason, we can’t just sit there and wait, we have to do something.”
The white-bearded old man said helplessly.
The other elders also fell silent.
It is really uncomfortable to feel that they know that huge changes are coming, but they don’t know why.
One of the old men suddenly said, "Why don't we go ask Junior Uncle for advice? He is very knowledgeable and must know something about the inside story."
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the old men suddenly changed and became unnatural.
It seemed that the words just now mentioned a very special person, which made them extremely wary.
But they also knew that what the old man said was a good solution.
If it's that person, maybe he really knows some secrets.
After all, that person was a ruthless person who dared to dig up the tomb of the founder of his sect in order to find the answers he wanted.
However, when they thought about Junior Master's temperament, they became hesitant again.
Given that person's hatred for the sect, is he really willing to help?
After a while, the old man with white beard finally sighed and said, "Let me go. Junior Master loved me the most back then. Maybe he will be willing to reveal some information because of our friendship in the past. After all, he also grew up here."
A quarter of an hour later, a white-bearded old man appeared on a cliff in the back mountain of Jiange, carrying a bamboo basket.
On the edge of the cliff, there is a small cave half a person's height. It is dark and deep, and no one knows where it leads to.
This is the sect's forbidden area. Except for the sect master and several supreme elders, no one else is allowed to approach.
The white-bearded old man hesitated for a while in front of the cave entrance, but finally bent down and went in.
After entering the cave and walking a dozen steps, the inside suddenly became clear. The cave walls became much wider and taller, and I could walk straight.
The white-bearded old man walked along the passage for a while. Suddenly, he heard the sound of water in front of him. After turning a corner, a huge cave appeared in front of him.
There is light leaking from the top, which can provide a little brightness to the cave.
There is also a small pool in the cave with water flowing down from above.
Whitebeard ignored the scene and walked straight to the cave wall next to the pool.
He bowed respectfully and said, "Greetings, Junior Master."
There was no other sound in the cave except the sound of flowing water.
After a while, a hoarse voice sounded: "I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be our lord. How come you have time to visit an old man like me when you have left your Sword Pavilion alone?"
A trace of shame flashed across the face of the white-bearded old man: "It's my fault, Junior-Master-Uncle. I have been managing the affairs of the sect for these years and have not been able to find time to pay my respects to Junior-Master-Uncle."
"Greetings? That sounds nice." The voice said sarcastically, "But weren't you the one who locked me up here in the first place? Why are you pretending to be so polite now?"
“Junior Uncle, even though I have let you down in the past, I do not regret what I did.” The white-bearded old man said with a firm expression.
"The trouble you caused back then was really too great. If we don't give the other party an explanation, I'm afraid the entire Sword Pavilion will be destroyed. As the sect master, I should put the sect first. I can only let you down."
"So back then, you took advantage of my trust in you, secretly poisoned me, destroyed my cultivation, and imprisoned me in this dark place?" the voice said without a trace of emotion.
"Master Junior is a very advanced cultivator. In a direct confrontation, I and the others are no match for him. I can only resort to this last resort. I am sorry to Master Junior. If you are resentful, I will accept your scolding no matter how you do it."
The voice was silent for a while, then suddenly sighed and said, "Forget it, forget it, why are you still talking about these things? Anyway, my cultivation is useless now. No matter what you say, I am just a useless person. Tell me, what is the purpose of your coming here this time?"
"Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Junior Master."
"It's not hard to guess. Ever since you imprisoned me here, you little bastards have felt guilty and dared not see me again. You never come here for no reason. If you didn't have something to do, why would you come here?"
"That's because we, the junior nephews, are ashamed to face you."
"Okay, stop talking nonsense. What's going on?" the voice said impatiently.
"It's like this, Junior Master." The white-bearded old man organized his words and said, "In recent years, strange phenomena have frequently appeared in various parts of the world. The top sects have been acting strangely, and they seem to be planning something.
We have tried our best to investigate, but we still don't understand.
I only learned by chance that the Tianji Tower once said that a great change will come in ten thousand years, the heaven and earth will change, disputes will arise, and chaos will come.
But what exactly this change of ten thousand years refers to, and what kind of changes it will bring, cannot be found out.
Junior Master is well-informed and knowledgeable, I wonder if he knows the inside story?"
"What did you say? A great change is coming?!"
Unexpectedly, the voice became excited instantly after hearing this.
There was a rattling sound of iron chains colliding, and a figure suddenly sat up from under the cave wall.
It turned out that the person who had been talking to the white-bearded old man had been lying there.
Because the cave was dark and the man's clothes were dirty, they blended with the color of the cave walls, so he could not be seen at first glance.
"Xiao Jianwen, are you telling the truth? A great change is coming?"
The man was very emotional, his body was shaking, and the sound of iron chains was heard again.
However, he was tied up with several iron chains as thick as his forearms and tied to the wall of the cave.
"This is the information that my nephew got from Tianji Tower. It should be correct."
"Hahaha, this day has finally come! I have finally waited for this day. I have been waiting for more than two hundred years. You bastard God, you will not be able to kill me after all!"
The figure laughed loudly, as if crazy.
"Uncle Junior Master, you really do know something, right?"
When the old man with white beard saw this, he understood what was going on and was immediately overjoyed.
"Of course I know. How could I not know? If it weren't for this secret, how could I have ended up in this situation?"
The voice of that figure was still crazy.
"Uncle Master, since you know the reason, please give us some guidance." The white-bearded old man pleaded.
"You want to know what the great changes that took place over ten thousand years were?" the figure asked.
"Please give me some advice, Junior Master."
"Then let's make a deal."
The figure had a weird smile under his messy hair.
