Chapter 38 Peerless Sword Fight (2)
The bonfire blazed and blazed.
"My surname is Qin and my name is Yi. I don't know what to call Xiongtai?" The handsome young man said with a smile on his face. He didn't feel that he was superior to others because he was the core disciple of Xuanzhen Palace, and he was different from that woman.
Of course, with the strength of Xuanzhen Hall, it is very difficult to become its core disciple. At the very least, one must have the talent and potential of the first-line geniuses in Tianjiang Mansion.
"Chen Zong, a disciple of the Zongheng Sword Sect in Tianjiang Mansion." Chen Zong smiled lightly.
"Brother Chen." Qin Yi clasped his fists in salute, his expression remained the same, he was courteous.
But the woman next to Qin Yi showed a trace of contempt when Chen Zong mentioned the disciples of Zongheng Jianzong.
Many people know about the four major sects of Tianjiang Mansion, and even know that they are all low-level sects, which belong to the relatively weak ranks. Compared with Xuanzhen Palace, the gap is immeasurable.
Not to mention that Brother Qin is the core disciple of Xuanzhen Hall, even if he is only a core disciple of the Jade Sect of the low-rank sect in Xuanzhen Mansion, he is much better than the other party.
Chen Zong naturally saw the contempt in the woman's eyes, but he didn't care, let alone pay any attention to it.
Zonghengjianzong is very strong compared to most of the forces, but compared with other high-level sects, it will appear weak. Compared with other high-level sects, at least one person who is strong at the fourth level of the extreme realm is required to sit in the command, and Zonghengjianzong is just right. Just met the criteria.
When people are strong, the sect is strong. Conversely, the sect is strong and people are strong. This is a mutual process.
Qin Yi's cultivation is at the limit of the ninth level of the True Martial Realm, but it is not clear how much combat power it is, but at least it has reached a three-star level, while the woman's cultivation is at the beginning of the eighth level of the True Martial Realm, but she is probably about the same age as himself. Cultivation, it proves that the other party's talent is indeed very good.
"Brother Chen also practices swords, but he doesn't know how to use swords?" After changing the subject, Qin Yi's eyes fell on the twin swords around Chen Zong's waist again.
"Some gains, but there are still big shortcomings." Chen Zong responded.
"Brother Qin is one of the best sword masters among the core disciples of Xuanzhen Hall, and the realm of swordsmanship has already reached the second stage of the unity of body and sword." The woman in a green shirt snorted and said, full of pride and showing off: " If you have a few good words, for the sake of the nodding friendship, let Brother Qin give you some pointers, it will benefit you a lot."
"Brother Chen, sister Fu is outspoken, but not malicious,
Don't take it personally. "Qin Yi quickly explained, but he did not deny the meaning contained in Lin Fu's words, that is, he believed that his swordsmanship realm was far better than Chen Zong, and he was qualified to give advice to the other party. If Chen Zong took the initiative to speak, Qin Yi will not be stingy to give some pointers.
In Qin Yi's view, although the Zongheng Sword Sect is a sect that masters swords, it is too weak and its level is too low. After all, the strongest in the sect is only at the fourth level of the Extreme Human Realm, and it is far from being able to compete with Xuanzhen Palace. Compared with such behemoths.
Xuanzhen Hall does not focus on sword practice, but there are many masters of sword practice, and there are also swordsmanship classics and inheritances. There is even a master of swordsmanship in the earth spirit realm sitting in the town. There are still some gaps, but it is definitely not comparable to a weak low-rank sect like the vertical and horizontal sword sect.
Shallow water can't raise a real dragon, and Lin Xiao can't keep a phoenix. For the same reason, the sect is not strong enough, and the foundation is not enough to inherit enough. Even if there is an outstanding talent, it will be limited by various acquired conditions.
"The second level of unity of body and sword, brother Qin is very capable." Chen Zong didn't care about Lin Fu's underestimation, but responded with a light smile, but he didn't have the slightest intention to ask the other party for advice on sword skills.
If he didn't take the initiative to speak, Qin Yi could only secretly regret that the other party missed an opportunity, and didn't intend to speak actively.
Chen Zong's calm appearance made Lin Fu snort in dissatisfaction.
It's not that Lin Fu has a problem with Chen Zong, but that she admires Qin Yi too much, and thinks that Qin Yi is the best, so seeing other people's mentality is different, thinking that they are not as good as Qin Yi, and seeing that she has already made a point. , but this person is not enlightened, and he pretends to be indifferent, which is annoying.
"Could it be that Brother Chen is going to Jinghong Mansion to participate in the Wushuang sword fight?" Qin Yi changed the subject without embarrassment.
"I want to see it." Chen Zong smiled slightly.
"It's just right, I'm also going to participate in the Wushuang sword fight." Qin Yi said with a smile: "It's better for us to go together."
"Brother Qin participated in the Wushuang sword fight three years ago, and he was ranked seventh." Lin Fu said like a proud peacock.
"Brother Qin is really capable, but I'm used to being alone." Chen Zong rejected the other party's invitation, then got up to leave, and left overnight.
"Hmph, I don't have any vision at all." Seeing Chen Zong leave, Lin Fu snorted coldly and said to Qin Yi, "Brother Qin, if you took the initiative to point him out just now, I'm sure he'll be overwhelmed with admiration."
"Don't take it lightly." Qin Yi smiled. If he took the initiative to give pointers, he might not be able to do anything good. Instead, he would make the other person feel annoyed and feel that he was showing off.
As everyone knows, it was Qin Yi himself who missed an opportunity. If he took the initiative to ask for a discussion, maybe Chen Zong would give him some advice.
However, he would never believe that Chen Zong's swordsmanship was far superior to his.
The third realm and the second realm seem to be one level apart, but there is a huge difference. It is very, very difficult to improve. For most sword practitioners, it is like a natural barrier.
In the dim night, Chen Zong's figure flew past like lightning, and quickly headed towards the direction of Jinghong Mansion.
Not long after, Qin Yi and Lin Fu put out the bonfire and set off.
To participate in the Wushuang sword fight, you must register in advance. Only after registering and filing can you be eligible to participate. If you miss the registration time, there will be no accommodation, unless the background is very important.
Chen Zong didn't know when the deadline for registration would be, so he could only arrive as soon as possible and report his name first.
By daybreak, Chen Zong had already flew very far away at an astonishing speed, but the territory of Wanluo Mansion was vast, and it was difficult to cross it in a short time.
When he was tired, Chen Zong would stop to rest for a period of time, eat something by the way, and continue on his way after resting.
Along the way, Chen Zong also met many people with long swords on their waists or on their backs. There were men, women and children, all of them went to Jinghong Mansion in the same direction. In addition, there were many people who were not practicing swords. Warriors are also going in the same direction.
These people are either going to participate in the Wushuang sword fight, or watching it.
A few days later, Chen Zong arrived outside the ruins of Vientiane.
The Vientiane Ruins are at the junction of the Wanluo Mansion and the Jinghong Mansion. If you want to reach the Jinghong Mansion as soon as possible, it is undoubtedly the best to pass through the Vientiane Ruins, but you don’t need to go deep into the Vientiane Ruins, just pass by the edge .
According to rumors, there is great danger in the depths of the ruins of Vientiane. Even a strong person in the extreme human realm can enter it, and he may die if he is not careful.
Chen Zong's purpose is to go to Jinghong Mansion to participate in the Wushuang sword fight, so naturally he will not go deep into the ruins of Vientiane.
The ruins are worthy of the name of the ruins. At first glance, decayed and blackened wood, rusted iron, broken and mottled porcelain, and ruined walls are everywhere. Countless messy things are scattered around, which looks barren.
The ruins of Vientiane are very large, and its edge is even more vast. It took Chen Zong a full half a day to cross it, and he did not encounter any danger during the period.
Stepping into the territory of Jinghong Mansion, Chen Zong seemed to be able to feel the difference in breath.
Different regions have different customs and customs, and also have different humanistic atmosphere, which is a kind of precipitation.
Perhaps the sects and warriors of Jinghong Mansion mainly practice swords, and because of the strong aura of swordsmanship, the dust floating in the air is also different from other lands, with a trace of edge.
At the first level of Zhaoxuan Realm, Chen Zong could hardly feel this difference, but at the second level, he could feel it, it was very wonderful, and he felt as if he would be intoxicated in it.
Along the way, he heard a lot of information about Wushuang Sword Fighting, so Chen Zong also knew a little bit. The registration place for Wushuang Sword Fighting is in Jinghong City, and there is a special place opened up.
The Wushuang Sword Fight is a grand event held every three years in the Jinghong Mansion. During this period of time, people from the Jinghong Sword Sect, other sects, and the royal family will maintain order in the Jinghong Mansion. It can be said that this period of time is the safest.
Unimpeded, Chen Zong arrived outside Jinghong City.
Wanluo City uses black as the main color, which gives people a solemn and cold feeling. Jinghong City uses navy blue as the main color, which not only has the vicissitudes of time, but also has a light atmosphere, and also A sharp breath can be felt from some corners, like the edge of a sword.
The city gate was wide open, but there were several times more guards guarding the city gate than usual. Each of them carried a long sword on their waist, carrying a fierce and fierce aura on their bodies, and their sharp eyes swept across the faces of every passerby.
Chen Zong followed the crowd and strode into the Jinghong City Gate. The crowd was very dense, and most of them were moving in the same direction, but Chen Zong's figure was like a fish as he nimbly shuttled past one person after another.
The top priority is to register first, and then look for a place to live after the registration is completed.
After a while, Chen Zong stopped in front of a building. A red flag fluttered beside the building, on which was written the application for Wushuang Sword Fighting. There was already a long queue in front of the building, at least hundreds of people. All of them were carrying long swords, and they were warriors who were going to participate in the Wushuang sword fight.
Chen Zong also lined up the team in order, and slowly moved forward with the snake-like people.
Two quarters of an hour later, Chen Zong walked to the registration table.
"Name, age, cultivation base and history." The person sitting on the edge of the table did not look up, but said very skillfully, the words were urgent and fast.
"Chen Zong, twenty-five years old, late eighth level of True Martial Realm, core disciple of the Zongheng Sword Sect of Tianjiang Mansion." Chen Zong responded calmly.
The other party quickly registered, and picked up a gray wooden sign and handed it to Chen Zong.
"Take this wooden sign and go in for the assessment."
After receiving the wooden sign, Chen Zong strode into the building.
