Daojun, start from Penglai foundation building

Chapter 96: A sword comes from the east to startle Hongying, and a Taoist goes to the west to Yonghua City ( words)

A dazzling green rainbow flew across the sky.

The sword light was already in front of me, and the whistling sound of thunder sounded in the distance.

The sword intent condensed in the sword light made Lin Dong feel as if he was in an ice cellar for a moment.

At this time, his whole body was covered with ice and cold, and he froze in place unable to resist. The movement of spiritual power in his body seemed to have briefly stagnated.

The sword's intention is to cut through nothing and destroy everything. One strike of the sword will destroy everything.

Lin Dong's heart was filled with turmoil.

He watched the Qinghong speeding towards him, and just when he thought he was certain to die, the Qinghong whizzed away while grazing his shoulder.

When the green rainbow flew through the air and flew away for an unknown distance, bursts of thunder exploded in Lin Dong's ears.

And in the area crossed by the green rainbow, the sharp sword intent lingered for a long time, and a deep sword mark appeared on the ground.

Lin Dong raised his eyes and saw that the entire top of Yuyang Mountain had been chopped open by a sword.

It's just that the sword light was too fast, so the top of the mountain seemed to be fine.

A breeze came from nowhere.

Click, click.
As if he had just come to his senses, the rocks cracked and the earth shook.

Everyone watched in horror as large chunks of the towering rocks slid off the top of Yuyang Mountain.

Rocks rolled down, dust flew, and the sound of the landslide was like thunder, making everyone feel depressed.

When the dust and fog dissipated, only half of the top of the mountain was left, and the cut surface was as smooth and flat as a mirror.

"This"

"This"

Only then did Lin Dong feel that he had regained consciousness in his hands and feet.

He turned around blankly and saw that Jiang Sheng was standing behind him with his hands behind his hands, looking at him with a smile.

"Who the hell are you?"

"Why is your swordsmanship so powerful even though your cultivation level is lower than mine?!"

"How did you do that sword move?"

"Why can you defeat my moves so easily?"

Lin Dong kept asking questions, as if he was venting his inner confusion and fear.

Jiang Sheng listened to Lin Dong's question quietly, and waited for Lin Dong to finish speaking as if venting his anger before replying:

"Although Pindao's cultivation level is lower than yours, Pindao's spiritual power is stronger than yours."

"And it's very easy to break your moves."

"The move that you use 10% of your spiritual energy to perform, Pindao only needs one-tenth of yours to exert the same power. Therefore, it is not surprising that Pindao only needs to use a little more spiritual energy to block your moves."

"As for swordsmanship, Pindao is not very powerful. That sword strike just now was just that Pindao swung the sword very quickly."

Listening to Jiang Sheng's answer, Lin Dong was stunned: "Swing the sword, fast?"

Jiang Sheng nodded.

Lin Dong was stunned on the spot, and after a long while he sighed sadly: "I thought I was a genius."

"The foundation of the Heavenly Way was established in the year of the weak crown. After the foundation was established, the Zi Mansion was opened in just ten years. Now that the year has passed, it is already the late stage of the Zi Mansion."

"I thought I was proud enough, but I never thought."

"Master Lin, don't belittle yourself." Jiang Sheng advised him warmly.

Lin Dong looked at Jiang Sheng in shock. He originally thought that Jiang Sheng was going to humiliate him. After all, he used to like this.

Jiang Sheng didn't care that the place was in a mess, and sat down cross-legged, minding his own business: "I have an old friend."

"His surname is Lin, and he also uses a knife. He is a good friend of Pindao. He must be strong-tempered and never give up in spite of all odds."

"He and Pindao were separated before. He heard that a talented swordsman named Lin appeared in the Lu Kingdom. Pindao thought it was him, but he never thought that he was an old friend."

As he said that, Jiang Sheng suddenly smiled: "Although I haven't met my old friend, meeting Mr. Lin is a worthwhile trip."

"Master Lin's abilities are earth-shaking. His swordsmanship and lightning skills are all extraordinary. With his ability, Master Lin is enough to be proud of himself and conquer the world."

"Compared to Mr. Lin, Pindao is nothing outstanding. He just travels to more places and meets more people."

"That's all."

Lin Dong was stunned for a moment, as if he had some insights.

Jiang Sheng continued: "Master Lin wants to use the masters on the Lu Kingdom's Heavenly Ranking to build his undefeated Taoist heart. He has a good idea."

"The poor Taoist secretly believes that the undefeated Taoist heart is not about being undefeated in every battle, but not being discouraged by defeat, and being able to fight again after defeat."

"Young master Lin, you might as well continue your travels and see more of the countries around here, and walk more, whether you win or lose."

"Go to the end, wait until the storm has passed, and go see him."

It was as if a thunderbolt exploded in Lin Dong's heart.

Thinking about the invincibility that I have been deliberately pursuing, and my increasingly arrogant attitude, my Taoist heart that pursues invincibility seems to have changed.

When did the change occur?

Was it when he defeated the top ten masters of the Lu Kingdom in his first appearance, shocking the audience with admiration, and countless daughters' families looking at him with admiration?
Is it the time when I have won consecutive battles and defeated almost all the top ten masters of the Lu Kingdom? Wherever I go, there are loess roads and clear water splashing on the streets. Everyone calls me a genius who is rare in a thousand years?
Is it when I went to challenge Zhan Lingfeng, the number one master on the Lu Kingdom Heavenly Ranking, with trepidation, but ended up being on a par with the opponent, and was praised by others for being on equal footing with the veteran master who had been famous for two hundred years at the age of 40?
It was the time when he showed his strength in three battles and became completely famous in the Lu Kingdom. People sang about his deeds in the streets and alleys, and countless people imitated him and paraded through the streets in splendid clothes and swords?
Or is it when he has defeated the top 100 people in the Lu Kingdom one by one along the way and become more and more arrogant to all the heroes in the world?
Thinking about himself, he became more and more arrogant, arrogant and underestimating the enemy. In the end, he even ignored his opponent and tried his best to humiliate his opponent to show his majesty.

Unknowingly, Lin Dong was already covered in cold sweat.

You don't know that you are on the road to a dead end, and you are still complacent. You are really losing your mind.

Lin Dong, who woke up, bowed deeply to Jiang Sheng: "Thank you, Taoist Priest, for your guidance. Lin Dong went astray and almost became possessed. Without Taoist Priest's guidance, I'm afraid he would have been doomed in the future."

"Pindao just said some of his own feelings. With Mr. Lin's talent and temperament, even without Pindao's idle words, he would have understood clearly. There is no need to thank him." Jiang Sheng said with a smile.

Lin Dong said, "No matter what, I would like to thank you for your kind words, Taoist Priest."

Jiang Sheng smiled and Shi Shiran stood up.

Sweeping away the dust around him with his hand, the Taoist turned and left.

Seeing Jiang Sheng about to leave, Lin Dong couldn't help but ask: "I dare to ask, sir, since you have traveled around the world, have you ever encountered an opponent who is far more powerful than yourself?"

Jiang Sheng paused: "Of course."

"Pindao met a real Jindan before."

Jin Dan Zhenren? !
Lin Dong quickly asked, "How did you survive this calamity, Taoist Priest?"

"Pindao was with his old friend who had the same surname as the young master at that time. The two of them worked together and happened to kill the golden elixir."

After saying that, Jiang Sheng flew away in the wind.

Looking at Jiang Sheng's leaving figure, Lin Dong froze on the spot: "The two of them worked together to kill the golden elixir?!"

"Zi Mansion's Counterattack against Golden Pill?"

The next day, a piece of news quickly spread in Yangshan County: Lin Dong, who had a series of victories that could be compared with Jin Qizhan Lingfeng, who was number one in the Heavenly Ranking, met a strange Taoist Priest on the top of Yuyang Mountain.

The Taoist priest allowed Lin Dong three moves and then defeated him with one sword.

The news quickly spread throughout Yangshan County, and then to all directions.

Countless people didn't believe the news the first time they heard it. Lin Dong, the running thunder and sharp sword, was already a monster enough.

Who is that strange Taoist priest who suddenly appears?
What makes people even more curious is, if that Taoist priest is really stronger than Lin Dong, will the number one spot on the list change that day?

After all, Zhan Lingfeng, who is now number one on the Heavenly Ranking, is only on par with Lin Dong.

However, since the battle at Yuyang Mountain, both Lin Dong and the mysterious Taoist Priest have lost their traces, and no one knows where they have gone.

No one came forward to explain the situation, and the authenticity of this news became a bit confusing.

As interested people unearthed, the only credible news was that, according to several disciples of the Lingjian Sect, the Taoist priest seemed to come from the Chu Kingdom.

The news stopped here.

Ten days later, on the Qianjiang River in the State of Lu, a cruise ship was sailing towards Xuecheng.

The Qianjiang River is the most important river among the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in the State of Lu.

The Qianjiang River stretches for tens of thousands of miles and has countless branches. It flows through half of the Lu State, connecting many important towns along the way, and connects with the capital of Lu State, Fengluo, and then flows into the East China Sea.

The importance of this river to the State of Lu is self-evident.

On the Qianjiang River, there are countless ships of all types every day.

There are those carrying tourists, some transporting goods, and there are also the river patrol naval warships of the Lu State and the high-rise ships of various sects and local forces, etc.

On the vast and vast river, thousands of sails competed, and thousands of boats competed for the current. The number of ships passing by reminded Jiang Sheng of the bustling and bustling Zhengdu.

"Taoist Master, is the scenery of the Qianjiang River magnificent?"

Lin Dong smiled and asked.

Jiang Sheng nodded: "Thousands of rivers flow back and flow eastward into the sea. The sunset over this long river is naturally magnificent."

Ever since he left Yangshan County that day, Jiang Sheng had been heading north, but he never expected that Lin Dong would catch up with him.

Lin Dong told Jiang Sheng that there will be a meeting of the Four Symbols in Xuecheng, and maybe Jiang Sheng will be interested.

The so-called Four Symbols refer to the four largest sects in the Lu Kingdom.

Feiyu Palace, Luanfeng Pavilion, Xiaoyao Valley and Xuanguang Palace.

These four sects are located in the southeast, northwest and four directions of Lu State, so they are also called the Four Symbols.

In the sect, there is not only Jindan Zhenren as the leader, but also the supreme elder in the Nascent Soul realm, who is extremely powerful and has a stable status.

Although these four sects are separated from each other, they have always been in communication with each other.

Therefore, they hold a battle of genius disciples between the four sects every thirty years, not only to see the quality of the newcomers in each sect, but also to determine the allocation of some resources.

After all, there are countless outputs of elixirs, spiritual materials, etc., and each sect has its own specialties. Although they are not in the eyes of Master Jindan, no one is willing to share them equally.

And it would be unseemly if the dignified Jindan Master ended up in person.

Therefore, it is better to let the disciples fight.

On the one hand, it maintains the fighting spirit of the disciples and cultivates the disciples' belonging to the sect; on the other hand, it also rationally allocates these resources that Jindan Master does not care about.

Whoever wins more will naturally get more points, and his own sect can also win glory.

Therefore, the battle between these four sects has always been quite exciting.

And sometimes elders from the Purple Mansion Realm would end up like this.

Jiang Sheng was really interested in this fight.

It's not that he wants to bully those disciples who are practicing Qi and building foundations, but he wants to take the opportunity to see the skills and methods of the four major Nascent Soul sects in Lu State, which can be regarded as enriching his horizons.

Ever since he suddenly had an epiphany and a flash of inspiration in that mountain stream, Jiang Sheng's mentality became more and more easy-going.

Since you are traveling around and experiencing different customs, why not go deep into them?

Qi, Wei, Chu, Zheng, and Lu were all great countries with thousands of miles of country and hundreds of millions of lives.

Countries spanning tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of miles from east to west, north to south, each one is a behemoth, and each country is extremely beautiful.

Savor the tastes of the world and travel through natural mountains and rivers.

After Jiang Sheng relaxed his mind, he changed his appearance, covering up his original appearance and his level of cultivation. He looked around like an ordinary person.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Sheng chatted with Song Changge and others in an easy-going manner, watching them become disgraced.

Otherwise, Jiang Sheng would not have paid attention to these Qi-training monks before, let alone the fight between Dongfang Hao and Lin Dong, or talked so much to Lin Dong.

"I have also traveled through the lower reaches of the mountains and rivers of Lu State. This Xuecheng is a majestic giant capital like Fengluo, the capital of Lu State."

"People in the State of Lu say that the State of Lu has two capitals, Xuecheng in the south and Fenghuo in the north."

"Xuecheng is located in the south of the State of Lu. It has mountains, rivers, clouds and rain, beautiful scenery and countless graces, so ordinary people also call it Yonghua City."

Lin Dong talked about his impression of Xuecheng, and Jiang Sheng listened quietly. Not long after, a towering city standing on the riverside appeared in the distance.

It was indeed a huge thing. Although the city wall was only a few dozen feet high, the pavilions and pavilions in the city were quite spectacular.

This big city stands on the riverside, like a coiled dragon, handling countless cars and boats, and on the bridges, there is an endless stream of tourists and merchants.

In the big city that accommodates tens of millions of creatures, the aura of human nature rises to the sky. It is indeed a prosperous place comparable to the national capital.

"This Xuecheng is really magnificent." Jiang Sheng chuckled.

"Taoist Priest, after I've sent you to Xuecheng, I'm going to Fengluo," Lin Dong said.

Jiang Sheng asked: "Master Lin still wants to challenge Zhan Lingfeng, who was number one on the list that day?"

Lin Dong nodded: "The Taoist Master's words woke me up and benefited me a lot. This time I went to Fengluo for the final battle with Zhan Lingfeng."

"Then, I will travel to the State of Zheng, then to the State of Chu, then to the State of Wei, then north to Zhao, Yan, then to Qi, and finally return to the State of Lu."

After saying that, Lin Dong smiled and said: "After traveling to various countries, I don't know when or what month I will be able to see the Taoist Master again."

"If I think about it, maybe it was after Mr. Lin realized his true nature and forged the golden elixir." Jiang Sheng said with a smile.

Lin Dong laughed loudly: "Then thanks to Taoist Master's great blessing, maybe after traveling to various countries in the lower reaches, I can really achieve the high-grade golden elixir."

"Taoist Priest, Xuecheng is ahead of us. From now on, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. I hope to meet Taoist Priest again one day. Then I will definitely compete with Taoist Priest again."

Jiang Sheng nodded slightly: "When the time comes, I will sweep the bed to greet you."

After getting off the cruise ship, I watched the ship go north, gradually disappearing on the vast Qianjiang River, blending into the light and shadow.

"Xilulu."

With a neigh, Fan Yunju rubbed Jiang Sheng's arm.

Jiang Sheng chuckled, turned around and mounted his horse.

"Let's go into the city."
