Chapter 257: Geniuses Emerge, People with Great Luck
"What decision?" Lu Qing asked curiously.
The old doctor also looked like he was listening.
“The three holy masters care about the world, and they want to prevent those sects that do not have ancient cultivation methods from provoking disputes and causing Zhongzhou to fall into war.
Finally, they decided to have the Holy Mountain bring out three ancient cultivation methods for practitioners around the world to comprehend.”
Xuanjizi explained.
"How can the Holy Mountain be so courageous?"
Lu Qing was very surprised when he heard this.
This answer was really beyond his expectations.
But after thinking about it, he felt that this was actually a good idea.
At least it can prevent the tension between the sects in Zhongzhou from becoming so intense.
This method is not applicable to everyone.
Everyone in the world has selfish desires, and it takes a lot of courage to make the powerful cultivation methods you have mastered public.
"Yes, the three saints have broad minds and are truly role models for those of us who practice cultivation." Xuanjizi said with reverence.
At this point, Lu Qing finally understood why the outside states had already begun to riot, but Zhongzhou had not done anything yet.
It turns out that all the major sects are busy pursuing their own interests.
Presumably, the powerful Xiantian realm masters in those sects are now concentrating their efforts on comprehending the ancient practice methods that can refine spiritual energy, so they have no time to care about the affairs of other states.
Of course, this also made Lu Qing feel a little relieved.
Since Zhongzhou hasn't really been in chaos yet, they can still get in.
"Mr. Lu, Doctor Chen, what are the reasons for your visit to Zhongzhou?" asked Xuanjizi.
“I am not afraid of being laughed at by the seniors. At that time, Lord Zhirui once said that after my master broke through the Xiantian realm, as long as he was willing to abide by the prohibitions of the Holy Mountain, he would have the opportunity to go to the Holy Mountain for enlightenment.
I don’t know if this promise still counts.”
Lu Qing was a little worried. After Zhongzhou experienced all these changes, whether the so-called promise of opportunity was still valid.
"So it's for this matter." Upon hearing this, Xuanjizi immediately laughed and said, "Young Master Lu, don't worry about this. The Holy Mountain is still controlled by the three Holy Lords, so the promise is still valid.
Speaking of which, not long ago, a newly promoted Xiantian Realm entered the Holy Mountain to meditate, so if Doctor Chen goes, there will naturally be no problem."
"Then we feel relieved." Lu Qing felt relieved.
Next, the three of them chatted for a while, and Lu Qing took the opportunity to find out a lot of information about Zhongzhou's current situation.
Feeling very satisfied, he was about to say goodbye to his master when he suddenly remembered something.
Then he asked, "By the way, Senior Xuanjizi, I have something else I want to ask you."
"But it's okay."
Xuanjizi chatted with Lu Qing for a while and developed a good impression of Lu Qing.
This young man had extraordinary conversation and broad knowledge, especially his insights on martial arts, which benefited him greatly.
“When we entered the city today, we saw the three characters [Qinglong City] carved on the city gate, which seemed to have a mystery.
But a guard at the city gate advised us not to try to comprehend the meaning of the words easily.
From the look on the guard's face, it seemed that he was not being hypocritical and was giving sincere advice.
I wonder if Senior Xuanjizi knows why this is happening?"
"The guard at the city gate?" Xuanjizi pondered for a moment, his expression suddenly changed, "The guard who gave you advice was a young man?"
"Yes, that young man has a fair complexion and an extraordinary bearing. He doesn't look like an ordinary guard." Lu Qing said.
"That should be correct. The one who gave you the advice should be the third son of the Ji family in Qinglong City.
As for why he reminded you, the reasons are quite complicated. "
"Oh? I'd like to hear more about it."
“With your martial arts attainments, you must have seen that the words engraved on the city gate contain special artistic conception that can shake people’s hearts.
To be honest, the inscription was carved by a peerless strong man who was famous in Zhongzhou more than a hundred years ago, before his death.
That peerless strong man was an extraordinary person who lived a free and easy life. He had no wife, no children, and no heirs.
More than a hundred years ago, he knew that his end was approaching, so he wanted to leave Zhongzhou and travel around.
At that time, he was just leaving Qinglong City. Before leaving, on a whim, he carved three big words on the city gate.
After that, he left and disappeared, and never returned to Zhongzhou again.
Some people say that he was traveling abroad and died in a foreign land when his time came.
Some people also say that while he was traveling, he understood the mystery of life and death, stepped into another supreme and mysterious realm, and flew away.
In short, there are many different opinions, and it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false. Even we in Tianji Tower don’t know where the senior has gone, or whether he is alive or dead. "
After Xuanjizi's explanation, Lu Qing finally understood the origin of the three engravings.
But he still had a question: "But what does this have to do with the advice given to us by the Third Young Master of the Ji Family?"
“When that peerless strong man left Zhongzhou and disappeared, there were different stories about his life and death.
Similarly, the inscriptions he left on Qinglong City also attracted the attention of countless warriors.
Everyone says that the inscription contains the inherited skills left behind by an unrivaled powerful person.
Whoever can comprehend the mystery can obtain the lifelong inheritance of that peerless strong man and soar to the sky from then on.
As soon as this rumor came out, it immediately caused a sensation among countless warriors around the world.
During that time, countless warriors came from all over the world every day and gathered outside Qinglong City to comprehend the inscriptions, hoping to obtain the unique inheritance from them.
Even the innate realm masters from the major sects in Zhongzhou heard the news and came to observe.
After all, that peerless strong man was extremely famous in Zhongzhou back then.
His strength is so strong that, except for the three Holy Lords, there is almost no rival for him in the whole Zhongzhou.
Naturally, everyone is interested in the legacy he might leave behind.
Finally, after many powerful people’s contemplation, the conclusion was reached.
The inscriptions indeed contained the martial arts will of that peerless master, but that will was not something that everyone could comprehend.
Only when one's own martial arts philosophy and path are in perfect harmony with that of a peerless strong man, will it be possible to gain some insights.
Otherwise, even if one is a strong person in the innate realm, if he tries to comprehend it by force, he may be distracted by its will and damage his own martial arts foundation.
At the beginning, when the innate realm masters announced this matter, many warriors were unwilling to believe it and still came one after another to comprehend the engraving.
Later, as time went by, countless warriors tried to comprehend the engraving, but in the end no one was able to understand the mystery and obtain the complete inheritance.
On the contrary, there are also many talented warriors who, due to forced comprehension, were distracted by the meaning of the engraved words, and ultimately damaged their foundations and became unable to recover.
Only then did everyone realize that what those powerful innate realm masters said was true and not false.
After recognizing this fact, the number of people coming to Qinglong City to comprehend the engraving gradually decreased.
In the end, people even started spreading rumors that there was no inheritance in engraving at all.
Everything was just a joke played by that peerless powerful man on the people of the world.
So gradually, after a few decades, engraving became almost unpopular.
Now, more than a hundred years have passed, and although there are still occasional self-important warriors who come to comprehend the engravings and want to unravel the mysteries contained therein.
But this is still a very rare case after all, and it is rare to see one in a year."
So exaggerated.
After listening to Xuanjizi's story, Lu Qing finally understood why that man was called the Martial Saint.
Presumably, his martial arts skills have really reached the level of transcendence.
"No wonder the third son of the Ji family specifically reminded me that the inscription has such a profound origin."
"That's right, but the reason why the third son of the Ji family reminded you may be related to his eldest brother, the eldest son of the Ji family." Xuanjizi said.
"Oh, what's the reason?" Lu Qing asked.
“The eldest son of the Ji family is also an extremely gifted martial arts genius. When he was only twenty years old, he had already entered the inner realm.
This kind of talent is considered to be the best even in the entire Zhongzhou.
The Ji family also had high hopes for him and invested all kinds of resources in him, hoping that the family would be able to produce another innate realm expert in the future to consolidate the family's status.
If things had continued like this, the path of martial arts for the eldest son of the Ji family would have been very smooth and bright.
Even if he cannot enter the innate realm in the future, he will definitely be a martial arts master with extraordinary strength.
However, just a few years ago, for some unknown reason, the eldest son of the Ji family suddenly ran to the city gate and began to comprehend the words engraved there.
Moreover, he was distracted by the martial arts implications on the engraved words, and his cultivation that had already reached the high level of internal organs was almost completely wasted.
Even his own mind became crazy. Every day he would just stare blankly at the sky, without saying a word, and ignoring everyone.
This incident not only shocked the Ji family, but also made the head of the Ji family extremely angry.
In a fit of rage, he directly expelled the eldest son of the Ji family, who had given up on himself and whose cultivation was almost wasted, from the family. No one could persuade him to do so.
As for the third son of the Ji family, it was said that he had admired his eldest brother since he was a child. He was shocked when he learned about this.
He was traveling in Zhongzhou. After hearing about this, he rushed back without sleep for several days.
However, the eldest son of the Ji family has been missing since he was expelled from the family, and his whereabouts remain unknown to this day.
The third son of the Ji family had a big fight with his father because of this matter, and now the two have not reconciled yet. "
When Lu Qing heard this, he thought that the information from Tianji Tower was indeed unique, and even these details were clear.
But he was still a little curious: "Didn't the third son of the Ji family go out to look for his eldest brother?"
"Of course he did look for her. He went out to look for her for two years, but the world is so big that it is not easy to find someone. In the end, he couldn't find her after searching all over the world. After returning to Qinglong City, he was so discouraged that he got a job in the City Lord's Mansion and lived a day-to-day life." Xuanjizi said.
"I see."
Lu Qing suddenly realized.
However, he did not quite agree with Xuanjizi's last words.
muddle along?
That's not the case.
Lu Qing thought of the information he had previously found out about the third son of the Ji family, and a hint of interest appeared in his eyes.
Of course, these things have little to do with him, so he doesn't intend to care.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Ji San would be so kind. It seems that I must find an opportunity to thank him properly."
Lu Qing said: "By the way, Senior Xuanjizi, my master and I have disturbed you for long enough today. We are traveling with other people, so in order to prevent them from worrying, we will not bother you any more."
"You two are leaving now?"
Xuanjizi was slightly startled, and after trying to persuade them to stay, he saw that Lu Qing and the others were indeed ready to go back, so he stood up to see them off.
After Lu Qing and the other person disappeared, the middle-aged man holding the abacus quietly appeared behind them.
"Elder, are these the two that Zhirui Zhenchuan specifically told me to pay close attention to two years ago?"
"Yes, I thought they would come here last year, but I didn't expect it to be delayed until now."
“But when I look at them, they both seem ordinary, not as mysterious as Zhi Ruizhen said.
Moreover, the relationship between them as master and disciple is somewhat strange, as it seems to be centered around Mr. Lu."
The middle-aged man expressed his doubts.
"Nothing special?" Xuanjizi shook his head, his eyes puzzled. "These two are truly unfathomable. Not to mention you, even if I fight, I may not be their opponent."
"Elder, how could it be..."
The middle-aged man was shocked.
He knew the cultivation level of his elders and knew what level they had reached.
Coupled with the various mysterious secrets of their Tianji Tower, it can be said that although the elders are not well-known, they are not inferior to the supreme elders of those major sects.
But now he says that he is no match for Lu Qing and the others?
As a middle-level figure in Tianji Tower, the middle-aged man possesses a lot of information, including that of Master Lu Qing and his disciple.
He really couldn't believe that an old man who had just entered the Innate Realm two years ago and his disciples could make the elders so fearful.
"Nothing is impossible." Xuanjizi sighed, "Now that the world is changing and the spiritual energy is reviving, it is destined that many incredible geniuses will emerge.
Not long ago, news came from the main building that a disciple of the Tianling Sect had comprehended the peerless sword art during the sect competition and swept the entire venue.
Afterwards, he challenged the elder of the Xiantian realm with the perfection of the inner viscera realm, and finally won narrowly.
Then there was the Xingkui Sect, which had an inner sect disciple who originally had mediocre aptitude. However, through some unknown opportunity, he attained enlightenment overnight. From the initial entry into the inner viscera realm, he broke through several levels in succession and finally achieved the innate realm, shocking the entire sect.
Such a monstrous genius, a talent that can defy the heavens and shock the world, was rarely seen in the world until one appeared every few decades or even a hundred years.
Their frequent appearance nowadays indicates that with the changes in the world, there will be more and more peerless geniuses who are born with destiny.
Who can guarantee that this Mr. Lu is not one of them?"
No, maybe it should be said that he is one of them!
Xuanjizi thought of what his junior apprentice brother Zhirui had once said to him, and thought to himself.
But he didn't expect that what Junior Brother Zhirui once said was that Young Master Lu was very likely a man of great luck and difficult to see through.
But when he met him today, he found that his master was equally elusive and mysterious.
Could it be that this destiny of heaven will not only appear on the younger generation?
Is it possible for old guys like them to gain the favor of heaven?
A strange thought suddenly came to Xuanjizi's mind.
