Time and space in the heavens

Chapter 163 The Enlightenment of Swordsmanship in Mount Huashan (610)

Hearing what Ouyang Feng said, everyone in the inn had a hint of fear in their eyes.

In the past few days, they had stayed in the same inn as Ouyang Feng, and they had seen the vicious methods of the owner of the White Camel Mountain from the Western Regions.

While eating and resting, it was common for people to be assassinated. They were either attacked by venomous snakes or sneak-attacked by drugged people.

However, Ouyang Feng acted extremely cautiously. Even if they all knew that it was Ouyang Feng who did it, they could not catch him at all.

This man's martial arts skills were extremely high. Although everyone's martial arts skills were not inferior to his, no matter who it was, they were afraid that even if they defeated Ouyang Feng, their own vitality would inevitably be severely damaged.

There is a high probability that he has no connection with the Nine Yin Manual, so he can only suppress his anger for the time being, and wait until the sword debate in Huashan to settle the score with Ouyang Feng.

Huang Yaoshi pressed the jade flute with his hand, behaved smartly, and said in a strange way: "Yes, we will gather together today and wait until tomorrow to compete at the top of Huashan Mountain."

As he spoke, he raised the tea cup in front of him and gestured to the others: "Everyone, please."

Before the war, drinking was just a recipe for death.

Therefore, everyone chose to have tea instead of wine!
  "Please." Everyone raised the tea cups one after another, and the seven cups touched each other far away in the void. They were obviously not close, but they made a crisp sound like something real.

Snapped!
  A clear and crisp sound echoed in the inn and fell into everyone's ears, causing Duan Zhixing's four guards and Wang Chongyang's two disciples to tremble slightly.

Gum!

………………

The next day, the sky became brighter.

Outside the small town of Huayin, the officials in the government who had been well prepared had drawn up the route, and countless government officials were arranged in all directions to maintain order.

Someone even took out an incense burner, with a slender incense candle inserted in the burner. Although it was not lit, an alluring aroma was already filling the air.

This incense candle is specially made. Once lit, it can burn for exactly three hours, neither a moment longer nor a moment shorter.

On Mount Huashan, several senior martial artists who had already rushed to the mountain would light the incense candles on the mountain at the same moment.

tread! tread! tread! …

The sound of crisp footsteps sounded, and even the most disorderly people in the world would never dare to be careless in this context.

The sky was just bright, and the Golden Crow had not yet risen. Countless people from all walks of life who came one after another walked out of the inns and houses and headed outside Huayin City.

Inside the Yuelai Inn, the seven masters who had already regarded each other as rivals stood up almost in no particular order and each took out their personal weapons.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
  The sound of crisp footsteps echoed in the inn. Everyone looked at each other with a hint of tacit understanding in their expressions, and they walked out of the inn one after another.

With a cynical smile on his lips, Zhu Hefeng dropped a small piece of gold on the counter.

Carrying a dark iron heavy sword weighing more than eighty kilograms on his back, his expression was indescribably calm and at ease.

The seven masters turned out of the inn. Each of them exuded a dignified aura and merged into the vast crowd of pedestrians. The people around looked at them with a bit of shock in their expressions.

A master has the magnanimity and demeanor of a master!
  Swish!
  There were countless people interested in participating in the Huashan sword debate. When everyone arrived outside the city, although a considerable number of them had already withdrawn, at a glance, there were still hundreds of people, large and small.

Each one of them is a well-known figure in the world. Zhu Hefeng and other seven masters stood among the crowd. Even though they were surrounded by human figures, others kept a distance of three or four points from them, intentionally or unintentionally.

He may seem inconspicuous among the crowd, but in the eyes of true masters, he stands out from the crowd. The steps of the seven masters seemed slow but fast. Their movements seemed slight, but they headed straight out of the city.

Countless people were passed over by them without even understanding what was happening. When they arrived outside the city, the seven masters were already in front of the crowd.

At this moment, a ray of soft sunlight also spread across the sky and the earth, and the Golden Crow, which released infinite power, rose and began to dispel the fog accumulated during the night.

On the road leading to Mount Huashan, as early as a few days ago, the officials had sealed off the upper and lower reaches of Mount Huashan to prevent anyone from trying to fish in troubled waters.

At this time, the road to Huashan was blocked by iron chains. In front of the iron chains, countless government officials stood upright, with a huge incense burner and a small stick-like incense candle standing.

On one side, on a Taishi chair, an old official with a goat's beard took out a fire knife and flint, and tiptoed toward the incense burner.

Click!

There was a crisp sound, sparks burst out, and the incense burner was lit. Among the government officials who had been prepared, someone took out the key and opened the iron rope that blocked the way up the mountain.

"The auspicious time has come, the Huashan sword debate has begun!" The goat-like official ducked to one side and made way for the path up the mountain.

Several government officials stepped forward and moved the extremely heavy incense burner to one side.

In an instant, the climbing path is clear, and you only need to give the order to go up the mountain. Countless Jianghu people saw that the road ahead was open, and their eyes showed a bit of passion, but no one dared to move unless they announced the start.

For the sake of Jiuyin Manual and the reputation of being the best master in the world, even people who are accustomed to being undisciplined in the world have to suppress their temper and abide by order.

The goat official slowly drank a cup of hot tea, and then loudly announced the start of the Huashan sword debate.

"here we go!"

"Hurry up, we'll be on Mount Huashan within three hours!"

"Why are you squeezing? Get out of my way!"

……

After giving the order, the crowd paused for a moment, and soon there was a roar. Hundreds of martial arts masters, large and small, all rushed out and rushed straight towards the top of Mount Huashan.

Hundreds of masters showed off their unique skills, such as swallows copying water three times, catching cicadas in eight steps, and cloud and dragon movements. They all performed at extremely fast speeds.

In an instant, if you look down from a high altitude, you can see the layers of human figures at the foot of Huashan Mountain, like hundreds of ants.

Wow!
  Hundreds of people swarmed out, all rushing towards the top of Mount Huashan. The seven masters also separated tacitly at the same moment.

Zhu Hefeng took hold of his wife's cold soft pancreas, and both husband and wife performed a unique skill. Their feet seemed slow but were actually fast.

In an instant, they turned into two phantoms and headed straight towards the top of Mount Huashan. Many people in the world only see a blur in front of their eyes and can no longer capture their figures.

On the other side, Wang Chongyang and others also showed off their skills and headed straight towards the top of the mountain.

After climbing Mount Huashan for more than three hours, everyone who stayed here was extremely confident in their own martial arts, so for a while, although the crowd was scattered, there was no obvious gap.

Hundreds of people passed through the Xiyue Temple at the foot of Mount Huashan in almost no particular order, heading straight towards the first pass in Mount Huashan - the Golden Lock Pass!
