Although they didn't ask for help from the Changxian Sect disciples, Lou Huaijing and Ying Muyi voluntarily stayed behind to help Fatty and Zhou Yuanjiang. They didn't feel that it was a loss of status as Changxian Sect disciples.
Lou Huaijing and Zhou Yuanwei knew each other, and they knew a lot of other people as well. After all, they came out of the Bloody Forest together and fought together. However, both sides had changed a lot. Seeing the changes in Zhou Yuanjiang and the others, Lou Huaijing and Ying Muyi were sincerely happy for them.
Soon, Tianlin Town was completed, and the protective formation also completed the initial test operation. It only needed some processing and corrections later, and everyone celebrated.
Zhou Yuanjiang and his people were the happiest, as this place was built by them. After returning to the mainland, they felt like floating duckweed, with no sense of belonging no matter where they stayed. At this moment, their hearts settled down, as this was their home, their roots. In the future, whether they lived or died, or where they went, they would say that they were from Tianlin Town.
Just as they were celebrating, the Tianlin formation's alert formation sounded a warning. Gu Yao and Chi Changye looked up and saw a figure standing in the air. Lou Huaijing and Ying Muching were shocked and stood up quickly: "How did Master Yan get here? Who told Master Yan about the situation here?" The
person who came was Yan Yuanjing, and he deliberately did not avoid the alert formation to remind the people in the town of his arrival.
Zhou Yuanjiang and others became alert. It was hard to tell whether Yan Yuanjing and Chi Changye's positions were in opposition or agreement. The last time Yan Yuanjing showed up, he wanted to take Master Gu Yao away, but was intercepted by Chi Changye. What did he want to do this time? It seems that the other party has a scheduled battle with Chi Changye. In their opinion, it is clear that they are coming at this time with bad intentions.
Gu Yao waved his hand, asking Zhou Yuanjiang and the others to be patient, and invited the figure in the air: "Senior Yan, won't you come down for a drink?"
Yan Yuanjing floated down, looked at the group of people expressionlessly and said: "I heard you were here, I came to see."
If there is a chance, I will ask for advice. He kept this in his heart but didn't say it out loud, but the slightly bright eyes had already said it for him.
Lou Huaijing and Ying Muching wanted to cover their eyes. Their former senior brother, now uncle, really only had cultivation and fighting in his eyes and heart.
Chi Changye raised his lips and stretched out his hand, saying, "Thank you, please take a seat."
Yan Yuanjing sat down very obediently, and someone immediately brought him wine, food and spiritual fruits. Tian Feirong and the fat man also talked in a low voice with their heads touching. They both felt that this guy was staring at Brother Chi intently. Would Gu Yao, who couldn't stand it anymore, throw him out one day?
With two "bangs", Gu Yao threw two fruit cores unceremoniously, hitting them on the head, causing them to talk about him behind his back.
Although there was an unexpected guest, this guest was very quiet, sitting aside and tasting wine and eating food, without making any sound. If it weren't for his strong aura, people would mistakenly think that there was no outsider.
This strange atmosphere lasted for quite some time. Lou Huaijing and Ying Muching went back to the sect for a while, but Yan Yuanjing stayed behind. Gu Yao also arranged a place for him to live.
In order to let Zhou Yuanjiang and others exert their strongest fighting power, Chi Changye took over the task of training them. He and Fatty worked out the most suitable formation and trained them until they became instinctive. At the same time, some people who practiced swordsmanship came to Chi Changye for advice. He gave them guidance without reservation. When he practiced swordsmanship, he did not stop others from watching. As long as they were far enough away, they would not be hurt by the sword energy. At this time, Yan Yuanjing was absolutely indispensable, standing closer than anyone else.
Chi Changye performed the simplest movements, holding the sword in his hand, swinging it forward again and again, the movements were slow and effortless, it seemed that even a three-year-old child could do it, but none of the people watching left, some were even fascinated. The movement
here shocked Gu Yao and the others, and they came together to watch. With their level of cultivation, they could tell something was wrong with just a few glances.
Gu Yao's eyes lit up, and so did Tian Feirong: "Brother Chi is really amazing, it looks like the most ordinary action, but this chop caused the surrounding space to shake. Didn't we see that Yan Yuanjing was standing so close before, but this time he is much farther away.
" The fat man also exclaimed: "Books say that the way to success is simple, and in the end everything will be simplified. Isn't this what Brother Chi is doing now?" "
Gu Yao thought for a while and said: "Although it is not possible to reach that level, what he is doing now should be to discard the complicated moves, but integrate those things into this simple move. I heard Brother Ye talk about the several stages of swordsmanship. After the sword spirit is the sword intention, and the higher level of the sword intention is to move towards the trend. To realize the sword trend is the real strength of the sword cultivator.
Everyone seems to understand, but they also know that it is not easy to reach that step, but if you reach that stage, Chi Changye will become a very remarkable sword cultivator.
When Chi Changye finished his sword practice and left, the others immediately ran over to see that the originally intact stone was broken into pieces with a light touch, which made them gasp from time to time, and their inner admiration for Chi Changye reached a new level.
After this sword practice, Yan Yuanjing left. He returned to the sect and left the word "retreat" and disappeared. Patriarch Lou and Lou Huaijing and others were helpless. Later, Lou Huaijing learned about the situation in Tianlin Town and guessed that Yan Yuanjing had gained something after watching Chi Changye practice sword, so he quickly closed his door to absorb and digest it.
But Lou Huaijing was worried that Uncle Yan would accept the challenge in the near future. Does Master Yan have a chance of winning? If it is a battle that is bound to be lost, will it have any impact on Master Yan?
On the eve of the appointment period, Yan Yuanjing came out of retreat very punctually. One look at his posture, and you know that he is ready to fight. Looking at his cultivation, Laozu Lou and others who ran to his cave were speechless.
Although his breath has become heavier, he is still in the early stage of Yuanying. At this stage of Yuanying, the more you go up a small level, the more difficult it is. It is not so easy to break through from the early stage of Yuanying to the middle stage. Laozu Lou relied on hundreds of years of accumulation to achieve it. If you want to move from the middle stage of Yuanying to the late stage of Yuanying, it will take even longer.
In fact, both Patriarch Lou and the elders of Changxian Sect wanted to persuade Yan Yuanjing to give up the challenge, because they did not think Yan Yuanjing could beat Chi Changye, who had also advanced to the Yuanying level.
"Brother Yan, can't you not go?" One elder asked bravely. It was no wonder that they were not confident. Most of the elders today were promoted later. Although they were also Yuanying, their fighting ability was really not good enough in front of Yan Yuanjing.
Yan Yuanjing looked at the elder coldly, bowed to Patriarch Lou, and was about to set off.
Patriarch Lou knew that he couldn't change his decision, so he had to say, "Okay, I'll personally accompany you on this trip."
Yan Yuanjing didn't object. Patriarch Lou arranged the affairs of the sect, then took the two of them and some key disciples and set off with Yan Yuanjing. The place they agreed on last time was the border between Taoism and Demonism, which was also the place where the two had fought last time.
Because the news of the challenge had been spread on the mainland for a long time, when they arrived, many cultivators had already gathered here, especially the two sides of the ditch left by the two men when they fought, which was crowded with people. To this day, the ditch still retains the remnants of the two men's sword energy, and it is still a place that people who practice swordsmanship yearn for. Anyone who comes here, as long as they understand one of the sword energies, will be able to rapidly improve their swordsmanship.
Those who practiced swords also included magic cultivators. Who said that magic cultivators could not practice swords and become sword cultivators? However, the swords of magic cultivators tended to be treacherous and varied, making it difficult for people to grasp them. Even if they practiced to perfection, they should not be underestimated. However, this did not hinder the worship of Chi Changye by these magic sword cultivators, because no matter how treacherous their swords were, they were powerless in front of Chi Changye's swordsmanship.
Many magic cultivators came. Now when they mentioned Chi Changye and Gu Yao, their love and hatred were as deep as theirs. The situation that happened in Baishang City last time had spread throughout the magic world as those cultivators returned, causing the status of that witch in the magic world to plummet. Then they hated Gu Yao for not being influenced by her beauty and charm. He also said such words, which made the Demonic Path fall flat on its face.
Some demon cultivators secretly ran to the Sky Spider Demon to complain, hoping that the Sky Spider Demon could teach the rampant Gu Yao a lesson on behalf of the Demonic Path. Unexpectedly, the Sky Spider Demon laughed after hearing it, saying that he was indeed the person he had chosen, and his character was different from that of ordinary cultivators.
As for this battle, the Sky Spider Demon did not come at all, because for him, this was a battle with a known outcome, so what was there to watch?
Without exception, the bigwigs of the righteous and demonic cultivators, such as Alliance Leader Meng, Clan Leader Yin, and others, also did not come. Unless Yan Yuanjing could break through to the middle stage of Yuanying during this period of time, they did not see any chance of Yan Yuanjing winning.
The reason why it still attracted many cultivators to come and watch was that most of them wanted to watch the battle between the two on the spot, and it would be a great gain if they could understand one or two points.
Not long after Yan Yuanjing arrived, Chi Changye and Gu Yao also arrived. Yin Hua followed them without hesitation. He came to protect his nephew, not for Chi Changye. Well, that's it.
However, many people found that Gu Yao and his group came from the same direction as Yan Yuanjing, so where were Gu Yao and Chi Changye before?
Gu Yao's whereabouts have always been a mystery. You know, after Gu Yao left Baishang City, there are countless cultivators looking for him to ask for pills, especially the magic cultivators. They were rejected by Gu Yao in Baishang City. After Baishang City, they should not be rejected. However, his whereabouts have not been found.
Could it be that Gu Yao has been staying near the range of the magic forces? Could it be that they have been blinded by the light?
"Fellow Daoist Chi, let's start." Seeing Chi Changye coming, Yan Yuanjing drew his sword without saying a word.
"Okay."
Chi Changye had just responded when the two flew into the air and started fighting. The monks below quickly dispersed to avoid being affected by the aftermath.
This fight lasted for three days and three nights. It was different from the last time. The last time was a quick battle to determine the winner and loser, so as to discourage Yan Yuanjing. This time, the two came purely to compare swordsmanship, and victory or defeat was not that important to the two.
Chi Changye had to admit that Yan Yuanjing was no less talented than him in swordsmanship. It could only be said that Chi Changye had a very solid foundation. When he was young, he received the most pure and complete swordsmanship instruction in Lingtian Sect. When he was full of energy and ambition, he suffered a major blow and was exiled to Tianlin Continent. Chi Changye decided to start all over again. His swordsmanship was honed again and his foundation was more solid.
Later, in Tianfu Academy, he received help and inheritance from Jian Ge, which made his swordsmanship take a big step forward. If it weren't for such opportunities, he wouldn't dare to say that he was absolutely better than Yan Yuanjing in swordsmanship.
This was his third fight with Yan Yuanjing. He found that after each fight with Yan Yuanjing, the opponent's swordsmanship had a huge leap. The last time he fought with Yan Yuanjing in Shifang City on Tianlin Continent, he found that Yan Yuanjing had undergone a complete transformation compared to the last time in Shifang City. Even this time, he had made a lot of progress. He was an opponent that should not be underestimated. For
three days and three nights, no cultivator left on their own initiative. From the simplest sword moves, the fight looked the most intense, to the final sword energy fight, and then to the sword intent competition, the fight was so exciting and shocking that even the onlookers were intoxicated. It was no less than a feast of swordsmanship.
Especially the monks who practiced swordsmanship, they were all very excited when they left. They saw too much from this fight, and it would take a long time to digest and absorb it. Their strength would definitely increase a lot afterwards.
The video balls recorded afterwards were in short supply on the mainland, and the monks who did this business made a lot of money.
They originally thought that a fight with a predetermined outcome would not be interesting, so they did not go. When the images in the video ball appeared, these monks regretted it. The things conveyed in the video ball alone were amazing enough, and you can imagine how intense the scene would be.
This battle was so exciting that the outcome was secondary. Even though Yan Yuanjing lost the battle, no monk who had seen the scene laughed at him for being inferior to others, because Yan Yuanjing had won everyone's respect with his swordsmanship, and no one could deny his superior strength.
Many bigwigs were also analyzing the battle between the two and evaluating their true strength.
After reading it once, City Lord Liu said, "I am not as good as them. They seemed to be a little restrained at first, but in the end they used all their strength. If we were there, we would have seen that the spiritual energy space around them might have been shattered. In that case, even a sneak attack on them would not be possible because it would be shattered by the aura around them first."
After reading it, Alliance Leader Meng said, "The young are to be feared."
Clan Leader Yin's eyes flashed, "Demon cultivators can surpass many human cultivators by virtue of their innate advantages, but there are always some or individual human cultivators who can surpass demon cultivators by virtue of their acquired efforts. Humans should never be underestimated."
