Although people were sent to follow the two most prominent people that day, what they found out was only a sword cultivator from an orthodox and famous family, and another casual cultivator with a chaotic lifestyle who might be a fox demon. How could her Jun Xuan possibly be hanging out with a fox demon? Ye Ci Ke frowned, feeling very uncomfortable. Her Xuan Yang Pearl was in Jun Xuan's body. He had promised to be her Xuan Yang Pearl in this life. If someone else took it... It seems that we still have to use the Ten Thousand Swords Formation, and integrate the magic of the Divine Pan and Ghost Calculation into it, so that we can cover the entire Ten Thousand Swords City in an instant... Chapter 103 It's a real loss to sell this game to you for free As soon as Liu Yuan went downstairs, he saw Cui Ting walking in with a tall and strong young man downstairs of the inn. At first, he was a little surprised why Cui Ting went out so early in the morning, and wondered if he was an innkeeper who was responsible for attracting business. Then he recognized the identity of the young man. Although there are some differences from the 3D modeling in the game, such as the details of the clothes, it can still be seen that this young man is the main character in the main storyline of the original Wanjian City. The mortal swordsmith Geng Qi. There is another protagonist, who is naturally the direct disciple of the current Sword Pavilion Master Zuo Youhuai - Mo Ying.
The character played by the player joins in as a participant in the sword-ringing segment of the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Competition. At this time, the player has just come out of the Novice Village and has generally already established a foundation or is even close to forming a pill, and his level is just about the same. But in fact, according to his original identity, he should still be recovering his cultivation, but has not returned to the sect yet. After the sword ceremony ended, the player was noticed by those forces, and then the relevant personnel of the "sect" sent people to find him. Therefore, the player "returns to the mountain gate" and starts the quest line within the sect. Anyway, playing games will not allow you to be idle... Of course, you can also start a life profession, clear the daily tasks at ordinary times, and follow the main line when you have time, generally carrying out the professional quest line of the life profession. After all, as a phenomenal online game, the degree of completion of "Shangyang" is so high that it is unimaginable, and it is not surprising to develop the characters into any form. Players can even play it as an action-adventure, management, puzzle, parkour or music game. Selling this game to you for free is really a Some people also commented that this game is "a game that is ahead of its time and could not possibly appear in the 21st century." But at least... Liu Yuan now feels that this game is really not easy. He turned his gaze to Cui Ting and Geng Qi who walked in. It is normal for Geng Qi to appear in Wanjian City at this time. It would be strange if he was not there. However, Cui Ting exists completely outside the plot, so it is very strange that he meets Geng Qi. At this time, the Ming Sword Platform had just been opened. Although there were still three days until the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Conference, and the Ming Sword segment, as the finale event, had almost ten days left, there was more than enough time to register. But people have such an inertia that they must strive to be the first, even to the extent of signing up... otherwise it seems that they are not proactive enough and their attitude is not serious enough. At a time like this, there might be big guys in Wanjian City secretly observing us. If we are not proactive, we will be lowering our reputation. So now most people in the inn are heading out, preparing to sign up in a lively manner. Cui Ting's move against the tide is quite eye-catching. “Brother Cui, what’s going on with you…?” Liu Yuan pretended to look over with confusion and asked. Cui Ting's expression brightened, he walked over and said, "Are you going to Mingjiantai? It just so happened that I saw Geng Qi being robbed on the road, so I rescued him. He is going to participate in the Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword Conference, you can take him with you." Being robbed hasn't changed... Liu Yuan came down the stairs, muttering to himself as he walked towards the two men. The people next to him looked at each other in bewilderment. This Geng Qi was clearly a mortal, and he actually wanted to participate in the "Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword" event?
Yan Guanlin laughed sarcastically on the spot: "I'm afraid he hasn't woken up yet." Not only them, but also the immortal cultivators passing by showed incredible expressions. Liu Yuan touched the hammer in his arms, pretending to be in deep thought, and said: "Since he has no cultivation, then he should not be participating in the Ming Sword Competition, but a real Tide Watching and Sword Listening Competition... Is he a swordsmith?" Cui Ting nodded and praised: "Brother Jiang Feng is indeed very responsive. I used my own intuition as a sword cultivator to discover that Geng Qi's sword box is not simple. After asking, I found out that he was not going to participate in the Ming Sword, but the Listening Sword." Geng Qi, who seemed a little embarrassed in a crowded place, scratched his hair, smiled stiffly, and then said firmly: "Yes, I want to participate in the Sword Pavilion Competition as a swordsmith." Isn't Cui Ting saying that Yan Guanlin is slow to react... Although the cultivators present were all misled by their inertia of thinking, he was the only one who spoke out in ridicule. This might be the instinct of a nitpicker. Liu Yuan glanced at Yan Guanlin and saw that his face turned green. He immediately sneered, "Watching the Tide and Listening to the Sword is a competition for swordsmiths within the Sword Pavilion. It is not like the Ming Sword Competition which is open to the outside world. Not every cat or dog can participate." Geng Qi said more firmly: "My master was a nine-star swordsmith in Jian Ge. He left Jian Ge because of some things, but he was never removed from the list. This time I want to recreate the glory of my master!" Yan Guanlin: "……＆%￥＆*" Yan Guanlin was so angry that he couldn't speak. He tightly grasped the handrail of the stairs, took a deep breath, turned around, flicked his sleeves and walked away: "What kind of sword can a mortal forge!" Cui Ting shook his head and said, "I don't think swordsmiths necessarily have to rely on their skills." Ling Yu was suspicious and asked, "How is it possible to forge a high-level magical tool without the support of cultivation?" Everyone else had already left, and Liu Yuan introduced Lingyu and Cui Ting separately. Lingyu was stunned. She had never expected that the new referee who was being discussed yesterday was right in front of her, and that he was calling a Foundation Establishment cultivator a brother... Lingyu suddenly had some doubts about Liu Yuan. This man was too lucky. He saved a fox demon in the Nascent Soul stage and became friends with him. He also had similar interests with a big shot in the Refining Void stage and became friends regardless of age difference. But when I think about how I couldn't resist the furry temptation and how I had a great time chatting with him, it seems natural. I won't feel uncomfortable at all when I'm with this person. Cui Ting briefly explained what had happened. It turned out that he had heard from the cultivators who lived in the same dormitory say in the morning that Qinglian Jianzi was currently staying at Qingpingju and had been invited to be a judge. He was going to find someone to arrange another time for the challenge. “……”Liu Yuan could only smile now. Cui Ting first left a message with the proprietress, and on the way to look for him, he met Geng Qi, rescued him, and asked Liu Yuan to take him away. Cui Ting sighed again, "I stayed in this inn for only one night, but I benefited a lot. I won't say more. I'll go find someone. You guys go to Mingjiantai first. If you have anything to say, just inject your spiritual power into this communication jade, and I will be able to sense it." Liu Yuan took the sword-shaped communication jade from Cui Ting, nodded to express his gratitude, waved his hand and watched the other party leave. He thought that his appearance had completely changed and his aura was hidden, so even if Cui Ting stood in front of Shen Sifan again, no one should notice anything. "Geng Qi? Then you can come with us to Mingjiantai. The entrance to the Sword Pavilion is also there. But it may be a little difficult for you. The road to Shu is difficult, as difficult as climbing to the sky... The terrain is too steep, and you may not be able to get up by yourself. I will fly your sword to give you a ride when the time comes." Liu Yuan looked at one of the protagonists of the original plot. The hammer in his arms had fully woken up. He jumped onto his shoulder in a few seconds and then lay down groaning. Send Geng Qi up, this was originally one of the tasks called [The Road to Shu is Difficult]. This series of tasks is quite simple, with basically no combat plots. In the end, Geng Qi wins, and then Mo Ying, the son of the Sword Pavilion Master, becomes enraged and decides to take action. That part ended with a plot-killing scene. The leader of the Sword Pavilion came out personally, knocked Mo Ying unconscious, and gave Geng Qi a sword he had forged. He made an exception and directly admitted him as an elder of the Sword Pavilion. In the end, Mo Ying was so ashamed that he came to apologize and became friends with Geng Qi. Chapter 104 Wait, Don't Panic
Geng Qi thanked the two seniors repeatedly, and then said hesitantly: "My master said that a favor must be repaid... But I have nothing. If necessary, I can forge a sword for each of you. That senior said that his sword is his life weapon that he has nurtured since childhood. No other sword can compare to it. I don't know how to thank him." "If you continue to stick to your ideals and win the championship of the Guanchao Tingjian Competition, you will naturally repay him." Liu Yuan said casually, "He must be impressed by your fighting for your ideals again." Geng Qi was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Yes! I will definitely not let him down!" Liu Yuan thought to himself that he was really the same reckless and passionate young man as in the game. Lingyu turned around and said, "Why do you seem so sure that he will win the championship?" "I'm not sure." Liu Yuan said seriously, "I believe in the power of ideals. Moreover, even Senior Cui trusts him and asked me to take him to Mingjiantai. He must have his reasons." He actually read the script... The original reward for completing the entire mission was also a sword forged by Geng Qi. It was a purple-grade weapon that matched the attributes of the player's character. Although they both looked like ordinary long swords, their attributes were completely different. Ling Yu nodded: "That makes sense... But Geng Qi, which swordsmith is your master? It seems that there have been less than thirty nine-star swordsmiths in the Sword Pavilion throughout history, and the current Lord of Wanjian City is one of them." Geng Qi said honestly: "It's Ji Zhai, the 23rd nine-star swordsmith in the Sword Pavilion." Ling Yu was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized: "It turned out to be the swordsmith who was in love with the previous generation of the Xuanyin family's patriarch. I heard that he did leave the Sword Pavilion and disappeared without a trace. I didn't expect that he retired to the mountains and forests and accepted disciples." Geng Qi scratched his head: "Master's wish is to return to Jian Ge again to prove that feelings in the world are far more important than cultivation... So Master didn't teach me to practice, he only taught me forging." Lingyu blinked, but still felt stunned. How could one forge a magical weapon without any cultivation? However, both Cui Ting and Liu Yuan did not seem to care about it. Instead, they were full of confidence... It cannot be said that they were full of confidence, but they did not find it incredible. Liu Yuan pointed at the sword case behind Geng Qi: "Senior Cui just said that his sword case is not simple." Geng Qi touched the bottom of the heavy sword box with his backhand and said, "Well, this is the Soul Forging Box that my master spent all his life forging. Even if you don't have any cultivation, you can still forge it." This thing is simply a magical artifact. There are three main skills. One is [Burning Materials and Beautiful Jade] which can directly melt all materials below the Void Refining Stage, one is [Blue Sky, My Heart] which can endow the sword with soul, and the remaining one is [Sword in the Box] which can give it form. Although I don’t know what the principle is, it’s very mysterious anyway. The "Sword Master" Ji Zhai later became the first ten-star swordsmith in the history of Jiange with the help of the Soul-Forging Box. Some players have speculated based on clues that Ji Zhai melted his own soul into the soul-casting box. To put it simply, it was not the box that was forging, but Ji Zhai himself was the box. If you think about it this way, it’s really a bit terrifying. But it also makes sense... Ji Zhai was in love with the predecessor of the Xuanyin family, and both of them ended up living alone. His obsession must have reached the point of paranoia, so it was reasonable for him to do such a crazy thing. Lingyu looked at the sword box with surprise, and his eyes changed. As expected, he felt a hint of sword intent contained in it... It was clearly just a sword box, but it seemed to be filled with countless swords. "Then I must look forward to watching the tide and listening to the sword this time." Lingyu smiled encouragingly. No matter what, the fact that a mortal is challenging the swordsmith of the Sword Pavilion is worth looking forward to. The three of them soon arrived at the Mingjian Platform in Wanjian City.
A high platform made entirely of black iron stands between the city wall and the tall green mountains behind it. Chains extend to the plank road between the cliffs, connecting to a huge sword on the platform. "Rumble..." Behind Mingjiantai is the Yuxue Mountain Range, and the roar of the Bailong River is as close as thunder. You can't feel it in the city, but you can hear it clearly at Mingjiantai. It's more than a hundred times more spectacular than in the game... Liu Yuan was amazed and looked up at the Mingjian Platform and the steep cliffs behind it. The cliffs on both sides were thousands of feet high and the tops could not be seen at a glance. Countless chains could be vaguely seen on the left and right, and the mountains were shrouded in clouds and mist, which made people feel horrified just by looking at it. From time to time, you can see some tiny stones falling from great heights. This is the north of Wanjian City. Beyond it is the Shu Kingdom in the mortal world. This Longmen Mountain runs across from east to west, with 72 peaks stretching and undulating, shaped like a sharp sword, piercing the sky. The Bailong River running through the north and south cuts it in half, making the cliffs face each other and extremely steep. Later, roads and passes were artificially opened up, and cliffs were chiseled and beams were built along the roads, forming a dangerous and narrow passage called the Shu Road. Later, the mountain gate of the top sect [Jian Ge] composed of swordsmiths was built. Jiange occupies the nine peaks of Longmen Mountain. It is built by linking iron chains to connect nine overhead pavilions. The numerous iron chains span the high and steep peaks, forming a cable bridge over the Bailong River that is difficult for birds to cross. During the annual Tide Watching and Sword Listening Conference, hundreds of sword-making furnaces built on the cliffs of the Sword Pavilion are opened at the same time. The smoke rolled like ink and the blazing fire billowed, roasting the iron chains as red as blood. They collided with the river water and the sea tide, making a sound like thunder. The resulting white mist stretched for hundreds of miles, making people seem to see a white dragon rising into the sky. At the same time, thousands of swords rang at the same time, making it spectacular to the extreme. This is the grand spectacle of watching the tide and listening to the sword. Later, the people of Jiange added various formations to this Shu Road, which became a barrier for this sword-themed sect. But most of the time, only a small part of these formations are opened as a test for the disciples within the sect. At this moment, the Mingjian Stage was crowded with people, all of them were immortal cultivators who came to register. Lingyu was wearing the robe of Yuxu Taoism, which made him particularly conspicuous among the crowd. These immortal cultivators consciously made way for him and then cast strange looks at Liu Yuan and Geng Qi. Liu Yuan stopped in front of the Mingjian Platform and said, "Master Lingyu, I will take Geng Qi to the Jian Pavilion. You go and sign up first." Lingyu thought that since he had Cui Ting's communication jade as a token of trust, it shouldn't be a big deal, so he nodded and agreed. Liu Yuan took Geng Qi to the Mingjian stage and said, "Don't panic later." Lingyu felt something was wrong when he heard this. He suddenly reacted, his pupils shrank, and he turned around suddenly: "Wait, where are you going to take him to Jiange???" "The Shu Road." Liu Yuan's voice had drifted away. Ling Yu looked up blankly, watching Liu Yuan grabbing Geng Qi and landing on the plank road above Mingjiantai. "Crack..." The sound of a rotating mechanism suddenly rang out, and stones fell from the plank road. The Sword Pavilion disciple on the Mingjian stage below turned around in surprise, and then shouted: "Someone has entered the formation!" Chapter 105 Bullshit! "What?" Several disciples from Jiange who were in charge of registration were confused when they heard this. Then they looked up and found that the mechanism on the Shu Road had been opened. …opened??? "Turtle, someone broke into the formation?!"
Several Jiange disciples were so shocked that they even spoke in the Shu dialect. They looked at the figure on the plank road who had already started to move forward along the plank road with a confused look on their faces, and suddenly became panic-stricken. "Quick, find someone... to see what's going on with that person?" Wang Rong, a four-star swordsmith and disciple of Jian Ge, was originally sent here to help the abbot of Wan Jian City's Ming Jian Platform with the registration for the Ming Jian Conference, but he didn't expect things to turn out like this... Apart from the disciples of Jian Ge, few outsiders dare to take the Shu Road. The road to Shu is difficult, harder than ascending to the sky... This is no joke. In addition to the steepness itself, there are also various mechanisms and formations arranged in the Sword Pavilion. The Sword Pavilion is reserved for its own disciples to study sword intent and formations. It is highly targeted and ordinary people cannot cope with it.
