Summer is here.
The elm trees on both sides of the main street of Yecheng are becoming more and more luxuriant, and the sound of cicadas can be heard everywhere; the girls on the street are wearing cooler and cooler clothes, with long tube dresses covered with shawls, and their slender arms as white as lotus roots are faintly visible. The snack stalls in the city are selling honey cold rice dumplings and sesame sauce cold noodles, and the bosses stand by and greet the customers warmly.
The small courtyard by Qiu Lake is particularly cool on such a summer day because it is in the shade and has the waves and lake breeze.
The disciples of Cangya Mountain still went out early today.
But perhaps because there was a particularly eye-catching competition today, or perhaps it was just that the daylight had risen earlier, when they walked down the street, there were already many eyes staring at them, overtly and covertly.
Yin Biyue frowned slightly. He could use his spiritual sense to block prying eyes, but he couldn't stop other people's eyes from falling on him.
From the time he came down the mountain until now, he has felt the trouble of this non-mainstream hair color. If possible, he still hopes to change it back.
A battle with a huge gap in realm was approaching, but he was thinking about these things because he was in a good mood and not worried.
Yin Biyue was not the first one.
But many people knew that he was going to fight today. From the crowd under the ring, to the gambling houses in Ye City, and even the four continents thousands of miles away, everyone paid great attention to this fight.
Even the seats in the east stands had begun to be rearranged because two new elders who were half a step away from becoming a great master had arrived. One was from the Qinglu Sword Sect, and the other was Ye Cheng's priest.
They had not shown up in the past few days, but appeared at this time, as if they came here specifically to see the white-haired boy draw his sword.
This was naturally not because Yin Biyue's cultivation level was high, but because he had the towering figure of the Sword Saint behind him.
The more powerful one is and the longer one lives, the more he likes to think things are complicated. Xi Huafeng has never participated in the Flower Folding Club, but he came this year. What does the Sword Saint want to do?
The senior warriors sitting in the stands drank Junshan Yunwu Tea under the lush shade of the trees, laughed and talked about vague and pompous things, looked at the group of young people who were like newborn calves in the audience, and finally waited for the young man to come on stage.
Yin Biyue and He Lai came on stage to pay their respects.
The previous matches in the other three arenas had just ended, and the deacons were busy announcing the results, cleaning the venue, and carrying people away.
The two of them came up too early and since no one called for the start, they could only stand facing each other.
Since so many people are watching, I have to say something.
He Lai looked indifferent and said calmly, "You are very good."
I heard that the other party has reached the state of concentration after only three years of entering Cangya, so naturally he deserves to be called good.
Then he changed the subject, "Unfortunately, I'm unlucky, so I'm here."
The implication is that since I was drawn against myself in the first round, it is naturally impossible for me to go on.
There was an uproar in the audience.
But there was no laughter, because He Zi was so confident and proud, and he had the capital to do so. In terms of realm alone, he was one level higher than Yin Bi.
The people in the audience discussed, wanting to see how the Sword Master's disciples would respond.
Luo Mingchuan frowned slightly. His junior brother had a simple personality. How could he handle such a situation?
Duan Chongxuan's face was not looking good either. He wished that it was him standing on the stage so that he could scold the other party!
Yin Biyue said nothing.
He turned and walked towards the big elm tree beside the arena, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he reached out and broke off a piece of elm branch.
With a flick of the wrist, all the green leaves fell.
He turned around holding the dead branch.
He Lai understood what he meant and his face changed suddenly.
But he soon calmed down and said indifferently,
"If you don't take the sword now, you will never have the chance to take the sword again."
The uproar breaks out again!
"What does he want to do? Use dead branches as swords to fight across the border?!"
"Are all Sword Saint disciples so arrogant?!"
Yin Biyue still didn't speak.
He saw the masters sitting on the stage from the corner of his eye, and felt two irresistible spiritual consciousnesses falling on him. If it weren't for his powerful soul and keen perception, he wouldn't even be able to feel it. The spiritual consciousness of the Mahayana realm.
His true energy could not be injected into the sword.
Perhaps the Hinayana realm couldn't see the clues of his sword method, but he couldn't take risks in front of the Mahayana realm.
With no other choice, he broke branches and fought.
Even though all the ideas about this battle in the past few days were scrapped.
His calmness was seen as arrogance by others, but as an insult by He Lai.
Why does he look slightly cold?
At this time, the deacon disciple of Qinglu Sword Sect came over here and shouted, "Where did Yin Biyue of Cangya Mountain come from to fight against Baopu Sect?"
The two sides had already exchanged greetings, so the fight began directly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword at his waist was unsheathed.
At the same time, a sword light appeared more than ten feet away!
It split into eight and quickly broke through the air, and the sharp and shrill sword whistle echoed throughout the wilderness!
The green halo of the flowing Bagua runes enveloped the entire arena.
All of Yin Biyue's retreat routes in the eight directions were blocked. No matter which direction he slashed, the other seven swords would arrive in an instant.
The sword contains the Eight Trigrams and the universe.
He Lai's face was as calm as water as he drew his sword.
He had waited for this moment for too long, he had practiced this move too well.
The time from drawing the sword to launching the attack was so short that it was almost non-existent.
His first move was his strongest one!
The angle of the sword and the control of the true energy are both accurate to the last detail!
This showed that he was still calm even though he was angry, and it also showed that he didn't want to give Yin Biyue any chance.
The people in the audience obviously didn't expect the pace of the battle to be so fast. When they suddenly saw such a shocking sword, they even forgot their words.
How will the Sword Master's disciples respond to this long-awaited sword?
Yin Biyue did not draw his sword.
He held a dry branch in his hand, his figure was faint and he disappeared right on the spot.
The next moment, he appeared in the west of the ring. Then he took two steps to the north, and his figure actually retreated straight back!
In the midst of such swift sword light, his expression remained unchanged, as if he was strolling leisurely in the garden.
Everyone came back to their senses from the previous sword and marveled that this was the real Baopu Bagua.
The Bagua Sword I saw a few days ago only had its shape, and compared with this sword, it seemed like a fake.
They ignored Yin Biyue's slightly strange body movements, and all sighed that under the brilliance of this sword, even the Sword Saint's disciples did not dare to match its edge.
But some people won't ignore it.
The half-step Mahayana worshipper from Yecheng in the stands narrowed his eyes, then suddenly smiled, and the fine wrinkles at the corners of his eyes smoothed out.
He sighed with a nostalgic look, "Tashanhe, it's been a long time since we last met..."
Stepping on mountains and rivers is the movement used by the dean when he walks in the Central Plains.
Everyone knows that Mr.'s space magic is unparalleled. Many people forget that before he mastered the secret of space, he used "Treading Mountains and Rivers".
This kind of body movement is not a secret, but few people have learned it because it requires powerful calculation ability. Each step must be calculated a thousand steps ahead, and it is also accompanied by a severe consumption of spiritual consciousness.
So until the detailed instructions on the footwork in the university library were covered with dust, no one learned it anymore.
But Yin Biyue used it today. In battle, he calculated the direction of the opponent's sword.
In front of Qinglu Sword Sect, everyone left a distance, Song Tang in the ink-and-wash robe praised, "It lives up to its reputation."
If I were facing this sword, I could certainly use sword moves and realm to suppress the opponent, but I couldn't avoid it perfectly like this.
Zhong Shan beside him kept his expression unchanged and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Everyone only saw He Lai's sword piercing through the rainbow, and Yin Biyue was forced to retreat quickly. Naturally, they thought that the phrase "well-deserved reputation" was praising Bao Pu Zong's Bagua sword.
The sword's power was exhausted, and Yin Bi took eight steps forward.
Everyone then noticed that there were eight shallow scratches on the ring, and stone chips were falling down.
There is a protective formation on the stage. If such a sword mark falls on the body, it can even cut the meridians.
But Yin Biyue avoided it completely, so it is equally admirable.
He Lai never expected that this sword would be avoided.
But he is the leader of the younger generation of Baopu Sect and one of the 'Seven Sons of Baopu', so it is impossible that he only knows how to use a sword.
And it was impossible for Yin Biyue to avoid every sword.
So without waiting for Yin Biyue to stand firm, He Lai swung his sword again!
The sword was not fast, and one could even clearly see its trajectory.
There was no flying sword light, nor any Bagua runes.
He Lai held the sword in his hand, tapped his toes lightly, and stabbed forward with the sword!
He was like a white crane flapping its wings in the air, leaping high into the air, so light!
"What a great 'ascend to the blue sky'!"
The person who spoke out in praise was an elder of the Baopu Sect, and his disciples standing behind him echoed him.
Good wind helps me soar to the sky.
'Ascending to the Blue Clouds' is the light body technique of the Baopu Sect. How could it be performed so perfectly together with the sword power in such a fierce battle? Not only the Baopu Sect feels proud, but even the disciples of the Qinglu Sword Sect admire it.
Just then, something even more shocking happened.
The sword in He Lai's hand, reflecting the dazzling bright summer sunlight, seemed to be burning!
The disciple closest to the stage already felt a wave of heat coming towards him through the protective formation.
The branches and leaves of the elm tree beside the arena were blown up by the heat wave, and even smoke came out.
Wherever the sword passes, the true energy surges and the whole area burns!
The tip of the sword was pointing at a white-haired boy holding a dry branch.
An elder in the Hinayana realm in the stands felt sorry for Yin Biyue, "He has good talent and is agile, but the gap in realm is like a chasm in the sky. What can we do?"
Almost everyone thinks so.
When He Lai swung that sword, Yin Biyue had already lost.
Because this is not just one sword, the entire arena is under the sword power!
What kind of body movement is required to completely avoid this sword?
Just step down.
Luo Mingchuan's expression remained unchanged, but his palms were soaked with cold sweat.
Unexpectedly, Yin Biyue did not move, he raised the dry branch in his hand.
He had verified his guess, so naturally he had to draw his sword.
The Seven Sons of Baopu are not there to make up the numbers. The seven of them, plus one strong man, form a Bagua Sword Formation.
The Qian Gua in the main formation may be an elder or the head of the sect. Qian represents the sky, and the stronger the Qian Gua, the more powerful the sword formation will be.
And where does the "Li Gua" come from?
Because among the eight sword marks just now, Qian has three connected, Kun has six broken, Zhen is an inverted bowl, Gen is an inverted bowl, Li is empty in the middle, Kan is full in the middle, Dui is missing at the top, and Xun is broken at the bottom. Li hexagram is the clearest.
Li represents fire.
His strongest sword is Lihuo.
How to break the fire of Li?
It must be cold water.
The sword that Yin Biyue was most familiar with was the Hanshui Sword.
He simply raised the dead branch and the heat wave stopped.
An extremely pure chill emanated from the branches.
The disciples in the audience were surprised to find that the wind was actually cool!
The elder of Baopu Sect frowned fiercely, the disciples of Cangya Mountain were filled with surprise, and in the direction of Qinglu Sword Sect, Zhongshan's pupils shrank slightly.
The Yecheng priest always had a smiling face.
Many people thought that the battle was coming to an end, but it was just beginning.
It was simply because Yin Biyue raised his wrist and started to move.
He Lai's expression remained unchanged, and his sword force had been pushed to the extreme! A cluster of fire appeared at the tip of the sword!
He anticipated Yin Biyue's change, so he would not give his opponent even one more second.
But within a second, Yin Biyue's sword was already in place.
The strongest cold water sword, the fastest stepping on mountains and rivers!
A sudden chill!
A thin layer of frost condensed on the stone platform in midsummer!
But how can this be enough? !
His sword was in the Kan position which was opposite to the Li hexagram.
Everyone saw that the dead branch was clearly stabbing towards the flame on the opponent's sword, and it seemed that it was about to collide with the sword!
In the end, it miraculously fell on He Lai!
"laugh!……"
Extremely accurate!
It pierced straight into He Lai’s right shoulder!
The protective true energy of the barrier-breaking realm was pierced by a piece of dead branch.
He Lai maintained the posture of drawing the sword, but the flame on the sword suddenly went out, just like the dim light in his eyes.
He slowly bent down, trying hard not to show any pain, but eventually he coughed up blood.
The boiling blood fell on the ice, instantly burning two holes.
He looked at the ice and blood, and until now, he still didn't know why he lost.
It was obvious that before this, the opponent had only been fleeing in a panic under his sword.
How could there be a loophole in his Li Fire Hexagram?
Could it be that the other party knows more about Bagua Sword than I do?
This is impossible.
The disciples below the stage were completely silent.
Because of shock. This battle was full of twists and turns, completely breaking their previous cognition.
They had no idea how strong the sword intent would have to be to pierce through the protective true energy of the barrier.
The senior strong men in the stands were silent out of respect.
The rhythm of this battle was in Yin Biyue's hands from the beginning. However, he was willing to be suppressed by the opponent's sword force at first until he found a way to break the sword.
It is something worthy of respect that among the younger generation, there are young people who are so proficient in kendo.
Yin Biyue pulled out a dead branch, which was dripping with blood.
He Lai staggered and fell to his knees.
Then, the white-haired, cold-eyed boy asked,
"Why bother?"
After asking the question, he threw down the dead branch and walked off the stage.
Why bother?
This was the first sentence Yin Biyue had said since he took office.
There were only four words, but they included the name and surname, and hit the nail on the head. It was like a response to the other party's words "bad luck" when he first stood here.
He didn't say anything before, not because he had nothing to say, but because he felt it was unnecessary.
I'm here to defeat you, not to chat, and besides, we're not familiar with each other.
So there is no need to tell it to you, and there is no need to tell it to everyone.
I come to fight, and I break the sword to win, that's it.
